(“UEHC”), Ultralife Canada Holding Corp (“UCHC,” wholly owned by UEHC), Excell Battery Canada ULC (wholly owned by UCHC), 1336902 “1336902 1336902 c. Management's Use of Judgment and 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 year end and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Key areas affected by estimates include: (a) carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets; (b) reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, deferred tax assets, warranties, and bad debts; (c) valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; (d) various expense accruals; and (e) stock-based compensation. Our actual results could differ from these estimates. d. Reclassifications Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions are reclassified to conform to the current presentation. There were no December 31, 2021 2020. e . Cash Our cash balances may not not f. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We extend credit to our customers in the normal course of business.

Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined under the first‑in, first‑out (FIFO) method. We record provisions for excess, obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on changes in customer demand, technology developments or other economic factors. h. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives are as follows (in years): Buildings 10 – 40 Machinery and Equipment 5 – 10 Furniture and Fixtures 5 – 10 Computer Hardware and Software 3 – 5 Leasehold Improvements Lesser of useful life or lease term Betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs that extend the life of the assets are capitalized. Other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When disposed, the cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in operating income. i. Long-Lived Assets, Goodwill and Intangibles We assess our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not no Under the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price paid, or the total consideration transferred, to consummate the acquisition is allocated to the identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date with the residual amount recorded to goodwill. We do not may The annual impairment test for goodwill consists of a comparison of the estimated fair value for each reporting unit to which goodwill is assigned to the carrying value of the respective reporting unit. The annual impairment test for other indefinite-lived intangible assets consists of a comparison of the estimated fair value of each asset to the carrying value of the respective asset. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit or other indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its respective carrying value, the goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible asset is considered not j. Translation of Foreign Currency The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are translated from the functional currency into U.S. dollar equivalents, with translation adjustments recorded as the sole component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Exchange gains and losses related to foreign currency transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized in net income (loss). k . Revenue Recognition Revenues are generated from the sale of products. Performance obligations are met and revenue is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. When contract terms require transfer of control upon delivery at a customer’s location, revenue is recognized on the date of delivery. For products shipped under vendor managed inventory arrangements, revenue is recognized and billed when the product is consumed by the customer, at which point control has transferred and there are no not Revenues recognized from prior period performance obligations for the years ended December 31, 2021 2020 not As of December 31, 2021 2020, no one 606, Deferred revenue, unbilled revenue and deferred contract costs recorded on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 2020 not l.

Environmental Costs Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed. Remediation costs that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations are accrued when it is probable that these costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated. q. Income Taxes We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Pursuant to ASC 740, not not, r. Concentration Related to Customers and Suppliers One of our customers, a large defense primary contractor, comprised 20% and 17% of our total consolidated revenues for 2021 2020, 2021 2020, no 10% s. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable inputs, other than Level 1 not Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no The fair value of financial instruments approximated their carrying values at December 31, 2021 2020. t. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Ultralife Corporation by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period.

Business Combinations We allocate the purchase price of acquired businesses to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price over the net fair value of the separately identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to goodwill. Management determines the fair values of identifiable intangible assets acquired based on historical data, estimated discounted future cash flows, expected royalty rates for trademarks and trade names, as well as certain other information. The valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires a number of judgments and is subject to change as additional information about the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Additional information, which existed as of the acquisition date but unknown to us at that time, may may not twelve x. Leases At contract inception, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease and determines the lease classification. The lease term is determined based on the non-cancellable term of the lease adjusted to the extent optional renewal terms and termination rights are reasonably certain. Lease expense is recognized evenly over the lease term. Variable lease payments are recognized as period costs. The present value of remaining lease payments is recognized as a liability on the balance sheet with a corresponding right-of-use asset adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate for the discount rate, unless the interest rate implicit in the lease contract is readily determinable. The Company has adopted the practical expedients to not not 8 y.

Management determines the fair values of identifiable intangible assets acquired based on historical data, estimated discounted future cash flows, expected royalty rates for trademarks and trade names, as well as certain other information. The valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires a number of judgments and is subject to change as additional information about the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available.
