PIVOTAL INVESTMENT CORPORATION II

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2020

(Unaudited)

CAUTIONARY NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONSREGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Pivotal Investment Corporation II (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware

This Quarterly Report on March 20, 2019. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. However, the Company is currently focusing its search on companies in North America in industries ripe for disruption from continuously evolving digital technology and the resulting shift in distribution patterns and consumer purchase behavior. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

The Company has one subsidiary, PIC II Merger Sub Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Delaware on September 4, 2020 (“Merger Sub”).

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2020 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and after the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination and activities in connection with the potential Business Combination with XL Hybrids, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“XL”) (see Note 6).

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 11, 2019. On July 16, 2019, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), including 3,000,000 Units subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, generating total gross proceeds of $230,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 4,233,333 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Pivotal Investment Holdings II LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating total gross proceeds of $6,350,000, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 16, 2019, an amount of $230,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities,Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning set forth inof Section 2(a)(16)27A of the Investment CompanySecurities Act of 1940,1933, as amended (the “Investment Company“Securities Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

Transaction costs amounted to $13,185,704, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $535,704 of other costs. In addition, at September 30, 2020, cash of $535,515 was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company must complete an initial Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts previously disbursed to management for tax obligations and excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “public stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. SEC and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the holders of the Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 5) have agreed to vote such Founder Shares and any Public Shares purchased after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 1321E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect that relate to more than an aggregate of 20%future events or moreour future financial performance regarding, among other things, the plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial, of the Public Shares, withoutCompany. These statements are based on the prior consentbeliefs and assumptions of XL Fleet Corp.’s (the “Company”) management team. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates” or “intends” or similar expressions. The forward-looking statements are based on business plans prepared by, and are the responsibility of, XL Fleet Corp.’s management.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

our financial and business performance, including financial projections and business metrics;

our ability to pursue sales opportunities during the ongoing global microchip shortage and in the face of other global supply chain constraints;

our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans;

the implementation, market acceptance and success of our business model;

our growth may not be sustainable and depends on our ability to attract and retain customers;

our ability to scale in a cost-effective manner;

developments and projections relating to our competition and industry;

our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of World Energy Efficiency Services, LLC or future acquisition targets;

the impact of health epidemics, including the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, on our business and supply chain and the actions we may take in response thereto;

our expectations regarding our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others;

our ability to obtain funding for our operations;

our business, expansion plans and opportunities; and

the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings.

These and other factors that could cause actual results to differ from those implied by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are more fully described in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors.” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors, within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2021, as amended in our filing on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 17, 2021, which, as so amended, we refer to as the Annual Report and the risk factors set forth in Part II, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on May 17, 2021 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2021. These factors are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, such as the description of our business set forth in Item 1 and our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in Item 2 describe additional factors that could adversely affect the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed (a)XL Fleet Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries. New risk factors emerge from time to waive their redemption rights with respecttime, and it is not possible to their Founder Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (i) that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares ifpredict all such risk factors, nor can the Company does not complete a Business Combinationassess the impact of all such risk factors on its business or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company has until January 16, 2021 to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (and the Company’s stockholders do not approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend such period), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed to waive their right to any distribution from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the holders of the Founder Shares acquire Public Shares after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.00 per share.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent to which any claims by a third party for services renderedfactor or products soldcombination of factors may cause actual results to the Company, or a prospective target business withdiffer materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements, which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per share or (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Accountspeak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements attributable to XL Fleet Corp. or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. XL Fleet Corp. undertakes no obligations to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between Legacy XL and Pivotal was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy XL, with Legacy XL surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pivotal (the “Merger” and, collectively with the other transactions described in the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Pivotal Investment Corporation II changed its name to XL Fleet Corp.

Acquisition of World Energy: On May 17, 2021 (“Closing Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of World Energy Efficiency Services, LLC (“World Energy”).

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business, continued

COVID-19 Worldwide Pandemic, continued:

Consistent with the actions taken by governmental authorities, the Company has taken appropriately cautious steps to protect its workforce and support community efforts. As part of these efforts, and in accordance with applicable government directives, beginning in late March 2020, the Company implemented work from home policies where practical at its facilities. Effective September 30, 2021, all 150 employees were working full-time from one of the Company’s five offices or from home. Current COVID-19 policies include universal facial covering requirements if not vaccinated, rearranging facilities to follow social distancing protocols, employees self-screening before going into the office, enhanced cleaning procedures, ability to go mask-free if proof of vaccination is provided to Human Resources, and strict quarantine protocols for any suspected or confirmed employee cases. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued precautionary actions taken related to COVID-19 have adversely impacted, and are expected to continue to adversely impact, its operations, its contractors and the automotive original equipment manufacturers.

The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, reduced operations and production line shutdowns at vehicle OEMs due to reductions inCOVID-19, limitations on travel by the valueCompany’s personnel and personnel of the trust assets. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party (including target businesses) who executed a waiverCompany’s customers, and future delays or shutdowns of any right, title, interestvehicle OEMs or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnitysuppliers.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the protocols and procedures the Company has implemented in response to the pandemic have caused some delays in operational activities. The full impact of the underwritersCOVID-19 pandemic on its business and results of operations subsequent to September 30, 2021 will depend on future developments, such as the ultimate duration and scope of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

consolidated financial statement presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 810 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

S-X. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The financial information as of December 31, 2019 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or for any future interim periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statementsCompany include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary.subsidiaries and variable interest entities, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Because the Company holds certain rights that provide the power to direct the activities of variable interests that most significantly impact the VIE economic performance, as well as to potentially receive benefits or the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses, the Company has a controlling interest in such VIEs. The Company reports its consolidated financial information as a single segment. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined

Note 2. Summary of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

estimates: The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dateas of the financial statements and thebalance sheet date, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making The Company’s most significant estimates requires managementand judgments involve deferred income taxes, valuation of share-based compensation, including the fair value of common stock, the valuation of warrant liability, the fair value of investment in convertible note, and the valuation of business combinations, including the fair values and useful lives of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and the fair value of purchase consideration. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible thatbe reasonable, the estimateresults of which form the effectbasis for making judgments about the carrying values of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actualassets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cashestimates, and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchasedsuch differences could be material to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(Unaudited)the Company’s financial statements.

 

Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

At September 30, 2020, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities. At December 31, 2019, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in U.S. Treasury Bills. Through September 30, 2020, the Company has withdrawn $520,032 of interest earned on the Trust Account to pay for its franchise and income tax obligations.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security “CARES” Act into law. The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, would eliminate the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses (“NOL) and allow businesses to carry back NOLs arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to the five prior years, suspend the excess business loss rules, accelerate refunds of previously generated corporate alternative minimum tax credits, generally loosen the business interest limitation under IRC section 163(j) from 30 percent to 50 percent among other technical corrections included in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act tax provisions.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Shares of common stock subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2020 and 2019, which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic loss per share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants to purchase 11,900,000 shares of Class A common stock that were sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented.

Reconciliation of Net Loss per Common Share

The Company’s net (loss) income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to common stock subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not the income or losses of the Company.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Risk: Financial instruments thatwhich potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and trade receivables. At times, such cash may be in excess of the FDIC limit. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had cash in excess of the $250 federally insured limit. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

With respect to trade receivables, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, believes that the receivable credit risk exposure is limited. As of September 30, 2021, 2 customers accounted for approximately 48% and 21% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2020, 1 customer accounted for approximately 82% of accounts receivable. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, 2 customers and 2 customers accounted for approximately 80% and 73% of revenues, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, 2 customers and 2 customers accounted for approximately 56% and 69% of revenues, respectively.

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in abanks and money market accounts. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are placed with high-credit quality financial institution, which,institutions and issuers, and at times may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accountsany credit loss relating to its cash and management believes the Companycash equivalents.

Restricted cash held at both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, consists of $150 for a bank deposit required for a letter of credit which is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

NOTE 3 — PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, including 3,000,000 Units subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-third of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closingbalance based on management’s evaluation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregateanticipated impact of 4,233,333 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,350,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is identical to the Public Warrants except that they are non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis as long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be heldcurrent economic conditions, changes in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the salecharacter and size of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law),balance, past and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On March 29, 2019, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A common stock upon the consummation of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustments, as described in Note 7.expected future loss experience, among other pertinent factors. As of December 31, 2019, the Sponsor transferred certain Founder Shares to the officers and directors of the Company.

The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ option to purchase additional units was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering). As a result of the underwriters’ election to exercise their over-allotment in full on July 16, 2019, 750,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Related Party Loans

On April 9, 2019, an affiliate of the Sponsor loaned the Company an aggregate of $125,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of February 28, 2020, the date on which the Initial Public Offering was completed or the date on which the Company determines not to proceed with the Initial Public Offering. The Promissory Note was repaid upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering on July 16, 2019.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors or any of their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. There were no Working Capital Loans outstanding as of September 30, 2020.

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on July 11, 2019, the holders of the Founder Shares (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares), Private Placement Warrants (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), and securities that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans or pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement (described below) are entitled to registration rights requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A common stock). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $4,600,000. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000. The deferred fee will be forfeited by the underwriters solely in the event that the Company fails to complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Forward Purchase Agreement

On July 11, 2019, a managing member of the Sponsor entered into a forward purchase contract with the Company to purchase, in a private placement to occur concurrently with the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, up to $150,000,000 of the Company’s securities. The type and amount of securities to be purchased by the managing member of the Sponsor will be determined by the Company and the managing member of the Sponsor at the time the Company enters into the definitive agreement for the proposed Business Combination. This agreement would be independent of the percentage of stockholders electing to convert their public shares and may provide the Company with an increased minimum funding level for the initial Business Combination. The agreement is also conditioned on the Company’s board of directors, including an affiliate of the managing member of the Sponsor, having unanimously approved the proposed initial Business Combination. Accordingly, the managing member of the Sponsor may not agree to purchase any securities, in which case the Company may need to arrange alternate financing to complete the Business Combination.

Merger Agreement

On September 17, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Merger Sub and XL.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into XL, with XL surviving the merger (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, XL will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with the securityholders of XL becoming securityholders of the Company. In connection with the Merger, an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s stock will be being issued or reserved for issuance to XL securityholders. Additionally, in connection with the proposed transaction with XL, the Company intends to ask stockholders to approve an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to combine the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock into one single class of common stock and increase the number of shares of common stock authorized to 350,000,000 shares.

Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), XL will cause each share of XL’s preferred stock (the “XL Preferred Stock”) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to be automatically converted into shares of XL’s common stock, (the “XL Common Stock” and, together with the XL Preferred Stock, the “XL Stock”) in accordance with the terms of XL’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. All of the shares of XL Preferred Stock so converted into shares of XL Common Stock will no longer be issued and outstanding and will cease to exist, and each holder of XL Preferred Stock will thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of XL Preferred Stock.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger:

Each share of XL Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including each share of XL Common Stock issued as a result of the conversion of XL Preferred Stock described above and any conversion or exchange of XL’s convertible promissory notes (each, a “XL Convertible Note”)) will be automatically converted into the right to receive that number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Pivotal Common Stock”) equal to the Exchange Ratio described below.

Each outstanding option to purchase shares of XL Common Stock, whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested, immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “XL Option”) will be assumed by the Company and converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of Pivotal Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of XL Common Stock subject to such XL Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (A) the exercise price per share of such XL Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

Each warrant, issued by XL and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, to purchase shares of XL Stock (each, an “XL Warrant”) will be automatically assumed by Pivotal and will become a warrant to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under each such XL Warrant, a number of shares of Pivotal Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of XL Stock subject to such XL Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time as adjusted pursuant to the terms of such XL Warrant and (y) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price equal to (A) the exercise price of such XL Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time as adjusted pursuant to the terms of such XL Warrant divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The “Exchange Ratio” is the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 100,000,000 by (i) the sum of (a) the number of issued and outstanding shares of XL Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (including all shares of XL Common Stock issued as a result of the conversion or exchange of XL Preferred Stock and XL Convertible Notes) plus (b) the number of shares of XL Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or other exchange of XL Convertible Notes, XL Options and XL Warrants which are not converted, exchanged or exercised prior to the Effective Time and are to remain outstanding as of and immediately following the Effective Time plus (c) the number of shares of XL Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or other exchange of any other debt or equity securities of XL outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Subscription Agreements

On September 17, 2020, the Company entered into subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreements”) with certain accredited investors (“Investors”), pursuant to which in connection with the Merger, the Company will issue an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of Pivotal Common Stock to the Investors at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000 (the “PIPE Offering”). The closing of the PIPE Offering is conditioned upon, among other customary closing conditions, (i) the Company receiving shareholder approval of the issuance of the shares of Pivotal Common Stock to be issued to the Investors pursuant to the rules and regulations of the NYSE and (ii) the Company and XL consummating the Merger prior to or substantially concurrently with the closing of the PIPE Offering.

In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering (not including the shares of Class A common stock underlying the private placement units) plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement-equivalent securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement equivalent securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company). Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their shares of Class B common stock into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment as provided above, at any time.

Warrants —The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) July 16, 2020 (12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering); provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of Class A common stock underlying such warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of an initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor, initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by them prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of an initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates the initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

NOTE 8 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements: The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

 

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

PIVOTAL INVESTMENT CORPORATION II

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2020

(Unaudited)Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company can access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s judgment about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

An asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

See Note 9 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

The Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, however the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Fair value measurements, continued:

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, contingent consideration liability, long-term debt and warrant liability. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of those instruments.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets: Prepaid expenses and other current assets include prepaid insurance, prepaid rent, and supplies, which are expected to be recognized or realized within the next 12 months.

Revenue: The Company’s revenue is derived from the sales of hybrid and plug-in hybrid electric powertrain systems, our Drive Systems, and turnkey energy efficiency, renewable technology, electric vehicle charging stations and other energy solutions (“XL Grid”). The Drive Systems products are marketed and sold to end-user fleet customers and channel partners in the United States and Canada. The Company’s XL Grid solutions are marketed and sold to municipalities, corporations and other businesses and principally funded through energy incentives provided through public and private utilities. The XL Grid business consists of the operations acquired through the May 2021 World Energy acquisition. Sales of products and services are subject to economic conditions and may fluctuate based on changes in the industry, trade policies and financial markets.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which occurs when the Company has a present right to payment, legal title has passed to the customer, the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership, and where acceptance is not a formality, the customer has accepted the product or service.

For the Drive Systems products, in general, transfer of control is upon shipment of the equipment as the terms are FOB shipping point or equivalent, as the Company has no other promised goods or services in its contracts with customers. In limited instances, the Company provides installation services to end-user fleet customers related to the purchased hybrid electric powertrain equipment. When provided, these installation services are not distinct within the context of the contract due to the fact that the end-use fleet customer is purchasing a completed modification to its vehicles and therefore, the installation services involve significant integration to integrate the hybrid electric powertrain equipment with the customer’s vehicle. As a result, the hybrid electric powertrain equipment and installation services represent a single performance obligation within these contracts with customers. The Company recognizes the revenue for the equipment sale and installation service for Drive System products at the same time, which is after the installation is complete. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities related to contracts with channel partner customers for Drive System products as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated equipment and not as a separate performance obligation.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Revenue, continued:

For the XL Grid solutions, in general, transfer of control is upon the acceptance and certification of project completion by both the end customer and the utility who is funding the energy incentives, representing a single performance obligation of the Company. Due to the short-term nature of projects (typically two to three weeks), the Company recognizes revenues from all XL Grid solutions activities at a point in time, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and the Company has the right to payment for the transferred asset. The Company also assesses multiple contracts entered into by the same customer in close proximity to determine if the contracts should be combined for revenue recognition purposes. During the duration of a project for XL Grid solutions, all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to the project are capitalized, and customer deposits are treated as liabilities. Once a project has been completed and the energy efficiency upgrades have been deemed to meet client specifications, capitalized costs are charged to earnings.

For both Drive Systems and XL Grid solutions, when the Company’s contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations, which is infrequent, the contract transaction price is allocated on a relative standalone selling price (SSP) basis to each performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on observable selling prices for the sale of its systems. For extended warranties, the Company determines SSP based on expected cost plus margin. The Company establishes the margin based on review of market conditions and margins obtained by market participants for similar services. Any allocation of the transaction price required is determined at the contracts’ inception.

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods and services to the customer. Revenue is recorded based on the transaction price, which is solely made up of fixed consideration for its products and services. The Company does not adjust transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component when the period between the transfer of the promised good or service to the customer and payment for that good or service by the customer is expected to be one year or less. The Company has not identified any significant financing components to date. The Company’s sales can in certain instances include non-cash consideration in the form of the customer transferring to the Company, the customer’s rights to cash incentives from programs administered by municipalities related to hybrid vehicle programs that a customer is entitled to as a result of its purchase. The incentives are fixed amounts that are readily determinable. The Company values the non-cash consideration at its fair value, which generally is the amount of the incentive.

Revenue, continued:

Payment terms on invoices range from 30 to 60 days. The Company excludes from revenue any sales tax and other government-assessed and imposed taxes on revenue generating activities that are invoiced to customers.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to expense costs to obtain contracts, which principally relate to sales commissions, at the time the liability is incurred when the expected amortization period is one year or less.

Warranties

Customers who purchase the Drive Systems are provided limited-assurance-type warranties for equipment and work performed under the contracts. The warranty period typically extends for 3 years following transfer of control of the equipment. The warranties solely relate to correction of product defects during the warranty period, which is consistent with similar warranties by offered by competitors. Therefore, the Company has determined that these warranties are outside the scope of ASC 606 and will continue to be accounted for under ASC 460, Guarantees. At the time of purchase of the equipment, customers may purchase from the Company an extended warranty for its equipment. The extended warranty commences upon the end of the assurance-based warranty period and is considered a separate performance obligation that represents a stand-ready obligation to perform warranty services after the assurance-type warranty expires. The transaction price allocated to the extended warranty is recognized ratably over the extended warranty period.

Customers of XL Grid solutions are provided limited-assurance-type warranties for a term of one year for installation work performed under its contracts. Warranties for equipment sold to customers are provided by the original equipment manufacturers.

For both Drive Systems and XL Grid solutions, the Company accrues the estimated cost of product warranties for unclaimed charges based on historical experiences and expected results. Should product failure rates and material usage costs differ from these estimates revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded product warranty liabilities and adjusts the balances as required. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of product revenue in the statements of operations.

Share-based compensation: The Company accounts for its share-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company issues stock-based awards to acquire common stock to employees, directors and non-employee consultants. Awards issued under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans include stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards. Stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards typically contain service based vesting conditions.

Stock Options

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation related to these awards based on the fair value of the awards. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-based awards, and recognizes the compensation cost on a straight line basis over the requisite service period of the awards for employee, which is typically the four-year vesting period of the award, and effective contract period specified in the award agreement for non-employee.

The fair value of common stock is determined based on the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange at each award grant date.

The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards utilizing the Black-Scholes model is affected by the stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk- free interest rate and expected dividends. The Company does not have a history of trading in its common stock as it was not a public company until December 21, 2020, and as such volatility was estimated using historical volatilities of comparable public entities. The expected life of the awards is estimated based on a simplified method, which uses the average of the vesting term and the original contractual term. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the expected life of the awards. The dividend yield assumption is based on history and expectation of paying no dividends. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.

The fair value of stock options issued for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was measured with the following assumptions:

  For the Nine Months Ended
September 30,
 
  2021  2020 
Expected volatility  78.1 – 88.2%  80.0 – 80.1%
Expected term (in years)  6.25   6.25 
Risk-free interest rate  0.4 – 1.9%  0.1 – 0.2%
Expected dividend yield  0.0%  0.0%

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units generally vest over the requisite service periods (vesting on a straight–line basis). The fair value of a stock award is equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company’s Common stock on the grant date. The Company accounts for the forfeiture of equity awards as they occur.

Warrant Liabilities: The Company evaluated the Public Warrants (“Public Warrants”) and Private Warrants (“Private Warrants”) (collectively, “Warrants”, which are discussed in Note 9) in accordance with ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, and concluded that a provision in the Warrant Agreement related to such warrants (“Warrant Agreement”) related to certain tender or exchange offers precludes the Warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the Warrants met the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the Warrants were initially recorded at fair value as derivative liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, with changes in fair value recognized in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change.

Research and development expense: Research and development costs did not meet the requirements to be recognized as an asset as the associated future benefits were at best uncertain and there was no alternative future use at the time the costs were incurred. Research and development costs include, but are not limited to, costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including salaries, benefits, facilities, research- related overhead, sponsored research costs, contracted services, license fees, and other external costs.

Net income (loss) per share: Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. For purposes of the diluted income (loss) per share calculation, stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock and warrants are considered to be potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share when their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Segment Information: The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer, who makes operating decisions, assesses performance and allocates resources on a consolidated basis. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company operates as 1 operating and reportable segment.

Related parties: A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

Recent accounting pronouncements issued and adopted: In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard, ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most significant among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. Under the new standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2021 and as a result, the Company recorded a ROU asset and lease liability (See Note 7).

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Revenue

The following table represents the Company’s revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, disaggregated, by sales channel.

Revenue through channel partners  189   5,369   1,374   7,452 
                 
Revenue from the sale of XL Grid solutions – which are sold direct to customers  2,645   -   5,057   - 
Total revenue $3,200  $6,328  $7,569  $9,472 

Remaining performance obligations: At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was approximately $239 and $305 in deferred revenue related to unsatisfied extended warranty performance obligations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $2 from the December 31, 2020 deferred revenue balance.

Contract Balances: The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed trade accounts receivable, and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company defers certain costs incurred to obtain a contract (contract costs).

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Note 3. Revenue, continued

Costs to obtain a contract: Sales commissions paid to internal sales personnel, as well as associated payroll taxes and retirement plan contributions (together, sales commissions and associated costs) that are incremental to the acquisition of customer contracts, are capitalized as contract acquisition cost on the balance sheet when the period of benefit is determined to be greater than one year. In instances where an extended warranty is sold, the period of benefit would extend beyond 12 months and therefore, the practical expedient would not be met for those contracts and require capitalization of the related costs to obtain those contracts. The Company has elected to allocate the capitalized commissions to performance obligations on a relative basis (i.e., in proportion to the transaction price allocated to each performance obligation) to determine the period of amortization. As a result, substantially all of the commission is allocated to the combined equipment and installation performance obligation and is amortized upon transfer of control of this performance obligation, which typically occurs in the same period in which commission liability is incurred. Total commission expense recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $198 and $13, respectively, and $397 and $46 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The amount of capitalized commissions as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was not material.

Warranties: The Company accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale related to its assurance- type warranties. In general, for the sales of Drive Systems, manufactured products are warranted for the shorter of three years or 75,000 miles against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly and appropriately maintained. For the XL Grid solutions, projects are warranted for one year. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is estimated based on historical claims rates and warranty fulfillments costs adjusted for any expected changes in fulfillment costs.

The following is a roll-forward of the Company’s accrued warranty liability:

   

For the
Nine Months Ended

September 30,

   

For the

Note 4. Business Combination

World Energy

On May 17, 2021, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of World Energy, a privately-held, Massachusetts-based entity, and retained two of its principals and all of World Energy’s employees. World Energy is a direct-install energy efficiency services company (“ESCO”), serving commercial, industrial and institutional customers. World Energy enables utilities to meet their energy savings mandates by developing and executing energy efficiency projects. The acquisition of World Energy expands the Company’s ability to deliver a comprehensive suite of energy savings services that enhances XL Grid’s solutions portfolio to include commercial and industrial EV charging, solar, and energy management services.

The total purchase price consideration, as adjusted, is $12,461 for the acquisition of World Energy. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company remitted to the sellers of World Energy additional cash of $76 in connection with the finalization of working capital adjustments. The as adjusted purchase price consisted of the following components:

Cash of $8,496, as adjusted, consisting of the contractual purchase price of $8,000, plus working capital adjustments of an aggregate of $496.

The closing date issuance of 231,002 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at the closing price of $6.23 per share as of May 17, 2021, for a total share fair value upon issuance of $1,439;

An obligation to issue 244,956 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain of the sellers and their advisors of World Energy, in three equal installments on the sixth, twenty-fourth and the thirtieth monthly anniversaries of the closing date. The closing date fair value was recorded at an aggregate amount of $1,526;

An obligation to pay in cash an earnout of $1,000 upon World Energy’s achievement for the calendar year 2021 revenues of $19,500. The payment of the earnout is due within 30 days following the completion of the audit of XL Fleet’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. Pursuant to the agreement, the earnout is payable only if revenues for the period equal or exceed $19,500. Should the World Energy revenues be less than $19,500, then the earnout would be $0. The Company determined that the achievement of the $19,500 revenue target was highly probable, and as such, the Company recorded a closing date fair value of the earnout in the amount of $1,000.

Adjustments to the initial purchase accounting for the acquisition will be completed, as needed, up to one year from the acquisition date as the Company obtains additional information regarding facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.

The following details the preliminary allocation of the purchase price consideration:

Cash $8,000 
Working capital adjustments  496 
Fair value of 231,002 shares issued at closing  1,439 
Fair value of the earnout  1,000 
Portion of deferred obligation to issue shares of common stock  1,526 
Total consideration  12,461 
     
Less the fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed  (4,109)
Goodwill $8,352 

Included in assets acquired was cash of $308.

In connection with the acquisition of World Energy, the Company incurred an additional obligation to issue shares of its common stock to the three sellers, two of which also entered into employment agreements with the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company is obligated to issue 448,050 shares of its common stock, with an aggregate fair value of approximately $2,800 as of September 30, 2021, issuable in three equal installments on the sixth, twenty-fourth and the thirtieth monthly anniversaries of the closing date, provided that seller/employee is employed by the Company at the date of issuance. If the seller/employee is not employed at such issuance date, the shares attributable to that seller/employee are forfeited. The Company determined that under relevant accounting guidance that this obligation to issue shares would be accounted for as compensation and not as purchase price consideration.

Accordingly, the fair values of each of the three compensation share obligations are accreted as compensation over each relevant compensation period, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded as selling, general and administration expense, compensation costs of $573 and $1,000, respectively.

The initial transaction with World Energy included an outstanding PPP loan of $507 that was incorporated in the liabilities assumed. During the third quarter of 2021, the PPP loan was forgiven in full which resulted in an additional payment to the sellers of World Energy. Consequently, the fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed was adjusted by the entire amount of the PPP loan that was forgiven, with a corresponding reduction in goodwill.

The Company has accounted for this acquisition as a business combination under ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations.” The acquisition method requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by major class were recognized as follows:

  Amount 
Cash $308 
Accounts receivable  3,350 
Inventory, net  1,282 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets  100 
Property and equipment, net  173 
Intangible assets, net  1,560 
Right-of-use asset  145 
Goodwill  8,352 
Other assets  12 
Accounts payable  (1,096)
Lease liability, current  (56)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities  (1,297)
Deferred revenue  (283)
Lease liability, non-current  (89)
Total purchase consideration $12,461 

The acquired intangible assets are comprised of $1,560 related to the fair value of customer relationships which is amortized over three years.

The estimated fair value of the intangible asset acquired was determined based on the income approach to measure the fair value of the customer relationships. This fair value measurement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the estimated acquisition date fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected post-acquisition synergies from integrating World Energy’s assembled workforce, products and processes into the Company’s product offerings. Goodwill recorded is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Note 5. Purchase of Convertible Note

On July 15, 2021, XL Fleet made an investment of $3,000 into eNow, a developer of solar and battery power systems that will enable fully-electric transport refrigeration units (“eTRUs”) for Class 8 commercial trailers. In exchange for the investment, eNow issued to the Company a convertible debenture (the “eNow Convertible Note”) dated July 15, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”) in the original principal amount of $3,000. The eNow Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The eNow Convertible Note is classified as an available-for-sale security. As discussed below, XL Fleet has an option to purchase eNow. If XL Fleet does not exercise this option, under certain circumstances the eNow Convertible Note would be converted on such date into Series B preferred stock. Interest on the outstanding principal sum of the eNow Convertible Note commences accruing on the Issuance Date and is computed on the basis of a 365-day year.

Pursuant to the terms of the eNow Convertible Note agreement, XL Fleet has the right to acquire eNow at a pre-determined valuation and has a right of first refusal with respect to competing offers to acquire eNow, which, if unexercised, will expire on December 31, 2021. In addition to the terms described above, on July 15, 2021 (“Effective Date”), XL Fleet entered into a Development and Supply Agreement (the “Development and Supply Agreement”) with eNow, whereby XL Fleet is made the exclusive provider of high voltage batteries and associated power systems for use in eNow eTRUs. For additional details, see analysis of the fair value of the investment in the eNow Convertible Note in Note 9.

Note 7. ROU Assets and Lease Liabilities

XL Fleet has entered into operating and finance leases as the lessee for office space, R&D and manufacturing facilities, and vehicles. On January 1, 2021 (“Effective Date”), the Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), which increases transparency and comparability by recognizing a lessee’s rights and obligations resulting from leases by recording them on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities. The new guidance requires the recognition of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company adopted the new guidance using the modified retrospective approach on January 1, 2021. As a result, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was not restated and is not comparative.

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of operating ROU assets of $3,481 and operating lease liabilities of $3,481 on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of finance ROU assets of $897 and finance lease liabilities of $897 on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021.

Note 7. ROU Assets and Lease Liabilities, continued

The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted within the standard, which allow an entity to forgo reassessing (i) whether a contract contains a lease, (ii) classification of leases, and (iii) whether capitalized costs associated with a lease meet the definition of initial direct costs. Also, the Company elected the expedient allowing an entity to use hindsight to determine the lease term and impairment of ROU assets and the expedient to allow the Company to not have to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company has also elected the short-term lease accounting policy under which the Company would not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset for any lease that at the commencement date has a lease term of twelve months or less and does not include a purchase option that the Company is more than reasonably certain to exercise.

For contracts entered into on or after the Effective Date, at the inception of a contract the Company will assess whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (i) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (ii) whether the Company obtained the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (iii) whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. Leases entered into prior to January 1, 2021, which were accounted for under ASC 840, were not reassessed for classification.

For operating leases, the lease liability is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments. For finance leases, the lease liability is initially measured in the same manner and date as for operating leases, and is subsequently presented at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases, unless an interest rate is implicitly stated in the lease. The present value of the lease payments is calculated using the incremental borrowing rate for operating and finance leases, which was determined using a portfolio approach based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the noncancelable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend the lease controlled by the lessor. All ROU assets are reviewed periodically for impairment.

Lease expense for operating leases consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease expense for finance leases consists of the amortization of the asset on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or its useful life and interest expense determined on an amortized cost basis, with the lease payments allocated between a reduction of the lease liability and interest expense.

The Company’s operating leases are comprised primarily of office space and R&D and manufacturing facilities. Finance leases are comprised primarily of vehicle leases. Balance sheet information related to our leases is presented below (ASC 842 was adopted on January 1, 2021):

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on March 20, 2019 as a Delaware corporation and formedprovider of fleet electrification solutions for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

We are not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. However, we are currently focusing our search on companiescommercial vehicles in North America, offering our systems for vehicle electrification (“Drive Systems”) and through our XL Grid offerings, providing infrastructure solutions such as charging stations to enable customers to effectively plug in industries ripetheir electrified vehicles. XL Fleet has over 4,400 electrified powertrain systems sold and having driven over 173 million miles by over 240 fleets as of September 30, 2021. Our vision is to become a world leader in fleet electrification solutions, with a mission of accelerating the adoption of fleet electrification systems through cost effective, customer tailored and comprehensive solutions.

In over 10 years of operations, we believe that we have built a large customer base deploying Class 2-6 vehicles across North America. Our fleet electrification solutions for disruptioncommercial vehicles provide the market with cost-effective hybrid and plug-in hybrid solutions with on-board telematics that are available for sale and deployment across a broad range of popular vehicle chassis from continuously evolving digitalthe world’s leading OEMs. We launched our infrastructure division in December 2020 and with the acquisition of World Energy Efficiency Services, LLC (“World Energy”) in May 2021, we are able to offer comprehensive solutions to commercial fleets to sustainably transform their operations.

Through the capabilities we acquired with World Energy, we are able to provide turnkey energy efficiency, renewable technology, electric vehicle charging stations and other energy solutions throughout New England, which adds capability and capacity to our XL Grid division. We believe we are positioned to capitalize on our market leadership as we seek to expand our product offering into additional propulsion technologies including full battery electric, heavier vehicles such as Class 7-8 vehicles, and additional vehicle models in Class 2-6. Our agreement with and investment in eNow, Inc. in July 2021 gives us access to electrification of the refrigerated semi-trailer market and we are continuing to develop a number of full EV Drive Systems (“XL ELECTRIC™”) including our announced agreement with Curb Tender for Class 6 refuse applications. We currently sell most of our Drive Systems through a network of commercial vehicle upfitters, which we estimate has the capacity to process over 100,000 commercial vehicles a year. We are also developing systems and solutions for application on vehicles outside of North America and expect such international sales to commence in 2022.

Our current electrified Drive Systems are comprised of an electric motor that is mounted onto the vehicle’s drive shaft, an inverter motor controller, and a lithium-ion battery pack to store energy to be used for propulsion. We deploy our electrified Drive Systems (XLH™ and XLP™) onto the chassis of vans, pickups, shuttle buses, delivery trucks, and many other commercial vehicles produced by OEMs such as Ford, RAM, GMC, Chevrolet and Isuzu. This technology can be installed as the vehicles are being manufactured by industry standard second stage manufacturers, known as upfitters, in less than one day, with no negative impact on the vehicles’ operational performance or factory warranties and with reduced maintenance cost. Our electrified powertrain systems capture and store energy during braking and subsequently deploy that energy into the driveline during acceleration, operating in parallel with the existing OEM drive train. In addition, our plug-in hybrid system offers the ability to supplement this energy via a connection with an AC electricity source, including a level 1 or level 2 charger. Our systems enable vehicles to burn less fuel and emit less CO2, resulting in increases of up to a 25-50% MPG improvement and up to a 20-33% reduction in GHG emissions. To date, vehicles deploying our electrification solutions have driven over 176 million miles.


With our acquisition of World Energy, we became a provider of energy efficiency, renewable technology, electric vehicle charging station and other energy solutions to customers across the New England region. By leveraging our comprehensive solutions in combination with utility incentive programs, project management and financing, we assist companies throughout all aspects of the fleet vehicle electrification process. We provide full-service electric vehicle charger installations, including the assessment of a location’s electrical infrastructure, site layout of the charging area plan and equipment installation. We believe that the availability of robust electric vehicle charging and infrastructure solutions is critical to meeting the long-term fleet electrification goals of our customers which in turn will translate into growth opportunities for the Company.

Recent Developments

Acquisition of World Energy: On May 17, 2021 (“Closing Date”), we acquired 100% of the membership interests of World Energy for total consideration of $12.5 million, consisting of cash of $8.0 million, a working capital adjustment of $0.5 million, the fair value of shares issued at closing of $1.5 million, the fair value of the earnout of $1.0 million and the resulting shiftportion of deferred obligation to issue shares of common stock of $1.5 million. With respect to the share component of the purchase price, 231,002 shares were issued at the Closing Date, with an additional 244,956 shares issuable in distribution patternsthree equal installments on the 6, 24 and consumer30 month anniversary of the Closing Date.

In addition to the above, we are obligated to issue an additional 448,050 shares in equal installments on the 6, 24 and 30 month anniversary of the Closing Date to the former owners. These shares are contingent upon their continued employment with us, and as such were considered compensation expense and are being amortized over the service period.

World Energy provides turnkey energy efficiency, renewable technology, electric vehicle charging stations and other energy solutions throughout New England. We completed the acquisition to further the strategy of our XL Grid business to provide a suite of charging and power solutions to support fleet electrification.

Minority investment in eNow: On July 15, 2021, we purchased $3 million in convertible notes in eNow, Inc. (“eNow”), a developer of solar and battery power systems that will enable fully-electric transport refrigeration units (“eTRUs”) for Class 8 commercial trailers. Additionally, we have the right to acquire eNow at a pre-determined valuation and have a right of first refusal with respect to competing offers to acquire eNow, which expire if unexercised as of December 31, 2021. If the option to purchase behavior.

Recent Developments

On September 17, 2020, weexpires unexercised, under certain circumstances the eNow Convertible Note would be converted on such date into Series B preferred stock. XL Fleet and eNow have also entered into the Mergera Development and Supply Agreement with Merger Sub and XL, pursuant to which Merger Subwe are the exclusive provider of high voltage batteries for use in eNow eTRUs.

Public Health Emergency of International Concern: On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures. Since then, extraordinary actions have been taken by international, federal, state, and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions throughout the world. These actions include travel bans, quarantines, “stay-at-home” orders, and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations.

Consistent with the actions taken by governmental authorities, we have taken appropriately cautious steps to protect our workforce and support community efforts. As part of these efforts, and in accordance with applicable government directives, beginning in late March 2020, we implemented work from home policies where practical at our facilities. Effective September 30, 2021 all 150 employees were working full-time from one of our five offices or from home. Current COVID policies include universal facial covering requirements if not vaccinated, rearranging facilities to follow social distancing protocols, employees self-screening before going into the office, enhanced cleaning procedures, ability to go mask-free if proof of vaccination is provided to Human Resources, and strict quarantine protocols for any suspected or confirmed employee cases. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued precautionary actions taken related to COVID-19 have adversely impacted, and are expected to continue to adversely impact, our operations, our contractors and the automotive original equipment manufacturers.


We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significantly reduced operations and production line shutdowns at vehicle OEMs due to COVID-19, which reduced chassis deliveries to fleet customers. Both ourselves and OEM manufacturers have also and continue to be impacted by supply chain shortages. We are experiencing limitations on travel by our personnel and personnel of our customers.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the protocols and procedures we have implemented in response to the pandemic have caused some delays in operational activities. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and results of operations subsequent to September 30, 2021 will merge withdepend on future developments, such as the ultimate duration and into XL, with XL survivingscope of the merger. outbreak and its impact on its operations and impact on its customers and industry partners.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, we believe the extent of the impact to our business, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and financial condition will be primarily driven by the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the pandemic’s impact on the U.S. and global economies and the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local governmental responses to the pandemic. Those primary drivers are beyond our knowledge and control, and as a result, at this time we are unable to predict the cumulative impact, both in terms of severity and duration, that the Merger, XLCOVID-19 pandemic will becomehave on our wholly-owned subsidiary, withbusiness, operating results, cash flows and financial condition, but it could be material if the securityholderscurrent circumstances continue to exist for a prolonged period of XL becomingtime. Although we have made our securityholders. In connection withestimates based upon current information, actual results could materially differ from the Merger, an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of our stockestimates and assumptions developed by management. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that the estimates made in the financial statements have been, or will be, being issued or reserved for issuance to XL securityholders. See Note 6 to Item 1 above for a description of the Merger Agreementmaterially and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Results of Operations

Our only activities from inception through September 30, 2020 were organizational activities, those necessary to consummate the Initial Public Offering and, subsequent to our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination and activities in connection with the potential Business Combination with XL. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating incomeadversely impacted in the form of interest income on cash and marketable securities held after the Initial Public Offering. We incur expensesnear term as a result of beingthese conditions, and if so, we may be subject to future impairment losses related to long-lived assets as well as changes to recorded reserves and valuations. In addition, we believe that the impact of the global microchip shortage that the entire vehicle industry is currently experiencing will adversely impact our operating results in fiscal years 2021 and 2022.

Public Company Costs

As a consequence of the Merger, we are an NYSE-listed company, which required us to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company (forfor, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting, legal financial reporting,and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.

Additionally, we expect our capital and operating expenditures will increase significantly in connection with ongoing activities as we:

increase our investment in marketing, advertising, sales and distribution infrastructure for our existing and future products and services;

develop additional new products and enhancements to existing products;

obtain, maintain and improve our operational, financial and management performance;

hire additional personnel;

obtain, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio; and

operate as a public company.

Leadership Transition

On November 1, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a new Executive Employment Agreement with Eric Tech, pursuant to which Mr. Tech agreed to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer effective as of December 1, 2021.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

We believe that our performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section entitled “Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Business and Industry” and in Part II, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on May 17, 2021 and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 filed with the SEC on August 13, 2021.


We are a provider in fleet electrification which represents a very large market opportunity as the commercial fleet industry transforms to more sustainable operations in the coming decades. To capitalize on this opportunity, we have a strategy to leverage our existing products and sales channels to market while also expanding our product line through new product development and expanding our capability to market and sell those products. Key factors affecting our operating results include our ability to increase sales of our current product offerings, expand our product offerings in the future and to realize customer demand for such product offerings. We believe that the size of our sales opportunity pipeline and committed backlog are important indicators of future performance. There are challenges and risks to our plan to capture these opportunities, such as:

system architecture design choices must provide adequate functionality and value for customers;

component sourcing agreements must deliver targets for cost reduction while maintaining high quality and reliability;

design, development and validation of new product systems must be on time and on budget to meet the opportunity in the market and capacity to develop and commercialize these new products will have to be increased;

sales and marketing efforts must be effective in forging the relationships to deliver these products to market and generate demand from the end users and channel partners. We will need to increase our capabilities in market segment analysis and understanding as it relates to system requirements and functionality.

OEMs and principal equipment component suppliers must be able to provide ample supply throughout the year to meet our sales goals. We have experienced interruptions in OEM vehicle supply amid a worldwide microchip shortage. This has resulted in very limited OEM deliveries of new chassis to our commercial customers during 2021. We are expecting some increase in deliveries in 2022, but still likely there will be a significant adverse impact on vehicle deliveries on account of the microchip shortage. Some of our customers will not purchase our electric propulsion systems without OEM vehicle chassis on which to install those systems. This has had and continues to have an adverse impact on our operating results in fiscal year 2021 and is expected to continue in 2022; This is causing a prolonged disruption to sales of our electrified Drive Systems. We have flexibility to also provide our Drive Systems as a retrofit for existing fleet vehicles and a good portion of our 2021 Drive System shipments were for retrofits. Our efforts to enhance Drive Systems revenues include helping our fleet customers obtain new chassis as well as providing retrofits where applicable. We re-entered the California market with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) approval in June 2021 for our Ford Transittm HEV systems, we have four active executive orders (EOs) and we expect additional EOs from CARB for other applications over the coming months. We have seen positive signs in terms of increased budgets from municipal customers, but we believe the OEM chip shortage is hindering the rebound in that area of the market, despite budget availability.

energy-efficiency upgrades must translate into bottom-line savings for our clients; and

our success will depend on our ability to make it easier, cheaper and simpler for companies to electrify their fleets.

Key Components of Statements of Operations

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for the discovery and development of our electrified powertrain offerings and assessment of charging infrastructure technologies, which include:

personnel-related expenses including salaries, benefits, travel and share-based compensation, for personnel performing research and development activities;

fees paid to third parties such as consultants and contractors for outsourced engineering services;

expenses related to prototype materials, supplies and third-party services; and

depreciation for equipment used in research and development activities.


We expect our research and development costs to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we expect to use a significant portion of the proceeds from the business to accelerate development of product enhancements and additional new products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of personnel-related expenses for our corporate, executive, finance, sales, marketing and other administrative functions, expenses for outside professional services, including legal, audit and accounting and auditing compliance),services, as well as expenses for due diligence expenses.

LiquiditySignificant Judgments and Capital ResourcesEstimates

On July 16, 2019, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement of 4,233,333 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $6,350,000. The Private Placement Warrants were purchased by our Sponsor.

Following the Initial Public Offering, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. Transaction costs amounted to $13,185,704, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting feesOur management’s discussion and $535,704 of other costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash used in operating activities was $609,460, consisting of a net loss of $1,417,256, interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $886,357 and a deferred tax benefit of $1,707. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $1,695,860 of cash for operating activities.

For the period from March 20, 2019 (inception) through September 30, 2019, cash used in operating activities was $319,728. Net income of $664,827 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $951,166, an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in our Trust Account of $22,962 and a deferred tax provision of $4,822. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $15,249 of cash for operating activities.

As of September 30, 2020, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $232,286,222 (including approximately $2,286,000 of interest income) consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 180 days or less. Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through September 30, 2020, we have withdrawn $520,032 of interest earned on the Trust Account to pay for our franchise and income tax obligations.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, to acquire a target business and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect a Business Combination, the remaining funds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we had incurred prior to the completionanalysis of our Business Combination if the funds available to us outsidefinancial position and results of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.

As of September 30, 2020, we had cash held outside of the Trust Account of $535,515. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligenceoperations is based on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of notes may be convertible into Private Warrants, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrants.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial Business Combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of our Business Combination, infinancial statements, which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2020. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement with a managing member of the Sponsor entered into a forward purchase contract with the Company to purchase,prepared in a private placement to occur concurrently with the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, up to $150,000,000 of the Company’s securities. The type and amount of securities to be purchased by the managing member of the Sponsor will be determined by the Company and the managing member of the Sponsor at the time the Company enters into the definitive agreement for the proposed Business Combination. This agreement would be independent of the percentage of stockholders electing to convert their public shares and may provide the Company with an increased minimum funding level for the initial Business Combination. The agreement is also conditioned on the Company’s board of directors, including an affiliate of the managing member of the Sponsor, having unanimously approved the proposed initial Business Combination. Accordingly, the managing member of the Sponsor may not agree to purchase any securities, in which case the Company may need to arrange alternate financing to complete the Business Combination.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000. The deferred fee will be forfeited by the underwriters solely in the event that the Company fails to complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires managementus to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, which include estimates related to stock-based compensation expense, warrant valuation and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. We base our estimates on historical experience and other market- specific or other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions.

Revenues

Revenues decreased by $3.1 million, or 49.4%, to $3.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a net decrease of $5.7 million in revenues from the sale of our Drive Systems. Interruptions in OEM vehicle supply amid a worldwide microchip shortage has caused OEMs to stop taking fleet orders for much of the first nine months of the year in 2021 and some OEMs are telling large fleets they will receive zero new vehicles in 2021. This decrease was partially offset by the addition of energy infrastructure solutions revenues, of $2.6 million across over 106 projects.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues decreased by $3.1 million, or 54.9%, to $2.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a net decrease in the costs of revenue of $4.8 million of Drive Systems, due to a decrease in sales. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the cost of revenues of $1.7 million for energy infrastructure projects completed.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Gross profit decreased by $0.1 million, to $0.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The gross profit decreased by $1.0 million for gross profit on the sale of Drive Systems. This is offset by an increase of $0.9 million on the sales of infrastructure projects.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $1.6 million, or 95.4%, to $3.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to additional employee compensation costs of $0.9 million, professional service expenses of $0.3 million, facilities and production costs of $0.3 million and technology expenses of $0.1 million. The increase was primarily due to the hiring of 29 additional engineering staff to support sales growth and to further develop and broaden our Drive Systems product lines as well as the opening of a new research and development facility in Wixom, MI in the second quarter of 2021.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $7.4 million, or 140.2%, to $12.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase consisted principally of an increase in legal, accounting and other professional fees incurred in connection with meeting SEC and other financial reporting responsibilities in the amount of $0.5 million, and an increase in headcount of about 46 employees attributable to the responsibilities of becoming a public company and to build out our human resource infrastructure in the amount of $3.6 million. The aforementioned increase in legal, accounting and other professional fees consist of an increase in consulting fees of $1.2 million and a decrease in legal fees of $0.6 million. Additionally, with the acquisition of World Energy, selling, general, and administrative expenses in the period increased by approximately $1.5 million compared to the comparable period in the prior year, consisting principally of employee compensation, benefits and professional fees.

Other (Income) Expense

Interest expense, net decreased by $1.3 million, or 98.9%, to $0.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to the Company repaying or converting substantially all debt prior to December 31, 2020. The negative change in fair value of obligation to issue shares of common stock to sellers of World Energy of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was due to a decrease in the stock price from the date of the acquisition. The change in fair value of warrant liability of $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was principally due to a decrease in the fair value of our Common Stock.


Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

The consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are presented below:

Revenues

Revenues decreased by $1.9 million, or 20.1%, to $7.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $9.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was principally due to a net decrease of $7.0 million in revenues from the sale of our Drive Systems. Interruptions in OEM vehicle supply amid a worldwide microchip shortage has caused OEMs to stop taking fleet orders for much of the first half of the year 2021 and some OEMs are telling large fleets they will receive zero new vehicles in 2021. This is causing a prolonged disruption to sales of our electrified Drive Systems. We have flexibility to also provide our Drive Systems as a retrofit for existing fleet vehicles. We will continue to develop new sales opportunities through innovative access to new vehicles for our customers as well as providing retrofits where applicable. We re- entered the California market with CARB approval in June 2021 for our Ford Transit HEV systems, we have been approved for four additional CARB EOs and we expect additional EOs from CARB for other applications over the coming months. We have seen positive signs in terms of increased budgets from municipal customers, but we believe the OEM chip shortage is hindering the rebound in that area of the market, despite budget availability. This decrease was partially offset by the addition of energy infrastructure solutions revenues of $5.1 million across over 185 projects.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues decreased by $2.1 million, or 23.9%, to $6.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a net decrease in the costs of revenue of $5.8 million of Drive Systems, due to a decrease in sales. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in cost of revenues of $3.0 million for energy infrastructure projects completed, $0.5 million for write-offs and allowances for Drive Systems inventory and $0.3 million for overhead allocation for Drive Systems.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Gross profit increased by $0.2 million, to $0.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The gross profit increased by $2.1 million on the sales of infrastructure projects. This is offset by a decrease of $1.2 million for gross profit on the sale of Drive Systems.


Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $4.1 million, or 125.6%, to $7.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to additional employee compensation costs of $2.1 million, professional service expenses of $0.7 million, facilities and production costs of $1.4 million and technology expenses of $0.2 million. The increase was primarily due to the hiring of 29 additional engineering staff to support unit sales growth and to further develop and broaden our Drive Systems product lines as well as the opening of a new research and development facility in Wixom, MI in the second quarter of 2021.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $20.7 million, or 191.9%, to $31.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $10.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase consisted principally of an increase in legal, accounting and other professional fees incurred in connection with meeting SEC and other financial reporting responsibilities in the amount of $5.8 million, and an increase in headcount of about 46 employees attributable to the responsibilities of becoming a public company and to build out our human resource infrastructure in the amount of $7.6 million. The aforementioned increase in legal, accounting and other professional fees consist of increases in consulting fees of $4.8 million and legal fees of $1.1 million. Additionally, with the acquisition of World Energy, selling, general, and administrative expenses in the nine-month period increased by approximately $2.4 million compared to the comparable period in the prior year, consisting principally of employee compensation and benefits and professional fees.

Other (Income) Expense

Interest expense, net decreased by $4.3 million, or 99.2%, to $0.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to the Company repaying or converting substantially all debt prior to December 31, 2020. We incurred a loss on extinguishment of $1.0 million in connection with the amendment of certain convertible notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There was no loss on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The negative change in fair value of obligation to issue shares of common stock to sellers of World Energy of $18 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was due to a decrease in the stock price from the date of the acquisition. The change in fair value of warrant liability of $82.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was principally due to a decrease in the fair value of our Common Stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, we had working capital of $371.9 million, including cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $366.9 million. We had net income of $43.9 million (a net loss of $38.1 million after adjusting for a non-cash gain of $82.0 million to recognize the change in fair value of warrant liability) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and incurred a net loss of $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 7,441,020 public warrants were exercised, which resulted in the issuance of 7,441,020 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, generating cash proceeds of approximately $85.6 million.

We expect to continue to incur net losses in the short term, as we continue to execute on our strategic initiatives to optimize our production for scale, invest in the sales and channel teams, and expand our products and services. Based on our current liquidity, we believe that no additional capital will be needed to execute our current business plan over the next 12 months.

Related Parties

We are party to a noncancelable lease agreement for office, research and development, and vehicle development and installation facilities with a holder of more than 5% of our Common Stock. The lease term extends through February 28, 2022. Pursuant to the terms of the lease agreement, we currently pay monthly rent installments of $19,473 for this property. The lease includes a rent escalation clause, and rent expense is being recorded on a straight-line basis. Rent expense under the operating lease was $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and

$0.2 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, other than the New Markets Tax Credit variable interest entity, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated organizations or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities, which were established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles of the U.S. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the consolidated balance sheet date, as well as the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods.

Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

While our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our historical financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (see Note 2 in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements), we believe that the following accounting policies require a greater degree of judgment and complexity: revenue recognition, business combinations and convertible notes derivative accounting. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.

Business combinations: We account for the acquisition of a business in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805). Amounts paid to acquire a business are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. We determine the fair value of purchase consideration, including contingent consideration, and acquired intangible assets based on detailed valuations that use certain information and assumptions provided by management. We allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired to goodwill. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in the financial statements from the date of acquisition forward. Acquisition-related costs are expensed in periods in which the costs are incurred.

We use the income approach to determine the fair value of developed technology acquired in a business combination. This approach determines fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to the respective asset over its useful life and incomethen discounting these after-tax cash flows back to a present value. We base our revenue assumptions on estimates of relevant market sizes, expected market growth rates, expected trends in technology and expensesexpected product introductions by competitors. Developed technology represents patented and unpatented technology and know-how.

Revenue Recognition: Our revenue is derived from the sales of hybrid electric powertrain systems and turnkey energy efficiency, renewable technology, electric vehicle charging stations and other energy solutions (“XL Grid”). Our Drive Systems products are marketed and sold to end-user fleet customers and channel partners in the United States and Canada. The Company’s XL Grid solutions are marketed and sold to municipalities, corporations and other businesses and principally funded through energy tax credits and rebates provided by public and private utilities. Sales of products and services are subject to economic conditions and may fluctuate based on changes in the industry, trade policies and financial markets.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which occurs when we have a present right to payment, legal title has passed to the customer, the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership, and where acceptance is not a formality, the customer has accepted the product or service. As it relates to our Drive Systems, in general, transfer of control is upon shipment of the equipment as the terms are free on board shipping point, or equivalent and we have no other promised goods or services in our contracts with customers. In limited instances, we provide installation services to end-user fleet customers related to the purchased hybrid electric powertrain equipment. When provided, the installation services are not distinct within the context of the contract due to the fact that the end-use fleet customer is purchasing a completed modification to our vehicles and therefore, the installation services involve significant integration to integrate the hybrid electric powertrain equipment with the customer’s vehicle. As a result, the hybrid electric powertrain equipment and installation services represent a single performance obligation within these contracts with customers. We have elected to treat shipping and handling activities related to contracts with channel partner customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated equipment and not as a separate performance obligation.

As for revenue recognition with XL Grid, in general, transfer of control is upon the acceptance and certification of project completion by both the end-customer and the utility who is funding the credits and rebates, representing a single performance obligation to us. Due to the short-term nature of projects (typically two to three weeks), we recognize revenues from all activities at a point in time, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and we have the right to payment for the transferred asset. We also assess multiple contracts entered into by the same customer in close proximity to determine if the contracts should be combined for revenue recognition purposes. During the duration of a project, all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to the project are capitalized, and customer deposits are treated as liabilities. Once a project has been completed and the energy efficiency upgrades have been deemed to meet client specifications, capitalized costs are charged to earnings.

For the XL Grid customers, we provide limited-assurance-type warranties for our equipment and work performed under our contracts. The warranty period typically extends for 3 years following transfer of control of the equipment. The warranties solely relate to correction of product defects during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differwarranty period, which is consistent with similar warranties offered by competitors. Therefore, we have determined that this warranty is outside the scope of ASC 606 and will continue to be accounted for under ASC 460, Guarantees. At the time of purchase of the equipment, customers may purchase from those estimates.us an extended warranty for our equipment. The extended warranty commences upon the end of the assurance-based warranty period and is considered a separate performance obligation that represents a stand-ready obligation to perform warranty services after the assurance-type warranty expires. The transaction price allocated to the extended warranty is recognized ratably over the extended warranty period.


Pertaining to our revenue from the sale of XL Grid solutions, we provide limited-assurance-type warranties for a term of one year for installation work performed under our contracts. Warranties for equipment resold to customers are provided by the original equipment manufacturers.

When our contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations, the contract transaction price is allocated on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”) basis to each performance obligation. We have identifieddetermine standalone selling prices based on observable selling prices for the following critical accounting policies:sale of kits. For extended warranties, we determine SSP based on expected cost plus margin. We establish the margin based on review of market conditions and margins obtained by market participants for similar services. Any allocation of the transaction price required is determined at the contracts’ inception.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

Warrant liabilities: We account for the warrants issued in connection with our common stock subject to possible redemptioninitial public offering in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815”), under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as liabilities. As the warrants meet the definition of a liability instrument and isderivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the Warrants are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights thatvalue at inception and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Operations in the period of change.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are either withinan “emerging growth company” under the controlJumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Section 102(b)(1) of the holderJOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or subjectrevised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to redemption uponcomply with the occurrencenew or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of uncertain eventsthe extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. We may elect not solely within our control)to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is classifiedissued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our common stock features certain redemption rights thatan emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard, until such time we are no longer considered to be outside of our control and subjectan emerging growth company. At times, we may elect to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outsideearly adopt a new or revised standard. See Note 2 of the stockholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Common Share

We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Shares of common stock subject to possible redemption which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. Our net income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to common stock subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not our income or losses.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on ouraccompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.statements herein and Note 3 of the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report for the recent accounting pronouncements adopted and the recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2021 and 2020.

In addition, we intend to rely on the other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an emerging growth company, we intend to rely on such exemptions, we will not be required to, among other things: (a) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (b) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (c) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis); and (d) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation to median employee compensation.

We will remain an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act until December 31, 2021.

New and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are applicable to us as of the specified effective date. As of September 30, 2021, there are no new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted that will have an impact on our financial position or results of operation.

As an “emerging growth company”, we can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk Factors

An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks described below, together with other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the other information and documents we file with the SEC, including our Annual Report. The occurrence of any of the following risks could have a material and adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects, as well as our ability to accomplish our strategic objectives. As a result, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations and stock price.

There have not been any material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020 other than those disclosed in our Part II, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on May 17, 2021 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2021 and the risk factors set out below.

 

Recent and pending management changes could disrupt our operations and impair our ability to attract and retain key personnel.

We have experienced recent changes to our senior management team, including the announced departure of Dimitri Kazarinoff and appointment of Eric Tech as our Chief Executive Officer effective as of December 1, 2021. Changes in our senior management and uncertainty regarding pending changes may disrupt our operations, impact partner relationships, and impair our ability to recruit and retain other needed personnel. Any such disruption or impairment could have an adverse effect on our business.

Our product development efforts are subject to counterparty risks

We often develop products as part of co-development agreements where our counterparty bears some of the product development and engineering costs and, among other obligations, may be responsible for supplying critical components or designs, providing access to key customers or technologies, or developing the more fulsome product or platform (a chassis or vehicle, for example) that incorporates or makes use of our products.  In some instances, we’ve made investments in those counterparties to provide them with additional working capital and provide us with greater returns upon the expected commercial success of the integrated product offering.  Among other initiatives, we are currently developing an electric drivetrain for use in Curbtender medium duty refuse vehicles, and a battery pack and associated power systems for use in eTRUs in refrigerated trailers for eNow. Our reliance on these and other counterparties subjects our product development efforts, the expected commercial success of those products, and any investment we’ve made in those counterparties to the risks facing those businesses, including their own financial wellbeing and liquidity, the effectiveness of their salesforce, the quality of their customer relationships, the stability of their workforce, the capability of their engineering teams, the adequacy of their own technology and manufacturing ability, and other risks that may be unforeseeable from the perspective of a co-developer.  Should these businesses and/or product offerings fail to achieve the commercial success we anticipate, our own revenues may be impacted and our investments may be impaired.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

In March 2019, we issued to our Sponsor an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. Such shares were issued in connection with our organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”).

On July 16, 2019, we consummated the Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each unit consisted of one share of Class A common stock and one redeemable warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. acted as the sole book-running manager and BTIG, LLC acted as lead manager of the offering. The securities sold in the Initial Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333- 232019) which was declared effective on July 11, 2019.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement of 4,233,333 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $6,350,000. The Private Placement Warrants were purchased by the Sponsor. This issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants included in the units sold in the Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the initial purchaser or its permitted transferees. The purchaser of Private Placement Warrants has agreed not to transfer, assign, or sell any of the Private Placement Warrants or Class A common stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants (except to certain permitted transferees) until 30 days after the completion of our initial Business Combination.

Transaction costs amounted to $13,185,704, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $535,704 of other costs.

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
