Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in various legal claims, litigation and other matters that arise in the normal course of its operations. Although there can be no assurances and the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company currently believes that none of these claims, actions or proceedings are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position. In addition, the Company’s accounting policy is to recognize legal fees as they are incurred.
The Company records accruals for its outstanding legal proceedings, investigations or claims when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluated developments in legal proceedings, investigations or claims that could affect the amount of any accrual, as well as any developments that would result in a loss contingency to become both probable and reasonably estimable. There were no loss contingencies associated with legal claims, actions or litigation as of December 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Contract Manufacturer Loss Contingencies
As a result of the cancellation of the series production award in December 2023, the Company cancelled production contracts with certain contract manufacturers. This led to the Company’s receipt of project loss claims from contract manufacturers prior to December 31, 2023. The loss claims include item costs for which the Company believes it is not liable based on contractual rights and obligations created by legal agreements with the contract manufacturers. The Company believes that a loss from these specific item costs is reasonably possible but not probable, and as a result no accrual has been made as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company estimates the reasonably possible
range of loss to be from zero to approximately $1.3 million. The Company will continue to assess the situation with its contract manufacturers and will update its position as needed.
Other Contingencies
As a result of the series production award cancellation, the Company sent a claim to Koito seeking recovery of a significant amount in project losses. The claim covers costs associated with materials, tooling, engineering, and other related project costs. The Company is seeking recovery during the first quarter of 2024, however a formal recovery timeline has not been agreed to and is unknown at this time. As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined recovery was uncertain and the claim amount was neither estimable, realized nor realizable. Therefore, a gain contingency was not recognized in the Company’s financial statements.
