2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Since the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed in this note.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $25,318 and working capital of $40,491. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $31,959 and $52,666, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company used cash in operating activities of $28,524. The Company has not yet achieved profitability and expects to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. Absent a near-term capital infusion or significant improvement in cash flow provided by operations, the Company expects that its current cash and net working capital resources will be insufficient to fund future operations, and the need for additional funding to support its planned operations raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the time the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

Historically, the Company has been able to raise funds to support its business operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold an aggregate of 681,330 shares of common stock under an “at-the-market” equity offering program for aggregate gross proceeds of $909, less issuance costs of $18, which were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. The Company is required to file a Form S-1 to issue new equity and raise proceeds in the future.

 

Management is actively evaluating strategic alternatives, including additional cost-reduction initiatives, asset sales, and potential restructuring or fundraising opportunities. However, there can be no assurance that any of these efforts will result in additional liquidity or resolve the Company’s current financial challenges. 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. Lastly, there can be no assurances that these other initiatives will be achieved. Therefore, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about Company’s ability to continue as a going concern beyond one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and their carrying amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

The Company had equity securities of $0 and $13,630 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These securities consist primarily of mutual funds and were used for working capital needs.

 

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. The Company carries all “available-for-sale securities” at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in stockholders’ equity until disposition or maturity. The Company carries all “trading securities” at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, recorded in other income in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific-identification method. The marketable securities were all classified as trading as of December 31, 2024. Marketable securities are stated at fair value.

 

The below table provides supplemental information related to marketable securities:

 

    2025     2024     2025     2024  
    For the Three Months Ended     For the Six Months Ended

Unrealized gains recognized during the reporting period on trading securities still held at the reporting date   $ -     $ 9     $ -     $ 49  

 

INVENTORY

 

As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s inventory was comprised of $20,029 of finished goods that were available for sale and $12,677 of raw material and work in process. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s inventory was comprised of $18,659 of finished goods that were available for sale and $19,621 of raw material and work in process. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s reserve for slow-moving or excess inventory was $4,129 and $3,129, respectively.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded loss on disposals of $5,588 and $5,762, respectively. The write-offs were comprised of the following: Certain installed chargers that were determined to be not performing to specifications of $4,030 and the write-off of older, incomplete charger deployment projects of $1,732.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a net loss on disposals of $71 and $39, respectively. The loss on disposals during the 2024 period were due to the normal course of business.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

Cumulative translation adjustments attributable to foreign exchange were $(679) and $(400) for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cumulative translation adjustments attributable to foreign exchange were $2,072 and $(1,637) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Foreign currency transactions losses were $1,522 and $1,781 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Foreign currency transactions losses were $15 and $45 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Foreign currency transactions gains and losses are included within general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the following:

 

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.

 

Charging service revenue – Revenue is recognized at the point when a particular charging session is completed.

 

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. Network fees are billed annually.

 

Warranty – Extended warranties represent 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. The Company also sells third-party warranties which are recorded at the point in time of sale. Furthermore, standard warranties are generally not accounted for as separate performance obligations as warranties do not provide a service in addition to the assurance that the charging stations will function as expected.

 

Grant and fees rebate – Grants and rebates related to EV charging stations and their installation are deferred and recognized as revenue in a manner consistent with the related depreciation expense of the related asset over the useful life of the charging station.

 

Car-sharing services – Relate to revenues and expenses from electric vehicle-sharing and electric vehicle charging services provided to apartments, offices and hotels for use by their residents and guests and are recognized in accordance with ASC 842. Revenue is recognized over the duration of the rental agreement which are short term in nature.

 

Other – Primarily related to transaction fees recognized at a point in time. Other revenues are also comprised of sales related to alternative fuel credits.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED

 

The following table summarizes our revenue recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations by geographical area:

 

    2025     2024     2025     2024  
    For The Three Months Ended     For The Six Months Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2025     2024     2025     2024  
Revenues by Geographical Area                                
U.S.A.   $ 18,008     $ 24,127     $ 30,270     $ 51,820  
International     10,659       9,135       19,151       19,010  
Total Revenue   $ 28,667     $ 33,262     $ 49,421     $ 70,830  

 

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. Payment terms are generally thirty days. 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. Consideration promised in the Company’s contracts with customers is variable due to anticipated reductions, such as sales returns, and miscellaneous claims from customers. The Company estimates the most likely amount it will be entitled to receive and records an anticipated reduction against revenues at the time revenues are recognized.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from numerous contracts with multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling price of the product or service underlying each performance obligation. The standalone selling price represents the observable price for which the Company would sell the product or service to a customer on a standalone basis (i.e., not sold as a bundled sale with any other products or services). The allocation of transaction price among separate performance obligations may impact the timing of revenue recognition but will not change the total revenue recognized on the contract.

 

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $28,966 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 June 30, 2025. The Company expects to satisfy $19,153 of its remaining performance obligations for network fees, warranty revenue, product sales, and other and recognize the revenue within the next twelve months.

 

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to expense costs to obtain contracts at the time the liability is incurred when the expected amortization period is one year or less. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods as specified by ASC 606-10-50-12A.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $2,529 and $5,390 of revenues, respectively, related to network fees and warranty contracts, which were included in deferred revenues as of December 31, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. 

 

Grants, rebates and alternative fuel credits pertaining to revenues and periodic expenses which are accounted for by analogy to International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance 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.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $32 and $52, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $192 and $635, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $303 and $31, respectively, of revenue related to alternative fuel credits. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $351 and $75, respectively, of revenue related to alternative fuel credits.

 

Car-sharing services relate to revenues and expenses from electric vehicle-sharing and electric vehicle charging services provided to apartments, offices and hotels for use by their residents and guests and are recognized in accordance with ASC 842. The Company provides electric vehicles to be available for use and the contracting locations are invoiced on a monthly or quarterly basis under the terms of the agreement signed with each respective customer. Revenue is also derived from parties who schedule use of electric vehicles that are not provided specifically for exclusive use to a particular customer under an ongoing existing contractual arrangement. The Company accounts for such rentals as operating leases. The lease terms are included in the Company’s contracts, and the determination of whether the Company’s contracts contain leases generally does not require significant assumptions or judgments. The Company’s lease revenues do not include material amounts of variable payments. The Company does not provide an option for the lessee to purchase the rented vehicle at the end of the lease.

 

The Company is unsure of when the customer will return the vehicles. As such, the Company does not know how much the customer will owe upon return of the vehicle and, therefore, cannot provide a maturity analysis of future lease payments. The Company’s vehicles are generally rented for short periods of time (generally a few hours). Lessees do not provide residual value guarantees on rented vehicles. The Company’s vehicles are typically rented for the majority of the time that the Company owns or leases the underlying vehicle.

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: 

 

    For the Three and Six Months Ended  
    June 30,  
    2025     2024  
Warrants     1,150,152       1,150,152  
Options     558,359       908,162  
Restricted stock units     1,691,148       -  
Total potentially dilutive shares     3,399,659       2,058,314  

 

CONCENTRATIONS

 

As of June 30, 2025, accounts payable to one significant vendor represented 11% of total accounts payable.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, sales to a significant customer represented 16% of total revenue.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, sales to a significant customer represented 20% of total revenue.

 

There were no revenue concentrations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

In August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-05, “Business Combinations - Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement,” under which an entity that qualifies as either a joint venture or a corporate joint venture as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) master glossary is required to apply a new basis of accounting upon the formation of the joint venture. Specifically, the ASU provides that a joint venture or a corporate joint venture (collectively, “joint ventures”) must initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date. The amendments are effective for all joint ventures within the ASU’s scope that are formed on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted in any annual or interim period as of the beginning of the related fiscal year. The adoption of this pronouncement on January 1, 2025 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements.” For entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements and for entities required to file or furnish financial statements with or to the SEC in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures that reflect how operations and related tax risks, as well as how tax planning and operational opportunities, affect the tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual reporting beginning January 1, 2025 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact, however, additional disclosures will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2026.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires additional disclosures in the footnotes that disaggregate certain expenses presented on the face of the income statement. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2027 and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. Retrospective application to comparative periods is optional, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of adopting this new accounting guidance.
