COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Purchase Commitments
As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $0.4 million in outstanding purchase commitments for inventory. Of this amount, $0.3 million is expected to ship in the first quarter of 2026 and $0.1 million is expected to ship in the second quarter of 2026. We have 92% of the outstanding purchase commitments with related parties.
Settlement of Return of Slow-Moving Inventory
On December 30, 2024, in connection with its strategy to reduce a certain quantity of low-turnover inventory, the Company entered into an agreement with the vendor, an unrelated party, to return the inventory purchased between 2021 and 2022 and transfer EnFocus™ registered trademarks (carrying amount of $0 as of December 31,2024).

The transaction was completed in the second quarter of 2025, at which time the inventory return, cancellation of prepayments, and settlement of outstanding accounts payable were finalized. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash loss of approximately $8 thousand in 2025.

About Commitments Disclosures

Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.

Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
