PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Forward-looking statements

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Energy Focus,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” or “the Company” refer to Energy Focus, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiary for the applicable periods, considered as a single enterprise.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) includes statements that express our opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, “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”). These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “feels,” “seeks,” “forecasts,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could” or “would” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this Quarterly Report and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, capital expenditures, and the industry in which we operate.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Although we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made in light of the information currently available to us, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments may differ materially from statements made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.
We believe that important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties outlined under “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and other matters described in this Quarterly Report and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission generally. Some of these factors include:
our need for and ability to obtain additional financing in the near term, on acceptable terms or at all, to continue our operations;
our ability to maintain compliance with the continued listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”);
our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time;
our ability to realize synergies with our strategic investor;
instability in the U.S. and global economies and business interruptions experienced by us, our customers and our suppliers, particularly in light of supply chain constraints and other long-term impacts of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic;
the competitiveness and market acceptance of our light-emitting diode (“LED”) lighting and control technologies and products;
our ability to compete effectively against companies with lower prices or cost structures, greater resources, or more rapid development capabilities, and new competitors in our target markets;
our ability to extend our product portfolio into new applications and end markets;
our ability to increase demand in our targeted markets and to manage sales cycles that are difficult to predict and may span several quarters;
the timing of large customer orders, significant expenses and fluctuations between demand and capacity as we manage inventory and invest in growth opportunities;
our ability to successfully scale our network of sales representatives, agents, distributors and other channel partners to compete with the sales reach of larger, established competitors;
our ability to implement plans to increase sales and control expenses;
our reliance on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenue, and our ability to maintain or grow such sales levels;
our ability to add new customers to reduce customer concentration;
our ability to attract and retain a new chief financial officer;
2


our ability to manage the size of our workforce while continuing to attract, develop and retain qualified personnel, and to do so in a timely manner;
our ability to diversify our reliance on a limited number of third-party suppliers and development partners, our ability to manage third-party product development and obtain critical components and finished products on acceptable terms and of acceptable quality despite ongoing global supply chain challenges, and the impact of our fluctuating demand on the stability of such suppliers;
our ability to timely, efficiently and cost-effectively transport products from our third-party suppliers by ocean marine and other logistics channels despite global supply chain and logistics disruptions;
the impact of any type of legal inquiry, claim or dispute;
the macro-economic conditions, including rising interest rates and recessionary trends, in the United States and in other markets in which we operate or secure products, which could affect our ability to obtain raw materials, component parts, freight, energy, labor, and sourced finished goods in a timely and cost-effective manner;
our dependence on military maritime customers and on the levels and timing of government funding available to such customers, as well as the funding resources of our other customers in the public sector and commercial markets;
business interruptions resulting from geopolitical actions such as war and terrorism, natural disasters, including earthquakes, typhoons, floods and fires, or from health epidemics or pandemics or other contagious outbreaks;
our ability to respond to new lighting and control technologies and market trends;
our ability to fulfill our warranty obligations with safe and reliable products;
any delays we may encounter in making new products available or fulfilling customer specifications;
any flaws or defects in our products or in the manner in which they are used or installed;
our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and other confidential information, and manage infringement claims by others;
our compliance with government contracting laws and regulations, through both direct and indirect sale channels, as well as other laws, such as those relating to the environment and health and safety;
risks inherent in international markets, such as economic and political uncertainty, changing regulatory and tax requirements and currency fluctuations, including tariffs and other potential barriers to international trade; and
our ability to maintain effective internal controls and otherwise comply with our obligations as a public company.
In light of the foregoing, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this Quarterly Report speaks only as of the date of such statement, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or to publicly announce the results of any revision to any of those statements to reflect future events or developments, except as required by law. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data. Furthermore, new risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us.

We are also evaluating adjacent technologies, including Gallium Nitride (“GaN”) based power supplies and additional market opportunities for energy solution products that support sustainability in our existing channels.
NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation

The significant accounting policies of our Company, which are summarized below, are consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect practices appropriate to the business in which we operate. Unless indicated otherwise, the information in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relates to our operations.
We have prepared the accompanying financial data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The accompanying financial data and information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Going Concern and Nasdaq Continued Listing Requirements Compliance
Due to our financial performance as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, including net losses of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $4.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, and total cash used in operating activities of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $2.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, we determined that substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern continues to exist at June 30, 2024. As a result of restructuring actions and initiatives, we have tailored our operating expenses to be more in line with our expected sales volumes; however, we continue to incur losses and have a substantial accumulated deficit.
Additionally, global supply chain and logistics constraints are impacting our inventory purchasing strategy, as we seek to manage both shortages of available components and longer lead times in obtaining components while balancing the development and implementation of an inventory reduction plan. Disruptions in global logistics networks are also impacting our lead times and ability to efficiently and cost-effectively transport products from our third-party suppliers to our facility. As a result, we will continue to review and pursue selected external funding sources to ensure adequate financial resources to execute across the timelines required to achieve these objectives including, but not limited to, the following:
obtaining financing from traditional or non-traditional investment capital organizations or individuals;
obtaining funding from the sale of our common stock or other equity or debt instruments; and
obtaining debt financing with lending terms that more closely match our business model and capital needs.
There can be no assurance that we will obtain funding on acceptable terms, in a timely fashion, or at all. Obtaining additional funding contains risks, including:
additional equity financing may not be available to us on satisfactory terms, particularly in light of the current price of our common stock, and any equity we are able to issue could lead to dilution for current stockholders and have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock;
loans or other debt instruments may have terms or conditions, such as interest rate, restrictive covenants, conversion features, refinancing demands, and control or revocation provisions, which are not acceptable to management or the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”); and
the current environment in the capital markets and volatile interest rates, combined with our capital constraints, may prevent us from being able to obtain adequate debt financing.
Considering both quantitative and qualitative information, we continue to believe that the combination of our plans to ensure adequate external funding, timely re-organizational actions, current financial position, liquid resources, obligations due or anticipated within the next year, development and implementation of an excess inventory reduction plan, plans and initiatives in our research and development, product development and sales and marketing, and development of potential channel partnerships, if adequately executed, could provide us with an ability to finance our operations through the next twelve months and may mitigate the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Nasdaq Capital Market Compliance
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company believes it has maintained compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Rule, which requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. To become compliant with the Bid Price Rule, which has a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share as one of its continued listing requirements, the Company effected a 1-for-7 reverse stock split to increase the per share trading price of the common stock, effective June 16, 2023 (See Note 8, “Stockholders’ Equity”).
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Rule, Bid Price Rule, or other Nasdaq listing requirements. If the Company fails to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards in accordance with the Panel’s decision, the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting from Nasdaq.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact us in the future, actual results may vary from
11

ENERGY FOCUS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
the estimates. Estimates include, but are not limited to, the establishment of reserves for accounts receivable, sales returns, inventory obsolescence and warranty claims, the useful lives of property and equipment, valuation allowance for net deferred taxes, and stock-based compensation. The Company began using estimates for its calculation of allowance for doubtful accounts receivable under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“CECL”), commencing in 2023. In addition, estimates and assumptions associated with the determination of the fair value of financial instruments and evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment requires considerable judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Revenue
Net sales include revenues from sales of products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for product returns. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the transferred products. We recognize revenue at the point in time when we transfer the promised products to the customer and the customer obtains control over the products. Distributors’ obligations to us are not contingent upon the resale of our products. We recognize revenue for shipping and handling charges at the time the goods are shipped to the customer, and the costs of outbound freight are included in cost of sales. We provide for product returns based on historical return rates. While we incur costs for sales commissions to our sales employees and outside agents, we recognize commission costs concurrent with the related revenue, as the amortization period is less than one year. We do not incur any other incremental costs to obtain contracts with our customers. Our product warranties are assurance-type warranties, which promise the customer that the products are as specified in the contract. Therefore, the product warranties are not a separate performance obligation and are accounted for as described below. Sales taxes assessed by governmental authorities and collected by us are accounted for on a net basis and are excluded from net sales.
The following table provides a disaggregation of product net sales for the periods presented (in thousands):

Total net sales$1,553 $1,055 $2,386 $1,985 
Accounts Receivable
Our trade accounts receivable consists of amounts billed to and currently due from customers. Substantially all of our customers are concentrated in the United States. In the normal course of business, we extend unsecured credit to our customers related to the sale of our products. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and the amounts due are stated at their estimated net realizable value. We maintain allowances for sales returns and credit loss to provide for the estimated number of account receivables that will not be collected. On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326. The standard adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model known as the CECL model, which is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. This standard only impacts the Company’s trade receivables. The Company decided to use the historical loss rate method of valuing its reserve for trade receivables. The reserve for credit losses is reviewed and assessed for adequacy on a quarterly basis. We take into consideration (1) any circumstances of which we are aware of a customer's inability to meet its financial obligations and (2) our judgments as to prevailing economic conditions in the industry and their impact on our customers. If circumstances change, and the financial condition of our customers is adversely affected and they are unable to meet their financial obligations, we may need to take additional allowances, which would result in an increase in our operating expense. We do not generally require collateral from our customers.
Our standard payment terms with customers are net 30 days from the date of shipment, and we do not generally offer extended payment terms to our customers, but exceptions are made in some cases for major customers or with particular orders. Accordingly, we do not adjust trade accounts receivable for the effects of financing, as we expect the period between the transfer of product to the customer and the receipt of payment from the customer to be in line with our standard payment terms.

Geographic information
All of our long-lived fixed assets are located in the United States. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, approximately 100% sales were attributable to customers in the United States. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, approximately 100% sales were attributable to customers in the United States. The geographic location of our net sales is derived from the destination to which we ship the product.
Net loss per share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential shares of common stock consist of incremental shares upon the exercise of stock options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect would be anti-dilutive.

As a result of the net loss we incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, convertible securities representing approximately 25 thousand shares of common stock were excluded from the basic loss per share calculation as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Product warranties
We warrant our commercial and MMM LED products and controls for periods generally ranging from five to ten years. One product was sold in 2020 with a twenty year warranty. Warranty settlement costs consist of actual amounts expensed for warranty, which are largely a result of the cost of replacement products or rework services provided to our customers. A liability for the estimated future costs under product warranties is maintained for products under warranty based on the actual claims incurred to date and the estimated nature, frequency, and costs of future claims. These estimates are inherently uncertain and changes to our historical or projected experience may cause material changes to our warranty reserves in the future. We continuously review the assumptions related to the adequacy of our warranty reserve, including product failure rates, and make adjustments to the existing warranty liability when there are changes to these estimates or the underlying replacement product costs, or the warranty period expires.

Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below. We classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Based on borrowing rates currently available to us for loans with similar terms, the carrying value of borrowings under our revolving credit facilities also approximates fair value.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining the appropriate levels, we perform a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities whose fair value is measured on a recurring basis. We review and reassess the fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis. Changes from one quarter to the next related to the observability of inputs in a fair value measurement may result in a reclassification between fair value hierarchy levels. There were no reclassifications for all periods presented.

The availability and costs of materials may be subject to change due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, suppliers’ allocation to other purchasers, interruptions in production by suppliers, global health issues such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and changes in exchange rates and worldwide price and demand levels. Our inability to obtain adequate supplies of materials for our products at favorable prices could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, or results of operations by decreasing our profit margins and by hindering our ability to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis. Additionally, certain vendors require advance deposits prior to the fulfillment of orders. Deposits paid on unfulfilled orders totaled $0.5 million and $0.8 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
We have certain vendors who individually represented 10% or more of our total expenditures, or whose net trade accounts payable balance individually represented 10% or more of our total net trade accounts payable, as follows:
One supplier (the latter, a related party, see Note 10 “Related Party Transactions” regarding this related party) accounted for more than 10% of our total expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. No suppliers accounted for more than 10% of our total expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
At June 30, 2024, two offshore suppliers accounted for approximately 32% and 40% (the latter, a related party, see Note 10 “Related Party Transactions”) of our trade accounts payable balance, respectively. At December 31, 2023, two offshore suppliers accounted for approximately 16% and 57% the latter a related party, see Note 10 “Related Party Transactions”) of our trade accounts payable balance, respectively.

NOTE 5. LEASES
The Company leases certain equipment, manufacturing, warehouse and office space under non-cancellable operating leases with expirations through 2027 under which it is responsible for related maintenance, taxes and insurance. As of March 25, 2022, the terms of our real estate operating lease have been modified beginning July 1, 2022 and extended through 2027. In accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), the related lease liability was remeasured and the right-of-use asset was adjusted at the time of modification. The present value of the lease obligations for the lease was calculated using an incremental borrowing rate of 16.96%, which was the Company’s blended borrowing rates (including interest, annual facility fees, collateral management fees, bank fees and other miscellaneous lender fees) on its revolving lines of credit with Crossroads Financial Group, LLC (as described below in Note 6, “Debt”) and Factors Southwest L.L.C. (as described below in Note 6, “Debt”). The weighted average remaining lease term for the operating leases is 3.0 years.

Credit facilities
On August 11, 2020, we entered into two debt financing arrangements (together, the “Credit Facilities”) that allowed for expanded borrowing capacity at a lower blended borrowing cost. We paid off and terminated the Credit Facilities during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Inventory Facility with Crossroads
The first arrangement is an inventory financing facility (the “Inventory Facility”) pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Inventory Loan Agreement”) between the Company and Crossroads Financial Group, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“Crossroads”).
On January 18, 2023, the Company and Crossroads entered into an amendment to the Inventory Loan Agreement (the “Crossroads Amendment”) to restructure and pay down the Inventory Facility. The Crossroads Amendment provided that the Company makes payments to reduce the outstanding obligations under the Inventory Facility of $750 thousand by January 20, 2023 and $250 thousand by February 15, 2023. The Company also agreed to make monthly payments of approximately $40 thousand towards the remaining outstanding obligations under the Inventory Facility, and to reduce the maximum amount that may be available to the Company under the Inventory Facility from $3.5 million to $500 thousand, subject to the borrowing base as set forth in the Inventory Loan Agreement.
Pursuant to the Crossroads Amendment, Crossroads and the Company also agreed to extend the Inventory Facility’s current term through December 31, 2023, while eliminating the minimum borrowing amount and unused line fees and reducing the monthly service fee to a lower, fixed amount. The Company also agreed to a slightly increased interest rate, which was more than offset by the reduction in the monthly service fees. Pursuant to the Crossroads Amendment, the interest rate on borrowings under the Inventory Facility per annum was a rate equal to (i) the Three-Month LIBOR rate plus 5.5% or (ii) at Crossroads’ discretion, an alternative reference rate, SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate), plus 6.00%. The Inventory Facility was paid in full on September 24, 2023, using the interest rate of 11.16% per annum, and the Company wrote off the difference of $40 thousand between the final invoice amount and the carrying value of the debt, which was recorded as interest income during the third quarter of year 2023.
Receivables Facility with FSW Funding

The second Credit Facility was a receivables financing facility (the “Receivables Facility”) pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Receivables Loan Agreement”) between the Company and Factors Southwest L.L.C. (d/b/a FSW Funding), an Arizona limited liability company (the “RF Lender”).
On February 7, 2023, the Company and the RF Lender agreed to terminate the Receivables Facility. All outstanding amounts under the Receivables Facility had been repaid prior to termination, and there were no prepayment fees in connection with termination. The Receivables Facility was secured by substantially all of the present and future assets of the Company and was subject to an intercreditor agreement with Crossroads, which intercreditor agreement was also terminated.
Promissory Notes - Related Parties
In 2022, we entered into short-term unsecured promissory notes (the “2022 Promissory Notes”) with Mei-Yun (Gina) Huang, Chiao Chieh (Jay) Huang, and Tingyu Lin. Ms. Gina Huang is a member of the Board of Directors and Mr. Jay Huang is our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). All of the 2022 Promissory Notes were exchanged for common stock on January 17, 2023.

Streeterville Notes
2022 Streeterville Note
On April 21, 2022, we entered into a note purchase agreement (the “2022 Streeterville Note Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”) pursuant to which we sold and issued to Streeterville a promissory note in the principal amount of approximately $2.0 million ( the “2022 Streeterville Note”). The 2022 Streeterville Note was issued with an original issue discount of $215 thousand and Streeterville paid a purchase price of approximately $1.8 million for the 2022 Streeterville Note, from which the Company paid $15 thousand to Streeterville for Streeterville’s transaction expenses.
The 2022 Streeterville Note had an original maturity date of April 21, 2024, and accrued interest at 8% per annum, compounded daily, on the outstanding balance. On January 17, 2023, we agreed with Streeterville to restructure and pay down the 2022 Streeterville Note and extend its maturity date to December 1, 2024 (the “2022 Streeterville Note Amendment”). We agreed to make payments to reduce the outstanding amounts of the 2022 Streeterville Note of $500 thousand by January 20, 2023 and by $250 thousand by July 14, 2023. Beginning January 1, 2024, we agreed to make twelve monthly repayments of approximately $117 thousand each. We had the right to prepay any of the scheduled repayments at any time or from time to time without additional penalty or fees.
On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “March 2023 Exchange Agreement”) with Streeterville, pursuant to which we agreed to (i) partition from the 2022 Streeterville Note a new Promissory Note (the “March 2023 Partitioned Note”) in the original principal amount of $250 thousand (the “March 2023 Exchange Amount”), (ii) cause the outstanding balance of the 2022 Streeterville Note to be reduced by an amount equal to the March 2023 Exchange Amount, and (iii) exchange (the “March 2023 Exchange”) the March 2023 Partitioned Note for 71,715 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The March 2023 Exchange was priced at-the-market under the Nasdaq rules and was effected pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). There were no gross proceeds to the Company in respect of the March 2023 Exchange, provided that $125 thousand of the March 2023 Exchange Amount was applied toward the $250 thousand payment due on or before July 14, 2023 pursuant to the 2022 Streeterville Note Amendment, and $125 thousand was credited to satisfy the December 1, 2024 required payment.
The total liability for the 2022 Streeterville Note, net of discount and financing fees, was $1.3 million at December 31, 2023.
On January 18, 2024, the Company and Streeterville entered into a payoff letter (the “Letter”) and exchange agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) to pay off the 2022 Streeterville Note early. The Letter and Exchange Agreement provided that the Company made payments to reduce the outstanding obligations under the 2022 Streeterville Note of $1.0 million in cash by January 19, 2024 and exchanges 94,440 shares of common stocks by January 23, 2024 for the remaining amount. On January 23, 2024, the 2022 Streeterville Note was terminated and the Company had no outstanding obligations to Streeterville, upon which the Company recognized a $187 thousand of gain which was included in gain on debt extinguishment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Advanced capital contribution
In October 2023, an unrelated party agreed to subscribe the Company’s common stock in the next round of private placement and transferred funds in the amount of $450 thousand. There is no restriction in use of the funds and the advanced capital contribution bears no interest. The advanced capital contribution was exchanged for common stock on March 28, 2024. See Note 8, “Stockholders’ Equity.”

NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES
As a result of the operating loss incurred during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and after the application of the annual limitation set forth under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”), it was not necessary to record a provision for U.S. federal income tax.
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had a full valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets.
The valuation allowance was recorded due to uncertainties related to our ability to realize the deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of certain net operating loss carry-forwards. The valuation allowance is based on management’s estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction and the periods over which the deferred tax assets will be recoverable.
At December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, we had a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $138.7 million and $141.0 million for federal income tax purposes ($48.0 million for state and local income tax purposes). However, due to changes in our capital structure, approximately $84.3 million of the $138.7 million is available to offset future taxable income after the application of the limitations found under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), net operating loss carry-forwards generated in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 can only offset 80% of taxable income and can be carried forward indefinitely. The $6.3 million and $9.2 million in federal net operating losses generated in 2023 and 2022, respectively, will be subject to the new limitations under the Tax Act. If not utilized, the carry-forwards generated prior to December 31, 2017 of $0.9 million will begin to expire at the end of 2024 for federal purposes and have begun to expire for state and local purposes. For a full discussion of the estimated restrictions on our utilization of net operating loss carry-forwards, please refer to Note 11, “Income Taxes,” included under Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” of our 2023 Annual Report.
NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common Stock
1-for-7 Reverse Stock Split
At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 15, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved a form of the certificate of amendment (“Certificate of Amendment”) to the Certificate of Incorporation and authorized our board of directors to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock at a ratio ranging from any whole number of at least 1-for-2 and up to 1-for-10, with the exact ratio within the foregoing range to be determined by the board of directors in its sole discretion.
On June 15, 2023, our board of directors determined to set the reverse stock split at 1-for-7 (the “Split Ratio”). The Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 15, 2023, with the reverse stock split becoming effective on June 16, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every seven shares of common stock issued and outstanding automatically combined into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split. The fractional shares were settled in cash in an amount not material to the Company. The $0.0001 par value per share of common stock and other terms of the common stock were not affected by the reverse stock split. The number of authorized shares of common stock under the Certificate of Incorporation remained unchanged at 50,000,000 shares.
Our outstanding shares of restricted stock and shares underlying our options and warrants entitling the holders to purchase shares of common stock have been adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split, as required by the terms of these securities. Also, the number of shares reserved for issuance under our existing 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, and our 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan were reduced proportionately based on the Split Ratio. Preferred shares outstanding were not affected by the reverse stock split and as such, those shares have not been adjusted.
The reverse stock split was effected solely to increase the per share trading price of the common stock to satisfy the Bid Price Rule for continued listing on Nasdaq. The common stock began trading on Nasdaq on a split-adjusted basis at the opening of trading on June 19, 2023.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report, as well as Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”).
Overview
Energy Focus, Inc. engages primarily in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of energy-efficient lighting systems and controls. We develop, market and sell high quality light-emitting diode (“LED”) lighting and controls products in the commercial market and military maritime market (“MMM”). Our mission is to enable our customers to run their facilities with greater energy efficiency, productivity, and human health and wellness through advanced LED retrofit solutions. Our goal is to be a market leader for the most demanding applications where performance, quality, value, environmental impact and health are considered paramount. We specialize in energy efficient LED lighting retrofit product, replacing fluorescent, high-intensity discharge lighting and other types of lamps in institutional buildings for primarily indoor lighting applications with our innovative, high-quality commercial and military-grade tubular LED (“TLED”) products, as well as other LED and lighting control products for commercial and consumer applications. We are also evaluating adjacent technologies, including Gallium Nitride (“GaN”) based power supplies and additional market opportunities for energy solution products that support sustainability in our existing channels.
The LED lighting industry has changed dramatically over the past several years due to increasing competition and price erosion. We have been experiencing these industry forces in both our military and commercial business since 2016, when we once commanded significant price premiums for our flicker-free TLEDs with industry leading warranties. In more recent years, we have focused on redesigning our products for lower costs and consolidated our supply chain for stronger purchasing power in an effort to price our products more competitively while not impacting the performance and quality. Despite these efforts, our legacy products continue to face extreme price competition and a convergence of product functionality in the marketplace, and we have shifted to diversifying our supply chain in an effort to increase value and remain competitive. These trends are not unique to Energy Focus as evidenced by the increasing number of industry peers facing challenges, exiting LED lighting, selling assets and even going out of business.
In addition to continuously pursuing cost reductions, our strategy to combat these trends is to innovate both our technology and product offerings with differentiated products and solutions that offer greater, distinct value. Specific examples of these products we have developed include the RedCap®, our patented emergency backup battery integrated TLED, EnFocus™, our unique dimmable/color-tunable lighting and powerline control platform that we launched in 2020, and the second generation of EnFocus™ powerline control switches and circadian lighting system. The Company have enhanced the performance of our RedCap® product providing a more user- friendly experience. We continue to evaluate our sales strategy and believe our go-to-market strategy that focuses more on direct-sales marketing, selectively expanding our channel partner network to cover territories across the country, and listening to the voice of the customer, will lead to better and more impactful product development efforts that we believe will eventually translate into larger addressable markets and greater sales growth for us.
Since year 2023, the Company has continued to make significant cost cutting efforts to address operational expenses while maintaining customer satisfaction and delivering goods on-time. Investments into Energy Focus have contributed to the ability of the Company to continue to not only provide quality products and services, but to both expand and rationalize product offerings.
It is our belief that the continued dramatic rightsizing efforts undertaken in 2023 and 2024, along with reorganization of the sales team and ongoing development of innovative, high-value products and an expanded distribution network, will over time result in improved sales and bottom-line performance for the Company.
During 2023, our MMM business continued to face challenges resulting from the delayed availability of government funding and the timing of U.S. Navy awards, with several anticipated projects facing repeated and ongoing delays. This sector also maintains very long sales cycles. The timeline between bid to order can often take at least six months, and many MMM products are built-to-order with resultant lead times before orders become revenue. We continue to pursue opportunities from the U.S. Navy and the government sector to minimize such volatility. Previously in our MMM business, significant efforts undertaken to reduce costs in our product offerings have positioned us to be more competitive along with improved production efficiencies. Such efforts allowed us to continue to win bids and proposals that helped grow our MMM sales pipeline in the second half of 2023. While we continue to aggressively seek to increase sales of our commercial
26


products, the MMM business offers us continued sales opportunities, in addition to validating our product quality and strengthening our brand trust in the marketplace. During 2023, we thoroughly reviewed and adjusted our commercial pricing position as well as our strategic relationships and partnerships within the commercial LED market space. We believe our new pricing position will give us a greater advantage than previously held against the competition and offer a more attractive entry point for our end customer base.
Meanwhile, we continue to seek additional external funding alternatives and sources to support our growth strategies, plans and initiatives. The strategic investments in 2023 and 2024 by Sander Electronics, Inc. (“Sander”), a shareholder of the Company, contributed meaningful external capital, as well as presented synergistic opportunities to improve and diversify our supply chain and product offerings.
Despite continuing progress on cost reduction throughout 2023 and 2024, the Company’s results reflect the challenges due to long and unpredictable sales cycles, unexpected delays in MMM and commercial customer retrofit budgets and project starts, and supply chain issues. There has also been continuing aggressive price competition in the lighting industry. We continue to incur losses and we have a substantial accumulated deficit, which continues to raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern at June 30, 2024.
Our Business Strategy
Demand-oriented Approach
In order to deepen our relationships with customers, we are in the process of re-establishing our service model, aiming to provide richer and more targeted customer service. We believe that by increasing opportunities for interaction with our customers, we can better understand their needs, thereby enhancing their loyalty to our brand.
To ensure that EFOI’s products, pricing, and customer service lifecycle are better aligned, we are building a comprehensive value model to ensure consistency in the products and services we provide throughout the customer journey. We have begun an in-depth analysis of our current and past top 10 customers over the last five years to identify the core factors that make them loyal customers. By analyzing this data, we hope to reveal the key elements that enhance customer stickiness, providing them with more reasons and value to stay with us. In particular, we are actively focusing on customers with high loyalty to better meet their needs. This is not only an acknowledgment of our products but also a validation of the quality of our service.
Supply-oriented Approach
EFOI is committed to adopting three main sustainable economy strategies: “Green Supply Chain”, “Green Product”, and “Green Manufacturing”, aiming to promote sustainability throughout the entire value chain. The Company is working closely with its supply chain partners to optimize recycling mechanisms and strengthen packaging design, integrating sustainable economy principles into the core of supply chain management.
Guided by the vision of “transcending traditional corporate social responsibility and creating shared value”, EFOI’s team is focusing on stakeholders, aiming to achieve a “dual profit engine” effect by combining financial performance and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. This strategy not only aligns with the Company’s responsibility and sustainability goals but is also expected to enhance overall performance and market competitiveness. EFOI's operational team's new strategy focuses on integrating environmental and economic benefits, aiming to create a win-win situation that benefits the company, society, and the environment.
Under the premise of a similar industrial environment and familiar relationships, our professional skills complement those of our supply chain partners. This foundation of cooperation enables us to more easily achieve common goals of cost reduction, profit sharing, and exploring new business opportunities. This not only strengthens our cooperative relationship but also lays a solid foundation for our joint efforts towards a better future.
Financial-oriented Approach
The Company applies strategic financial management in the below perspective.
Control and Monitoring of Assets and Liabilities
Assets: Regularly evaluate all assets, especially inventory, to ensure they remain in optimal condition in terms of value and performance. Minimize or mitigate the impact of inefficient and aging assets, focusing on assets with high efficiency and return.
27


Liabilities: Ensure a robust liability structure, optimize the cost of liabilities, and seek lower interest rates and more favorable repayment terms. Regularly review the liability situation to ensure the company’s level of liabilities remains within a safe range.
Structured Profitability
Revenue Growth: Develop diversified revenue streams, reduce dependency on single business or market, continuously optimize products and services, and enhance market competitiveness.
Cost Control: Strictly control operating costs, seek opportunities to reduce costs, and ensure the efficient use of resources to optimize operations.
Cash Flow Management: Establish a sound accounts receivable and payable management system to ensure timely collection of receivables and reasonable arrangement of payments. Maintain sufficient cash reserves to cope with potential funding shortages.

Total net sales$1,553 $1,055 $2,386 $1,985 
Net sales of $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2024 increased $0.5 million, or 47%, compared to second quarter of 2023 net sales of $1.1 million, primarily driven by an increase in MMM sales of $0.6 million, or 95%, partially offset by a
28


decrease in commercial sales of $0.1 million, or 20%. The net sales increase in the second quarter was primarily driven by our sales strategy, which led to a decrease in the proportion of commercial sales and a significant increase in the demand and shipments of MMM products for military use, along with market-adjusted pricing.
Net sales of $2.4 million for the first six months of 2024 increased $0.4 million, or 20%, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily driven by a 42% increase in MMM sales, partially offset by a 14% decrease in commercial sales. The net sales increase for the first six months of 2024 was primarily driven by our sales strategy, which led to a decrease in the proportion of commercial sales and a significant increase in the demand and shipments of MMM products for military use, along with market-adjusted pricing.
Gross Profit
Gross profit was 8% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2024. This compares with gross profit of 17% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2023. The period-over-period decrease in gross profit was driven mainly by an 8% of net sales decrease in fixed costs such as subscription fee for production, a 4% of net sales decrease in variable costs such as material cost and freight in expense, and a 20% of net sales unfavorable change in the inventory reserves.
Gross profit was 10% of net sales, for the first six months of 2024 compared to 9% of net sales, for the first six months of 2023. The year-over-year increase in gross profit was driven mainly by a 5% of net sales decrease in fixed costs such as subscription fee and rent expense for production, an 11% of net sales decrease in variable costs such as material cost and freight in expense, and a 16% of net sales unfavorable change in inventory reserves.
Operating expenses
Product development 
Product development expenses include salaries and related benefit, testing and related cost, travel, supplies, as well as overhead items, such as depreciation and facility costs. Product development costs are expensed as they are incurred.
Product development expenses were $140 thousand for the second quarter of 2024, down 5% from the second quarter of 2023. The $7 thousand decrease primarily resulted from lower payroll-related expenses due to reduction in the headcount offset by an increase in traveling expenses and product testing fees. Product development expenses relate to customization of product offerings for key customers.
Product development expenses were $268 thousand for the first six months of 2024, a $33 thousand decrease compared to $301 thousand for the first six months of 2023. The decrease is primarily related to payroll expense and decreased headcount, offset by an increase in traveling expense and product testing fee.
Selling, general and administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2024, down 52% as compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease is comprised of a combination of a $0.3 million decrease in payroll and payroll-related expenses, a reduction in accounting and consultants fees of $0.2 million, and a reduction of $60 thousand in director fees.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.1 million for the first six months of 2024, compared to $2.2 million for the first six months of 2023. The decrease is primarily due to (i) decreases in payroll and payroll related expenses of $0.5 million due to reduced headcount; (ii) a reduction in accounting and consultants expenses of $0.3 million; and (iii) a reduction of $0.1 million in director fees.
Other Expense (Income)
Interest expense
There was no interest expense for the second quarter of 2024, compared to interest expense of $69 thousand for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to early termination of the 2022 Streeterville Note. There was no actual cash interest paid in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $10 thousand in the second quarter of 2023.
29


Interest expense was $5 thousand for the first six months of 2024, compared to interest expense of $192 thousand for the first six months of 2023. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to interest attributable to the 2022 Streeterville Note. There was no actual cash interest paid for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $70 thousand in the first six months of 2023.
Gain on debt extinguishment
We recognized $187 thousand of gain on debt extinguishment for the first six months of 2024, which was related to the early termination of the 2022 Streeterville Note. There was no such gain recognized for the first six months of 2023.

Other income and expenses
Other expenses were $1 thousand for the second quarter of 2024, compared to other expenses of $14 thousand for the second quarter of 2023. Other expenses were $2 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to other expenses of $21 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Other expenses are mainly comprised of bank and collateral management fees.
Other income for the second quarter and first six months of 2024 of $4 thousand, compared to other income of $16 thousand for the second quarter and the first months of 2023. Other income are related to the reversal of credit balances recorded from online retail sales.

Provision for income taxes
Due to the operating losses incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and after application of the annual limitation set forth under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, it was not necessary to record a provision for U.S. federal income tax or various state income taxes as income tax benefits are fully offset by a valuation allowance recorded.
Net loss
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our net loss of $0.6 million decreased 53% from the net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $1.2 million. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses in the second quarter of 2024 from the second quarter of 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our net loss of $1.0 million decreased 61% over the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $2.5 million. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses in the first six months of 2024 from the first six months of 2023.
Financial condition
At June 30, 2024, we had $1.1 million in cash and no outstanding debt. We have historically incurred substantial losses, and as of June 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $154.3 million. Additionally, our sales have been concentrated among a few major customers and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, two customers accounted for approximately 40% of net sales.
In 2024 and 2023, we remain committed to building upon the transformation activities started during 2019 that sought to stabilize and regrow our business. These efforts include the following key developments that occurred during 2024 and 2023:
We reinvested in our MMM sales channel and are pursuing existing and new sales opportunities, though the sales cycles for what are frequently made-to-order products are longer than commercial offerings.
The Company has aggressively re-evaluated operating expenses, and reduced its workforce significantly throughout 2023 into 2024 to manage fixed costs.
We continued to seek additional external funding alternatives and sources to support our growth strategies, plans and initiatives.
30


During 2023 and into 2024, we closely monitored our cost control efforts to streamline our operations by closely managing all spending done throughout the Company, while carefully investing in new products and strategies that sought to reenergize sales.
We will seek to remain agile as an organization to respond to potential or continuing weakness in the macroeconomic environment and in the meantime seek to expand sales channels and enter new markets that we believe will provide additional growth opportunities. We plan to achieve profitability through developing and launching new, innovative products, our Redcap® emergency battery backup tubular TLEDs, evaluating new growth opportunities such as GaN-based power supply circuitry and other energy solution products, as well as executing on our multi-channel sales strategy that targets key verticals, such as government, healthcare, education and commercial and industrial, complemented by our marketing outreach campaigns and expanding channel partnerships. We also plan to continue to develop advanced lighting and lighting control applications built upon the EnFocusTM platform that aim to serve the commercial markets. In addition, we intend to continue to apply rigorous financial discipline in our organizational structure, decision-making, business processes and policies, strategic sourcing activities and supply chain practices to help accelerate our path towards profitability.
Liquidity and capital resources
Cash
At June 30, 2024, our cash balance was approximately $1.1 million, compared to approximately $2.0 million at December 31, 2023.

Net cash provided by ( used in) financing activities$(149)$2,599 
Net cash used in operating activities
The substantial decrease in cash used in operating activity in the first six months of year 2024 comparing against the same period last year was primarily related to:
efforts to collect accounts receivable led to increase in cash flow from accounts receivable during the first six months of year 2024 compared to the first six months of year 2023; offset by
higher accounts payable as of December 31, 2023 and efforts to manage inventory levels, reflecting more purchase activities in the fourth quarter of year 2023, led to higher cash outflows in the six months of year 2024.
Net cash used in operating activities was $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.0 million and was adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, provisions for inventory, warranty, and accounts receivable reserves and working capital changes. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we generated $1.2 million from collection of accounts receivable, $0.4 million from inventory and $0.1 million from accounts payable. We used $1.4 million from accounts payable to related party due to timing of inventory receipts and payments.
31


Net cash used in operating activities was $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.5 million and was adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, provisions for inventory, warranty, and accounts receivable reserves and working capital changes. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated $0.3 million from inventory, and $0.5 million from changes in prepaid and other assets, mainly from the receipt of $445 thousand in Employee Retention Tax Credit funds, and $0.9 million from accounts payable due to the timing of inventory receipts and payments. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we used $0.4 million through the timing of collection of accounts receivable.
Net cash used in investing activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 , the Company did not have any activities in connection with investing activities.
Net cash provided by ( used in) financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.1 million, primarily related to $0.9 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock, offset by $1.0 million related to net payments on the 2022 Streeterville Note.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.6 million, primarily related to $4.3 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock, offset by net payments on the Credit Facilities of $1.2 million and the 2022 Streeterville Note of $0.5 million.
Contractual and other obligations
