REVENUE RECOGNITIONINVESTMENTS

 

On January 1, 2018,Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value with the net unrealized gains and losses (that are deemed to be temporary) reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses and charges for other-than-temporary impairments are included in determining net income, with related purchase costs based on the first-in, first-out method. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depictevaluates its available-for-sale-investments for possible other-than-temporary impairments by reviewing factors such as the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the considerationextent to which, and length of time, an investment’s fair value has been below the company expectsCompany’s cost basis, the issuer’s financial condition, and the Company’s ability and intent to be entitledhold the investment for sufficient time for its market value to recover. For impairments that are other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized in exchangeearnings equal to the difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principlewhich the assessment is made. The fair value of the investment then becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment and in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing accounting principles generally acceptednot adjusted for subsequent recoveries in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.fair value.

LEASES

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company is also required to recognize and measure new leases at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption using a modified retrospective approach, with certain practical expedients available.

The Company early adopted Accounting Standard Codification No. (“ASC”) 842 effective July 1, 2018 and elected to apply the available practical expedients and implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. The standard had an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets but did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations or condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while the Company’s accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact in prior periods of the current year and prior year comparative periods and as a result, a cumulative-effect adjustment was not required.

The Company provides charging services at designated locations on the hosts property at which the charging station is situated. In consideration thereof, the host shares in the monthly revenue generated by the charging station on percentage basis. As the charging station monthly revenue generated is variable, the host’s monthly revenue derived there from is similarly variable. In accordance with ASC 842 the hosts’ portion of revenue is variable and not predicated on an index or rate, as defined, these payments are not within the scope ASC 842.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and non-employees, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company computes the fair value of equity-classified warrants and options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.respectively.

 

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the treasury stock or if converted method), if dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company calculated the potential diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, as follows:

Overview

 

We are a leading owner, operator and provider of electric vehicle (“EV”) charging equipment and networked EV charging services. We offer both residential and commercial EV charging equipment, enabling EV drivers to easily recharge at various location types.

 

Our principal line of products and services is our Blink EV charging network (the “Blink Network”) and EV charging equipment also(also known as electric vehicle supply equipment (“E.V.S.E.”),equipment) and EV related services. Our Blink Network isconsists of proprietary cloud-based software that operates, maintains,maintain, and tracks all of the Blink EV charging stations and the associated charging data. The Blink Network provides property owners, managers and parking companies, who we refer to as our Property Partners,“Property Partners”, with cloud-based services that enable the remote monitoring and management of EV charging stations payment processing and provide EV drivers with vital station information including station location, availability and applicable fees.

 

We offer our Property Partners a range of business models for EV charging equipment and services.services that generally fall into one of the three business models below.

 

 

In our comprehensive turnkeyTurnkey business model, we own and operate the EV charging equipment, undertakesundertake and managesmanage the installation, maintenance and related services, and we keep substantially all of the EV charging revenue.

 

In our Hybrid business model, the Property Partner incurs the installation costs, while we provide the EV charging equipment. We operate and manage the EV charging station and provide connectivity of the charging station to the Blink Network. As a result, we share a greater portion of the EV charging revenue with the Property Partner than under the turnkey business model above.

 In our Host owned business model, the Property Partner purchases, owns and manages the Blink EV charging station, incurs the installation costs of the equipment, while we provide site recommendations, connectivity to the Blink Network and optional maintenance services, and the Property Partner keeps substantially all of the EV charging revenue.

We have strategic partnerships across numerous transit/destination locations, including airports, auto dealers, healthcare/medical, hotels, mixed-use, municipal locations, multifamily residential and condos, parks and recreation areas, parking lots, religious institutions, restaurants, retailers, schools and universities, stadiums, supermarkets, transportation hubs, and workplace locations.Asof October 24, 2018, whatJune 30, 2019, we have deployed approximately 14,60614,687 charging stations deployed, of which, 6,919 are operating on the Blink network: 5.090 are4,991 were Level 2 commercial charging stations, 107 areunits, 97 were DC Fast Charging EV stationschargers and 1,722 are1,617 were residential charging units.  Ofunits in service on the remaining 7,687 charging stations, 504 areBlink Network. Additionally, as of June 30, 2019, we have approximately 403 Level 2 charging stations operatingunits deployed on other networks and approximately 7,183 are7,579 non-networked, residential Blink EV charging stations. As of October 24, 2018, we have 412The non-networked, residential Blink EV charging stations that have been sold and shipped to ourare all Property Partners that are awaiting installation and activation.Partner owned.

 

As reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, we had cash, marketable securities, working capital and an accumulated deficit of $21,304,407, $16,955,916$10,123,186, $3,032,386, $11,760,762 and $157,599,908,$163,987,328, respectively. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,237,220 and $4,130,847, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company used cash in operating activities of $5,212,306. We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that our operating expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we had net losses of $2,135,933 and $1,164,630, respectively.will eventually need to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability. These conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statement issuance date. Historically, we have been able to raise funds to support our business operations, although there can be no assurance we will be successful in raising additional funds in the future.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, being the end of the period covered by this Report, our management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed in - Item 9A. Controls and Procedures of- the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017,2018, under the heading “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” and that continued to exist as of SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2019.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

We continue to address the remediation of identified material weaknesses by hiring additional finance and accounting personnel, including a new Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) who we hired in July 2018. The CFO will monitor progress in this regard and make arrangements to obtain outside advisory and consulting services to assist with the SOX compliance effort.

Effective July 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires management to make significant judgments and estimates. As a result, we implemented changes to our internal controls related to lease evaluation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. These changes include updated accounting policies affected by ASC 842 as well as redesigned internal controls over financial reporting related to ASC 842 implementation. Additionally, management has expanded data gathering procedures to comply with the additional disclosure requirements and ongoing contract review requirements.

Except as stated above, thereThere were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

However, as part of its ongoing remediation initiative, with the help of an outside advisory and consulting firm, management plans on documenting and evaluating internal controls which include the following:

(a)Designing disclosure controls and procedures across the organization;
(b)Updating the scoping and financial risk assessment on a periodic basis;
(c)Validating the operational effectiveness of the internal controls within the recently implemented NetSuite accounting system;
(d)Preparing, formalizing and putting into effect a prioritized set of accounting policies and procedures; and
(e)Reviewing and documenting the design of various business and entity-level processes including segregation of duties among personnel, to the extent practicable, in order to separate the initiation and execution of transactions and custody of assets.

Management expects to make and report continuous progress in the effective remediation of the identified material weaknesses.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS.

 

In addition to the information set forth under Item 1A of Part I to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, the information set forth at the beginning of Management’s Discussion and Analysis entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” and updates noted below, you should consider that there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment. These risk factors may not identify all risks that we face and our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.

 

We have a history of significant losses, and if we do not achieve and sustain profitability, our financial condition could suffer.

 

We have experienced significant net losses, and we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses(loss) income of approximately $2,135,933($4.1) million and $93,620,432$1.0 million for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively, and incurred net lossesas of approximately $1,164,630 and incurred a net loss of approximately $101,134,331 during the nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our2019, our accumulated deficit at September 30, 2018 is $157,599,908.was approximately $164 million.

 

Our net loss for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018 decreased2019 increased by $91,484,499,$5,102,150, or 98%526%, to $2,135,933$4,130,847 as compared to $93,620,432net income of $971,303 for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2018. The decreaseincrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in other income (expenses) of $93,764,700.$6,052,769, partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses of $924,713 and an increase in gross profit of $25,906. Our net loss attributable to common shareholders for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 decreased by $99,969,701,$18,964,581, or 99%82%, from a loss of $23,095,428 during the 2018 period to $1,164,630 as compared to $101,134,331a net loss of $4,130,847 during the 2019 period for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Theaforementioned reasons, due to a decrease was primarilyin the dividend attributable to an increase in other income (expenses)Series C convertible preferred stockholders of $103,931,132.$607,800, as well as the deemed dividend attributable to the immediate accretion of the beneficial conversion feature related to the Series B and C convertible preferred stock of $23,458,931.

 

If our revenue grows more slowlyslower than we anticipate, or declines, or if our operating expenses are higher than we expect, we may not be able to achieve profitability and our financial condition could suffer. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Whether we can achieve cash flow levels sufficient to support our operations cannot be accurately predicted. Unless such cash flow levels are attained,achieved, we may need to borrow additional funds or sell debt or equity securities, or some combination of both, to provide funding for our operations. Such additional funding may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, orif at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within a year after the issuance date of these financial statements.

We have a significant number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of certain outstanding options, warrants and convertible preferred stock, and the issuance of such shares upon exercise or conversion will have a significant dilutive impact on our stockholders. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock following the expiration of lock-ups may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the issuance of additional shares will dilute all other stockholders.

As of November 9, 2018,August 12, 2019, there are outstanding warrants and stock options to purchase 6,852,8616,835,811 and 58,968128,408 shares of our common stock, respectively. The warrants and options have a weighted average exercise price of $4.64 and $33.10, respectively.

 

As of November 9, 2018,August 12, 2019, there are 1,747,7561,642,628 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our outstanding shares of Seriesseries D preferred stock.

 

In addition, our articles of incorporation as amended, permitspermit the issuance of up to approximately 463473 million additional shares of common stock. Thus, we have the ability to issue a substantial number of shares of common stock in the future, which would dilute the percentage ownership held by our stockholders.

We and our officers, directors and certain stockholders have agreed, subject to customary exceptions, not to, without the prior written consent of Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC, the representative of the underwriters in our February 2018 public offering, during the period ending on August 15, 2018 (180 days from February 16, 2018, the closing date of the public offering) in the case of our company and our directors and officers, and up to November 13, 2018 (270 days from February 16, 2018) in the case of certain stockholders, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of shares of our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement with respect to the registration of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any other securities of our company or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

After the lock-up agreements with certain stockholders expire: (i) on November 13, 2018 (270 days from February 16, 2018), unless waived earlier by the representative, up to 8,367,879 shares that had been locked up will be eligible for future sale in the public market. After the lock-up agreements with our directors and officers, Horton Capital and JMJ expire on August 15, 2018 (180 days from February 16, 2018), unless waived earlier by the representative, up to 7,707,819 shares (including shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our series D preferred stock) that had been locked up will be eligible for future sale in the public market. Sales of a significant number of these shares of common stock in the public market could reduce the market price of the common stock.
