We have generally incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. With the series of new debt offerings, debt extensions and conversions to equityequity that we completed during 20202022 and 2021,the first half of 2023, we had $287.5$839.2 million of total outstanding recourse debt as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $274.7 million of2023, which iswas classified as long-term debt. Our recourse debt scheduled repayments commenced in June 2022.
On August 10, 2022, pursuant March 20, 2023, we entered into an Amendment (the “Amended SPA”) to the Securities Purchase Agreement (“the SPA”)with SK ecoplant, notified us of its intent to exercise its option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock, pursuant to a Second Tranche Exercise Notice (as defined in the SPA) electing to purchase 13,491,701 sharesdated October 23, 2021 (the “Second Tranche Shares”) at a purchase price of $23.05 per share, calculated as a 15% premium to the volume-weighted average closing price of the 20 consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the exercise of the option (see Note 5 - Fair Value). The aggregate purchase price approximates cash proceeds to be received by us of $311.0 million, net of related incremental direct costs of $0.1 million. The payment for the Second Tranche Shares will be due the later of (i) December 6, 2022 and (ii) upon clearance under the Hart Scott Rodino (“HSR”) Act of the sale of the Second Tranche Shares as contemplated by the Second Tranche Exercise Notice.
“
On August 19, 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering (“the Offering”SPA”), and the Investor Agreement, dated December 29, 2021, pursuant to which we issued and sold 13,000,000to SK ecoplant 13,491,701 shares of Class A Common Stock at priceSeries B redeemable convertible preferred stock (the “Series B RCPS”) for cash proceeds of $26.00 per share.

On March 20, 2023, in connection with the Amended SPA we also entered into a partShareholders’ Loan Agreement with SK ecoplant (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which we may draw down on a loan from SK ecoplant with a maximum principal amount of $311.0 million, should SK ecoplant send a redemption notice to us under the Offering, the underwriters were provided a 30-day option to purchase an additional 1,950,000 sharesAmended SPA or otherwise reduce any portion of its current holdings of our Class A Common Stock atcommon stock. The Loan Agreement has a maturity of five years and bears an interest rate of 4.6%. The proceeds of the same price,loan may be used by us for working capital and general corporate purpose needs.
On May 16, 2023, we issued 3% Green Convertible Senior Notes (the “3% Green Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $632.5 million due June 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted, less underwriting discountsthe initial purchasers’ discount of $15.8 million and commissions (“the Greenshoe”), which was exercised contemporaneously with the Offering. The aggregateother issuance costs of $3.8 million, resulting in net proceeds received by usof $612.9 million.

For additional information, please see Part I, Item 1, Note 7 - Outstanding Loans and incremental costs directly attributable to the Offering of $0.7 million.Security Agreements.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development efforts and other business initiatives, the rate of growth in the volume of system builds and the need for additional manufacturing space, the expansion of sales and marketing activities both in domestic and international markets, market acceptance of our product, our ability to secure financing for customer use of our Energy Servers, the timing of installations, and overall economic conditions, including the impact of COVID-19 and inflationary pressure in the US on our ongoing and future operations. The rising interest rate environment in the US has and will continue to adversely impact the cost of new capital deployment.
In the opinion of management, the combination of our existing cash and cash equivalents and expected timing of operating cash flows is expected to be sufficient to meet our operational and capital cash flow requirements and other cash flow needs for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no significant changes in our reported financial position or results of operations and cash flows resulting from the adoption of new accounting pronouncements.
Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities Acquired in a Business Combination - In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in abusiness combination at fair value. ASU 2021-08 will be effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022.Early adoption is permitted. The adoption impact of ASU 2021-08 will depend on the magnitude of any future acquisitions. The standard will not impact acquiredcontract assets or liabilities from business combinations occurring prior to the adoption date.

Contract assets relate to contracts for which revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of performance obligations, but where billing milestones have not been reached. Customer deposits and deferred revenue include payments received from customers or invoiced amounts prior to transfer of controls of performance obligations. At December 31, 2022, customer deposits included $24.6 million related to transactions with SK ecoplant and refundable fees received from customers. At June 30, 2023 there were no customer deposits related to transactions with SK ecoplant (see Note 15 - SK ecoplant Strategic Investment).Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in a net position on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets are classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets when both the Company expectsmilestones other than the passage of time, are expected to be complete and the related performance obligations and invoice the customerscustomer is invoiced within one year of the balance sheet date, and as long-term when both the Company expectsabove-mentioned milestones are expected to be complete, and the related performance obligations and invoice the customerscustomer is invoiced more than one year out from the balance sheet date. Contract liabilities are classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets when the revenue recognition associated with the related customer payments and invoicing is expected to occur within one year of the balance sheet date and as long-term when the revenue recognition associated with the related customer payments and invoicing is expected to occur in more than one year from the balance sheet date.

Deferred revenue is equivalent to the total transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, as of the end of the period. Primary component of deferred revenue at the end of the period consists of performance obligations relating to the provision of maintenance services under current contracts and future renewal periods. Some of these obligations provide customers with material rights over a period that we estimate will be largely commensurate with the period of their expected use of the associated Energy Server. As a result, we expect to recognize these amounts as revenue over a period of up to 21 years, predominantly on a relative standalone selling price basis that reflects the cost of providing these services. Deferred revenue also includes performance obligations relating to product acceptance and installation. A significant amount of this deferred revenue is reflected as additions and revenue recognized in the same 12-month period, and a portion of this deferred revenue is expected to be recognized beyond 12-month period mainly due to deployment schedules.
We do not disclose the value of the unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.Disaggregated Revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into four revenue categories: product, installation, services and electricity (in thousands):

PPA IIIa Upgrade
In June 2022, we started a project to replace 9.8 megawatts of second-generation Energy Servers (the “old Energy Servers”) at PPA IIIa Investment Company and Operating Company (“PPA IIIa”) with current generation Energy Servers (the “new Energy Servers”) (the “PPA IIIa Upgrade”, the “PPA IIIa Repowering”). The replacement was ongoing as of September 30, 2022. See Note 11 -
Portfolio Financing for additional information.
Change in Estimate
In June 2022, due to the replacement of old Energy Servers as part of the PPA IIIa Repowering, we revised the expected useful life of the old Energy Servers. As a result, the expected useful life of old Energy Servers decreased from 15 years to approximately 0.5 years. We recognized accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million in electricity cost of revenue on the revised carrying amount of the old Energy Servers after impairment loss in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. There is no effect from this change in accounting estimate on future periods.

3% Green Convertible Senior Notes due June 2028 - On May 16, 2023, we issued the 3% Green Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $632.5 million due on June 1, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted, less an initial purchasers’ discount of $15.8 million and other issuance costs of $3.8 million (together, the “Transaction Costs”), resulting in net proceeds of $612.9 million. The 3% Green Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of May 16, 2023, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee, in private placements to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Pursuant to the purchase agreement among the Company and the representatives of the initial purchasers of the 3% Green Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers an option to purchase up to an additional $82.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 3% Green Notes (the “Greenshoe Option”). The 3% Green Notes issued on May 16, 2023, included $82.5 million aggregate principal amount pursuant to the full exercise by the initial purchasers of the Greenshoe Option.
The 3% Green Notes are senior, unsecured obligations accruing interest at a rate of 3% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2023.
We may not redeem the 3% Green Notes prior to June 5, 2026, subject to a partial redemption limitation. We may elect to redeem, at face value, all or any portion of the 3% Green Notes at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 5, 2026
and on or before the forty-sixth scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, provided the share price for our Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price at redemption.
Before March 1, 2028, the noteholders have the right to convert their 3% Green Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events, including satisfaction of a condition relating to the closing price of our common stock (the “Closing Price Condition”) or the trading price of the 3% Green Notes (the “Trading Price Condition”), a redemption event, or other specified corporate events. If the Closing Price Condition is met on at least 20 (whether or not consecutive) of the last 30 consecutive trading days in any calendar quarter, and only during such calendar quarter, the noteholders may convert their 3% Green Notes at any time during the immediately following quarter, commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2023, subject to partial redemption limitation. Subject to the Trading Price Condition, the noteholders may convert their 3% Green Notes during the five business days immediately after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 3% Green Notes, as determined following a request by a holder of the 3% Green Notes, for each day of that period is less than 98% of the product of the closing price of our common stock and the then applicable conversion rate. From and after March 1, 2028, the noteholders may convert their 3% Green Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Should the noteholders elect to convert their 3% Green Notes, we may elect to settle the conversion by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of our Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, or a combination thereof, at our election.
The initial conversion rate is 53.0427 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $18.85 per share of Class A common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. Also, we may increase the conversion rate at any time if our Board of Directors determines it is in the best interests of the Company or to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of common stock. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, as defined below, occur, then the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of the 3% Green Notes will, in certain circumstances, be increased by up to 22.5430 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes for a specified period of time. At June 30, 2023, the maximum number of shares into which the 3% Green Notes could have been potentially converted if the conversion features were triggered was 47,807,955 shares of Class A common stock.
According to the Indenture, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change means (i) a Fundamental Change, that includes certain change-of-control events relating to us, certain business combination transactions involving us and certain delisting events with respect to our Class A common stock, or (ii) the sending of a redemption notice with respect to the 3% Green Notes.
The 3% Green Notes contain certain customary provisions relating to the occurrence of Events of Default, as defined in the Indenture. If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 3% Green Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the 3% Green Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the 3% Green Notes.
The Transaction Costs were recorded as debt issuance costs and presented a reduction to the 3% Green Notes on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to interest expense at an effective interest rate of 3.8%.
Total interest expense recognized related to the 3% Green Notes for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.9 million and was comprised of contractual interest expense of $2.4 million and amortization of the initial purchasers’ discount and other issuance costs of $0.5 million. We have not recognized any special interest expense related to the 3% Green Notes to date. The amount of unamortized debt issuance costs as of June 30, 2023, was $19.1 million.
Although the 3% Green Notes contain embedded conversion features, we account for the 3% Green Notes in its entirety as a liability. As of June 30, 2023, the net carrying value of the 3% Green Notes was classified as a long-term liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Capped Calls - On May 11, 2023, in connection with the pricing of the 3% Green Notes, and on May 15, 2023, in connection with initial purchasers’ exercise of the Greenshoe Option, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Calls”) with certain counterparties (the “Option Counterparties”). The Capped Calls cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 3% Green Notes, the aggregate number of shares of our Class A common stock that initially underlie the 3% Green Notes, and are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to holders of our common stock upon any conversion of the 3% Green Notes and at our election (subject to certain
conditions) offset any cash payments we would be required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 3% Green Notes.
The Capped Calls expire on June 1, 2028 and are exercisable only at maturity, but may be early terminated in various circumstances, including if the 3% Green Notes are early converted or repurchased. The default settlement method for the Capped Calls is net share settlement. However, we may elect to settle the Capped Calls in cash.
The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $18.85 per share of Class A common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The strike price of $18.85 corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 3% Green Notes. The number of shares underlying the Capped Calls is 33,549,508 share of Class A common stock. The cap price of the Capped Calls is initially $26.46 per share of Class A common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of our common stock on May 11, 2023.
The Capped Calls are freestanding financial instruments. We used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 3% Green Notes to pay for the Capped Calls’ premium. As the Capped Calls meet certain accounting criteria, they are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The cost of $54.5 million incurred to purchase the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and will not be remeasured.

11.10. Portfolio Financings
Overview
We have developed various financing options that enable customers'customers’ use of the Energy Servers through third-party ownership financing arrangements. For additional information on these financing options, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.2022.
PPA IIIa Repowering of Energy Servers
PPA IIIa was established in 2012 and we, through a special purpose subsidiary (the “Project Company”), had previously entered into certain agreements for the purpose of developing, financing, owning, operating, maintaining and managing a portfolio of 9.8 megawatts of Energy Servers.
On March 31, 2022, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement where we bought out the equity interest of the third-party investor, wherein the PPA IIIa became wholly owned by us (the “Buyout”).
Following the Buyout and prior to June 14, 2022, we repaid all outstanding debt of the Project Company of $30.6 million, and recognized loss on extinguishment of debt in an amount of $4.2 million, which includes the write-off of the debt discount related to warrants of $1.8 million and a make-whole payment of $2.4 million associated with the debt extinguishment. Refer to Note 7 - Outstanding Loans and Security Agreements, Non-recourse Debt Facilities section.
On June 14, 2022, we sold our 100% interest in the Project Company to Generate C&I Warehouse, LLC (“Generate”) through a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (“MIPA”). Simultaneously, we entered into an agreement with the Project Company to upgrade the old 9.8 megawatts of Energy Servers (the “old Energy Servers”) by replacing them with a newer generation of Energy Servers (“new Energy Servers”) and providing related installation services, which was financed by Generate (the “EPC Agreement”). The old Energy Servers will be removed prior to installing the new Energy Servers, whereby upon completion of installation the old Energy Servers will be returned to Bloom. We also amended and restated our operations and maintenance agreement with the Project Company to cover all new Energy Servers and old Energy Servers prior to their upgrade (“the O&M Agreement”). The operations and maintenance fees under the O&M Agreement are paid on a fixed dollar per kilowatt basis.
Certain power purchase agreements within the PPA IIIa portfolio were classified as sales-type leases under ASC 840, while some were classified as operating leases. The Company elected the practical expedient package with the adoption of ASC 842, which allowed the Company to carry forward the lease classification upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2020. The leases were modified prior to the sale of the PPA IIIa to Generate. Such modified leases were reassessed and determined to not be leases under ASC 842 because customers have no control over the identified assets. Accordingly, on the date of modification, the customer financing receivables were derecognized and recognized as property, plant, and equipment (“PPA IIIa PP&E”).
Due to our repurchase option on the old Energy Servers, the Company concluded there was no transfer of control of the old Energy Servers upon sale of the membership interest to Generate. Accordingly, the Company continued to recognize the old Energy Servers, despite the legal ownership of such assets under the MIPA. Upon reclassification of the lease assets to PP&E, the Company assessed the recorded assets for impairment. The carrying amount of the PPA IIIa PP&E was determined to be not recoverable as the net undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amounts for PPA IIIa PP&E. Therefore, we recognized the asset impairment charge as electricity cost, consistent with depreciation expense classification for property, plant and equipment under leases.
The PPA IIIa Upgrade was in progress as of September 30, 2022 and resulted in the following summarized impacts on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022: (i) cash and cash equivalents increased by $17.7 million mainly due to $54.7 million cash receipts from the sale of new Energy Servers to the Project Company, offset by $30.6 million for the repayment of outstanding debt, (ii) both customer financing receivables, current and non-current, and property plant and equipment, net decreased by $5.9 million, $36.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, due to the impairment of $44.8 million and accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million of the existing old Energy Servers (we revised the expected useful life of the old Energy Servers from 15 years to approximately 0.5 years which resulted in recognized accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million in electricity cost of revenue (see Note 6)), (iii) contract assets increased by $5.0 million, (iv) inventories and deferred cost of revenue decreased by $24.1 million, and (v) other liabilities increased by $4.7 million. Impacts on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are summarized as follows: (i) net product and installation revenue recognized of $12.7 million and $2.1 million and $49.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, as a
result of the sale of new Energy Servers; (ii) cost of electricity revenue of nil and $45.0 million, respectively, including the write-off of old Energy Servers of nil and $44.8 million, respectively, accelerated depreciation of nil and $0.2 million, respectively, prior to the completion of installation; (iii) cost of product and installation revenue of $5.7 million and $1.7 million and $21.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, due to the sale of new Energy Servers; and (iv) nil and $4.2 million, respectively, of loss on extinguishment of debt.
Impacts on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are summarized as follows: net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $32.6 million due to the repayment of debt of $30.2 million and cash fee of $2.4 million associated with debt extinguishment.

13.12. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
Purchase Commitments with Suppliers and Contract Manufacturers - In order to reduce manufacturing lead-times and to ensure an adequate supply of inventories, we have agreements with our component suppliers and contract manufacturers to allow long lead-time component inventory procurement based on a rolling production forecast. We are contractually obligated to purchase long lead-time component inventory procured by certain manufacturers in accordance with our forecasts. We can generally give notice of order cancellation at least 90 days prior to the delivery date. However, we issue purchase orders to our component suppliers and third-party manufacturers that may not be cancellable. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022, we had a commitment with NetJets to purchase a fractional interest in one of its jets, which is to be used for corporate travel purposes, in the amount of approximately $3.4 million. The jet is expected to be delivered by July of 2023. As of2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, we had no material open purchase orders with our component suppliers and third-party manufacturers that are not cancellable.
Portfolio Financings Performance Guarantees - We guarantee the performance of Energy Servers at certain levels of output and efficiency to our customers over the contractual term. We monitor the need for any accruals arising from such guaranties, which are calculated as the difference between committed and actual power output or between natural gas consumption at warranted efficiency levels and actual consumption, multiplied by the contractual rates with the customer. Amounts payable under these guaranties are accrued in periods when the guaranties are not met and are recorded contra service revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We paid $1.3$4.1 million and $0.2$19.9 million in performance guarantees for the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023, respectively, for such performance guarantees. We paid $9.4 million and $9.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.respectively, for such performance guarantees.
Letters of Credit - In 2019, pursuant to the PPA II upgrade of Energy Servers, we agreed to indemnify our financing partner for losses that may be incurred in the event of certain regulatory, legal or legislative development and established a cash-collateralized letter of credit facility for this purpose. There were no letters of credit or pledged funds associated with the PPA IIIa Upgrade. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the balance of this cash-collateralized letter of credit was $69.0$47.4 million, of which $33.3$31.1 million and $35.7$16.3 million is recognized as short-term and long-term restricted cash, respectively. As of December 31, 2021,2022, the balance of this cash-collateralized letter of credit was $99.4$69.1 million, of which $41.7$40.6 million and $57.7$28.5 million is recognized as short-term and long-term restricted cash, respectively.
Pledged Funds - In 2019, pursuant to the PPA IIIb refinancing and energy servers upgrade program,of Energy Servers, we pledgedestablished a restricted cash fund of $20.0 million, which had been pledged for a seven-year period to secure our operations and maintenance obligations with respect to the totality of our obligations to the financier. We categorized the $20.0 million as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. It was agreed allAll or a portion of such funds would be released if we meet certain credit rating and/or market capitalization milestones prior to the end of the pledge period. If we do not meet the required criteria within the first five-year period, the funds would still be released to us over the following two years as long as the energy serversEnergy Servers continue to perform in compliance with our warranty obligations. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the balance of the long-term restricted cash fund was $6.7 million and $6.7 million.million, respectively.
Contingencies
Indemnification Agreements - We enter into standard indemnification agreements with our customers and certain other business partners in the ordinary course of business. Our exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves future claims that may be made against us but have not yet been made. To date, we have not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to our indemnification obligations. However, we may record charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.
Delaware Economic Development Authority - In March 2012, we entered into an agreement with the Delaware Economic Development Authority to provide a grant of $16.5 million to us as an incentive to establish a new manufacturing facility in Delaware and to provide employment for full time workers at the facility over a certain period of time. We have so far received $12.0 million of the grant, which is contingent upon meeting the milestones through September 30, 2023. In the event that we do not meet the milestones, we may have to repay the Delaware Economic Development Authority, up to an additional $2.5 million on September 30, 2023. We repaid $1.5 million and $1.0 million of the grant in 2017 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 the grant became current, and we have recorded $9.5 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities for future repayments of this grant. Asgrant as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2021, we have recorded $9.5 million in other long-term liabilities for potential future repayments of this grant.2022, respectively.
Investment Tax Credits -For information on ITCs, see Part II, Item 8, Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Please also refer to Note 1 - Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation Our Energy Servers are eligible for discussionfederal ITCs that accrued to qualified property under Internal Revenue Code Section 48 when placed into service. However, the ITC program has operational criteria that extend for five years. If the energy property is disposed of or otherwise ceases to be qualified investment tax credits implementedcredit property before the close of the five-year recapture period is fulfilled, it could result in a partial reduction of the incentives. Energy Servers are purchased by the IRA.PPA Entities, other financial sponsors, or customers and, therefore, these parties bear the risk of repayment if the assets placed in service do not meet the ITC operational criteria in the future although in certain limited circumstances we do provide indemnification for such risk.
Legal Matters - We are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We review all legal matters at least quarterly and assess whether an accrual for loss contingencies needs to be recorded. We record an accrual for loss contingencies when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal matters are subject to uncertainties and are inherently unpredictable, so the actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our estimates. If an unfavorable resolution were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition,balance sheets, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs or onin future periods.
In March 2019, the Lincolnshire Police Pension Fund filed a class action complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, against us, certain members of our senior management, certain of our directors and the underwriters in our July 25, 2018 IPO alleging violations under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for alleged misleading statements or omissions in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in connection with the IPO. Two related class action cases were subsequently filed in the Santa Clara County Superior Court against the same defendants containing the same allegations; Rodriquez vs Bloom Energy et al. was filed on April 22, 2019 and Evans vs Bloom Energy et al. was filed on May 7, 2019. These cases have been consolidated. Plaintiffs'Plaintiffs’ consolidated amended complaint was filed with the court on September 12, 2019. On October 4, 2019, defendants moved to stay the lawsuit pending the federal district court action discussed below. On December 7, 2019, the Superior Court issued an order staying the action through resolution of the parallel federal litigation mentioned below. We believe the complaint to be without merit and in contravention of our forum selection clause in our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and we intend to defend this action vigorously. We are unable to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.
In May 2019, Elissa Roberts filed a class action complaint in the federal district court for the Northern District of California against us, certain members of our senior management team, and certain of our directors alleging violations under SectionSections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act for alleged misleading statements or omissions in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in connection with the IPO. On September 3, 2019, the court appointed a lead plaintiff and lead plaintiffs’ counsel. On November 4, 2019, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint adding the underwriters in the IPO and our auditor as defendants for the Section 11 claim, as well as adding claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), against us, and certain members of our senior management team. The amended complaint alleged a class period for all claims from the time of our IPO until September 16, 2019. On April 21, 2020, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint, which continued to make the same claims and added allegations pertaining to the restatement and, as to claims under the Exchange Act, extended the putative class period through February 12, 2020. On July 1, 2020, we and the other defendants filed a motionmotions to dismiss the second amended complaint. On September 29, 2021, the court entered an order dismissing with leave to amend (1) five of seven statements or groups of statements alleged to violate Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act and (2) all allegations under the Exchange Act. All allegations against our auditors were also
dismissed. Plaintiffs elected not to amend the complaint and instead on October 22, 2021 filed a motion for entry of final judgment in favor of our auditors so that plaintiffs could appeal the dismissal of those claims. The court denied that motion on December 1, 2021 and in response plaintiffs have filed a motion asking the court to certify an interlocutory appeal as to the accounting claims. The court denied plaintiff’splaintiffs’ motion on April 14, 2022. Separately, theThe claims for violation of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act that were not dismissed by the court areentered the discovery phase.
On January 6, 2023, Bloom and the plaintiffs’ entered into an agreement in principle to settle the claims against Bloom, its executives and directors, and the IPO underwriters for a payment of $3 million, which we expect to be funded entirely by our insurers. If the settlement becomes effective, we expect it to result in a dismissal with prejudice of all claims against us, our executives and directors, and the underwriters. The settlement does not constitute an acknowledgement of liability or wrongdoing. On June 30, 2023, Bloom and the plaintiff’s executed a definitive settlement agreement containing the foregoing terms and customary terms for class action settlements, and on the same date, filed the settlement agreement with the court to see its approval. If the court does not approve the settlement and all of its material terms, or the settlement does not otherwise become final or effective, proceedings in the discovery phase. A case schedule has been set, with a trial scheduled for December 2023. We believe the claims to be without merit and we intend to defend this action vigorously.
We are unable to predict the outcome of this litigation at this time and accordingly are not able to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.
In September 2019, we received a books and records demand from purported stockholder Dennis Jacob (“Jacob Demand”). The Jacob Demand cites allegations from the September 17, 2019 report prepared by admitted short seller Hindenburg Research. In November 2019, we received a substantially similar books and records demand from the same law firm on behalf of purported stockholder Michael Bolouri (“Bolouri Demand” and, together with the Jacob Demand, the “Demands”). On January 13, 2020, Messrs. Jacob and Bolouri filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery to enforce the Demands in the matter styled Jacob, et al. v. Bloom Energy Corp., C.A. No. 2020-0023-JRS. On March 9, 2020, Messrs. Jacob and Bolouri filed an amended complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery to add allegations regarding the restatement. The court held a one-day trial on December 7, 2020. On February 25, 2021, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a decision rejecting the Bolouri Demand but granting in part the Jacob Demand allowing limited access to certain books and records pertaining to the allegations made in the Hindenburg Research Report. On March 29, 2021, the Court of Chancery entered a Final Order and Judgment regarding the required production of documents. On April 28, 2021, we produced documents to Mr. Jacob responsive to the Final Order and Judgment. We are unable to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.will continue.
In June 2021, we filed a petition for writ of mandate and a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief in the Santa Clara Superior Court against the City of Santa Clara for failure to issue building permits for two of our customer installations and asking the court to require the City of Santa Clara to process and issue the building permits. In October 2021, we filed an amended petition and complaint that asserts additional constitutional and tort claims based on the City’s failure to timely issue the Energy Server permits. Discovery has commenced and we are aggressively pursuing all claims. On February 4, 2022, the City of Santa Clara filed a Demurrerdemurrer seeking to dismiss all of the Company’s claims. The trial judge rejected the Demurrerdemurrer on all claims except one, and allowed Bloom leave to amend that claim. The We filed the second amended petition was filed on July 1,5, 2022. The City of Santa Clara demurred only to onethe amended cause of action seeking damages for tortious conduct;conduct. The trial judge granted that demurrer and struck the hearing is scheduled fortort claim on October 27, 2022.2022; the writ of mandate and constitutional claims were allowed to proceed.

On April 21, 2023, the parties executed a settlement agreement which allows our two pending customer installations to secureproceed under building permits for these customerand requires the City to amend its zoning code so that future installations in a timely fashion, our customers will terminate their contracts with us and select another energy provider. In addition, if we are no longer able to install ourof Bloom Energy Servers in Santa Clara underrequire only building permits, we may not be able to secure future customer bookings for installation in the City of Santa Clara.permits.
In February 2022, Plansee SE/Global Tungsten & Powders Corp. (“Plansee/GTP”), a former supplier, filed a request for expedited arbitration with the World Intellectual Property Organization Arbitration and Mediation Center in Geneva Switzerland (“WIPO”), for various claims allegedly in relation to an Intellectual Property and Confidential Disclosure Agreement between Plansee/GTP and Bloom Energy Corporation. Plansee/GTP’s statement of claims includes allegations of infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,802,328, 8,753,785 and 9,434,003. On April 3, 2022, we filed a complaint against Plansee/GTP in the Eastern District of Texas to address the dispute between Plansee/GTP and Bloom Energy Corporation in a proper forum before a U.S. Federal District Court. Our complaint seeks the correction of inventorship of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,802,328, 8,753,785 and 9,434,003 (the “Patents-in-Suit”); declaratory judgment of invalidity, unenforceability, and non-infringement of the Patents-in-Suit; and declaratory judgment of no misappropriation. Further, our complaint seeks to recover damages hawsewe have suffered in relation to Plansee/GTP’s business dealings that, as alleged, constitute acts of unfair competition, tortious interference contract, breach of contract, violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act and violations of the Clayton Antitrust Act. On June 9, 2022, Plansee/GTP filed a motion to dismiss the complaint filed in the Eastern District of Texas and compel arbitration (or alternatively to stay). We filed our opposition on June 30, 2022, Plansee/GTP’sGTP filed its reply on July 14, 2022 and we filed our sur-reply on July 22, 2022. We awaitOn February 9, 2023, Magistrate Judge Payne issued a ruling onreport and recommendation to stay the matterdistrict court action pending an arbitrability determination by the arbitrator for each claim.
On February 23, 2023, we filed an amended complaint adding additional causes of action and filed objections to the Magistrate’s report and recommendation.

13. Income Taxes
For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we recorded an income tax provisions of $0.3$0.2 million and $0.9$0.4 million, respectively, on pre-tax losses of $60.1$68.9 million and $263.4$143.5 million for effective tax rates of (0.6)(0.3)% and (0.3)%, respectively. For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we recorded an income tax provisionsbenefit and income tax provision of $0.2 million$12 thousand and $0.6 million, respectively, on pre-tax losses of $56.5$121.2 million and $144.3$203.4 million for effective tax rates of (0.3)%0.01% and (0.4)(0.3)%, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023 and 2022 and 2021 iswas lower than the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to a full valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets.
U.S. tax law changes
On August 16, 2022, the United States government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”). The IRA establishes a new corporate alternative minimum tax based on financial statement income adjusted for certain items. The new minimum tax is effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The enactment of the IRA did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, but we are currently assessing the impact of the production and tax credit-related IRA provisions on our business for future quarters.

15. SK ecoplant Strategic Investment
In October 2021, we expanded our existing relationship with SK ecoplant. As part of this arrangement, we amended the previous Preferred Distribution Agreement (“PDA”) and Joint Venture Agreement (“JVA”) with SK ecoplant. The restated PDA establishes SK ecoplant’s purchase commitments for our Energy Servers for the three year period on a take or pay basis as well as the basis for determining the prices at which the Energy Servers and related components will be sold. The restated JVA increases the scope of assembly done by the joint venture facility in the Republic of Korea, which was established in 2019, for the procurement of local parts for our Energy Servers and the assembly of certain portions of the Energy Servers for the South Korean market. The joint venture is a VIE of Bloom and we consolidate it in our financial statements as we are the primary beneficiary and therefore have the power to direct activities which are most significant to the joint venture.
The following are the aggregate carrying values of the Korean joint venture’s assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, after eliminations of intercompany transactions and balances, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

In October 2021, we also entered into a new Commercial Cooperation Agreement (the “CCA”) regarding initiatives pertaining to the hydrogen market and general market expansion for our products.
The Initial Investment
Simultaneous with the execution of the above agreements, we entered into the SPA pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue to SK ecoplant 10,000,000 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (the “Series A RCPS”), par value $0.0001 per share, at a purchase price of $25.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $255.0 million. On December 29, 2021, the closing of the sale of the Series A RCPS was completed and we issued the 10,000,000 shares of the Series A RCPS (the “Initial Investment”). In addition to the Initial Investment, the SPA provided SK ecoplant with an option to acquire a variable number of shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Option”). According to the SPA, SK ecoplant was entitled to exercise the Option through August 31, 2023, and the transaction must have been completed by November 30, 2023.
The sale of Series A RCPS was recorded at its fair value of $218.0 million on the date of issuance. Accordingly, we allocated the excess of the cash proceeds received of $255.0 million plus the change in fair value of the Series A RCPS between October 23, 2021, and December 29, 2021, of $9.7 million, over the fair value of the Series A RCPS on December 29, 2021, and the fair value of the Option on October 23, 2021, to the PDA. This excess amounted to $37.0 million and was recorded in deferred revenue and customer deposits. Accordingly, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized product revenue of $3.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in connection with this arrangement. No product revenue was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 in connection with this arrangement. As of September December 31, 2022, the unrecognized amount of $24.6 million included $10.0 million in current deferred revenue and customer deposits and $14.6 million in non-current deferred revenue and customer deposits on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June
30, 2023, the unrecognized amount of deferred revenue and customer deposits was reduced to zero as a result of the Second Tranche Closing (see details below in section “The Second Tranche Closing”).
PDA, JVA, CCA and the SPA entered into with SK ecoplant concurrently were evaluated as a combined contract in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and, to the extent applicable for separated components, under the guidance of Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging and applicable subsections and ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.
We concluded that the Option was a freestanding financial instrument that should have been separately recorded at fair value on the date the SPA was executed.
On August 10, 2022, pursuant to the notice received fromSPA, SK ecoplant notified us of its intent to exercise its option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock, (seepursuant to a Second Tranche Exercise Notice (as defined in the SPA) electing to purchase 13,491,701 shares at a purchase price of $23.05 per share (the “Second Tranche Closing”). As of December 31, 2022, this option was accounted for as the equity-classified forward contract.
For further information, see Part II, Item 8, Note 5)17 - SK ecoplant Strategic Investment in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
The Second Tranche Closing
On March 20, 2023, SK ecoplant entered into the Amended SPA with us, pursuant to which on March 23, 2023, we issued and sold to SK ecoplant 13,491,701 shares of non-voting Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B RCPS”), there were an additional 13,491,701at a purchase price of $23.05 per share for cash proceeds of $311.0 million.
The Amended SPA triggered the modification of the equity-classified forward contract on Class A common stock, equivalents that were excludedwhich resulted in the derecognition of the pre-modification fair value of the forward contract given to SK ecoplant of $76.2 million. The derecognition of the pre-modification fair value was recorded in additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023.
The Series B RCPS was accounted for as a stock award with liability and equity components. The liability component of the Series B RCPS was recognized at the redemption value of $311.0 million and the equity component of the Series B RCPS was recognized at its fair value of $16.1 million on March 20, 2023 and recorded in current liabilities and additional paid-in capital, respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023.
On March 20, 2023, in connection with the Amended SPA we also entered into the Loan Agreement, pursuant to which we have the option to draw on a loan from SK ecoplant with a maximum principal amount of $311.0 million, should SK ecoplant send a redemption notice to us under the Amended SPA. The Loan Agreement has a maturity of five years and bears an interest rate of 4.6%.
The Loan Agreement is a freestanding financial instrument; accordingly, we recognized a loan commitment asset at its fair value of $52.8 million, of which $5.3 million was classified as current and $47.5 million was classified as non-current in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023. The loan commitment asset will be amortized to interest expense during the term of the Loan Agreement starting on the date the loan is drawn upon. Should SK ecoplant elect not to redeem the Series B RCPS under the Amended SPA, the loan commitment asset will be expensed immediately and recognized in interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Amended SPA and the Loan Agreement provided us with cash proceeds of $311.0 million and a loan commitment asset of $52.8 million from SK ecoplant for total consideration of $363.8 million. In return, SK ecoplant received consideration of $403.3 million, comprising of the release from the table above.obligation to close on the original transaction fair valued at $76.2 million, the obligation from us to issue the Series B RCPS at redemption value of $311.0 million, and the option to convert the Series B RCPS to Class A common stock, which has an estimated fair value of $16.1 million. The excess consideration provided by us amounted to $39.5 million, which resulted in a reduction of our deferred revenue and customer deposits by $24.6 million related to the Initial Investment, as of June 30, 2023. The net excess consideration of $14.9 million was recognized as $8.2 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $6.7 million was classified as other long-term assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023. The deferred expense is recognized as contra-revenue over the
take or pay period based on an estimate of the revenue we expect to receive under the remaining term of the PDA. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the deferred expense recognized as contra-revenue was immaterial.
Description of Series B RCPS - The significant rights and preferences of the Series B RCPS are as follows:

Overview
Description of Bloom Energy
Our mission is to make clean, reliable energy affordable for everyone in the world. We created the first large-scale, commercially viable solid oxide fuel-cell based power generation platform that empowers businesses, essential services, critical infrastructure and communities to responsibly take charge of their energy.
Our technology, invented in the United States, is one of the most advanced electricity and hydrogen producing technologies on the market today. Our fuel-flexible Bloom Energy Servers can use biogas, hydrogen, natural gas, or a blend of fuels to create resilient, sustainable and cost-predictable power at significantly higher efficiencies than traditional, combustion-based resources. In addition, our same solid oxide platform that powers our fuel cells can be used to create hydrogen, which is increasingly recognized as a critically important tool necessary for the full decarbonization of the energy economy. Our enterprise customers include some of the largest multinational corporations in the world. We also have strong relationships with some of the largest utility companies in the United States and the Republic of Korea.
At Bloom Energy, we look forward to a net-zero future. Our technology is designed to help enable this future in order to deliverby delivering reliable, low-carbon electricity in a world facing unacceptable levels of power disruptions. Our resilient platform has kept electricity available for our customers through hurricanes, earthquakes, typhoons, forest fires, extreme heat and grid failures. Unlike traditional combustion power generation, our platform is community-friendly and designed to significantly reduce emissions of criteria air pollutants. We have made tremendous progress makingtowards renewable fuel production a reality through our biogas, hydrogen and electrolyzer programs, and we believe that we are well-positioned as a core platform and fixture in the new energy paradigm to help organizations and communities achieve their net-zero objectives.
We market and sell our Energy Servers directly andprimarily through indirect channels to our customers bothdirect sales organization in the United States, and abroad. In order to appeal to the largest variety of customers,we also have direct and indirect sales channels internationally. Recognizing that deploying our solutions requires a significant financial commitment, we have developed a number of financing options to enable customers' usesupport sales of our Energy Servers to customers who lack the financial capability to purchase our Energy Servers directly, and who may prefer to finance the acquisition using third-party financing or to contract for our services on a pay-as-you-go model, made available through third-party ownership financing arrangements. For information about our different financing options, see Part II, Item 7model.

Our typical target commercial or industrial customer has historically been either an investment-grade entity or a customer with investment-grade attributes such as size, assets and revenue, liquidity, geographically diverse operations and general financial stability. We have also expanded our product and financing options to the below-investment-grade customer
customers and have also expanded internationally to target customers with deployments on a wholesale grid. Given that our customers are typically large institutions with multi-level decision making processes, we generally experience a lengthy sales process.
Strategic Investment
On October 23, 2021, we entered intoFor information on the SPAstrategic investment with SK ecoplant, in connection with a strategic partnership. Pursuant to the SPA, on December 29, 2021, we sold to SK ecoplant 10 million shares of zero coupon, non-voting redeemable convertible Series A Preferred Stock in us, par value $0.0001 per share (“RCPS”), at a purchase price of $25.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $255 million (the “Initial Investment”). According to the SPA, on December 29, 2022, the first anniversary of the original issue date, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock.
Please refer tosee Part II, Item 8, Note 1 - Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation, Liquidity section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Second Tranche Shares Option exercise notice received from fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and Part I, Item 1, Note 15 - SK ecoplant on August 10, 2022.Strategic Investment
Simultaneous with the execution of the SPA, we and SK ecoplant executed an amendment to the Joint Venture Agreement (“JVA”), an amendment and restatement to our Preferred Distribution Agreement (“PDA Restatement”) and a new Commercial Cooperation Agreement regarding initiatives pertaining to the hydrogen market and general market expansion for the Bloom Energy Server and Bloom Energy Electrolyzer..
Certain Factors Affecting our Performance
Global MacroeconomicEnergy Market Conditions
We generallyThe global energy transition to a zero-carbon environment has created new challenges and opportunities for utilities, suppliers of energy solutions and customers. Shifts and uncertainty in market and regulatory dynamics and corporate and governmental policies are seeing worsening global macroeconomic conditions, including risingcurrently impacting the selling process and extending sales cycles and timelines for the Company’s natural gas-, biogas- and hydrogen-related products. Increasing electricity rates, decreasing energy reliability, and delays in the development of transmission infrastructure and grid interconnection have led to increased customer interest rates, recession fears, foreign exchange rate volatilityin our power solutions, but at the same time natural gas supply and inflationary pressures,pricing concerns due to geopolitical stresses and resulting market changes as well as increasing geopolitical instability. These conditionsfocus on sustainability targets have led to increased caution from customers. The increased use of renewable power generation and weather effects of climate change have exacerbated aging grid fragilities, increased the occurrence of power outages, created grid transmission shortages and lengthened already extensively delayed interconnection cycles. Low- and zero-carbon sources of baseload energy have also been curtailed and even banned in some locations, forcing utilities, states and countries to revisit less clean sources of baseload and intermediate power in an attempt to ensure energy reliability. This supply and demand mismatch globally has threatened energy security reliability, reduced the availability of energy and increased the cost of energy.
Bloom’s power solutions enable customers to address these energy market challenges by offering fuel flexible solutions that are designed to provide cost predictable, resilient, reliable energy in a timely fashion. As customers and utilities navigate the energy transition and evolving landscape, the ability of our power solutions to fit their economic, regulatory and policy needs depends on a number of factors, including natural gas availability and pricing, electrical interconnection needs and availability, cost requirements and sustainability profile. Even in those situations where the time to power from the utility is years away in light of the need to build out energy transmission infrastructure, these factors still may impact our business in several ways.a customer’s buying decision. For example, the strengthening U.S. dollar has caused our Energy Servers to become relatively more expensive in several markets outside the United States, which, coupled with worsening global macroeconomic conditions, has the potential to adversely impact demand for our products. Our Energy Server Product runs on a variety of fuels, including natural gas. The rising cost of natural gas, limited availability of natural gas supply, as well as disruptions to the world gas markets increasehas increased the cost of our product topower solutions for the end customer.customers and, in certain cases where there is a lack of fuel supply, a complete inability to operate the systems. In the United States, in particular, the lack or slow development of pipeline infrastructure is impacting the timing of customers being able to take advantage of our power solution opportunities. In certain jurisdictions in the United States and Europe, natural gas bans have been enacted that prevent the use of our power solutions unless alternative fuels are available. In addition, there is a growing hesitancy by potential customers to purchase our power solutions to run on natural gas. Increasingly, customers want a zero-carbon solution for power, and, although our power solutions are designed to run on biofuels or hydrogen (in addition to natural gas) and help our customers achieve their sustainability goals, these fuels continue to have very limited availability and, for most customers, are not yet economical. This impetus by customers to use zero-carbon solutions today, combined with the current lack of availability of zero-carbon fuels, is impacting our power solution selling opportunities. Many of our potential data center and industrial customers are pursuing greenfield opportunities where the development cycle is long and the uncertainty of these factors is leading to a more difficult customer decision-making process and longer sales cycles.
Corporate procurement policy is also undergoing change that creates uncertainty; while some customers are increasingly focused on decarbonizing their own direct energy supply, including aligning the timing of their zero-carbon power generation with their energy consumption, others are shifting to prioritize overall carbon emissions from the energy system, both of which are impacting our sales.
The regulatory environment for energy solutions continues to shift. In South Korea, the government recently moved to an auction process for a fuel cell purchases, which may impact demand for our power solutions until alternative fuels are available. In the United States, the investment tax credit (ITC) for fuel cells running on a non-zero carbon fuel currently expires at the end of 2024. In Ireland, which is a large data center market, a directive from the Minister of the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications to restrict grid connections to data centers and other large power users, along with a halt in high-pressure gas installations has delayed our selling activities in Ireland. Delays in adoption of Renewable Fuel Standard
regulations in the United States for the use of biogas to generate electricity for electric vehicles, and minimal governmental focus on utilization of biogas outside of its direct use by methane-fueled vehicles, have created uncertainty in prospects for broader biogas availability for industrial uses, including our power solutions.
Significant governmental interest, investment and stimulation of clean hydrogen in the U.S., Europe and in many other regions across the globe have not yet had significant impacts on demand for hydrogen. To date, while the potential impactnumber of this on customer demandproposed hydrogen production projects has been offset by the customer needs for resiliencygrown rapidly, only a small fraction have reached final investment decision (FID) stage, and time to power that our Energy Server provides. In addition, these conditions also impact our manufacturing and supply chain, as discussed below.
Manufacturing and Labor Market Constraints
We are experiencing impacts from the ongoing labor shortage and continue to face challenges in hiring for our manufacturing facilities, which is exacerbated by absences for any employees who are recovering from oran even smaller fraction have been exposed to COVID-19. While we continue to dedicate resources to supporting our capacity expansion efforts, we are experiencing difficulties with hiring and retention, particularly for our new manufacturing facility in Fremont, California.deployed. In addition, the current inflationary environmentinfrastructure needed to transport hydrogen, whether through pipelines or maritime or land-based tankers, is currently only sufficient for existing uses, and has lednot begun to rising wages and labor rates and increased competitionbe extended for labor.

Supply Chain Constraints
We continue to see effects from the global supply chain disruptionstightness due to the current inflationary environment, war in Ukraine and are experiencing supply chain challengestrade tensions between the United States and logistics constraints.China. While we have not experienced any significant component shortages to date, we are facing pressures from longer lead times, shipping and freight delays, and increased costs of raw materials.times. These dynamics could worsen as a result of continued increase in geopolitical instability. In addition, the current inflationary environment and conflict in Ukraine has led to an increase in the price of components and raw materials. In the event we are unable to mitigate the impacts of delays and/or price increases in raw materials, components, and freight, it could delay the manufacturing and installation of our Energy Servers and increase the costcosts of our Energy Server,Servers, which would adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations, including revenueour revenues and gross margin.

Customer Financing Constraints
Our ability to obtain financing for our Energy Servers depends partially on the creditworthiness of our customers, and deterioration of our customers’ credit ratings can impact the financing for their use of our Energy Servers. Regional banking and financial institution instability, such as the failure of Silicon Valley Bank in the first quarter of 2023, may make it more difficult for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

We continue to monitorwork on obtaining the financing required for our 2023 installations, but if we are unable to secure such financing, our revenue, cash flow and adjust as appropriateliquidity could be materially impacted. We expect that in the United States, the IRA and the transferability of tax credits, should make the financing market more robust.
Installations and Maintenance of Energy Servers
In the first half of 2023, our operationsinstallation projects experienced some delays relating to, among other things, permitting, utility delays and access to customer facilities. However, these delays were not significant for our business.
If we are delayed in responseor unable to perform maintenance, our previously installed Energy Servers would likely experience adverse performance impacts, including reduced output and/or efficiency, which could result in warranty and/or guaranty claims by our customers. Further, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We maintain protocols to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission within our facilities, including enhanced cleaning and masking if required by the local authorities, as well as providing testing for all employees. We will continue to follow CDC and local guidelines when notified of possible exposures.For more information regarding the risks posed to our company by the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Products and Manufacturing –Our business has been and continues to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 -
For information on the IRA, which was signed into law on August 16, 2022, and its impact on our business, see Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 – New and Expanded Production and Tax Credits for Manufacturers and Projects to Support Clean Energy
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”). The IRA contains provisions which we expect will have a significant impact on the development and financing of clean energy projects in the United States over the next ten years. The IRA includes a number of key changes relevant to clean energy in the United States, among them the extension of the Investment Tax Credit and Production Tax Credit and the addition of expanded tax credits for other technologies and for manufacturing of clean energy equipment as well as terms allowing parties to more easily monetize the tax credits. The IRA also includes some targeted incentives intended to encourage development in low-income communities and the use of domestically produced materials and compliance with certain prevailing wage requirements. The IRA contains a two-tiered credit-amount structure for many applicable tax credits. Specifically, many of the credits have a lower base credit amount that can be increased up to five times if the taxpayer can satisfy applicable prevailing wage or apprenticeship requirements. In general, under the prevailing wage requirements, the IRA requires all laborers, mechanics and workers to be paid the prevailing wage during project construction (and, during the credit term, for repairs and alterations). Separately and subject to certain exceptions, to meet the apprenticeship requirements, qualified apprentices have to perform an applicable percentage of total labor hours for project construction. Further, the IRA establishes certain options to cure the failure to meet either the prevailing wage or apprenticeship requirements.

1 The PPA Entities'Entities’ operating and financing cash flows are a subset of our consolidated cash flows and represent the stand-alone cash flows prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Operating activities consist principally of cash used to run the operations of the PPA Entities, the purchase of Energy Servers from us and principal reductions in loan balances. Financing activities consist primarily of changes in debt carried by our PPAs, and payments from and distributions to noncontrolling partnership interests. We believe this presentation of net cash provided by (used in) PPA activities is useful to provide the reader with the impact to consolidated cash flows of the PPA Entities in which we have only a minority interest.
Operating Activities
Our operating activities have consisted of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items plus changes in our operating assets and liabilities or working capital.Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $361.2 million, an increase of $262.7 million compared to the prior year period. The increase in cash used in operating activities during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 as comparedcompared to the prior year period was primarily the result ofdue to an increase in our net loss and a decrease in our net working capital of $70.6$306.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to an increase in accounts receivable triggered by the timing of revenue transactions and corresponding collections, the increase in inventory levels to support future demand, and the timing of payments to vendors.vendors, partially offset by an improvement in our net loss.
Investing Activities
Our investing activities have consisted of capital expenditures, that include investmentincluding investments to increase our production capacity. We expect to continue such investing activities as our business grows. Cash used in investing activities of $80.9 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 was $46.1 million, an increase of $1.4 million compared to the prior year period, and was primarily the result ofdue to expenditures on tenant improvements for a newly leased engineering and manufacturing building in Fremont, California.California, opened in July 2022. We expect to continue to make capital expenditures over the next few quarters to prepare our new manufacturing facility in Fremont, California, for production, which includes the purchase of new equipment and other tenant improvements. We intend to fund these capital expenditures from cash on hand as well as cash flow to be generated from operations. We may also evaluate and arrange equipment lease financing to fund these capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Historically, our financing activities have consisted of borrowings and repayments of debt, proceeds and repayments of financing obligations, distributions paid to noncontrolling interests, contributions from noncontrolling interests, and the proceeds from the issuanceissuances of our common stock. Net cash provided by financing activities during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 was $305.2$811.8 million, an increase of $252.1$868.8 million compared to the prior year period, and was primarily due to the net proceeds from public share offeringthe issuance of $372.0the 3% Green Notes of $632.5 million, the proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock as part of the SK ecoplant Second Tranche Closing of $311.0 million, contribution from noncontrolling interest of $7.0 million and the proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $15.2$9.3 million, partially offset by our repayment of debt of $72.9 million, purchases of the repaymentCapped Calls of $54.5 million, payment of debt issuance costs related to PPA IIIathe issuance of $30.2 million and other debtthe 3% Green Notes of $17.3$15.8 million, and repayment of financing obligations of $28.8$8.7 million.
We believe we have the sufficient capital to operate our business over the next 12 months, including the completion of the build out of our manufacturing facilities. Our working capital was strengthened with the initial and subsequent investments by SK ecoplant and our public offering. In addition, we may still enter the equity or debt market as needed to support the expansion of our business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We include in our condensed consolidated financial statements all assets and liabilities and results of operations of our PPA Entities that we have entered into and over which we have substantial control. For additional information, see Part II, Item 8, Note 11 -Portfolio Financingsin our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.We have not entered into any other transactions that have generated relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships or special purpose entities. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. Our discussion and analysis of our financial results under Results of Operations above are based on our audited results of operations, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and net income. On an ongoing basis, we base our estimates on historical experience, as appropriate, and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the accounting estimates are representative of estimation uncertainty and are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity than our other accounting policies. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating the consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
The accounting policies that most frequently require us to make assumptions, judgments and estimates, and therefore are critical to understanding our results of operations, include:
•Discussion of Earliest Year of Changes in Financial Condition and Results of Operations;
•Revenue Recognition;
•Leases: Incremental Borrowing Rate;
•Valuation of Escalator Protection Plan Agreements (“EPP”);
•Valuation of Certain Financial Instruments and Customer Financing Receivables;
•Valuation of Assets and Liabilities of the SK ecoplant Strategic Investment;
•Incremental Borrowing Rate (“IBR”) by Lease Class;
•Stock-Based Compensation;
•Income Taxes;Taxes;
•Principles of Consolidation; and
•Allocation of Profits and Losses of Consolidated Entities to Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.
Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsOperation in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20212022 provides a more complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.
