1. BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Blink Charging Co., through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Blink”), is a leading owner, operator, and provider of electric vehicle (“EV”) charging equipment and networked EV charging services. Blink offers both residential and commercial EV charging equipment, enabling EV drivers to easily recharge at various location types.
Blink’s principal line of products and services is its Blink EV charging network (the “Blink Network”) and EV charging equipment, also known as electric vehicle supply equipment (“EVSE”) and EV-related services. The Blink Network is a proprietary cloud-based software that operates, maintains, and tracks all of the Blink EV charging stations and the associated charging data. The Blink Network provides property owners, managers, and parking companies (“Property Partners”) with cloud-based services that enable the remote monitoring and management of EV charging stations, payment processing, and provides EV drivers with vital station information including station location, availability, and applicable fees.
Blink offers its Property Partners a range of business models for EV charging equipment and services. that generally fall into one of the three business models below.
● | In the Company’s comprehensive turnkey business model, Blink owns and operates the EV charging equipment, undertakes and manages the installation, maintenance and related services, and Blink keeps substantially all of the EV charging revenue. | |
● |
In the Company’s Hybrid business model, the Property Partner incurs the installation costs , while Blink provides the charging equipment. Blink operates and manages the EV charging station and provides connectivity of the charging station to the Blink Network.. As a result, Blink shares a greater portion of the EV charging revenue with the Property Partner than under the turnkey mode above. | |
● | In the Company’s Host owned business model, the Property Partner purchases, owns and manages the Blink EV charging station, incurs the installation costs of the equipment, while Blink provides site recommendations, connectivity to the Blink Network and optional maintenance services, and the Property Partner keeps substantially all of the EV charging revenue. |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2018 and for the three and nine months then ended. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2018 or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K on April 17, 2018, as amended on May 10, 2018.
Effective August 29, 2017, pursuant to authority granted by the stockholders of the Company, the Company implemented a 1-for-50 reverse split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Split”). The number of authorized shares remains unchanged. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Since the date of the Annual Report, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed below.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had cash, working capital and an accumulated deficit of $21,304,407, $16,955,916 and $157,599,908, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company had a net loss of $2,135,933 and $1,164,630, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION - CONTINUED
On February 16, 2018, the Company closed its underwritten public offering of an aggregate 4,353,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,706,000 shares of common stock at a combined public offering price of $4.25 per unit comprised of one share and two warrants. The Public Offering resulted in $18,504,320 and $14,880,815 of gross and net proceeds, respectively, including underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses of $3,623,505, which was recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Furthermore, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,033,660 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants at an exercise price of $4.25 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $17,143,056. See Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity – Public Offering and Warrant Issuances for additional details.
The Company believes its current cash on hand is sufficient to meet its operating and capital requirements for at least twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements. Thereafter, the Company may need to raise further capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities or other debt instruments to support its future operations. The Company’s operating needs include the planned costs to operate its business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures. The Company’s future capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on many factors, including the Company’s ability to successfully commercialize its products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement its product and service offerings.
There is also no assurance that the amount of funds the Company might raise will enable the Company to complete its development initiatives or attain profitable operations. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, it may have to curtail its development, marketing and promotional activities, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately, the Company could be forced to discontinue its operations and liquidate.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has cash on deposits in several financial institutions which, at times, may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of its financial institutions. The Company reduces its credit risk by placing its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC insurance limits of $20,667,432 of which $18,024,063 was held in a money market account at a financial institution at September 30, 2018. No funds were held in money market accounts at December 31, 2017.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.
The Company adopted ASC 606 for all applicable contracts using the modified retrospective method, which would have required a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of the date of adoption. As a result, a cumulative-effect adjustment was not required.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
REVENUE RECOGNITION - CONTINUED
The Company recognizes revenue primarily from five different types of contracts:
● | Charging service revenue – company-owned charging stations - Revenue is recognized at the point when a particular charging session is completed. | |
● | Product sales – Revenue is recognized at the point where the customer obtains control of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which generally is at the time it ships the product to the customer. | |
● | Network fees – Represents a stand-ready obligation whereby the Company is obligated to perform over a period of time and, as a result, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. | |
● | Warranty revenue – Represents a stand-ready obligation whereby the Company is obligated to perform over a period of time and, as a result, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. | |
● | Other – Primarily related to charging service revenue from non-company-owned charging stations. Revenue is recognized at the point when a particular charging session is completed. |
The following table summarizes our revenue recognized under ASC 606 in our condensed consolidated statements of operations:

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $307,134 related to contract liabilities where performance obligations have not yet been satisfied, which has been included within deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018. The Company expects to satisfy its remaining performance obligations for network fees and warranty revenue and recognize the revenue within the next twelve months.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $67,511 and $237,511, respectively, of revenues related to network fees, warranty contracts, and product sales, which was included in deferred revenues as of December 31, 2017.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. The Company has elected not to disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, as permitted under guidance.

REVENUE RECOGNITION - CONTINUED
Grants and rebates, which are not within the scope of ASC 606, pertaining to revenues and periodic expenses are recognized as income when the related revenue and/or periodic expense are recorded. Grants and rebates related to EV charging stations and their installation are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with the related depreciation expense of the related asset over their useful lives over the useful life of the charging station. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $6,724 and $68,062, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $14,978 and $93,798, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. At September 30, 2018 and December 31,2017, $112,780 and $181,913 of deferred grant and rebate revenue to be amortized.
CONCENTRATIONS
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, one customer accounted for 11% and less than 10% of revenues respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, revenues generated from one customer represented approximately 10% of the Company’s total revenue. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, accounts receivable from this same customer amounted to less 10% of total accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, accounts receivable from another significant customer were approximately 44% and 32%, respectively, of total accounts receivable.
LEASES
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company is also required to recognize and measure new leases at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption using a modified retrospective approach, with certain practical expedients available.
The Company early adopted Accounting Standard Codification No. (“ASC”) 842 effective July 1, 2018 and elected to apply the available practical expedients and implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. The standard had an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets but did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations or condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while the Company’s accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact in prior periods of the current year and prior year comparative periods and as a result, a cumulative-effect adjustment was not required.
The Company provides charging services at designated locations on the hosts property at which the charging station is situated. In consideration thereof, the host shares in the monthly revenue generated by the charging station on percentage basis. As the charging station monthly revenue generated is variable, the host’s monthly revenue derived there from is similarly variable. In accordance with ASC 842 the hosts’ portion of revenue is variable and not predicated on an index or rate, as defined, these payments are not within the scope ASC 842.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and non-employees, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company computes the fair value of equity-classified warrants and options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the treasury stock or if converted method), if dilutive.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company calculated the potential diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, as follows:

RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported results of operations or loss per share.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-07, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718),” (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for nonemployee share-based payments. Currently, the accounting requirements for nonemployee and employee share-based payment transactions are significantly different. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. This ASU supersedes Subtopic 505-50, Equity — Equity-Based Payments to Nonemployees. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than a company’s adoption date of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company early adopted ASU 2018-07 effective April 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases,” (“ASU 2018-10”). The amendments in ASU 2018-10 are to address stakeholders’ questions about how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in ASC 842. The clarifications address the rate implicit in the lease, impairment of the net investment in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments. The amendments in ASC Topic 842 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASU 2018-10, along with ASC 842, effective July 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2018-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - CONTINUED
In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements,” (“ASU 2018-11”). The amendments in ASU 2018-11 related to transition relief on comparative reporting at adoption affect all entities with lease contracts that choose the additional transition method and separating components of a contract affect only lessors whose lease contracts qualify for the practical expedient. The amendments in ASC Topic 842 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASU 2018-11, along with ASC 842, effective July 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2018-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2018-13 and its impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Stock options granted under the 2018 Plan may be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options, within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, except that stock options granted to outside directors and any consultants or advisers providing services to the Company or an affiliate shall in all cases be non-qualified stock options.

The 2018 Plan is to be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, which shall have discretion over the awards and grants thereunder.

LITIGATION AND DISPUTES - CONTINUED
From time to time, the Company is a defendant or plaintiff in various legal actions that arise in the normal course of business.
In July 2017, the Company was served with a complaint by Zwick and Banyai PLLC and Jack Zwick for breach of a written agreement and unjust enrichment for failure to pay invoices in the aggregate amount of $53,069 for services rendered, plus interest and costs. The plaintiffs’ complaint was subsequently amended in February 2018. In June 2018, the court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint, although the plaintiffs voluntarily withdrew certain counts in the amended complaint. In July 2018, the Company filed its answer and affirmative defense to the amended complaint denying liability. As of October 26, 2018, Company updated its affirmative defenses in its answer and the parties are proceeding with discovery. The Company intends to continue to defend this case vigorously.
350 Green, LLC
350 Green lawsuits relate solely to alleged pre-acquisition unpaid debts of 350 Green. Also, there are other unpaid creditors, aside from those noted above, that claim to be owed certain amounts for pre-acquisition work done on behalf of 350 Green solely, that potentially could file lawsuits at some point in the future.
In May 2013, JNS Power & Control Systems, Inc. (“JNS”) filed a complaint against 350 Green, LLC, a former subsidiary of the Company, alleging claims for breach of contract, specific performance and indemnity. The lawsuit arose out of an asset purchase agreement from April 2013 between JNS and 350 Green, under which JNS agreed to purchase car chargers and related assets from 350 Green. Following court judgments in favor of JNS on its claim for specific performance, in April 2016, JNS amended its complaint to add the Company, alleging an unspecified amount of lost revenues from the car chargers, among other matters, caused by the defendants. In February 2018, the parties entered into an agreement to settle the litigation. The Company purchased back the EV chargers it previously sold to JNS for: (a) shares of Common Stock worth $600,000 with a price per share equal to $4.25 (the price per share of the Offering); (b) $50,000 cash payment within ten days of the closing of the Offering; and (c) $100,000 cash payment within six months following the closing of the Offering. The Offering closed on February 16, 2018. The Company issued 141,176 shares on March 16, 2018. The Company made the $50,000 payment on March 16, 2018. JNS filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit without prejudice on March 23, 2018 and the judge granted the motion on March 26, 2018. On March 16, 2018, the Company issued 23,529 shares of Common Stock to JNS to be held in escrow as security for the $100,000 payment. On August 2, 2018, the Company paid the $100,000 to JNS and the 23,529 shares of common stock were returned to the Company and were subsequently cancelled. See Note 8 – Stockholder’s Equity – Common Stock for additional details. Concomitantly, JNS filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice. On March 26, 2018, the Court dismissed the case without prejudice and with leave to reinstate by November 1, 2018. In August 2018, the Company satisfied the last of its payment obligations to JNS, however, on October 29, 2018, JNS filed a motion to extend the date for reinstatement to January 11, 2019 to allow additional time to lift restrictions on the stock it received in the asset purchase. On November 1, 2018, the Court granted the motion.
On March 26, 2018, final judgment has been reached relating to the Assignment for the Benefit of the Creditors, whereby all remaining assets of 350 Green are abandoned to their respective property owners where the charging stations have been installed, thus on March 26, 2018, the assignment proceeding has closed.
Concurrent with the closing of the public offering, the Company was to pay the former principals of 350 Green LLC $25,000 in installment debt and $50,000 within 60 days thereafter in settlement of a $360,000 debt (inclusive of imputed interest) and the return of 8,065 shares of the Company’s common stock by the former principals of 350 Green LLC, in accordance with a Settlement Agreement between the parties dated August 21, 2015, that would have resulted in a gain of $285,000. As of the date of filing, this payment has not been made, the aforementioned gain has not been recognized, and the common shares have not been returned by the former principals of 350 Green LLC.

Overview
We are a leading owner, operator, and provider of electric vehicle (“EV”) charging equipment and networked EV charging services. We offer both residential and commercial EV charging equipment, enabling EV drivers to easily recharge at various location types.
Our principal line of products and services is our Blink EV charging network (the “Blink Network”) and EV charging equipment, also known as electric vehicle supply equipment (“E.V.S.E.”), and EV related services. Our Blink Network is proprietary cloud-based software that operates, maintains, and tracks all of the Blink EV charging stations and the associated charging data. The Blink Network provides property owners, managers, and parking companies, who we refer to as our Property Partners, with cloud-based services that enable the remote monitoring and management of EV charging stations, payment processing, and provide EV drivers with vital station information including station location, availability, and applicable fees.
We offer our Property Partners a range of business models for EV charging equipment and services. that generally fall into one of the three business models below.
● | In our comprehensive turnkey business model, we own and operate the EV charging equipment, undertakes and manages the installation, maintenance and related services, and we keep substantially all of the EV charging revenue. | |
● | In our Hybrid business model, the Property Partner incurs installation costs, while we provide the EV charging equipment. We operate and manage the EV charging station and provide connectivity of the charging station to the Blink Network. As a result, we share a greater portion of the EV charging revenue with the Property Partner than under the turnkey business model above. | |
● | In our Host owned business model, the Property Partner purchases, owns and manages the Blink EV charging station incurs the installation costs of the equipment while we provide site recommendations, connectivity to the Blink Network and optional maintenance services, and the Property Partner keeps substantially all of the EV charging revenue. |
We have strategic partnerships across numerous transit/destination locations, including airports, auto dealers, healthcare/medical, hotels, mixed-use, municipal locations, multifamily residential and condos, parks and recreation areas, parking lots, religious institutions, restaurants, retailers, schools and universities, stadiums, supermarkets, transportation hubs, and workplace locations. As of October 24, 2018, what have deployed approximately 14,606 charging stations, of which 6,919 are operating on the Blink network: 5.090 are Level 2 commercial charging stations, 107 are DC Fast Charging EV stations and 1,722 are residential charging units. Of the remaining 7,687 charging stations, 504 are Level 2 charging stations operating on other networks and approximately 7,183 are non-networked, residential charging stations. As of October 24, 2018, we have 412 charging stations that have been sold and shipped to our Property Partners that are awaiting installation and activation.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 Compared With Three Months Ended September 30, 2017
Revenues
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $60,055, or 10%, to $546,844 compared to $606,899 during the three months ended September 30, 2017 due to lower sales volume during the 2018 period.
Charging service revenue from Company-owned charging stations was $320,388 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $295,202 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $25,186, or 9.0%, primarily due a greater number of charging stations in the network as compared to the same 2017 period.
Revenue from product sales was $102,958 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $157,264 during the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $54,306 or 35%. This decrease was attributable to a lower volume of commercial units and parts sales as compared to the 2017 period.
Network fee revenues were $55,540 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $59,604 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $4,064 or 7%. The decrease was attributable to retroactive billing of network fees in 2017.
Warranty revenues were $25,099 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $36,484 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $11,385 or 31%. The decrease is primarily attributable to a property partners of host owned chargers not renewing their warranty contracts.
Grant and rebate revenue was $6,724 during the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $14,978 during the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $8,254, or 55%. Grant and rebates relating to equipment and the related installation are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with the depreciation expense of the related assets over their useful lives. The ability to secure grant revenues is typically unpredictable and, therefore, uncertain. The 2018 revenue was related to the amortization of previous years’ grants.
Other revenue decreased by $7,232 to $36,135 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $43,367 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to in host owned station charging revenue.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues primarily consists of electricity reimbursements, revenue share payments to our Property Partner hosts, the cost of charging stations sold, connectivity charges provided by telco and other networks, warranty, repairs and maintenance services, and depreciation of our installed charging stations. Cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $440,081 as compared to $305,610 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $134,471 or 44%. There is a degree of variability in our costs in relationship to our revenues from period to period. primarily due to:
(i) | Electricity reimbursements which are unique to those Property Partner host agreements which provide for such reimbursements | |
(ii) | Revenue share payments are predicated on the contractual obligation under the Property Partner agreement and the revenue generated by the applicable chargers. | |
(iii) | Cost of charging stations sold is predicated on the mix of types of charging stations and parts sold during the period | |
(iv) | Network costs are fixed in nature based on the number of chargers connected to the telco network regardless of regardless of whether the charger generates revenue. | |
(v) | Warranty and repairs and maintenance expenses are based on both the number of service cases completed during the period and the number of service cases awaiting service as of the end of the period. |
Cost of charging services-company-owned charging stations (electricity reimbursements) decreased by $87,783 to $18,823 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $106,606 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 or 82%. The decrease is attributable in 2018 to the mix of charging stations generating charging service revenues requiring electricity reimbursement.
Host provider fees increased by $36,517, or 66%, to $91,564 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $55,047 during the three months ended September 30, 2017. This increase was a result of more recently installed Company owned charging station installations having higher revenue share obligations during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same 2017 period.
Cost of product sales increased by $58,922 or 1,264% from $4,661 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to $63,583 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The cost of product sales is based on the mix of types of charging stations and parts sold. The 2018 period included a write-off of obsolete inventory of $18,558 The 2017 period included a change in estimate of chargers sold in the period that were previously thought to have a lower net realizable value than the prices that they were actually sold for.
Network costs increased by $52,077, or 239%, to $73,858 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $21,781 during the three months ended September 30, 2017. The 2017 period was understated due to over-accruals in prior 2017 periods. The 2017 period included a change in estimate as a result of prior period over accruals in 2017.
Warranty and repairs and maintenance costs increased by $91,186, or 296%, to $121,957 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $ 30,771 during the three months ended September 30, 2017. In 2017, our actual cost of fulfilling warranty obligations were less than expected as warranty work was performed by employees at a lower cost than estimated. In 2018, in order to resolve the warranty backlog issue, the Company retained third parties to perform these services at a cost more closely approximating the estimate.
Depreciation and amortization expense declined by $16,448, or 19%, to $70,296 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $86,744 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as additional underlying assets became fully depreciated during 2018.

Compensation expense was $1,080,644 (consisting of approximately $0.8 million of cash compensation and approximately $0.3 million of non-cash compensation) for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to increased payroll and related tax expenses of $507,283 to $1,136,455 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $629,172 during the 2017 period due to the hiring of additional employees and senior management.

Recruiting fees related to the hiring of additional senior management in 2018 resulted in $156,735 of fees in 2018.
General and administrative expenses increased by $244,674, or 110%, to $467,073 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. General and administrative expenses were $222,399 for the three months ended September 30, 2017.

This increase was attributable to current invoices received for $108,000 in professional services rendered in prior periods of 2018. Additionally, we incurred $83,490 in investor relations fees during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Additionally, there was an increase in software development expense of $27,263 in order to enhance our existing systems as well as increase in taxes associated with company owned charging stations of $28,765 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as a result of a higher provision during the 2018 period relating to the increase in the number of Company owned chargers.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) decreased by $93,764,700, or 101%, to income of $1,373,949 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to an expense of $92,390,751 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to 2017 items consisting of:
● | a non-cash change in fair value of derivative and other accrued liabilities of approximately $72.1 million of which approximately $43.8 million was primarily attributable to the quantity of warrants held by our Executive Chairman not being subject to our Reverse Split, which, as a result of the Reverse Split, caused them to increase in value; | |
● | The increase in other expense was also attributable to a loss on settlement reserve of $12.5 million, which was primarily related to our default on our note with JMJ, and | |
● | a non-cash loss on the settlement of liabilities for equity of approximately $7.6 million which related to exchange agreements whereby the value consideration received by the counterparty exceeded the carrying value of the liability. |
Other income in 2018 consisted primarily of a change in fair value of derivative liabilities and accrued liabilities.
Net Loss
Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $91,484,499, or 98%, to $2,135,933 as compared to $93,620,432 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in other income (expenses) of $93,764,700. Our net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $92,312,999, or 98% from $94,448,932 to $2,135,933 for the aforementioned reasons and due to a decrease in the dividend attributable to Series C Convertible Preferred shareholders of $828,500.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 Compared With Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017
Revenues
Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased by $31,689, or 2%, to $1,767,182 compared to $1,735,493 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Charging service revenue company-owned charging stations was $927,485 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $879,428 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $48,057, or 5%. The increase was attributable to a greater number of charging stations in the network as compared to the same 2017 period.
28 |
Revenue from product sales was $381,557 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $367,808 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $13,749, or 4%. This increase was attributable to a higher volume of commercial units as compared to the same 2017 period.
Network fee revenues were $168,825 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $168,334 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $491.
Warranty revenue was $89,458 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $103,188 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $13,730 or 13%. The decrease is primarily attributable to property partners of host owned charger not renewing their warranty contracts.
Grant and rebate revenue was $68,062 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $93,798 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $25,736, or 27%. Grant and rebates relating to equipment and the related installation are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with the depreciation expense of the related assets over their useful lives. The ability to secure grant revenues is typically unpredictable and, therefore, uncertain. The 2018 revenue was related to the amortization of previous years’ grants
Other revenue increased by $8,858 or 7% to $131,795 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $122,937 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in charging revenue from host-owned stations as a result of property owners converting their charging stations from host-owned to company-owned.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues primarily consists of electricity reimbursements, revenue share payments to our Property Partner hosts, the cost of charging stations sold, connectivity charges provided by telco and other networks, warranty, repairs and maintenance services, and depreciation of our installed charging stations. Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $1,317,823 as compared to $1,128,066 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $189,757 or 17%. There is a degree of variability in our costs in relationship to our revenues from period to period. primarily due to:
(vi) | Electricity reimbursements which are unique to those Property Partner host agreements which provide for such reimbursements | |
(vii) | Revenue share payments are predicated on the contractual obligation under the Property Partner agreement and the revenue generated by the applicable chargers. | |
(viii) | Cost of charging stations sold is predicated on the mix of types of charging stations and parts sold during the period | |
(ix) | Network costs are fixed in nature based on the number of chargers connected to the telco network regardless of regardless of whether the charger generates revenue. | |
(x) | Warranty and repairs and maintenance expenses are based on both the number of service cases completed during the period and the number of service cases awaiting service as of the end of the period. |
Cost of charging services-company-owned charging stations (electricity reimbursements) decreased by $29,640 to $141,644 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $171,284 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 or 17%. The decrease is attributable in 2018 to the mix of charging stations generating charging service revenues requiring electricity reimbursement.
Host provider fees increased by $94,864, or 47%, to $297,296 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $202,432 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. This increase was a result of more recently installed Company owned charging station installations having higher revenue share obligations during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same 2017 period.
Cost of product sales decreased by $79,429 or 32% from $245,832 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to $166,403 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The cost of product sales is based on the mix of types of charging stations and parts sold.
Network costs decreased by $18,592, or 8%, to $218,083 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $236,675 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. This decrease was attributed to renegotiated contracts with connectivity service providers (telco).
Warranty and repairs and maintenance costs increased by $298,011, or 1,132%, to $271,686 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $(26,325) during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. In 2017, our actual cost of fulfilling warranty obligations were less than expected as warranty work was performed by employees at a lower cost than estimated. In 2018, in order to resolve the warranty backlog issue, the Company retained third parties to perform these services at a cost more closely approximating the estimate.
Depreciation and amortization expense declined by $75,457, or 25%, to $222,711 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $298,168 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as additional underlying assets became fully depreciated during 2018.
Operating Expenses
Compensation expense increased by $3,626,052, or 89%, from $4,091,681 (consisting of approximately $2.7 million of cash compensation and approximately $1.4 million of non-cash compensation) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $7,717,733 (consisting of approximately $4.0 million of cash compensation and approximately $3.7 million of non-cash compensation) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
29 |
The increase was primarily attributable to increased payroll expenses of $640,601 to $2,542,494 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $1,901,893 during the 2017 period. The increase was primarily attributable to increased payroll and related tax expenses of $655,101 to $2,761,987 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $2,106,886 during the 2017 period due to the hiring of additional employees and senior management. Furthermore, $3,106,475 of the compensation expense increase was due to stock based compensation, inclusive of payroll tax gross ups, granted to officers and directors of Company during the period. Recruiting fees related to the hiring of additional senior management in 2018 resulted in $156,735 of fees in 2018. This increase was partially offset, by a decrease in commissions expense of $276,239 to $12,229 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $288,468 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as the old commissions program was terminated during the 2018 period
General and administrative expenses increased by $175,110, or 23%, from $774,482 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $949,592 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Investor relations fees increased by $189,890 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as investor relations professionals were initially retained in 2018. Furthermore, our annual shareholder meeting was held on September 7, 2018 resulting in incremental expenses specific to the period totaling $91,776. This was partially offset in a decrease in legal fees of $149,909 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the 2017 period as result of a decrease in litigation matters.
Other operating expenses increased by $314,899, or 46%, from $681,630 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $996,529 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in rent expense of $58,049 related to our move to a larger office space within Miami Beach, Florida and our leasing of additional adjacent space to our existing Phoenix, Arizona location during the three months ended September 30, 2018 offset by a decrease in storage facility rentals of $28,130. Additionally, there was an increase in second generation electric charger product development expense of $93,554 as well as an increase in personal property tax expense of $36,902 as a result of a higher provision during the 2018 period relating to the increase in the number of Company owned chargers. Past due sales, payroll taxes and related penalties resulted in an increased expense of $92,317.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) increased by $103,943,830 from an expense of $95,893,965 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to income of $8,049,865 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we settled approximately $17.8 million of obligations to JMJ with the issuance of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, which resulted in a gain of approximately $5.8 million. Additionally, we realized a decrease in the change in fair value of derivative and other accrued liabilities of $77,879,937 to $4,997,721 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $72,882,216 of expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of warrant holders exchanging their warrants for equity. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 we recorded a gain on the settlement of accounts payable of $920,352 which increased by $897,438 from $22,914 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 period. This increase was due to liabilities being settled pursuant to agreements contingent upon the closing of our public offering on February 16, 2018. These items were offset by a loss on settlement of liabilities for equity of approximately $2.1 million, a reduction in amortization of debt discount of $1,334,751, as well as a charge of $785,200 related to a contribution of capital by the Executive Chairman during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 we recorded a loss on settlement reserve of $127,941 from $12,975,588 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 a decrease of $12,847,647 this was a result of our default on obligations to JMJ of approximately $12.5 million.
Net Loss
Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $99,969,701, or 99%, to $1,164,630 as compared to $101,134,331 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in other income (expenses) of $103,931,132. Our net loss attributable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $78,277,270 or 76%, from $103,508,631 to $25,231,361 for the aforementioned reasons and due to an decrease in the dividend attributable to Series C Convertible Preferred shareholders of $607,800, as well as the deemed dividend attributable to the immediate accretion of the beneficial conversion feature related to the Series B and C Convertible Preferred Stock of $23,458,931.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
On February 16, 2018, we closed our underwritten public offering of an aggregate 4,353,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,706,000 shares of common stock at a combined public offering price of $4.25 per unit comprised of one share and two warrants. The Public Offering resulted in $18,504,320 and $14,880,815 of gross and net proceeds, respectively, including underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses of $3,623,505, which was recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Furthermore, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we issued an aggregate of 4,033,660 shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants at an exercise price of $4.25 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $17,143,056.
We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:
September 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017 | |||||||
(unaudited) | ||||||||
Cash | $ | 21,304,407 | $ | 185,151 | ||||
Working Capital (Deficiency) | $ | 16,955,916 | $ | (34,762,130 | ) | |||
Notes Payable (Gross) | $ | 337,966 | $ | 5,095,064 |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we financed our activities from proceeds derived from debt and equity financing. A significant portion of the funds raised from the sale of capital stock has been used to repay certain debt and other obligations, cover working capital needs and personnel, office expenses and various consulting and professional fees.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we used cash of $10,584,061 and $2,020,021, respectively, in operations. Our cash used for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $1,164,630, reduced by net non-cash income in the aggregate amount of $4,070,303, and by $5,349,129 of net cash used in changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. Our cash used for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $101,134,331, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $84,498,217, partially offset by $14,616,093 of net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, cash used in investing activities was $37,711, which was used to purchase charging stations and other fixed assets. Net cash used in investing activities was $12,681 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which was used to purchase charger cables.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $31,741,028, of which $15,052,973 was attributable to the net proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants in our public offering, and $17,143,055 in proceeds derived from investors in our public offering subsequently exercising their purchased warrants to purchase our common stock. Additionally, $305,000 was provided in connection with the issuances of notes payable, offset by the repayment of notes payable of $760,000 from public offering proceeds. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $2,035,866, of which $2,067,745 was provided in connection with the issuance of convertible notes payable partially offset by $38,263 of payment of future offering costs,
Through September 30, 2018, we incurred an accumulated deficit since inception of $157,599,908. As of September 30, 2018, we had cash and working capital of $21,304,407 and $16,955,916, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we had net loss of $2,135,933 and $1,164,630, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company entered into purchase commitments to acquire second generation charging stations with an aggregate value of $3,156,629. The Company has an aggregate deposit of $792,204 for these charging stations, which is included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had a remaining purchase commitment of $2,512,010, which will come due upon delivery of the charging stations.
31 |
There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from the public offering as described in our Prospectus, dated February 13, 2018. Approximately $4.4 million was to be used for the repayment of certain debt and other obligations, of which, as of March 27, 2018, approximately $3.8 million, has been paid. The remaining amount will be used as follows:
(1) | Approximately $4.0 million for the deployment of charging stations; | |
(2) | Approximately $1.0 million to expand our product offerings including but not limited to completing the research and development, as well as the launch of our next generation of EV charging equipment; | |
(3) | Approximately $3.0 million to add additional staff in the areas of finance, sales, customer support, and engineering; and | |
(4) | The remainder for working capital and other general corporate purposes |
We believe our current cash on hand is sufficient to meet our obligations, operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of this filing. Thereafter, we may need to raise further capital, through the sale of additional equity or debt securities, or other debt instruments to support our future operations. Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully commercialize our products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement our product and service offerings. There is also no assurance that the amount of funds we might raise will enable us to complete our development initiatives or attain profitable operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, we may have to curtail our development, marketing and promotional activities, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately, we could be forced to discontinue our operations and liquidate.
Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through proceeds from equity and debt financings. Although management believes that we have access to capital resources, there are currently no commitments in place for new financing at this time. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are not required to provide the information required by this Item because we are a smaller reporting company.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2018, being the end of the period covered by this Report, our management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of 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) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
32 |
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, under the heading “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” and that continued to exist as of September 30, 2018.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We continue to address the remediation of identified material weaknesses by hiring additional finance and accounting personnel, including a new Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) who we hired in July 2018. The CFO will monitor progress in this regard and make arrangements to obtain outside advisory and consulting services to assist with the SOX compliance effort.
Effective July 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires management to make significant judgments and estimates. As a result, we implemented changes to our internal controls related to lease evaluation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. These changes include updated accounting policies affected by ASC 842 as well as redesigned internal controls over financial reporting related to ASC 842 implementation. Additionally, management has expanded data gathering procedures to comply with the additional disclosure requirements and ongoing contract review requirements.
Except as stated above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended September 30, 2018 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies – Litigation and Disputes in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In addition to the information set forth under Item 1A of Part I to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, the information set forth at the beginning of Management’s Discussion and Analysis entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” and updates noted below, you should consider that there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment. These risk factors may not identify all risks that we face and our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.
We have a history of significant losses, and if we do not achieve and sustain profitability, our financial condition could suffer.
We have experienced significant net losses, and we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses of approximately $2,135,933 and $93,620,432 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and incurred net losses of approximately $1,164,630 and incurred a net loss of approximately $101,134,331 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our accumulated deficit at September 30, 2018 is $157,599,908.
Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $91,484,499, or 98%, to $2,135,933 as compared to $93,620,432 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in other income (expenses) of $93,764,700. Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased by $99,969,701, or 99%, to $1,164,630 as compared to $101,134,331 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in other income (expenses) of $103,931,132.
If our revenue grows more slowly than we anticipate, or if our operating expenses are higher than we expect, we may not be able to achieve profitability and our financial condition could suffer. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Whether we can achieve cash flow levels sufficient to support our operations cannot be accurately predicted. Unless such cash flow levels are attained, we may need to borrow additional funds or sell debt or equity securities, or some combination of both, to provide funding for our operations. Such additional funding may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
We have a significant number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of certain outstanding options, warrants and convertible preferred stock, and the issuance of such shares upon exercise or conversion will have a significant dilutive impact on our stockholders. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock following the expiration of lock-ups may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the issuance of additional shares will dilute all other stockholders.
As of November 9, 2018, there are outstanding warrants and stock options to purchase 6,852,861 and 58,968 shares of our common stock, respectively.
As of November 9, 2018, there are 1,747,756 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our outstanding shares of Series D preferred stock.
In addition, our articles of incorporation, as amended, permits the issuance of up to approximately 463 million additional shares of common stock. Thus, we have the ability to issue a substantial number of shares of common stock in the future, which would dilute the percentage ownership held by our stockholders.
We and our officers, directors and certain stockholders have agreed, subject to customary exceptions, not to, without the prior written consent of Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC, the representative of the underwriters in our February 2018 public offering, during the period ending on August 15, 2018 (180 days from February 16, 2018, the closing date of the public offering) in the case of our company and our directors and officers, and up to November 13, 2018 (270 days from February 16, 2018) in the case of certain stockholders, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of shares of our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement with respect to the registration of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any other securities of our company or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.
34 |
After the lock-up agreements with certain stockholders expire: (i) on November 13, 2018 (270 days from February 16, 2018), unless waived earlier by the representative, up to 8,367,879 shares that had been locked up will be eligible for future sale in the public market. After the lock-up agreements with our directors and officers, Horton Capital and JMJ expire on August 15, 2018 (180 days from February 16, 2018), unless waived earlier by the representative, up to 7,707,819 shares (including shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our series D preferred stock) that had been locked up will be eligible for future sale in the public market. Sales of a significant number of these shares of common stock in the public market could reduce the market price of the common stock.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
On March 16, 2018, we issued 443,542 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $1,284,271 at issuance date in satisfaction of liabilities.
