−Removed: Our Zedge app (which is named “Zedge Wallpapers”
−Removed: in the App Store) offers a wide array of mobile personalization content including wallpapers, video wallpapers, ringtones, and notification
−Removed: sounds, and is available both in Google Play and the App Store.
−Removed: As of July 31, 2024, our Zedge App had been installed nearly 674 million
−Removed: times since inception and, over the past two fiscal years, has had between 26.1 million and 32.2 million monthly active users (“MAU”),
−Removed: ending with 26.1 million MAU as of July 31, 2024.
−Removed: MAU is a key performance indicator (“KPI”) for our Zedge app that captures
−Removed: the number of unique users that used our Zedge App during the final 30 days of the relevant period.
−Removed: Our platform allows creators to upload
−Removed: content to our marketplace and avail it to our users either for free or, via ‘Zedge Premium,’ the section of our marketplace
−Removed: where we offer premium content for purchase.
−Removed: In turn, our users utilize the content to personalize their phones and express their individuality.
−Removed: In fiscal 2023, we introduced pAInt, a generative
−Removed: AI wallpaper maker in the Zedge App.
−Removed: A generative AI wallpaper maker is an implementation of artificial intelligence software that can
−Removed: create images from text descriptions.
−Removed: To interface with a generative AI image maker, a user enters a text description of the image they
−Removed: want to create, and the software generates an image based on that description.
−Removed: In addition, we upgraded Zedge+, our paid subscription
−Removed: offering by bundling together an ad-free experience with value adds making the offering more compelling.
−Removed: We often refer to our freemium ringtones and
−Removed: wallpapers, our subscription offering, the functionality for creators to market their products and ancillary offering and features both
−Removed: in our Zedge App and website, as our Zedge Marketplace.
−Removed: The Zedge Marketplace’s monetization stack
−Removed: consists of advertising revenue generated when users view advertisements when using the Zedge App (and the related functionality under
−Removed: the zedge.net website), the in-app sale of Zedge Credits, our virtual currency, that is used to purchase Zedge Premium content, and a
−Removed: paid-subscription offering that provides an ad-free experience to users that purchase a monthly or annual subscription.
−Removed: In April 2023,
−Removed: we introduced a subscription tier in the iOS version of the app.
−Removed: As of July 31, 2024, we had approximately 669,0000 active subscribers.
−Removed: In April 2022, we acquired GuruShots Ltd, a recognized
−Removed: category leader focused on gamifying the photography vertical.
−Removed: GuruShots offers a platform spanning iOS, Android, and the web that provides
−Removed: a fun, educational and structured way for amateur photographers to compete in a wide variety of contests showcasing their photos while
−Removed: gaining recognition with votes, badges, and awards.
−Removed: We estimate that the total addressable market of amateur photographers using their
−Removed: smartphones to take and publicly share artistic photos is 30-40 million people per month and that the market is still in its infancy.
−Removed: Every month, GuruShots stages more than 300 competitions that result in players uploading in excess of 670,000 photographs and casting
−Removed: close to 3.2 billion “perceived votes,” which are calculated by multiplying the number of votes that each player casts by
−Removed: a weighting factor based on various factors related to that user.
−Removed: To improve engagement, GuruShots has adopted a set of retention dynamics
−Removed: focused on individual, team and community dynamics that create a sense of belonging, inspiration, recognition, improvement, and competition.
−Removed: GuruShots utilizes a ‘Free-to-Play’
−Removed: business model and generates revenue through in-app purchases of virtual currency.
−Removed: Players can use this currency to unlock competitions
−Removed: or gain an edge by purchasing resources and participating in additional gameplay.
−Removed: Over the past seven years, the monthly average paying
−Removed: player spend has increased in excess of 9.9% annually to more than $50.9 per player.
−Removed: In fiscal 2024, we revamped GuruShots’
−Removed: customer onboarding experience by guiding new players through simplified photo competitions of limited size and duration.
−Removed: was designed to enhance the gaming experience for new players by increasing their potential for winning and providing immediate gratification.
−Removed: The new onboarding has shown improvements in engagement, retention, and revenue from new users.
−Removed: In addition, we migrated to a coin-based
−Removed: economy with multiple currencies in order to enable more players to earn and spend their currency on in-game resources.
−Removed: We market GuruShots to prospective players, primarily
−Removed: via paid user acquisition channels, and utilize a host of creative formats including static and video ads in order to promote the game.
−Removed: Our marketing team invests material resources in analyzing all attributes of a campaign ranging from, among others, the creative assets,
−Removed: offer acquisition channel and platform (i.e., iOS, Android, and web), with the goal of determining whether a specific campaign is likely
−Removed: to yield a profitable customer.
−Removed: When we unearth a successful combination of these variables we scale up until we experience diminishing
−Removed: Ultimately, we believe that the efforts we are making to advance the product coupled with the investment in user acquisition
−Removed: can significantly increase GuruShots’ player base.
−Removed: Since the start of fiscal 2025 Cost per Install
−Removed: (CPI) have trended down considerably leading us to believe that our efforts are yielding fruit.
−Removed: It’s too early to say with conviction
−Removed: whether this trend is sustainable as we scale user acquisition and whether these users will provide sufficient long-term ROI;
−Removed: we believe that these early results are encouraging.
−Removed: Beyond our commitment to growing both the Zedge
−Removed: App and GuruShots on a standalone basis, we believe that there are many potential synergies that we can capitalize on that exist between
−Removed: the two businesses.
−Removed: Specifically, we plan to enable GuruShots players to become Zedge Premium artists and sell their photos to our audience
−Removed: of 25+ million MAU (as of July 31, 2024) as standard digital images.
−Removed: In addition, we are benefitting from the experience that the GuruShots
−Removed: team possesses in gamifying the Zedge App.
−Removed: We believe that successful gamification can contribute to increasing engagement, retention,
−Removed: and lifetime value, all critical KPIs for our business.
−Removed: Longer term, we believe that there are complementary content verticals that lend
−Removed: themselves to gamification.
−Removed: One example is our hybrid casual title, ‘AI Art Master,’ which has been in soft-launch in the
−Removed: Philippines, Poland, and India, that enables players to create generative AI images and compete in themed-based competitions with these
−Removed: Based on analyzing user data and performing extensive user testing, we will determine whether to refine the user experience and
−Removed: scale or cease development of this title.
−Removed: In August 2021, we acquired Emojipedia Pty Ltd,
−Removed: the world’s leading authority dedicated to providing up-to-date and well-researched emoji definitions, information, and news, as
−Removed: well as World Emoji Day and the annual World Emoji Awards.
−Removed: In July 2024, Emojipedia received approximately 37.6 million monthly page
−Removed: views and has approximately 9.6 million monthly active users as of July 31, 2024 of which approximately 46.7% are located in well-developed
−Removed: It is the top resource for all things emoji, offering insights into data and cultural trends.
−Removed: As a member of the Unicode Consortium,
−Removed: the standards body responsible for approving new emojis, Emojipedia works alongside major emoji creators including Apple, Google, Meta,
−Removed: and X, formerly known as Twitter.
−Removed: We believe that Emojipedia provides growth potential
−Removed: to the Zedge App, and it was immediately accretive to earnings post acquisition in August 2021.
−Removed: In the past year, we have made many changes
−Removed: to Emojipedia including overhauling its backend, redesigning the Emojipedia website, and introducing new entertainment-focused features
−Removed: We will continue to enhance this offering and are exploring additional new features which use artificial intelligence, some
−Removed: of which will be released before the end of the calendar year.
−Removed: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
−Removed: Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying
−Removed: notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S.
−Removed: The preparation
−Removed: of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
−Removed: revenue and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
−Removed: Critical accounting policies are those that require
−Removed: application of management’s most subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of matters that are inherently uncertain and
−Removed: may change in subsequent periods.
−Removed: Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed
−Removed: to be reasonable under the circumstances.
−Removed: Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
−Removed: The methods, estimates, interpretations, and
−Removed: judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies can have a significant impact on the results that we report in our
−Removed: consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: The SEC considers an entity’s most critical accounting policies to be those policies that are
−Removed: both most important to the portrayal of the entity’s financial condition and results of operations and those that require the entity’s
−Removed: most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make assumptions and estimates about matters that
−Removed: are inherently uncertain.
−Removed: We believe that the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments, estimates
−Removed: and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

+Added: We have cut costs at GuruShots,
+Added: including as part of the restructuring implemented in January 2025, and have materially scaled back on PUA for the unit.
+Added: we are developing a plan, referred to as GuruShots 2.0, to revamp GuruShots’ offering in order to put it on a growth trajectory

+Added: To date, we have introduced a fun and comprehensive onboarding experience to draw new users into the gameplay with ease and

+Added: Historically,

+Added: As part of the restructuring plan, we have significantly reduced PUA investment

+Added: It is the top resource for all things emoji, offering insights
+Added: into data and cultural trends.
+Added: its acquisition in August 2021, Emojipedia was immediately accretive to earnings.
+Added: In the past year, we have made many changes to Emojipedia
+Added: including an AI-powered emoji sticker generator tool as well as an extensive emoji sticker library.
+Added: late September 2025, Google released an update to its Search Engine Results Page (SERP) enabling users to copy emojis directly from search
+Added: results rather than being directed to third-party sites such as Emojipedia.

+Added: now return emoji results in response to user queries.
+Added: While it is too early to accurately quantify the impact of these changes on Emojipedia’

Revenue is recognized once the virtual goods are sold.
−Removed: GuruShots monitors
−Removed: its analysis of customer play behavior on a quarterly basis.
−Removed: As discussed above,
−Removed: GuruShots concluded that revenue related to the promise of enhancing users’ gaming experience through in-game resource purchases
−Removed: should be recognized ratably over the period of benefit period (i.e., the period over which the enhanced gaming experience is provided).
−Removed: However, for practical reasons, GuruShots does not defer the portion of revenue attributable to future uses of resources as of any given
−Removed: balance sheet date.
−Removed: This is due to the duration of the enhanced gaming experience that is provided being, in substantially all of the
−Removed: cases, and applying the portfolio approach (as GuruShots reasonably expects that the effects on the financial statements of applying
−Removed: ASC 606 guidance to the portfolio would not differ materially from applying ASC 606 guidance to the individual contracts), a very short
−Removed: time frame ranging from a few hours to less than two weeks.
−Removed: Therefore, the result of recognizing the related revenues at the point in
−Removed: time which user first consumes the respective resource would yield a result that is not substantially different then ratable recognition

−Removed: Accordingly, revenue is recognized once the virtual goods are sold.
−Removed: Gross Versus Net Revenue Recognition
−Removed: We report revenue on a gross or net basis based

−Removed: Certain advertising arrangements that are directly between
−Removed: us and advertisers are recognized on a gross basis equal to the price paid to us by the customer since we are the primary obligor and
−Removed: we determine the price.
−Removed: Any third-party costs related to such direct relationships are recognized as direct cost of revenues.
−Removed: GuruShots is primarily responsible for providing

−Removed: We test for recoverability based on the projected undiscounted cash flows to be derived from such asset.
−Removed: If the projected
−Removed: undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, we will record an impairment loss, if any, based on the
−Removed: difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the asset.
−Removed: We generally measure fair value by considering sale
−Removed: prices for similar assets or by discounting estimated future cash flows from such asset using an appropriate discount rate.
−Removed: projections and fair value estimates require significant estimates and assumptions by management.
−Removed: Should the estimates and assumptions
−Removed: prove to be incorrect, we may be required to record impairments in future periods and such impairments could be material.
−Removed: Intangible assets are carried at cost, less accumulated
−Removed: amortization, unless a determination has been made that their value has been impaired.
−Removed: Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line
−Removed: basis over their estimated useful lives of between five to fifteen years.
−Removed: We review identifiable amortizable intangible assets to be
−Removed: held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable.
−Removed: Determination of recoverability is based on the lowest level of identifiable estimated undiscounted cash flows resulting from use of
−Removed: the asset and its eventual disposition.
−Removed: Measurement of any impairment loss is based on the excess of the carrying value of the asset
−Removed: over its fair value.

We recorded $11.9 million impairment charges in Q2 of our fiscal year ended July
−Removed: Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price
−Removed: and related costs over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the business acquired.
−Removed: Under ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill
−Removed: and Other , goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested for impairment annually, or if certain circumstances indicate a possible
−Removed: impairment may exist.
−Removed: We test goodwill for impairment on the first

−Removed: Goodwill is assigned to our reporting units, which are our operating segments, or components of an operating segment, that constitute
−Removed: a business for which discrete financial information is available, and for which segment management regularly reviews the operating results.
−Removed: During the annual impairment review process we have the option to first perform a qualitative assessment (commonly referred to as “step
−Removed: zero”) over relative events and circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting
−Removed: unit is less than its carrying value or to perform a quantitative assessment (“step one”) where we estimate the fair value
−Removed: of each reporting unit using primarily a market capitalization approach.
−Removed: We would recognize an impairment charge for the
−Removed: amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value;
−Removed: however, the loss recognized would not exceed the
−Removed: total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
−Removed: Additionally, we consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill

platform or new product or service.
−Removed: During the Planning Stage, we charge all costs to expense as incurred.
−Removed: During the Application and Infrastructure Development
−Removed: Stage, we begin to capitalize costs when the project has been properly authorized and we determine that completion is probable.
−Removed: project is subsequently cancelled prior to placement in service, costs that have been capitalized to date will be reviewed for potential
−Removed: Capitalization ceases no later than the point at which a computer software project is substantially complete and ready for
−Removed: its intended use.
−Removed: Amortization, which is generally over three years, begins for each project when the code is ready for use, whether
−Removed: or not it is actually placed in service at that time (an exception being if the project’s functionality completely depends on the
−Removed: completion of another project, in which case, amortization begins when that other project is ready for use).
−Removed: During the Post-Implementation/Operating Stage,
−Removed: we expense training costs and maintenance costs as incurred.
−Removed: However, upgrades and enhancements, defined as modifications to existing
−Removed: internal-use software that result in additional functionality (modifications to enable the software to perform tasks that it was previously
−Removed: incapable of performing, normally requiring new software specifications and perhaps a change to all or part of the existing software
−Removed: specifications) are treated as though they were new projects, and are assessed utilizing the same stages and criteria on a project-by-project
−Removed: As such, internal costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements are expensed or capitalized based on the requirements noted above,
−Removed: while costs incurred for maintenance are expensed as incurred.
−Removed: These projects are tracked individually, such that the beginning and ending
−Removed: of the capitalization can be appropriately established, as well as the amounts capitalized therein.
−Removed: Amortization of these costs is included in depreciation
−Removed: and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
−Removed: Capitalized Software and Technology Development Costs-Software
−Removed: to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed
−Removed: We expense research and development costs incurred
−Removed: in the process of software development until technological feasibility has been established for the product.
−Removed: Once technological feasibility
−Removed: has been established, software costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers.
−Removed: Costs incurred
−Removed: from the time that the product is available for general release to customers are expensed as incurred.
−Removed: Costs related to upgrades and
−Removed: enhancements are capitalized only if they result in added functionality or marketability of the original product.
−Removed: The amortization of these capitalized costs begins
−Removed: when a product is available for general release to customers and is computed on a product-by-product basis at a rate not less than straight-line
−Removed: basis over the product’s estimated economic life.
−Removed: At each balance sheet date, we compare the unamortized capitalized costs to the
−Removed: net realizable value of that product and write off the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs of that product exceed its net
−Removed: realizable value.
−Removed: Amortization of these costs is included in depreciation

−Removed: Stock-Based Compensation
−Removed: We account for our share-based compensation arrangements

−Removed: Compensation cost
−Removed: for awards is recognized using the straight-line method over the vesting period or the graded vesting method if awards with market or

−Removed: We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities
−Removed: for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts
−Removed: of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
−Removed: A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not
−Removed: that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
−Removed: The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the
−Removed: generation of future taxable income during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible.
−Removed: We consider the scheduled
−Removed: reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in its assessment of a valuation
−Removed: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
−Removed: in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
−Removed: The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
−Removed: change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date of such change.
−Removed: We use a two-step approach for recognizing and
−Removed: measuring tax benefits taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
−Removed: We determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position
−Removed: will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits
−Removed: of the position.
−Removed: In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, We presume that the position
−Removed: will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.
−Removed: Tax positions that meet the
−Removed: more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of tax benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial
−Removed: The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon
−Removed: ultimate settlement.
−Removed: Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements
−Removed: will generally result in one or more of the following:
−Removed: an increase in a liability for income taxes payable, a reduction of an income
−Removed: tax refund receivable, a reduction in a deferred tax asset, or an increase in a deferred tax liability.
−Removed: We classify interest and penalties on income
−Removed: taxes as a component of income tax expense included in the provision for (benefit from) income taxes line item in our consolidated statements
−Removed: of operations and comprehensive loss.
−Removed: Trends and Uncertainties
−Removed: Current Economic Conditions
−Removed: As a majority of our users and our
−Removed: day-to-day operations including software developments and sales and marketings occurs outside of the United States, we are exposed
−Removed: to and impacted by global macroeconomic factors, U.S.
−Removed: and foreign government policies and foreign exchange fluctuations.
−Removed: uncertainty surrounding macroeconomic factors in the U.S., and globally, characterized by the supply chain environment, inflationary
−Removed: pressure, and workforce reductions.
−Removed: We believe these macroeconomic conditions coupled with the global political climate and unrest,
−Removed: including the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, will have a significant impact on advertising spend which accounts for approximately 70% of
−Removed: our revenue in fiscal 2024.
−Removed: In addition, although we currently do not believe inflation in the costs and expenses will have a
−Removed: material impact on our results of operations, it is possible that elevated inflation could increase our direct cost of revenues
−Removed: and/or operating expenses and reduce our gross profit and net income.
−Removed: The Israel-Hamas War
−Removed: Given our operations in Israel, the impact of
−Removed: economic, political, geopolitical, and military conditions in the region directly affects us, including conflicts involving missile strikes,
−Removed: infiltrations, and terrorism.
−Removed: Notably, on October 7, 2023, Hamas launched attacks in southern Israel, resulting in casualties and military
−Removed: In addition, Hezbollah, another terrorist organization based in Lebanon has been indiscriminately shelling Israel since October
−Removed: The extent and duration of this conflict remain uncertain, potentially involving other groups.
−Removed: Israel’s response led to
−Removed: the mobilization of reservists, affecting our workforce.
−Removed: Prior to this, changes in Israel’s judicial system had already raised
−Removed: concerns about the business environment, compounded by recent events, potentially impacting foreign investment, currency fluctuations,
−Removed: credit ratings, interest rates, and security markets.
−Removed: Furthermore, regional political unrest and threats from extremist groups, notably
−Removed: Iran, pose additional risks.
−Removed: Management and our Board of Directors are closely monitoring the situation in Israel to address potential
−Removed: business disruptions and implications.
−Removed: Key Performance Indicators
−Removed: Our results of operations discussion includes
−Removed: disclosure of four key performance indicators - Monthly Active Users (MAU) and Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User (ARPMAU) for our
−Removed: Zedge App and Monthly Active Payers (MAP) and Average Revenue Per Monthly Active Payer (ARMAP) for GuruShots.
−Removed: Zedge App’s MAU and ARPMAU
−Removed: MAU is a key performance indicator that captures
−Removed: the number of unique users that used our Zedge App in the last thirty days of the relevant period, which is important to understanding
−Removed: the size of the user base for our Zedge App which is a significant driver of revenue.
−Removed: Changes and trends in MAU are useful for measuring
−Removed: the general health of our business, gauging both present and potential customers’ experience, assessing the efficacy of product
−Removed: improvements and marketing campaigns and overall user engagement.
−Removed: ARPMAU is valuable because it provides insight into how well we monetize
−Removed: our users and the changes and trends in ARPMAU are indications of how effective our monetization investments are.

+Added: the Planning Stage, we charge all costs to expense as incurred.
+Added: the Application and Infrastructure Development Stage, we begin to capitalize costs when the project has been properly authorized and
+Added: we determine that completion is probable.
+Added: If a project is subsequently cancelled prior to placement in service, costs that have been
+Added: capitalized to date will be reviewed for potential impairment.
+Added: Capitalization ceases no later than the point at which a computer software
+Added: project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.
+Added: Amortization, which is generally over three years, begins for each
+Added: project when the code is ready for use, whether or not it is actually placed in service at that time (an exception being if the project’s
+Added: functionality completely depends on the completion of another project, in which case, amortization begins when that other project is
+Added: ready for use).
+Added: the Post-Implementation/Operating Stage, we expense training costs and maintenance costs as incurred.
+Added: However, upgrades and enhancements,
+Added: defined as modifications to existing internal-use software that result in additional functionality (modifications to enable the software
+Added: to perform tasks that it was previously incapable of performing, normally requiring new software specifications and perhaps a change
+Added: to all or part of the existing software specifications) are treated as though they were new projects, and are assessed utilizing the
+Added: same stages and criteria on a project-by-project basis.
+Added: As such, internal costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements are expensed or
+Added: capitalized based on the requirements noted above, while costs incurred for maintenance are expensed as incurred.
+Added: These projects are
+Added: tracked individually, such that the beginning and ending of the capitalization can be appropriately established, as well as the amounts
+Added: capitalized therein.
+Added: of these costs is included in depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
+Added: Software and Technology Development Costs-Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed
+Added: expense research and development costs incurred in the process of software development until technological feasibility has been established
+Added: for the product.
+Added: Once technological feasibility has been established, software costs are capitalized until the product is available for
+Added: general release to customers.
+Added: Costs incurred from the time that the product is available for general release to customers are expensed
+Added: Costs related to upgrades and enhancements are capitalized only if they result in added functionality or marketability of
+Added: the original product.
+Added: amortization of these capitalized costs begins when a product is available for general release to customers and is computed on a product-by-product
+Added: basis at a rate not less than straight-line basis over the product’s estimated economic life.
+Added: At each balance sheet date, we compare
+Added: the unamortized capitalized costs to the net realizable value of that product and write off the amount by which the unamortized capitalized
+Added: costs of that product exceed its net realizable value.
+Added: of these costs is included in depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
+Added: evaluate these long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances arise that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be
+Added: The Company’s strategic reassessment of GuruShots’ operations in connection with the restructuring initiative
+Added: resulted in a $0.8 million impairment of capitalized software and technology development costs which is recorded in the Company’s

+Added: account for our share-based compensation arrangements in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC
+Added: 718”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and
+Added: directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date.
+Added: Compensation cost for awards is recognized using the straight-line method
+Added: over the vesting period or the graded vesting method if awards with market or performance conditions include graded vesting features
+Added: or if an award includes both a service condition and a market or performance condition.
+Added: Stock-based compensation is included in selling,
+Added: general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
+Added: Restructuring
+Added: restructuring charges incurred by the Company in fiscal 2025 consist primarily of cash expenditures for compensation and severance payments,
+Added: employee benefits, payroll taxes and related facilities restructuring costs associated with the Company’s workforce reduction announced
+Added: (and substantially implemented) in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
+Added: Employee termination benefits are recognized as a liability at
+Added: estimated fair value, at the time of communication to employees, unless future service is required, in which case the costs are recognized
+Added: ratably over the future service period.
+Added: Ongoing termination benefits are recognized as a liability at estimated fair value when the amount
+Added: of such benefits is probable and reasonably estimable.
+Added: Charges related to facilities restructuring actions are comprised of costs related
+Added: to early termination of the lease agreement and impairment of the right-of-use asset in connection with the abandonment of the property.
+Added: recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the consolidated
+Added: financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
+Added: A valuation allowance is provided
+Added: when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
+Added: The ultimate realization of deferred
+Added: tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible.
+Added: We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies
+Added: in its assessment of a valuation allowance.
+Added: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to
+Added: apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
+Added: The effect on deferred
+Added: tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date of such change.
+Added: use a two-step approach for recognizing and measuring tax benefits taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
+Added: We determine whether
+Added: it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
+Added: processes, based on the technical merits of the position.
+Added: In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition
+Added: threshold, we presume that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant
+Added: Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of tax benefit
+Added: to recognize in the consolidated financial statements.
+Added: The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater
+Added: than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
+Added: Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts
+Added: recognized in the consolidated financial statements will generally result in one or more of the following:
+Added: an increase in a liability
+Added: for income taxes payable, a reduction of an income tax refund receivable, a reduction in a deferred tax asset, or an increase in a deferred
+Added: tax liability.
+Added: classify interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense included in the provision for (benefit from) income
