CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INDUSTRY DATA

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements in this Quarterly Report, other than statements of historical fact, are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions, including, without limitation, any projections regarding the markets where we operate, any statements of the plans and objectives of our management for future operations, any statements concerning proposed new products or services, any statements regarding expected capital expenditures, any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. All forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report are made as of the date hereof and are based on information available to us as of such date. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “should,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “potential,” “forecasts,” “continue,” or other forms of these words or similar words or expressions, or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations or any of the forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Actual results will likely differ, and could differ materially, from those projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements. Prospective investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on any such forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

 

●

We operate in an extremely competitive industry and are subject to pricing pressures.

●

We have a history of losses and our audited financial statements include a statement that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As our costs increase, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve and sustain profitability.

●

Our business and future growth depends on the needs and success of our customers, and we have substantial customer concentration.

●

We may not be able to successfully execute on our anticipated growth strategies and manage the expansion of our business operations effectively.

●

We may fail to expand our sales and distribution channels and increase market penetration into target markets.

●

We are dependent on third-party manufacturers and suppliers, including suppliers located outside of the United States, and our operating results could be adversely affected by changes in the cost and availability of raw materials, as well as increases in costs, disruption of supply, or shortage of any of our battery components, such as electronic and mechanical parts, or raw materials used in the production of such parts.

●

Changes in the economic conditions or political climate abroad could negatively impact our supply chain or result in tariffs that would apply to our imported goods, which would impact our operating margins.

●

We may not be able to successfully onshore our semi-automated pack assembly in a timely manner or at all, or scale to mass production.

●

We could face potential product liability claims relating to our products, which could result in significant costs and liabilities, which would reduce our profitability.

●

Our operations expose us to litigation, tax, environmental, and other legal compliance risks.

●

Our failure to introduce new products and product enhancements and broad market acceptance of new technologies introduced by our competitors could adversely affect our business.

●

We may not be able to successfully enter into new partnerships which may negatively impact the development of our home energy storage products and subsequent sales growth. There are significantly larger companies within the home energy storage market and we may also lack sufficient resources to bring a commercially viable home energy product to market and successfully market and sell to end users.

●

Quality problems with our products could harm our reputation and erode our competitive position.

 

 i

 

 

●

We may need to raise additional capital to support our business, and our ability to raise necessary capital in the future may be limited and our stockholders may be diluted by future securities offerings.

●

We are an “emerging growth company” and elect to comply with certain reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, which could make our securities less attractive to investors.

 

All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Our actual results will likely differ, and may differ materially, from anticipated results. Financial estimates are subject to change and are not intended to be relied upon as predictions of future operating results, and we assume no obligation to update or disclose revisions to those estimates. If we do update or correct one or more forward-looking statements, investors and others should not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections.

 

This report includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from industry publications and research, surveys, and studies conducted by third parties as well as our own estimates. All of the market data used in this report involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such data. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys, and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. Our estimates of the potential market opportunities for our products include several key assumptions based on our industry knowledge, industry publications, third-party research, and other surveys, which may be based on a small sample size and may fail to accurately reflect market opportunities. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, no independent source has verified such assumptions.

 

Notice Regarding Trademarks

 

This Quarterly Report includes trademarks, tradenames, and service marks that are our property or the property of others. Solely for convenience, such trademarks and tradenames sometimes appear without any “™” or “®” symbol. However, failure to include such symbols is not intended to suggest, in any way, that we will not assert our rights or the rights of any applicable licensor, to these trademarks and tradenames.

1 – Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Expion360 Inc. (formerly Yozamp Products Company, LLC dba Expion360) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in November 2021. Effective November 1, 2021, the Company converted to a C corporation. Prior to conversion, the Company was a limited liability company (the “LLC”) with an indefinite life organized in the State of Oregon in June 2016. The LLC elected to be treated as a Subchapter S corporation effective January 1, 2017. Net profits and losses of the LLC and all distributions were allocated among the members in proportion to the ownership units held. The original LLC Agreement was amended and restated on January 1, 2021 to add additional members and a non-voting class of member units. Upon conversion to a C corporation, all existing LLC members at the time of conversion were issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and became stockholders of the Company.

 

The Company designs, assembles, and distributes premium lithium iron phosphate (“LiFePO4”) batteries and supporting accessories for recreational vehicle (“RV”), marine, golf, industrial, and residential needs. LiFePO4 batteries are considered a top choice for high energy density, dependability, longevity, and safety, providing the ability to power anything, anywhere.

 

2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024.

 

Unless otherwise noted, all references to shares and stockholders in the accompanying financial statements have been restated retrospectively, to reflect the equity structure of the C corporation as of the beginning of the first period presented.

 

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

 

Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before the Company achieves sustainable revenues and profit from operations. The Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future, and the Company may need to raise additional debt or equity financing to expand its presence in the marketplace, develop new products, achieve operating efficiencies, and accomplish its long-term business plan over the next several years. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.

 

As presented in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after the date that the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are issued. However, management is working to address its cash flow challenges, including raising additional capital, managing inventory levels, identifying alternative supply chain resources, and managing operational expenses.

 

Historically, the Company’s growth has been funded through a combination of sales of equity interests, third-party debt, and working capital loans. The Company’s sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 25.9% and sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 30.4% compared to the same period in 2023, as the overall RV market experienced a severe slowdown. Through June 30, 2024, the Company distributed $4 for the settlement of fractional shares related to warrant exercises compared to receiving net proceeds of $49,777 from warrant exercises during the same period in 2023. On February 9, 2024, a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276663) was declared effective for the resale, from time to time, of up to 1,781,978 shares of the Company’s common stock by a selling stockholder in connection with an equity line of credit financing. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 395,367 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $703,339 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 433,591 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $828,492 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 15,327 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $34,561. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 26,025 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $75,811 and issued 7,936 shares of common stock for payment on accrued compensation totaling $36,029, compared to zero shares issued during the same prior year period. Management believes that these factors will contribute to achieving operating efficiency and profitability. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its objectives, including achieving operating efficiency and profitability.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements, and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. In addition, the Company has considered the potential impact of macroeconomic factors, including inflation, changes in interest rates, changes in commodity pricing, and recessionary concerns on its business and operations. Although the full impact of these factors is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company believes it has made appropriate accounting estimates and assumptions based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. However, actual results could vary materially from the estimates and assumptions that were used, which may result in material effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. The Company’s significant accounting estimates include the carrying value of accounts receivable and inventory, the depreciable lives of fixed assets, and stock-based compensation. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial statements may be materially affected.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all cash amounts which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties and all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with high-quality financial institutions located in the United States. Cash accounts are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per institution. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. Investment accounts are placed in funds consisting of US Treasury-related ultra-short paper. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2024, cash balances exceeded FDIC limits by $102,933 and investment accounts totaling $521,214 are invested in US Treasury related ultra-short paper.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, are due within a year or less, and generally do not bear any interest. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally requires no collateral. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded to reduce accounts receivable to the estimated amount that will be collected. The allowance is based upon management’s review of the accounts receivable aging and specific identification of potentially uncollectible balances. Recoveries of accounts previously written off and adjustments to the allowance for uncollectible accounts are recorded as adjustments to bad debt expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company wrote off $0 and $0 to bad debt expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company collected $0 and $800 of bad debt that had been written off previously. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023, as management believed all outstanding amounts to be fully collectible.

  

Customer Deposits

 

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had customer deposits totaling $14,094 and $17,423, respectively.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value and consists of batteries and accessories, resale items, components, and related landing costs. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had inventory that consisted of finished assemblies totaling $2,306,036 and $2,967,021, respectively, and raw materials (inventory components, parts, and packaging) totaling $1,055,796 and $858,369, respectively. The valuation of inventory includes fixed production overhead costs based on normal capacity of the assembly warehouse.

 

The Company periodically reviews its inventory for evidence of slow-moving or obsolete inventory and provides for an allowance when considered necessary. The Company determined that no such reserve was necessary as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The Company prepays for inventory purchases from foreign suppliers. Prepaid inventory totaled $719,286 and $163,948 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and included inventory in transit where title had passed to the Company but had not yet been physically received.

Vendor and Foreign Concentrations of Inventory Suppliers

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 83% and 74%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 79% and 80%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. Any adverse change in either the economic or political conditions abroad could negatively impact the Company’s supply chain. The inability to obtain product to meet sales demand could adversely affect results of operations. However, the Company has secured a secondary source for lithium iron phosphate cells used in its batteries from a supplier in Europe, enabling the Company to source materials outside of Asia in the event it becomes necessary to do so.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:

Vehicles and transportation equipment	5-7 years
Office furniture and equipment	3-7 years
Manufacturing equipment	3-10 years
Warehouse equipment	3-10 years
QA equipment	3-10 years
Tooling and molds	3-10 years

 

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives.

 

Betterments, renewals, and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the Statements of Operations.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets. The Company does not have any finance leases.

 

Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate applicable to the lease asset, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before lease commencement and exclude any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the Company’s Balance Sheet. The Company’s leases do not contain any residual value guarantees. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all its leases.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment. When events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the use and eventual disposition of the asset to assess whether or not a potential impairment exists. If the carrying value exceeds the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows, the impairment is calculated as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the estimate of its fair value. Fair value is determined primarily using the estimated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. No long-lived asset impairment was recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

 

Product Warranties

 

The Company sells the majority of its products to customers along with conditional repair or replacement warranties. The Company’s branded DC mobile chargers are warrantied for two years from the date of sale and its branded VPR 4EVER Classic and Platinum batteries are warrantied at gradually lesser levels over a 12-year period from date of sale. The Company determines its estimated liability for warranty claims based on the Company’s experience of the amount of claims actually made. Management estimates no liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 because, historically, there have been very few claims and costs for repairs or replacement parts have been nominal. It is possible that the Company’s estimate of liability for product liability claims will change in the near term.

Liability for Refunds

 

The Company does not have a formal return policy but does accept returns under its warranty policies. Returns have historically been minimal. No refund liability was recognized as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Revenue is recorded net of this amount. Any returns of discontinued product are not added back to inventory and therefore related costs are nominal and not recorded as an asset.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of products consisting primarily of batteries and accessories. The Company recognizes revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery to the customer, as that is when the customer obtains control of the promised goods and the Company’s performance obligation is considered satisfied. As such, accounts receivable is recorded at the time of shipment or will call, when the Company’s right to the consideration becomes unconditional and the Company determines there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.

 

Concentration of Major Customers

 

A customer is considered a major customer when net revenue attributable to the customer exceeds 10% of total revenue for the period or outstanding receivable balances exceed 10% of total receivables.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $232,513, comprising approximately 19% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $284,571, comprising approximately 12% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024. Accounts receivable from two additional customers totaled $134,362, representing approximately 38% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $504,334, comprising approximately 30% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $708,042, comprising approximately 22% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. Accounts receivable from one additional customer totaled $63,388, representing approximately 16% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the Statement of Operations as “Net sales” and totaled $29,199 and $15,365 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $51,889 and $24,898 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Shipping and handling costs for shipping product to customers totaled $59,651 and $48,549 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $102,694 and $91,757 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are classified in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense totaled $228,308 and $297,673 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $468,384 and $452,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

  

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs charged to expense amounted to $84,663 and $94,078 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $160,165 and $171,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a C corporation and its deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of exiting assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted market prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term revolving loans, stockholder promissory notes, and long-term debt. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term revolving loans approximates their respective carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of the stockholder promissory notes, convertible notes, and long-term debt approximates their respective carrying values because the interest rate approximates market rates available to the Company for similar obligations with the same maturities.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company currently operates in one reportable segment. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the CODM.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

The basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings or loss per share adjusts the basic earnings or loss per share for the potentially dilutive impact of securities (e.g., options and warrants).

 

We calculate basic and diluted net loss per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. In periods of a net loss position, basic and diluted weighted average common shares are the same. For the diluted earnings per share calculation, we adjust the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to include dilutive stock options, warrants, unvested restricted stock units and shares associated with the conversion of any convertible notes or preferred stock, when applicable. We use the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of convertible notes and convertible preferred stock on diluted net loss per share.

 

The following shows the amounts used in computing net loss per share:

		Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Month Ended June 30,
		2024				2023				2024				2023
Net loss		$	(2,220,232	)		$	(1,478,788	)		$	(4,413,172	)		$	(3,456,066	)
Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic and diluted			7,357,300				6,910,491				7,182,121				6,862,747
Basic and diluted net loss per share		$	(0.30	)		$	(0.21	)		$	(0.61	)		$	(0.50	)

 

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has outstanding warrants, options, and RSUs convertible into 2,010,346 and 1,914,415 shares of common stock, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of shares excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

 

 11

 

		As of
		June 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
Warrants			795,295				802,830
Stock Options			1,174,500				1,075,000
RSUs			40,551				36,585
			2,010,346				1,914,415

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which requires compensation costs to be recognized at grant date fair value over the requisite service period of each of the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures of awards as they occur.

 

The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding the components of the model, including risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected life. Changes to assumptions could cause significant adjustments to the valuation.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, amending “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205),” “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220),” “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480),” “Equity (Topic 505),” and “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).” The Company adopted this standard effective December 15, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

  

In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” This ASU was issued to allow reporting entities to consistently account for equity investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits and other income tax benefits. ASU 2023-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

 

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions,” which amends the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. In addition, the ASU introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities. The Company adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

 

Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Yet Adopted

 

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, “Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements,” to address suggestions received from stakeholders. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

 

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which adds an illustrative example to demonstrate how to apply the guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

 

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative,” which affects a variety of Topics in the Codification. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

On December 27, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with 3i, LP (“3i”), pursuant to which the Company sold and 3i purchased: (i) a senior unsecured convertible note issued in the aggregate principal amount of $2,750,000, with an 10.0% original issue discount and an interest rate of 9.0% per annum (the “3i Note”), (ii) up to $247,500 in newly issued shares of Common Stock (the “Interest Shares”), which may be payable, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions set forth in the 3i Note, to satisfy interest payments under the 3i Note, and (iii) 63,497 shares of Common Stock issued to 3i as consideration for its commitment to purchase the 3i Note (collectively, the “Convertible Note Financing”). The gross proceeds to the Company from the Convertible Note Financing were $2.5 million prior to the payment of legal fees and transaction expenses. The offering of securities in the Convertible Note Financing was made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-272956), which the Company filed with the SEC on June 27, 2023 and was declared effective on July 10, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has issued 26,025 shares of Common Stock for the payment of $75,811 in interest.

 

Equity Line of Credit

 

On December 27, 2023, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Tumim Stone Capital, LLC (“Tumim”), pursuant to which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Tumim, and Tumim is obligated to purchase, up to the lesser of (a) $20,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued Common Stock and (b) the Exchange Cap (as defined in the purchase agreement) (the “Equity Line of Credit”). In connection with the Equity Line of Credit, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276663) with the SEC on January 23, 2024, which was declared effective on February 9, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has sold 433,591 shares of Common Stock under the Equity Line of Credit for an aggregate amount of $828,492, of which $418,511 was used to repay a portion of the balance under the 3i Note, consisting of $365,671 to the loan principal, $32,910 to interest, and $19,929 as a redemption premium.

8 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

Operating Leases

 

The Company leases its warehouses and office space under long-term lease arrangements. None of its leases include characteristics specified in ASC 842, Leases, that require classification as financing leases, and accordingly, these leases are accounted for as operating leases. The Company does not recognize an ROU asset and lease liability for short-term leases, which have terms of 12 months or less. For longer-term lease arrangements that are recognized on the Company’s Balance Sheet, the ROU asset and lease liability are initially measured at the commencement date based upon the present values of the lease payments due under the leases.

 

The implicit interest rates of the Company’s lease arrangements are generally not readily determinable and as such, the Company applies an incremental borrowing rate, which is established based upon the information available at the lease commencement date, to determine the present value of lease payments due under the arrangement. Under ASC 842, the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) for leases must be (1) a rate of interest over a similar term, and (2) for an amount that is equal to the lease payments. The Company uses both the Federal Reserve Economic Data U.S. corporate debt effective yield and the U.S. Treasury rates adjusted for credit spread as the primary data points for purposes of determining the IBR.

 

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into two new long-term, non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office and warehouse space resulting in the Company recognizing an additional lease liability totaling of $2,348,509, representing the present value of the lease payments discounted using an effective interest rate of 8.07% and 8.86%, and corresponding ROU assets of $2,348,509. The leases expire in December 2026 and December 2028, the latter of which contains one three-year option to renew.

 

 14

 

 

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a long-term, non-cancelable operating lease agreement for office and warehouse space resulting in the Company recognizing an additional lease liability totaling of $1,268,089, representing the present value of the lease payments discounted using an effective interest rate of 7.47% and a corresponding ROU asset of $1,268,089. The lease expires in January 2028 and contains one three-year option to renew.

 

The Company has two other leases—one that expired in January 2023 and one that expires in February 2025. The leases generally provide for annual increases based on a fixed amount and generally require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and repairs.

 

The following is a summary of total lease costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

		Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
		2024				2023				2024				2023
Operating lease cost		$	187,316			$	187,315			$	373,661			$	375,344
Short-term lease costs			—				—				—				150
Variable lease costs			—				—				—				—
Sublease income			(10,753	)			(10,440	)			(21,298	)			(29,036	)
		$	176,563			$	176,875			$	352,363			$	346,458

 

The weighted-average remaining lease term was 4.07 years and 4.54 years as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The weighted average discount rate was 8.45% and 8.47%, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Operating cash flows from the operating leases totaled $129,442 and $114,110 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $255,351 and $206,217 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

  

The total lease liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2,508,738 and $2,764,089, respectively.

 

The following is a maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows of the operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2024, for years ending June 30:

			Total

Non-current lease liability				1,967,593
Total			$	2,508,738

 

Subleases

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company subleases office and warehouse space under one of its existing operating leases with similar terms as the Company’s lease agreements. Two additional leases terminated in February 2023. Because the Company is not relieved of its primary obligations under the original lease, the Company accounts for the subleases as a lessor. Sublease rental income is recorded based on the contractual rental payments which are not substantially different from recognition on a straight-line basis over the lease term and totaled $10,753 and $10,440 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $21,298 and $29,036 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, deferred income and a sublease deposit totaled $4,549 and $4,445, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the accompanying Balance Sheets.

 

The total future minimum sublease payments are $28,675, all due in the twelve months ending June 30, 2024.

 

Litigation

 

The Company may be involved from time to time in litigation or claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. While the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these claims cannot be determined with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of any such matters will not likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

SEC Investigation

 

As previously disclosed, on May 6, 2024, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents and communications concerning certain press releases. On May 23, 2024, the SEC staff notified the Company that they have concluded their investigation, and based on the information acquired to date, do not intend to recommend an enforcement action against the Company.

See Note 11 – “Stockholders’ Equity” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part IV of the Annual Report for further information regarding the 2021 Incentive Award Plan and 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

 

2021 Incentive Award Plan

 

The purpose of the Company’s 2021 Incentive Award Plan is to enhance the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing these individuals with equity ownership opportunities. Various stock-based awards may be granted under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan to eligible employees, consultants, and non-employee directors. The number of shares issued under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan is subject to limits and is adjusted annually. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate number of shares that can be issued under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan is 1,795,768, of which 1,174,500 options and 64,645 RSUs have been granted.

 

2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

The purpose of the Company’s 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan is to assist eligible employees of the Company in acquiring a stock ownership in the Company and to help such employees provide for their future security and to encourage them to remain in the employment of the Company. The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan consists of a Section 423 Component and Non-Section 423 Component. The Section 423 Component is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan and authorizes the grant of options. Options granted under the Non-Section 423 Component are granted pursuant to separate offerings containing sub-plans. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of a share on (a) the applicable grant date and (b) the applicable exercise date, or such other price as designated by the administrator, provided that in no event shall the option price be less that the per share par value price. The maximum number of shares granted under the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan may not exceed 2,500,000 shares.

 

 17

 

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected stock price volatility and the expected option term. Expected volatility was calculated based upon similar traded companies’ historical share price movements as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. Expected term is calculated based on the simplified method as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. The simplified method will continue to apply until enough historical experience is available to provide a reasonable estimate of the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is calculated based on the yield from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The Company has historically not paid dividends and have no foreseeable plans to pay dividends.

 

The Company has computed the fair value of all options granted through June 30, 2024 using the following assumptions:

Expected volatility	110.51	%
Expected dividends	None
Expected term (in years)	4.87
Risk free rate	3.35	%

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan:

			Number of Options				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)				Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)
Outstanding at beginning of period				1,177,000			$	3.75				—			$	—
Granted				—				3.45				—				—
Exercised				—				—				—				—
Forfeited				2,500				—				—				—
Outstanding at end of period				1,174,500			$	3.75				8.96			$	—
Exercisable at end of period				1,012,222			$	3.62				8.90			$	—

 

(1)

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable at beginning of period and as of June 30, 2024 is $0, as all options are out of the money.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the weighted-average grant-date fair value of the options granted to employees and non-employees was $0 and $312,873, and was $0 and $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Unrecognized compensation expense related to employees and non-employees was $687,397 as of December 31, 2023. The options granted in May 2022 were vested 100% at time of grant. The options granted in August 2023 began to vest in equal quarterly installments beginning September 30, 2023 and ending June 30, 2026. The options granted in March 2024 vested 50% at time of grant with the remaining shares vesting in 12 equal consecutive quarterly installments commencing June 30, 2024 and becoming fully vested on March 31, 2027.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s RSU activity under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan:

		Number of restricted stock awards				Weighted average grant-date fair value
Nonvested at beginning of year		$	36,585			$	179,998
Granted			15,865				72,027
Vested			(11,889	)			(54,021	)
Forfeited			—				—
Nonvested as of June 30, 2024		$	40,551			$	198,004

 

There was $35,585 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs that are expected to be recognized over a period of up to 0.16 years.

OVERVIEW

 

Expion360 focuses on the design, assembly, manufacturing, and sale of lithium iron phosphate (“LiFePO4”) batteries and supporting accessories for recreational vehicles (“RVs”), marine applications and home energy storage products with plans to expand into industrial applications. We design, assemble, and distribute high-powered, lithium battery solutions using ground-breaking concepts with a creative sales and marketing approach. We believe that our product offerings include some of the most dense and minimal-footprint batteries in the RV and marine industries. We are developing our e360 Home Energy Storage System, which we expect to change the industry in barrier price, flexibility, and integration. We are deploying multiple intellectual property strategies with research and products to sustain and scale the business. We currently have customers consisting of dealers, wholesalers, private label customers, and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) who are driving revenue and brand awareness nationally.

 

Our primary target markets are currently the RV and marine industries. We believe that we are well-positioned to capitalize on the rapid market conversion from lead-acid to lithium batteries as the primary method of power sourcing in these industries. We are also focused on expanding into the home energy storage market with the introduction of our two LiFePO4 battery storage solutions, where we aim to provide a cost-effective, low barrier of entry, flexible system for those looking to power their homes via solar energy, wind, or grid back-up. Along with RV, marine and home energy storage markets, we aim to provide additional capacities to the ever-expanding electric forklift and industrial material handling markets.

 

Our e360 product line, which is manufactured for the RV and marine industries, was launched in December 2020. The e360 product line, through its sales growth, has shown to be a preferred conversion solution for lead-acid batteries. In December 2023, we announced our entrance into the home energy storge market with our introduction of two LiFePO4 battery storage solutions that enable residential and small business customers to create their own stable micro-energy grid and lessen the impact of increasing power fluctuations and outages. We believe that our e360 Home Energy Storage System has strong revenue potential with recurring income opportunities for us and our associated sales partners.

 

Our products provide numerous advantages for various industries that are looking to migrate to lithium-based energy storage. They incorporate detailed-oriented design and engineering and strong case materials and internal and structural layouts and are backed by responsive customer service.

 

COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

 

We believe the following strengths differentiate Expion360 and create long-term, sustainable competitive advantages:

 

Superior Capacity to Lead Acid Competitors

 

Lead-acid batteries have always been the standard in RV and marine transportation vehicles. Our lithium-ion batteries offer superior capacity to our lead-acid competitors. Our batteries utilize lithium iron phosphate, and therefore, are expected to have a lifespan of approximately 12 years - three to four times the lifespan of certain lead-acid batteries and with ten times the number of charging cycles. Furthermore, we believe that our typical battery provides three times the power of the typical, lead-acid battery despite being half the weight (comparing, for example, a typical lead-acid battery like the Renogy Deep Cycle AGM, which is rated at 100Ah, to our own LFP 100Ah battery and assuming slow discharge at a 1C rate).

 

In addition, in September 2023, we introduced a new 4.5 Ah 26650 lithium-ion phosphate battery cell, which will allow us to increase energy density by over 32% compared to traditional 3.4 Ah 26650 cells. The 12 volt 450 Ah battery, our first e360 battery incorporating our 4.5 Ah cell technology, was also introduced in September 2023.

Battery Pack Flexibility

 

Our battery packs are also highly flexible, designed to be moved and used in various applications seamlessly. We plan to onshore our semi-automated pack assembly in Redmond, Oregon. The initial equipment has arrived and, subject to market conditions, we intend to complete the setup and development of additional equipment to automate the line. This should allow us to use a more flexible approach to forming and creating new battery packs. By onshoring, we expect to be able to react to market demands at a much quicker pace and increase profit levels over our competition.

 

Expansion into New Markets

 

In furtherance of our vision of stored energy, in the second quarter of 2023, we commenced deliveries of a portable power generator product, the AURA POWERCAP™ 600 (the “Aura 600”). The Aura 600 is designed to fit and convert any one of our Group 24 lithium batteries into a 600W mobile power station. The Aura 600’s proprietary patent pending design allows it to join seamlessly to 60Ah, 80Ah, and 95Ah Expion360 batteries. The Aura 600 is an exclusive fit to Expion360 batteries and is not compatible with other brands. The Aura 600 contains beneficial features and functions for a compact portable power unit, including the ability to recharge the battery from the input charge port using the included 7 Amp household charger and the ability to recharge remotely with our lightweight portable solar panel options, which are sold separately.

  

Additionally, in June 2023, we unveiled e360 SmartTalk, an innovative mobile app that allows the seamless integration and management of e360 Bluetooth-enabled LiFePO4 batteries. The technology enables users to wirelessly monitor and manage e360 batteries, providing a view of individual battery conditions and performance as well as a comprehensive view of an entire power bank consisting of multiple e360 batteries. The 48 Volt GC2 LiFePO4 battery was also introduced in June 2023 as our first e360 SmartTalk Battery for powering electric golf carts and other light electric vehicles (“LEVs”).

 

In December 2023, we entered the home energy storage market with our introduction of two LiFePO4 battery storage solutions: a wall mounted all-in-one inverter and 10kW battery and an expandable server rack style battery cabinet system. We believe our new home energy storage product line will benefit from a fast-growing battery energy storage market, which is forecasted by Markets and Markets to grow at a 26.4% CAGR to reach $17.5 billion by 2028. Further, according to Clean Energy Group, approximately 3.2 million homes in the United States have solar panels installed, but only about 6.0% of residential solar systems have battery storage. Our home energy storage products are currently under development including UL testing and certification, in addition to other requirements for various Authorities Having Jurisdiction (“AHJ”).

In January 2024, we introduced our next generation GC2 and Group 27 series LiFePO4 batteries. The new versions now include higher amp-hour options (4.0Ah and 4.5Ah cell technology) and the latest advancements in power technology features, including Expion360’s proprietary Vertical Heat Conduction™ internal heating, Bluetooth® and controller area network communication. We began taking pre-orders for the new GC2 and Group 27 batteries in the first quarter of 2024 with deliveries beginning in the second quarter of 2024.

 

Strong National Retail Customers and Distribution Channels

 

We have sales relationships with many major RV and marine retailers and plans to use what we believe is a strong reputation in the lithium battery space to create an even stronger distribution channel. Current and former members of management have used their decades of experience in the energy and RV industries to cultivate relationships with numerous retailers in the space, including Camping World, a leading national RV retailer; and Meyer Distributing, Inc., a leading national marketer and distributor of automotive and RV specialty products.

 

Home Energy Integration

 

We are currently having discussions with integration partners. This is key for the development of our home energy storage products and subsequent sales growth.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

August 2024 Public Offering

 

On August 7, 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Aegis Capital Corp., the underwriter (“Aegis”), in connection with a firm commitment underwritten public offering (such transaction, the “2024 Public Offering”) of 50,000,000 units (“Units”), each Unit consisting of one share (each, a “Share”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), two Series A warrants each to purchase one share of Common Stock (each, a “Series A Warrant”) and one Series B Warrant to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock as determined in the Series B Warrant (each, a “Series B Warrant”).

 

Purchasers of Units whose purchase would otherwise have resulted in the purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock immediately following the closing of the 2024 Public Offering were able to purchase Units consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (in lieu of one Share, each a “Pre-Funded Warrant”), two Series A Warrants and one Series B Warrant. For each Unit including a Pre-Funded Warrant (without regard to any limitation on exercise set forth therein), the number of Units including a Share were offered decreased on a one-for-one basis.

 

In addition, the Company granted Aegis a 45-day option to purchase additional Shares and/or Pre-Funded Warrants and/or Series A Warrants and/or Series B Warrants, representing up to 15% of the number of the respective securities sold in the 2024 Public Offering, solely to cover over-allotments, if any. Aegis partially exercised its over-allotment option with respect to an additional 15,000,000 Series A Warrants and 7,500,000 Series B Warrants.

  

The 2024 Public Offering closed on August 8, 2024. Of the 50,000,000 Units sold in the 2024 Public Offering, 33,402,000 were issued with Shares and 16,598,000 were issued with Pre-Funded Warrants. Subsequent to the closing of the 2024 Public Offering, 14,598,000 of the Pre-Funded Warrants have been exercised for Shares.

 

The Units were offered at a public offering price of $0.20 per Unit, resulting in total gross proceeds of $10.0 million. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the 2024 Public Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are approximately $8.7 million. The Company has used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2024 Public Offering to repay approximately $2.7 million due under the3i Note, and intends to use a portion of the net proceeds to repay an aggregate of approximately $0.7 million due to stockholders under certain unsecured promissory note agreements, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants described above, were offered by the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-280996), initially filed on July 25, 2024 with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as amended on August 2, 2024, and declared effective by the SEC on August 6, 2024.

 

Termination of Equity Line of Credit

 

In connection with the 2024 Public Offering, the Company and Tumim Stone Capital, LLC (“Tumim”) mutually agreed to terminate that certain Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated December 27, 2023 (the “Common Stock Purchase Agreement”), effective immediately upon the closing of the 2024 Public Offering.

 

Settlement with Alexander Capital L.P.

 

On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into a Settlement and Mutual Release with Alexander Capital L.P. (“Alexander”), pursuant to which the parties resolved certain disputes while not admitting any liability or wrongdoing (the “Settlement Agreement”). We agreed to (i) make a single cash payment of $100,000, (ii) issue 100,000 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) amend certain outstanding warrants to reduce the per share exercise price from $9.10 to $4.50. The shares of Common Stock were issued pursuant to an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-272956). The Settlement Agreement also contains other customary provisions, including a mutual release of claims and mutual non-disparagement provision.

 

Termination of Right of First Refusal

 

On July 1, 2024, the Company entered into a Mutual Termination Agreement with Alexander (the “Termination Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate a certain provision in that certain underwriting agreement, dated March 31, 2022, between the Company and Alexander, as representative of the underwriters, which granted Alexander a right of first refusal to act as the Company’s financial advisor, book-runner, book-running manager, manager, placement agent, or underwriter in connection with any transaction contemplated or consummated by us (the “ROFR Provision”). In exchange for the termination of the ROFR Provision, and in connection with the closing of the 2024 Public Offering, the Company made a cash payment to Alexander in the amount of $400,900.

 

New Products

 

In May 2024, we announced the launch of our Edge™ battery, which is designed for off-grid enthusiasts, bringing a new Expion360 option designed with performance, reliability, and versatility in mind. We began taking pre-orders for our Edge battery in the second quarter of 2024, with deliveries beginning in the third quarter of 2024.

Key Factors Affecting Our BUSINESS AND Results OF OPERATIONS

 

We believe there are several important factors that have impacted and will continue to impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

Consumer Demand

 

Although most of our current sales are generated through dealers, wholesalers, and OEMs focused on the RV and marine markets, ultimate demand for our products is reliant on demand from consumers. Our sales are completed on a purchase order basis, and most are without firm, long-term revenue commitments or sales arrangements, which we expect to continue going forward. Therefore, our future sales will be subject to risks and uncertainties related to end user demand.

 

Demand from end users is affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, fuel costs, overall macroeconomic conditions, inflation, interest rates, and geopolitical pressures. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the increased adoption of the RV lifestyle benefited battery suppliers. However, more recently, we have seen a rise in fuel costs, higher interest rates, and other changes in macroeconomic conditions, which have resulted in decreased end user spending decisions which is affecting our industry. These conditions may continue to have a negative effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

While RV and marine applications drive current revenues, in December 2023, we announced our plans to enter the home energy storage market with our introduction of two LiFePO4 battery storage solutions. Our e360 Home Energy Storage System aims to provide a cost-effective, low barrier of entry, flexible system for those looking to power their homes via solar energy, wind, or grid back-up. We see the vision of stored energy as a portable, moving concept, where stored energy can be transported from the home to other devices outside of the home. The success of our strategy depends on (i) our continued growth of these addressable markets in line with our expectations, and (ii) our ability to successfully enter these markets with commercially viable markets. We expect to incur significant marketing costs understanding these new markets, and researching and targeting customers in these end markets, which may not result in sales. We may lack the resources to execute our plans in home energy storage. If we fail to execute on this growth strategy in accordance with our expectations, our sales growth would be limited to the growth of existing products and existing end markets.

 

Manufacturing and Supply Chain

 

Our batteries are manufactured by multiple third-party manufacturers located in Asia, who also produce our battery cells. We then assemble and package the batteries in the United States for sale to our customers. While we do not have long-term purchase arrangements with our third-party manufacturers and our purchases are completed on a purchase order basis, we have had strong relationships with our third-party manufacturers spanning many years. Our close working relationships with our foreign suppliers, reflected in our ability to increase our purchase order volumes (qualifying us for related volume-based discounts) and to order and receive delivery of components in anticipation of required demand, has helped us moderate increased supply-related costs associated with inflation, currency fluctuations, and U.S. government tariffs imposed on our imports and to avoid potential shipment delays. We aim to maintain an appropriate level of inventory to satisfy our expected supply requirements. We believe that we could locate alternative third-party manufacturers to fulfill our needs.

 

Our third-party manufacturers source the raw materials and battery components required for the production of our batteries directly from third party suppliers that meet our approval and quality standards, and as a result, we may have limited control over the agreed pricing for these raw materials and battery components. We estimate that raw material costs account for over half of our cost of goods sold. The costs of these raw materials, particularly lithium-ion batteries, are volatile and beyond our control. Additionally, availability of the raw materials used to manufacture our products may be limited at times, resulting in higher prices and/or the need to find alternative suppliers. Our battery cell manufacturers have joint venture factories outside of Asia and have secured sourcing contracts from lithium suppliers in South America and Australia. In addition, we secured a secondary source for lithium iron phosphate cells used in our batteries from a supplier in Europe, enabling us to source materials outside of Asia in the event it becomes necessary or desirable to do so.

 

Product and Customer Mix

 

As of June 30, 2024, we sell 14 models of LiFEPO4 batteries, the Aura 600, and individual or bundled accessories for battery systems, seven of which we have released over the last 12 months. Our products are sold to different customers (i.e., dealers, wholesalers, OEMs, etc.) at differing prices and have varying costs. The average selling price and costs of goods sold for a particular product will vary with changes in the sales channel mix, volume of products sold, and the prices of such products sold relative to other products. While we work with our suppliers to limit price and supply cost increases, our products may see price increases resulting from a rise in supply costs due to currency fluctuations, inflation, and tariffs. Accessory and OEM sales typically have lower average selling prices and resulting margins, which could decrease our margins and negatively affect our growth or require us to increase the prices of our products. However, the benefits of increased sales volumes typically offset these reductions. The relative margins of products sold also impact our results of operation. As we introduce new products, we may see a change in product and sales channel mix which could result in period-to-period fluctuations in our overall gross margin.

Competition

 

We compete with both traditional lead-acid and lithium-ion battery manufacturers that primarily either import their products and/or components or manufacture their products and/or components under a private label. As we develop new products and expand into new markets, we may experience competition with a broader range of companies. These companies may have more resources than us and be able to allocate more resources to their current and future products. Our competitors may source products or components at lower costs than us, which may require us to evaluate our own costs, lower our product prices, or increase our sales volume to maintain our expected profitability levels.

 

Research and Development

 

We anticipate that additional investments in our infrastructure and research and development spending will be required to scale our operations and increase productivity, address the needs of our customers, further develop and enhance our products and services, and expand into new geographic areas and market segments.

 

New technologies are rapidly emerging in the markets where we conduct business and many new energy storage technologies have been introduced over the past several years. Our ability to achieve significant and sustained penetration of key developing markets, including the RV and marine markets, will depend upon our success in developing these and other technologies, either independently, through joint ventures, or through acquisitions, which in each case may require significant capital and commitment of resources to research and development. Accordingly, we may need to seek additional debt and equity financing to fund our research and development efforts and planned growth.

 

Certifications

 

We are completing the final requirements to obtain UL Safety Certifications on our new 12V Group 27 100Ah and 132Ah batteries, and on our 48V GC2 battery. We anticipate receiving the UL Safety Certifications, and once this milestone has been achieved, all of the batteries produced by us will have a UL Safety Certification, emphasizing our commitment to quality, safety and service for our customers.

 

COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Revenue

 

Our revenue is generated from the sale of products consisting primarily of batteries and accessories. We recognize revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. All of our sales are primarily within the United States.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Our primary cost of sales as a percentage of sales is related to our direct product and landing costs. Direct labor costs consist of payroll costs (including taxes and benefits) of employees directly engaged in assembly activities. Per full absorption cost accounting, overhead related to our cost of sales is added, consisting primarily of warehouse rent and utilities. The costs can increase or decrease based on costs of product and assembly parts (purchased at market pricing), customer supply requirements, and the amount of labor required to assemble a product, along with the allocation of fixed overhead.

  

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, legal and professional fees, and sales and marketing costs. Other costs include facility and related costs, research and development, software and information technology, and travel expenses.

 

Interest Expense and Other Expense (Income)

 

Interest expense consists of interest costs on loans with interest rates ranging from 3.75% to 10.0% and amortization of convertible note costs. The amortized convertible note costs were $167,000 and $334,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and $0 for each of the same periods in the prior year.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

We are subject to corporate federal and state income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

We have adopted the provisions in ASC 740, Income Taxes, related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which require recognition of the impact of a tax position in the financial statements if the position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination and on the technical merits of the position. We have concluded that there were no material unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

 

 24

 

 

Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense. We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our balance sheet at June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023 and did not recognize any interest and/or penalties in our statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, since there are no material unrecognized tax benefits. We do not expect any material change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to occur within the next twelve months.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following table sets forth certain operational data as a percentage of sales for the periods presented:

 

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,
		2024				2023				2024				2023

Net loss			(173.7	)			(85.7	)			(196.1	)			(106.9	)

 

Net sales

 

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $447,000, or 25.9%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Sales were $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $982,000, or 30.4%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Sales were $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

The decrease in net sales was primarily attributable to the lingering effects of the downturn in the RV market, combined with customers limiting orders in anticipation of the availability of our new products with enhanced features.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Total cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $318,000, or 25.0%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Cost of sales were $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $953,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased by 0.9% in that period.

 

Total cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $632,000, or 27.1%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Cost of sales were $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased by 3.4% in that period.

 

The percentage increase in cost of sales was primarily related to the decrease in net sales resulting in higher fixed overhead costs per unit.

 

Gross Profit

 

Our gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $129,000, or 28.4%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit was $454,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $325,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased by 0.9% for that period, from 26.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 25.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Our gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $350,000, or 39.0%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit was $898,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $548,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased by 3.4% for that period, from 27.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 24.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

The decrease in gross profit for both periods was primarily attributable to decreases in sales which drove higher fixed overhead costs per unit.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $53,000, or 2.7%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, increases in legal fees and insurance costs were largely offset by decreases in sales and marketing expenses and salaries and benefits.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $121,000, or 3.0%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, increases in salaries and benefits and insurance costs were largely offset by a decrease in legal fees and travel expenses.

Other (Income)/Expense

 

Our other (income)/expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $541,000 and ($18,000), respectively. Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was made up of settlement expense and interest expense, including non-cash interest for the convertible note and stock-based settlement expense. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was made up of interest income from investments, partially offset by interest expense on long-term debt.

 

Our other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $767,000 and $281,000, respectively. Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was made up of settlement expense and interest expense, including non-cash interest for the convertible note and settlement of shares. Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 almost entirely consisted of settlement expense; the net of interest income and interest expense was immaterial.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, settlement expense totaled $309,000 and $0, respectively, while interest expense totaled $251,000 and $26,000, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, settlement expense totaled $309,000 and $282,000, respectively, interest income totaled $45,000 and $68,000, respectively, and interest expense totaled $504,000 and $65,000, respectively.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $2.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $4.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The increase in net loss for both periods was primarily the result of lower net sales for the period ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized $1.1 million in non-cash operating costs, including $439,000 for stock-based compensation, $334,000 for amortization of convertible note costs, and $209,000 for stock-based settlement expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $338,000 in non-cash operating costs, including $252,000 for stock-based settlement expense and $102,000 for depreciation.

Net cash used in operating activities

 

Our largest source of operating cash has been cash collected from sales of our products. Our primary use of cash in operating activities has been for inventory purchases, salaries and benefits, legal and professional services, and sales and marketing. In the last several years, we have generated negative cash flows from operating activities and supplemented working capital requirements through net proceeds from sales of our Common Stock.

 

We generated negative cash flows from operating activities of $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to negative cash flows of $3.5 million for the same period in 2023. Factors affecting operating cash flows during both periods included:

 

●

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our loss of $4.4 million was reduced by non-cash transactions including stock-based compensation of $439,000, amortization of convertible note costs of $334,000, stock-based settlement costs of $209,000, and depreciation of $95,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our loss of $3.5 million was reduced by non-cash transactions including a stock-based settlement of $252,000 and depreciation of $102,000.

●

Cash used for an increase in accounts receivable was $198,000 and $92,000 for six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Sales are generally collected within 30 to 45 days. These changes are mainly due to the timing of invoices and payments before and after the end of the period.

●

Cash (provided by) / used in accounts payable was ($146,000) and $11,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, representing a increase in accounts payable for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and a decrease in accounts payable for the six months ended June 30, 2023. These changes are mainly due to the timing of invoices and payments before and after the end of the period.

●

Cash used for inventory and prepaid inventories increased by $92,000 and increased by $456,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in 2024 is due to the timing of purchases—there was an increase of $555,000 of in-transit inventory offset by a decrease of $464,000 of inventory. The increase in 2023 is primarily due to the timing of significant purchases and prepayments of inventory to Asian suppliers. Turnaround time for receiving inventory from foreign sources can take up to 120 days, with prepayments required.

●

Cash provided by a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $14,000 and decreased by $1,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in 2024 is due to accruals of $98,000, which were offset by non-cash payments of prior accruals of $112,000. Non-cash payments include $76,000 in issuance of Common Stock for payment on accrued interest, and $36,000 in Common Stock for payment on accrued compensation.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities

 

Cash provided by investing activities was $77,000 and $4,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Purchases of $11,000 in 2024 were for quality assurance equipment and purchases of $34,000 in 2023 included $22,000 for tooling and molds and $10,000 for improvements on vehicles. We sold three vehicles during the six months ended June 30, 2024, for net proceeds of $88,000, compared to the sale of one vehicle for net proceeds of $38,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

  

Net cash provided by / (used in) financing activities

 

Cash provided by financing activities was $299,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and cash used in financing activities was $87,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we received net proceeds from issuance of Common Stock of $828,000, offset by principal payments on a convertible note of $366,000, principal payments on long-term debt of $102,000, and principal payments on stockholder promissory notes of $63,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we made principal payments on long-term debt of $137,000, which were offset by net cash proceeds of $50,000 from the exercise of warrants.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Overview

 

Our operations have been financed primarily through net proceeds from sales of our Common Stock and equity and debt financings. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our current assets exceeded current liabilities by $1.5 million and $4.3 million, respectively, and we had cash and cash equivalents of $902,000 and $3.9 million, respectively.

 

We generally consider our short-term liquidity requirements to consist of those items that are expected to be incurred within the next twelve months and believe those requirements to consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses, interest and principal payments on our debt, and capital expenditures related to assembly line expansion.

 

 27

 

 

As of June 30, 2024, we expect our short-term liquidity requirements to include (a) principal debt payments totaling approximately $3.1 million net of amortization and (b) lease obligation payments of approximately $732,000, including imputed interest.

 

We generally consider our long-term liquidity requirements to consist of those items that are expected to be incurred beyond the next twelve months and believe these requirements consist primarily of funds necessary for eighteen months.

 

Our activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before we achieve sustainable revenues and profit from operations. We expect to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future, and we may need to raise additional debt or equity financing to expand our presence in the marketplace, develop new products, achieve operating efficiencies, and accomplish our long-term business plans over the next several years. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available to us. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months from the date of issuance of the financial statements for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024. However, we are working to address our cash flow challenges, including raising additional capital, managing inventory levels, identifying alternative supply chain resources, and managing operational expenses. Refer to the risk factor entitled “Our audited financial statements include a statement that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and a continuation of negative financial trends could result in our inability to continue as a going concern” in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report.

 

Financings

 

August 2024 Public Offering

 

On August 7, 2024, the Company entered into the Underwriting Agreement with Aegis for the 2024 Public Offering of 50,000,000 Units based on a public offering price of $0.20 per Unit, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $8.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. Each Unit consists of one Share of Common Stock (or one Pre-Funded warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock in lieu of one Share, two Series A warrants and one Series B Warrant. The 2024 Public Offering closed on August 8, 2024. Of the 50,000,000 Units sold in the 2024 Public Offering, 33,402,000 were issued with Shares and 16,598,000 were issued with Pre-Funded Warrants.

  

Stockholder Promissory Notes

 

Stockholder promissory notes had an outstanding principal balance of $700,000 as of June 30, 2024. The stockholder promissory notes require monthly interest-only payments at 10% per annum and mature at various dates from September 2024 to December 2024. See Note 6 – “Stockholder Promissory Notes” in this Quarterly Report for further information on such stockholder promissory notes.

 

Vehicle Financing Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2024, we had three notes payable to GM Financial for vehicles. In addition, a commercial line secured in April 2022 for $300,000 was renewed in April 2023 for an increased amount of $350,000 and renewed again in April 2024 for the same amount. This commercial line may be used to finance vehicle purchases and expires in April 2025. The notes are payable in aggregate monthly installments of $2,560, including interest at rates ranging from 6.14% to 7.29% per annum, mature at various dates from October 2027 to May 2028, and are secured by the related vehicles.

 

Convertible Note Financing

 

On December 27, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with 3i, pursuant to which we sold, and 3i purchased, the 3i Note in the aggregate original principal amount of $2,750,000 (the “Convertible Note Financing”). The gross proceeds to us were $2.5 million, prior to the payment of legal fees and transaction expenses. As of June 30, 2024, 26,025 shares of Common Stock have been issued to 3i for the payment of $76,000 in interest under the 3i Note.

 

The principal repayment amount of the 3i Note is $2,750,000. The associated costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Convertible Note Financing of approximately $80,000 will be amortized over the 12-month period ending December 31, 2024. The 3i Note required monthly interest-only payments at 9.0% per annum, payable in cash or, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Note, Common Stock, and had a maturity date of December 27, 2024, unless earlier converted or redeemed. An interest payment of $2,750 was made in December 2023 for the pro-rated interest due for December.

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, redemption amounts of $353,000 were used to repay a portion of the balance under the 3i Note, consisting of payments of $308,000 to the loan principal, $28,000 to interest, and $17,000 as a redemption premium. As of June 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the note was $2.4 million and the remaining interest was $136,000.

 

On August 8, 2024, in connection with the 2024 Public Offering, the Company repaid the 3i Note, and the Company’s obligations under the 3i Note were fully satisfied and discharged.

Equity Line of Credit

 

On December 27, 2023, we entered into the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which we had the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Tumim, and Tumim was obligated to purchase, up to the lesser of (a) $20,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued Common Stock and (b) the Exchange Cap (as defined in the purchase agreement) (the “Equity Line of Credit”). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we sold 38,224 and 433,591 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate amount of $125,153 and $828,491.

 

Effective as of August 8, 2024, in connection with the 2024 Public Offering, the Company and Tumim mutually agreed to terminate the Common Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

Operating Lease Liabilities

 

Our estimated future obligations consist of long-term operating lease liabilities. As of June 30, 2024, we had $2.5 million in long-term operating lease liabilities.

 

Other Long-Term Indebtedness

 

As of June 30, 2024, our long-term debt totaled $248,000, which consists of $145,000 outstanding under a COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan, $98,000 outstanding under vehicle financing arrangements, and an equipment loan for $5,000.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The above discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” Critical accounting policies are those that we consider to be the most important in portraying our financial condition and results of operations and also require the greatest number of judgments by management. Judgments or uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. We consider the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing the financial statements.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value and consists of batteries and accessories, resale items, components, and related landing costs. The valuation of inventory includes fixed production overhead costs based on normal capacity of the assembly warehouse.

 

We periodically review our inventory for evidence of slow-moving or obsolete inventory and provide for an allowance when considered necessary. We have determined that no such reserve was necessary as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. We prepay for inventory purchases from foreign suppliers and include inventory in transit where title had passed to us but had not yet been physically received.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives. Betterments, renewals, and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the Statements of Operations.

 

Leases

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on our Balance Sheets. We do not have any finance leases. We account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all its leases.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is generated from the sale of products consisting primarily of batteries and accessories. We recognize revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. As such, accounts receivable is recorded at the time of shipment or will call, when our right to the consideration becomes unconditional, and we determine there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.

 

 29

 

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the Statement of Operations as “Net sales.” Shipping and handling costs for shipping product to customers are classified in selling, general, and administrative expense on the Statements of Operations.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Statements of Operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a C corporation and its deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of exiting assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a smaller reporting company (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), we are not required to provide the information called for by Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2024. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours is designed to do, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2024.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We may become, from time to time, involved in routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities. We are not currently party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

 

 30

 

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our Common Stock involves risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all the information within the section titles “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained within this Quarterly Report. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, as well as in our other public filings with the SEC. If any of the identified risks are realized, our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our Common Stock may decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In addition, other risks of which we are currently unaware, or which we do not currently view as material, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and future prospects.

 

We are not aware of any material changes to the risks and uncertainties described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Nature of Operations	1 – Organization and Nature of Operations   Expion360 Inc. (formerly Yozamp Products Company, LLC dba Expion360) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in November 2021. Effective November 1, 2021, the Company converted to a C corporation. Prior to conversion, the Company was a limited liability company (the “LLC”) with an indefinite life organized in the State of Oregon in June 2016. The LLC elected to be treated as a Subchapter S corporation effective January 1, 2017. Net profits and losses of the LLC and all distributions were allocated among the members in proportion to the ownership units held. The original LLC Agreement was amended and restated on January 1, 2021 to add additional members and a non-voting class of member units. Upon conversion to a C corporation, all existing LLC members at the time of conversion were issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and became stockholders of the Company.   The Company designs, assembles, and distributes premium lithium iron phosphate (“LiFePO4”) batteries and supporting accessories for recreational vehicle (“RV”), marine, golf, industrial, and residential needs. LiFePO4 batteries are considered a top choice for high energy density, dependability, longevity, and safety, providing the ability to power anything, anywhere.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies   Basis of Presentation   The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.   Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024.   Unless otherwise noted, all references to shares and stockholders in the accompanying financial statements have been restated retrospectively, to reflect the equity structure of the C corporation as of the beginning of the first period presented.   Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation   Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.   Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources   The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before the Company achieves sustainable revenues and profit from operations. The Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future, and the Company may need to raise additional debt or equity financing to expand its presence in the marketplace, develop new products, achieve operating efficiencies, and accomplish its long-term business plan over the next several years. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.   As presented in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after the date that the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are issued. However, management is working to address its cash flow challenges, including raising additional capital, managing inventory levels, identifying alternative supply chain resources, and managing operational expenses.   Historically, the Company’s growth has been funded through a combination of sales of equity interests, third-party debt, and working capital loans. The Company’s sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 25.9% and sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 30.4% compared to the same period in 2023, as the overall RV market experienced a severe slowdown. Through June 30, 2024, the Company distributed $4 for the settlement of fractional shares related to warrant exercises compared to receiving net proceeds of $49,777 from warrant exercises during the same period in 2023. On February 9, 2024, a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276663) was declared effective for the resale, from time to time, of up to 1,781,978 shares of the Company’s common stock by a selling stockholder in connection with an equity line of credit financing. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 395,367 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $703,339 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 433,591 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $828,492 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 15,327 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $34,561. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 26,025 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $75,811 and issued 7,936 shares of common stock for payment on accrued compensation totaling $36,029, compared to zero shares issued during the same prior year period. Management believes that these factors will contribute to achieving operating efficiency and profitability. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its objectives, including achieving operating efficiency and profitability.   The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.   Use of Estimates   The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements, and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. In addition, the Company has considered the potential impact of macroeconomic factors, including inflation, changes in interest rates, changes in commodity pricing, and recessionary concerns on its business and operations. Although the full impact of these factors is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company believes it has made appropriate accounting estimates and assumptions based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. However, actual results could vary materially from the estimates and assumptions that were used, which may result in material effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. The Company’s significant accounting estimates include the carrying value of accounts receivable and inventory, the depreciable lives of fixed assets, and stock-based compensation. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial statements may be materially affected.   Cash and Cash Equivalents   The Company considers all cash amounts which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties and all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with high-quality financial institutions located in the United States. Cash accounts are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per institution. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. Investment accounts are placed in funds consisting of US Treasury-related ultra-short paper. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2024, cash balances exceeded FDIC limits by $102,933 and investment accounts totaling $521,214 are invested in US Treasury related ultra-short paper.   Accounts Receivable   Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, are due within a year or less, and generally do not bear any interest. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally requires no collateral. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded to reduce accounts receivable to the estimated amount that will be collected. The allowance is based upon management’s review of the accounts receivable aging and specific identification of potentially uncollectible balances. Recoveries of accounts previously written off and adjustments to the allowance for uncollectible accounts are recorded as adjustments to bad debt expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company wrote off $0 and $0 to bad debt expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company collected $0 and $800 of bad debt that had been written off previously. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023, as management believed all outstanding amounts to be fully collectible.    Customer Deposits   As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had customer deposits totaling $14,094 and $17,423, respectively.   Inventory   Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value and consists of batteries and accessories, resale items, components, and related landing costs. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had inventory that consisted of finished assemblies totaling $2,306,036 and $2,967,021, respectively, and raw materials (inventory components, parts, and packaging) totaling $1,055,796 and $858,369, respectively. The valuation of inventory includes fixed production overhead costs based on normal capacity of the assembly warehouse.   The Company periodically reviews its inventory for evidence of slow-moving or obsolete inventory and provides for an allowance when considered necessary. The Company determined that no such reserve was necessary as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The Company prepays for inventory purchases from foreign suppliers. Prepaid inventory totaled $719,286 and $163,948 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and included inventory in transit where title had passed to the Company but had not yet been physically received.   Vendor and Foreign Concentrations of Inventory Suppliers   During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 83% and 74%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 79% and 80%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. Any adverse change in either the economic or political conditions abroad could negatively impact the Company’s supply chain. The inability to obtain product to meet sales demand could adversely affect results of operations. However, the Company has secured a secondary source for lithium iron phosphate cells used in its batteries from a supplier in Europe, enabling the Company to source materials outside of Asia in the event it becomes necessary to do so.   Property and Equipment   Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:   Vehicles and transportation equipment 5-7 years Office furniture and equipment 3-7 years Manufacturing equipment 3-10 years Warehouse equipment 3-10 years QA equipment 3-10 years Tooling and molds 3-10 years   Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives.   Betterments, renewals, and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the Statements of Operations.   Leases   The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets. The Company does not have any finance leases.   Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate applicable to the lease asset, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before lease commencement and exclude any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the Company’s Balance Sheet. The Company’s leases do not contain any residual value guarantees. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.   The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all its leases.   Impairment of Long-Lived Assets   Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment. When events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the use and eventual disposition of the asset to assess whether or not a potential impairment exists. If the carrying value exceeds the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows, the impairment is calculated as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the estimate of its fair value. Fair value is determined primarily using the estimated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. No long-lived asset impairment was recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.   Product Warranties   The Company sells the majority of its products to customers along with conditional repair or replacement warranties. The Company’s branded DC mobile chargers are warrantied for two years from the date of sale and its branded VPR 4EVER Classic and Platinum batteries are warrantied at gradually lesser levels over a 12-year period from date of sale. The Company determines its estimated liability for warranty claims based on the Company’s experience of the amount of claims actually made. Management estimates no liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 because, historically, there have been very few claims and costs for repairs or replacement parts have been nominal. It is possible that the Company’s estimate of liability for product liability claims will change in the near term.   Liability for Refunds   The Company does not have a formal return policy but does accept returns under its warranty policies. Returns have historically been minimal. No refund liability was recognized as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Revenue is recorded net of this amount. Any returns of discontinued product are not added back to inventory and therefore related costs are nominal and not recorded as an asset.   Revenue Recognition   The Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of products consisting primarily of batteries and accessories. The Company recognizes revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery to the customer, as that is when the customer obtains control of the promised goods and the Company’s performance obligation is considered satisfied. As such, accounts receivable is recorded at the time of shipment or will call, when the Company’s right to the consideration becomes unconditional and the Company determines there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.   Concentration of Major Customers   A customer is considered a major customer when net revenue attributable to the customer exceeds 10% of total revenue for the period or outstanding receivable balances exceed 10% of total receivables.   During the three months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $232,513, comprising approximately 19% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $284,571, comprising approximately 12% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024. Accounts receivable from two additional customers totaled $134,362, representing approximately 38% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.   During the three months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $504,334, comprising approximately 30% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $708,042, comprising approximately 22% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. Accounts receivable from one additional customer totaled $63,388, representing approximately 16% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023.   Shipping and Handling Costs   Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the Statement of Operations as “Net sales” and totaled $29,199 and $15,365 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $51,889 and $24,898 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Shipping and handling costs for shipping product to customers totaled $59,651 and $48,549 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $102,694 and $91,757 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are classified in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.   Advertising and Marketing Costs   The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense totaled $228,308 and $297,673 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $468,384 and $452,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.    Research and Development   Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs charged to expense amounted to $84,663 and $94,078 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $160,165 and $171,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Statements of Operations.   Income Taxes   The Company is a C corporation and its deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of exiting assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.   Fair Value of Financial Instruments   The Company accounts for its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, as follows:   Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.   Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted market prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.   Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.   The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term revolving loans, stockholder promissory notes, and long-term debt. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term revolving loans approximates their respective carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of the stockholder promissory notes, convertible notes, and long-term debt approximates their respective carrying values because the interest rate approximates market rates available to the Company for similar obligations with the same maturities.   Segment Reporting   The Company currently operates in one reportable segment. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the CODM.   Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share   The basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings or loss per share adjusts the basic earnings or loss per share for the potentially dilutive impact of securities (e.g., options and warrants).   We calculate basic and diluted net loss per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. In periods of a net loss position, basic and diluted weighted average common shares are the same. For the diluted earnings per share calculation, we adjust the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to include dilutive stock options, warrants, unvested restricted stock units and shares associated with the conversion of any convertible notes or preferred stock, when applicable. We use the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of convertible notes and convertible preferred stock on diluted net loss per share.   The following shows the amounts used in computing net loss per share:                                     Three Months Ended June 30,     Six Month Ended June 30,       2024     2023     2024     2023   Net loss   $ (2,220,232 )   $ (1,478,788 )   $ (4,413,172 )   $ (3,456,066 ) Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic and diluted     7,357,300       6,910,491       7,182,121       6,862,747   Basic and diluted net loss per share   $ (0.30 )   $ (0.21 )   $ (0.61 )   $ (0.50 )   As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has outstanding warrants, options, and RSUs convertible into 2,010,346 and 1,914,415 shares of common stock, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of shares excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.     As of       June 30, 2024     December 31, 2023   Warrants     795,295       802,830   Stock Options     1,174,500       1,075,000   RSUs     40,551       36,585         2,010,346       1,914,415     Stock-Based Compensation   The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which requires compensation costs to be recognized at grant date fair value over the requisite service period of each of the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures of awards as they occur.   The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding the components of the model, including risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected life. Changes to assumptions could cause significant adjustments to the valuation.   New Accounting Pronouncements   In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, amending “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205),” “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220),” “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480),” “Equity (Topic 505),” and “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).” The Company adopted this standard effective December 15, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.    In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” This ASU was issued to allow reporting entities to consistently account for equity investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits and other income tax benefits. ASU 2023-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.   In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions,” which amends the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. In addition, the ASU introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities. The Company adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.   Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Yet Adopted   In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, “Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements,” to address suggestions received from stakeholders. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.   In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which adds an illustrative example to demonstrate how to apply the guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.   In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative,” which affects a variety of Topics in the Codification. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

None of its leases include characteristics specified in ASC 842, Leases, that require classification as financing leases, and accordingly, these leases are accounted for as operating leases. The Company does not recognize an ROU asset and lease liability for short-term leases, which have terms of 12 months or less. For longer-term lease arrangements that are recognized on the Company’s Balance Sheet, the ROU asset and lease liability are initially measured at the commencement date based upon the present values of the lease payments due under the leases.   The implicit interest rates of the Company’s lease arrangements are generally not readily determinable and as such, the Company applies an incremental borrowing rate, which is established based upon the information available at the lease commencement date, to determine the present value of lease payments due under the arrangement. Under ASC 842, the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) for leases must be (1) a rate of interest over a similar term, and (2) for an amount that is equal to the lease payments. The Company uses both the Federal Reserve Economic Data U.S. corporate debt effective yield and the U.S. Treasury rates adjusted for credit spread as the primary data points for purposes of determining the IBR.   In the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into two new long-term, non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office and warehouse space resulting in the Company recognizing an additional lease liability totaling of $2,348,509, representing the present value of the lease payments discounted using an effective interest rate of 8.07% and 8.86%, and corresponding ROU assets of $2,348,509. The leases expire in December 2026 and December 2028, the latter of which contains one three-year option to renew.   In the first quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a long-term, non-cancelable operating lease agreement for office and warehouse space resulting in the Company recognizing an additional lease liability totaling of $1,268,089, representing the present value of the lease payments discounted using an effective interest rate of 7.47% and a corresponding ROU asset of $1,268,089. The lease expires in January 2028 and contains one three-year option to renew.   The Company has two other leases—one that expired in January 2023 and one that expires in February 2025. The leases generally provide for annual increases based on a fixed amount and generally require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and repairs.   The following is a summary of total lease costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:                                     Three Months Ended June 30,     Six Months Ended June 30,       2024     2023     2024     2023   Operating lease cost   $ 187,316     $ 187,315     $ 373,661     $ 375,344   Short-term lease costs     —       —       —       150   Variable lease costs     —       —       —       —   Sublease income     (10,753 )     (10,440 )     (21,298 )     (29,036 )   $ 176,563     $ 176,875     $ 352,363     $ 346,458     The weighted-average remaining lease term was 4.07 years and 4.54 years as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The weighted average discount rate was 8.45% and 8.47%, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Operating cash flows from the operating leases totaled $129,442 and $114,110 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $255,351 and $206,217 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.    The total lease liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2,508,738 and $2,764,089, respectively.   The following is a maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows of the operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2024, for years ending June 30:     Total   2025     $ 731,576   2026       722,239   2027       713,041   2028       593,930   2029       225,139   Thereafter       —   Total future minimum lease payments     $ 2,985,925   Less imputed interest       (447,187 ) Total     $ 2,508,738               Current lease liability     $ 541,145   Non-current lease liability       1,967,593   Total     $ 2,508,738     Subleases   As of June 30, 2024, the Company subleases office and warehouse space under one of its existing operating leases with similar terms as the Company’s lease agreements. Two additional leases terminated in February 2023. Because the Company is not relieved of its primary obligations under the original lease, the Company accounts for the subleases as a lessor. Sublease rental income is recorded based on the contractual rental payments which are not substantially different from recognition on a straight-line basis over the lease term and totaled $10,753 and $10,440 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $21,298 and $29,036 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, deferred income and a sublease deposit totaled $4,549 and $4,445, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the accompanying Balance Sheets.   The total future minimum sublease payments are $28,675, all due in the twelve months ending June 30, 2024.   Litigation   The Company may be involved from time to time in litigation or claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. While the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these claims cannot be determined with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of any such matters will not likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.   SEC Investigation   As previously disclosed, on May 6, 2024, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents and communications concerning certain press releases. On May 23, 2024, the SEC staff notified the Company that they have concluded their investigation, and based on the information acquired to date, do not intend to recommend an enforcement action against the Company.

Below is a summary of warrants and stock options issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2024:           Number of Warrants / Non-plan Options   Exercise Price   Weighted Average Remaining Life (Years) 78,000     $2.90   0.36 544,290  (1)   $3.32   7.01 88,803     $4.50   2.75 25,000     $5.00   1.11 59,202     $9.10   2.75 795,295             (1) Includes 514,290 warrants and 30,000 non-plan options   See Note 11 – “Stockholders’ Equity” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part IV of the Annual Report for further information regarding the Company’s outstanding warrants and stock options.   Equity Plans   As of June 30, 2024, the Company had adopted two stock-based compensation plans, the 2021 Incentive Award Plan and the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.   During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company granted 0 RSUs, granted 0 options, and canceled 2,500 options under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company granted 15,865 RSUs, granted 104,500 options, and canceled 5,000 options under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan. The compensation costs that have been charged against operations were $123,069 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and were $438,923 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.   No shares have been issued to date under the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.   See Note 11 – “Stockholders’ Equity” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part IV of the Annual Report for further information regarding the 2021 Incentive Award Plan and 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.   2021 Incentive Award Plan   The purpose of the Company’s 2021 Incentive Award Plan is to enhance the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing these individuals with equity ownership opportunities. Various stock-based awards may be granted under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan to eligible employees, consultants, and non-employee directors. The number of shares issued under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan is subject to limits and is adjusted annually. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate number of shares that can be issued under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan is 1,795,768, of which 1,174,500 options and 64,645 RSUs have been granted.   2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan   The purpose of the Company’s 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan is to assist eligible employees of the Company in acquiring a stock ownership in the Company and to help such employees provide for their future security and to encourage them to remain in the employment of the Company. The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan consists of a Section 423 Component and Non-Section 423 Component. The Section 423 Component is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan and authorizes the grant of options. Options granted under the Non-Section 423 Component are granted pursuant to separate offerings containing sub-plans. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of a share on (a) the applicable grant date and (b) the applicable exercise date, or such other price as designated by the administrator, provided that in no event shall the option price be less that the per share par value price. The maximum number of shares granted under the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan may not exceed 2,500,000 shares.   The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected stock price volatility and the expected option term. Expected volatility was calculated based upon similar traded companies’ historical share price movements as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. Expected term is calculated based on the simplified method as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. The simplified method will continue to apply until enough historical experience is available to provide a reasonable estimate of the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is calculated based on the yield from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The Company has historically not paid dividends and have no foreseeable plans to pay dividends.   The Company has computed the fair value of all options granted through June 30, 2024 using the following assumptions:     Expected volatility 110.51 % Expected dividends None   Expected term (in years) 4.87   Risk free rate 3.35 %   The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan:                                         Number of Options     Weighted Average Exercise Price     Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)     Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)   Outstanding at beginning of period       1,177,000     $ 3.75       —     $ —   Granted       —       3.45       —       —   Exercised       —       —       —       —   Forfeited       2,500       —       —       —   Outstanding at end of period       1,174,500     $ 3.75       8.96     $ —   Exercisable at end of period       1,012,222     $ 3.62       8.90     $ —     (1) The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable at beginning of period and as of June 30, 2024 is $0, as all options are out of the money.   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the weighted-average grant-date fair value of the options granted to employees and non-employees was $0 and $312,873, and was $0 and $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Unrecognized compensation expense related to employees and non-employees was $687,397 as of December 31, 2023. The options granted in May 2022 were vested 100% at time of grant. The options granted in August 2023 began to vest in equal quarterly installments beginning September 30, 2023 and ending June 30, 2026. The options granted in March 2024 vested 50% at time of grant with the remaining shares vesting in 12 equal consecutive quarterly installments commencing June 30, 2024 and becoming fully vested on March 31, 2027.   The following table summarizes the Company’s RSU activity under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan:                     Number of restricted stock awards     Weighted average grant-date fair value   Nonvested at beginning of year   $ 36,585     $ 179,998   Granted     15,865       72,027   Vested     (11,889 )     (54,021 ) Forfeited     —       —   Nonvested as of June 30, 2024   $ 40,551     $ 198,004     There was $35,585 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs that are expected to be recognized over a period of up to 0.16 years.   Common Stock Reserved for Future Issuance   The following is a summary of common stock shares reserved for future issuance as of June 30, 2024:         Exercise of warrants     765,295   Exercise of options unrelated to any Plan     30,000   Exercise of stock options – 2021 Incentive Award Plan     1,174,500   Exercise of restricted stock units – 2021 Incentive Award Plan     40,551   Total shares of common stock reserved for future issuances     2,010,346

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	13 – Subsequent Events   The Company evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2024, the date of the most recent Balance Sheets, through August 14, 2024, the date the unaudited financial statements were issued.   Share Issuances   In July 2024, 15,434 shares were issued for non-cash payment of interest on the 3i Note of $15,028. In addition, 1,983 shares valued at $9,000 were issued due to vesting of RSUs that had been awarded as stock-based compensation.   August 2024 Public Offering   On August 7, 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Aegis Capital Corp., the underwriter, in connection with a firm commitment underwritten public offering (such transaction, the “2024 Public Offering”) of 50,000,000 units (“Units”) based on a public offering price of $0.20 per Unit, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $8.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation   The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.   Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024.   Unless otherwise noted, all references to shares and stockholders in the accompanying financial statements have been restated retrospectively, to reflect the equity structure of the C corporation as of the beginning of the first period presented.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation	Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation   Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources	Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources   The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before the Company achieves sustainable revenues and profit from operations. The Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future, and the Company may need to raise additional debt or equity financing to expand its presence in the marketplace, develop new products, achieve operating efficiencies, and accomplish its long-term business plan over the next several years. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.   As presented in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after the date that the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are issued. However, management is working to address its cash flow challenges, including raising additional capital, managing inventory levels, identifying alternative supply chain resources, and managing operational expenses.   Historically, the Company’s growth has been funded through a combination of sales of equity interests, third-party debt, and working capital loans. The Company’s sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 25.9% and sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 30.4% compared to the same period in 2023, as the overall RV market experienced a severe slowdown. Through June 30, 2024, the Company distributed $4 for the settlement of fractional shares related to warrant exercises compared to receiving net proceeds of $49,777 from warrant exercises during the same period in 2023. On February 9, 2024, a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276663) was declared effective for the resale, from time to time, of up to 1,781,978 shares of the Company’s common stock by a selling stockholder in connection with an equity line of credit financing. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 395,367 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $703,339 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 433,591 shares of common stock to the stockholder under the equity line of credit and received proceeds of $828,492 compared to $0 in the same prior year period. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 15,327 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $34,561. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 26,025 shares of common stock to satisfy interest payments to a note holder in connection with a short-term convertible note, totaling $75,811 and issued 7,936 shares of common stock for payment on accrued compensation totaling $36,029, compared to zero shares issued during the same prior year period. Management believes that these factors will contribute to achieving operating efficiency and profitability. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its objectives, including achieving operating efficiency and profitability.   The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates   The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements, and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. In addition, the Company has considered the potential impact of macroeconomic factors, including inflation, changes in interest rates, changes in commodity pricing, and recessionary concerns on its business and operations. Although the full impact of these factors is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company believes it has made appropriate accounting estimates and assumptions based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. However, actual results could vary materially from the estimates and assumptions that were used, which may result in material effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. The Company’s significant accounting estimates include the carrying value of accounts receivable and inventory, the depreciable lives of fixed assets, and stock-based compensation. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial statements may be materially affected.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents   The Company considers all cash amounts which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties and all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with high-quality financial institutions located in the United States. Cash accounts are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per institution. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. Investment accounts are placed in funds consisting of US Treasury-related ultra-short paper. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2024, cash balances exceeded FDIC limits by $102,933 and investment accounts totaling $521,214 are invested in US Treasury related ultra-short paper.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable   Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, are due within a year or less, and generally do not bear any interest. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally requires no collateral. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded to reduce accounts receivable to the estimated amount that will be collected. The allowance is based upon management’s review of the accounts receivable aging and specific identification of potentially uncollectible balances. Recoveries of accounts previously written off and adjustments to the allowance for uncollectible accounts are recorded as adjustments to bad debt expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company wrote off $0 and $0 to bad debt expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company collected $0 and $800 of bad debt that had been written off previously. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023, as management believed all outstanding amounts to be fully collectible.
Customer Deposits	Customer Deposits   As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had customer deposits totaling $14,094 and $17,423, respectively.
Inventory	Inventory   Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value and consists of batteries and accessories, resale items, components, and related landing costs. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had inventory that consisted of finished assemblies totaling $2,306,036 and $2,967,021, respectively, and raw materials (inventory components, parts, and packaging) totaling $1,055,796 and $858,369, respectively. The valuation of inventory includes fixed production overhead costs based on normal capacity of the assembly warehouse.   The Company periodically reviews its inventory for evidence of slow-moving or obsolete inventory and provides for an allowance when considered necessary. The Company determined that no such reserve was necessary as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The Company prepays for inventory purchases from foreign suppliers. Prepaid inventory totaled $719,286 and $163,948 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and included inventory in transit where title had passed to the Company but had not yet been physically received.
Vendor and Foreign Concentrations of Inventory Suppliers	Vendor and Foreign Concentrations of Inventory Suppliers   During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 83% and 74%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, approximately 79% and 80%, respectively, of inventory purchases were made from foreign suppliers in Asia. Any adverse change in either the economic or political conditions abroad could negatively impact the Company’s supply chain. The inability to obtain product to meet sales demand could adversely affect results of operations. However, the Company has secured a secondary source for lithium iron phosphate cells used in its batteries from a supplier in Europe, enabling the Company to source materials outside of Asia in the event it becomes necessary to do so.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment   Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:   Vehicles and transportation equipment 5-7 years Office furniture and equipment 3-7 years Manufacturing equipment 3-10 years Warehouse equipment 3-10 years QA equipment 3-10 years Tooling and molds 3-10 years   Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives.   Betterments, renewals, and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the Statements of Operations.
Leases	Leases   The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets. The Company does not have any finance leases.   Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate applicable to the lease asset, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before lease commencement and exclude any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the Company’s Balance Sheet. The Company’s leases do not contain any residual value guarantees. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.   The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all its leases.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets   Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment. When events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from the use and eventual disposition of the asset to assess whether or not a potential impairment exists. If the carrying value exceeds the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows, the impairment is calculated as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the estimate of its fair value. Fair value is determined primarily using the estimated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. No long-lived asset impairment was recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.
Product Warranties	Product Warranties   The Company sells the majority of its products to customers along with conditional repair or replacement warranties. The Company’s branded DC mobile chargers are warrantied for two years from the date of sale and its branded VPR 4EVER Classic and Platinum batteries are warrantied at gradually lesser levels over a 12-year period from date of sale. The Company determines its estimated liability for warranty claims based on the Company’s experience of the amount of claims actually made. Management estimates no liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 because, historically, there have been very few claims and costs for repairs or replacement parts have been nominal. It is possible that the Company’s estimate of liability for product liability claims will change in the near term.
Liability for Refunds	Liability for Refunds   The Company does not have a formal return policy but does accept returns under its warranty policies. Returns have historically been minimal. No refund liability was recognized as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Revenue is recorded net of this amount. Any returns of discontinued product are not added back to inventory and therefore related costs are nominal and not recorded as an asset.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition   The Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of products consisting primarily of batteries and accessories. The Company recognizes revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery to the customer, as that is when the customer obtains control of the promised goods and the Company’s performance obligation is considered satisfied. As such, accounts receivable is recorded at the time of shipment or will call, when the Company’s right to the consideration becomes unconditional and the Company determines there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.
Concentration of Major Customers	Concentration of Major Customers   A customer is considered a major customer when net revenue attributable to the customer exceeds 10% of total revenue for the period or outstanding receivable balances exceed 10% of total receivables.   During the three months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $232,513, comprising approximately 19% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, sales to one customer totaled $284,571, comprising approximately 12% of total sales. This customer represented 12% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024. Accounts receivable from two additional customers totaled $134,362, representing approximately 38% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.   During the three months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $504,334, comprising approximately 30% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, sales to two customers totaled $708,042, comprising approximately 22% of total sales. These customers represented 29% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. Accounts receivable from one additional customer totaled $63,388, representing approximately 16% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023.
Shipping and Handling Costs	Shipping and Handling Costs   Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the Statement of Operations as “Net sales” and totaled $29,199 and $15,365 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $51,889 and $24,898 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Shipping and handling costs for shipping product to customers totaled $59,651 and $48,549 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $102,694 and $91,757 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are classified in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.
Advertising and Marketing Costs	Advertising and Marketing Costs   The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense totaled $228,308 and $297,673 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $468,384 and $452,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations.
Research and Development	Research and Development   Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs charged to expense amounted to $84,663 and $94,078 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $160,165 and $171,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes   The Company is a C corporation and its deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of exiting assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments   The Company accounts for its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, as follows:   Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.   Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted market prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.   Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.   The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term revolving loans, stockholder promissory notes, and long-term debt. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term revolving loans approximates their respective carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of the stockholder promissory notes, convertible notes, and long-term debt approximates their respective carrying values because the interest rate approximates market rates available to the Company for similar obligations with the same maturities.
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting   The Company currently operates in one reportable segment. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the CODM.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share	Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share   The basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings or loss per share adjusts the basic earnings or loss per share for the potentially dilutive impact of securities (e.g., options and warrants).   We calculate basic and diluted net loss per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. In periods of a net loss position, basic and diluted weighted average common shares are the same. For the diluted earnings per share calculation, we adjust the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to include dilutive stock options, warrants, unvested restricted stock units and shares associated with the conversion of any convertible notes or preferred stock, when applicable. We use the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of convertible notes and convertible preferred stock on diluted net loss per share.   The following shows the amounts used in computing net loss per share:                                     Three Months Ended June 30,     Six Month Ended June 30,       2024     2023     2024     2023   Net loss   $ (2,220,232 )   $ (1,478,788 )   $ (4,413,172 )   $ (3,456,066 ) Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic and diluted     7,357,300       6,910,491       7,182,121       6,862,747   Basic and diluted net loss per share   $ (0.30 )   $ (0.21 )   $ (0.61 )   $ (0.50 )   As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has outstanding warrants, options, and RSUs convertible into 2,010,346 and 1,914,415 shares of common stock, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of shares excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.     As of       June 30, 2024     December 31, 2023   Warrants     795,295       802,830   Stock Options     1,174,500       1,075,000   RSUs     40,551       36,585         2,010,346       1,914,415
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation   The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which requires compensation costs to be recognized at grant date fair value over the requisite service period of each of the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures of awards as they occur.   The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding the components of the model, including risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected life. Changes to assumptions could cause significant adjustments to the valuation.
New Accounting Pronouncements	New Accounting Pronouncements   In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, amending “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205),” “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220),” “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480),” “Equity (Topic 505),” and “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).” The Company adopted this standard effective December 15, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.    In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” This ASU was issued to allow reporting entities to consistently account for equity investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits and other income tax benefits. ASU 2023-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.   In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions,” which amends the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. In addition, the ASU introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities. The Company adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2024, and the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.
Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Yet Adopted	Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Yet Adopted   In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, “Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements,” to address suggestions received from stakeholders. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.   In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which adds an illustrative example to demonstrate how to apply the guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.   In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative,” which affects a variety of Topics in the Codification. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.
