Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in accordance with the disclosure requirements for the quarterly report on Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2015.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. The Company’s actual results could differ from these estimates.
Restricted Cash
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, as required by the Company’s five-year term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Term Loan”)with Medley Capital Corporation (“Medley”), the Company maintained a minimum restricted cash balance of $3.0 million to collateralize theMedley Term Loan. Changes in the restricted cash balance are reflected as a financing activity in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount when its products are shipped to customers or when specific milestone billing requirements are completed. The Company’s accounts receivable balance is recorded net of allowances for amounts not expected to be collected from customers. This allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on historical collection experience, age of receivables and known collectability issues. The Company writes off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent, based on age or customer circumstances, that such amounts will not be collected. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis. Recovery of bad debt amounts previously written off is recorded as a reduction of bad debt expense in the period the payment is collected. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for its accounts receivable and does not regularly charge interest on past due amounts. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s accounts receivable were reflected net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $447,000 and $408,000, respectively.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $5.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of eligible accounts receivable were pledged as collateral for the three-year asset based revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL”) entered into on April 25, 2014 with FCC, LLC d/b/a First Capital (“First Capital”).
Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenue when its products are shipped and title passes to customers. When sales of products are subject to certain customer acceptance terms, revenue from such sales is recognized once those terms have been met. The Company also provides its customers with limited rights of return for non-conforming shipments or product warranty claims.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014‑09”). ASU 2014-09 seeks to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014‑09 initially was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. However, at its July 9, 2015 meeting, the FASB agreed to defer by one year the mandatory effective date of this standard, but will also provide the option to adopt it as of the original effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014‑09, but the standard is not expected to have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Product Warranties
The Company generally provides a five-year limited warranty covering defective materials and workmanship of its products. Such warranty may require the Company to repair, replace or reimburse the purchaser for the purchase price of the product. The estimated costs related to warranties are accrued at the time products are sold based on various factors, including the Company’s stated warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims and the cost to repair or replace its products under warranty. The warranty provision is included in accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the warranty provision for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were as follows:
Warranty provision as of December 31, 2014 | | $ | 4,789,470 | |
Additions to provision | | | 925,361 | |
Less warranty costs | | | (1,743,943 | ) |
| | | | |
Warranty provision as of June 30, 2015 | | $ | 3,970,888 | |
Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
| • | Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date. |
| • | Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| • | Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due under lines of credit and other short term borrowings, accrued expenses and the note payable are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments and/or variable, market driven interest rates.
The liabilities under derivative contracts, which represent warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), were initially recorded at fair value and subsequently reflected at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the warrant issued to The Home Depot, Inc. (the “THD Warrant”) in January 2011, is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method and will be adjusted at each reporting date until the underlying shares have been earned for each year. Such adjustments will be recorded as a reduction in the related revenue (sales incentive) from The Home Depot, Inc. ("The Home Depot"). Once a portion of the THD Warrant vests it is recorded at its fair value at the end of each subsequent reporting period.
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or stockholders’ deficit.
NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As shown in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced significant net losses as well as negative cash flows from operations since its inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $816.4 million and stockholders’ deficit of $512.3 million as of June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $347,000 and an additional $3.0 million in restricted cash subject to a cash collateral dominion agreement pursuant to the Medley Term Loan. The Company’s cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory, payment of salaries, employee benefits and other operating costs.
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from First Capital under the FCC ABL, from Medley under the Medley Term Loan and from other previous lenders, as well as sales of Common Stock and Preferred Stock (as defined below) to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus Capital”), including Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”), LSGC Holdings LLC (“LSGC Holdings”), LSGC Holdings II LLC (“Holdings II”), LSGC Holdings III LLC (“Holdings III”) and PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA Holdings” and collectively with Pegasus Capital, Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings, Holdings II, Holdings III and their affiliates, “Pegasus”). Pegasus is the Company’s controlling stockholder.
The Company obtained the five-year, $30.5 million Medley Term Loan from Medley on February 19, 2014, pursuant to a Term Loan Agreement (as amended from time to time the “Medley Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the Medley Loan Agreement, the Company is required to achieve a minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio for the preceding 12-month period and to maintain certain minimum EBITDA levels. In connection with the Medley Term Loan, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to each of Medley and Medley Opportunity Fund II LP (the “Medley Warrants”).
The Company also obtained a three-year revolving credit facility with a maximum line amount of $22.5 million from ACF Finco I LP (as assignee of First Capital) on April 25, 2014, pursuant to the terms of a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL Agreement”). As of June 30, 2015, the Company had $11.2 million in borrowings outstanding under the FCC ABL Agreement and additional borrowing capacity of $2.0 million. The maximum borrowing capacity under the FCC ABL Agreement is based on a formula of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. TheFCC ABL Agreement also requires the Company to achieve a minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio for the preceding 12-month period.
On January 30, 2015, the Company issued 11,525 units of its Series J securities (“Series J Securities”), at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $11.5 million. Each Series J Security consists of (i) one share of Series J Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 2,650 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “Series J Warrants”). The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into between the Company and Holdings III.
Commencing on September 25, 2015, RW LSG Holdings LLC (“Riverwood”) and Pegasus will have the right to cause the Company to redeem their shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”) and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series I Preferred Stock”), respectively. If either Riverwood or Pegasus elects to cause the Company to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, all other holders of the applicable series will similarly have the right to request the redemption of their shares of Preferred Stock. In addition, commencing 10 business days after September 25, 2015, Portman Limited (“Portman”) and affiliates of Zouk Holdings Limited acting together, have a contractual right to require the Company to redeem their respective shares of Series H Preferred Stock. The Company is also required to redeem the outstanding shares of its Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series J Preferred Stock” and collectively with Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or any other security that ranks junior to the Series J Preferred Stock and (b) on November 14, 2019, at the election of the holders of Series J Preferred Stock (a “Special Redemption”). Holders of Preferred Stock would also have the right to require the Company to redeem such shares upon the uncured material breach of the Company’s obligations under its outstanding indebtedness or the uncured material breach of the terms of the certificates of designation governing the Preferred Stock. As of June 30, 2015, in the event the Company was required to redeem all of its outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Company’s maximum payment obligation would have been $492.0 million. The Company would be required to repay its outstanding obligations under the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL prior to any redemption of shares of Preferred Stock. As of June 30, 2015, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under these loan facilities was $39.7 million.
Any redemption of the Preferred Stock would be limited to funds legally available therefor under Delaware law. The certificates of designation governing the Preferred Stock provide that if there is not a sufficient amount of cash or surplus available to pay for a redemption of Preferred Stock, then the redemption must be paid out of the remaining assets of the Company. In addition, the certificates of designation governing Preferred Stock provide that the Company is not permitted or required to redeem any shares of Preferred Stock for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under the Company’s credit facilities.
As of June 30, 2015, based solely on a review of the Company’s balance sheet, the Company did not have legally available funds under Delaware law to satisfy a redemption of its Preferred Stock. In addition, based solely on the Company’s projected balance sheet as of September 25, 2015, the Company does not believe that it will have legally available funds on or before September 25, 2015 to satisfy any such redemption.
The certificate of designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock also provides that upon the occurrence of a “control event,” the Company must take any and all actions required and permitted to fix the size of its board of directors to a size that would permit Riverwood (as the primary investor of the Series H Preferred Stock) to appoint a majority of the directors to the board until the Company satisfies or otherwise cures the obligations giving rise to the control event. A control event occurs if, among other things, Riverwood exercises its optional redemption right under the certificate of designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock and the Company is unable to redeem Riverwood’s Preferred Stock. If Riverwood were to exercise its optional redemption right and a control event were to occur, Riverwood could take control of the board of directors. In addition, if the Company does not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock in connection with a Special Redemption of the Series J Preferred Stock, the Company will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders.
As discussed further in Note 14, one of the Company’s stockholders, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), filed a lawsuit against the Company and certain other defendants seeking, among other things, rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company. On August 28, 2014, the court presiding over the lawsuit granted Geveran’s motion for partial summary judgment with respect to its cause of action for violation of the Florida securities laws. As of June 30, 2015, the order relating to the judgment had not been entered. Although the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, it believes the court’s summary judgment award in favor of Geveran is in error and that it has strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. In the event that the Company is not successful on appeal, it could be liable for Geveran’s $25.0 million investment, as well as interest, attorneys’ fees and court costs. After the order is entered, the Company plans to appeal and, together with the other defendants, post a bond, which would allow the Company to obtain an automatic stay of enforcement throughout the appeal process. The summary judgment order and the bond required to stay enforcement of the judgment could have an adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity and its ability to raise capital in the future.
The Company continues to face challenges in its efforts to achieve positive cash flows from operations and profitability. The Company’s ability to continue to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon establishing profitable operations, which may be supplemented by any additional funds raised through public or private financing or increased borrowing capacity.
The Company’s supply agreement with The Home Depot, the term of which continues until July 23, 2016, does not require The Home Depot to purchase any minimum amount of products from the Company. Moreover, The Home Depot performs periodic product line reviews to assess its product offerings, which can lead to pricing pressures and/or a reallocation of its business to other suppliers. In June 2015, The Home Depot performed its most recent product line review which covered its entire private label LED lighting product offering. Although the Company has not been advised of the results of this product line review, such review could result in a material loss of revenue from sales to The Home Depot.
As a result of the Company’s historical and continuing losses, the Company believes it will likely need to raise additional capital to fund its operations. There can be no assurance that sources of additional capital will be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to the Company, if at all. If the Company is not able to raise such additional capital, the Company may need to restructure or refinance its existing obligations, which restructuring or refinancing would require the consent and cooperation of the Company’s creditors and certain stockholders. In such event, there can be no assurance that such restructuring or refinancing could be accomplished on terms that are acceptable to the Company, if at all.
NOTE 4. DETAIL OF CERTAIN BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNTS
Inventories
Inventories consisted primarily of finished goods as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, inventories were stated net of inventory write downs of $5.1 million and $7.9 million, respectively. The Company considered a number of factors in estimating the required inventory write downs, including (i) the focus of the business on the next generation of the Company’s products, which utilize lower cost technologies, (ii) the strategic focus on core products to meet the demands of key customers and (iii) the expected demand for the Company’s current generation of products, which is approaching the end of its lifecycle upon the introduction of the next generation of products.

The Company capitalizes its costs related to the issuance of long-term debt and amortizes these costs using the effective interest rate method over the life of the loan. Amortization of debt issuance costs and the accelerated write-off of debt issuance costs in connection with refinancing activities are recorded as a component of interest expense. As of June 30, 2015, the current portion of the debt issuance costs was $1.6 million and was included in other current assets. In connection with the FCC ABL and the Medley Term Loan, $6.0 million of debt issuance costs were capitalized, including $2.8 million related to the fair value of the guaranty of the Company’s obligations under the Medley Loan Agreement in favor of Medley (the “Pegasus Guaranty”) provided by Pegasus Capital Partners IV, L.P. and Pegasus Capital Partners V, L.P.

NOTE 10: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
In 2012, the Company determined that two classes of Common Stock had been established for financial reporting purposes only, with Common Stock attributable to controlling stockholders representing shares beneficially owned and controlled by Pegasus and the Common Stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders representing the minority interest stockholders. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company computed net loss per share of noncontrolling stockholders and controlling stockholders of Common Stock using the two-class method. Net loss from operations is initially allocated based on the underlying common shares held by controlling and noncontrolling stockholders. The allocation of the net losses attributable to the Common Stock attributable to controlling stockholders is then reduced by the amount of the deemed dividend related to the warrants issued to the Pegasus Guarantors, while the allocation of net losses attributable to the Common Stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders is increased by the amount of the deemed dividend related to the warrants issued to the Pegasus Guarantors
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Common Stock:
| | For the Three Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
| | Controlling Stockholders | | | Noncontrolling Stockholders | | | Controlling Stockholders | | | Noncontrolling Stockholders | |

Basic and diluted net loss per common share | | $ | (0.08 | ) | | $ | (0.08 | ) | | $ | (0.32 | ) | | $ | (0.34 | ) |
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The Series J Warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock, and are included in the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as there are no conditions that must be satisfied before such warrant may be exercised into the shares of Common Stock underlying such warrants. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share except the number of shares is increased to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options, unvested restricted stock and contingently issuable shares using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred shares using the if-converted method, unless the effect of such increases would be anti-dilutive. The Company had 265.9 million and 188.7 million common stock equivalents for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 260.2 million and 191.0 million common stock equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which were not included in the diluted net loss per common share as the common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive, as a result of being in a net loss position.
NOTE 11: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Pegasus Capital is an affiliate of Pegasus IV and LSGC Holdings, which are the Company’s largest stockholders and beneficially owned approximately 88.6% of the Common Stock as of June 30, 2015.
On January 30, 2015, the Company issued an additional 11,525 units of Series J Securities, at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $11.5 million. The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a subscription agreement between the Company and Holdings III, an affiliate of Pegasus Capital.
NOTE 12. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE
The following table summarizes the Company’s restructuring expense and related charges for the periods indicated:
| | For the Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Broad based reduction of facilities and personnel (1) | | $ | 297,770 | | | $ | 91,568 | |
Organization Optimization Initiative (2) | | | - | | | | 114,277 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 297,770 | | | $ | 205,845 | |
| (1) | These charges relate to a significant cost reduction plan initiated during the fourth quarter of 2013 that includes moving the majority of the Company’s manufacturing to its contract manufacturers in Asia, related workforce reductions in Satellite Beach, Florida and cost reductions in our foreign subsidiaries. The Company estimates it will incur $200,000 in additional expenses throughout this cost reduction plan, primarily related to additional headcount reductions. These additional costs are expected to be incurred during 2015. |
| (2) | In September 2011, the Company began implementing a restructuring plan designed to further increase efficiencies across the organization and lower the overall cost structure. In 2012, the Company extended the restructuring plan to further increase efficiencies across the organization and lower its overall cost structure. The plan included a significant reduction in full time headcount and the closing of the Company’s offices in the United Kingdom and Australia. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, these expenses related to the final liquidation of the Australian entity. |
As of June 30, 2015, the accrued liability associated with the restructuring and other related charges consisted of the following:
| | Workforce | | | Excess | | | Other | | | | | |
| | Reduction | | | Facilities | | | Exit Costs | | | Total | |
Accrued liability as of December 31, 2014 | | $ | 959,240 | | | $ | 353,269 | | | $ | 138,840 | | | $ | 1,451,349 | |
Charges | | | 297,770 | | | | - | | | | - | | | | 297,770 | |
Payments | | | (801,012 | ) | | | (77,207 | ) | | | (1,013 | ) | | | (879,232 | ) |

The remaining accrual of $870,000 as of June 30, 2015 is expected to be paid during the year ending December 31, 2015.
The restructuring and other related charges are included in the line item restructuring expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
NOTE 13. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, revenue derived from sales to The Home Depot represented 93% and 72%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, revenue derived from sales to The Home Depot represented 87% and 75%, respectively, of total revenue.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, The Home Depot accounts receivable balance represented 79% and 66%, respectively, of the Company’s total accounts receivable, net of allowances.
NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to the possibility of loss contingencies arising in its business. Such contingencies are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies.” In determining loss contingencies, the Company considers the possibility of a loss and the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recorded when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and when the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is routinely a party to various pending and threatened legal claims and proceedings. While the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, based on information currently available and advice of counsel, and taking into account available insurance coverage, except as noted below, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any of these claims will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. However, the results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, and in the event of unexpected future developments the ultimate resolution of one or more of these matters could be unfavorable. Should the Company fail to prevail in any of these legal matters or should several of these legal matters be resolved against the Company in the same reporting period, the consolidated financial position or operating results could be materially adversely affected. Regardless of the outcome, any litigation may require the Company to incur significant expenses and may result in significant diversion of management’s attention. Further, during its ordinary course of business, the Company enters into obligations to defend, indemnify and/or hold harmless various customers, officers, directors, employees, and other third parties. These contractual obligations could give rise to additional litigation costs and involvement in court proceedings.
Geveran Investments Limited v. Lighting Science Group Corporation, et al. (the “Geveran Case”)
On June 22, 2012, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), one of the Company’s stockholders, filed a lawsuit against the Company and several other defendants in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. On October 30, 2012, the court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida. The Geveran Case names the Company as a defendant, as well as Pegasus Capital and nine other entities affiliated with Pegasus Capital; Richard Weinberg, our former Director and former interim Chief Executive Officer and a former partner of Pegasus Capital; Gregory Kaiser, a former Chief Financial Officer; J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC (“J.P. Morgan”); and two employees of J.P. Morgan. Geveran seeks rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company, as well as recovery of interest, attorneys’ fees and court costs, jointly and severally against the Company, Pegasus Capital, Mr. Weinberg, Mr. Kaiser, J.P. Morgan and the two J.P. Morgan employees, for alleged violations of Florida securities laws. Geveran alternatively seeks unspecified money damages, as well as recovery of court costs, for alleged common law negligent misrepresentation against these same defendants. In August 2014, the court granted Geveran’s motion to amend their first amended complaint to assert a claim for punitive damages against the defendants.
On August 28, 2014, the court issued an Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment under its First Cause of Action for Violation of the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act (the “August 28 Order”). It is anticipated that the August 28 Order will be entered as a judgment of Court in August or September 2015. Once the August 28 Order is entered, the Company intends to appeal it. Together with the other defendants, the Company will have 30 days to post a bond during which time enforcement of the judgment would be stayed. The Company plans to have a bond posted to secure the judgment, which should result in the automatic stay of enforcement through the appeal process.
While the outcome of any appeal is inherently difficult to predict, the Company believes that the trial court’s grant of summary judgment to plaintiff was in error. In the event that the summary judgment is overturned on appeal, the Company believes it has strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. The Company denies liability in connection with this matter and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against the claims asserted by Geveran. Nonetheless, the amount of possible loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The outcome, if unfavorable, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position. The Company believes that, subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant policies (including retention and policy limits), directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage will be available to cover the substantial majority of its legal fees and costs in this matter. However, given the unspecified nature of Geveran’s maximum damage claims, insurance coverage may not be available for, or such coverage may not be sufficient to fully pay, a judgment or settlement in favor of Geveran.Based upon the terms of an indemnification agreement described below, the Company has also paid, and is likely to pay in the in the future, reasonable legal expenses incurred by J.P. Morgan and its affiliates in this lawsuit in connection with the engagement of J.P. Morgan as placement agent for the private placement with Geveran. Such payments are not covered by the Company’s insurance policies. The engagement letter executed with J.P. Morgan provides that the Company will indemnify J.P. Morgan and its affiliates from liabilities relating to J.P. Morgan’s activities as placement agent, unless such activities are finally judicially determined to have resulted from J.P. Morgan’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
GE Lighting Solutions v. Lighting Science Group Corporation, et al.
The Company is also a defendant in an action brought by GE Lighting Solutions LLC (“GE Lighting”) in Federal District Court for the Northern District of Ohio in or about January 2013. GE Lighting asserts a claim of infringement by the Company, as well as five other LED manufacturers, of U.S Patent No. 6,787,999, entitledLED-Based ModularLamp, and U.S. Patent No. 6,799,864, entitledHigh Power LED Power Pack for Spot Module Illumination, and seeks monetary damages and an injunction. The Company denies liability in connection with this matter,asserts non-infringement defenses, and also asserts that the patents include terms that are indefinite and thus are invalid. On August 5, 2015, theFederal District Courtgranted the Company’s summary judgment motion invalidating the two GE patents at issue for indefiniteness, and dismissing GE’s patent infringement claims against the Company and the other defendants. GE will have 30 days from the date the judgment is entered in which to file a notice of appeal. If such an appeal were filed, the appellate court could reverse the judgment and remand the case back to the Federal District Court for further proceedings.
Other
In addition, the Company may be a party to a variety of legal actions, such as employment and employment discrimination-related suits, employee benefit claims, breach of contract actions, tort claims, shareholder suits, including securities fraud, intellectual property related litigation, and a variety of legal actions relating to its business operations. In some cases, substantial punitive damages may be sought. The Company currently has insurance coverage for certain of these potential liabilities. Other potential liabilities may not be covered by insurance, insurers may dispute coverage or the amount of insurance may not be sufficient to cover the damages awarded. In addition, certain types of damages, such as punitive damages, may not be covered by insurance and insurance coverage for all or certain forms of liability may become unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the future.

Company Overview
We are an innovator and provider of light emitting diode (“LED”) lighting technology. We design, develop, manufacture and market advanced illumination products that use LEDs as their exclusive light source. Our product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) used in existing light fixtures as well as purpose-built LED-based luminaires (light fixtures). Our lamps and luminaires are used for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications. We have also developed LED lighting technology whose light and color are tuned to achieve specific biological effects. We believe our proprietary technology, unique designs and key relationships throughout the LED lighting supply chain position us favorably to capitalize on the expanding acceptance of LEDs as a lighting source.
Our strategic plan consists of creating strong digital lighting brands in the consumer, residential, commercial and industrial markets. We believe that developing innovative and differentiated brands will deliver strong financial returns and a more loyal user base that is less price sensitive. We intend to continue to implement a nimble and agile “go-to-market” business model and manufacturing and product development system to streamline the processes used to introduce new products. We also intend to continue focusing on developing breakthrough innovation and on becoming a market maker in targeted value-added, high-margin segments within the lighting market. Finally, we plan to reduce our cost structure, preserve cash flow and strengthen liquidity to enhance our financial position.
We have also focused on expanding and optimizing our global supply chain to meet forecasted demand for our products while addressing the inefficiencies that have compressed our gross margin and overall financial performance in prior periods such as costs incurred to expedite the production or delivery of component parts. We anticipate long-term gross margin improvement as we continue to execute on our initiatives. We completed one of our most critical initiatives in 2014 with the transition of the manufacturing of our high volume lamps from Mexico and Satellite Beach, Florida to our contract manufacturing partners in Asia, from which we source the majority of our components. We began this transition in the third quarter of 2013, and completed it during the first half of 2014. We anticipate these actions will result in improved gross margin, as well as a more optimized product supply in future periods.
We continue to focus on increasing our brand awareness and improving our product promotion through prominent displays at our retailers and by conducting high visibility national media promotions with our key customers. Specifically, we continue to work with major media outlets, grant interviews and work with key consumer influencers to gain greater visibility for our brand and our scientifically proven technology. In 2013 we were featured in Men’s Health magazine,Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic, Popular Science, Wall Street Journal online and ABC newswire. During 2014 we were featured on the Dr. OZ Show, The Rachael Ray Show, Live! With Kelly and Michael, Architectural SSL and other prominent national and local news affiliates. Additionally, in 2014, we were ranked in the Top 500 of Deloitte’s 2014 Technology Fast 500™ in North America for the third consecutive year.
Financial Results
The following table sets forth our revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | | Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | | | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Revenue | | $ | 23,270,363 | | | $ | 19,827,864 | | | $ | 42,641,908 | | | $ | 45,753,705 | |
Cost of goods sold | | | 19,853,828 | | | | 18,826,446 | | | | 36,295,125 | | | | 42,061,792 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Gross profit (loss) | | $ | 3,416,535 | | | $ | 1,001,418 | | | $ | 6,346,783 | | | $ | 3,691,913 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
GAAP gross profit (loss) percentage | | | 14.7 | % | | | 5.1 | % | | | 14.9 | % | | | 8.1 | % |
Our revenue is primarily derived from sales of our LED-based retrofit lamps and luminaires. Our revenue increased $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. This increase in revenue primarily resulted from a $7.4 million increase in sales to The Home Depot, Inc. (“The Home Depot”), which was offset by a $4.0 million decrease in sales to other customers. The increase in sales to The Home Depot during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was partially driven by our delivery of products during the period that were originally scheduled for delivery during the three months ended March 31, 2015, but were delayed due to port disruptions and harsh winter weather. Our revenue decreased $3.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. This decrease in revenue primarily resulted from a $6.0 million decrease in sales to customers other than The Home Depot, which was partially offset by a $2.9 million increase in sales to The Home Depot. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, our gross margin improvement was primarily attributed to our transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia, which was substantially complete as of June 30, 2014.
We continue to pursue new relationships with retailers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) to help increase our sales. In addition, we have significantly increased the roster of distributors and independent sales agents that sell our products and added experienced professionals to our direct sales force to increase the frequency and impact of our activities with key national accounts that are targets for potential adoption of LED lighting.
Our gross margins are principally driven by the mix and quantity of products we sell to The Home Depot and our other customers. Our financial results are dependent upon the operating costs associated with our supply chain, including materials, labor and freight, and the level of selling, distribution and administrative, research and development and other operating expense. We continuously seek to improve our existing products and bring new products to market. As a result, many of our products have short life cycles and, therefore, product life cycle planning is critical. New product introductions, if not properly coordinated with end-of life transitions, can lead to inventory write-downs and provisions for expected losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments. When these circumstances are present, we may also incur additional expense as we adjust our supply chain and product life-cycle planning.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Although our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to the assessment of our operating performance and trends. As part of our ongoing review of financial information related to our business, we regularly use non-GAAP measures, particularly non-GAAP adjusted gross margin and non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of revenue, as we believe they provide meaningful insight into our business and useful information with respect to the results of our operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, the comparable GAAP financial measures, and are intended to supplement our financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The adjusted presentation below is used by management to measure our business performance and provides useful information regarding the trend in gross margin percentage based on revenue from sales of our products to customers. Excluding the impact of the provisions for inventory write-offs, our non-GAAP gross margin was 16.1% and 16.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to 8.5% and 10.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Excluding non-cash expense for stock based compensation, restructuring expense and depreciation and amortization, total operating expense decreased by 38.2% and 40.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, while revenue increased/(decreased) 17.4% and (6.8%) compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Total non-GAAP adjusted operating expense represented 27.9% and 27.8% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to 53.1% and 43.4% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the decrease in non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of revenue was due to the decrease in operating expense, primarily driven by reductions in personnel-related expense, transportation and other selling costs.

During 2013 and the first half of 2014, we adapted our supply chain and logistics processes to improve our ability to provide more efficient service to our customers and focus our efforts on developing innovative products. We continued to make improvements in our forecasting and finished goods inventory management, continued the transition of our manufacturing processes to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia and continued to enhance our new product innovation process.
We believe that the enhancements to our business initiated in 2013 and continued throughout 2014 improved our management and manufacturing infrastructure, expanded our ability to source components and manufacture our products internationally and positioned us for organic growth. We believe these improvements will position us to capitalize on the innovative, science based and creative engineering talent at our Melbourne, Florida headquarters, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage. In addition to developing products targeted at mainstream retail and commercial lighting, we will look to expand our product offerings to compete across multiple industry verticals.
LED Lighting Industry Trends
There are a number of industry factors that affect our business and results of operations including, among others:
| ● | Rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting products. Our potential for growth is driven by the rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting within the general illumination market and our ability to affect this rate of adoption. Although LED lighting is relatively new and faces significant challenges before achieving widespread adoption, it has grown in recent years. Innovations and advancements in LED lighting technology that improve product performance and reduce product cost continue to enhance the value proposition of LED lighting for general illumination and expand its potential commercial applications. |
| ● | External legislation and subsidy programs concerning energy efficiency. The United States and many countries in the European Union and elsewhere, among others, have already instituted, or have announced plans to institute, government regulations and programs designed to encourage or mandate increased energy efficiency in lighting. These actions include in certain cases banning the sale after specified dates of certain forms of incandescent lighting, which is advancing the adoption of more energy efficient lighting solutions such as LEDs. In addition, the growing demand for electricity is increasingly driving utilities and governmental agencies to provide financial incentives such as rebates for energy efficient lighting technologies in an effort to mitigate the need for investments in new electrical generation capacity.While this trend is generally positive for us, from time to time there have been political efforts in the United States to change or limit the effectiveness of these regulations. |
| ● | Intellectual property. LED market participants rely on patented and non-patented proprietary information relating to product development, manufacturing capabilities and other core competencies of their business. Protection and licensing of intellectual property is critical. Therefore, LED lighting industry participants often take steps such as additional patent applications, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements as well as other security measures. To enforce or protect intellectual property rights, market participants commonly commence or threaten litigation. |
| ● | Intense and constantly evolving competitive environment.Competition in the LED lighting market is intense. Many companies have made significant investments in LED lighting development and production equipment. Traditional lighting companies and new entrants are investing in LED based lighting products as LED adoption has gained momentum. Product pricing pressures is significant and market participants often undertake pricing strategies to gain or protect market share, enhance sales of their previously manufactured products and open new applications to LED based lighting solutions. To remain competitive, market participants must continuously increase product performance and reduce costs. |
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and consolidated results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based upon historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.
A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes: (i) they require us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and (ii) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the financial statements as soon as they became known.
We believe that our critical accounting policies relate to our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 contains a discussion of these critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2014. See also Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as set forth herein.

Revenue
Revenue increased $3.4 million, or 17.4%, to $23.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $19.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in revenue was primarily a result of a $7.4 million increase in sales to The Home Depot, partially offset by a $4.0 million decrease in sales to multiple other customers for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in sales to The Home Depot during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was partially driven by our delivery of products during the period that were originally scheduled for delivery during the three months ended March 31, 2015, but were delayed due to port disruptions and harsh winter weather.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold increased $1.0 million, or 5.5%, to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $18.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily due to the increase in revenue. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to 85.3% (or a gross margin percentage of 14.7%) as compared to 94.9% (or a gross margin percentage of 5.1%) for the three months ended June 30, 2014.The increase in the gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014was due primarily to the impact of our transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia.
Selling, Distribution andAdministrative
Selling, distribution and administrative expense decreased $3.1 million, or 30.9%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $10.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 29.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from 50.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in selling, distribution and administrative expense consisted of a $1.6 million decrease in personnel-related expense due to the workforce reductions in 2014 and 2015, an $800,000 decrease in fees paid to outside consultants and agents, a $577,000 decrease in facilities related expenses due to our move to a new location, a $267,000 decrease in freight and logistics, a decrease of $224,000 due to miscellaneous cost cutting measures, and a $163,000 decrease in personnel costs due to the winding down of our operations in Mexico, India and the Netherlands partially offset by a $522,000 increase in professional fees.
Research and Development
Research and development expense decreased $482,000, or 31.4%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 4.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from 7.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in research and development expense was primarily due to a $427,000 decrease in personnel related expense driven by the workforce reductions in 2014 and 2015.
Restructuring
Restructuring expense was $214,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Restructuring expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of severance and termination benefits. Restructuring expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $1,000related to the winding down of our Indian subsidiary.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $512,000, or 51.2%, to $488,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily a result of the disposal or impairment of manufacturing equipment and tools and molds during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to our restructuring efforts, which included a broad based reduction of facilities and personnel, resulting in a smaller depreciable base for the current period.
Interest Expense, Including Related Party
Interest expense, including related party interest, decreased $412,000, or 19.2%, to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the impact of the Company’s five-year term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Term Loan”)with Medley Capital Corporation (“Medley”). Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of $1.2 million of interest expense and fees related to the Medley Term Loan, $138,000 of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the Pegasus Guaranty (as defined below) and $338,000 of interest expense and fees related to thethree year asset based revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL”) entered into on April 25, 2014 with ACF Finco I LP (as assignee of First Capital) Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $1.9 million of interest expense and fees related to the Medley Term Loan, $138,000 of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the Pegasus Guaranty, $130,000 of interest expense and fees related to the FCC ABL.
Increasein Fair Value of Liabilities under Derivative Contracts
On February 19, 2014, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Medley Loan Agreement, we issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) to each of Medley and Medley Opportunity Fund II LP (the “Medley Warrants”). The Medley Warrants were accounted for as liabilities and their fair value was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. Pegasus Capital Partners IV, L.P. and Pegasus Capital Partners V, L.P. (collectively, the “Pegasus Guarantors”) have agreed to provide a guaranty of our obligations under the Medley Loan Agreement in favor of Medley (the “Pegasus Guaranty”). As consideration for the Pegasus Guaranty, on February 19, 2014, we issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to each of the Pegasus Guarantors (the “Pegasus Guaranty Warrants”). The Pegasus Guaranty Warrants were accounted for as liabilities and their fair value was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Medley Warrants and the Pegasus Guaranty Warrants decreased by $531,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and decreased by $428,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This change in fair value is impacted by a number of factors, including changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.
On September 11, 2013, we issued shares of our Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series J Preferred Stock”) to LSGC Holdings II LLC (“Holdings II”) and certain other purchasers and issued a warrant to Holdings II (the “Pegasus Warrant”). The Pegasus Warrant was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. On May 25, 2012, we issued shares of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) to RW LSG Holdings LLC, an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (collectively with their affiliates, “Riverwood”), and certain other purchasers and issued warrants to Riverwood (the “Riverwood Warrant”). The Riverwood Warrant was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Pegasus Warrant and the Riverwood Warrant decreased by $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and decreased by $562,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. These changes in fair value are impacted by a number of factors, including the change of the strike price of the Riverwood Warrant and the Pegasus Warrant due to the issuance of the Series J Preferred Stock and Series J Warrants, changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.
Between January 3, 2014 and March 7, 2014, we issued an aggregate of 17,475 units of our securities (the “Series J Securities”) with each Series J Security consisting of (i) one share of our Series J Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 2,650 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “Series J Warrants”). The Series J Warrants issued as part of the Series J Securities were accounted for as liabilities through April 14, 2014, the effective date of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock (the “Charter Amendment”), at which point the Series J Warrants were deemed equity instruments. While the Series J Warrants were accounted for as a liability their fair value was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. The change in fair value of the Series J Warrants was $994,000 for the period from April 1, 2014 to April 14, 2014, which was included in the (increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Other(Expense)Income, Net
Other (expense) income, net decreased $122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to an expense of $77,000 compared to income of $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of a $77,000 foreign exchange loss. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of a $38,000 foreign exchange gain and $7,000 of miscellaneous income.

Research and development expense decreased $844,000, or 27.4%, to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 5.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from 6.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in research and development expense was primarily due to a $574,000 decrease in personnel related expense due to the workforce reductions in 2014 and 2015, a $132,000 decrease in fees paid to outside consultants and a decrease of $140,000 due to miscellaneous cost cutting measures.
Restructuring Expense
Restructuring expense increased $92,000 to $298,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $206,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Restructuring expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of severance and termination benefits related to additional headcount reductions in the United States. Restructuring expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $182,000 in severance and termination benefits related to additional headcount reductions in the United States and a net charge of $114,000 related to the final liquidation of our Australian subsidiary, partially offset by a reduction in estimated costs related to the winding down of our Indian subsidiary.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1.1 million, or 52.1%, to $994,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 2.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from 4.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily a result of the disposal or impairment of manufacturing equipment and tools and molds during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to our restructuring efforts, which included a broad based reduction of facilities and personnel, resulting in a smaller depreciable base for the current period.
Interest Expense, Including Related Party
Interest expense, including related party interest, decreased $155,000, or 4.4%, to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the impact of theMedley Term Loan and the FCC ABL replacing our previous credit facilities with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (the “Wells Fargo ABL”) and the Ares Capital Corporation (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”). Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of $2.5 million of interest expense and fees related to the Medley Term Loan, $277,000 non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the Pegasus Guaranty and $563,000 of interest expense and fees related to theFCC ABL. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $2.5 million of interest expense and fees related to the Medley Term Loan, $200,000 of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the Pegasus Guaranty, $264,000 of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL, $426,000 of interest expense related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility and $130,000 of interest expense and fees related to theFCC ABL.
(Increase) Decrease in Fair Value of Liabilities under Derivative Contracts
The fair value of the outstanding Medley Warrants and the Pegasus Guaranty Warrants increased by $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and decreased by $271,000 for the period from February 19, 2014 (the date of issuance of the Medley and Pegasus Guaranty Warrants) to June 30, 2014. This change in fair value is impacted by a number of factors, including changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.
The fair value of the outstanding Pegasus Warrant and the Riverwood Warrants increased by $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and increased by $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. These changes in fair value are impacted by a number of factors, including the change of the strike price of the Riverwood Warrants due to the issuance of the Series J Preferred Stock and Series J Warrants, changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.
The change in fair value of the Series J Warrants was $25.1 million for the period from date of issuance of the Series J Warrants to April 14, 2014, which was included in the (increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This change in fair value is impacted primarily by the valuation of the Series J Warrants as of June 30, 2014 based on the Black Scholes valuation method as compared to fair value at date of issuance based on an allocation of the cash received for the Series J Securities between the Series J Preferred Stock and the Series J Warrants.
Other (Expense)Income, Net
Other (expense) income, net decreased $142,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 to net expense of $40,000 from net income of $102,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of a $166,000 foreign exchange loss and $25,000 in miscellaneous expense, partially offset by $152,000 of miscellaneous income. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of an $82,000 foreign exchange gain and $21,000 of miscellaneous income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We continue to experience significant net losses as well as negative cash flows from operations, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $816.4 million and stockholders’ deficit of $512.3 million as of June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $347,000 and an additional $3.0 million in restricted cash subject to a cash collateral dominion agreement pursuant to the Medley Term Loan. Our cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory and payment of salaries, benefits and other operating costs.
Our primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from various lenders and sales of Common Stock and Preferred Stock to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus Capital”), including Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”), LSGC Holdings LLC (“LSGC Holdings”), Holdings II, LSGC Holdings III LLC (“Holdings III”) and PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA Holdings” and collectively with Pegasus Capital, Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings, Holdings II, Holdings III and their affiliates, “Pegasus”). Pegasus is the Company’s controlling stockholder. While Pegasus has led many of our capital raises, the offerings of our Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series I Preferred Stock”) and Series J Preferred Stock also involved and/or were led by parties other than Pegasus.
The FCC ABL provides us with a maximum borrowing capacity of $22.5 million, which capacity is based on a formula of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. We are also required to achieve a minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio for the preceding 12-month period under theFCC ABL. As of June 30, 2015, we had $11.2 million outstanding under the FCC ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $2.0 million.
On January 30, 2015, we issued an additional 11,525 units of our Series J Securities, at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $11.5 million. These Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a subscription agreement with Holdings III.
Commencing on September 25, 2015, Riverwood and Pegasus will have the right to cause us to redeem their shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. If either Riverwood or Pegasus elects to cause us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, all other holders of the applicable series will similarly have the right to request the redemption of their shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. In addition, commencing 10 business days after September 25, 2015, Portman Limited and affiliates of Zouk Holdings Limited, acting together have a contractual right to require us to redeem their respective shares of Series H Preferred Stock. We are also required to redeem the outstanding shares of our Series J Preferred Stock (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or any other security that ranks junior to, or pari passu with, the Series J Preferred Stock and (b) on November 14, 2019, at the election of the holders of Series J Preferred Stock(a “Special Redemption”). Holders of our Preferred Stock would also have the right to require us to redeem such shares upon our uncured material breach of our obligations under our outstanding indebtedness or the uncured material breach of the terms of the certificates of designation governing the Preferred Stock.As of June 30, 2015, in the event we were required to redeem all of our outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, our maximum payment obligation would have been $492.0 million. We would be required to repay our outstanding obligations under the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL prior to any such redemption of shares of Series H, I or J Preferred Stock. As of June 30, 2015, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under these loan facilities was $39.7 million.
Any redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock would be limited to funds legally available therefor under Delaware law. The certificates of designation governing the Preferred Stock provide that if there is not a sufficient amount of cash or surplus available to pay for a redemption of Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock, then the redemption must be paid out of the remaining assets of the Company. In addition, the certificates of designation provide that we are not permitted or required to redeem any shares of Preferred Stock for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under our credit facilities.
As of June 30, 2015, based solely on a review of our balance sheet, we did not have legally available funds under Delaware law to satisfy a redemption of our Preferred Shares. In addition, based solely on our projected balance sheet as of September 25, 2015, we do not believe that we will have legally available funds on or before September 25, 2015 to satisfy any such redemption.
The certificate of designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock also provides that upon the occurrence of a “control event,” we must take any and all actions required and permitted to fix the size of our board of directors to a size that would permit Riverwood (as the primary investor of the Series H Preferred Stock) to appoint a majority of the directors to the board until we satisfy or otherwise cure the obligations giving rise to the control event. A control event occurs if, among other things, Riverwood exercises its optional redemption right under the certificate of designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock and we are unable to redeem Riverwood’s Preferred Stock. If Riverwood were to exercise its optional redemption right and a control event were to occur, Riverwood could take control of the board of directors. In addition, if we do not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock in connection with a Special Redemption of the Series J Preferred Stock, we will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders.
As discussed further in Note 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, one of our stockholders, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), filed a lawsuit against us and certain other defendants seeking, among other things, rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company. On August 28, 2014, the court presiding over the lawsuit granted Geveran’s motion for partial summary judgment with respect to its cause of action for violation of the Florida securities laws. As of June 30, 2015, the order relating to the judgment had not been entered. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, we believe the court’s summary judgment award in favor of Geveran is in error and that we have strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. In the event that we are not successful on appeal, we could be liable for Geveran’s $25.0 million investment, as well as interest, attorneys’ fees and court costs. After the order is entered, we plan to appeal and, together with the other defendants, post a bond, which would allow us to obtain an automatic stay of enforcement throughout the appeal process. The summary judgment order and the bond required to stay enforcement of the judgment could have an adverse effect on our liquidity and our ability to raise capital in the future.
We continue to face challenges in our efforts to achieve positive cash flows from operations and profitability.Our ability to continue to meet our obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon establishing profitable operations, which may be supplemented by any additional funds raised through public or private financing or increased borrowing capacity. As a result of our historical and continuing losses, we believe we will likely need to raise additional capital to fund our ongoing operations. There can be no assurance that sources of additional capital will be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all. If we are not able to raise such additional capital, we may need to restructure or refinance our existing obligations, which restructuring or refinancing would require the consent and cooperation of our creditors. In such event, there can be no assurance that such restructuring or refinancing could be accomplished on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all
Our supply agreement with The Home Depot, the term of which continues until July 23, 2016, does not require The Home Depot to purchase any minimum amount of products from us. Moreover, The Home Depot performs periodic product line reviews to assess its product offerings, which can lead to pricing pressures and/or a reallocation of its business to other suppliers. In June 2015, The Home Depot performed its most recent product line review which covered its entire private label LED lighting product offering. Although we have not been advised of the results of this product line review, such review could result in a material loss of revenue from sales to The Home Depot.
As a result of our historical and continuing losses, we believe we will likely need to raise additional capital to fund our ongoing operations. There can be no assurance that sources of additional capital will be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all. If we are not able to raise such additional capital, we may need to restructure or refinance our existing obligations, which restructuring or refinancing would require the consent and cooperation of our creditors and certain stockholders. In such event, there can be no assurance that such restructuring or refinancing could be accomplished on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who is also our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer at this time (the “Certifying Officer”)), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including theCertifying Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Certifying Officer, concluded that, as of June 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level because the remediation plans to address the material weaknesses identified in our Annual Reporton Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 have not been fully tested.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Subsequent to December 31, 2014, the following are among the key actions taken to our internal controls, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting:
| ● | We have reemphasized the importance of consistent application of the controls over the spreadsheet formulas used in the inventory valuation and enhanced the training of the personnel responsible for preparing and reviewing the spreadsheet; and |
| ● | We have implemented a reconciliation and confirmation process for our in-transit inventory on a monthly basis, as well as provided additional training of the personnel responsible for preparing and reviewing these transactions. |
Although these actions have not been fully tested, we believe we have remediated the material weaknesses described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Our leadership team, together with other senior executives and our board of directors, is committed to achieving and maintaining a strong control environment, high ethical standards and financial reporting integrity. This commitment has been and will continue to be communicated to, and reinforced with, our employees. Under the direction of our board of directors, management will continue to review and make changes to the overall design of our internal control environment, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures.
Other than the measures discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
