NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2014

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim reports and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period. Certain notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K have been omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2013 has been derived from the audited balance sheet at June 30, 2013 contained in such Form 10-K.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going-concern basis. See Note 2 for discussion of liquidity and going concern matters.

 

Nature of Business

 

Flux Power Holdings, Inc. (“Flux”) conducts operations through its wholly owned subsidiary, Flux Power, Inc., a California corporation (“Flux Power”)

   

The Company develops and sells rechargeable advanced energy storage systems. The Company has structured its business around its core technology, “The Battery Management System” (“BMS”). The Company’s BMS provides three critical functions to their battery systems: cell balancing, monitoring, and error reporting. Using its proprietary management technology, the Company is able to offer complete integrated energy storage solutions or custom modular standalone systems to their clients. The Company has also developed a suite of complementary technologies and products that accompany their core products. Sales during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were primarily to customers located throughout the United States.

 

All dollar amounts herein are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.  

  

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

  

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $7,384,000 through March 31, 2014, and had limited cash or other working capital as of March 31, 2014. To date, the Company’s revenues and operating cash flows have not been sufficient to sustain its operations.

 

From January to March 2014, we conducted a Private Placement Offering of Units (“Offering”). The Units were offered only to accredited investors and the purchase price of each Unit was $60,000, with each Unit consisting of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants. The warrants are exercisable for 5 years and each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share. On March 12, 2014, the Company completed the Offering by selling an aggregate of 32.4 Units to 41 accredited investors for a total of $1,944,000, which consisted of cash proceeds totaling approximately $1,394,000 and the conversion of previously outstanding debt totaling $550,000 (see Note 6). In connection with this offering, the Company issued 32,400,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 16,200,000 shares of common stock.

 

Security Research Associates, Inc., (“SRA”), served as Company’s placement agent in connection with the Offering and received $107,460 in cash and reimbursement for related expenses of approximately $10,000 and issued a warrant to purchase 1,791,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 for its services as Company’s private placement agent in the Offering (see Note 6).

Although the Company was able to convert $550,000 of debt to equity and raise additional cash in connection with its recent Offering, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining additional financing sufficient to sustain operations until positive cash flow from operations and profitability can be achieved. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has $673,000 in cash and a total of $664,000 was available under existing credit facilities. The Company’s primary operating strategy to generate revenue is by increasing sales of lithium battery packs for use on lift equipment, enabled by increasing the Company’s distribution network of battery distributors and equipment dealerships. Management plans to continue to seek additional equity financing to generate the capital required to fund its current operations and future planned growth. In addition, the Company is pursuing other investment structures that management believes may generate the necessary funding for the Company. Although management believes that the additional required funding will be obtained, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to obtain the additional required funds on a timely basis or that funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If such funds are not available when required, management will be required to curtail its investments in additional sales and marketing and product development resources, and capital expenditures, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future cash flows and results of operations, and its ability to continue operating as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to liquidate its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts that may differ from those reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

  

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements follows:

 

Principles of Consolidation

   

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the Flux Power Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Flux Power Inc. after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated events subsequent to March 31, 2014, through the date of this filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission for transactions and other events that may require adjustment of and/or disclosure in such financial statements.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation for comparative purposes.

 

Use of Estimates in Financial Statement Preparation

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as certain financial statement disclosures. Significant estimates include valuation allowances relating to accounts receivable, inventory, and deferred tax assets, and valuations of derivative liabilities and equity instruments. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

  

As of March 31, 2014, cash totaled approximately $673,000 and consists of funds held in a non-interest bearing bank deposit account. The Company considers all liquid short-term investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

 

 

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amount of our accounts payable and accounts receivable approximates their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments. The carrying amount of notes payable and line of credit approximates their fair value as the interest approximates current market interest rates for the similar instruments. Derivative liabilities recorded in connection with warrants are reported at their estimated fair value, with changes in fair value being reported in results of operations (see Note 7). Except for derivative liabilities referenced above, the Company does not have any other assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Accounts Receivable and Customer Deposits

 

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. The Company may require advance deposits from its customers prior to shipment of the ordered products. The Company has not experienced collection issues related to its accounts receivable, and has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

5
 

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist primarily of battery management systems and the related components, and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. The Company evaluates inventories to determine if write-downs are necessary due to obsolescence or if the inventory levels are in excess of anticipated demand at market value based on consideration of historical sales and product development plans. The Company did not record an adjustment related to obsolete inventory during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.  

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, of the related assets ranging from three to ten years, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, over the lesser of the useful life of the related asset or the lease term.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Pursuant to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10, Stock Compensation, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee service, we utilize the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant. This model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, includes expected volatility and expected life of the options. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances. In accordance with this guidance, the estimated grant-date fair value of options expected to vest is recognized as compensation expense on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period of the options.

 

Common stock or equity instruments such as warrants issued for services to non-employees are valued at their estimated fair value at the measurement date (the date when a firm commitment for performance of the services is reached, typically the date of issuance, or when performance is complete).

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, price is fixed or determinable, and collectability of the selling price is reasonably assured. Delivery occurs when risk of loss is passed to the customer, as specified by the terms of the applicable customer agreements. When a right of return exists, contractually or implied, the Company recognizes revenue on the sell-through method. Under this method, revenue is not recognized upon delivery of the inventory components. Instead, the Company record deferred revenue upon delivery and recognizes revenue when the inventory components are sold through to the end user. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, the Company did not record any deferred revenue.

 

Product Warranties

 

The Company evaluates its exposure to product warranty obligations based on historical experience. Our products are warrantied for five years unless modified by a separate agreement. As of March 31, 2014, the Company carries a warranty liability of approximately $11,000, which is included in accrued expenses on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

The Company records shipping and handling costs charged to customers as revenue and shipping and handling costs to operating expense as incurred.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

In accordance with authoritative guidance for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, if indicators of impairment exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of the affected long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows. If impairment is indicated, the Company measures the amount of such impairment by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the present value of the expected future cash flows associated with the use of the asset. The Company believes that no impairment indicators are present as of March 31, 2014.

   

6
 

 

Research and Development

 

  The Company is actively engaged in new product development efforts. Research and development cost relating to possible future products are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

 The Company follows FASB ASC Topic No, 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recorded to reflect the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities and their tax basis at each year-end. These amounts are adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect enacted changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse.

   

The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and on operating loss carry forwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

We also follow the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No.740 relating to uncertain tax provisions and have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where the Company is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. Based on our analysis, no unrecognized tax benefits have been identified as of March 31, 2014, or June 30, 2013, and accordingly, no additional tax liabilities have been recorded. The Company’s net operating losses could be subject to annual limitations under IRC section 382 due to previous or future ownership changes.

  

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

The Company calculates basic income (loss) per common share by dividing net earnings or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share include the impact from all dilutive potential common shares relating to outstanding convertible securities.

 

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, basic and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding were 62,455,354 and 52,482,656, respectively. The Company incurred a net loss for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, and therefore, basic and diluted loss per share for those periods are the same because the inclusion of potential common equivalent shares were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2014, there were 2,090,555 potentially dilutive common shares outstanding, which include common shares underlying outstanding stock options that were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.

 

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, basic and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding were 47,003,583 and 46,345,053, respectively. The Company incurred a net loss for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, and therefore, basic and diluted loss per share for those periods are the same because the inclusion of potential common equivalent shares were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2013, there were 3,734,023 potentially dilutive common shares outstanding, which include common shares underlying outstanding stock options that were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.

  

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risk.

 

We evaluate free-standing derivative instruments (or embedded derivatives) to properly classify such instruments within equity or as liabilities in our financial statements. The classification of a derivative instrument is reassessed at each reporting date. If the classification changes because of events during a reporting period, the instrument is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. There is no limit on the number of times a contract may be reclassified.

 

Instruments classified as derivative liabilities are recorded initially at their estimated fair value and are re-measured each reporting period (or upon reclassification). The change in fair value is recorded on our condensed consolidated statements of operations in other (income) expense (see Note 7).

 

New Accounting Standards

 

 The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. There have been no recently issued accounting standards, or changes in accounting standards, that have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Common Stock and Warrants

 

Private Placement Offering of Units - 2014

 

As of March 31, 2014, the remaining principal balance on the Esenjay Secondary Revolving Promissory Note for Operating Capital was $450,000 subsequent to the conversion of $550,000.

 

From January to March 2014, the Company conducted a Private Placement Offering of Units (“Offering”). The Units were offered only to accredited investors and the purchase price of each Unit was $60,000, with each Unit consisting of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants. The warrants are exercisable for 5 years and each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share. On March 12, 2014, the Company completed the Offering by selling an aggregate of 32.4 Units to 41 accredited investors resulting in the conversion of debt to equity in the amount of $550,000 and cash proceeds of approximately $1,394,000, and issuance of 32,400,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 16,200,000 shares of common stock. The Offering was conducted in three tranches. On January 13, 2014, we completed our first tranche of the Offering by selling 10 Units to Esenjay for an aggregate purchase price of $600,000, of which (i) $200,000 was paid in cash, and (ii) $400,000 was a conversion of $400,000 of principal amount outstanding under the Esenjay Secondary Revolving Promissory Note for Operating Capital dated October 1, 2011 for $1,000,000, as amended (see Note 4). In connection with Esenjay’s purchase of the Units, we issued 10,000,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock. On February 14, 2014, we completed our second tranche of the Offering by selling 2.8 Units to five accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of $168,000, all of which were paid in cash. In connection with the closing of the second tranche, we issued a total of 2,800,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of our common stock. We issued a total of 2,800,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of our common stock. On March 12, 2014, we completed the final tranche of the Offering by closing on the sale of 19.6 Units to 41 accredited investors for total purchase price of $1,176,000, pursuant to which we issued 19,600,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,800,000 shares of common stock. Esenjay participated in the final tranche by purchasing a total of 2.5 Units for an aggregate purchase price of $150,000, of which the $150,000 was a conversion of principal amount outstanding under the Esenjay Secondary Revolving Promissory Note for Operating Capital dated October 1, 2011 for $1,000,000, as amended (see Note 4).

 

Security Research Associates Inc. (“SRA”) of San Francisco served as Company’s placement agent in connection with the Offering. On March 13, 2014, the board of directors (“Board”) increased the size of the Board to five (5) and appointed Timothy Collins as director and executive chairman of the Board. Mr. Collins is the Chief Executive Office, President, Director and shareholder of SRA. The Company engaged SRA for services rendered in conjunction with this Offering and paid cash compensation in the amount of 9% of the gross proceeds raised and a warrant to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to 9% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering received by the Company from all investors placed by SRA divided by $0.06 per share. The Company paid SRA $107,460 and issued a warrant to purchase 1,791,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 for its services as the Company’s private placement agent in the Offering.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company inadvertently in error issued duplicate stock certificates representing an aggregate of 2,800,000 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result, there was an additional 2,800,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the records of the Company’s transfer agent as of March 31, 2014. The Company is in the process of correcting this error. The number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding reflected in the financial statements and these notes exclude 2,800,000 shares of common stock which were inadvertently issued in error.

  

The securities offered and sold in the Offering have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). The Securities were offered and sold to accredited investors in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.

Private Placements - 2012

 

In July, August, and October 2012, the Company issued an aggregated of 2,353,093 shares of common stock and 507,019 five (5) year warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.41 per share, resulting in aggregate proceeds of approximately $980,000, pursuant to private placement transactions.

 

Repricing of Warrants. The Offering (see above) included warrants issued at a price of $0.20, which triggered an anti-dilution protection for Company’s warrant holders issued under our 2012 Private Placements that were issued for an offering price of our common stock at $0.41. As a result, the Board of Directors gave approval to amend the exercise price of 2,907,347 common share purchase warrants issued by way of our completed 2012 Private Placements, which included the July, August and October 2012 closings of 507,019, our June 2012 closing of 562,551 and the Baytree advisory agreement of 1,837,777. The exercise price of the 2,907,347 common share purchase warrants was reduced to $0.27 from $0.41 per warrant share and applies to all warrants issued in our 2012 Private Placements. On April 2, 2014, the Company provided notice of adjustment to the Warrant Holders in accordance with the applicable section of the warrant certificate. The remaining terms, including expiration dates, of all warrants remain unchanged. The modified exercise price of the warrants to $0.27 resulted in a repricing modification charge of $98,000 that was recorded as an off-set to additional paid-in capital.

 

The common stock purchased in the above referenced private placements and the common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants have piggyback registration rights. The securities offered and sold in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

On June 14, 2012, the Company entered into an Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) with Baytree Capital, a significant shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which Baytree Capital agreed to provide business and advisory services for 24 months in exchange for 100,000 restricted shares of our newly issued common stock at the commencement of each six (6) month period in return for its services, and a warrant to purchase 1,837,777 restricted shares of our common stock for a period of five ( 5 ) years at an exercise price of $0.41 per share (“Advisory Agreement Warrants”), also see above (Private Placements – 2012) regarding repricing of warrants. In connection with this agreement, the estimated fair value of the warrants issued in the approximate amount of $3,258,000 was recorded as prepaid advisory fees, which is expected to be amortized on a pro-rata basis over the term of the agreement.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, includes compensation expense for stock-based options and awards granted based on the grant date fair value. For options and awards granted, expenses are amortized under the straight-line method over the expected vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations has been reduced for estimated forfeitures of options that are subject to vesting. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods based on changes in the estimated forfeiture rate. During the first quarter of fiscal 2014 the Company revised its forfeiture rate based on prior year actual forfeitures. The change in forfeiture rate from 5% to 13% resulted in a reduction of approximately $21,000 to previously recognized stock based compensation expense.

 

Based on the closing price of our stock at March 31, 2014 of $0.39, the intrinsic value of the exercisable options at March 31, 2014, was approximately $844,000.

 

We allocated stock-based compensation expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for employee option grants and non-employee option grants as follows:

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options. The fair value of stock options was measured at the grant date using the assumptions (annualized percentages) in the table below:

 

Nine months ended March 31,  2014  2013
Expected volatility  218%  100%
Risk free interest rate  0.7% to 1.7%  0.8% to 3.0%
Forfeiture rate  13%  5%
Dividend yield  0%  0%
Expected term  3-5 years  5-10 years

  

The remaining amount of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense at March 31, 2014, is approximately $780,000, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 8.02 years.

  

NOTE 7 – Warrant Derivative Liability

 

At March 31, 2014, there were 2,907,347 outstanding warrants classified as derivative liabilities due to adjustment in exercise price as a result of an anti-dilution provision included in the underlying warrant agreements.

 

Repricing of Warrants

 

On March 13, 2014, our Board of Directors approved to amend the exercise price of 2,907,347 common share purchase warrants issued in connection with the completed 2012 Private Placements. As a result of a certain anti-dilution provision in the outstanding warrants, the exercise price of the 2,907,347 common share purchase warrants were reduced to $0.27 from $0.41 per warrant share and applies to all warrants issued in our 2012 Private Placements. The remaining terms, including expiration dates, of all warrants remain unchanged. The modified exercise price of the warrants to $0.27 resulted in a repricing modification charge of $98,000.

 

Warrants classified as derivative liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair values at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date. Warrants were determined to have an estimated fair value per share and aggregate value as of March 31, 2014, and in aggregate value as of June 30, 2013 as follows:

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

We follow FASB ASC Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) in connection with financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis subsequent to initial recognition.

 

13
 

 

ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 

The hierarchy noted above requires us to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value.

 

The fair value of our recorded derivative liabilities is determined based on unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data, which is a (Level 3) classification. We record derivative liabilities on our balance sheets at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Following is a summary as of the reporting date of the fair values and applicable level within the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

NOTE 9 – OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Sublease Agreement

 

Effective July 1, 2013, the Company relocated its principal office and manufacturing to Vista, California. The Company entered into a month-to-month sub-lease agreement for shared space with Epic Boats, a related party, with monthly payments of approximately $4,950. On December 1, 2013, the monthly payment increased to $7,920 due to Flux Power acquiring more facility square footage from Epic Boats. On March 1, 2014, the sub-lease agreement was terminated due to the majority of Epic Boats facility usage vacated; concurrently Epic Boat’s underlying lease with the property owner was cancelled and replaced by a lease with Flux Power as lessee. On March 1, 2014, Flux Power as the sub-lesser entered into a new sublease agreement with Epic Boats as the sub-lessee, whereas Epic Boats agrees to pay Flux Power 10% of facility costs through June 30, 2014, with March as a transition month requiring 20% of facility costs.

 

Epic Boats Inventory Deposit

 

As of March 31, 2014, the Company maintains a prepaid deposit from Epic Boats in the amount of $136,000. The deposit is related to anticipate sales of batteries from the Company to Epic Boats that have yet to be delivered.

  

NOTE 10 – CONCENTRATIONS

 

Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments. The Company maintains cash balances at a financial institution in San Diego, California. The Company’s cash balance at this institution is secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. As of March 31, 2014, cash totaled approximately $673,000, which consists of funds held in a non-interest bearing bank deposit account. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

 

Customer Concentrations

 

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had four customers that represented more than 10% of its revenues on an individual basis and approximately 76% and 64%, respectively, in the aggregate.

 

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, the Company had four and one major customer that represented more than 10% of its revenues on an individual basis and approximately 82% and 69%, in the aggregate.

 

Suppliers/Vendor Concentrations

 

We obtain components and supplies included in our products from a small group of suppliers. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, we had four suppliers, who accounted for more than 10% of our total inventory purchases on an individual basis and approximately 79% and 62%, respectively, in the aggregate.

 

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, we did not have a major supplier that accounted for more than 10% of our total purchases on an individual basis.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the audited financial statements and notes thereto and Part II, Item 7, 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 June 30, 2013.

 

Overview

 

We design, develop, and sell rechargeable advanced energy storage systems. We have developed an innovative high power battery cell management system (“BMS”) and have structured our business around this core technology. Our proprietary BMS provides three critical functions to our battery systems:

 

  · Cell Balancing : This is performed by continuously adjusting the capacity of each cell in a storage system according to temperature, voltage, and internal impedance metrics. This management assures longevity of the overall system.
     
  · Monitoring : This is performed through temperature probes, a physical connection to individual cells for voltage and calculations from basic metrics to determine remaining capacity and internal impedance. This monitoring assures accurate measurements to best manage the system and assure longevity.
     
  · Error reporting : This is performed by analyzing data from monitoring each individual cell and making decision on whether the individual cell or the system is operating out of normal specifications. This error reporting is crucial to system management as it ensures ancillary devices are not damaging your storage system and will give the operator an opportunity to take corrective action to maintain long overall system life.

 

Using our proprietary battery management technology, we are able to offer completely integrated energy storage solutions or custom modular standalone systems to our clients. In addition, we have also developed a suite of complementary technologies and products that accompany and enhance the abilities of our BMS to meet the needs of the growing advanced energy storage market.

 

We sold our first validated product in the second quarter of 2010 and have since delivered over 15 mega watt-hours of Advanced Energy Storage to clients such as NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc. (NACCO), GreenTech Automotive, Inc. (GTA), Crown Equipment Corporation, Damascus Corporation, Columbia Parcar Corporation, Wheego Electric Cars Inc., (“Wheego”), Epic Electric Vehicles, and Texas Association of Local Health Officials (TALHO).

 

Our primary focus is on our lift equipment with dealers/distributors, and secondarily, with electric tug and tow equipment, portable power, and the stationary power market. We anticipate that these markets will be the strongest for aggressive revenue growth over the coming year. Currently, we are working with various lift equipment OEM’s and their dealers, and separately with battery distributors to bring our advanced energy storage systems to the lift equipment market on a nation-wide basis.

 

The micro-grid market includes working with companies to provide mobile and man-portable advanced energy storage to act as gas generator replacements and convenient mobile power for lighting, disaster preparedness, communications and water filtration. We have demonstration units currently being evaluated by the U.S. military providing us with their assessment and feedback. Additionally, we have placed solar, grid-tie energy storage in an office setting facility to evaluate the results of the output to meet operational needs.

 

The Company believes that it may be able to achieve higher longer-term revenue by focusing on a smaller number of products and selling to customers that do not require extensive and lengthy product development and negotiation periods. As a result, the Company has narrowed its focus to product segments including motive power (includes lift and tow equipment), portable power, and grid energy storage. The Company is positioned to address these markets, which include applications such as industrial electric vehicles like electric forklifts, floor scrubbers, back-up power, grid-tie power, solar storage, electric service vehicles, pallet drivers, and mobile battery units. However, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be successful in transitioning companies in these segments from legacy lead-acid technologies to our advanced energy storage solutions.

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $7,370,000 through March 31, 2014, and as of March 31, 2014, had limited cash or other working capital. To date, the Company’s revenues and operating cash flows have not been sufficient to sustain its operations and it has relied on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. The audit report dated October 15, 2013, from the Company's independent registered public accounting firm indicated that the Company's significant accumulated deficit and its need to raise immediate additional financing among other factors, raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Recent Developments

 

In June 2013, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) to acquire KleenSpeed Technologies (“KleenSpeed”). KleenSpeed develops technology for distributed energy markets including grid storage. The LOI proposes that upon the successful closing of the acquisition, KleenSpeed will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flux. While the specific terms of the acquisition will be announced upon the execution of a definitive agreement, the acquisition is expected to be completed within the current fiscal year. In addition, the LOI contemplates that the consummation of the acquisition will be conditioned upon other customary closing conditions and the successful completion of a private placement of Flux’s common stock (the “Shares”) for a minimum of $800,000 and a maximum of $2,500,000 with the proceeds to be used primarily as working capital and future product development. On March 12, 2014, the Company completed raising $1,944,000 as part of its 2014 Private Placement. As of May 1, 2014, we are still in the process of completing our due diligence in anticipation of a merger with KleenSpeed.

 

In January 2014, we agreed to provide HDT Global, a leading provider of highly-engineered mobile military and emergency response solutions, with portable lithium-ion storage packs for HDT’s renewable solar energy solution designed to power military electronics in the field. On March 31, 2014, 10 Flux battery packs were shipped to HDT for initial use and testing by the military.

 

On February 7, 2014, Flux Power received approval to sell its lithium battery 24 volt LiFT Pack for Class III Toyota lift trucks. Toyota is the world’s number one selling lift truck manufacturer.

 

From January to March 2014, we conducted a Private Placement Offering of Units (“Offering”). The Units were offered only to accredited investors and the purchase price of each Unit was $60,000, with each Unit consisting of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants. The warrants are exercisable for 5 years and each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share. On March 12, 2014, the Company completed the Offering by selling an aggregate of 32.4 Units to 41 accredited investors for a total of $1,944,000, which consisted of cash proceeds totaling approximately $1,394,000 and the conversion of previously outstanding debt totaling $550,000 (see Note 6). In connection with this offering, the Company issued 32,400,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 16,200,000 shares of common stock.

 

Security Research Associates Inc. of San Francisco (“SRA”) served as our placement agent in connection with the Offering. The Company engaged SRA for services rendered in conjunction with this Offering and paid cash compensation in the amount of 9% of the gross proceeds raised and a warrant to purchase the number of shares of our common stock equal to 9% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering received by the Company from all investors placed by SRA divided by $0.06 per share. We paid SRA $107,460 and issued a warrant to purchase 1,791,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 for its services as our private placement agent in the Offering.

 

On March 13, 2014, the board of directors (“Board”) increased the size of the Board to five (5) and appointed Timothy Collins as director and executive chairman of the Board and Ronald Dutt, as director. Mr. Collins is the Chief Executive Office, President, Director and shareholder of SRA. In addition, Mr. Collins is a Director, President, and controlling shareholder of KleenSpeed, the target of the proposed acquisition under the LOI.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

Comparison for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 and 2013

 

Net Loss

 

Net losses reported were approximately $1,745,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to a net loss of approximately $1,098,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily resulting from an increase of $650,000 in valuation of warrant liability, a non-operating expense item under derivative accounting fair valuation.

  

Revenues

 

We currently sell products direct or through one of several retail distributors in North America. Our direct customers range from small to large companies while our distributors primarily distribute to smaller retail customers.

 

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014, decreased by approximately $14,000, or 13%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. This decrease in sales was primarily attributable to major customers ultimately not meeting their production expectations and the Company shift in product strategy to lift equipment.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014, decreased approximately $80,000, or 63%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. This large decrease in cost of revenues was attributable to decrease in related sales as discussed above.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased by approximately $66,000, or 330%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased to 49% compared to a negative 19% in the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Selling, and General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, and general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, were approximately $476,000 and $574,000, respectively. Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, public company costs, consulting costs, professional fees and other expenses. The decrease of approximately $98,000, or 17%, was primarily due to the expenses relating to the reverse merger (including legal and accounting fees expenses) in 2012 and a reduction in staffing and overhead implemented in May 2013.

 

Amortization of Prepaid Advisory Fees

 

Amortization of prepaid advisory fees for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, was approximately $427,000 and $445,000, respectively. The prepaid advisory fees are related to the fair value of the warrants issued under an advisory agreement with Baytree Capital dated June 14, 2012, and to the value of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued pursuant to the same agreement where Baytree Capital agreed to provide business and advisory services to the Company.

 

Research and Development Expense

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, were approximately $139,000 and $280,000, respectively. Such expenses consist primarily of materials, supplies, salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs, and other expenses. The decrease of approximately $141,000, or 50%, was primarily due to a decrease in personnel costs and benefits, and an increase in material and supplies consumption.

 

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Derivative Liability

 

Increases or decreases in fair value of the warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013 are included as a component of other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the respective period. As of March 31, 2014, the liability for warrants decreased to an expense of approximately to $650,000 from approximately $254,000 in income as of March 31, 2013. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, as a result of anti-dilution provisions in the outstanding warrants, the Company repriced it outstanding warrants issued under the 2012 Private Placement closings to a lower exercise price, resulting in a revaluation of the warrants as compared to prior periods (see Note 6, to the financial statements). The warrant liability and revaluations have not had a cash impact on the Company’s working capital, liquidity or business operations.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, were approximately $58,000 and $0, respectively. Such expenses consist of due diligence expenses related our proposed merger with KleenSpeed.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had a cash balance of approximately $673,000, negative working capital of approximately $355,000 (including approximately $395,000 of prepaid advisory fees), and an accumulated deficit of approximately $7,384,000. As discussed further below under “Future Liquidity Needs”, we do not currently believe that our existing cash resources are sufficient to meet the Company’s anticipated needs during the next twelve months, and that additional financing is required by the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to support current operations.

 

Cash Flows

 

Operating Activities

 

Our operating activities resulted in net cash used in operations of approximately $1,291,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014, compared to net cash used in operations of approximately $2,864,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2014, reflect the net loss of approximately $3,407,000 for the period offset by non-cash items including: depreciation of approximately $45,000, amortization of prepaid advisory fees of approximately $1,252,000, stock-based compensation of approximately $194,000, stock issued for services of $125,000, changes in the fair value of warrants liability of approximately $567,000. Changes in operating assets and liabilities included an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $44,000 and a decrease in accounts payable of approximately $105,000. Other changes include an increase in accrued expenses of approximately $3,000 primarily related to payroll and related costs, an increase in accrued interest of approximately $142,000, an increase in customer deposits of approximately $17,000, a decrease in customer deposits - related party of approximately $2,000, a decrease in inventory of $39,000, and a decrease in other current assets of approximately $39,000.

 

Investing Activities

 

There were no investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, was approximately $1,944,000 and $2,138,000, respectively.

 

From January to March 2014, we conducted a Private Placement Offering of Units (“Offering”). The Units were offered only to accredited investors and the purchase price of each Unit was $60,000, with each Unit consisting of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants. The warrants are exercisable for 5 years and each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share. On March 12, 2014 the Company completed the Offering by selling an aggregate of 32.4 Units to 41 accredited investors resulting in $550,000 conversion of debt to equity and cash proceeds of approximately $1,394,000, and issuance of 32,400,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 16,200,000 shares of common stock. The Offering was conducted in three tranches. On January 13, 2014, we completed our first tranche of the Offering by selling 10 Units to Esenjay for an aggregate purchase price of $600,000, of which (i) $200,000 was paid in cash, and (ii) $400,000 was a conversion of $400,000 of principal amount outstanding under the Esenjay Secondary Revolving Promissory Note for Operating Capital dated October 1, 2011 for $1,000,000, as amended (see Note 4). In connection with Esenjay’s purchase of the Units, we issued 10,000,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock. On February 14, 2014, we completed our second tranche of the Offering by selling 2.8 Units to five accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of $168,000, all of which were paid in cash. In connection with the closing of the second tranche, we issued a total of 2,800,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of our common stock. We issued a total of 2,800,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of our common stock. On March 12, 2014, we completed the final tranche of the Offering by closing on the sale of 19.6 Units to 41 accredited investors for total net purchase price of $1,276,000, pursuant to which we issued 19,600,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,800,000 shares of common stock. Esenjay participated in the final tranche by purchasing a total of 2.5 Units for an aggregate purchase price of $150,000, of which the $150,000 was a conversion of principal amount outstanding under the Esenjay Secondary Revolving Promissory Note for Operating Capital dated October 1, 2011 for $1,000,000, as amended (see Note 4).

 

We also incurred non-cash expenses in the form of 1,791,000 warrants issued to SRA as commission fees, at similar terms as the financing Warrants, for services provided, except that the exercise price of the warrants is $0.06 per share.

Future Liquidity Needs

  

The Company has evaluated its expected cash requirements over the next twelve months, which include, but are not limited to, support of current operations, expenses related to proposed acquisition of KleenSpeed, investments in additional sales and marketing and product development resources, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements, and has determined that our existing cash resources are not sufficient to meet our anticipated needs during this period. Despite our recent financing, based on our current and planned levels of expenditure, we estimate that additional financing proceeds is required by the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to support current operations. In addition, we anticipate that further additional financing will be required to fund our business plan subsequent to that date, until such time as revenues and related cash flows become sufficient to support our operating costs. As of March 31, 2014, we had a cash balance of approximately $673,000 and a total of $664,000 was available under credit lines with Esenjay.

 

If we are unable to increase sales of our products or obtain additional funding in the near future, our cash resources will rapidly be depleted and we may be required to further materially reduce or suspend operations, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, stock price and our relationships with third parties with whom we have business relationships, at least until additional funding is obtained. If we do not have sufficient funds to continue operations, we could be required to liquidate our assets, seek bankruptcy protection or other alternatives that would likely result in our receiving less than the value at which those assets are carried on our financial statements, and it is likely that investors will lose all or some of their investment in us.

 

Management plans to continue to seek additional equity financing to generate the capital required to fund its current operations and future planned growth. We have engaged financial advisors to assist in securing additional equity capital. Although management believes that the additional required funding will be obtained, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to obtain the additional required funds or that funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If such funds are not available, management will be required to curtail its investments in additional sales and marketing and product development resources, and capital expenditures, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future cash flows and results of operations, and its ability to continue operating as a going concern.

 

To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity or debt securities, our shareholders may experience additional significant dilution and such financing may involve restrictive covenants. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Such actions may have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, there were no accounting standards or interpretations that became effective or issued that are expected to have a material impact on our financial position, operations or cash flows.
