BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

1. BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (referred to herein as the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,” “our” and “us”) design, manufacture, integrate, refurbish, service, distribute and sell electric power systems, distributed energy resources, power generation equipment and mobile electric vehicle (“EV”) charging solutions. Our products and services are sold to a broad range of customers in the utility, industrial and commercial markets. Our customers include, but are not limited to, electric, gas and water utilities, data center developers and owners, EV charging infrastructure developers and owners, and distributed energy developers. The Company is headquartered in Fort Lee, New Jersey and operates from three (3) additional locations in the U.S. for manufacturing, service and maintenance, engineering, sales and administration.

 

We have two reportable segments as defined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 26, 2024: Electrical Infrastructure Equipment (“Electrical Infrastructure”) and Critical Power Solutions (“Critical Power”).

 

Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC and reflect the accounts of the Company as of June 30, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading to the reader. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements but this filing does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for a year-end balance sheet.

 

All dollar amounts (except share and per share data) presented in the notes to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are stated in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted. ASC 740-270 requires the use of an estimated annual effective tax rate to compute the tax provision during an interim period unless certain exceptions are met. We have used a discrete-period computation method to calculate taxes for the fiscal six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The Company anticipates that its annual effective tax rate will be 0% for the year ending December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company continues to provide a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets since the Company believes it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pioneer and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the risk factors under the heading “Part II - Item 1A. Risk Factors” and the risk factors and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Liquidity

 

The accompanying 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. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as of June 30, 2024, the Company had $6,512 of cash on hand and working capital of $11,140. The cash on hand was generated primarily from the sale of common stock under the ATM Program (as defined below), payment of all unpaid principal and interest from the two subordinated promissory notes we received in connection with the sale of the transformer business units in August 2019 for an aggregate principal amount of $7,500 (the “Seller Notes”) during the year ended December 31, 2022, and cash flows from operating activities. On October 20, 2020, we entered into an At the Market Sale Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), pursuant to which we may offer and sell our shares of common stock from time to time through Wainwright, acting as sales agent or principal (the “ATM Program”). Since October 20, 2020, and through June 30, 2024, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,835,616 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $14,051, before any sales agent fees and expenses payable by us under the ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold an aggregate of 919,557 shares of common stock for an aggregate consideration of approximately $5,147, before any sales agent fees and expenses payable by the Company under the ATM Program. As of June 30, 2024, $69,853 of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM Program.

 

 

The Company has historically met its cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings, the completion of the sale of the transformer business units in August 2019, sale of common stock under the ATM Program and collecting all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes. Historically, the Company’s cash requirements were generally for operating activities, debt repayment, capital improvements and acquisitions. The Company expects to meet its cash needs with the working capital and cash flows from the Company’s operating activities. The Company expects its cash requirements to be generally for operating activities, product development and capital improvements. The Company expects that its current cash balance is sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months from the date our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The continuing impacts of the rising interest rates, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and geopolitical developments, such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, have resulted, and may continue to result, in a global slowdown of economic activity, which may decrease demand for a broad variety of goods and services, including those provided by the Company’s clients, while also disrupting supply channels, sales channels and advertising and marketing activities for an unknown period of time. As a result of the current uncertainty in economic activity, the Company is unable to predict the potential size and duration of the impact on its revenue and its results of operations, if any. The extent of the potential impact of these macroeconomic factors on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on a variety of factors, including the extent of geopolitical disruption and its impact on the Company’s clients, partners, industry, and employees, all of which are uncertain at this time and cannot be accurately predicted. The Company continues to monitor the effects of these macroeconomic factors and intends to take steps deemed appropriate to limit the impact on its business. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company was able to operate substantially at capacity.

 

There can be no assurance that precautionary measures, whether adopted by the Company or imposed by others, will be effective, and such measures could negatively affect its sales, marketing, and client service efforts, delay and lengthen its sales cycles, decrease its employees’, clients’, or partners’ productivity, or create operational or other challenges, any of which could harm its business and results of operations.
