FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the Euro and the Indian Rupee. Assets and liabilities are translated based on the exchange rates at the balance sheet date (0.9797 for the Euro, 0.0122 for the Indian Rupee, and 1.1156 for the Pound Sterling as of September 30, 2022), while expense accounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period (0.9797 for the Euro, 0.0123 for the Indian Rupee, and 1.1156 for the Pound Sterling for the nine months ended September 30, 2022). Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recognized in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of an entity from all sources other than investments by owners or distributions to owners and includes foreign currency translation adjustments as described above. Transaction gains and losses are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. Transaction losses attributable to foreign exchange were $595 and $836 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Transaction losses attributable to foreign exchange were $16 and $124 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

    2022     2021     2022     2021  
    For The Three Months Ended     For The Nine Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,

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 goods or services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $13,723 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, 2022. The Company expects to satisfy $8,823 of its remaining performance obligations for network fees, charging services, warranty revenue, product sales, and other revenues and recognize the revenue within the next twelve months.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized $333 and $824, respectively, of revenues related to network fees and warranty contracts, which were included in deferred revenues as of December 31, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

 

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 months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $83 and $55, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $283 and $280, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders 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.

 

The following common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

 

    2022     2021  
    For the Three and Nine Months  
    Ended September 30,  
    2022     2021  
Warrants     3,156,861       3,293,079  
Options     1,055,217       983,110  
Unvested restricted common stock     -       53,755  
Total potentially dilutive shares     4,212,078       4,329,944
