Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation |
Basis of Presentation The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Biolase, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared on a basis consistent with the December 31, 2013 audited consolidated financial statements and include all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and the elimination of all material intercompany transactions and balances, necessary to fairly present the information set forth therein. These unaudited, interim, consolidated financial statements do not include all the footnotes, presentations, and disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentations. The consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (“2013 Form 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 17, 2014. |
Liquidity and Management's Plans |
Liquidity and Management’s Plans The Company incurred a loss from operations, a net loss, and used cash in operating activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company has also suffered recurring losses from operations during the three years ended December 31, 2013. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the principle sources of liquidity for the Company have been its available borrowing capacity on the lines of credit with Comerica Bank and the net proceeds from the February 10, 2014 and July 22, 2014 sale by the Company of $4.8 million and $11.5 million, respectively, of unregistered shares of common stock discussed below. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had working capital of approximately $7.3 million. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity at September 30, 2014 consisted of approximately $2.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $9.3 million of net accounts receivable. On November 3, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with several institutional and individual investors, and certain of its directors and officers, under which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 14,162,873 unregistered shares of its common stock at the price of $2.39 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on November 3, 2014, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,205,862 unregistered shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. Gross proceeds from the sale were $35 million. The warrants become exercisable on May 7, 2015, six months after the closing of the private placement, and have a term of three years from the date of issuance. In connection with the transaction, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file within 30 days of the closing a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of both the shares and the shares underlying the warrants issued at the closing. The proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company completed a private placement on July 22, 2014 with several institutional and individual investors, and several of our directors and officers, wherein the Company sold 6,250,000 unregistered shares of its common stock at a price of $1.92 per share (the closing price of the Company’s common stock on July 18, 2014). Gross proceeds from the sale totaled $12 million, and net proceeds, after offering expenses of approximately $491,000, were approximately $11.5 million. The Company used the proceeds to repay the Company’s lines of credit with Comerica Bank and for working capital and general corporate purposes. On July 28, 2014, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facilities with Comerica Bank, including principal, accrued interest, and fees which totaled approximately $2.9 million and the credit facilities were terminated. On February 10, 2014, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with Oracle Partners L.P., Oracle Institutional Partners, L.P., and Oracle Ten Fund Master L.P., under which the Company offered an aggregate of 1,945,525 unregistered shares of common stock in a private placement at a price of $2.57 per share. Gross proceeds from the sale were $5.0 million, and net proceeds, after offering expenses of approximately $0.2 million, were approximately $4.8 million. The Company used the proceeds to repay the Company’s lines of credit and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Use of Estimates |
Use of Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include allowances on accounts receivable, inventory, and deferred taxes, as well as estimates for accrued warranty expenses, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and the ability of goodwill to be realized, revenue deferrals for multiple element arrangements, effects of stock-based compensation and warrants, contingent liabilities, and the provision or benefit for income taxes. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may differ materially from those estimates. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market (or, if none exists, the most advantageous market) for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (referred to as the “exit price”). The fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use, including a consideration of nonperformance risk. Under the accounting guidance for fair value hierarchy there are three levels of measurement inputs. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, other than Level 1. Level 3 inputs are unobservable due to little or no corroborating market data. The Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. Financial instruments consisting of lines of credit approximate fair value, as the interest rates associated with the lines of credit approximates the market rates for debt securities with similar terms and risk characteristics. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASU’s”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU’s. ASU’s not listed below were assessed and determined to not be applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which it will adopt the standard during the year ending December 31, 2017. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going concern uncertainties in the financial statements. Certain disclosures will be required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 applies to all entities and is effective for annual and interim reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its financial statements. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In March 2013, the FASB issued guidance on a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon de-recognition of certain subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. The revised guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |
Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Litigation |
The Company discloses material loss contingencies deemed to be reasonably possible and accrues for loss contingencies when, in consultation with its legal advisors, management concludes that a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters involves judgments, estimates, and inherent uncertainties. The actual outcome of such matters could differ materially from management’s estimates. |
Components Of Income Tax Expense Benefit Continuing Operations [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Uncertainties |
Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties as a component of its income tax provision. With respect to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including related estimates of penalties and interest, the Company did not record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. With respect to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including related estimates of penalties and interest, the Company recorded increases of $0 and $1,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. The Company does not expect any changes to its unrecognized tax benefit for the next twelve months that would materially impact its consolidated financial statements. |
