Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation	Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Organization Owlet Baby Care Inc. was incorporated on February 24, 2014 as a Delaware corporation. On February 15, 2021, Owlet Baby Care Inc. ("Old Owlet") entered into a Merger Agreement with Sandbridge Acquisition Corporation ("SBG") and Project Olympus Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), whereby on July 15, 2021 Merger Sub merged with and into Old Owlet, with Old Owlet surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of SBG (the "Merger"). Following the Merger, SBG was renamed Owlet, Inc. ("Owlet", "OWLT", or the "Company"). The Company’s ecosystem of digital parenting solutions is helping to transform modern parenting by providing parents data to track the sleep patterns of their children. Its solutions are designed to provide insights aimed at improving children’s sleep and parents’ confidence and comfort. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding financial reporting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, in the notes are presented in thousands, unless otherwise specified. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Reverse Stock Split On July 7, 2023, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to effect a one-for-14 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock and a reduction in the number of authorized shares of common stock and authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s preferred stock. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock was reduced from 1,000,000,000 shares to 107,142,857 shares, which reflects a reduction to 1.5 times the then current number of authorized shares of Common Stock, divided by the Reverse Stock Split ratio. The Reverse Stock Split also reduced the number of authorized shares of preferred stock from 100,000,000 shares to 10,741,071 shares, which reflects a reduction to 1.5 times the then current number of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, divided by the Reverse Stock Split ratio. The Reverse Stock Split became effective on July 7, 2023. There was no net effect on total stockholders' equity, and the par value per share of our common stock remains unchanged at $0.0001 per share after the Reverse Stock Split. All references made to share or per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and applicable disclosures have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to reflect the applicable effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the reduction in the number of authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock effected by the Charter Amendment. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Key management estimates include those related to revenue recognition (including standalone selling price, usage period of hardware products sold, sales incentives, product returns and implied post contract support and service), allowances for doubtful accounts, write-downs for obsolete or slow-moving inventory, useful lives for property and equipment, impairment assessments for long-lived tangible and intangible assets, warranty obligations, valuation allowances for net deferred income tax assets, uncertain tax positions, and valuation of warrants and stock-based compensation. Risks and Uncertainties In accordance with ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. Since inception, the Company has experienced recurring operating losses and generated negative cash flows from operations, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $255,659 as of December 31, 2023. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had negative cash flows from operations of $23,527 and $81,380, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had $16,557 of cash on hand. Year over year declines in revenue, recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from operations since inception, and a low cash balance relative to current debt obligations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the accompanying consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and accordingly, do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts, or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As the Company continues to address these financial conditions, management has undertaken the following actions: •As described further in Note 9, on February 17, 2023, the Company consummated a sale of preferred stock and warrants to purchase its common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $30,000. As described further in Note 14, on February 29, 2024, the Company consummated a sale of preferred stock and warrants to purchase its common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $9,250. •As described in Note 6, the Company has entered into amendments to its financing arrangement with SVB, which, among other revisions, (i) deferred certain payments of principal by the Company until September 1, 2023, (ii) deferred the maturity of the revolving line of credit from April 22, 2024 to December 31, 2024, (iii) had SVB waive certain stated events of default, (iv) expanded the eligibility of inventory and accounts that the Company can borrow against, and (v) modified certain financial covenants required of the Company. •During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company undertook restructuring actions, which significantly reduced employee headcount and reduced operating spend. This included the reduction of consulting and outside services, the reduction of marketing programs, and the prioritization of and sequencing of research and development projects. The Company recognized $1,448 of restructuring charges within operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. The restructuring charges consisted primarily of severance expense and related employee benefits, most of which was paid during the year. We have not generated sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy our capital requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient future cash flows from operations due to potential factors, including but not limited to inflation, recession, or reduced demand for the Company’s products. If revenues further decrease from current levels, the Company may be unable to further reduce costs, or such reductions may limit our ability to pursue strategic initiatives and grow revenues in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Failure to secure additional funding may require us to modify, delay or abandon some of our planned future development, or to otherwise enact further operating cost reductions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and ability to achieve our intended business objectives. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to pursue our business objectives and to respond to business opportunities, challenges, or unforeseen circumstances could be significantly limited, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. We also could be required to seek funds through arrangements with partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights or jointly own some aspects of our technologies, products or services that we would otherwise pursue on our own. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2023, substantially all of the Company's cash was held with Silicon Valley Bank and Citibank, and exceeded federally insured limits. On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") as receiver. On March 12, 2023, the Secretary of the Treasury, the chair of the Federal Reserve Board and the chairman of the FDIC released a joint statement related to the FDIC's resolution of the Silicon Valley Bank receivership, which provided that all depositors would have access to all their money starting March 13, 2023. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, all cash deposited by the Company with Silicon Valley Bank, now a division of First Citizens Bank and Trust Company, has been accessible by the Company.
