ORION ENERGY SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Orion includes Orion Energy Systems, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation, and all consolidated subsidiaries. Orion provides light emitting diode lighting systems, wireless Internet of Things enabled control solutions, project engineering, energy project management design, maintenance services and turnkey electric vehicle charging station installation services to commercial and industrial businesses, and federal and local governments, predominantly in North America.
Orion’s corporate offices and leased primary manufacturing operations are located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Orion also leases office space in Jacksonville, Florida, Lawrence, Massachusetts and Pewaukee, Wisconsin.
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Orion and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Orion have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 or other interim periods.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Orion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on June 12, 2023.
Allowance for Credit Losses
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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during that reporting period. Areas that require the use of significant management estimates include revenue recognition, inventory obsolescence, allowance for credit losses, accruals for warranty and loss contingencies, earn-out, income taxes, impairment analyses, and certain equity transactions. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Orion purchases components necessary for its lighting products, including lamps and LED components, from multiple suppliers. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022,
For the three months ended June 30, 2023,
As of June 30, 2023,
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Standards
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”), which requires an entity to assess impairment of its financial instruments based on its estimate of expected credit losses. Since the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB released several amendments to improve and clarify the implementation guidance. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments are effective for Orion for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2022. Entities are required to apply these changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Orion adopted ASU 2016-13 effective April 1, 2023. The effect of adoption was immaterial.
NOTE 3 — REVENUE
Orion generates revenue primarily by selling manufactured or sourced commercial lighting fixtures and components, sourced electric vehicle chargers and related products, installing these products in customer’s facilities, and providing maintenance services including repairs and replacements for the lighting and related electrical components. Orion recognizes revenue in accordance with the guidance in “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) when control of the goods or services being provided (which we refer to as a performance obligation) is transferred to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration Orion expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, Orion acquired Voltrek LLC ("Voltrek"), which sells and installs sourced electric vehicle charging stations and related software subscriptions and renewals. The results of Voltrek are included in the Orion Electric Vehicle Charging segment ("EV") and compliment Orion’s existing turnkey installation model.
The sale of charging stations and related software subscriptions and renewals is presented in Product revenue. Orion is the principal in the sales of charging stations as it has control of the physical products prior to transfer to the customer. Accordingly, revenue is recognized on a gross basis. For certain sales, primarily software subscriptions and renewals, Orion is the sales agent providing access to the content and recognize commission revenue net of amounts due to third parties who fulfill the performance obligation. For these sales, control passes at the point in time upon providing access of the content to the customer.
The sale of installation and services related to the EV charging business is presented in Service revenue. Revenue from the EV segment that includes both the sale of product and service is allocated between the product and service performance obligations based on relative standalone selling prices, and is recorded in Product revenue and Service revenue, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
8
Revenue from the maintenance offering that includes both the sale of Orion manufactured or sourced product and service is allocated between the product and service performance obligations based on relative standalone selling prices, and is recorded in Product revenue and Service revenue, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The following tables provide detail of Orion’s total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 8 — LEASES
From time to time, Orion leases assets from third parties. Orion also leases certain assets to third parties.
Orion accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. Under ASC 842, both finance and operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with initial terms in excess of 12 months are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Orion recognizes lease expense for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, referred to as short term leases, on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
A summary of Orion’s assets leased from third parties follows (dollars in thousands):

Assets Orion Leases to Other Parties
One of Orion’s frequent customers purchases products and installation services under agreements that provide for monthly payments, at a fixed monthly amount, of the contract price, plus interest, typically over a five-year period. While Orion retains ownership of the light fixtures during the financing period, the transaction terms and the underlying economics associated with used lighting fixtures results in Orion essentially ceding ownership of the lighting fixtures to the customer after completion of the agreement. The portions of the transaction associated with the sale of the light fixtures is accounted for as a sales-type lease under ASC 842. The total transaction price in these contracts is allocated between the lease and non-lease components in the same manner as the total transaction price of other turnkey projects containing lighting fixtures and installation services.
Revenues, and production and acquisition costs, associated with sales-type leases are included in Product revenue and Costs of product revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. There was

NOTE 11 — NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period and does not consider common stock equivalents.
Diluted net income per common share reflects the dilution that would occur if stock options were exercised and restricted shares vested. In the computation of diluted net income per common share, Orion uses the treasury stock method for outstanding options and restricted shares. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, Orion was in a net loss position; therefore, the Basic and Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are equal because any increase to the basic shares would be anti-dilutive.

The Credit Agreement provides for a
Effective November 4, 2022, Orion, with Bank of America, N.A. as lender, executed Amendment No. 1 to its Credit Agreement. The primary purpose of the amendment was to include the assets of the acquired subsidiaries, Stay-Lite Lighting, Inc. ("Stay-Lite Lighting") and Voltrek, as secured collateral under the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, eligible assets of Stay-Lite and Voltrek will be included in the borrowing base calculation for the purpose of establishing the monthly borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement. The amendment also clarified that the earn-out liabilities associated with the Stay-Lite and Voltrek transactions are permitted under the Credit Agreement and that the expenses recognized in connection with those earn-outs should be added back in the computation of EBITDA, as defined, under the Credit Agreement.
As of June 30, 2023, Orion was in compliance with all debt covenants.

NOTE 13 — INCOME TAXES
Orion’s income tax provision was determined by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate, based upon the facts and circumstances known, to book income (loss) before income tax, adjusting for discrete items. Orion’s actual effective tax rate is adjusted each interim period, as appropriate, for changes in facts and circumstances. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, Orion recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $
As of June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, Orion had a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset balance. Orion considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. In the event that Orion determines that the deferred tax assets are able to be realized, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination is made.
As of each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. Orion considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. In the event that Orion determines that the more or less of its deferred tax assets are able to be realized, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would be reflected in the company’s provision for income taxes.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of June 30, 2023, Orion’s balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $
Orion has classified the amounts recorded for uncertain tax benefits in the balance sheet as Other long-term liabilities to the extent that payment is not anticipated within one year. Orion recognizes penalties and interest related to uncertain tax liabilities in income tax (benefit) expense. Penalties and interest are included in the unrecognized tax benefits.
NOTE 14 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
Orion is subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Orion does not believe the final resolution of any of such claims or legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on Orion’s future results of operations or financial condition.
State Tax Assessment
During fiscal year 2018, Orion was notified of a pending sales and use tax audit by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue for the period covering April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2017. This sales and use tax audit was settled during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 with no tax adjustment.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In August 2010, Orion’s Board of Directors approved a non-compensatory employee stock purchase plan, or “ESPP”. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, Orion issued
Sale of shares
In March 2023, Orion filed a universal shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the shelf registration statement, Orion currently has the flexibility to publicly offer and sell from time to time up to $
15
of debt and/or equity securities. The filing of the shelf registration statement may help facilitate Orion’s ability to raise public equity or debt capital to expand existing businesses, fund potential acquisitions, invest in other growth opportunities, repay existing debt, or for other general corporate purposes.
In March 2021, Orion entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement to undertake an “at the market” (ATM) public equity capital raising program pursuant to which Orion may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time, having an aggregate offering price of up to $
NOTE 16 — STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED SHARES
At Orion’s 2019 annual meeting of shareholders held on August 7, 2019, Orion’s shareholders approved the Orion Energy Systems, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Amended 2016 Plan”). The Amended 2016 Plan increased the number of shares of Orion’s common stock available for issuance under the Amended 2016 Plan from
The Amended 2016 Plan authorizes grants of equity-based and incentive cash awards to eligible participants designated by the Plan's administrator. Awards under the Amended 2016 Plan may consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units, incentive awards or dividend equivalent units.
Prior to the 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, Orion maintained its 2004 Stock and Incentive Awards Plan, as amended, which authorized the grant of cash and equity awards to employees (the “2004 Plan”). No new awards are being granted under the 2004 Plan; however, all awards granted under the 2004 Plan that are outstanding will continue to be governed by the 2004 Plan. Forfeited awards originally issued under the 2004 Plan are canceled and are not available for subsequent issuance under the 2004 Plan or under the Amended 2016 Plan. The Amended 2016 Plan and the 2004 Plan also permit accelerated vesting in the event of certain changes of control of Orion as well as under other special circumstances.
Certain non-employee directors have from time to time elected to receive stock awards in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to elections made under Orion’s non-employee director compensation program.
The following amounts of stock-based compensation were recorded (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 17 — SEGMENTS
Reportable segments are components of an entity that have separate financial data that the entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") regularly reviews when allocating resources and assessing performance. Orion's CODM is the chief executive officer. Previously, Orion had four reportable segments: Orion Services Group Division ("OSG"), Orion Distribution Services Division ("ODS"), Orion U.S. Markets Division (“USM”) and Orion Electric Vehicle Charging Division (“EV Division”). Effective during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, Orion began to evaluate and report the business using three segments: Orion Lighting Division, Orion Maintenance Division and Orion Electric Vehicle Charging Division (“EV Division”). Orion configured its fiscal 2024 plan in order to compare actual performance to plan performance for these segments. Due to the change in composition of reportable segments in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the corresponding segment information for fiscal year 2023 has been restated for presentation on a comparable basis.
Lighting Segment
The Lighting Segment develops and sells lighting products and provides construction and engineering services for Orion's commercial lighting and energy management systems. The Lighting Segment provides engineering, design, lighting products and in many cases turnkey solutions for large national accounts, governments, municipalities, schools and other customers mostly through direct sales and also sells lighting products though manufacturer representative agencies and to the wholesale contractor markets through energy service companies and contractors.
Maintenance Segment
The Maintenance Segment provides retailers, distributors and other businesses with maintenance, repair and replacement services for the lighting and related electrical components deployed in their facilities.
Electric Vehicle Charging Segment
The Electric Vehicle Charging Segment offers leading electric vehicle charging expertise, sells and installs sourced electric vehicle charging stations with related software subscriptions and renewals and provides EV turnkey installation solutions with ongoing support to all commercial verticals.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other is comprised of operating expenses not allocated to Orion’s segments and adjustments to reconcile to consolidated results (dollars in thousands).

The tradename intangible asset was valued using a relief from royalty method. The significant assumptions used include the estimated revenue and royalty rate, among other factors.
The vendor relationship intangible asset was valued using the income approach – excess earnings method. The significant assumptions include estimated revenue, cost of goods sold, and probability of renewal, among other factors.
The customer relationship intangible asset was valued using the income approach – with-and-without method. The significant assumptions include estimated cash flows (including appropriate revenue, cost of revenue and operating expenses attributable to the asset, retention rate, among other factors), and discount rate, reflecting the risks inherent in the future cash flow stream, among other factors.
18
The categorization of the framework used to measure fair value of the intangible assets is considered to be within the Level 3 valuation hierarchy due to the subjective nature of the unobservable inputs used.

Voltrek's post-acquisition results of operations since October 5, 2022 are included in Orion’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The operating results of Voltrek are included in the EV segment. See note 17 – Segments, for results.
Transaction costs related to the Voltrek Acquisition are recorded in acquisition costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Transaction costs totaled $
If Voltrek was acquired on April 1, 2022, the pro forma Orion revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 would have been $
The pro forma information was determined based on the historical results of Orion and unaudited financial results from Voltrek. These proforma results reflect additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant, and equipment and intangible asset occurred at the beginning of the period, along with consequential tax effects. The unaudited pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the business combinations been completed at the beginning of the period or the results that may occur in the future. Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the impact of any synergies resulting from the acquisitions.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in this Form 10-Q, as well as our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, prospects, financial condition, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and are “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined under the federal securities laws.

Overview
We provide state-of-the-art light emitting diode (“LED”) lighting systems, wireless Internet of Things (“IoT”) enabled control solutions, commercial and industrial electric vehicle (“EV”) charging infrastructure solutions and maintenance services. We help our customers achieve their sustainability, energy savings and carbon footprint reduction goals through innovative technology and exceptional service. We sell our products and services into many vertical markets within the broader commercial and industrial market segment. Primary verticals include: big box retail, manufacturing, warehousing/logistics, commercial office, federal and municipal government, healthcare and schools. Our services consist of turnkey installation and system maintenance. Virtually all of our sales occur within North America.
Our lighting products consist primarily of LED lighting fixtures, many of which include IoT enabled control systems. Our principal lighting customers include large national account end-users, federal and state government facilities, large regional account end-users, electrical distributors, electrical contractors and energy service companies (“ESCOs”). Currently, most of our lighting products are manufactured at our leased production facility located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, although as the LED and related IoT market continues to evolve, we are increasingly sourcing products and components from third parties in order to provide versatility in our product development.
We differentiate ourselves from our competitors through offering comprehensive project management services to national account customers to retrofit their multiple locations. Our comprehensive services include initial site surveys and audits, utility incentive and government subsidy management, engineering design, and project management from delivery through to installation and controls integration. In addition, we began to offer lighting and electrical maintenance services in fiscal 2021 which enables us to support a lifetime business relationship with our customer (which we call “Customers for Life”). We completed the Stay-Lite Lighting acquisition on January 1, 2022, which has allowed us to further expand our maintenance services capabilities. We completed the acquisition of Voltrek on October 5, 2022, which has allowed us to further expand our turnkey services capabilities as well as capitalize on the rapidly growing market for EV charging solutions.
We believe the market for LED lighting products and related controls continues to grow. Due to their size and flexibility in application, we also believe that LED lighting systems can address opportunities for retrofit applications that cannot be satisfied
20
by other lighting technologies. Our LED lighting technologies have been the primary component of our revenue as we continue to strive to be a leader in the LED market.
In fiscal 2022, we continued to successfully capitalize on our capability of being a full service, turn-key provider of LED lighting and controls systems with design, build, installation and project management services, as we continued a very large project for a major national account. As a result of this success, we have evolved our business strategy to focus on further expanding the nature and scope of our products and services offered to our customers. This further expansion of our products and services includes pursuing projects to develop recurring revenue streams, including providing lighting and electrical maintenance services and utilizing control sensor technology to collect data and assisting customers in the digitization of this data, along with other potential services. We also are pursuing the expansion of our IoT, “smart-building” and “connected ceiling” and other related technology, software and controls products and services that we offer to our customers. While we currently intend to primarily pursue these expansion strategies organically, we also may explore potential additional business acquisitions, like our acquisition of Stay-Lite Lighting and Voltrek, which have more quickly added these types of expanded and different capabilities to our product and services offerings.
We generally do not have long-term contracts with our customers for product or turnkey services that provide us with recurring annual revenue. However, our maintenance services contracts usually consist of multi-year arrangements. We typically generate substantially all of our revenue from sales of lighting and control systems and related services to governmental, commercial and industrial customers on a project-by-project basis. We also perform work under master services or product purchasing agreements with major customers with sales completed on a purchase order basis. In addition, in order to provide quality and timely service under our multi-location master retrofit agreements we are required to make substantial working capital expenditures and advance inventory purchases that we may not be able to recoup if the agreements or a substantial volume of purchase orders under the agreements are delayed or terminated. The loss of, or substantial reduction in sales to, any of our significant customers, or our current single largest customer, or the termination or delay of a significant volume of purchase orders by one or more key customers, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any given future period.
We typically sell our lighting systems in replacement of our customers’ existing fixtures. We call this replacement process a "retrofit". We frequently engage our customer’s existing electrical contractor to provide installation and project management services. We also sell our lighting systems on a wholesale basis, principally to electrical distributors and ESCOs to sell to their own customer bases.
The gross margins of our products can vary significantly depending upon the types of products we sell, with margins typically ranging from 10% to 50%. As a result, a change in the total mix of our sales among higher or lower margin products can cause our profitability to fluctuate from period to period.
Our fiscal year ends on March 31. Our current fiscal year ends on March 31, 2024 and is referred to as “fiscal 2024”. We refer to our just completed fiscal year, which ended on March 31, 2023, as "fiscal 2023", and our prior fiscal year which ended on March 31, 2022 as "fiscal 2022". Our fiscal first quarter of each fiscal year ends on June 30, our fiscal second quarter ends on September 30, our fiscal third quarter ends on December 31 and our fiscal fourth quarter ends on March 31.
Reportable segments are components of an entity that have separate financial data that the entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") regularly reviews when allocating resources and assessing performance. Our CODM is our chief executive officer. Previously, we had four reportable segments: Orion Services Group Division ("OSG"), Orion Distribution Services Division ("ODS"), Orion U.S. Markets Division (“USM”) and Orion Electric Vehicle Charging Division (“EV Division”). Effective during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we began to evaluate and report the business using three segments: Orion Lighting Division, Orion Maintenance Division and Orion Electric Vehicle Charging Division (“EV Division”).

Acquisition
Acquisition of Voltrek
Effective on October 5, 2022, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Voltrek LLC, a leading electric vehicle charging company that provides turnkey installation solutions with ongoing support to all commercial verticals. The initial purchase price consisted of $5.0 million cash and $1.0 million of stock. We also paid an additional $3.0 million based on Voltrek's performance in fiscal 2023 and could pay up to an additional $3.5 million and $7.15 million in compensatory consideration if Voltrek exceeds certain earnings targets in fiscal 2024 and 2025, respectively. The acquisition was funded from existing cash and credit resources and has been operating as Voltrek, a division of Orion Energy Systems.

Revenue, Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin. Product revenue increased 1.4%, or $0.2 million, for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 versus the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Service revenue decreased 10.9%, or $0.5 million, for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 versus the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The resulting decrease in total revenue was due to variability in the timing of larger lighting projects offset by the addition of EV revenue. The decrease in the first quarter revenue was partially offset by revenues due to the acquisition Voltrek. Cost of product revenue decreased by 3.1%, or $0.3 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 versus the comparable period in fiscal 2023. Cost of service revenue increased by 10.5%, or $0.4 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 versus the comparable period in fiscal 2023. Gross margin decreased from 19.8% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to 18.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, due primarily to reduced sales decreasing the absorption of fixed costs.
22
Operating Expenses
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 52.9%, or $2.0 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This comparative increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Voltrek and a $1.1 million accrual of the expected Voltrek earn-out payment.
Acquisition Related Costs. Acquisition related costs were relatively flat, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased 14.1%, or $0.4 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This comparative increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Voltrek.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses were relatively flat, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
Lighting Division
Our lighting division develops and sells lighting products and provides construction and engineering services for our commercial lighting and energy management systems. Our lighting division provides engineering, design, lighting products and in many cases turnkey solutions for large national accounts, governments, municipalities, schools and other customers mostly through direct sales and also sells lighting products though manufacturer representative agencies and to the wholesale contractor markets through ESCOs and contractors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We believe our existing cash and operating cash flow provide us with the financial flexibility needed to meet our capital requirements, including to fund targeted our budgeted capital expenditures and working capital needs for at least one year from the date of this report, as well as our longer-term capital requirements for periods beyond at least one year from the date of this report.
We had approximately $8.2 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023, compared to $16.0 million at March 31, 2023. Our cash position decreased as a result of an operating loss and an overall use of working capital during the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
Our future liquidity needs and forecasted cash flows are dependent upon many factors, including our relative revenue, gross margins, cash management practices, cost containment, working capital management and capital expenditures. While we believe that we will likely have adequate available cash and equivalents and credit availability under our Credit Agreement to satisfy our currently anticipated working capital and liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months based on our current cash flow forecast, if we experience significant liquidity constraints, we may be required to issue equity or debt securities, reduce our sales efforts, implement additional cost savings initiatives or undertake other efforts to conserve our cash.
Cash Flows

Cash Flows Related to Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities primarily consists of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of debt issue costs, provisions for reserves, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
Cash used in operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $7.3 million and consisted of our net loss of $6.6 million adjusted for non-cash expense items and net cash used in changes in operating assets of $0.8 million, the largest of which was a $1.9 million decrease in accounts payable.
24
Cash used in operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $5.0 million and consisted of our net loss of $2.8 million adjusted for non-cash expense items and net cash used in changes in working capital of $2.0 million, the largest of which was a $2.5 million decrease in accounts payable.
Cash Flows Related to Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities of $0.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 consisted primarily of purchases of property and equipment.
Cash used in investing activities of $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 consisted primarily of purchases of property and equipment.
Cash Flows Related to Financing Activities. Cash used by financing activities of $3 thousand in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 consisted primarily of payment of long-term debt.
Cash provided by financing activities of $48 thousand in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 consisted primarily of proceeds from employee equity exercises.
Working Capital
Our net working capital as of June 30, 2023 was $20.6 million, consisting of $43.0 million in current assets and $22.3 million in current liabilities. Our net working capital as of March 31, 2023 was $25.9 million, consisting of $50.4 million in current assets and $24.5 million in current liabilities.
We generally attempt to maintain at least a three-month supply of on-hand inventory of purchased components and raw materials to meet anticipated demand, as well as to reduce our risk of unexpected raw material or component shortages or supply interruptions. Because of recent supply chain challenges, we have been making additional incremental inventory purchases. Our accounts receivables, inventory and payables may increase to the extent our revenue and order levels increase.
Indebtedness
Revolving Credit Agreement
On December 29, 2020, we entered into a new $25 million Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as lender (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement replaced our prior $20.15 million secured revolving credit and security agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”).
The replacement of the Prior Credit Agreement with the Credit Agreement provides us with increased financing capacity and liquidity to fund our operations and implement our strategic plans.
The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that matures on December 29, 2025. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base requirement based on eligible receivables, inventory and cash. As of June 30, 2023, the borrowing base of the Credit Facility supports $18.6 million of availability, with $8.6 million of remaining availability net of $10.0 million borrowed.
The Credit Agreement is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of our assets.
Effective November 4, 2022, we, along with the Lender, executed Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement. The primary purpose of the amendment was to include the assets of our acquired subsidiaries, Stay-Lite Lighting and Voltrek as secured collateral under the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, eligible assets of Stay-Lite and Voltrek are now included in our borrowing base calculation for the purpose of establishing our monthly borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement. The amendment also clarified that the earn-out liabilities associated with the Stay-Lite and Voltrek transactions are permitted under the Credit Agreement and that the expenses recognized in connection with those earn-outs should be added back in the computation of EBITDA, as defined, under the Credit Agreement.
25
Backlog
Backlog represents the amount of revenue that we expect to realize in the future as a result of firm, committed purchase orders. Backlog totaled $19.0 million and $17.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. We generally expect our backlog to be recognized as revenue within one year. Backlog does not include any amounts for contracted maintenance services.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
We have experienced increases in various input costs including labor, components and transportation in the past year. In response, we have implemented multiple price increases, and we have substantially mitigated the inflationary pressures, such that our results from operations have not been materially affected to date by inflation. We are monitoring input costs and cannot currently predict the future impact on our operations by increasing or ongoing inflationary pressures.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and our related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We re-evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation, stock-based compensation and income taxes. The estimates of forecasted cash flows are used in the assessment for impairment of long-lived assets and the realizability of deferred tax assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. A summary of our critical accounting policies is set forth in the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, there were no material changes in our accounting policies.

Our exposure to market risk was discussed in the “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” section contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023. There have been no material changes to such exposures since March 31, 2023.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of June 30, 2023, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, such officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
