LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Note 2 — LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been cash from contributions from founders or other investors. The Company had retained earnings of $177.8 million as of June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $32.4 million of working capital including $34.6 million in cash.

 

The Company assesses its liquidity in terms of its ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet current and future needs. Its expected primary uses of cash on a short and long-term basis are for working capital requirements, capital expenditures, capital contributions to its joint ventures and other general corporate services. The Company’s primary working capital requirements are for project execution activities including purchases of materials, services and payroll which fluctuate during the year, driven primarily by the timing and extent of activities required on new and existing projects. The Company’s management expects that future operating losses and negative operating cash flows may increase from historical levels because of additional costs and expenses related to the development of its technology and the development of market and strategic relationships with other businesses and customers. 

 

With the consummation of the Business Combination and Subscription Agreements, the Company received proceeds of approximately $40 million in March 2024, and $6 million in May 2024 and $12 million in June 2024, after giving effect to XPDB’s stockholder redemptions and payment of transaction expenses, which will be utilized to fund our product development, operations and growth plans.

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, the timing and extent of spending by the Company and its joint ventures to support the launch of its product and research and development efforts, the degree to which it is successful in launching new business initiatives and the cost associated with these initiatives, the timing and extent of contributions made to its joint ventures by the other partners and the growth of our business generally. In March 2024, the Company contributed $10 million in cash to the AirJoule JV, the Company has also agreed to contribute up to an additional $90 million in capital contributions to the AirJoule JV based on a business plan and annual operating budgets to be agreed between the Company and GE Vernova. In general, for the first six years, GE Vernova has the right, but not the obligation, to make capital contributions to the AirJoule JV. See Note 5 - Equity Method Investment for further information.

 

In order to finance these opportunities and associated costs, it is possible that the Company would need to raise additional financing if the proceeds realized from the Business Combination and cash received from Subscription Agreements are insufficient to support its business needs. While management believes that the proceeds realized through the Business Combination and cash received from Subscription Agreements will be sufficient to meet its currently contemplated business needs, management cannot assure you that this will be the case. If additional financing is required by us from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to it or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms when needed, its product development business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
