Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those made, projected or implied in the forward-looking statements. Please see the “Risk Factors Summary” and “Risk Factors” sections for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. A discussion of the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 has been reported previously in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2022, under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Overview

We are a commercial-stage medical device company focused on designing, developing and marketing an advanced femtosecond laser system for the treatment of cataracts and the management of pre-existing or surgically induced corneal astigmatism. Our systems incorporate a range of proprietary technologies designed to assist the surgeon in obtaining better visual outcomes, efficiency and reproducibility by providing advanced imaging, simplified procedure planning, efficient design and precision. We believe the cumulative effect of these technologies results in a laser system that can be quickly and efficiently integrated into a surgeon’s existing practice, is easy to use and provides surgeons the ability to deliver improved visual outcomes.

Our current product portfolio includes the LENSAR Laser System with Streamline IV and IntelliAxis (both our first generation and ALLY® Adaptive Cataract Treatment System, or ALLY System) and its associated consumable components. The consumable portion of the system consists of a disposable patient interface device kit, or PID kit, and the system also requires a procedure license. Each procedure on each system requires the use of a PID kit. The PID kit includes a suction ring, vacuum filter and fluidic connection that are designed to facilitate placement of the laser while minimizing a patient’s discomfort, intraocular pressure and trauma to the retina and maintaining corneal integrity. The procedure license is downloaded onto the system as required or as purchased by the customer. The system will not perform a procedure without a valid license. We sell licenses individually and also offer licenses in a subscription package with minimum monthly obligations and the ability to increase procedure numbers as the practice grows to address occasional increases in demand. We believe this structure allows the surgeon to implement a budget while also providing us with a predictable revenue stream.

We are focused on continuous innovation and have launched our proprietary next generation ALLY System. The ALLY System, which has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, enables cataract surgeons to complete the femtosecond-laser-assisted cataract surgery, or FLACS, procedure seamlessly in a single, sterile environment. Our ALLY System received clearance from the FDA in June 2022, and we executed a controlled and targeted initial launch of the ALLY System beginning in August 2022. The ALLY System is expected to be made widely available to U.S. cataract surgeons in 2023, and we intend to submit additional marketing or certification applications outside the United States in an effort to commercialize the ALLY System in additional countries and operating regions. Our ability to place systems in 2022 was limited by supply chain constraints that delayed the delivery of certain ALLY System raw materials and the completion and testing of ALLY Systems for use as launch-stock inventory. The FDA clearance is the first stage of a planned, two step commercial release strategy. As the second stage of the strategy, we plan to seek an additional 510(k) clearance for the phacoemulsification features of the ALLY System in a subsequent 510(k) submission subject to a third party’s phacoemulsification device receiving clearance and serving as a predicate device. As this device will be considered the predicate device for purposes of evaluating the ALLY System’s phacoemulsification functionality, we are unable to submit a 510(k) submission seeking clearance of the phacoemulsification features within the ALLY System until the predicate device receives FDA clearance. Accordingly, we are delivering the ALLY System to surgeons in the initial launch with the phacoemulsification features disabled and/or removed. In 2022, we transitioned from manufacturing and selling our LENSAR Laser System to focus on our ALLY System. In September 2022, we submitted the ALLY System for certification in the European Union, or EU, and we intend to submit additional marketing or certification applications outside the United States in an effort to commercialize the ALLY System in additional countries and operating regions. Our growth, market presence and ability to sell the ALLY System will depend on whether the ALLY System receives regulatory

74

clearance in other regions outside the United States and the timing of these clearances or certifications, among other factors. In addition, based on inventory of our LENSAR Laser System, our future revenue and cash flows will depend on, among other factors, our installed base of systems and the timing of and applicable clearances for our ALLY System.

We have built and are continuing to grow our commercial organization, which includes a direct sales force in the United States and distributors in Germany, China, South Korea and other targeted international markets. We believe there is significant opportunity for us to expand our presence in these countries and other markets and regions. In the United States, we sell our products through a direct sales organization that, as of December 31, 2022, consisted of approximately 45 commercial professionals, including regional sales managers, clinical applications and outcomes specialists, field service, marketing, technical and customer support personnel. We manufacture our systems at a facility in Orlando, Florida. We purchase custom and off-the-shelf components from a number of suppliers, including some single-source suppliers. We purchase the majority of our components and major assemblies through purchase orders with limited long-term supply agreements and generally do not maintain large volumes of finished goods. We strive to maintain enough inventory of our various component parts to avoid the impact of potential disruptions in the supply chain; however, availability of these components can be outside of our control, especially with the impact of the global supply chain disruptions with respect to certain products, including increasing lead times required for the ordering of component parts to meet targeted production goals, unpredictability with respect to suppliers’ ability to fulfill orders in the requested quantities within the agreed timeframe, and the ability to find alternative component parts.

Our revenue increased from $34.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $35.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, representing an increase of 2.6%. Our net losses were $19.6 million and $19.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively. Our total installed base of LENSAR Laser Systems and ALLY Systems was approximately 270 as of December 31, 2022.

Factors to Consider

We operate in a highly competitive environment that involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond our control. We are subject to risks common to medical device companies, including risks inherent in:

our laser system development and commercialization efforts;

clinical studies;

uncertainty of regulatory actions and marketing approvals or certifications;

reliance on a network of international distributors and a network of suppliers;

levels of coverage and reimbursement by government or other third-party payors for procedures using our products;

patients’ willingness and ability to pay for procedures with significant costs not covered by or reimbursable through government or other third-party payors;

enforcement of patent and proprietary rights;

the need for future capital;

the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and all safety requirements and suggestions regarding patient treatment as required or suggested by health care authorities;

clearance or certification by regulatory agencies, including the FDA, or notified bodies for our ALLY System;

supply chain shortages, labor market shifts and price increases resulting from various macroeconomic factors, including related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; and

competition associated with our products.

75

We cannot provide assurance that we will generate significant revenues or achieve and sustain profitability in the future. In addition, we can provide no assurance that we will have sufficient funding to meet our future capital requirements.

Our revenues and operating expenses are also difficult to predict and depend on several factors, including the level of ongoing research and development requirements necessary to complete development and obtain further regulatory clearance or certification of our ALLY System, the number of laser systems we manufacture, sell, and lease on an annual basis, the availability of capital and direction from regulatory agencies or notified bodies, which are difficult to predict. We may be able to control the timing and level of research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, but many of these expenditures will occur irrespective of our actions due to contractually committed activities and payments.

Although procedure volume in 2021 and 2022 returned to levels consistent with those seen prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, global supply chain disruptions that originated during the COVID-19 pandemic and other macroeconomic factors continue to influence our operations, particularly as it relates to building inventory for the ALLY System. We have experienced some supply chain disruptions and unavailability of various component parts needed for our systems, including increasing lead times required for the ordering of component parts to meet targeted production goals and unpredictability with respect to our suppliers’ ability to fulfill orders in the requested quantities, within the agreed timeframe, as well as an increase of costs associated with certain raw materials and component parts. To date, we have maintained sufficient inventory to mitigate significant adverse impact from such disruptions and unavailability in the near-term and to meet the expected needs of our initial launch of the ALLY System; however, we are continuing to monitor developments with respect to the outbreak and its potential impact on our operations and to our employees, distributors, partners, suppliers, and regulators. The lingering impacts of COVID-19 into early 2023, along with global economic uncertainty, have impeded global supply chains, resulted in longer lead times and delays in procuring component parts and raw materials, and resulted in inflationary cost increases in certain raw materials, labor and transportation. In particular, a global semiconductor supply shortage has had, and is continuing to have, wide-ranging effects across multiple industries. We have seen significant disruptions in the supply of, timing of delivery of and fluctuations in pricing for various component parts needed for our products, including the integrated circuits used in our systems, and expect these trends to continue. While we are not directly exposed to economic conditions in Russia or Ukraine, the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has also had a substantial impact on global supply chains and may be a contributing factor to the supply chain shortages we are experiencing. Supply chain disruptions and broad-based inflationary impacts have negatively impacted the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows since 2020 and these supply chain constraints may result in future impacts to our business. We expect these inflationary impacts to continue for the foreseeable future. A high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain and increase our gross margin or decrease our operating expenses as a percentage of our revenues if our selling prices of our products do not increase as much or more than our increase in costs.

As a result of these and other factors, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of future performance, and any interim results we present are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

Total revenue comprises product revenue, service revenue and lease revenue. We derive product revenue from the sale of our laser systems and sales of our PIDs and procedure licenses to our surgeon customers and to our distributors outside the United States. A PID and procedure license, which may also be referred to as an application license, is required to perform each procedure using our laser system. A procedure license represents a one-time right to utilize the system surgical application in connection with a surgery procedure. Service revenue is derived from the sale of extended warranties for our laser systems that provide additional maintenance and service beyond our standard limited warranty. In some situations, we lease our laser systems to surgeons, primarily through non-cancellable leases with a fixed lease payment. We consider all components of our revenue to be recurring source revenue, with the exception of sales of our systems. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, approximately 86% of our revenue was attributable to recurring sources.

76

Cost of Revenue

Total cost of revenue comprises cost of product revenue, cost of lease revenue and cost of service revenue.

Cost of product revenue primarily consists of the raw materials used in the manufacture of our products, plant overhead, personnel costs, such as salaries and wages, including stock-based compensation and benefits, packaging costs, depreciation expense, freight and other related costs, which include shipping, inspection and excess and obsolete inventory charges. Cost of service revenue primarily consists of costs associated with providing maintenance services under our standard limited warranty as well as extended warranty contracts. Cost of lease revenue primarily consists of depreciation expense associated with leased equipment and shipping costs associated with delivery of these systems.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, such as salaries and wages, including stock-based compensation and benefits, professional fees, marketing, insurance, travel and other expenses.

We are continuing to grow our sales efforts in the United States. We expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in association with our planned growth. Additionally, we anticipate additional increases in selling, general and administrative expenses as we commercialize the ALLY System and make it more broadly available.

Research and Development Expense

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of engineering, product development, clinical studies to develop and support our products, personnel costs, such as salaries and wages, including stock-based compensation and benefits, regulatory expenses, and other costs associated with products and technologies that are in development. Currently, our research and development expense primarily consists of costs associated with the continued development of our next generation system, the ALLY System, which combines all of the features from our LENSAR Laser System with a dual-pulse laser, integrated in a small, compact cataract treatment system that is designed to allow surgeons to perform a sterile femtosecond laser assisted cataract procedure in a single operating room or in-office surgical suite. Further development of the ALLY System is designed to combine our existing femtosecond laser technology with an option to add a phacoemulsification system into an integrated cataract treatment system. The Company recognized pre-launch inventory costs as research and development expenses through April 30, 2022, when future commercialization of our ALLY System was considered probable and the future economic benefit was expected to be realized.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives consist primarily of acquired trademarks, acquired technology, and customer relationships. Acquired trademarks and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 15 to 20 years. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis or a double declining basis over their estimated useful lives up to 20 years, based on the method that better represents the economic benefits to be obtained.

Income Taxes

Changes in our tax rates or exposure to additional tax liabilities could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition. Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated the option of expensing all research and development expenditures in the current year, instead requiring amortization over five years for expenditures in the United States and over fifteen years for foreign-based expenditures, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code of 1986, Section 174, or Section 174. In the future, Congress may consider legislation that would eliminate the capitalization and amortization requirement. There is no assurance that the requirement will be deferred, repealed or otherwise modified. The impact of Section 174 on the Company’s cash from operations depends primarily on the amount of research and development expenditures incurred and whether the Internal Revenue Service issues guidance on the provision which differs from our current interpretation.

77

Seasonality

We have historically experienced seasonal variations in the sales and leases of our products, with our fourth quarter typically being the strongest and the first or third quarter being the slowest. We believe these seasonal variations are consistent across our industry.

Revenue

Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $35.4 million, an increase of 2.6% when compared to total revenue of $34.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 decreased by $0.3 million, or 1.1%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower average selling price per procedure offset by increased procedure volume, which amounted to a $0.2 million decrease, during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The following table provides information about procedure volume:

Service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $0.2 million.

Geographically, the United States represented 64% of product and service revenues for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Lease revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $0.9 million, or 19.1%, primarily due to increased leased systems.

Cost of Revenue

Total cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $15.4 million, a decrease of 7.4% when compared to total cost of revenue of $16.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

78

Cost of product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 decreased by $2.9 million or 24.8%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the number of system sales, which have a lower gross margin than procedure licenses.

Cost of service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $1.1 million or 33.6%. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in service volume due to an increase in installed LENSAR Laser Systems and ALLY Systems.

Cost of lease revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 increased by $0.6 million, or 41.2%, primarily due to an increase in the number of newly leased systems between the years, which have a higher depreciation cost than older and some fully depreciated leased systems.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $27.2 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 13.7%, compared to $23.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was due to increases in sales and marketing expenses of $1.3 million, which was primarily the result of increased trade show and commercial activity related to the promotion of the ALLY System, and professional fees of $1.5 million. We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to continue to increase from current levels to support the commercialization of the ALLY System.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses were $11.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 4.4%, compared to $12.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Research and development expenses in the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased from 2021 associated with the 510(k) submission to the FDA and subsequent U.S. FDA clearance of the ALLY System in June 2022. Inventory costs for the manufacture of ALLY Systems of $3.4 million and $3.7 million were included in research and development expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets was approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was consistent with the year ended December 31, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We prepare and analyze operating and financial data and non-GAAP measures to assess the performance of our business, make strategic and offering decisions and build our financial projections. The key non-GAAP measures we use, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, are reconciled to net loss below for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Year Ended December 31,

Less: Interest income (263 ) (51 )

Add: Stock-based compensation expense 6,611 6,866

EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expenses. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is included in this filing because we believe that EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of actual results on a comparable basis with historical results. Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation expense, provides meaningful supplemental information for investors when evaluating our results and comparing us to peer companies as stock-based compensation expense is a significant non-cash charge due to the recapitalization of the Company. We use these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial

79

results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP measures and their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance and, therefore, any non-GAAP measures we use may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors should not consider our non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had net losses of $19.9 million and $19.6 million, respectively, and, as of December 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $97.5 million. We expect to continue to incur losses and operating cash outflows for the near-term future as we continue to build our commercial and clinical infrastructure and pursue further regulatory clearances of our ALLY System.

Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, cash from the sale and lease of our systems and the sale of our consumables. We maintain cash balances with financial institutions in excess of insured limits. As discussed above, ongoing global supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures and other macroeconomic conditions have negatively affected our capital requirements and more operating capital may be needed to fund our operations in the future. As of December 31, 2022, we expect our current cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from the future sale and lease of our products, to be sufficient to operate our business. Based on our current operating plan, we believe we have sufficient cash and cash equivalents on hand to support current operations for at least one year from the date of issuance of the financial statements included in this Annual Report. However, our liquidity beyond one year from the date of issuance of the financial statements is contingent upon, among other things, meeting or exceeding revenue and manufacturing targets in our current operating plan. This condition could raise potential doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in the future. In order to mitigate our current and potential future liquidity issues, we will need to seek additional capital which may be through the equity or debt financings, borrowings under credit facilities or from other sources. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding on acceptable terms, if at all.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase from current levels due to the continued commercial launch of the ALLY System, particularly if supply chain constraints begin to ease. The successful commercialization of the ALLY System depends in part on the Company’s ability to produce the ALLY System in sufficient quantities, within requested timing and at an acceptable price to satisfy customer demand. Ongoing supply chain disruptions, unavailability of various parts needed to manufacture the ALLY System and price increases of component parts may have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to meet customer demand for the ALLY System.

Our liquidity needs will be largely determined by our ability to successfully commercialize our products and the progression, additional regulatory clearances or certifications and launch of the ALLY System in additional jurisdictions in the future.

In 2022, we transitioned from manufacturing and selling our LENSAR Laser System to focus on our ALLY System. In September 2022, we submitted the ALLY System for certification in the EU and we intend to submit additional marketing or certification applications outside the United States in an effort to commercialize the ALLY System in additional countries and operating regions. Our growth, market presence and ability to sell the ALLY System will depend on whether the ALLY System receives regulatory clearance in other regions outside the United States and the timing of these clearance or certifications, among other factors. In addition, based on inventory of our LENSAR Laser System, our future revenue and cash flows will depend on, among other factors, our installed base of systems and the timing of and applicable clearances for our ALLY System.

We expect we will need to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings, borrowings under credit facilities or from other sources to continue our operations. We may issue securities, including common stock, preferred stock, warrants, and/or debt securities through private placement transactions or registered public offerings in the future. If we issue equity securities to raise additional capital, our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new

80

equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting our operations or our ability to incur additional debt. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional capital through collaboration, licensing or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our products, potential products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

Our ability to raise additional funds will depend, among other factors, on financial, economic and market conditions, many of which are outside of our control, and we may be unable to raise financing when needed, or on terms favorable to us. If the necessary funds are not available from these sources, we may have to delay, reduce or suspend the scope of our sales and marketing efforts, research and development activities, or other components of our operations. Any of these events could adversely affect our ability to achieve our business and financial goals or to achieve or maintain profitability and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, the extent and duration of the impact that global economic uncertainty may have on our stock price and on those of other companies in our industry is highly uncertain and may make us look less attractive to investors and, as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, our stock price may be more volatile, and our ability to raise capital could be impaired, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity and financial position.

We expect our revenue and expenses to increase in connection with our on-going activities, particularly as we continue to execute on our growth strategy, including expansion of our sales and customer support teams. The primary factors determining our cash needs are the funding of operations, which we expect to continue to expand as the business grows, and enhancing our product offerings through the commercialization of the ALLY System, our next generation cataract treatment system. Our future liquidity needs, and ability to address those needs, will largely be determined by the success of our commercial efforts and those of our distributors; the ongoing impact of COVID-19 and supply chain issues on our business; and the timing, scope and magnitude of our commercial and development activities.

Our material contractual obligations and commercial commitments at December 31, 2022 primarily consist of $2.8 million in operating lease liabilities for our facility lease and $5.8 million in remaining minimum purchase obligations for inventory components for the manufacture and supply of certain components within the next 24 months. Our contractual obligations have increased due to supply chain issues that have necessitated us to enter into longer-term and more expensive per unit contracts to build and source inventory to satisfy the expected commercial demand for the ALLY System, if approved by regulatory authorities or certified by notified bodies in the applicable regions. We expect to meet these requirements through cash and cash equivalents and cash provided by operations. Some of these amounts are based on management’s estimates and assumptions about these obligations, including their duration, timing, anticipated actions by third parties and other factors. Because these estimates and assumptions are necessarily subjective, the obligations we will actually pay in future periods may vary from those described. Furthermore, the Company acquired certain intellectual property, which would result in additional royalty payments at a rate of 3% of certain revenue upon the phacoemulsification features being cleared for commercialization and operational in the ALLY System.

We currently have an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-255136) filed with the SEC on April 8, 2021 (the “Registration Statement”) under which we may offer from time to time in one or more offerings any combination of common and preferred stock, debt securities, depositary shares, warrants, purchase contracts and units of up to $100.0 million in the aggregate. We also simultaneously entered into a sales agreement with SVB Leerink LLC, as sales agent, providing for the offering, issuance and sale by us of up to an aggregate $35.0 million of our common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” (“ATM”) offerings under the Registration Statement. Any sales by us pursuant to the Registration Statement, including any sales pursuant to the ATM offering, will be subject to any limits imposed under applicable law, including General Instructions I.B.1 and I.B.6 of Form S-3. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we sold 2,000 shares of our common stock, pursuant to ATM offerings, at a weighted average gross sales price of $6.46 per share. Proceeds from the sale were offset by offering costs and commissions associated with the transactions.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $14.9 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $19.9 million and an increase in net operating assets of $5.6 million, partially offset by non-cash charges of $10.6 million. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation. Net operating assets decreased due to accounts receivable net, and inventories offset with accounts payable.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $9.0 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $19.6 million offset by non-cash charges of $10.7 million. Non-cash charges consisted of depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation. Net operating assets remained unchanged due to changes in accounts receivable, net offset with inventory.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $0.1 million, which consisted primarily of capital expenditures for property and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities for year ended December 31, 2021 was $0.4 million, which consisted primarily of capital expenditures for property and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $2.0 million, primarily due to the payment of $2.4 million in contingent consideration due to regulatory approval of the ALLY System offset from proceeds from the sale of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $0.4 million, primarily from the sale of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.

Stock-Based Incentive Plan

The 2020 Incentive Award Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock unit awards and other stock-based awards to recipients. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we granted stock options to directors, employees, and non-employees. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we granted stock options and restricted stock units to employees and non-employees. We intend to grant stock options and restricted stock units as part of our overall compensation package to directors and employees.

At December 31, 2022, there was approximately $2.8 million, $0.3 million, and $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and stock options, respectively, which

82

is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.6 years, 2.2 years, and 2.6 years, respectively. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense is expected to be amortized as follows:

The amounts included in this table are based on restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and stock options outstanding at December 31, 2022 and assumes the requisite service period is fulfilled for all awards outstanding. Actual stock-based compensation expense in future periods may vary from those reflected in the table.

In January 2023, the Company issued its annual equity grant to employees, which resulted in the issuance of 358,000 stock options and 44,000 restricted stock units. The Company also granted 423,000 restricted stock units to non-executive employees as a one-time retention grant. These grants resulted in $0.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, of which $0.1 million will be recognized in 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, and the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and operating results require our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. The impact of accounting estimates and judgments on our financial condition and results of operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic and global macroeconomic conditions originating during the pandemic has introduced additional uncertainties. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to the financial statements. We believe the following accounting policies are the most critical in understanding the estimates and judgments that are involved in preparing our financial statements and the uncertainties that could impact our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Product and Service Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized from the sale of products and services when we transfer control of such promised products and services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these products and services. A five-step model is utilized to achieve the core principle and includes the following steps: (1) identify the customer contract; (2) identify the contract’s performance obligations; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied.

We principally derive our revenue from the sale and lease of systems and the sale of other related products and services, including PIDs, procedure licenses, and extended warranty service agreements. A procedure license represents a one-time right to utilize the system surgical application in connection with a surgery procedure. Without separately procuring procedure licenses granted by us, either together with the purchase of the system or under separate subsequent contracts, the customer does not have the right to use the surgical software application to perform surgical procedures. Typically, returns are not allowed.

Our contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately may require significant judgment. Judgment is required to determine the level of interdependency between the system and the sale of other related products and services. We evaluate each product or service promised

83

in a contract to determine whether it represents a distinct performance obligation. A performance obligation is distinct if (1) the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer and (2) the product or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

For contracts involving the sale or lease of a system, our performance obligations generally include the system, PID, procedure license, and extended warranty service agreements. In addition, our customer contracts contain provisions for installation and training services, which are not assessed as performance obligations as they are determined to be immaterial promises in the context of the contract and are required for a customer to use the system.

We have determined that the system, PID and procedure license are each capable of being distinct because they are each sold separately and the customer can benefit from these products with the other readily available resources that are sold by us. In addition, we have determined each are separately identifiable because the system, PID and procedure license (1) are not highly interdependent or interrelated; (2) do not modify or customize one another; and (3) do not include a significant service of integrating the promised goods into a bundled output. This is because we are able to fulfill each promise in the contract independently of the others and we would be able to fulfill our promise to transfer the system even if the customer did not purchase a PID or procedure license or to fulfill our promise to provide the PID or the procedure license even if the customer acquired the system separately.

The extended warranty, unlike our standard product warranty, is a performance obligation because it provides an incremental service that is beyond ensuring the product delivered will be consistent with stated contractual specifications.

When a contract contains multiple performance obligations, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.

We recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to a customer as described below. We record a contract liability, or deferred revenue, when we have an obligation to provide a product or service to the customer and payment is received or due in advance of our performance.

Product revenue. We recognize revenue for the sale of the products at a point in time when control is transferred to customers.

Equipment. System sales are recognized as Product revenue when the Company transfers control of the system. This usually occurs after the customer signs a contract, we install the system, and we perform the requisite training for use of the system for direct customers. System sales to distributors are recognized as revenue upon shipment as they do not require training and installation.

PID and Procedure Licenses. The system requires both a PID and a procedure license to perform each procedure. We recognize Product revenue for PIDs when we transfer control of the PID. We recognize Product revenue for procedure licenses at the point in time when control of the procedure license is transferred to the customer. A procedure license represents a one-time right to utilize the system surgical application in connection with a procedure. For the sale of PIDs and procedure licenses, we may offer volume discounts to certain customers. To determine the amount of revenue that should be recognized at the time control over these products transfers to the customer, we estimate the average per unit price, net of discounts.

Service revenue. We offer an extended warranty that provides additional maintenance services beyond the standard limited warranty. We recognize Service revenue from the sale of extended warranties over the warranty period on a ratable basis as we stand ready to provide services as needed. Customers have the option of renewing the warranty period, which is considered a new and separate contract.

Lease Revenue

We lease equipment to customers under operating lease arrangements. At contract inception we perform an evaluation to determine if a lease arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. To the extent such rights

84

of control are conveyed, we further make an assessment as to the applicable lease classification. The identification of specified assets and determination of appropriate lease classification may require the use of management judgment.

Some of our operating leases include a purchase option for the customer to purchase the leased asset at the end of the lease arrangement, subject to a new contract. We do not believe the purchase price qualifies as a bargain purchase option.

For lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components where we are the lessor, we allocate the contract’s transaction price (including discounts) to the lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone selling price, which requires judgments. For those leases with variable lease payments, the variable lease payment is typically based upon use of the leased equipment or the purchase of procedure licenses and PIDs used with the leased equipment.

For operating leases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as lease revenue. Depreciation expense associated with the leased equipment under operating lease arrangements is reflected in cost of lease in the statements of operations.

Lessee leases

Lessee operating leases are included in other current liabilities and long-term operating lease liabilities in our balance sheets. We do not have lessee finance leases.

Operating lease ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our 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. Lease payments are discounted using our incremental borrowing rate as of the commencement date of each lease. Our remaining lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis as operating expense in our statements of operations over the lease term.

Inventory

Inventory, which consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory levels are analyzed periodically on a first-in, first-out basis and written down to their net realizable value if they have become obsolete, have a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value or are in excess of expected requirements. We analyze current and future product demand relative to the remaining product shelf life to identify potential excess inventory. We build demand forecasts by considering factors such as, but not limited to, overall market potential, market share, market acceptance and patient usage.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Therefore, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

We intend to rely on other exemptions provided by the JOBS Act, including without limitation, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the last day of our first fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of more than $1.07 billion; (2) the date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer,” meaning, as of December 31, the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates as of the prior June

85

30 exceeded $700.0 million; (3) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period; and (4) December 31, 2025 (the fiscal year-end following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the Spin-Off).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for a discussion of recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of December 31, 2022.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $14.7 million as of December 31, 2022. Our cash and cash equivalents are held in deposit demand accounts at a large financial institution in amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance coverage limit of $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. Management has reviewed the financial situation and government guarantees to depositors of this financial institution and believe there to be little or no credit risk to us. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have had a material impact on the value of our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of accounts receivable and notes receivable. We limit our credit risk with respect to accounts receivable and notes receivable by performing credit evaluations when deemed necessary, but we do not require collateral to secure amounts owed to us by our customers. We do have the ability to disable the system’s ability to operate for lack of payment and, in the case of notes receivable, repossess the system if scheduled payments lapse. As of December 31, 2022, no customers accounted for 10% or more of our accounts receivable, net.

We currently have limited exposure to foreign currency fluctuations and do not engage in any hedging activities as part of our normal course of business.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The financial statements required to be filed pursuant to this Item 8 are appended to this Annual Report and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our 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 judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on this evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2022.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TotheBoard of Directors and Stockholders of LENSAR, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of LENSAR, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, of changes in stockholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the years then ended, including the related notes (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, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (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 of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

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.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company's ability to fund its future operations is contingent upon meeting or exceeding the current operating plan, if not, the Company will require additional financing to fund future operations. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are described in Note 1 to the financial statements.

Note 1. Overview and Basis of Presentation

Overview and Organization

LENSAR, Inc. (“LENSAR” or the “Company”) is a global medical device business focused on the design, development and commercialization of advanced technology for the treatment of cataracts and management of astigmatism to achieve improved visual outcomes for patients. The Company is a public company whose stock is listed and trading under the symbol “LNSR” on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). The Company’s revenue is derived from the sale and lease of the Company’s laser systems, which may include equipment, a consumable referred to as the Patient Interface Device (“PID”), procedure licenses, training, installation, limited warranty and maintenance agreements through extended warranty. The Company has developed its next-generation ALLY® Adaptive Cataract Treatment System (“ALLY System”), which combines all of the features from the LENSAR Laser System with a dual-pulse laser, integrated in a small, compact cataract treatment system that is designed to allow surgeons to perform a sterile femtosecond laser assisted cataract procedure in a single operating room or in-office surgical suite. The ALLY System, which has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), enables cataract surgeons to complete the femtosecond-laser-assisted cataract surgery (“FLACS”) procedure in a single, sterile environment. The Company executed a controlled and targeted initial launch of the ALLY System beginning in August 2022. The ALLY System is expected to be made widely available to U.S. cataract surgeons in 2023. In addition, we submitted the ALLY System for certification in the European Union, or EU, in September 2022 and intend to submit additional marketing or certification applications outside the United States in an effort to commercialize the ALLY System in additional countries and operating regions. The Company’s ability to place systems in 2022 was limited by supply chain constraints that delayed the delivery of certain ALLY System raw materials and the completion and testing of ALLY Systems for use as launch-stock inventory.

The Company has incurred recurring losses and operating cash outflows since its inception and as of December 31, 2022 had an accumulated deficit of $97,508. The Company expects to continue to incur losses and cash outflows from operating activities for the near-term future. In addition, the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, including supply chain shortages, inflationary pressures and price increases that originated during the pandemic. The Company has experienced some supply chain disruptions and increased costs or unavailability of various component parts needed for the development and supply of the ALLY System originally connected with the COVID-19 pandemic, including increasing lead times required for the ordering of component parts to meet targeted production goals and unpredictability with respect to the availability and delivery timing of these parts. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak, and current or future variants, will further negatively impact the Company’s business or operating results cannot be determined with certainty at this time. To date, the Company has maintained sufficient inventory to mitigate significant adverse impact from such disruptions and unavailability in the near-term and to facilitate the initial launch of the ALLY System; however, the Company is continuing to monitor developments with respect to such disruptions and their potential impact on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. If these supply chain shortages and disruptions continue or worsen, or the Company is unable to find suitable alternative component parts, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to meet customer demand for the ALLY System following its initial launch. In addition, pricing increases in component parts for the ALLY System resulting from inflationary pressures and related macroeconomic conditions may necessitate an increase in overall cost to customers, which in turn may have an adverse impact on customer demand.

Management believes the Company’s cash and cash equivalents on hand, together with cash generated from the future sale and lease of products, will provide sufficient funds for its operating, investing, and financing cash flows for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. However, the Company's liquidity beyond one year from the date of issuance of the financial statements is contingent upon meeting or exceeding the current operating plan. With the commercial launch of the ALLY System, the Company expects annual revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses to increase from current levels. In addition, the successful commercialization of the ALLY System depends in part on the Company’s ability to produce the ALLY System in sufficient quantities, within requested timelines and at an acceptable price to satisfy customer demand. The Company’s liquidity needs will be largely determined by the Company’s ability to successfully commercialize its products and the progression, additional regulatory clearances or certifications and launch of the ALLY System in additional

F-7

jurisdictions in the future. Such success will depend in part on the availability of the necessary component parts for the ALLY System. The Company expects it will need to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings, borrowings under credit facilities or from other sources to continue its operations beyond the twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. The Company may issue securities, including common stock, preferred stock, warrants, and/or debt securities through private placement transactions or registered public offerings in the future. The Company’s ability to raise additional funds will depend, among other factors, on financial, economic and market conditions, many of which are outside of the Company’s control, and the Company may be unable to raise financing when needed, or on terms favorable to the Company. If the necessary funds are not available from these sources, the Company may have to delay, reduce or suspend the scope of its sales and marketing efforts, research and development activities, or other components of its operations.

Basis of Presentation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes to the financial statements. The accounting estimates that require management’s most significant, difficult and subjective judgments include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition and allowance for expected credit losses, the valuation of notes receivable and inventory, the assessment of recoverability of intangible assets and their estimated useful lives, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation, operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, and the recognition and measurement of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Management evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis as there are changes in circumstances, facts, and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The COVID-19 pandemic and global macroeconomic conditions originating during the pandemic continue to directly and indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition, including revenue, expenses, reserves and allowances. The Company continues to monitor developments that are highly uncertain, including supply chain disruptions and price increases, as well as the economic impact on domestic and international suppliers, customers, and markets. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that require consideration of forecasted financial information, including, but not limited to, its current expected credit losses, the carrying value of the Company's intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and valuation allowances in context with the information reasonably available to the Company and the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 as of December 31, 2022 and through the date of this report. As a result of these assessments, there were no impairments or material increases in expected credit losses or valuation allowances that impacted the Company's financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. However, the Company's future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other macroeconomic factors, could result in material impacts to the financial statements in future reporting periods.

As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to update estimates, judgments or revise the carrying value of any assets or liabilities.

Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company has determined that it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment as the CODM reviews financial information presented on an entity-wide basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, 92% and 89% of long-lived

F-8

assets were in the United States, respectively. Revenue is attributed to a geographic region based on the location of the customer.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions and, at times, exceeds federally insured limits. By policy, the Company limits the amount of credit exposure in any one financial instrument.

Accounts Receivable

The Company had $69 and $110 for allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company makes estimates of the collectability of accounts receivable. In doing so, the Company analyzes historical bad debt trends, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends, changes in customer payment patterns, and possible impact of current conditions and reasonable forecasts not already reflected in historical loss information when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. Amounts are charged off against the allowance for credit losses when the Company determines that recovery is unlikely, and the Company ceases collection efforts.

Fair Value Measurement

The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are estimates of the amounts that would be received if the Company were to sell an asset or the Company paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date or exit price. The assets and liabilities are categorized and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1—based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2—based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—based on unobservable inputs using management’s best estimate and assumptions when inputs are unavailable.

Fair value measurements are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current liabilities approximate fair value based on the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s notes receivable also approximates fair value based on the associated credit risk.

Inventory

Inventory, which consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company determines cost using standard costs which approximates actual costs determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Inventory levels are analyzed periodically and written down to their net realizable value if they have become obsolete, have a cost basis in excess of expected net realizable value or are in excess of expected requirements. The Company analyzes current and future product demand relative to the remaining product shelf life to identify potential excess inventory. The Company builds demand forecasts by considering factors such as, but not limited to, overall market potential, market share, market acceptance and patient usage. The Company classifies inventory as current on the balance sheets when the Company expects inventory to be consumed for commercial use within the next twelve months.

F-9

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives consist primarily of acquired product rights, acquired technology, and customer relationships. Acquired product rights and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 15 to 20 years. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis or a double declining basis over their estimated useful lives up to 20 years, based on the method that better represents the economic benefits to be obtained. The estimated useful lives associated with finite-lived intangible assets are consistent with the estimated lives of the associated products and may be modified when circumstances warrant. Such assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. The Company did not record any impairment of its intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or term of lease

Research and development equipment 3-8 years

Manufacturing equipment 3-5 years

Computer and office equipment 3 years

Transportation equipment 3-5 years

Furniture and fixtures 7 years

Software 3 years

Equipment Under Lease

Equipment under lease is related to systems which are leased to customers instead of sold. Equipment under operating lease is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and is classified as Equipment under lease, net on the balance sheets. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of the greater of the lease term or five years to ten years.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

Policy Elections and Practical Expedients Taken

The Company applies the following policy elections:

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient that allows an entity to not adjust the promised amount of consideration in customer contracts for the effect of a significant financing component when the period between the transfer of product and services and payment of the related consideration is less than one year.

Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of product revenue. Shipping and handling costs for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $157 and $245, respectively.

General

Revenue is recognized from the sale of products and services when the Company transfers control of such promised products and services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to

F-10

be entitled to receive in exchange for these products and services. A five-step model is utilized to achieve the core principle and includes the following steps: (1) identify the customer contract; (2) identify the contract’s performance obligations; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company principally derives its revenue from the sale and lease of systems and the sale of other related products and services, including PIDs, procedure licenses, and extended warranty service agreements. Most customers are on pre-paid or 30-day payment terms, depending on the product purchased. Typically, returns are not allowed.

Judgment is required to determine the level of interdependency between the system and the sale of other related products and services. For bundled packages, which include the sale or lease of a system and provision of other products and services, the Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct—i.e., if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package and if the customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The system, training and installation services are one performance obligation. The other products and services, including PIDs, procedure licenses, and extended warranty services, which are either sold together with the system or on a standalone basis, are all accounted for as separate performance obligations. The transaction price of bundled packages is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices are based on observable prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services. If a standalone selling price is not directly observable, the Company estimates the selling price using available observable information.

The Company recognizes revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to a customer, as described below.

Product Revenue. The Company recognizes revenue for the sale of the following products at a point in time:

Equipment. The Company’s LENSAR Laser System and ALLY System sales are recognized as Product revenue when the Company transfers control of the system. This usually occurs after the customer signs a contract, the Company installs the system, and the Company performs the requisite training for use of the system for direct customers. System sales to distributors are recognized as revenue upon shipment as they do not require training and installation.

PID and Procedure Licenses. The systems require both a PID and a procedure license to perform each procedure. The Company recognizes Product revenue for PIDs when the Company transfers control of the PID. The Company recognizes Product revenue for procedure licenses at the point in time when control of the procedure license is transferred to the customer. A procedure license represents a one-time right to utilize the system surgical application in connection with a surgery procedure. For the sale of PIDs and procedure licenses, the Company may offer volume discounts to certain customers. To determine the amount of revenue that should be recognized at the time control over these products transfers to the customer, the Company estimates the average per unit price, net of discounts.

Service Revenue. The Company offers an extended warranty that provides additional maintenance services beyond the standard limited warranty. The Company recognizes Service revenue from the sale of extended warranties over the warranty period on a ratable basis as the Company stands ready to provide services as needed. Customers have the option of renewing the warranty period, which is considered a new and separate contract.

Lease Revenue. For system operating leases, the Company recognizes lease revenue over the length of the lease in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”). For additional information regarding accounting for leases, see the Leases section within this footnote below and Note 5, Leases.

Contract Costs

The Company offers a variety of commission plans to the Company’s salesforce. Certain compensation under these plans is earned by sales representatives solely as a result of obtaining a customer contract. These are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract and are eligible for capitalization under ASC Topic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs – Contracts with Customers, to the extent they are recoverable. Incremental costs of obtaining a

F-11

contract are deferred over the period the related revenue is recognized and the Company has elected not to defer costs related to goods or services to be delivered over a period that is one year or less.

Significant Financing Component

The Company provides extended payment terms to certain customers that represent a significant financing component. The Company adjusts the amount of promised consideration for the time value of money using its discount rate and recognizes interest income separate from the revenue recognized on contracts with customers.

Limited Warranty Obligations

The Company offers limited warranties on the Company’s products which provide the customer assurance that the product will function as the parties intended because it complies with agreed-upon specifications; therefore, these assurance-type warranties are not treated as a separate revenue performance obligation and are accounted for as guarantees under U.S. GAAP. The Company regularly reviews its warranty liability and updates these balances based on historical warranty cost trends.

Concentrations of Customers

For the year ended December 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 10% of the Company’s revenue and no customers accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable, net as of December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, two customers accounted for 16%, and 13% of the Company’s revenue, respectively, and three customers accounted for 37%, 13%, and 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable, net, respectively, as of December 31, 2021.

Research and Development

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development expenses consist primarily of engineering, product development, clinical studies to develop and support the Company’s products, regulatory expenses, and other costs associated with products and technologies that are in development. Research and development expenses include employee compensation, including stock-based compensation, supplies, consulting, prototypes, testing, materials, travel expenses, and depreciation. Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 included $3.4 million and $3.7 million of ALLY System inventory costs. Following the Company's receipt of 510(k) clearance for the ALLY System from the FDA in June 2022, all ALLY System inventory costs were capitalized to inventory.

Income Taxes

The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local corporate income taxes at the entity level.

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current liability is recognized for the estimated taxes payable for the current year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are adjusted for enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws in the year in which such laws are enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company adjusts the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. Any interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions are included within the tax provision.

F-12

Leases

The Company accounts for leasing arrangements in accordance with ASC Topic 842.The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains an embedded lease at inception if it contains the right to control the use of an identified asset under a leasing arrangement with an initial term greater than 12 months. The Company determines whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time if the contract contains both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

Policy Elections and Practical Expedients Taken

The Company has lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

For leases that commenced before the effective date of ASC 842, the Company elected the practical expedients to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases; (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases.

For short term leases, defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, the Company elected to not recognize an associated lease liability and right of use (“ROU”) asset. Lease payments for short term leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has a policy to exclude from the consideration in a lessor contract all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific lease revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a lessee.

Lessee Arrangements

Lessee operating right of use assets are included in Other assets in the Company’s balance sheet. Lessee operating lease liabilities are included in Operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company does not have lessee financing leases.

Operating lease ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its 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 remaining lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable at lease inception. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date, including the lease term and the Company’s credit risk, in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s remaining 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 as operating expense in the statements of operations over the lease term.

For lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components where the Company is the lessee, the Company separately accounts for lease and non-lease components, which consists primarily of common area maintenance services. Non-lease components are expensed as incurred.

Lessor Arrangements

The Company leases equipment to customers under operating leases. Leases are generally not cancellable until after an initial term and may or may not require the customer to purchase a minimum number of procedures and consumables throughout the contract term.

For lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components where the Company is the lessor, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price (including discounts) to the lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone selling price basis using the Company’s best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct product or service in the contract. Lease elements generally include a system, while non-lease elements generally include extended warranty services, PIDs and procedure licenses. The stand-alone selling prices for the extended warranty services,

F-13

PIDs and procedure licenses are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells such products and services. The system stand-alone selling prices are determined using the expected cost plus a margin approach. Allocation of the transaction price is determined at the inception of the lease arrangement. The Company’s leases primarily consist of leases with fixed lease payments. For those leases with variable lease payments, the variable lease payment is typically based upon use of the leased equipment or the purchase of procedure licenses and consumables used with the leased equipment. Non-lease components are accounted for under ASC 606. For additional information regarding ASC 606, see Note 3, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Some leases include options to extend the leases on a month-to-month basis if the customer does not notify the Company of the intention to return the equipment at the end of the lease term. The Company typically does not offer options to terminate the leases before the end of the lease term. A new contract is generated if a customer intends to continue using the equipment under the initial term and the new contract term is not included in the initial lease term.

In determining whether a transaction should be classified as a sales-type or operating lease, the Company considers the following criteria at lease commencement: (1) whether title of the system transfers automatically or for a nominal fee by the end of the lease term, (2) whether the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the leased system, (3) whether the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the leased system, (4) whether the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the leased system that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise, and (5) whether the underlying system is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term. If any of these criteria are met, the lease is classified as a sales-type lease. If none of these criteria are met the lease is classified as an operating lease. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company does not have any sales-type leases.

For operating leases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as lease revenue. The cost of customer-leased equipment is recorded within equipment under lease, net in the balance sheets and depreciated over the equipment’s estimated useful life. Depreciation expense associated with the leased equipment under operating lease arrangements is reflected in cost of lease in the statements of operations. Some of the Company’s operating leases include a purchase option for the customer to purchase the leased asset at the end of the lease arrangement, subject to a new contract. The purchase price does not qualify as a bargain purchase option. The Company manages its risk on its investment in the equipment through pricing and the term of the leases. Lessees do not provide residual value guarantees on leased equipment. Equipment returned to the Company may be leased or sold to other customers. Initial direct costs, recorded in prepaid and other current assets, are deferred and recognized over the lease term.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, (“ASC 718”). Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is generally expensed over the requisite service period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized using a straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period, except for portions of awards subject to performance conditions, which will be recognized ratably over the service period for each separate performance vesting tranche once it is probable the performance condition will be met. The Company made accounting policy elections to account for modifications to the requisite service period using the bifurcated approach and to account for forfeitures as they occur.

See Note 11, Stock-Based Compensation, for a discussion of stock-based compensation plans.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

The Company reviewed recent pronouncements issued by the FASB and other authoritative standards groups with future effective dates and concluded the pronouncements are either not applicable to the Company or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Lessee Arrangements

The Company has an operating lease for a corporate office. In August 2020, the Company amended the lease to extend through November 30, 2027 commencing on September 1, 2020. The lease amendment constitutes a modification as it extends the original lease term, which requires evaluation of the remeasurement of the lease liability and corresponding right-of-use-asset. The reassessment resulted in continuing to classify the lease as an operating lease and remeasurement of the lease liability on the basis of the extended lease term and the incremental borrowing rate at

It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 22 headings are on that chain and 16 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
