Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses at the date of the financial statements. Generally, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions in accordance with U.S. GAAP that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the financial position and results of operations.
Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical accounting policies and estimates include those related to:
•
revenue recognition; and
•
acquisitions and related acquired intangible assets and goodwill.
Revenue recognition
We generate revenue primarily from sales and rentals of our products. Our products consist of our proprietary line of oxygen concentrators and related accessories. Other revenue primarily comes from service contracts, replacement parts and freight revenue for product shipments.
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue from product sales is generally recognized upon shipment of the product but is deferred for certain transactions when control has not yet transferred to the customer.
61
Our product is generally sold with a right of return and we may provide other incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. Returns and incentives are estimated at the time sales revenue is recognized. The provisions for estimated returns are made based on known claims and estimates of additional returns based on historical data and future expectations. Sales revenue incentives within our contracts are estimated based on the most likely amounts expected on the related sales transaction and recorded as a reduction to revenue at the time of sale in accordance with the terms of the contract. Accordingly, revenue is recognized net of allowances for estimated returns and incentives.
For a fixed price, we also offer a lifetime warranty for direct-to-consumer sales for our oxygen concentrators. The revenue is allocated to the distinct lifetime warranty performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price, or SSP, method. We have vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price for our equipment. To determine the selling price of the lifetime warranty, we use the best estimate of the SSP for the distinct performance obligation, as the lifetime warranty is neither separately priced nor is the selling price available through third-party evidence. To estimate the selling price associated with the lifetime warranties, management considers the profit margins of service revenue, the average estimated cost of lifetime warranties and the price of extended warranties. Revenue from the distinct lifetime warranty is deferred after the delivery of the equipment and recognized based on an estimated mortality rate over five years, which is the estimated performance period of the contract based on the average patient life expectancy.
Revenue from the sale of our repair services is recognized when the performance obligations are satisfied, and collection of the receivables is probable. Other revenue from the sale of replacement parts is generally recognized when product is shipped to customers.
Freight revenue consists of fees associated with the deployment of products internationally and domestically when expedited freight options are requested or when minimum order quantities are not met. Freight revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of the product but is deferred if control has not yet transferred to the customer. Shipping and handling costs for sold products and rental assets shipped to our customers are included on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as part of cost of sales revenue and cost of rental revenue, respectively.
The payment terms and conditions of customer contracts vary by customer type and the products and services offered. For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer. The timing of sales revenue recognition, billing and cash collection results in billed accounts receivable and deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheet.
Contract liabilities primarily consist of deferred revenue related to lifetime warranties on direct-to-consumer sales revenue when cash payments are received in advance of services performed under the contract. The contract with the customer states the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchase.
We elected to apply the practical expedient in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 606—Revenue Recognition and did not evaluate contracts of one year or less for the existence of a significant financing component. We do not expect any revenue to be recognized over a multi-year period with the exception of revenue related to lifetime warranties.
We recognize equipment rental revenue over the non-cancelable lease term, which is one month, less estimated adjustments, per ASC 842—Leases. We have separate contracts with each patient that are not subject to a master lease agreement with any payor. We evaluate the individual lease contracts at lease inception and the start of each monthly renewal period to determine if there is reasonable assurance that the bargain renewal option associated with the potential capped free rental period would be exercised. Historically, the exercise of such bargain renewal option is not reasonably assured at lease inception and most subsequent monthly lease renewal periods. If we determine that the reasonable assurance threshold for an individual patient is met at lease inception or at a monthly lease renewal period, such determination would impact the bargain renewal period for an individual lease. We would first consider the lease classification (sales-type lease or operating lease) and then appropriately recognize or defer rental revenue over the lease term, which may include a portion of the capped rental period. To date, we have not deferred any amounts associated with the capped rental period. Amounts related to the capped rental period have not been material in the periods presented.
62
The lease term begins on the date products are shipped to patients and are recorded at amounts estimated to be received under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicare, private payors, and Medicaid. Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which we operate, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application, claim denial or account review. Accounts receivables are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts which provides for those accounts from which payment is not expected to be received, although product was delivered and revenue was earned. Upon determination that an account is uncollectible, it is written-off and charged to the allowance. Amounts billed but not earned due to the timing of the billing cycle are deferred and recognized in revenue on a straight-line basis over the monthly billing period. For example, if the first day of the billing period does not fall on the first of the month, then a portion of the monthly billing period will fall in the subsequent month and the related revenue and cost would be deferred based on the service days in the following month.
Rental revenue is recognized as earned, less estimated adjustments. Revenue not billed at the end of the period is reviewed for the likelihood of collections and accrued. The rental revenue stream is not guaranteed, and payment will cease if the patient no longer needs oxygen or returns the equipment. Revenue recognized is at full estimated allowable reimbursement rates. Rental revenue is earned for that month if the patient is on service on the first day of the 30-day period commencing on the recurring date of service for a particular claim regardless of whether there is a change in condition or death after that date. In the event that a third-party payor does not accept the claim for payment, the consumer is ultimately responsible for payment for the products and services. We have determined that the balances are collectable at the time of revenue recognition because the patient signs a notice of financial responsibility outlining their obligations.
Included in rental revenue are unbilled amounts that were earned but not able to be billed for various reasons. The criteria for recognizing revenue had been met as of period-end, but there were specific reasons why we were unable to bill Medicare and private insurance for these amounts. As a result, we create an unbilled rental revenue accrual based on these earned revenues not billed based on a percentage of unbilled amounts and historical trends and estimates of future collectability.
Acquisitions and related acquired intangible assets and goodwill
The purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. To the extent the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, such excess is allocated to goodwill. We may adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation, as necessary, for up to one year after the acquisition closing date if we obtain more information regarding asset valuations and liabilities assumed.
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of October 1. Interim testing of goodwill for impairment is also required whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or asset below its carrying amount. As a result of a decrease in our public stock price that caused our market capitalization to fall below its carrying amount (stockholders' equity) during July 2023 and was noted by management to be more than temporary as the quarter progressed, a quantitative analysis was required to be performed during the quarter ended September 30, 2023. We used a discounted cash flow analysis based on Level 3 inputs and determined that the goodwill carrying amount exceeded its fair value and, as such, an impairment charge of $32.9 million was incurred in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Total accumulated impairment losses were $32.9 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2024. As a result of the Tidal Assist® Ventilator technology intangible asset disposal in 2022, a quantitative analysis was required to be performed as of December 31, 2022 and concluded that there was no impairment.
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives and are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Technology and customer relationship intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method.

Recent accounting pronouncements
Refer to Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part IV, Item 15 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion.
Macroeconomic environment
While we have worked to improve our global supply chain, challenges and potential disruptions still exist. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, increases in cost and limited availability of certain raw materials, components, and other inputs necessary to manufacture and distribute our products due to constraints and inflation within the global supply chain, as well as increases in wage costs and the cost and time to distribute our products. Uncertainty around inflationary pressures, interest rates, monetary policy, and changes in tariffs and tax laws could potentially cause new, or exacerbate existing, economic challenges that we may face, including the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on our results of operations, or result in an economic downturn or recession, which could negatively impact our business operations and results. Existing and future potential geopolitical dynamics may create economic, supply chain, energy, and other challenges, including disruptions to business operations, which has impacted, and may in the future negatively impact our business. In particular, international conflicts could create instability, have and may further result in sanctions, tariffs, and other measures that restrict international trade and may negatively affect our business operations and results.
For additional information on risk factors that could impact our results, please refer to the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
We are a medical technology company that primarily develops, manufactures, and markets innovative respiratory market products, including our portable oxygen therapy solutions for patients with chronic respiratory conditions as well as our Simeox product for airway clearance treatment. Our leading portfolio of innovative POCs is designed to deliver high output ratio-to-weight, meaningful sound suppression and has among the longest run times in the industry so that we can meet the needs of patients across a variety of disease states. We are positioned in the market as both a medical technology company and as a home medical equipment provider that is accredited in all 50 states in the United States with a significant patient, prescriber and provider reach. Our products are sold in the United States through direct patient and prescriber sales, as well as resellers and home medical equipment companies, and internationally through distributors and medical equipment companies.
We derive the majority of our revenue from the sale and rental of our Inogen One and Rove systems and related accessories to patients, insurance carriers, home healthcare providers, resellers, and distributors, including our private label collaborator. We sell multiple configurations of our Inogen One®, Rove and Inogen At Home systems with various batteries, accessories, warranties, power cords, and language settings. Our goal is to design, build, and market oxygen solutions that redefine how long-term oxygen therapy is delivered.
To accomplish this goal, we intend to:
•
Expand our domestic HME provider and reseller network. We remain focused on our domestic business-to-business partnerships, including relationships with distributors, key accounts, resellers, our private label collaborator, and traditional HME providers. We offer patient-preferred, low total cost of ownership products to help providers convert their businesses to a non-delivery POC business model. The U.S. market represents a main opportunity for growth as we believe that the POC adoption is still in a low penetration rate.
•
Increase international business-to-business adoption. We continue to believe there is a sizable international market opportunity, particularly in Europe where there is existing oxygen reimbursement for respiratory conditions. In order to take advantage of these international markets, we have partnered with distributors who serve key customers in those markets. We additionally have an Inogen base of operations for sales and customer service in the Netherlands along with sales representatives based in focus European countries, and use a contract manufacturer, Foxconn, located in the Czech Republic to support the majority of our European sales volumes. We are also focused on expanding in the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America where we have added sales representatives to set up new distributors in promising markets.
64
•
Improve our domestic direct-to-consumer sales and prescriber sales teams and increase productivity. We are continuing to focus on the patient first initiative, which involves cross-training of sales representatives to execute cash sales and insurance rental. Additionally, we expect to continue to focus on increased productivity driven by improved sales management discipline, insights-informed tools, and optimized patient lead generation with a downsized direct-to-consumer sales team.
•
Optimize our rental revenues. We continue to evolve our operating model to focus the enhanced sales teams to drive increased rental revenue by establishing relationships with the prescriber through a consistent cadence of contact. We continue to evaluate our hospital pilot program, which targets hospitals and practitioners to access patients earlier in their care pathway.
•
Invest in our product offerings to develop innovative products and expand clinical evidence. We incurred $21.6 million, $20.8 million and $21.9 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, in research and development expenses, and we intend to continue to make similar investments in the foreseeable future.
We launched the Inogen® Rove 4TM, our latest portable oxygen concentrator, in the U.S. and EU markets in October 2024, as well as in the UK in December 2024. The Inogen Rove 4 weighs 2.9 pounds and produces 840 ml per minute of oxygen output with quiet operations at 39 dBA and long battery life at 3 hours for a single battery, 4 hours and 15 minutes on our new intermediate battery, and up to 5 hours and 45 minutes for a double battery, as well as improvements to provide ease-of-use and improvements to design in compliance with MDR standards. The Inogen Rove 4 is our first POC to launch with three battery options.
The Inogen Rove 4 has an 8-year expected service life. The 8-year expected service life also extends to the Inogen One G5® and Inogen® Rove 6TM portable oxygen concentrators. We launched the Inogen One G5in 2019. The Inogen One G5is similar to the product specifications of the Inogen Rove 6. We estimate that the InogenRove 6and Inogen One G5are each suitable for over 90% of ambulatory long-term oxygen therapy patients based on our analysis of the patients who have contacted us and their clinical needs.
Inogen Connect, our connectivity platform is available on our Inogen Rove 4, Inogen One G4®, Inogen One G5, and Inogen Rove 6 products in the United States and Canada, is compatible with Apple and Android platforms and includes patient features such as purity status, battery life, product support functions, notification alerts, and remote software updates.
We plan to also continue to invest in clinical studies to evaluate expected improvements in clinical, economic and patient reported outcomes associated with the use of our products as part of our efforts to drive payor and prescriber advocacy for our products.
•
Expand our product offerings and indications for use. We are focused on expanding new products that drive benefits to patients, prescribers and our customers with a clinically relevant pipeline. These products would include innovations that strengthen our offerings in COPD, as well as future innovations that differentiate beyond devices to allow patients and clinicians to better manage respiratory disease with advanced portable oxygen concentrators with digital health value added services, expansion of use to hypercapnia, shortness-of-breath, and to other related disease indications.
Our Simeox product is a technology-enabled airway clearance and mucus management device predominantly aimed at serving patients with bronchiectasis which is a condition that presents as the lung’s bronchi are damaged and widened in patients with cystic fibrosis or COPD. Simeox is used in pulmonary rehabilitation centers as well as at home. Simeox has been cleared under CE mark in the EU and is currently being sold in Europe and several other markets. In addition, we obtained 510(k) clearance for Simeox in December 2024 and plan to leverage our commercial infrastructure and capabilities to market the device in the United States, while continuing to market it in the other geographies. We intend to commercialize Simeox through the purchase of the product initially, followed by recurring sales of device disposables. We will begin efforts to obtain reimbursement coverage in the first quarter of 2025 for the Simeox product in the U.S.

Results of operations
Comparison of years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
Revenue
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Sales revenue increased $27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 10.8% from the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to higher international and domestic business-to-business sales. We sold approximately 157,500 oxygen systems during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to approximately 130,500 oxygen systems sold during the year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 20.7%.
Rental revenue decreased $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, or a decrease of 11.1% from the prior year. The decrease in rental revenue was primarily related to a higher mix of lower private-payor reimbursement rates.
Years ended
(dollar amounts in thousands) December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Domestic business-to-business sales increased 26.2% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the result of increased demand from new customers and resellers.
International business-to-business sales increased 31.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in demand from our partners in Europe and new customers. In the year ended December 31, 2024, sales in Europe as a percentage of total international sales revenue slightly decreased to 85.0% versus 85.3% in 2023.
Domestic direct-to-consumer sales decreased 18.8% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by lower volume due to lower sales representative headcount, partially offset by increased average selling prices versus the prior year.
Domestic direct-to-consumer rentals decreased 11.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily related to a higher mix of lower private-payor reimbursement rates.
66
Cost of revenue and gross profit
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Gross margin percentage - sales revenue 46.7 % 37.0 %
Gross margin percentage - rental revenue 43.3 % 52.7 %
Total gross margin percentage 46.1 % 40.1 %
Cost of sales revenue decreased $10.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 6.3%, due primarily to lower premiums paid for raw material components, partially offset by an increase in the numbers of systems sold. The year ended December 31, 2024 included $0.2 million of material cost premiums associated with open-market purchases of semiconductor chips used in our batteries and POCs compared to $14.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2023.
Cost of rental revenue increased $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 6.5%. The increase in cost of rental revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in service costs. Cost of rental revenue included $12.6 million of rental asset depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $12.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Gross margin on sales revenue increased to 46.7% for the year ended December 31, 2024 from 37.0% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to lower material cost premiums associated with open-market purchases of semiconductor chips used in our POCs and operational efficiencies, partially offset by a change in sales mix towards increased business-to-business sales. Total worldwide business-to-business sales revenue accounted for 72.0% of total sales revenue in the year ended December 31, 2024 versus 61.8% in the year ended December 31, 2023.
Gross margin on rental revenue decreased to 43.3% for the year ended December 31, 2024 from 52.7% for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to a higher mix shift of private-payor reimbursement, lower net revenue per rental patient as a result of a decrease in the percentage of patients billed compared to total patients on service, and higher service costs.
Research and development expense
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Research and development expense increased $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, representing an increase of 3.7%. This was due primarily to a $2.3 million increase in amortization costs of intangible assets related to the Physio-Assist acquisition, partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in product development costs.
67
Sales and marketing expense
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Sales and marketing expense decreased $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 3.8%. This was primarily due to decreases of $8.5 million in consulting fees, $1.9 million in dues, fees and licenses, and $1.6 million in credit card and financing fees, partially offset by an increase of $5.1 million in media and advertising costs, $1.5 million in personnel-related expenses, and $0.9 million in travel costs. In the year ended December 31, 2024, we spent $32.2 million in media and advertising costs versus $27.1 million in 2023.
General and administrative expense
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
General and administrative expense decreased $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, from the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 3.6%, primarily due to decreases of $3.8 million in the change in fair value of the earnout liability, $3.4 million in restructuring-related costs, $2.5 million in chief executive officer transition costs and $1.6 million in acquisition-related expenses. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $6.9 million in personnel-related expenses and $1.1 million in dues, fees and licenses.
Impairment charges
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
There were no impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2024. Impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2023 resulted from a drop in our public stock price, which resulted in impairment charges to goodwill.
Other income, net
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Total other income, net decreased $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 14.2%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.4 million in interest income due to the lower interest rate environment.
68
Income tax expense (benefit)
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Effective income tax rate 1.6 % -0.1 %
Income tax expense (benefit) decreased $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023. We continued to record a valuation allowance on the use of deferred tax assets in the current and prior periods. The decrease was attributable to foreign taxes.
Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to foreign taxes.
Net loss
Years ended December 31, Change 2024 vs. 2023 % of Revenue
Net loss decreased $66.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the year ended December 31, 2023, or a decrease of 65.0%. The decrease in net loss was primarily related to lower goodwill impairment, material cost reductions and higher sales revenue.
Comparison of years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022
A discussion of changes in our results of operations during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 has been omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-K but may be found in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2024, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference and which is available free of charge on the SECs website at www.sec.gov.
Liquidity and capital resources
As of December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $113.8 million, which consisted of highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we received $0.8 million, $1.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in proceeds related to stock option exercises and our employee stock purchase plan.
As of December 31, 2024, we had a financing receivable of $6.5 million, which consisted of $1.8 million in current assets and $4.7 million in noncurrent assets. Our credit terms are predominately short term in nature; however, in certain circumstances, we offer extended payment terms to customers who have not met the payment terms of their original contract.
Our principal use of our funds for liquidity and capital resources in the year ended December 31, 2024 consisted of cash used in investing activities of $17.1 million for additional rental equipment, other property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $5.9 million and $2.8 million for net maturities of marketable securities.
We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and the cash to be generated from expected product sales and rentals will be sufficient to meet our projected operating and investing requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, our liquidity assumptions may prove to be incorrect, and we could utilize our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including market acceptance of our products; the cost of our research and development activities; payments from customers; the cost, timing, and outcome of litigation or disputes involving intellectual property rights, our products, employee relations, cyber security incidents, or otherwise; the cost and timing of acquisitions and integration thereof; the cost and timing of regulatory clearances or approvals; the cost and timing of establishing additional sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities; and the effect of competing technological and market developments. In the future, we may acquire businesses or technologies from third parties, and we may decide to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to the extent we believe this is necessary to successfully complete these acquisitions. Our future capital requirements will also depend on many additional factors, including those set forth in the section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K entitled “Risk Factors.”
69
If we require additional funds in the future, we may not be able to obtain such funds on acceptable terms, or at all. In the future, we may also attempt to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities or through equity-linked or debt financing arrangements. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or equity-linked securities, the ownership of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we raise additional financing by the incurrence of indebtedness, we will be subject to increased fixed payment obligations and could also be subject to restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Any future indebtedness we incur may result in terms that could be unfavorable to equity investors. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital, which would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives. In addition, if our operating performance during the next twelve months is below our expectations, our liquidity and ability to operate our business could be adversely affected.
The following tables show a summary of our cash flows and working capital for the periods and as of the dates indicated:
(amounts in thousands) Years ended December 31,
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities $ 5,914 $ (3,234 ) $ (37,532 )
Cash provided by financing activities 265 960 380
Effect of exchange rates on cash (281 ) 67 (481 )
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents $ (8,077 ) $ (61,522 ) $ (48,510 )
(amounts in thousands) December 31,
Operating activities
Historically, we derive operating cash flows from cash collected from the sales and rental of our products and services. These cash flows received are partially offset by our use of cash for operating expenses to support the growth of our business.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 consisted primarily of non-cash adjustment items such as depreciation of equipment and leasehold improvements and amortization of intangibles of $21.0 million, provision for sales returns and doubtful accounts of $10.9 million, stock-based compensation expense of $7.4 million, net loss on disposal of rental assets and other assets of $4.5 million, and change in fair value of earnout liability of $3.0 million. These adjustment items were partially offset by our net loss of $35.9 million, and an increase in deferred tax assets of $1.2 million. The net changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net use of cash of $4.4 million.
Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted primarily of our net loss of $102.4 million, partially offset by non-cash adjustment items such as impairment charges of $32.9 million, depreciation of equipment and leasehold improvements and amortization of intangibles of $18.2 million, provision for sales returns and doubtful accounts of $10.7 million, stock-based compensation expense of $7.4 million, change in fair value of earnout liability of $6.8 million, net loss on disposal of rental assets and other assets of $4.5 million, provision for inventory obsolescence and other inventory losses of $2.7 million, and loss on purchase commitments of $2.1 million. The net changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in net cash provided of $14.3 million.
Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 consisted primarily of our net loss of $83.8 million and the non-cash add back for change in fair value of the earnout liability of $15.4 million, partially offset by non-cash adjustment items such as loss on disposal of intangible asset of $52.2 million, depreciation of equipment and leasehold improvements and amortization of intangibles of $23.5 million, provision for sales returns and doubtful accounts of $13.0 million, stock-based compensation expense of $12.3 million, net loss on disposal of rental equipment and other fixed assets of $3.1 million, and provision for inventory obsolescence and other inventory losses of $2.4 million. The net changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net use of cash of $44.7 million.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities generally includes the production and purchase of rental assets, property, plant and equipment, acquisitions, and intangibles to support our expanding business as well as maturities (purchases) of marketable securities.
70
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we invested $32.7 million in the purchase of marketable securities, $15.0 million in the production and purchase of rental assets and other property and equipment, and $2.1 million in intangible assets, partially offset by $35.5 million we received from maturities of marketable securities.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, we invested $29.6 million in the Physio-Assist acquisition, net of cash acquired, $26.9 million in purchase of marketable securities, $26.5 million in the production and purchase of rental assets and other property and equipment, and $0.5 million in intangible assets, partially offset by $24.0 million we received in maturities of marketable securities.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we invested $21.2 million in the production and purchase of rental assets and other property and equipment, partially offset by $10.0 million we received in maturities of marketable securities.
We expend significant manufacturing and production expense in connection with the development and production of our oxygen concentrator and other respiratory care products and, in connection with our rental business, we incur expense in the deployment and maintenance of rental equipment to our patients. Investments will continue to be required in order to grow our sales and rental revenue and continue to supply and replace rental equipment to our rental patients on service.
Financing activities
Historically, we have funded our operations through our sales and rental revenue and the issuance of preferred and common stock.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities consisted of $0.8 million from the proceeds received from purchases under our employee stock purchase program, partially offset by the payment of employment taxes related to the vesting of restricted stock units of $0.5 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities consisted of $1.5 million from the proceeds received from stock options that were exercised and purchases under our employee stock purchase program, partially offset by the payment of employment taxes related to the vesting of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units of $0.5 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities consisted of $1.7 million from the proceeds received from stock options that were exercised and purchases under our employee stock purchase program, partially offset by the payment of employment taxes related to the vesting of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units of $1.4 million.
Sources of funds
Our net cash provided by operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2024 was $5.9 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $113.8 million.
On January 25, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Yuwell (Hong Kong) Holdings Limited, an affiliate of Jiangsu Yuyue Medical Equipment & Supply Co., Ltd. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, Yuwell (Hong Kong) Holdings Limited has agreed to purchase 2,626,425 shares of the Company's common stock at a price per share of $10.36, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $27.2 million. The transaction closed on February 21, 2025.
Use of funds
Our principal uses of cash are funding our new rental asset deployments and other capital purchases, operations, and other working capital requirements and, from time-to-time, the acquisition of businesses. Over the past several years our cash flows from customer collections have remained consistent and our annual cash provided by operating activities has generally been a significant source of capital to the business.

Contractual obligations
The following table reflects a summary of our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2024.
Payments due by period
(amounts in thousands) Less than 1-3 3-5 More than
Contractual Obligations Total 1 year years years 5 years
(1)
We lease manufacturing and office space in Plano, TX, Goleta, CA, Smyrna, TN, Huntsville, AL, Aurora, CO, Beverly, MA, De Meern, Netherlands and Montpellier, France with terms that expire between 2025 and 2031 and miscellaneous office and processing equipment in Texas and California with terms expiring between 2025 and 2028. Included in these amounts are the lease payments assumed by a third party, referred to as the Assignee, based on an Assignment and Assumption of Lease Agreement in which the Assignee assumed the rights, title, and interest in the lease. Commencing February 1, 2024 and ending May 31, 2031, the Assignee assumed responsibility for the monthly lease payments, and we remain the primary obligor under the lease to the landlord.
(2)
We obtain individual components for our products from a wide variety of individual suppliers. Consistent with industry practice, we acquire components through a combination of purchase orders, supplier contracts, and open orders based on projected demand information. Where appropriate, the purchases are applied to inventory component prepayments that are outstanding with the respective supplier.
For additional description of contractual obligations and commitments, see the section titled “Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Contingent consideration
In connection with our acquisition of New Aera and Physio-Assist, we have contingent obligations to pay up to $31.4 million and $13.0 million, respectively, in earnout payments in cash if certain future financial results are met. See the section titled “Fair Value of Earnout Liability” in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion.
Non-GAAP financial measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define EBITDA as net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation, change in fair value of earnout liability, acquisition-related expenses, and restructuring-related and other charges. Below, we have provided a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to our net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net loss, or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as we calculate these measures.
We include EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because they are important measures upon which our management assesses our operating performance. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as key performance measures because we believe they facilitate operating performance comparisons from period-to-period by excluding potential differences primarily caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions, the impact of depreciation and amortization expense on our fixed assets and intangible assets, the impact of stock-based compensation expense, the impact of the change in fair value of the earnout liability, the impact of acquisition-related expenses, the impact of restructuring-related costs, and impairment charges. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we also use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for business planning purposes, to incentivize and compensate our management personnel, and in evaluating acquisition opportunities. In addition, we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial performance and debt-service capabilities.
72
Our uses of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
•
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures for capital equipment or other contractual commitments;
•
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect capital expenditure requirements for such replacements;
•
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
•
Adjusted EBITDA does not include changes in fair value of earnout liability related to our acquisitions;
•
Adjusted EBITDA does not include acquisition-related expenses, whether the acquisition was consummated or not pursued;
•
Adjusted EBITDA does not include costs associated with workforce reductions and associated costs and other restructuring-related activities;
•
goodwill impairment; and
•
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure.
In evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we anticipate that in the future we will incur expenses within these categories similar to this presentation. Our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by certain expenses. When evaluating our financial results, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should be considered alongside other financial performance measures, including U.S. GAAP results.
The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to our net loss, the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, for each of the periods indicated:

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks, including fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Foreign currency exchange risk
The principal market risk we face is foreign currency exchange risk. The majority of our revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars while the majority of our European sales are denominated in Euros. Our results of operations, certain balance sheet balances and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that we cannot forecast with reliable accuracy. We have experienced and will continue to experience fluctuations in our net income or loss as a result of transaction gains or losses related to revaluing certain current asset and current liability balances that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency in which they are recorded. The effect of a 10% adverse change in exchange rates on foreign denominated cash, receivables and payables as of December 31, 2024 would not have had a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As our operations in countries outside of the United States grow, our results of operations and cash flows will be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which could harm our business in the future.
We began entering into foreign exchange forward contracts to protect our forecasted U.S. dollar-equivalent earnings from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These hedging contracts reduce, but will not entirely eliminate, the impact of adverse currency exchange rate movements on revenue, cash, receivables and payables. We performed a sensitivity analysis assuming a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in foreign exchange rates to the hedging contracts and the underlying exposures described above. As of December 31, 2024, the analysis indicated that these hypothetical market movements would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We estimate prior to any hedging activity that a 10% adverse change in exchange rates on our foreign denominated sales would have resulted in a $9.0 million decline in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. We designate these forward contracts as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. The fair value of the forward contract is separated into intrinsic and time values. The fair value of forward currency-exchange contracts is sensitive to changes in currency exchange rates. Changes in the time value are coded in other income (expense), net. Changes in the intrinsic value are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into revenue to offset the hedged exposures as they occur.
Interest rate fluctuation risk
We had cash and cash equivalents of $113.8 million as of December 31, 2024, which consisted of highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. The primary goals of our investment policy are liquidity and capital preservation. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. We believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of these assets as a result of changes in interest rates due to the short-term nature of our cash and cash equivalents. Declines in interest rates, however, would reduce our future investment income. We considered the historical volatility of short-term interest rates and determined that it was reasonably possible that an adverse change of 100 basis points could be experienced in the near term. A hypothetical 1.00% (100 basis points) increase in interest rates would not have materially impacted the fair value of our marketable securities as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. If overall interest rates had increased or decreased by 1.00% (100 basis points), our interest income would not have been materially affected during the years ended December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and completely within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, among other processes, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions over time, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024. Based upon the evaluation described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on effectiveness of controls
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in any control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), or COSO. Based on our evaluation under the COSO framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, as stated in their report, which appears herein.

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Inogen, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Inogen, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, of the Company and our report dated February 28, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENTREGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Inogen, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Inogen, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 28, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Sales Revenue (Amounts Deferred for Lifetime Warranty) – Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company offers a lifetime warranty for direct-to-consumer sales of its oxygen concentrators. For a fixed price, the Company agrees to provide a fully functional oxygen concentrator for the remaining life of the patient. Lifetime warranties are only offered to patients upon the initial sale of oxygen concentrators directly from the Company and are non-transferable. Lifetime warranties are considered to be a distinct performance obligation that are accounted for separately from its sale of oxygen concentrators with a standard warranty of three years.
The revenue is allocated to the distinct lifetime warranty performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price (SSP) method. The Company has vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price for its equipment. To determine the selling price of the lifetime warranty, the Company uses its best estimate of the SSP for the distinct performance obligation as the lifetime warranty is neither separately priced nor is the selling price available through third-party evidence. To estimate the selling price associated with the lifetime warranties, management considers the profit margins of service revenue, the average estimated cost of lifetime warranties and the price of extended warranties. Revenue from the distinct lifetime warranty is deferred after the delivery of the equipment and recognized based on an estimated mortality rate over five years, which is the estimated performance period of the contract based on the average patient life expectancy. Total deferred revenue related to the lifetime warranty performance obligation totaled $9.9 million at December 31, 2024.
F-2
Determining the estimated SSP requires significant judgment by management, which is informed by considering Company specific and external data. The service period used to amortize the deferred revenue also requires significant management judgment as the Company has limited historical experience and the determination of patient life expectancy is subjective in nature. Given the lack of stand-alone transactions together with the limited amount of historical data available for such offering, performing audit procedures to evaluate the estimated SSP and the service period for lifetime warranty required high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to management’s judgments regarding the stand-alone selling price and deferred revenue service period included the following, among others:
•
We tested the effectiveness of controls over deferred revenue for the lifetime warranty, including controls over the underlying data utilized and the selection of the stand-alone selling price and the deferred revenue service period.
•
We evaluated the methodology used by management to develop the stand-alone selling price and independently estimated the stand-alone selling price selected by management. In performing these procedures, we compared the stand-alone selling price selected by management to the independent estimate, which utilized external evidence of similar term extended warranties for oxygen concentrators and the Company’s profit margins.
•
We evaluated the reasonableness of the deferred revenue service period by comparing to patient average life expectancy in medical and other industry publications. We further evaluated the realization of deferred revenue by evaluating the appropriateness of the underlying mortality data.

1. Nature of business
Inogen, Inc. (Company or Inogen) was incorporated in Delaware on November 27, 2001. The Company is a medical technology business that primarily develops, manufactures, and markets innovative respiratory products, such as portable oxygen concentrators (POCs) used to deliver supplemental long-term oxygen therapy to patients suffering from chronic respiratory conditions. Traditionally, these patients have relied on stationary oxygen concentrator systems for use in the home and oxygen tanks or cylinders for mobile use, which the Company refers to as the delivery model. The tanks and cylinders must be delivered regularly and contain a finite amount of oxygen, which requires patients to plan activities outside of their homes around delivery schedules and a finite oxygen supply. Additionally, patients must attach long, cumbersome tubing to their stationary concentrators simply to enable mobility within their homes. The Company’s proprietary Inogen One and Inogen Rove systems concentrate the air around the patient to offer a source of supplemental oxygen anytime, anywhere with a battery and can be plugged into an outlet when at home, in a car, or in a public place with outlets available. The Company’s Inogen One and Inogen Rove systems reduce the patient’s reliance on stationary concentrators and scheduled deliveries of tanks with a finite supply of oxygen, thereby improving patient quality of life and fostering mobility.
The Company incorporated Inogen Europe Holding B.V., a Dutch limited liability company, on April 13, 2017. On May 4, 2017, Inogen Europe Holding B.V. acquired all issued and outstanding capital stock of MedSupport Systems B.V. (MedSupport) and began operating under the name Inogen Europe B.V. The Company merged Inogen Europe Holding B.V. and Inogen Europe B.V. on December 28, 2018. Inogen Europe B.V. is the remaining legal entity. Inogen completed the acquisition of New Aera, Inc. (New Aera) on August 9, 2019. On September 14, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Physio-Assist SAS (Physio-Assist) and its wholly-owned subsidiary PhysioAssist GmbH.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Inogen, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Accounting estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to revenue recognition, warranty reserves and expense, determining the stand-alone selling price (SSP) and service period of performance obligations, rental asset valuations and write-downs, accounts receivable allowances for bad debts, returns and adjustments, impairment of goodwill, impairment of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, financing receivable and fair value of earnout liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Revenue
The Company generates revenue primarily from sales and rentals of its products. The Company’s products consist primarily of its proprietary line of oxygen concentrators, and related accessories. Other revenue, which is included in sales revenue on the statements of comprehensive loss, primarily comes from service contracts, replacement parts and freight revenue for product shipments.
F-9
Sales revenue
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue from product sales is generally recognized upon shipment of the product but is deferred for certain transactions when control has not yet transferred to the customer.
The Company’s product is generally sold with a right of return and the Company may provide other incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. Returns and incentives are estimated at the time sales revenue is recognized. The provision for estimated returns is calculated based on historical data and future expectations. Sales revenue incentives within the Company’s contracts are estimated based on the most likely amounts expected on the related sales transactions and recorded as a reduction to revenue at the time of sale in accordance with the terms of the contract. Accordingly, revenue is recognized net of allowances for estimated returns and incentives.
For a fixed price, the Company also offers a lifetime warranty for direct-to-consumer sales for its oxygen concentrators.Lifetime warranties are only offered to patients upon the initial sale of oxygen concentrators directly from the Company and are non-transferable. Lifetime warranties are considered to be a distinct performance obligation that are accounted for separately from its sale of oxygen concentrators with a standard warranty of three years.
The revenue is allocated to the distinct lifetime warranty performance obligation based on a relative SSP method. The Company has vendor-specific objective evidence of the selling price for its equipment. To determine the selling price of the lifetime warranty, the Company uses its best estimate of the SSP for the distinct performance obligation as the lifetime warranty is neither separately priced nor is the selling price available through third-party evidence. To calculate the selling price associated with the lifetime warranties, management considers the profit margins of service revenue, the average estimated cost of lifetime warranties and the price of extended warranties. Revenue from the distinct lifetime warranty is deferred after the delivery of the equipment and recognized based on an estimated mortality rate over five years, which is the estimated performance period of the contract based on the average patient life expectancy.
Revenue from the sale of the Company’s repair services is recognized when the performance obligations are satisfied and collection of the receivables is probable. Other revenue from the sale of replacement parts is generally recognized when product is shipped to customers.
Freight revenue consists of fees associated with the deployment of products internationally and domestically when expedited freight options are requested or when minimum order quantities are not met. Freight revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of the product but is deferred if control has not yet transferred to the customer. Shipping and handling costs for sold products and rental assets shipped to the Company’s customers are included on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss as part of cost of sales revenue and cost of rental revenue, respectively.
The payment terms and conditions of customer contracts vary by customer type and the products and services offered. For certain products or services and customer types, the Company requires payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer. The timing of sales revenue recognition, billing and cash collection results in billed accounts receivable and deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets.
Contract liabilities primarily consist of deferred revenue related to lifetime warranties on direct-to-consumer sales revenue when cash payments are received in advance of services performed under the contract. The contract with the customer states the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchase. The decrease in deferred revenue related to lifetime warranties for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $5,088 and $6,438, respectively, of revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenue balances, partially offset by $1,695 and $3,219, respectively, of payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations. Deferred revenue related to lifetime warranties was $9,922 and $13,315 as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is classified within deferred revenue – current and noncurrent deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company elected to apply the practical expedient in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606—Revenue Recognition and did not evaluate contracts of one year or less for the existence of a significant financing component. The Company does not expect any revenue to be recognized over a multi-year period with the exception of revenue related to lifetime warranties.
F-10
The Company’s sales revenue is primarily derived from the sale of its oxygen concentrator products to individual consumers, home medical equipment providers, distributors, the Company’s private label partner and resellers worldwide. Sales revenue is classified into two areas: business-to-business sales and direct-to-consumer sales. The following table sets forth the Company’s sales revenue disaggregated by sales channel and geographic region:
Years ended December 31,
Rental revenue
The Company recognizes equipment rental revenue over the non-cancelable lease term, which is one month, less estimated adjustments, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842—Leases. The Company has separate contracts with each patient that are not subject to a master lease agreement with any third-party payor. The Company evaluates the individual lease contracts at lease inception and the start of each monthly renewal period to determine if it is reasonably certain that the monthly renewal option and the bargain renewal option associated with the potential capped free rental period would be exercised. Historically, the exercise of the monthly renewal and bargain renewal option is not reasonably certain at lease inception and at most subsequent monthly lease renewal periods. If the Company determines that the reasonably certain threshold for an individual patient is met at lease inception or at a monthly lease renewal period, such determination would impact the bargain renewal period for an individual lease. The Company would first consider the lease classification issue (sales-type lease or operating lease) and then appropriately recognize or defer rental revenue over the lease term, which may include a portion of the capped rental period. The Company has not deferred any amounts associated with the capped rental period as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Amounts related to the capped rental period have not been material in the periods presented.
The lease term begins on the date products are shipped to patients and are recorded at amounts estimated to be received under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicare, private payors, and Medicaid. Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application, claim denial or account review. The Company adjusts revenue for historical trends on revenue adjustments due to timely filings, deaths, hospice, and other types of analyzable adjustments on a monthly basis to record rental revenue at the expected collectible amounts. Accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts which provides for those accounts from which payment is not expected to be received although product was delivered and revenue was earned. The determination that an account is uncollectible, and the ultimate write-off of that account occurs once collection is considered to be highly unlikely, and it is written-off and charged to the allowance at that time. Amounts billed but not earned due to the timing of the billing cycle are deferred and recognized in revenue on a straight-line basis over the monthly billing period. For example, if the first day of the billing period does not fall on the first of the month, then a portion of the monthly billing period will fall in the subsequent month and the related revenue and cost would be deferred based on the service days in the following month.
The lease agreements generally contain lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components primarily include payments for supplies. The Company elected the practical expedient to treat the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Rental revenue is recognized as earned, less estimated adjustments. Revenue not billed at the end of the period is reviewed for the likelihood of collections and accrued. The rental revenue stream is not guaranteed, and payment will cease if the patient no longer needs oxygen or returns the equipment. Revenue recognized is at full estimated allowable amounts; transfers to secondary insurances or patient responsibility have no net effect on revenue. Rental revenue is earned for that entire month if the patient is on service on the first day of the 30-day period commencing on the recurring date of service for a particular claim, regardless of whether there is a change in condition or death after that date.
Included in rental revenue are unbilled amounts for which the revenue recognition criteria had been met as of period-end but were not yet billed to the payor. The estimate of net unbilled rental revenue recognized is based on historical trends and estimates of future collectability. In addition, the Company estimates potential future adjustments and write-offs of these unbilled amounts and includes these estimates in the allowance for adjustments and write-offs of rental revenue which is netted against gross receivables.
F-11
Product Warranty
The Company generally provides a warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The Company provides a three-year, five-year or lifetime warranty on Inogen One and Rove systems and a three-year and lifetime warranty on Inogen At Home systems sold. The Company only offers a lifetime warranty for direct-to-consumer sales of its oxygen concentrators. For a fixed price, the Company agrees to provide a fully functional oxygen concentrator for the remaining life of the patient. Lifetime warranties are only offered to patients upon the initial sale of oxygen concentrators directly from the Company and are non-transferable. The Company’s products are subject to regulatory and quality standards. The Company establishes an accrued liability for the estimated warranty costs at the time of revenue recognition, with a corresponding provision to cost of goods sold. The Company evaluates the liability each reporting period. Warranty costs are primarily estimated based on product return rates, historical warranty repair costs incurred and historical failure rates. The Company may make further adjustments to the warranty reserve when deemed appropriate, giving additional consideration to length of time the product version has been sold and future expectations of performance based on new features and capabilities. Actual warranty costs could differ materially from the estimated amounts.
Fair value accounting
ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures creates a single definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement is to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction to sell an asset or to transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. Assets and liabilities adjusted to fair value in the balance sheet are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Level inputs, as defined by ASC 820, are as follows:
Level input Input definition
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, financing receivable, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying values of its financial instruments approximate fair value based on their short-term nature.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company obtained the fair value of its available-for-sale investments, which are not in active markets, from a third-party professional pricing service using quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments, rather than direct observations of quoted prices in active markets. The Company's professional pricing service gathers observable inputs for all of its fixed income securities from a variety of industry data providers (e.g., large custodial institutions) and other third-party sources. Once the observable inputs are gathered, all data points are considered, and the fair value is determined. The Company validates the quoted market prices provided by its primary pricing service by comparing their assessment of the fair values against the fair values provided by its investment managers. The Company's investment managers use similar techniques to its professional pricing service to derive pricing as described above. As all significant inputs were observable, derived from observable information in the marketplace or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace, the Company has classified its marketable securities within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
F-12
The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level for the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis for cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities:
Gross Cash
Adjusted unrealized and cash Restricted
cost gains Fair value equivalents cash
Level 1:
Level 2:
Gross Cash
Adjusted unrealized and cash Marketable
cost gains Fair value equivalents securities
Level 1:
Level 2:
Fair value of derivative instruments and hedging activities
The Company transacts business in foreign currencies and has international sales and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, subjecting the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company has entered into foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities of twelve months or less, to reduce the volatility of cash flows, primarily related to forecasted revenue denominated in certain foreign currencies. These contracts allow the Company to sell Euros in exchange for U.S. dollars at specified contract rates. Forward contracts are used to hedge forecasted sales over specific months. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts designed as cash flow and balance sheet hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity and are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss during the period which approximates the time the corresponding sales occur. The Company may also enter into foreign exchange contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments for financial accounting purposes. These contracts are generally entered into to offset the gains and losses on certain asset and liability balances until the expected time of repayment. Accordingly, any gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the non-designated contracts are reported in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The gains and losses on these contracts generally offset the gains and losses associated with the underlying foreign currency-denominated balances, which are also reported in other income (expense), net.
The Company records the assets or liabilities associated with derivative instruments and hedging activities at fair value based on Level 2 inputs in other current assets or other current liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company had a related receivable of $351 and related payable of $155 as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
F-13
The Company documents the hedging relationship and its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method used to measure ineffectiveness. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness and ineffectiveness at a minimum quarterly but may assess it monthly. For derivative instruments that are designed and qualify as part of a cash flow hedging relationship, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current period earnings.
The Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedge risk. The cash flow hedge is de-designated because a forecasted transaction is not probable of occurring, or management determines to remove the designation of the cash flow hedge. In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative remains outstanding, the Company continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheets and recognizes any subsequent changes in the fair value in earnings. When it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the Company will discontinue hedge accounting and recognize immediately in earnings gains and losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive loss related to the hedging relationship.
Fair value of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)
The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:
Foreign Unrealized Accumulated
currency losses other
translation on marketable comprehensive
adjustments securities income (loss)
Foreign Unrealized Accumulated
currency gains other
translation on marketable comprehensive
adjustments securities income (loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is the total net earnings and all other non-owner changes in equity. Except for net income (loss) and unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges, the Company does not have any transactions or other economic events that qualify as comprehensive income (loss).
Fair value of earnout liability
The earnout liability will be adjusted to fair value at each reporting date until settled. At the end of each reporting period after the acquisition date, the arrangement is remeasured at its fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. Changes in fair value will be recognized in general and administrative expense.
The Company has obligations to pay up to $13,000 and $31,400 in earnout payments for the Physio-Assist acquisition and the New Aera acquisition, respectively, in cash if certain future financial and regulatory results are met. The earnout liabilities were valued using Level 3 inputs.
F-14
The fair value of the New Aera earnout was determined historically by employing a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework. The underlying simulated variable includes recognized revenue. The recognized revenue volatility estimate was based on a study of historical asset volatility for a set of comparable public companies. The model included other assumptions including the market price of risk, which was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital less the long-term risk-free rate. The earnout period for recognized revenue is each calendar year beginning with calendar year 2019 and ending on the calendar year in which the earnout consideration equals the earnout cap. As a result of the earnout requirements not expected to be met for New Aera due to the asset disposal, the Company considered the fair value measurement of the earnout liability to be $0 as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. Additional information on the loss on disposal of intangible asset contained later in this Note in Long-lived assets.
The fair value of the Physio-Assist earnout was valued using a probability weighted expected return methodology and was discounted using a rate and probability that appropriately captures the risk associated with the achievement of one of two milestones related to FDA De Novo authorization or 510(k) clearance for the Simeox Airway Clearance System within four years of the date of the closing of the transaction. Significant increases or decreases in these inputs could result in a significant impact on our fair value measurement. In December 2024, the Company received FDA 510(k) clearance of its Simeox 200 device. Upon clearance, the Company became obligated to make the $13,000 cash earnout milestone payment. The payment was made within ten business days following the date clearance was received.
The reconciliation of the earnout liabilities measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ —
Addition for acquisition 3,178
Change in fair value 6,822
Change in fair value 3,000
Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash
The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash and cash equivalents are considered to be legally restricted as to withdrawal or usage. The Company's restricted cash is a legally restricted deposit held as a compensating balance against its corporate credit card balances.
The Company’s marketable debt securities are classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. Cash equivalents are recorded at cost plus accrued interest, which is considered adjusted cost, and approximates fair value. Marketable debt securities are included in cash equivalents and marketable securities based on the maturity date of the security.
The Company considers investments with maturities greater than three months, but less than one year, to be marketable securities. Investments are reported at fair value with realized and unrealized gains or losses reported in other income (expense), net.
The Company reviews its investments to identify and evaluate investments that have an indication of possible impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, and the Company's intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. Expected credit losses are declines in fair value that are not expected to recover and are charged to other income (expense), net.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal sales and rental terms. The Company performs credit evaluations of the customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level that, in management’s opinion, is adequate to absorb potential losses related to accounts receivable and is based upon the Company’s continuous evaluation of the collectability of outstanding balances. Management’s evaluation takes into consideration such factors as past bad debt experience, economic conditions and information about specific receivables. The Company’s evaluation also considers the age and composition of the outstanding amounts in determining their net realizable value.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from current estimates. As adjustments to these estimates become necessary, they are reported in general and administrative expense for sales revenue in the periods in which they become known. The allowance is increased by bad debt provisions, net of recoveries, and is reduced by direct write-offs.
F-15
The Company generally does not allow returns from providers for reasons not covered under its standard warranty. Therefore, provision for returns applies primarily to direct-to-consumer sales. This reserve is calculated primarily based on actual historical return rates under the Company’s 30-day return program and is applied to the related sales revenue for the last month of the quarter reported.
The Company also records an estimate for rental revenue adjustments which is recorded as a reduction of rental revenue and net rental accounts receivable balances. These adjustments result from contractual adjustments, audit adjustments, untimely claims filings, or billings not paid due to another provider performing same or similar functions for the patient in the same period, all of which prevent billed revenue from becoming realizable. The reserve is based on historical revenue adjustments as a percentage of rental revenue billed and unbilled during the related period.
When recording the allowance for doubtful accounts for sales revenue, the bad debt expense account (general and administrative expense account) is charged and when recording allowance for sales returns, the sales returns account (contra sales revenue account) is charged.
The Company consistently applies its allowance estimation methodology from period-to-period. The Company’s best estimate is made on an accrual basis and adjusted in future periods as required. Any adjustments to the prior period estimates are included in the current period. As additional information becomes known, the Company adjusts its assumptions accordingly to change its estimate of accounts receivable. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had increases of $2,127 and $1,055, respectively, in the net rental revenue related to prior years.
Net accounts receivable (gross accounts receivable, net of allowances) balance concentrations by major category as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:

Net accounts receivable $ % $ %

One customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s net accounts receivable balance with a net accounts receivable balance of $3,288 as of December 31, 2024. Two customers each represented more than 10% of the Company’s net accounts receivable balance with net accounts receivable balances of $8,639 and $4,994, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.

F-16
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, financing receivable and accounts receivable. At times, cash account balances may be in excess of the amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. However, management believes the risk of loss to be minimal. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions and has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents to date. The Company has also entered into hedging relationships with a single counterparty to offset the forecasted Euro-based revenues. The credit risk has been reduced due to a net settlement arrangement whereby the Company is allowed to net settle transactions with a single net amount payable by one party to the other.
Financing receivable
The Company's credit terms are predominately short term in nature from delivery of the product or invoicing. However, in certain circumstances, the Company offers extended payment terms to customers who have not met the payment terms of their original contract. In addition, certain customers may not comply with formal payment terms specified in their written agreements with us. When the period between the transfer of control of the products and payment is expected to be greater than one year, the Company will adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. When contracts contain a significant financing component in which the Company is effectively financing the customer, a portion of the transaction price is recognized as interest income rather than revenue using a discount rate that reflects the rate that would be used in a separate financing transaction between the Company and the customer. The Company exercises judgment to determine an appropriate interest rate considering the customer’s credit characteristics and current economic conditions.
Based on an agreement reached on December 31, 2024 with a customer, the Company agreed to a revised payment schedule through 2028 for $7,500 in outstanding net accounts receivables related to prior year sales. As a result, the receivable was reclassified to a financing receivable. The related net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023 was $8,639 for this customer. The current and noncurrent financing receivable related to this agreement was $1,751 and $4,747 as of December 31, 2024, respectively, and are classified within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets - noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets.
Concentration of customers and vendors
The Company primarily sells its products to traditional home medical equipment providers, distributors, and resellers in the United States and in foreign countries on a credit basis. The Company also sells its products direct-to-consumers primarily on a prepayment basis. Medicare's service reimbursement programs represented more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. One customer represented more than 10% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance with a net accounts receivable balance of $3,288 as of December 31, 2024. Two customers each represented more than 10% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance with net accounts receivable balances of $8,639 and $4,994, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.
The Company also rents products directly to consumers for insurance reimbursement, which resulted in a customer concentration relating to Medicare’s service reimbursement programs. Medicare’s service reimbursement programs accounted for 56.3%, 67.7% and 77.0% of rental revenue in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and based on total revenue were 9.5%, 13.7% and 11.6% for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accounts receivable balances relating to Medicare’s service reimbursement programs (including held and unbilled, net of allowances) amounted to $1,107, or 4.8%, of total net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024 compared to $2,059, or 4.9%, of total net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023.
The Company currently purchases raw materials from a limited number of vendors, which resulted in a concentration of three major vendors. The three major vendors supply the Company with raw materials used to manufacture the Company’s products. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s three major vendors accounted for 19.6%, 18.4% and 10.2%, respectively, of total raw material purchases. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s three major vendors accounted for 30.8%, 16.1% and 7.9%, respectively, of total raw material purchases.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company records adjustments to inventory for potentially excess, obsolete, slow-moving or impaired items, and losses on firm purchase commitments as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The Company recorded noncurrent inventory related to inventories that are expected to be realized or consumed after one year of $1,291 and $1,225 as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Noncurrent inventories are primarily related to raw materials purchased in bulk to support long-term expected repairs to reduce costs and are classified in other assets.During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, $562, $2,187 and $1,221, respectively, of inventory was transferred to rental equipment and was considered a noncash transaction in the production and purchase of rental equipment on the consolidated statements of cash flows. Inventories that are considered current consist of the following:

Raw materials and work-in-progress $ 19,224 $ 18,036
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives as follows:
Rental equipment 1.5-8 years
Manufacturing equipment and tooling 3-5 years
Computer equipment and software 2-3 years
Furniture and equipment 5 years
Leasehold improvements Lesser of estimated useful life or remaining lease term
Expenditures for additions, improvements and replacements are capitalized and depreciated to a salvage value of $0. Repair and maintenance costs on rental equipment are included in cost of rental revenue on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Repair and maintenance expense, which includes labor, parts and freight, for rental equipment was $6,413, $5,143 and $4,528 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Included within property and equipment is construction in process, primarily related to the design and engineering of tooling, jigs and other machinery. In addition, this item also includes computer software or development costs that have been purchased but have not completed the final configuration process for implementation into the Company’s systems. These items have not been placed in service; therefore, no depreciation or amortization was recognized for these items in the respective periods.
Depreciation and amortization expense related to rental equipment and other property and equipment are summarized below for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Long-lived assets
The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360 — Property, Plant, and Equipment. Long-lived assets are reviewed for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. No impairments were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
On December 19, 2022, the Company determined to dispose of the technology intangible assets previously acquired from New Aera related to the Tidal Assist Ventilator (TAV) technology by ceasing development of such assets and abandoning the TAV program (the Disposal Determination). Prior to December 19, 2022, the TAV intangible asset was held and used, including ongoing research and development and no significant revenue. The Company made the Disposal Determination based on the Company’s assessment that continued development of the assets would not be economically feasible. The assessment considered many factors, including 1) the lack of compatibility and functionality of the technology intangible asset within the Company’s existing product portfolio, 2) the lack of commercial potential of such products that were not approved for ventilation Medicare reimbursement and a negative litigation outcome that occurred subsequent to the approved coding process, and 3) the substantial additional investment that would be required in order to attempt to achieve any commercial potential with substantial risk that no benefit would ever be achievable. There had been no significant revenue associated with the sale of products developed from the technology intangible asset acquired from New Aera to date and the Company does not expect any revenue from such products going forward. Upon abandonment, the Company recognized a loss on disposal of $52,161 in our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 for intangible assets, inventories, fixed assets, and construction in process associated with the TAV technology. As a result of no future sales, the fair value of the earnout resulted in a benefit of $13,687 to general and administrative expense during the fourth quarter of 2022.
Goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets
Goodwill represents the excess acquisition cost over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of October 1 or whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or asset below its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied estimated fair value, an impairment charge to current operations is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the implied estimated fair value.
The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. If, based on a review of qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount, the Company will use a quantitative approach, and calculate the fair value and compare it to its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, there is no indication of impairment. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference.
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives and are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Technology and customer relationships are amortized using the straight-line method.
F-19
Business combinations
The results of operations of the businesses acquired by the Company are included as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. To the extent the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, such excess is allocated to goodwill. The Company may adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation, as necessary, for up to one year after the acquisition closing date if it obtains more information regarding asset valuations and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, operating lease liability – current, and operating lease liability – noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheets.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments as the rate implicit in each lease is generally not readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company elected the practical expedient to treat the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Additionally, the Company elected the practical expedient to not record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less on the consolidated balance sheets.
Loss contingencies
The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews at least quarterly and adjusts accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information.
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs, which were approximately $32,176, $27,120 and $33,265 during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are expensed as incurred, excluding the production costs of direct response advertising. Advertising costs are included in sales and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
Restructuring charges
Restructuring costs include workforce reductions, termination benefits, office downsizing, centralizing manufacturing activities, and equipment relocation. Key assumptions used in calculating the restructuring costs include the terms of, and payments under, agreements to terminate certain contractual obligations and the timing of reductions in workforce.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 — Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the future tax consequences of transactions that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
F-20
The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10 — Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This accounting standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on taxes, if any, within its income tax provision on its consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
Accounting for stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 — Compensation—Stock Compensation, which establishes accounting for share-based awards, exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. Stock–based compensation cost for stock options and employee stock purchase plan are determined at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock-based compensation cost for stock incentive awards is based on the number of shares ultimately expected to vest, estimated at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria. The value of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period.
As part of the provisions of ASC 718, the Company is required to estimate potential forfeitures of stock grants and adjust compensation cost recorded accordingly. The estimate of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent that actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of stock compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.
Foreign currency
The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiaries is the local currency. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using month-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for revenue, cost of revenue, operating expense and provision for income taxes. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses resulting from the conversion of the transaction currency to functional currency are reflected as a component of foreign currency exchange gains or losses in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
Loss per share
Loss per share (EPS) is computed in accordance with ASC 260 — Earnings per Share and is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock equivalents (which can include dilution of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards) unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase the income per share. For purposes of this calculation, common stock subject to repurchase by the Company, options, and other dilutive awards are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted loss per share when their effect is dilutive.
Basic loss per share is calculated using the Company’s weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted loss per share is calculated using the Company’s weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock including the dilutive effect of stock awards as determined under the treasury stock method.
