2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Since the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed in this note.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the Euro, Indian Rupee, and Pound Sterling. Assets and liabilities are translated based on the exchange rates at the balance sheet date (1.0846 for the Euro, 0.1219 for the Indian Rupee, and 1.2634 for the Pound Sterling as of June 30, 2023), while expense accounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period (1.0763 for the Euro, 0.0122 for the Indian Rupee, and 1.2538 for the Pound Sterling for the six months ended June 30, 2023). During the six months ended June 30, 2022, expense accounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period (1.0554 for the Euro, 0.0127 for the Indian Rupee, and 1.2281 for the Pound Sterling). 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) gains attributable to foreign exchange were $(1,026) and $781 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Transaction losses attributable to foreign exchange were $244 and $241 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from four different types of contracts:

 

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 – company-owned charging stations - Revenue is recognized at the point when a particular charging session is completed.
Network fees and other – 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.
Other – Other revenues primarily comprises of revenues generated from alternative fuel credits.

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 June 30, 2023, the Company had $21,602 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, 2023. The Company expects to satisfy $12,678 of its remaining performance obligations for network fees, charging services, warranty revenue, product sales, and other and recognize the revenue within the next twelve months.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $572 and $1,007 of revenues, respectively, related to network fees and warranty contracts, which were included in deferred revenues as of December 31, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

 

Grants, rebates and alternative fuel credits, 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 June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $188 and $125, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $237 and $200, respectively, related to grant and rebate revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $52 and $51 respectively, of revenue related to alternative fuel credits. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $103 and $117, respectively, of revenue related to alternative fuel credits.

 

Furthermore, car-sharing services, which are not within scope of ASC 606, pertain to revenues and expenses related to a car-sharing services agreement with the City of Los Angeles which allows customers the ability to rent electric vehicles through a subscription service. The Company recognizes revenue over the contractual period of performance of the subscription which are short term in nature. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $957 and $279, respectively, related to car-sharing services revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $1,209 and $518, respectively, related to car-sharing services revenue.

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:

 

    2023     2022  
    For the Three and Six Months Ended  
    June 30,  
    2023     2022  
Warrants     1,150,152       3,255,114  
Options     946,685       1,015,787  
Total potentially dilutive shares     2,096,837       4,270,901
