Description of Business
Strata Critical Medical, Inc. (“Strata” or the “Company”) is a time-critical logistics and medical services provider to the United States healthcare industry. The Company operates one of the nation’s largest air transport and surgical services networks for transplant hospitals and organ procurement organizations, offering an integrated “one call” solution for donor organ recovery. Strata’s core services include air and ground logistics, surgical organ recovery, organ placement and normothermic regional perfusion for the transplant industry, as well as perfusion staffing and equipment solutions for cardiovascular surgery centers, offered under the Trinity Medical Solutions (“Trinity”) and Keystone Perfusion brands.

Strata’s mission is to increase the number of organs that are successfully transplanted while leveraging the Company’s expertise and resources to provide other medical and logistics services to a broader customer base. Strata’s goals are closely aligned with those of all participants in the transplant ecosystem, including transplant centers, regulators, Organ Procurement Organizations (“OPOs”) and other service providers.

On August 29, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its Passenger business to Joby Aero, Inc. (“Joby Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Joby Aviation, Inc. (“Joby Aviation”). The sale followed the separation of the Passenger business, which provided air and ground transportation services for passengers on third-party aircraft, from the Company’s remaining medical operations.

On September 16, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Keystone Perfusion Services, LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company (“Keystone”), an organ recovery and normothermic regional perfusion service provider to the transplant industry, pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated September 16, 2025 (the “Keystone Purchase Agreement”).
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Management’s opinion is that all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

As discussed in Note 3, on August 29, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its Passenger business to Joby Buyer pursuant to the Joby Purchase Agreement (as defined below), dated August 1, 2025.

The results of the Passenger business are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of the Passenger business have been reflected as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets for all prior periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures included in these notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect only our continuing operations. Refer to Note 3 for additional details on discontinued operations. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Short-Term Investments
Held-to-Maturity Securities
The Company’s investments in held-to-maturity securities consist of investment grade U.S. Treasury obligations with maturity dates of less than 365 days. The Company has the ability and intention to hold these securities until maturity. Accordingly, these securities are recorded in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheet at
amortized cost and interest is recorded within interest income on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations. The held-to-maturity securities balance and fair market value at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $53,165 and $53,164, and $108,757 and $108,832, respectively. The held-to-maturity securities gross unrealized holding loss as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 were $1 and $199, respectively. The fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair market value is Level 2.
Concentrations

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists principally of cash amounts on deposit with financial institutions. At times, the Company’s cash in banks is in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit. The Company has not experienced any loss as a result of these deposits.

Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase price of an acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of these net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Fair value of the acquired intangible assets was determined using an income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method or relief-from-royalty method, depending on the nature of the respective assets. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but the estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. The significant judgments and assumptions used in valuing the developed technology and trademark include revenue growth rates, EBITDA margin, tax rate, the discount rate, and the royalty rate. For customer relationships, the significant judgments and assumptions include revenue growth rates, customer attrition rate, EBITDA margin, tax rate, contributory asset valuations, and the discount rate. These estimates are inherently uncertain and, therefore, actual results may differ from the estimates made. As a result, during the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may make adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the measurement period’s conclusion or final determination of the fair value of the purchase price of an acquisition, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations in the period they are identified. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and expensed as incurred.

Certain business combinations include contingent consideration arrangements, which are generally based on achievement of future financial performance or future events. If it is determined the contingent consideration arrangement is not compensatory, the Company estimates fair value of contingent consideration payments as part of the initial purchase price and records the estimated fair value of contingent consideration as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company reviews and assesses the estimated fair value of contingent consideration each reporting period, and the updated fair value could differ materially from the initial estimates. Changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations.

Use of 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. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current business factors, and various other assumptions that the Company believes are necessary to consider to form a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the recorded amounts of revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company is subject to uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic and political factors, and changes in the Company’s business environment; therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment evolves.
Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes in estimates and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations; if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Significant estimates and assumptions by management include, but are not limited to, the fair value of contingent consideration, intangible assets, goodwill and stock-based payment liability-classified awards.
