1. BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Organization and Operations

 

Blink Charging Co., through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Blink”), is a leading owner, operator, and provider of electric vehicle (“EV”) charging equipment and networked EV charging services. Blink offers residential and commercial EV charging equipment, enabling EV drivers to recharge at various location types. Blink’s principal line of products and services is its Blink EV charging network (the “Blink Network”) and Blink EV charging equipment, also known as electric vehicle supply equipment (“EVSE”) and other EV-related services. The Blink Network provides property owners, managers, parking companies, and state and municipal entities (“Property Partners”) with cloud-based services that enable the remote monitoring and management of EV charging stations. The Blink Network also provides EV drivers with vital station information, including station location, availability and fees. Blink also operates a ride-sharing program through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, BlueLA Rideshare, LLC and the City of Los Angeles which allows customers the ability to rent electric vehicles through a subscription service.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and for the sixthree months then ended. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2021 or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 20202021 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 202116, 2022 as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.10-K.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted global stock markets and economies. The Company continues to closely monitors the impact of the continuing presence of Covid-19 and multiple Covid-19 variants. The Company has taken and continues to take precautions to ensure the safety of its employees, customers and business partners, while assuring business continuity and reliable service and support to its customers. The Company continues to receive orders for its products, although some shipments of equipment have been temporarily delayed. The global chip shortage and supply chain disruption has caused some delays in the delivery of equipment orders from the Company’sits contract manufacturer. As federal, state and local economies begin to return to pre-pandemic levels, and with vaccines being administered, the Company expects demand for charging station usage to increase, however, the Company is unable to predict the extent of such recovery due to the recent increase in infection ratesuncertainty of Covid-19. As a result, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact of equipment order delays, chip shortage and continuous presence of Covid-19 will have on its business, future results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Since the period covered by the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed in this note.

 

INVESTMENTS

Available-for-sale debt securities are recorded at fair value with the net unrealized gains and losses (that are deemed to be temporary) reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses and charges for other-than-temporary impairments are included in determining net income, with related purchase costs based on the first-in, first-out method. The Company evaluates its available-for-sale-investments for possible other-than-temporary impairments by reviewing factors such as the extent to which, and length of time, an investment’s fair value has been below the Company’s cost basis, the issuer’s financial condition, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment for sufficient time for its market value to recover. For impairments that are other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized in earnings equal to the difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for which the assessment is made. The fair value of the investment then becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment and it is not adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.

The following is a summary of the unrealized gains, losses, and fair value by investment type as of June 30, 2021:

SCHEDULE OF UNREALIZED GAINS, LOSSES ON INVESTMENT

  June 30, 2021 
  Amortized Cost  Gross Unrealized Gains  Gross Unrealized Losses  Fair Value 
Fixed income $53,608,099   38,014  $(81,513) $53,564,600 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the Euro.Euro and the Indian Rupee. Assets and liabilities are translated based on the exchange rates at the balance sheet date ((1.1886)1.1112 for the Euro and 0.0132 for the Indian Rupee as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022), while expense accounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period ((1.2097)1.1219 for the sixEuro and 0.0133 for the Indian Rupee for the three months ended June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022). Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recognized in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of an entity from all sources other than investments by owners or distributions to owners and includes foreign currency translation adjustments as described above. Transaction gains and losses are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. Transaction gains attributable to foreign exchange were $3

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION - CONTINUED

The following table summarizes our revenue recognized under ASC 606 in the consolidated statements of operations by geographical area:

SCHEDULE OF REVENUE RECOGNITION BY GEOGRAPHICAL AREA

       
  For The Three Months Ended 
  March 31, 
  2022  2021 
Revenues by Geographical Area        
U.S.A $5,781  $1,085 
International  3,944   997 
Total Revenue $9,725  $2,082 

 

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill is the excess of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed in a business combination. To determine the amount of goodwill resulting from a business combination, the Company performs an assessment to determine the acquisition date fair value of the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include: macroeconomic and industry conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events. If the entity determines that this threshold is met, then the Company may apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The Company determines fair value through multiple valuation techniques and weights the results accordingly. The Company is required to make certain subjective and complex judgments in assessing whether an event of impairment of goodwill has occurred, including assumptions and estimates used to determine the fair value of its reporting units. The Company has elected to perform its annual goodwill impairment review on November 1 of each year.

As of June 30, 2021, there were no indicators, events or changes in circumstances that would indicate goodwill was impaired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Identifiable intangible assets primarily include trade name, customer relationships, favorable leases, internally developed technology, capitalized engineering costs and non-compete agreements. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. If an indicator of impairment exists, the Company will compare the estimated future cash flows of the asset, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, then impairment, if any, is measured as the difference between fair value and carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model. There were no indicators, events or changes in circumstances that would indicate intangible assets were impaired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the treasury stock or if converted method), if dilutive.

 

The following common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“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. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

On May 3, 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. This new standard provides clarification and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (such as warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Issuers should apply the new standard prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring after the effective date of the new standard. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an issuer elects to early adopt the new standard in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is evaluating this new standard and its impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosure.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On May 10, 2021, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated April 21, 2021, the Company closed on the acquisition from the shareholders of Blue Corner NV, a Belgian company (“Blue Corner”), of all of the outstanding capital stock of Blue Corner. Headquartered in Belgium, with sales representative offices in several other European cities, Blue Corner owns and operates an EV charging network across Europe. The acquisition of Blue Corner was made to enter the European market and provide an opportunity to expand the Company’s footprint in this region. The purchase price for the acquisition of all of Blue Corner’s outstanding capital stock was approximately $23.8 million (or €20 million), consisting of approximately $23 million (or €19 million) in cash and approximately $0.8 million (€0.7 million) represented by 32,382 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Consideration Shares”). The fair value of Consideration Shares was calculated based on the average price of the Company’s common stock during the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the closing date of the Share Purchase Agreement, which equaled $37.66 (or €30.88) per share, reduced by a discount for illiquidity due to the 12 month lockup that exists on any sales or transfers. The Company also agreed to execute management agreements with key Blue Corner personnel, including equity incentive packages consisting of additional shares of our common stock which is compensatory and not included in the purchase price for this acquisition. The Company entered an escrow agreement pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, under which the Company paid approximately $2.1 million (€1.725 million) of the purchase price into an escrow account for a period of up to 18 months following the closing to cover any losses or damages the Company may incur by reason of any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Blue Corner under the Share Purchase Agreement.

In order to determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Blue Corner, the Company engaged a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values. The final determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities will be completed within the one-year measurement period as required by ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The Blue Corner acquisition will necessitate the use of this measurement period to adequately analyze and assess the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the acquisition date, including intangible assets, accounts receivable, and certain fixed assets.

Note on Covid-19

 

The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted global stock markets and economies. We closely monitor the impact of the continuing presence of Covid-19 and multiplerecently identified variants of Covid-19 which appear to be more transmissible and contagious than previous Covid-19 variants and have caused an increase in the number of Covid-19 cases globally. We have taken and continue to take precautions to ensure the safety of our employees, customers and business partners, while assuring business continuity and reliable service and support to our customers. We continue to receive orders for our products, although some shipments of equipment have been temporarily delayed. The global chip shortage and supply chain disruption has caused some delays in equipment orders from our contract manufacturer. As federal, state and local economies begin to return to pre-pandemic levels, and with a vaccine underway the Company expectswe expect demand for charging station usage to increase, however, the Company iswe are unable to predict the extent of such recovery due to the recent increase in infection ratesuncertainty of Covid-19. As a result, we are unable to predict the ultimate impact of equipment order delays, chip shortage and continuous presence of Covid-19 will have on our business, future results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. The extent to which our operations may be impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and actions by government authorities to contain the outbreak or treat its impact. We intend to continue to monitor the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our business closely. For a further discussion of the risks, uncertainties and actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Item 1A “Risk Factors”.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

We believe our performance and future success depend on several factors, including those discussed below:

Competition - The EV charging equipment and service market is highly competitive, and we expect the market to become increasingly competitive as new entrants enter this growing market. Our products and services compete on product performance and features, the total cost of ownership, sales capabilities, financial stability, brand recognition, product reliability, and the installed base’s size. Existing competitors may expand their product offerings and sales strategies, and new competitors may enter the market. If our market share decreases due to increased competition, its revenue and ability to generate profits in the future may be impacted.

Growth - Our growth is highly dependent upon the adoption by consumers of EVs, and we are subject to a risk of any reduced demand for EVs. The market for alternative fuel vehicles is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements, long development cycles for EV original equipment manufacturers, and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the purchase and use of alternative fuel vehicles, and specifically EVs, include perceptions about EV quality, safety (in particular with respect to lithium-ion battery packs), design, performance and cost; the limited range over which EVs may be driven on a single battery charge and concerns about running out of power while in use; improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine; consumers’ desire and ability to purchase a luxury automobile or one that is perceived as exclusive; the environmental consciousness of consumers; volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline; consumers’ perceptions of the dependency of the United States on oil from unstable or hostile countries and the impact of international conflicts; government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy; access to charging stations, standardization of EV charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an EV; and the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate EVs or future regulation requiring increased use of nonpolluting vehicles. If the market for EVs does not gain broad market acceptance or develops slower than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

19

Regulations - Our business is subject to a variety of federal, state and international laws and regulations, including those with respect government incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy, electric vehicles and others. These laws and regulations, and the interpretation or application of these laws and regulations, could change. Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in diminished revenues from government sources and diminished demand for our products. In addition, new laws or regulations affecting our business could be enacted. These laws and regulations are frequently costly to comply with and may divert a significant portion of management’s attention. Changes to these applicable laws or regulations could affect business and/or harm our customers, thereby adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Expansion through Acquisitions - We may pursue strategic domestic and international acquisitions to expand our operations. Risks in acquisition transactions include difficulties in the integration of acquired businesses into our operations and control environment, difficulties in assimilating and retaining employees and intermediaries, difficulties in retaining the existing clients of the acquired entities, assumed or unforeseen liabilities that arise in connection with the acquired businesses, the failure of counterparties to satisfy any obligations to indemnify us against liabilities arising from the acquired businesses, and unfavorable market conditions that could negatively impact our growth expectations for the acquired businesses. Fully integrating an acquired company or business into our operations may take a significant amount of time. If we are unable to integrate or pursue strategic acquisitions, our financial condition and results of operations would be negatively impacted.

Ride-sharing services revenues were $234,731 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 derived from ride-sharing subscription services program with the City of Los Angeles which was associated with the acquisition of BlueLA in September 2020 (subsequent to June 30, 2021).

Other revenue decreased by $85,974 to $175,049 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $261,023 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) credits generated during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. We generate these credits from the electricity utilized by our electric car charging stations as a byproduct from our charging services in the states of California and Oregon.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues primarily consists of electricity reimbursements, revenue share payments to our Property Partner hosts, the cost of charging stations sold, connectivity charges provided by Telco and other networks, warranty, repairs and maintenance services, and depreciation of our installed charging stations. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $5,846,747 as compared to $2,148,872 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $3,697,875, or 172%. There is a degree of variability in our costs in relationship to our revenues from period to period, primarily due to:

electricity reimbursements that are unique to those Property Partner host agreements which provide for such reimbursements;
revenue share payments are predicated on the contractual obligation under the property partner agreement and the revenue generated by the applicable chargers;
cost of charging stations sold is predicated on the mix of types of charging stations and parts sold during the period;
network costs are fixed in nature based on the number of chargers connected to the telco network regardless of whether the charger generates revenue;
provisions for excess and obsolete inventory; and
warranty and repairs and maintenance expenses are based on both the number of service cases completed during the period.

Cost of charging services-company-owned charging stations (electricity reimbursements) increased by $44,679 to $110,167 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $65,488 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in 2021 was attributable to the mix of charging stations generating charging service revenues subject to electricity reimbursement.

Host provider fees increased by $153,192, or 135%, to $266,707 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $113,515 during the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was a result of the mix of chargers generating revenue and their corresponding revenue share percentage payments to Property Partner hosts per their agreements.

Cost of product sales increased by $2,090,991, or 150%, from $1,391,876 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $3,482,867 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to the increase in product sales of Generation 2, DC fast chargers and home residential chargers during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 as well as product sales from Blue Corner which we acquired in May 2021. Furthermore, the six months ended June 30, 2021 included a reduction in the provision for excess and obsolete inventory of $191,212 relating to the increased sales of residential home charger units. The six months ended June 30, 2020 included an increase in the provision for excess and obsolete inventory of $7,646.

Network costs decreased by $184,481, or 52%, to $173,141 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $357,622 during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily a result of non-capitalizable costs incurred during the 2020 period related to upgrades of our network systems.

Warranty and repairs and maintenance costs increased by $324,626, or 245%, to $457,269 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $132,643 during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to significant efforts expended in previous periods to reduce the backlog in warranty cases. As of June 30, 2021, we recorded a liability of $7,000 which represents the estimated cost of existing backlog of known warranty cases

Cost of ride-sharing services was $670,077 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 derived from ride-sharing subscription services program with the City of Los Angeles which was associated with the acquisition of BlueLA in September 2020 (subsequent to June 30, 2020).

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $598,791, or 683%, to $686,519 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $87,728 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in depreciation expense was attributable to an increase in the number of EV charging stations including those from the Blue Corner acquisition which we acquired in May 2021 and vehicles purchased in December 2020 for the recently acquired BlueLA operations.

Operating Expenses

Compensation expense increased by $9,498,266, or 215%, to $13,918,471 (consisting of approximately $9.9 million of cash compensation and benefits and approximately $4.0 million of non-cash compensation) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Compensation expense was $4,420,205 (consisting of approximately $4.1 million of cash compensation and approximately $0.3 million of non-cash compensation) for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily related to increases in personnel and compensation in executive, marketing, sales and operations departments as a result of the anticipated growth of the Company. In addition, compensation expense during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared the same period in 2020 increased due to additional personnel in conjunction with the acquisitions of BlueLA and U-Go made during 2020 which were subsequent to June 30, 2020 and the acquisition of Blue Corner which occurred in May 2021. Also contributing to the increase in compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 is the new employment agreement with our CEO which included increases in cash and equity compensation as well as one-time awards and payments in satisfaction of his 2020 bonuses of $1,280,000, restricted stock grant of 19,504 shares of common stock, granted of 23,862 in stock options, and a salary catch-up since the expiration of his prior agreement in June 2020 of $294,575. Included in non-cash share-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $1,911,538 related to the special four-year performance stock option for the CEO of the Company.

General and administrative expenses increased by $2,800,909, or 213%, to $4,117,445 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. General and administrative expenses were $1,316,536 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in accounting, legal, investor relations, marketing, consulting and other professional service expenditures of $1,333,453. Furthermore, general and administrative expenses increased due to increases in amortization expense and acquisition related expenses of $162,249 and $319,801, respectively, related to the Blue Corner acquisition. Also contributing to the increase in general and administrative expenses were operating expenditures related to the 2020 acquisitions of BlueLA and U-Go which were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2020, and the acquisition of Blue Corner which occurred in May 2021.

Other operating expenses increased by $1,409,663, or 137%, to $2,436,281 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $1,026,618 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in insurance, software licensing, hardware and software development costs, rent, and property/use tax expenditures of $1,083,777. Also contributing to the increase in other operating expenses were operating expenditures related to the 2020 acquisitions of BlueLA and U-Go which were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2020, and the acquisition of Blue Corner which occurred in May 2021.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expenses increased by $1,141,494 from other income of $50,144 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $1,091,350 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily related settlement and payment of $1,000,000 by the Company to our CEO regarding the transfer of 260,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a prior institutional investor.

NetTotal Comprehensive Loss

 

Our nettotal comprehensive loss for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $26,813,693, or 448%, to $20,823,080 as compared to $5,990,613March 31, 2022 was $15,749 whereas our total comprehensive loss for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020. The increaseMarch 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation expense and general and administrative expenses.$7,421.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:

 

  June 30, 2021  December 31, 2020

During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we financed our activities from proceeds derived from debt and equity financings occurring in prior periods. A significant portion of the funds raised from the sale of capital stock has been used to cover working capital needs and personnel, office expenses and various consulting and professional fees.

 

28

For the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, we used cash of $20,094,235$11,383 and $6,675,582,$8,500, respectively, in operations. Our cash use for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $20,823,080,$15,143, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $6,226,387$3,572, partially offset by $188 of net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and $6,348,542liabilities. Our cash used for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $7,365, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $1,055, and $2,190 of net cash used in changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. Our cash use for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $5,990,613, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $494,295, and $1,179,264 of net cash used in changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.

 

During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $81,458,166, of$1,368 which $58,012,701 was used in connection with the purchase of marketable securities, $4,553,184 was provided by the sale of marketable securities, $22,985,041 was used as cash consideration for the acquisition of Blue Corner, $242,868 was provided by the net cash acquired from Blue Corner and $5,019,549 was used to purchase charging stations and other fixed assets. $237,127 was related to the payment of engineering costs that were capitalized. During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, net cash provided byused in investing activities was $2,309,655,$40,583, of which, $2,755,134$36,562 was provided in connection with the salepurchase of marketable securities and $445,479$4,021 was used to purchase charging stations and other fixed assets.

 

During the sixthree months ended June 30,March. 31, 2022, cash used in financing activities was $77, of which, $69 was provided by the exercise of warrants, offset by $146 used to pay down our liability in connection with internal use software. During the three months ended March. 31, 2021, cash provided in financing activities was $222,721,424,$222,386, of which, $221,333,095$221,406 was provided by the sale of common stock in a public offering, and $1,427,647$1,000 was provided uponby the exercise of warrants, thiswhich was partially offset by $39,318$20 used to pay down our liability in connection with internal use software.During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided financing activities was $4,018,813, of which $855,666 was attributable to proceeds from our PPP loan, $3,195,968 was attributable to the net proceeds from the sale of common stock under the ATM, partially offset by $32,821 used to pay down our liability in connection with internal use software.

 

As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we had cash, working capital and an accumulated deficit of $142,052,894, $197,779,241$161,984, $161,417 and $208,174,528,$257,613, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we had a net loss of $13,458,605 and $20,823,080, respectively.

In January 2021, we completed an underwritten registered public offering of 5,660,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $41.00 per share. We received approximately $232.1 million in gross proceeds from the public offering, and approximately $221.4 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses paid by us. The public offering was made pursuant to our automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on January 6, 2021 and prospectus supplement dated January 7, 2021.

We are using the net proceeds from the public offering to supplement our operating cash flows to fund EV charging station deployment and finance the costs of acquiring competitive and complementary businesses, products and technologies as a part of our growth strategy, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.$15,143.

 

We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that our operating expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will eventually need to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability. Historically, we have been able to raise funds to support our business operations, although there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising significant additional funds in the future. We expect that our cash on hand will fund our operations for at least 12 months after from the issuance date of the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.quarterly report.

 

Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through proceeds received in equity and debt financings. We believe we have access to capital resources and continue to evaluate additional financing opportunities. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. There is also no assurance that the amount of funds we might raise will enable us to complete our development initiatives or attain profitable operations.

23

 

Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully commercialize our products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement our product and service offerings.

 

As EV charging requirements and technologies change, driven by federal, state or local regulatory authorities or by EV manufacturers or other technology or services providers for the charging station industry, in particular cellular connectivity technology, we may need to upgrade or adapt our charging station products or introduce new products in order to serve new vehicles, conform to new standards, or adapt new technologies to serve existing customers or new customers at substantial research, development, and network upgrades costs. During 2021, many cellular technology providers announced they will require the upgrade from 2G/3G connectivity to 4G LTE during 2022 (the “Upgrade”). The Upgrade is expected to cost approximately $1,785 to upgrade certain of our owned and operated EV charging stations.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

We entered into purchase commitments that include purchase orders and agreements in the normal course of business with contract manufacturers, parts manufacturers, vendors for research and development services and outsourced services. As of March 31, 2022, we had purchase commitment of approximately $35,000 of which approximately $13,000 is with a related party, which will become payable upon the suppliers’ delivery of the charging stations, services and other related items. The purchase commitments were made primarily for future sales, deployments of charging stations, inventory management planning and other related items, all of which are expected to be received during the next 12-24 months.

Furthermore, the Company has operating lease obligations over the next five years of approximately $2,009. These operating lease obligations are primarily related to corporate office space, warehousing, and parking spaces related to our ride-sharing services.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures must be in conformity with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which it relies are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that it makes these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described below.

 

29

The following is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies or estimates. Our accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. For a comprehensive list of our critical accounting estimates, refer to Part II, Item 7, Critical Accounting Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue primarily from five different types of contracts:

 

Charging service revenue – company-owned charging stations - Revenue is recognized at the point when a particular charging session is completed.
Product sales – Revenue is recognized at the point where the customer obtains control of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which generally is at the time it ships the product to the customer.
Network fees and other – Represents a stand-ready obligation whereby the Company is obligated to perform over a period of time and, as a result, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Network fees are billed annually.
Ride-sharing services – Primarily related to a ride-sharing services agreement with the City of Los Angeles, which allows customers the ability to rent electric vehicles through a subscription service. The Company recognizes revenue over the contractual period of performance of the subscription.
Other – Primarily related to charging service revenue from non-company-owned charging stations. Revenue is recognized from non-company-owned charging stations at the point when a particular charging session is completed in accordance with a contractual relationship between the Company and the owner of the station. Other revenues also comprisecomprises of revenues generated from alternative fuel credits.

24

 

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Grants, rebates and alternative fuel credits, which are not within the scope of ASC 606, pertaining to revenues and periodic expenses are recognized as income when the related revenue and/or periodic expense are recorded. Grants and rebates related to EV charging stations and their installation are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with the related depreciation expense of the related asset over their useful lives over the useful life of the charging station.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We measure the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value amount of the shares expected to ultimately vest is then recognized over the period for which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period that the estimates are revised. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. We assess the recoverability of its long-lived assets by monitoring current selling prices of car charging units in the open market, the adoption rate of various auto manufacturers in the EV market and projected car charging utilization at various public car charging stations throughout its network in determining fair value. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount.

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences and operating loss carry forwards. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

30

Operating Leases

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

 

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the fair value of the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed in a business combination. To determine the amount of goodwill resulting from a business combination, the Company performs an assessment to determine the acquisition date fair value of the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

25

 

Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include: macroeconomic and industry conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events. If the entity determines that this threshold is met, then the Company may apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit'sunit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The Company determines fair value through multiple valuation techniques and weights the results accordingly. The Company is required to make certain subjective and complex judgments in assessing whether an event of impairment of goodwill has occurred, including assumptions and estimates used to determine the fair value of its reporting units. The Company has elected to perform its annual goodwill impairment review on November 1 of each year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are not required to provide the information required by this Item because we are a smaller reporting company.

 

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, being the end of the period covered by this Report, our management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures – in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2021, under the heading “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” and that continued to exist as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.

 

However, as part of its ongoing remediation initiative and with the help of an outside firm, management continuedis continuing to commit substantial resources to documentingreview the design and evaluating our internalevaluate its management and analytical review controls duringassociated with the quarter:

Management is continuing to review the design and evaluate its internal controls over logical and administrative access to certain IT systems, resources, and facilities or to administer IT applications. Management is also continuing to closely monitor progress on the remediation of the previously reported Significant Deficiencies.

Management commenced the process of validating the operational effectiveness in both first and second quarters of 2021 of (a) the key internal controls forming part of the identified business processes and within the recently implemented NetSuite accounting system; and (b) the internal controls that are put in place as part of the ongoing remediation initiative.

financial close, revenue and inventory processes and, where possible, strengthen related compensating controls. Management expects to make and report continuous progress in the effective remediation of the identified andthis previously reported material weaknesses and significant deficiencies.weakness.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Except the above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15(d) or 15d15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

In addition to the information set forth under Item 1A of Part I to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, the information set forth at the beginning of Management’s Discussion and Analysis entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” and updates noted below, you should consider that there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment. These risk factors may not identify all risks that we face and our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.

 

We have a history of substantial net losses and expect losses to continue in the future; if we do not achieve and sustain profitability our financial condition could suffer.

We have experienced substantial net losses, and we expect to continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses of approximately $13$15 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we had net working capital of approximately $198$161 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $208$258 million. We have not yet achieved profitability.

 

If our revenue grows slower than we anticipate, or if our operating expenses are higher than we expect, we may not be able to achieve profitability and our financial condition could suffer. We can give no assurance that we will ever achieve profitable operations. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Whether we can achieve cash flow levels sufficient to support our operations cannot be accurately predicted. Unless such cash flow levels are achieved, we may need to borrow additional funds or sell our debt or equity securities, or some combination of both, to provide funding for our operations. Such additional funding may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

 

OurWe are unable to predict the ultimate impact of continuing equipment order delays, chip shortages and presence of Covid-19 on our business and future results of operations, will be,financial position and cash flows.

The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted global stock markets, economies and businesses. We continue to receive orders for our financial condition may be, impacted byproducts, although some shipments of equipment have been temporarily delayed. The global chip shortage and supply chain disruption has caused some delays in equipment orders from our contract manufacturer. As federal, state, local and foreign economies are beginning to return to pre-pandemic levels, we expect demand for charging station usage to increase; however, we are unable to predict the extent of such recovery due to the uncertainty of the possible recurrence or spread of Covid-19 and its variants. As a result, we are unable to predict the ultimate impact that continuing equipment order delays, chip shortages and presence of Covid-19 and such impact is uncertain.

The global spread of the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) and multiple Covid-19 variants has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption. The extent to which the coronavirus pandemic impactswill have on our business operations and financial results is uncertain and will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict, including:

the duration and scope of the pandemic;
governmental, business and individual actions taken in response to the pandemic and the impact of those actions on national and global economic activity;
the actions taken in response to economic disruption;
the impact of business disruptions and reductions in employment levels on our customers and the resulting impact on their demand for our EV charging equipment and related services;
the increase in business failures among businesses that we serve and with which we collaborate;
our customers’ ability to pay for our EV charging equipment and related services;
our ability to provide our EV charging equipment and related services, including as a result of our employees or our customers working remotely and/or closures of offices and facilities; and
disruption in the supply of computer chips and raw materials

Any of these factors could cause or contribute to the risks and uncertainties identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition andfuture results of operations.operations, financial position and cash flows.
