(UNAUDITED)

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements follows.

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Telkonet, Inc. (the “Company”, “Telkonet”) have been prepared in accordance with Rule S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. However, the results from operations for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated December 31, ~~2018~~2019 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Business and Basis of Presentation

Telkonet, Inc. (the “Company”, “Telkonet”), formed in 1999 and incorporated under the laws of the state of Utah, is the creator of the EcoSmart Platform of intelligent automation solutions designed to optimize energy efficiency, comfort and analytics in support of the emerging Internet of Things (“IoT”).

In 2007, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Smart Systems International (“SSI”), which was a provider of energy management products and solutions to customers in the United States and Canada and the precursor to the Company’s EcoSmart platform. The EcoSmart platform provides comprehensive savings, management reporting, analytics and virtual engineering of a customer’s portfolio and/or property’s room-by-room energy consumption. Telkonet has deployed more than a half million intelligent devices worldwide in properties within the hospitality, military, educational, healthcare and other commercial markets. The EcoSmart platform is recognized as a solution for reducing energy consumption, operational costs and carbon footprints, and eliminating the need for new energy generation in these marketplaces – all whilst improving occupant comfort and convenience.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Telkonet Communications, Inc. We currently operate in a single reportable business segment.

Going Concern and Management’s Plan

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future and, thus, do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

9
Since inception through June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we have incurred cumulative losses of ~~$124,535,585~~$126,708,137 and have never generated enough ~~funds~~cash through operations to support our business. For the six-month period ended June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~an operating~~a cash flow deficit from operations of ~~$2,035,842~~$488,107. Since 2012, the Company has made significant investments in the engineering, development and marketing of an intelligent automation platform, including but not limited to, hardware and software enhancements, support services and applications. The funding for these development efforts has contributed to the ongoing operating losses and use of cash. Operating losses have been financed by debt and equity transactions, credit facility capacity, the sale of a wholly-owned subsidiary and management of working capital levels. The report from ~~operations.~~ our previous independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 stated there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating profitable operations in the future and obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing at commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If cash resources become insufficient to meet the Company’s ongoing obligations, the Company will be required to scale back or discontinue portions of its operations or discontinue operations entirely, whereby, the Company’s shareholders may lose some or all of their investment.

The Company’s operations and financial results have also been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Both the health and economic aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly fluid and the future course of each is uncertain. We cannot predict whether the outbreak of COVID-19 will be effectively contained on a sustained basis, nor the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may continue to be materially and adversely impacted as a result of the deteriorating market outlook, the global economic recession, weakened liquidity, or other factors that we cannot foresee.
The Company’s sales and gross profits have decreased significantly resulting from a contraction in commercial demand for our products, a lower revenue conversion rate in our existing pipeline and significant one-off transactions from customers in 2019 that have not been, and are not expected to be, repeated in 2020. Due to travel restrictions, social distancing and shelter at home edicts, the hospitality industry, our largest market that generally contributes more than 50% of our revenue, has suffered as much as any. According to a new study prepared for the U.S. Travel Association by Tourism Economics, domestic travel spending will likely drop 45% by the end of 2020.¹ According to data from STR, during the second quarter, an estimated 5,100 hotels closed temporarily in the U.S.¹
At this time, the length or severity of this pandemic is unknown. Depending on the length and severity, the demand for our products, our customers’ ability to meet payment obligations to the Company, our supply chain and production capabilities, and our workforces’ ability to deliver our products and services could be impacted. Management is actively monitoring the impact of the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. While we expect this disruption to continue to have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, the Company is unable to reasonably determine the impact at this time.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects (and potential further effects) on the Company’s operations and financial results, the Company has taken, and is continuing to take, a number of actions to preserve cash. These actions include suspending the use of engineering consultants, and cancelling all non-essential travel and the Company’s attendance at tradeshows (implemented prior to applicable government stay-at-home orders being put in place). In early April of 2020, management made the decision to furlough certain employees, instituted pay cuts for certain other employees and suspended the Company’s 401(k) match through the end of 2020. With the receipt of the PPP Loan (discussed below), the Company was able to bring back the furloughed employees, restore payroll to prior levels and delay suspension of the 401(k) match. However, the pandemic continues to impact the Company’s operations and financial results, and consequently, in late June of 2020 management once again made the decision to furlough certain employees, instituted pay cuts for certain other employees and suspended the Company’s 401(k) match through the end of 2020.

~~We have~~The actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are in addition to the cost elimination and liquidity management actions that the Company began implementing in the second half of 2019, including reviewing opportunities to decrease spend with third party consultants and providers, strategically reviewing whether or not to fill employee positions in the event of vacancies, and implementing sales campaigns to sell slow-moving inventory and reduce existing inventory volumes. There is no guarantee, however, that these actions, nor any other actions identified, ~~and cannot be certain we~~ will ~~be able to identify, a course of action that guarantees the achievement of~~yield profitable operations in the foreseeable future.
In addition to the actions noted above, on April 21, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note, dated April 17, 2020 (“the PPP Loan”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce for a $913,063 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) SBA 7(a) loan. The PPP SBA 7(a) loan program is being administered by the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and was authorized by the Keeping American Workers Employed and Paid Act, which is part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act that was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The principal amount of the Loan is $913,063, bears interest of 1.0% per annum and has a maturity date of April 21, 2022. See Note G – Debt for a summary of the terms.
On June ~~2018,~~5, 2020, the PPP Flexibility Act of 2020 was signed into law. It amended the CARES Act and eased rules on how and when recipients can use loans and still be eligible for forgiveness. The PPP Flexibility Act of 2020 changed many aspects of the PPP, including: (1) extending the covered period for loan forgiveness purposes from eight weeks to the earlier of 24 weeks from the loan origination date or December 31, 2020; (2) lowering the amount required to be spent on payroll costs from 75% to 60% of the loan principal; (3) extending the loan maturity period from two years to five years for PPP Loans made on or after June 5, 2020; and (4) revising the loan payment deferral period until the date when the amount of loan forgiveness is determined and remitted to the lender.
At June 30, 2020, the PPP loan totaled $913,063, is presented on the balance sheet as current debt and excludes any possible forgiveness. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.
At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $3,101,209 of cash and approximately $664,000 of availability on its credit facility. However, the credit facility requires that the Company maintain an unrestricted cash balance of $2,000,000, limiting the ability of the Company to use its cash reserves to fund its operations. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance on the credit facility was $0.
The Company has used the proceeds of the PPP Loan to support its ongoing operations and currently expects to also draw on its cash reserves and utilize the credit facility to finance its near-term working capital needs. It expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for one year beyond the date of these financial statements. The Credit Facility provides us with needed liquidity to assist in meeting our obligations or pursuing strategic objectives. Continued operating losses will deplete these cash reserves and could result in a violation of the financial covenants. Consequently, repayment of amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility may be accelerated and Heritage Bank’s commitment to extend credit under the Heritage Bank Loan Agreement may be terminated. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
The Company’s Board ~~engaged an investment bank~~also continues to ~~identify~~consider strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value, including but not limited to, a sale of the Company, an investment in the Company, a merger or other business combination, a sale of all or substantially all assets or a strategic joint venture. However, these actions are not solely within the control of the Company. At August ~~13, 2019,~~14, 2020, no definitive alternatives had been identified.

At June 30, 2019, the Company had $3,380,382 of cash and approximately $1,056,000 of availability on its credit facility. The Company currently expects to draw on these cash reserves and utilize the credit facility to finance its near term working capital needs. It expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for one year beyond the date of these financial statements. Accordingly, and in light of the Company’s historic ~~and continuing~~ losses, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share under ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes that the proceeds to be received on exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants are used to repurchase shares of the Company at the average market price of the common shares for the year. Dilutive common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of the Company's outstanding stock options and warrants. For both the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, there were 3,599,793 ~~and 3,557,399~~ shares of common stock underlying options and warrants excluded due to these instruments being ~~anti-dilutive, respectively.~~anti-dilutive.
Shares used in the calculation of diluted EPS are summarized below:

Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 136,311,335 135,085,519 135,814,956 134,477,460

Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted 136,311,335 135,085,519 135,814,956 134,497,822

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States of America (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters such as revenue recognition and allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, depreciation and amortization, long-lived assets, taxes and related valuation allowance, ~~and~~ income tax provisions, stock-based compensation, and contingencies. The Company believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10 “Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred income taxes (when required) are provided based on the difference between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating losses at the statutory rates enacted for future periods. The Company has a policy of establishing a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of its deferred income tax assets in the future.

The Company ~~adopted~~follows ASC 740-10-25, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, treatment of interest and penalties, and disclosure of such positions.

912

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606, the Standard”) supersedes nearly all legacy revenue recognition guidance. ASC 606, the Standard outlines a comprehensive five-step revenue recognition model based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue based on when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for said goods or services.

Identify the customer contracts

The Company accounts for a customer contract under ASC 606 when the contract ~~is legally enforceable.~~has enforceable rights and obligations. A contract is legally enforceable when all of the following criteria are met: (1) the contract has been approved by the Company and the customer and both parties are committed to perform their respective obligations, (2) the Company can identify each party’s rights regarding goods or services transferred, (3) the Company can identify payment terms for goods or services transferred, (4) the contract has commercial substance, and (5) collectability of all the consideration to which the Company is entitled in exchange for the goods or services transferred is probable.

A contract does not exist if each party to the contract has the unilateral right to terminate a wholly unperformed contract without compensating the other party (or parties). Nearly all of the Company’s contracts do not contain such mutual termination rights for convenience. All contracts are in written form.

Identify the performance obligations

The Company will enter into product only contracts that contain a single performance obligation related to the transfer of EcoSmart products to a customer.

The Company will also enter into certain customer contracts that encompass product and installation services, referred to as “turnkey” solutions. These contracts ultimately provide the customer with a solution that enhances the functionality of the customer’s existing equipment. For this reason, the Company has determined that the product and installation services are not separately identifiable performance obligations, but in essence represent one, combined performance obligation (“turnkey”).

The Company also offers technical phone support services to customers. This service is considered a separate performance obligation.

Determine the transaction price

The Company generally enters into contracts containing fixed prices. It is not customary for the Company to include contract terms that would result in variable consideration. In the rare situation that a contract does include this type of provision, it is not expected to result in a material adjustment to the transaction price. The Company regularly extends pricing discounts; however, they are negotiated up front and adjust the fixed transaction price set out in the contract.

Customer contracts will typically contain upfront deposits that will be applied against future invoices, as well as customer retainage. The intent of any required deposit or retainage is to ensure that the obligations of either party are honored and follow customary industry practices. In addition, the Company will typically be paid in advance at the beginning of any support contracts, consistent with industry practices. None of these payment provisions are intended to represent significant implicit financing. The Company’s standard payment terms are thirty days from invoice date. Products are fully refundable when returned in their original packaging without damage or defacing less a restocking fee. Historical returns have shown to be immaterial. The Company offers a standard one-year assurance warranty. However customers can purchase an extended warranty. Under the new standard, extended warranties are accounted for as a service warranty, requiring the revenue to be recognized over the extended service periods. Contracts involving an extended warranty are immaterial and will continue to be combined with technical phone support services revenue and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

1013

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

Revenues from customer contracts are allocated to the separate performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling price (“SSP”) at contract inception. The SSP is the price at which the Company would sell a promised good or service separately. The best evidence of an SSP is the observable price of a good or service when the entity sells that good or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. However, turnkey solutions are sold for a broad range of amounts resulting from, but not limited to, tiered discounting for value added resellers (“VAR”) based upon committed volumes and other economic factors. Due to the high variability of our pricing, the Company cannot establish a reliable SSP using observable data. Accordingly, the Company uses the residual approach to allocate the transaction price to performance obligations related to its turnkey solutions. When support services are not included within the turnkey solution, the residual method is not utilized and no allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation is necessary.

All support service agreements, whether single or multi-year terms, automatically renew for one-year terms at a suggested retail price (“SRP”). Support service renewals are consistently priced and therefore would support the use of SRP as the best estimate of an SSP for such performance obligations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues from product only sales at a point in time, when control over the product has transferred to the customer. As the Company’s principal terms of sale are FOB shipping point, the Company primarily transfers control and records revenue for product only sales upon shipment.

A typical turnkey project involves the installation and integration of 200-300 rooms in a customer-controlled facility and usually takes sixty days to complete. Since control over goods and services transfers to a customer once a room is installed, the Company recognizes revenue for turnkey solutions over time. The Company uses an outputs measure based on the number of rooms installed to recognize revenues from turnkey solutions.

Revenues from support services are recognized over time, in even daily increments over the term of the contract, and are presented as “Recurring Revenue” in the Statement of Operations.

Contracts are billed in accordance with the terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon substantial completion. This can result in billing occurring subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are presented as current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Contract liabilities include deferrals for the monthly support service fees. Long-term contract liabilities represent support service fees that will be recognized as revenue after June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Contract ~~Fulfillment~~Completion Cost

The Company recognizes related costs of the contract over time in relation to the revenue ~~recognized.~~recognition. Costs included within the projects relate to the cost of ~~the~~ material, direct labor and costs of outside services utilized to complete projects. These are ~~represented~~presented as “Contract assets” in the ~~condensed~~ consolidated balance sheets.
Sales Taxes
Unless provided with a resale or tax exemption certificate, the Company assesses and collects sales tax on sales transactions and records the amount as a liability. It is recognized as a liability until remitted to the applicable state. Total revenues do not include sales tax as the Company is considered a pass through conduit for collecting and remitting sales taxes.
14

Guarantees and Product Warranties

The Company records a liability for potential warranty claims in cost of sales at the time of sale. The amount of the liability is based on the trend in the historical ratio of claims to sales, the historical length of time between the sale and resulting warranty claim, new product introductions and other factors. The products sold are generally covered by a warranty for a period of one year. In the event the Company determines that its current or future product repair and replacement costs exceed its estimates, an adjustment to these reserves would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. For the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and the year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company experienced returns of approximately 1% to 2%3% of materials included in the cost of sales. As of June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company recorded warranty liabilities in the amount of ~~$32,503~~$52,528 and ~~$46,103,~~$58,791, respectively, using this experience factor range.
11

Product warranties for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019 are as follows:

June 30,
2019 December 31,
2018 June 30,
2020 December 31,
2019
Beginning balance $ 46,103 $ 59,892 $ 58,791 $ 46,103
Warranty claims incurred (37,658 ) (28,000 ) (10,838 ) (66,803 )
Provision charged to expense 24,058 14,211 4,575 79,491
Ending balance $ 32,503 $ 46,103 $ 52,528 $ 58,791
Advertising
The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expenses as incurred. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred advertising costs of $1,269 and $25,337, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred advertising costs of $7,162 and $36,142, respectively.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the ASC 730-10, “Research and Development”. Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. Total expenditures on research and product development for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $291,849 and $425,670, respectively. Research and product development expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $661,092 and $912,296, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based awards in accordance with ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Compensation”, which requires a fair value measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to the Company’s employees and directors, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This model requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions including, among other things, estimates regarding the length of time an employee will hold vested stock options before exercising them, the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price and the number of options that will be forfeited prior to vesting. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions can materially affect the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
15
The expected term of the options represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. The expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock for the related expected term.
Total stock-based compensation expense in connection with options granted to employees recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity was $1,815 for both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Total stock-based compensation expense in connection with options granted to employees was $3,631 for both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

NOTE B – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 provides guidance for estimating credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables, by introducing an approach based on expected losses. The expected loss approach will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 also amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The guidance ~~is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance~~ requires a modified retrospective transition method and early adoption is permitted. ~~The Company does not expect~~In November 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Derivatives and Hedging, and Leases (“ASU 2019-10”), which defers the adoption of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies until January 1, 2023. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This guidance modifies, removes, and adds certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on ~~its~~the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe ~~that~~ any ~~of these pronouncements~~ will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

~~Accounting Standards Recently Adopted~~
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company has adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), subsequently amended in 2018 by ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 and codified in ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods thereafter. Earlier application was permitted, however the Company did not elect to do so. ASC 842 supersedes current lease guidance in ASC 840 and requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability for substantially all leases. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of the remaining lease payments while the right-of-use asset will be similarly calculated and then adjusted for initial direct costs. In addition, ASC 842 expands the disclosure requirements to increase the transparency and comparability of the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.
We chose to elect available practical expedients permitted under the guidance, which among other items, allowed the Company to carry forward its historical lease classification to not reassess leases for the definition of lease under the new standard, and to not reassess initial direct costs for existing leases. Refer below for practical expedient package adopted:
· ~~Whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of the lease;~~
· ~~Lease classification for expired or existing leases; and~~
· ~~Whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under ASC 842.~~
Upon the adoption of ASC 842, we have elected to not recognize a right-of-use asset and related lease liability for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less as an accounting policy choice and elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.NOTE C – REVENUE

Contracts are billed in accordance with the terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon substantial completion. This can result in billings occurring subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are presented as current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. ~~There were $0.2 million of costs incurred to fulfill contracts in the closing balance of contract assets.~~

Often, the Company will require customers to pay a deposit upon contract signing that will be applied against work performed or products shipped. In addition, the Company will often invoice the full term of support at the start of the support period. Billings that occur prior to revenue recognition result in contract liabilities. The change in the contract liability balance during the six-month period ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 is the result of cash payments received and billing in advance of satisfying performance obligations.

Contract costs
Costs to complete a turnkey contract primarily relate to the materials cost and direct labor and are recognized proportionately as the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company will defer costs to complete a contract when materials have shipped (and control over the materials has transferred to the customer), but an insignificant amount of rooms have been installed. The Company will recognize any deferred costs in proportion to revenues recognized from the related turnkey contract. The Company does not expect deferred contract costs to be long-lived since a typical turnkey project takes sixty days to complete. Deferred contract costs are generally presented as other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company incurs incremental costs to obtain a contract in the form of sales commissions. These costs, whether related to performance obligations that extend beyond twelve months or not, are immaterial and will continue to be recognized in the period incurred within selling, general and administrative expenses.

~~The~~On September 30, 2014, the Company ~~is a party to~~entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Heritage Bank Loan Agreement”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce, a California state chartered bank (“Heritage Bank”), governing a revolving credit facility in a principal amount not to exceed $2,000,000 (the “Credit Facility”). Availability of borrowings under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculation based on the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory each multiplied by an applicable advance rate, with an overall limitation tied to the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. The Heritage Bank Loan Agreement is available for working capital and other general business purposes.
The outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facility bears interest at the Prime Rate plus 3.00%, which was ~~8.50%~~6.25% at June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~8.50% at~~7.75% December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Paycheck Protection Program
On April 21, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note, dated as ~~detailed in~~ of April 17, 2020 (“the ~~Company’s Amended~~PPP Loan”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce under the PPP administered by the United States SBA and ~~Restated Articles~~authorized by the Keeping American Workers Employed and Paid Act, which is part of ~~Incorporation related to both~~ the CARES Act, enacted on March 27, 2020. The principal amount of the PPP Loan is $913,063, bears interest of 1.0% per annum and was disbursed on April 21, 2020.
The PPP Loan has a maturity date of April 21, 2022. No payments of principal or interest are required during the first six months, but interest accrues during this period. The PPP Flexibility Act (discussed below) extended the six-month loan payment deferral period. After the deferral period, monthly payments of ~~dividends~~principal and ~~as to payments upon liquidation in preference~~interest are required and continue until maturity with respect to any ~~other class or series of capital stock~~portion of the ~~Company. As~~PPP Loan not forgiven, as discussed below. The PPP Loan may be prepaid, in full or in part, at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The note contains events of ~~June 30, 2019,~~default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type.
Under the ~~liquidation preference~~terms of the ~~preferred stock is~~PPP, the Company can apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP Loan. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations and ongoing rulemaking by the SBA, based on the use of loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent, utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. Prior to the enactment of the PPP Flexibility Act, at least 75% of such forgiven amounts must be used for eligible payroll costs. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the Company terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period following ~~order: first, Series B with a preference value~~the date the proceeds are disbursed, and if it is not eligible to claim any of ~~$445,406, which includes cumulative accrued unpaid dividends~~the safe harbors or exemptions.

It amended the CARES Act and ~~second, Series A with a preference value~~eased rules on how and when recipients can use loans and still be eligible for forgiveness. The PPP Flexibility Act changed many aspects of ~~$1,636,875, which includes cumulative accrued unpaid dividends~~the PPP, including: (1) extending the covered period for loan forgiveness purposes from eight weeks to the earlier of ~~$711,875. As of~~24 weeks from the loan origination date or December 31, ~~2018,~~2020; (2) lowering the ~~liquidation preference~~amount required to be spent on payroll costs from 75% to 60% of the ~~preferred stock~~loan principal; (3) extending the loan maturity period from two years to five years for PPP loans made on or after June 5, 2020; and (4) revising the loan payment deferral period until the date when the amount of loan forgiveness is ~~based on~~determined and remitted to the ~~following order: first, Series B with a preference value~~lender. For PPP recipients who do not apply for forgiveness, the loan payment deferral period expires ten months after the applicable forgiveness period ends. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of ~~$435,081, which includes cumulative accrued unpaid dividends of $175,081, and second, Series A with a preference value of $1,600,168, which includes cumulative accrued unpaid dividends of $675,168.~~the PPP Loan in whole or in part.

Office Leases Obligations

~~On January 1, 2019~~In October 2013, the Company ~~adopted ASC Topic 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”), which supersedes ASC Topic 840 “Leases” (“ASC 840”), using the alternative transition method~~entered into a lease agreement for 6,362 square feet of ~~adoption. Under this method of adoption,~~commercial office space in Waukesha, Wisconsin for its corporate headquarters. The Waukesha lease would have expired in April 2021, but was subsequently amended and extended through April 2026. On April 7, 2017 the Company ~~has recognized and measured all leases that exist~~executed an amendment to its’ existing lease in Waukesha, Wisconsin to expand another 3,982 square feet, bringing the total leased space to 10,344 square feet. In addition, the lease term was extended from May 1, 2021 to April 30, 2026. The commencement date for this amendment was July 15, 2017.
In January 2016, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 2,237 square feet of commercial office space in Germantown, Maryland for its Maryland employees. The Germantown lease, as amended, was set to expire at January 1, 2019 (the effective date) using a modified retrospective transition approach. Comparative periods are presented in accordance with Topic 840 and do not include any retrospective adjustments to comparative periods to reflect the ~~adoption of Topic 842. Any cumulative-effect adjustments to retained earnings is recognized as~~end of January 1,2018. In November 2017, the Company entered into a second amendment to the lease agreement extending the lease through the end of January 2019. ~~Upon adoption, we recognized our leases with greater than one year in duration on~~In November 2018, the ~~balance sheet as right-of-use assets and~~Company entered into a third amendment to the lease ~~liabilities. For income statement purposes,~~agreement extending the ~~FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification is based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in prior~~ lease ~~accounting, but without explicit lines. We have made certain assumptions in judgments when applying ASC 842. Those judgments~~through the end of ~~most significance are as follows:~~January 2022.

· ~~We elected the package of practical expedients available for transition which allow us to not reassess the following:~~
In May 2017, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 5,838 square feet of floor space in Waukesha, Wisconsin for its inventory warehousing operations. The Waukesha lease expires in May 2024.
o ~~Whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of the lease;~~
o ~~Lease classification for expired or existing leases; and~~
o ~~Whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under ASC 842.~~
· ~~We did not elect to use hindsight for transition when considering judgments and estimates such as assessments of lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or purchase the underlying asset.~~
· ~~For all asset classes, we elected to not recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases with a term of 12 months or less.~~
· For all asset classes, we elected to not separate non-lease components from lease components to which they relate and have accounted for the combined lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

~~We determine~~The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys to the Company the right to control the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified fixed asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed to the Company if the Company obtains the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from using the underlying asset. The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components to which they relate and accounts for the combined lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Operating leases are included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities -– current and operating lease liabilities – ~~long term. Upon adoption, the Company determined there were no financing leases.~~long-term. We do not recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases with a term of 12 months or less. Our current operating leases are for ~~facilities and office equipment.~~facilities. Our leases may contain renewal options; however, we do not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for renewal periods unless it is determined that we are reasonably certain of renewing the lease at inception or when a triggering event occurs. Some of our lease agreements may contain rent escalation clauses, rent holidays, capital improvement funding, or other lease concessions.
In determining our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, we apply a discount rate to the minimum lease payments within each lease agreement. ASC 842 requires us to use the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. When we cannot readily determine the discount rate implicit in the lease agreement, we utilize our current borrowing rate on our outstanding line of credit. The Company’s line of credit utilizes market rates to assess an interest rate. Refer to Note G for further discussion.
We recognize our minimum rental expense on a straight-line basis based on the fixed components of a lease arrangement. Payments are set on a pre-determined schedule within each lease agreement. We amortize this expense over the term of the lease beginning with the date of the standard adoption for current leases and beginning with the date of initial possession, which is the date we enter the leased space and begin to make improvements in the preparation for its intended use, for future leases. Variable lease components represent amounts that are not fixed in nature and are not tied to an index or rate, and are recognized as incurred. Variable lease components consist primarily of the Company's proportionate share of common area maintenance, utilities, taxes and ~~insurance.~~
The Company does not, upon adoption of ASC 842, control a specific space or underlying asset used in providing a service by a third-party service provider, under any third party service agreements. Thereinsurance and are ~~no such arrangements that meet the definition under ASC 842.~~
In determining our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, we apply a discount rate to the minimum lease payments within each lease agreement.

~~EBITDA from Operations~~Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and ~~amortization~~stock-based compensation (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a metric used by management and frequently used by the financial community. Adjusted EBITDA provides insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and ~~amortization~~stock-based compensation can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA is one of the measures used for determining our debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. While management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our GAAP financial results. Adjusted EBITDA is not, and should not be considered, an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss) ~~from operations,~~, or any other measure for determining operating performance ofor liquidity, as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). In assessing the overall health of its business for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, the Company excluded items in the following general ~~category~~categories described below:

· Stock-based compensation: The Company believes that because of the variety of equity awards used by companies, varying methodologies for determining stock-based compensation and the assumptions and estimates involved in those determinations, the exclusion of non-cash stock-based compensation ~~expense related to employee stock options~~ enhances the ability of management and investors to understand the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation on our operating results. Further, the Company believes that excluding stock-based compensation expense ~~related to employee stock options~~ allows for a more transparent comparison of its financial results to the previous ~~period.~~

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the six-month period ended June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company reported a net loss of ~~$1,364,179~~$1,602,598 and had cash used in operating activities of ~~$2,035,842~~$488,107 and ended the period with an accumulated deficit of ~~$124,535,585~~$126,708,137 and total current assets in excess of current liabilities of ~~$4,717,535.~~$2,619,199. At June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had ~~$3,380,382~~$3,101,209 of cash and approximately ~~$1,056,000~~$664,000 of availability on its credit facility. The credit facility is a $2,000,000 line of credit, which is subject to a borrowing base calculation based on the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory each multiplied by an applicable advance rate, with an overall limitation tied to the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had a total borrowing ~~capacity~~base of ~~$2,000,000 and~~approximately $714,000, an outstanding balance of ~~approximately $864,000,~~$0, and a cash management services reserve of $50,000, resulting in the approximate availability of ~~$1,056,000~~$664,000 on the credit facility.

Since inception ~~the Company has~~through June 30, 2020, we have incurred ~~operating~~cumulative losses of $126,708,137 and ~~has reported negative~~have never generated enough cash ~~flows from operating activities.~~through operations to support our business. Since 2012, the Company has made significant investments in the engineering, development and marketing of an intelligent automation platform, including but not limited to, hardware and software enhancements, support services and applications. The funding for these development efforts has contributed to the ongoing operating losses and use of cash. Operating losses have been financed by debt and equity transactions, credit facility capacity, the sale of a wholly-owned subsidiary and management of working capital levels. The report from our previous independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019 stated there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating profitable operations in the future ~~and/or securing~~and obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing at commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If cash resources become insufficient to meet the Company’s ongoing obligations, the Company will be required to scale back or discontinue portions of its operations or discontinue operations entirely, whereby, the Company’s shareholders may lose some or all of their investment.

30
The Company’s operations and financial results have also been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Both the health and economic aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly fluid and the future course of each is uncertain. We cannot predict whether the outbreak of COVID-19 will be effectively contained on a sustained basis, nor the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may continue to be materially and adversely impacted as a result of the deteriorating market outlook, the global economic recession, weakened liquidity or other factors that we cannot foresee.
The Company’s sales and gross profits have decreased significantly resulting from a contraction in commercial demand for our products, a lower revenue conversion rate in our existing pipeline and significant one-off transactions from customers in 2019 that have not ~~identified,~~been, and ~~cannot~~are not expected to be, repeated in 2020. Due to travel restrictions, social distancing and shelter at home edicts, the hospitality industry, our largest market that generally contributes more than 50% of our revenue, has suffered as much as any. According to a new study prepared for the U.S. Travel Association by Tourism Economics, domestic travel spending will likely drop 45% by the end of 2020.² According to data from STR, during the second quarter, an estimated 5,100 hotels closed temporarily in the U.S.²
At this time, the length or severity of this pandemic is unknown. Depending on the length and severity, the demand for our products, our customers’ ability to meet payment obligations to the Company, our supply chain and production capabilities, and our workforces’ ability to deliver our products and services could be impacted. Management is actively monitoring the impact of the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. While we expect this disruption to continue to have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, the Company is unable to reasonably determine the impact at this time.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects (and potential further effects) on the Company’s operations and financial results, the Company has taken, and is continuing to take, a number of actions to preserve cash. These actions include suspending the use of engineering consultants, and cancelling all non-essential travel and the Company’s attendance at tradeshows (implemented prior to applicable government stay-at-home orders being put in place). In early April of 2020, management made the decision to furlough certain ~~we will be~~employees, instituted pay cuts for certain other employees and suspended the Company’s 401(k) match through the end of 2020. With the receipt of the PPP Loan (discussed below), the Company was able to ~~identify, a course~~bring back the furloughed employees, restore payroll to prior levels and delay suspension of ~~action~~the 401(k) match. However, the pandemic continues to impact the Company’s operations and financial results, and consequently, in late June of 2020 management once again made the decision to furlough certain employees, instituted pay cuts for certain other employees and suspended the Company’s 401(k) match through the end of 2020.
The actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are in addition to the cost elimination and liquidity management actions that ~~guarantees~~ the ~~achievement~~Company began implementing in the second half of 2019, including reviewing opportunities to decrease spend with third party consultants and providers, strategically reviewing whether or not to fill employee positions in the event of vacancies, and implementing sales campaigns to sell slow-moving inventory and reduce existing inventory volumes. There is no guarantee, however, that these actions, nor any other actions identified, will yield profitable operations in the foreseeable future.
In addition to the actions noted above, on April 21, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note, dated as of April 17, 2020 (“the PPP Loan”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce for a $913,063 loan under the PPP SBA 7(a) loan. The PPP SBA 7(a) loan program is being administered by the United States SBA and was authorized by the Keeping American Workers Employed and Paid Act, which is part of the CARES Act that was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The principal amount of the Loan is $913,063, bears interest of 1.0% per annum and has a maturity date of April 21, 2022. See Note G – Debt for a summary of the terms.
On June ~~2018,~~5, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 was signed into law. It amended the CARES Act and eased rules on how and when recipients can use loans and still be eligible for forgiveness. The PPP Flexibility Act of 2020 changed many aspects of the PPP, including: (1) extending the covered period for loan forgiveness purposes from eight weeks to the earlier of 24 weeks from the loan origination date or December 31, 2020; (2) lowering the amount required to be spent on payroll costs from 75% to 60% of the loan principal; (3) extending the loan maturity period from two to five years for PPP Loans made on or after June 5, 2020; and (4) revising the loan payment deferral period until the date when the amount of loan forgiveness is determined and remitted to the lender. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.

At June 30, 2020, the PPP loan totaled $913,063 and is presented on the balance sheet as current debt and excludes any possible forgiveness. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.
At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $3,101,209 of cash and approximately $664,000 of availability on its credit facility. However, the credit facility requires that the Company maintain an unrestricted cash balance of $2,000,000, limiting the ability of the Company to use its cash reserves to fund its operations. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance on the credit facility was $0.
The Company has used the proceeds of the PPP Loan to support its ongoing operations and currently expects to also draw on its cash reserves and utilize the credit facility to finance its near-term working capital needs. It expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for one year beyond the date of these financial statements. The Credit Facility provides us with needed liquidity to assist in meeting our obligations or pursuing strategic objectives. Continued operating losses will deplete these cash reserves and could result in a violation of the financial covenants. Consequently, repayment of amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility may be accelerated and Heritage Bank’s commitment to extend credit under the Heritage Bank Loan Agreement may be terminated. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
The Company’s Board ~~engaged an investment bank~~also continues to ~~identify~~consider strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value, including but not limited to, a sale of the Company, an investment in the Company, a merger or other business combination, a sale of all or substantially all assets or a strategic joint venture. However, these actions are not solely within the control of the Company. At August ~~13, 2019,~~14, 2020, no definitive alternatives had been identified.

The Company expects to draw on its’ cash reserves and utilize the credit facility to the extent availability exists to finance its near term working capital needs. We expect to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for one year beyond the date of these financial statements. Accordingly, and in light of the Company’s historic ~~and continuing~~ losses, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Working Capital

Working capital (current assets in excess of current liabilities) ~~from operations~~ decreased by ~~$1,488,766~~$1,568,250 during the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 from ~~working capital of $6,206,299~~$4,187,449 at December 31, ~~2018~~2019 to ~~working capital of $4,717,533~~$2,619,199 at June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in accounts receivable and inventory were primarily a result of the decline in revenues, and the decrease in accounts payable was primarily a result of the decline in revenues and cost containment actions.

Revolving Credit Facility
~~The~~On September 30, 2014, the Company ~~is a party to~~entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Heritage Bank Loan Agreement”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce, a California state chartered bank (“Heritage Bank”), governing a revolving credit facility in a principal amount not to exceed $2,000,000 (the “Credit Facility”). Availability of borrowings under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculation based on the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory each multiplied by an applicable advance rate, with an overall limitation tied to the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. The Heritage Bank Loan Agreement is available for working capital and other general business purposes.
The outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facility bears interest at the Prime Rate plus 3.00%, which was ~~8.50%~~6.25% at June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and 7.75% December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. On October 9, 2014, as part of the Heritage Bank Loan Agreement, Heritage Bank was granted a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of Telkonet common stock. The warrant has an exercise price of $0.20 and expires October 9, 2021. On ~~February 13,~~November 6, 2019, the ~~tenth~~eleventh amendment to the Credit Facility was executed ~~extending~~to extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility to September 30, ~~2020,~~2021, unless earlier accelerated under the terms of the Heritage Bank Loan ~~Agreement.~~Agreement, and eliminate the maximum EBITDA loss covenant. The eleventh amendment was effective as of September 30, 2019.

The Heritage Bank Loan Agreement ~~also~~ contains ~~financial~~ covenants that place restrictions on, among other things, the incurrence of debt, granting of liens and sale of assets. The Heritage Bank Loan Agreement also contains financial ~~covenants, including a maximum~~covenants. As discussed above, the EBITDA loss covenant ~~measured quarterly,~~was eliminated in the eleventh amendment to the Credit Facility. The sole remaining financial covenants are a minimum asset coverage ratio ~~measured monthly,~~ and a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $2 ~~million. During~~million, both of which are measured at the year ended December 31, 2018 and the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company and Heritage Bank entered into several amendments to the Credit Facility to adjust these covenant levels. As long as the Company maintains the minimum unrestricted cash balanceend of ~~$2 million, a violation of the minimum EBITDA level will not trigger an event of default.~~each month. A violation of ~~any~~either of these covenants could result in an event of default under the Heritage Bank Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of such an event of default or certain other customary events of defaults, payment of any outstanding amounts under the Credit Facility may be accelerated and Heritage Bank’s commitment to extend credit under the Heritage Bank Loan Agreement may be terminated. The Heritage Bank Loan Agreement contains other representations and warranties, covenants, and other provisions customary to transactions of this nature.

The outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was ~~$864,125~~$0 and ~~$121,474~~$624,347 at June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019, respectively, and the remaining available borrowing capacity was approximately ~~$1,056,000~~$664,000 and ~~$499,000,~~$424,000, respectively. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
Paycheck Protection Program
On April 21, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note, dated as of April 17, 2020 (“the PPP Loan”), with Heritage Bank of Commerce under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) administered by the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and authorized by the Keeping American Workers Employed and Paid Act, which is part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, enacted on March 27, 2020. The principal amount of the PPP Loan is $913,063, bears interest of 1.0% per annum and was disbursed on April 21, 2020.
The PPP Loan has a maturity date of April 21, 2022. No payments of principal or interest are required during the first six months, but interest accrues during this period. The PPP Flexibility Act (discussed below) extended the six-month loan payment deferral period. After the deferral period, monthly payments of principal and interest are required and continue until maturity with respect to any portion of the PPP Loan not forgiven, as discussed below. The PPP Loan may be prepaid, in full or in part, at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The note contains events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type.
Under the terms of the PPP, the Company can apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP Loan. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations and ongoing rulemaking by the SBA, based on the use of loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent, utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. Prior to the enactment of the PPP Flexibility Act, at least 75% of such forgiven amounts must be used for eligible payroll costs. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the Company terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period following the date the proceeds are disbursed, and if it is not eligible to claim any of the safe harbors or exemptions.
On June 5, 2020, the PPP Flexibility Act of 2020 was signed into law. It amended the CARES Act and eased rules on how and when recipients can use loans and still be eligible for forgiveness. The PPP Flexibility Act changed many aspects of the PPP, including: (1) extending the covered period for loan forgiveness purposes from eight weeks to the earlier of 24 weeks from the loan origination date or December 31, 2020; (2) lowering the amount required to be spent on payroll costs from 75% to 60% of the loan principal; (3) extending the loan maturity period from two years to five years for PPP loans made on or after June 5, 2020; and (4) revising the loan payment deferral period until the date when the amount of loan forgiveness is determined and remitted to the lender. For PPP recipients who do not apply for forgiveness, the loan payment deferral period expires ten months after the applicable forgiveness period ends. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.
The outstanding balance was $913,063 at June 30, 2020.

Cash Flow Analysis

Cash used in operations was ~~$2,035,842~~$488,107 and ~~$2,179,004~~$2,035,842, during the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our primary capital needs included costs incurred to increase energy management sales, inventory procurement and managing current liabilities. The working capital changes during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were primarily a result of an approximate $1,410,000 decrease in accounts receivable, a $300,000 decrease in inventories, a $144,000 decrease in contract assets, partially offset by a $535,000 decrease in accounts payable, a $109,000 decrease in contract liabilities, a $134,000 increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and a $92,000 increase in the reserve for inventory obsolescence. The working capital changes during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were primarily related to an approximate ~~$1,393,000~~$1,374,000 increase in accounts receivable, $269,000 decrease in contract liabilities, $200,000 increase in contract assets, partially offset by a $647,000 increase in accounts payable, a $239,000 increase in accrued liabilities, and a $136,000 decrease in prepaid and other current assets. The working capital changes during the six months ended June 30, 2018 were primarily related to an approximate $373,000 increase in accounts receivable, a $453,000 increase in prepaid expense and other current assets, partially offset by a $277,000 decrease in inventory, a $124,000 decrease in customer deposits, a $512,000 decrease in deferred revenues and an $18,000 decrease in accounts payable. Accounts receivable ~~fluctuates~~balances fluctuate based on the negotiated billing terms with customers and collections. We purchase inventory based on forecasts and orders, and when those forecasts and orders change, the amount of inventory may also fluctuate.

We are working to manage our current liabilities while we continue to make changes in operations to improve our cash flow and liquidity position.

Management expects that global economic conditions, in particular the impacts and uncertainties of the COVID-19 outbreak and the decreasing price of energy, ~~the adverse impact of tariffs and~~along with competition will continue to present a challenging operating environment through ~~2019;~~2020; therefore working capital management will continue to be a high priority for ~~2019.~~2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

Acquisition or Disposition of Property and Equipment

The Company does not anticipate significant purchases of property or equipment during the next twelve months. The Waukesha, Wisconsin lease may require additional furniture, shelving, computer equipment and peripherals to be used in the Company’s day-to-day operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer each evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2020. Based on these evaluations, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 were not effective as of June 30, 2020 as a result of the material weaknesses discussed below.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements of the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2018~~2019 based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on our evaluation and the material weaknesses described below, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2018~~2019 based on the COSO framework criteria.

~~Management~~As previously disclosed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, our management did not properly design or maintain effective controls over the control environment and monitoring components of COSO. We did not have a sufficient complement of accounting and financial personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge to address technical accounting and financial reporting matters in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the Company’s overall financial reporting requirements. We also lack sufficient information technology resources to address our IT general control environment requirements. The failures within the control environment and monitoring components contributed to the following control activity level material weaknesses:

· Revenues – We did not properly design or maintain effective controls over the recording of revenue recognition for contracts whose performance obligations are fulfilled over time.

· Financial Statement Close and Reporting – We did not properly design or maintain effective controls over the period end financial close and reporting process. Specifically, we lacked control over the review of account reconciliations, journal entries, identification of related party transactions, and reporting of our financial results and disclosures.
35
· Information Technology – We did not properly design or maintain effective controls to prevent unauthorized access to certain systems, programs and data, and provide for periodic review and monitoring of access and changes in programs, including review of security logs and analysis of segregation of duties conflicts.

· Segregation of Duties – We did not maintain adequate segregation of duties within the Company’s business processes, financial applications, and IT systems. Specifically, we did not have appropriate controls in place to adequately assess the segregation of job responsibilities and system user access for initiating, authorizing, and recording transactions.
27

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances resulting in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement to our financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, we have determined that these control deficiencies as described above constitute material weaknesses.

We are reviewing actions to remediate the identified material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal controls over financial reporting, our senior management may determine to take additional measures to address deficiencies or modify the remediation efforts.
