CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2, contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical fact but are based on current management expectations that involve substantial risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We generally identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, any projections of revenue, gross profit, earnings or loss, tax provisions, cash flows or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies or objectives of management for future operations; any statements regarding current or future macroeconomic or industry-specific trends or events and the impact of those trends and events on us or our financial performance; any statements regarding pending investigations, legal claims or tax disputes; any statements of expectation or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing.

 

These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that could cause our actual results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, performance, prospects, opportunities, achievements or industry results, as well as those of the markets we serve or intend to serve, to differ materially from those expressed in, or suggested by, these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions regarding our present and future business strategies and the environment in which we operate. Important factors that could cause those differences include, but are not limited to:

 

 our business prospects and the prospects of our existing and prospective customers;
   
 the impact on our business and that of our customers of the current and future response by the government and businessesbusiness to the COVID-19 pandemic;
the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on the supply chain and level of business activity inincluding what is necessary to protect our industry,staff and the willingnessstaff of our customers to undertake projects in lightthe conduct of any economic uncertainties resulting from the pandemic;our business;
   
 our overall financial condition;
variations incondition, including our sales from reporting periodreduced revenue and business disruption, due to reporting period;the COVID-19 pandemic business and economic response and its consequences;
   
 the inherent uncertainty of product development and acceptance of our expanding product lines;development;
   
 regulatory, legislative and judicial developments, especially those related to changes in, and the enforcement of, cannabis laws;
   
 our ability to expand into and increasing competitive pressures in the more general CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture) industry;
   
 the ability to effectively operate our business, including servicing our existing customers and obtaining new business;
   
 our relationships with our customers and suppliers;
   
 the continuation of normal payment terms and conditions with our customers and suppliers, including our ability to obtain advance payments from our customers;

ii

 general economic conditions, our customers’ operations and access to capital, and market and business disruptions including severe weather conditions, natural disasters, health hazards, terrorist activities, financial crises, political crises or other major events, or the prospect of these events, adversely affecting demand for the products and services offered by us in the markets in which we operate;

ii

the continuation of normal supply of products from our suppliers;
   
 changes in our business strategy or development plans, including our expected level of capital expenses and working capital;
   
 our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
   
 our ability to raise equity and debt capital, as needed from time to time, to fund our operations and growth strategy, including possible acquisitions;
 our ability to identify, complete and integrate potential strategic acquisitions;
   
 future revenue being lower than expected;
   
 our ability to convert our backlog into revenue in a timely manner, or at all; and
   
 our intention not to pay dividends.

 

Although we believe that we use reasonable assumptions for these forward-looking statements, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described or identified in “Item 1A – Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, as updated from time to time in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements and projections contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are excluded fromintended to be within the safe harbor protection provided bymeaning of “forward-looking statements” in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Description of Business

 

CEA Industries Inc., formerly Surna Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated in Nevada on October 15, 20092009. We design, engineer and operates under the trade name of Surna Cultivation Technologies. We are headquartered in Boulder, Colorado.

Surna Inc. is an engineering and design company focused on sellingsell environmental control and other technologies and services tofor the Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)(“CEA”) industry. We leverage our experienceThe CEA industry is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the United States’ economy. From leafy greens (kale, Swiss chard, mustard, cress), microgreens (leafy greens harvested at the first true leaf stage), ethnic vegetables, ornamentals, and small fruits (such as strawberries, blackberries and raspberries) to bell peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes and cannabis and hemp, some producers grow crops indoors in this spaceresponse to bring value-added technology solutions to our customers that help improvemarket dynamics or as part of their overall crop quality and yield, optimize energy and water efficiency, and satisfy evolving state and local construction codes, permitting and regulatory requirements.preferred farming practice. In service of the CEA industry, our principal service and product offeringstechnologies include: (i) architectural design and licensed engineering of commercial scale thermodynamic systems specific to cultivation facilities, (ii) liquid-based process cooling systems and other climate control systems, (iii) air handling equipment and systems, (iv) LED lighting, benching and racking solutions for indoor cultivation, (v) automation and control devices, systems and technologies used for environmental, lighting and climate control, and (vi) preventive maintenance services for CEA facilities.facilities Our customers include commercial, state- and provincial-regulated CEA growers in the U.S. and Canada andas well as other international locations. Customers are those growers building new facilities and those expanding or retrofitting existing facilities. Currently, our revenue stream is derived primarily from supplying our products, services and technologies to commercial indoor facilities operating in the cannabis industry, ranging from several thousand to more than 100,000square feet. Headquartered in Louisville, Colorado, we leverage our experience in this space to bring value-added climate control solutions to our customers that help improve their overall crop quality and yield, optimize energy and water efficiency, and satisfy the evolving state and local codes, permitting and regulatory requirements. Although most of our customers do, we neither produce nor sell cannabis or its related products.

 

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted national, regional,impact of the government and local governments, including those in the markets that the Company operates in, to implement preventative or protective measures to control its spread. As a result, there have been disruptions in business operations around the world, with an impact on our business.

In oureconomic response to the COVID-19 pandemic has affected demand across the majority of our markets and the governmentdisrupted work on projects. The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have continued adverse effects on our sales, project implementation, supply chain infrastructure, operating margins, and business response, the Company took and continues to take measures to adjust its operations as necessary. In early 2020 the Company took measures to reduce expenses in light of reduced orders and to preserve cash, many of which were reversed by the end of the year when orders picked up and the overall business climate improved. Because the pandemic continues in different parts of the world and in different ways in the United States, the Company continues to actively monitor its operations and sales efforts and will make adjustments to its operations as necessary.working capital.

 

We are experiencing unexpectedThe resulting effects and uncontrollable delays with our international supply of products and shipmentsuncertainties from vendors due to a significant increase in shipments to U.S. ports, less cargo being shipped by air, a general shortage of containers, and domestic truck driver availability. While these delays have moderately improved in recent months, we, along with many other importers of goods across all industries, continue to experience severe congestion and extensive wait times for carriers at ports across the United States. In addition, restrictions imposed by local, state and federal agencies due to the COVID-19 pandemic, have ledincluding the depth and duration of the disruptions to reduced personnel of importers, government staff and others in our supply chain. We have been working diligently with our network of freight partnerscustomers and suppliers, its future effect on our business, on our results of operations, and on our financial condition, cannot be predicted. We expect that the economic disruptions will continue to expedite delivery dateshave an effect on our business over the longer term. Despite this uncertainty, we continue to monitor costs and provide solutionscontinue to take actions to reduce furthercosts in order to mitigate the impact and delays. However, we are unable to determine the full impact of these delays and how long they will continue as they are out of our control.

While the Company is continuing to navigate the financial, operational, and personnel challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic to the full extentbest of our ability. However, these actions may not be sufficient in the long run to avoid reduced sales, increased losses and reduced operating cash flows in our business. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company experienced significant delays in the receipt of equipment it had ordered to meet its customer orders due to disruption and delays in its supply chain arising from the long-term effects of the impact onCOVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, our operational and financial performance will depend onrevenue recognition of these customer sales has been delayed until future developments, includingperiods when the duration and spreadshipment of the pandemic, the potential uncertainty related to and proliferation of new strains, and related actions taken by the U.S. government, state and local government officials, and international governments to prevent disease spread, all of which are uncertain, out of our control and cannotthese orders can be predicted at this time.

Financial Statement Presentation

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. The Company continues to experience recurring losses since its inception. As a result, in order to continue as a going concern, the Company has been reliant on the ability to obtain additional sources of financing to fund growth. As indicated in Note 9 – Shareholders Equity (Deficit) below, on February 15, 2022, the Company received approximately $22,000,000 in proceeds from completion of an equity offering. Based on management’s evaluation, the proceeds from the Offering will be more than sufficient to fund any deficiencies in working capital or cash flow from operations, and the Company is confident that it will be able to meet its obligations as they come due, and fund operations for at least 12 months after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. Accordingly, the conditions around liquidity and limited working capital necessary to fund operations have been addressed.

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and note disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.2022. The balance sheet as of December 31, 20202021 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis.2021.

Principles of Consolidation and Reclassifications

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled and wholly owned subsidiary,subsidiaries, Hydro Innovations, LLC (“Hydro”) and Surna Cultivation Technologies LLC (“SCT”). Intercompany transactions, profit, and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Going ConcernReverse Stock Split

On January 17, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-one hundred and fifty. Such reverse stock split was implemented effective January 27, 2022. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced recurring losses since its inception. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally through debt and equity financing, customer deposits and revenues from completed contracts. Management expects to incur additional losses and cash outflows in the foreseeable future in connection with its operating activities. Management believes that the economic dislocations in the overall economy, in the near term, will impact our revenues, losses and cash flows. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise debt or equity financing in sufficient amounts, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all. If results of operations for 2021 do not meet management’s expectations, or additional capital is not available, management believes it has the ability to reduce certain expenditures. The precise amount and timing of the funding needs cannot be determined accurately at this time, and will depend on a number of factors, including the overall economy, market demandpar value for the Company’s products and services,Common Stock was not affected.

As a result of this reverse stock split, the quality of product development efforts, management of working capital, and continuation of normal payment terms and conditions for purchasenumber of the Company’s products. The Company believes its cash balancesshares of common stock issued and cash flowoutstanding as of December 31, 2021, was reduced from operations will be insufficient240,125,224 to fund its operations1,600,835.

All Common Stock, warrants, options and per share amounts set forth herein are presented to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Split for the next 12 months. If the Company is unable to substantially increase revenues, reduce expenditures, or otherwise generate cash flows from operations, then the Company will need to raise additional funding to continue as a going concern. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date the financial statements are issued. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.all periods presented.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates include: allocation of transaction prices to performance obligations under contracts with customers, standalone selling prices, timing of expected revenue recognition on remaining performance obligations under contracts with customers, valuation of intangible assets, valuation of equity-based compensation, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, warranty accruals, accounts receivable and inventory allowances, and legal contingencies.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

 

All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company may, from time to time, have deposits in financial institutions that exceed the federally insured amount.amount of $250,000. As of March 31, 2022, the balance in the Company’s account was approximately $22,034,000, consequently $21,784,000 of this balance was not insured by the FDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses to date on depository accounts.

 

Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including stock options, warrants and restricted stock units and other equity-based awards, except in cases where the effect of the common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. Potential common stock equivalents consist of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and the vesting of restricted stock units using the treasury method.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, there were warrants and options outstanding to purchase Company common stock and shares of convertible preferred stock and restricted stock units that were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. During the three- and nine-month periodsthree-month period ended September 30, 2021 and 2020,March 31, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss and consequently the common share equivalents of these potentially dilutive equity instruments have not been included in the calculations of loss per share because such inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

As of September 30,March 31, 2022, and 2021, and 2020, there were respectively, 116,683,2018,021,057 and 44,007,500201,662, potentially dilutive equity instruments outstanding in respect of shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants and options outstanding to purchase Company common stock.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company recorded goodwill in connection with its acquisition of Hydro Innovations, LLC in July 2014. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that fair value of the reporting unit has been reduced to less than its carrying value. The Company performs a quantitative impairment test annually on December 31 by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is considered not impaired. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The Company determined that it has one reporting unit.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company concluded that the projected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its sales, contract completion and revenues in the near term, together with the volatility in its share price during the quarter represented potential indicators of impairment. Accordingly, the Company performed an interim impairment analysis at September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and concluded that no impairment relating to goodwill existed at September 30, 2021.

Temporary Equity

 

Shares of preferred stock that are redeemable for cash or other assets are classified as temporary equity if they are redeemable, at the option of the holder, at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer. Redeemable equity instruments are initially carried at the fair value of the equity instrument at the issuance date, net of issuance costs, which is subsequently adjusted to redemption value (including the amount for dividends earned but not yet declared or paid) at each balance sheet date if the instrument is currently redeemable or if it is probable that the instrument will become redeemable.

The Company determined it is probable the Series B Preferred Stock will become redeemable at the option of the holder. As a result, on September 30, 2021, the Company adjusted carrying value of the Series B Preferred Stock to its redemption value of $3,960,000 and recorded a $2,262,847 non-cash redemption value adjustment. This redemption value adjustment is treated as similar to a dividend on the preferred stock for GAAP purposes, accordingly, the redemption value adjustment is therefore added to the “Net Loss” to arrive at “Net Loss Attributable to Common Shareholders’” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, as the Company does not have a balance of retained earnings, the redemption value adjustment was recorded against additional paid-in capital.

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (“ASC 606” or the “revenue standard”) to all contracts and elected the modified retrospective method.

The following table sets forth the Company’s revenue by source:

For the Three Months Ended

March 31,

 
  2022  2021 
Equipment and systems sales $1,642,572  $2,163,468

Shipping and handling  15,806   21,978 
Total revenue $1,744,427  $2,366,529 

 

Revenue Recognition Accounting Policy Summary

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606. Under the revenue standard, a performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. Most of the Company’s contracts contain multiple performance obligations that include engineering and technical services as well as the delivery of a diverse range of climate control system equipment and components, which can span multiple phases of a customer’s project life cycle from facility design and construction to equipment delivery and system installation and start-up. The Company does not provide construction services or system installation services. Some of the Company’s contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, typically engineering only services contracts.

 

A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on standalone selling price. When estimating the selling price, the Company uses various observable inputs. The best observable input is the Company’s actual selling price for the same good or service, however, this input is generally not available for the Company’s contracts containing multiple performance obligations. For engineering services, the Company estimates the standalone selling price by reference to certain physical characteristics of the project, such as facility size and mechanical systems involved, which are indicative of the scope and complexity of the mechanical engineering services to be provided. For equipment sales, the standalone selling price is determined by forecasting the expected costs of the equipment and components and then adding an appropriate margin, based on a range of acceptable margins established by management. Depending on the nature of the performance obligations, the Company may use a combination of different methods and observable inputs if certain performance obligations have highly variable or uncertain standalone selling prices. Once the selling prices are determined, the Company applies the relative values to the total contract consideration and estimates the amount of the transaction price to be recognized as each performance obligationpromise is fulfilled.

 

Generally, satisfaction occurs when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer or as services are rendered or completed in exchange for consideration in an amount for which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company recognizes revenue for the sale of goods when control transfers to the customer, which primarily occurs at the time of shipment. The Company’s historical rates of return are insignificant as a percentage of sales and, as a result, the Company does not record a reserve for returns at the time the Company recognizes revenue. The Company has elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes (e.g., sales, use, value added, and certain excise taxes) that are assessed by a governmental authority in connection with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from the customer. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue net of sales taxes. The revenue and cost for freight and shipping is recorded when control over the sale of goods passes to the Company’s customers.

 

The Company also has performance obligations to perform certain engineering services that are satisfied over a period of time. Revenue is recognized from this type of performance obligation as services are rendered based on the percentage completion towards certain specified milestones.

The Company offers assurance-type warranties for its products and products manufactured by others to meet specifications defined by the contracts with customers and does not have any material separate performance obligations related to these warranties. The Company maintains a warranty reserve based on historical warranty costs.

 

Other Judgments and Assumptions

The Company typically receives customer payments in advance of its performance of services or transfers of goods. Applying the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-32-18, which the Company has elected, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component since the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Accordingly, the remaining performance obligations related to customer contracts does not consider the effects of the time value of money.

Applying the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, the Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred since the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. These costs include certain sales commissions and incentives, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, and are payable only when associated revenue has been collected and earned by the Company.

 

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. The Companyreceives payments from customers based on the terms established in its contracts.

Contract assets include unbilled amounts where revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer and the right of payment is conditional, subject to completing a milestone, such as a phase of a project. The Company typically does not have material amounts of contract assets since revenue is recognized as control of goods isare transferred or as services are performed. As of March 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company had no contract assets.

Contract liabilities consist of advance payments in excess of revenue recognized. The Company’s contract liabilities are recorded as a current liability in deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets since the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue is generally less than one year. As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, deferred revenue.revenue, which was classified as a current liability, was $5,485,416 and $2,839,838, respectively.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $283,4521,162,374 and $3,357,068, respectively, related to the deferred revenue at January 1, 2021.2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $9,1411,880,634 and $1,074,016, respectively, related to the deferred revenue at January 1, 2020.2021.

Remaining Performance Obligations

 

Remaining performance obligations, or backlog, represents the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining obligations that the Company has not performed under its customer contracts. The Company has elected not to use the optional exemption in ASC 606-10-50-14, which exempts an entity from such disclosures if a performance obligation is part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less. Accordingly, the information disclosed about remaining performance obligations includes all customer contracts, including those with an expected duration of one year or less.

 

Industry uncertainty, project financing concerns, and the licensing and qualification of our prospective customers, which are out of the Company’s control, make it difficult for the Company to predict when it will recognize revenue on its remaining performance obligations. There are risks that the Company may not realize the full contract value on customer projects in a timely manner or at all, and completion of a customer’s cultivation facility project is dependent upon the customer’s ability to secure funding and real estate, obtain a license and then build their cultivation facility so they can take possession of the equipment. Accordingly, the time it takes for customers to complete a project, which corresponds to when the Company is able to recognize revenue, is driven by numerous factors including: (i) the large number of first-time participants interested in the indoor cannabis cultivation business; (ii) the complexities and uncertainties involved in obtaining state and local licensure and permitting; (iii) local and state government delays in approving licenses and permits due to lack of staff or the large number of pending applications, especially in states where there is no cap on the number of cultivators; (iv) the customer’s need to obtain cultivation facility financing; (v) the time needed, and coordination required, for our customers to acquire real estate and properly design and build the facility (to the stage when climate control systems can be installed); (vi) the large price tag and technical complexities of the climate control and air sanitation system; (vii) the availability of power; and (viii) delays that are typical in completing any construction project.

(Unaudited)fulfill its backlog, and the Company may experience contract cancellations, project scope reductions and project delays.

 

As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company’s remaining performance obligations, or backlog, was $9,881,00011,179,000, of which $.1,161,000, or 12%, was attributable to customer contracts for which the Company has only received an initial advance payment to cover the allocated value of the Company’s engineering services (“engineering only paid contracts”). There is the risk that the equipment portion of these engineering only paid contracts will not be completed or will be delayed. These reasons include the customer being dissatisfied with the quality or timeliness of the Company’s engineering services, delay or abandonment of the project because of the customer’s inability to obtain project financing or licensing, or other reasons such as a challenging business climate including an overall post-Covid-19 economic disruption or change in business direction. After the customer has made an advance payment for a portion of the equipment to be delivered under the contract (“partial equipment paid contracts”), the Company is typically better able to estimate the timing of revenue recognition since the risks and delays associated with licensing, permitting and project funding are typically mitigated once the initial equipment payment is received. There is significant uncertainty regarding the timing of the Company’s recognition of revenue on its remaining performance obligations, and there is no certainty that these will result in actual revenues. The backlog at September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, includes booked sales orders of $1,250,0002,217,000 from several customers that the Company does not expect to be realized until late 2022.

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the cost resulting from all share-based compensation arrangements, including stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units that the Company grants under its equity incentive plan in its condensed consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair value. The expense is recognized over the requisite service period or performance period of the award. Awards with a graded vesting period based on service are expensed on a straight-line basis for the entire award. Awards with performance-based vesting conditions, which require the achievement of a specific company financial performance goal at the end of the performance period and required service period, are recognized over the performance period. Each reporting period, the Company reassesses the probability of achieving the respective performance goal. If the goals are not expected to be met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized amount recorded is reversed. If the award contains market-based vesting conditions, the compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value and expected achievement of market condition and is not subsequently reversed if it is later determined that the condition is not likely to be met or is expected to be lower than initially expected.

 

The grant date fair value of stock options is based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (the “Black-Scholes Model”). The Black-Scholes Model requires judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected term, both based on historical experience. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates whose term is consistent with the expected term of the option. The Company determines the assumptions used in the valuation of option awards as of the date of grant. Differences in the expected stock price volatility, expected term or risk-free interest rate may necessitate distinct valuation assumptions at those grant dates. As such, the Company may use different assumptions for options granted throughout the year. During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the valuation assumptions used to determine the fair value of each option award on the date of grant were: expected stock price volatility ranged from 150.2158.21% to 152.51158.70%; expected term in years 10 and risk-free interest rate ranged from 0.55%1.52% to 1.491.98%.

The grant date fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is based on the closing price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant.

 

The Company has elected to reduce share-based compensation expense for forfeitures as the forfeitures occur since the Company does not have historical data or other factors to appropriately estimate the expected employee terminations and to evaluate whether particular groups of employees have significantly different forfeiture expectations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires companies to apply ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. This creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principle in ASC 805, which uses fair value. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance should be applied prospectively. The impact of the standard on Company’s consolidated financial statements is dependent on the size and frequency of any future acquisitions the Company may complete.

 

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. This guidance clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options due to a lack of explicit guidance in the FASB Codification. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date. The Company anticipates that the adoption of this guidance willhas not havehad a material impact on itsthe Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2022 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2021. The early adoption of ASU 2020-06 impacted the Company’s accounting for the issuance of its Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock as further discussed in Note 8 Temporary Equity Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock below.

In March 2020, the FAS issued ASU No. 2020-04 “Reference Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

 

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force). This update clarifies whether an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative and how to account for certain forward contracts and purchased options to purchase securities. For public entities, this guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position. The adoption of this ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

 

Note 2 – Leases

��

In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842” or the “new lease standard”). The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, using the effective date method.

 

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company has elected to apply the “package of practical expedients” which allow the Company to not reassess: (i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, (ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or (iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard. The Company has also elected to apply the short-term lease exemption for all leases with an original term of less than 12 months, for purposes of applying the recognition and measurements requirements in the new lease standard.

On July 28, 2021, the Company recognized itsentered into an agreement to lease for11,491 square feet of office and manufacturing and office space (the “Facility“New Facility Lease”) on the balance sheet as an operating lease right-of-use asset, in the amount of $714,416 and as a lease liability of $822,374.Louisville, CO. The New Facility Lease commenced September 29, 2017on November 1, 2021 and continues through AugustJanuary 31, 2022.2027. From November 2021 through January 2022, the monthly rent was abated. Beginning February 2022, the monthly rent is $10,055 and will increase by 3% annually every November through the end of the New Facility Lease term. Pursuant to the New Facility Lease, the Company made a security deposit of $14,747. The Company has the option to renew the New Facility Lease for an additional five yearsyears. Additionally, the Company pays the actual amounts for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. The New Facility Lease agreement contains customary events of default, representations, warranties, and covenants.

Upon commencement of the New Facility Lease, the Company recognized on the balance sheet an operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability in the amount of $582,838. However,The lease liability was initially measured as the present value of the unpaid lease payments at commencement and the ROU asset was initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. The renewal option to extend the New Facility Lease is not included in the right-of-use asset or lease liability, as the option is not reasonably certain of exercise.to be exercised. The Company regularly evaluates the renewal option and when it is reasonably certain of exercise, the Company will include the renewal period in its lease term.

Beginning September 1, 2018, and each subsequent September 1 during the term, the monthly rent under the Facility Lease will increase by 3%. Total rent under the current building lease is charged to expense over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis, resulting in the same monthly rent expense throughout the lease. The difference between the rent expense amount and the actual rent paid is recorded to operating lease liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Under the Facility Lease, the landlord agreed to pay the Company or the Company’s contractors for tenant improvements made by the Company not to exceed $100,000, which were used for normal tenant improvements. The Company determined that these improvements were not specialized and could be utilized by a subsequent tenant and, as such, the improvements were considered assets of the lessor. As of January 1, 2019, the unamortized amount of tenant improvement allowance of $81,481 was treated as a reduction in measuring the right-of-use asset.

Under the Facility Lease, the Company pays the actual amounts for property taxes and insurance, excludes such payments from lease contract consideration, and records such payments as incurred. The Company also pays the landlord for common area maintenance, which is considered a nonlease component. For the Facility Lease, the Company has not elected the accounting policy to include both the lease and nonlease components as a single component and account for it as the lease.

In determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability, the Company applied a discount rate to the minimum lease payments under the Facility Lease. ASC 842 requires the Company to use the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Since the discount rate is not implicit in the lease agreement, we utilized an estimated incremental borrowing rate provided by the Company’s depository bank.

On April 30, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to sublease approximately 6,900 square feet of its office and manufacturing space. The sublease commenced on April 30, 2021 and will continue on a month-to-month basis until either party gives 30-days’ notice. Unless 30-days’ notice is provided sooner, this sublease will end upon termination of the Company’s Lease Agreement with its current landlord. Rent was initially charged at $5,989 per month and increased to $11,978 per month effective July 1, 2021. The Sublessor is also responsible for its prorated share of utilities and other related costs. This new sublease does not change the Company’s legal relationship or financial obligations with its landlord. The Company continues to be responsible for all the remaining financial obligations under its existing lease with the landlord. Accordingly, entering into the new sublease did not impact the carrying value of the Company’s operating lease right of use asset or operating lease liability. Moreover, after an initial two-month transitional period, the rental rate per square foot under the new sublease is identical to the rental rate per square foot for the Company’s existing lease with its landlord which indicates that there is no impairment to the carrying value of the Company’s operating lease right of use asset.

On July 27, 2021, the Company entered into a Lease Termination Agreement with its current landlord for the 18,952 square foot office and manufacturing facility in Boulder, CO, which was previously scheduled to expire on August 31, 2022. The termination provides for the Company to vacate the facility no later than November 15, 2021. In exchange for early termination from its lease obligation, the Company paid a nominal lease termination fee on July 28, 2021. The termination was also contingent upon a successor tenant executing a new lease with the landlord and the Company paying the remaining deferred rent and security deposit amounts (See Contractual Payment Obligations section). The landlord and successor tenant entered into a lease agreement on July 27, 2021. The remaining deferred rent and security deposit will be paid in conjunction with the final rent payment.

On July 28, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to lease 11,491 square feet of office and manufacturing space in Louisville, CO. The lease commences on November 1, 2021 and continues through January 31, 2027. The Company has the option to renew the lease for an additional 60-month period.

Note 12 – Income Taxes

As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company has U.S. federal and state net operating losses (“NOLs”) of approximately $20,260,00022,514,000, of which $11,196,26111,196,000 will expire, if not utilized, in the years 2034 through 2037,, however, NOLs generated subsequent to December 31, 2017 do not expire but may only be used against taxable income to 80%80%. In response to the novel coronavirus COVID-19, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act temporarily repealed the 80%80% limitation for NOLs arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020. Pursuant

In addition, pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, use of the Company’s NOLs carryforwards may be limited in the event of cumulative changes in ownership of more than 50%50% within a three-year period. In addition, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as a greater than 50% change, by value, in its equity ownership over a three-year period.

Surna Inc.

Notes, the corporation’s ability to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income or taxes may be limited. Our sale of securities, both in September 30, 2021

(in US Dollars except share numbers)

(Unaudited) and February 2022, will need to be considered for determination of any “ownership change” that we have undergone during a determination period. If an ownership change occurs and our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards is materially limited, it would harm our future bottom-line operating results by effectively increasing our future tax obligations

 

The Company must assess the likelihood that its net deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, and to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, the Company establishes a valuation allowance. Management’s judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against the net deferred tax assets. The Company recorded a full valuation allowance as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. Based on the available evidence, the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will not be able to utilize its net deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to maintain valuation allowances until sufficient evidence exists to support the reversal of such valuation allowances. The Company makes estimates and judgments about its future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with the Company’s plans. Should the actual amounts differ from the Company’s estimates, the carrying value of the Company’s deferred tax assets could be materially impacted.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way to view aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. For purposes of this Quarterly Report, (i) “adjusted net income (loss)” and “adjusted operating income (loss)” mean GAAP net income (loss) and operating income (loss), respectively, after adjustment for non-cash equity compensation expense, debt-related items and depreciation expense, and (ii) “net bookings” means new sales contracts executed during the quarter for which we received an initial deposit, net of any adjustments including cancellations and change orders during the quarter.

Our backlog, remaining performance obligations and net bookings may not be indicative of future operating results, and our customers may attempt to renegotiate or terminate their contracts for a number of reasons, including delays in or inability to obtain project financing or licensing or abandonment of the project entirely. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that contracts included in the backlog or remaining performance obligations will actually generate revenues or when the actual revenues will be generated.

Overview

 

Surna Inc.CEA Industries is an engineering and design company focused on selling environmental control and other technologies and services to the Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)(“CEA”) industry. WeThe CEA industry uses technology-based methods to grow crops in a way that provides protection from the outdoor elements; these methods have traditionally included indoor agriculture and vertical farming. The CEA industry aims to optimize the use of horticultural resources such as water, energy, space, capital and labor, to create an agriculture business that is more efficient and more productive than traditional farming methods.

Headquartered in Colorado, we leverage our experience in this spacethe CEA industry to bring our customers a variety of value-added technology solutions to our customers that help improve their overall crop quality and yield, optimize energy and water efficiency, and satisfy the evolving state and local codes, permitting and regulatory requirements. In serviceWe do this by offering our customers a variety of the CEA industry, our principal service and product offerings that include: (i) architectural design and licensed engineering of commercial scale thermodynamic systems specific to cultivation facilities, (ii) liquid-based process cooling systems and other climate control systems, (iii) air handling equipment and systems, (iv) LED lighting, benching and racking solutions for indoor cultivation, (v) automation and control devices, systems and technologies used for environmental, lighting and climate control, and (vi) preventive maintenance services for CEA facilities. Our customers include commercial, state- and provincial-regulated CEA growers in the U.S. and Canada and other international locations. Customers are those growers building new facilities and those expanding or retrofitting existing facilities.

Currently, our revenue stream is derived primarily from supplying our products, services and technologies to commercial indoor facilities operating in the cannabis industry, rangingindustry. Our customers include state and provincial-regulated CEA growers located in the U.S., Canada and other international locations. They are focused on building new CEA facilities and expanding or retrofitting existing CEA facilities. Our customers operate CEA facilities that range in size from several thousand square feet to more than 100,000 square feet.

All CEA facility operators are facing multiple headwinds ofgrowers currently face a challenging business environment that includes high energy costs, issues about water usage and conservation issues, and continuously evolving waste materials, and, in the case ofremoval regulations. In addition to these issues, our cannabis growing customers face increasingly rigorous quality standards and declining cannabis prices. To be competitive, among other things,prices in a growing industry whose standards are constantly evolving. A primary challenge for our customers must developinvolves finding innovative ways to meet the demands of their business and reduce energy costs. On average, 50% of our customers’ energy costs 90% ofare driven by HVACD systems and another 40% by lighting systems.

We support our clients by providing integrated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (“MEP”) engineering design, proprietary and curated environmental control equipment, and automation offerings that serve the CEA industry. In addition, we believe we are among the leading experts in engineering environmental control systems for CEA facilities, which is typically relatedcommonly viewed as the most challenging component of a CEA facility’s technical infrastructure. Over our 16 years in business, we have served over 200 commercial indoor CEA facilities. While a professional engineer (“PE”) license is not required in any other design component of a CEA facility, such a license is required for the design of a CEA facility’s environmental control equipment, and our senior engineers hold PE licenses.

We believe our customers partner with us because we have the reputation and experience to help them make cost-conscious and effective decisions on their HVACD (50%environmental and climate control systems. Our clients are focused on their crops and rely on us to partner with them on ways to optimize their CEA facility. We are also mindful of the evolving and substantial environmental sustainability standards and concerns raised by governments, consumers and other stakeholders. CEA facilities are resource intensive, and a growing list of states have implemented building code changes that limit energy consumption in cultivation facilities. Energy and resource efficiency is a high priority to us as engineers, and the senior engineers on our team hold the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) credential. In addition, our CEO helped build a cleantech company, and lighting systems (40%).is a published author in the energy efficient technologies space. We believe this sustainability-focused technical experience is a unique advantage that our customers value when working with us.

While the Company historically focused on HVACD systems, have historically been our focus, but in May of 2021, we announced an initiative to expand our product and service offerings to include most of the technical product and service infrastructure ofrequirements associated with building and retrofitting CEA facilities, as well as post-build recurring maintenance services. We often have the advantage ofOur engineering design services and consulting expertise facilitates early engagement with our customers at the pre-build and construction phases, and this enables us to better understand our customers’ goals at the corresponding opportunitybeginning of a project, and provide the associated infrastructure products and services to build longer-termreach those goals. Through our prior engagements with customers, we have built long-term relationships with our existing customers, and their facilities. Going forward, ourwhich we plan is to leverage our existing customer relationships and attempt to sell them additional products and services, thereby becoming “stickier” to our customers.build on in the future.

 

We have three core assets that we believe are important towill support us as we pursue our going-forward business strategy. First, we have multi-yearenjoy strong relationships with customers and othersrelevant stakeholders in the CEA industry, notablyindustry. Largely focused in the cannabis segment.segment, our partnerships include relationships with new and existing growers, capital providers, consultants, independent contractors, and numerous others. Second, we haveour experience in this industry over time has built up specialized engineering know-how and experience gatheredexperience. We have been serving indoor cultivators since 2006 and designing CEA cultivation facilities since 2016. Since then, we have tested and solidified best practices from designing environmental control systems for CEA cultivation facilities since 2016. Third,facilities. Finally, we have a line of proprietary environmental control products whichthat support the specific growing environments that our customers want. We believe these products offer significant benefits to our customers and we are in the process of expanding.

We are an integrated provider of MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) engineering design, proprietary environmental control equipment, and controls and automation offerings serving the CEA industry. Historically, nearly all ofexpanding our customers have been in the cannabis cultivation business. We believe our employees have more experience than most other MEP firms serving this industry. Our customers engage us for their environmental and climate control systems because they want experts to design their facilities, and they come to us because of our reputation. We leverage our reputation and know-how against the many local contractors and MEP engineers who collectively constitute our largest competitors.product slate.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted national, regional, and local governments, including those in the markets that the Company operates in, to implement preventative or protective measures to control its spread, but asspread. As a result, there have been disruptions in business operations around the world, with an impact on our business.

 

In our response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated government and business response, the Company took and continues to take measures to adjust its operations as necessary. In early 2020 the Company took measuresresponded to reducereduced orders by reducing expenses in light of reduced orders andan effort to preserve cash, manycash. As 2020 progressed and our sales rebounded, and we were able to obtain additional funds through a forgivable bank loan, we restored our workforce increased our operations. Many of whichthe expense reductions were reversed by the end of the year2021 when orders picked up and the overall business climate improved. Because the pandemic continues in different parts of the world and in different ways in the United States, the Company continues to actively monitor its operations and sales efforts and will make adjustments to its operations as necessary.operations.

 

We are experiencing unexpected and uncontrollable delays with our international supply of products and shipments from vendors due to a significant increase in shipments to U.S. ports, lesscompounded by a reduction in cargo being shipped by air, a general shortage of containers, and a shortage of domestic truck driver availability. While these delays have moderately improved in recent months, we, along with many other importers of goods across all industries, continue to experience severe congestion and extensive wait times for carriers at ports across the United States. In addition, restrictions imposed by local, state and federal agencies due to the COVID-19 pandemic hashave led to reduced personnel of importers, government staff and others in our supply chain. We have been working diligently with our network of freight partners and suppliers to expedite delivery dates and provide solutions to reduce further impact and delays. However, we are unable to determine the full impact of these delays and how long they will continue as they are out of our control.

 

While the Company is continuing to navigate the financial, operational, and personnel challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic, the potential uncertainty related to and(and proliferation ofof) new strains, and related actions taken by the U.S. government,federal, state, local and localinternational government officials, and international governments to prevent diseaseand manage the spread all of whichCOVID-19. All of these efforts are uncertain, out of our control, and cannot be predicted at this time.

 

Impact of Ukranian Conflict

Currently, we believe that the conflict between Ukraine and Russia does not have any direct impact on our operations, financial condition or financial reporting. We believe the conflict will have only a general impact on our operations in the same manner as it is having a general impact on all businesses that have their operations limited to North America resulting from international sanction and embargo regulations, possible shortages of goods and goods incorporating parts that may be supplied from the Ukraine or Russia, supply chain challenges, and the international and US domestic inflationary results of the conflict and government spending for and funding of our country’s response. As our operations are related only to the North American controlled agricultural industry, largely within the cannabis space, we do not believe we will be targeted for cyber-attacks. We have no operations in the countries directly involved in the conflict or are specifically impacted by any of the sanctions and embargoes, as we principally operate in the United States and Canada. We do not believe that the conflict will have any impact on our internal control over financial reporting. Other than general securities market trends, we do not have reason to believe that investors will evaluate the company as having special risks or exposures related to the Ukranian conflict.

Our Corporate Strategy

Our strategy for growing the Company and increasing shareholder value is informed by two key pillars:

Pursue Organic Growth OpportunitiesExecute on Consolidation Opportunities

Pursue aggressive organic growth. According to New Frontier Data and Grandview Research, the legal cannabis market and the global indoor farming markets are forecasted to grow at a 15% annual rate for the foreseeable future. This is largely driven by the cannabis cultivation market we currently focus on, and the rapidly growing popularity of the vertical farming market.

We are well positioned to build our business by serving both of these segments, by servicing current and future customers to the CEA industry, and by expanding our customer base to include indoor farming growers. In May of 2021 we announced a series of pivots, to better enable the Company to grow organically:

Expansion to New Markets. We expanded our business development plan to include the pursuit of non-cannabis CEA facilities, which includes indoor cultivation farms and other CEA technology users outside of the cannabis industry. This expansion has approximately doubled our potential addressable market without any additional upfront retrofit costs to our Company.

Expansion of Product Offering. As previously noted, the Company historically focused on offering HVACD systems to help our existing CEA clients manage their environmental control issues. While significant, this offering represented approximately one third of the total slate of potential products and services required to help a grower build and maintain a CEA facility. We continue to believe that our clients want to focus on growing plants, while leaving the technical infrastructure buildout and maintenance to a more experienced partner. As part of our May 2021 initiative, we expanded our product and service offerings by including almost all of the primary technologies and services required to build and maintain a CEA facility. This expansion includes architectural design, lighting, benching, sensing & control systems, and CO2 dosing and control. It also includes maintenance services and other post-build products and services that create more recurring revenue streams than the product set we traditionally offered.

Our Corporate Strategy

The three key pillarsFor example, by offering Facility Selection & Design services, we plan to establish ‘pre-build’ customer relationships with prospects at the earliest opportunity in the lifecycle of the CEA facility. From there, we plan to offer nearly every piece of the technical infrastructure required in a facility, engaging with our corporate strategycustomers at the earliest possible moment to provide all products and services required for growing the Company and increasing shareholder value are:buildout of their CEA facility. Once a CEA facility is built, our Preventive Maintenance Services will provide recurring revenue, as we maintain the productivity of the facility for the facility’s full life.

 

1 – Pursue aggressive organic growth; and

2 – Seek strategic relationships, mergers, and acquisitions to add to our existing business; and

3 – Pursue an uplisting to a national exchange and seek additional growth capital.

Pursue aggressive organic growth. We serve a market for the construction and expansion of controlled environment agriculture (CEA) facilities and businesses that is projected to grow at a 20%+ compound annual growth rate for the foreseeable future. Our primary vertical market of cannabis cultivation facilities has been joined by the similarly rapidly growing urban vertical farming market to create two market opportunity segmentsbelieve that we are uniquely positioned to serve.

In Mayengineer all of 2021the complex components of a CEA facility into a more integrated and coordinated system, because of our dedicated engineering staff and our experience in over 800 projects including over 200 commercial facilities. We have built a wide network of technology vendors from which we announcedcurate a new strategy forselection of the best products. We are the leading experts in applying the most challenging component of the technical infrastructure, the environmental controls. As a result, we have the knowledge required to engineer the interactions among the required components. The reputation we have built and the relationships we have established as experts in the complex environmental control space positions us to engineer the interactions among the other key components. We believe this effort will grow revenues from our organic growth, which included:existing platform in the future.

 

New markets. We decided to expand our business development plan to pursue non-cannabis CEA facilities, at least doubling our total addressable market.

New products & services. We decided to expand our product offerings from primarily environmental control to now offer all of the primary technologies and services required in a CEA facility: architectural design, lighting, benching, HVACD, sensing & control systems, CO2 dosing and control, water filtration & condensate reclamation, irrigation & fertigation systems, and wastewater treatment.

New trade nameCorporate Name Rebrand. In MayNovember of 2021 we adoptedchanged the trade name of our parent company from Surna Cultivation Technologies. because weInc. to CEA Industries Inc. We believe thatthis name better demonstrates the newbreadth of both our newly expanded product offering and our ability to serve the broader CEA industry in segments beyond traditional cannabis cultivation. We believe this name will more clearly identify our business to prospects and make us easier to find on various social media and search engines.engine platforms. In January 2022, we moved our environmental controls operations to Surna Cultivation Technologies LLC, a newly formed subsidiary of CEA Industries Inc., in order to separate our environmental controls business from other businesses we plan to pursue as we expand our product and service offerings.

 

Our primary objective in expanding our service and product offerings is to improve our customers’ operations and sustainability, increase customer acquisition, and enhance our revenue and revenue recurrence.

Customer Operations – first and foremost we seek to help our customers build the most effective and efficient facility possible. We believe that we are uniquely positioned to engineer all of the complex components of a CEA facility into a holistic whole because of our dedicated engineering staff and our experience in over 800 projects including over 200 commercial facilities. Our 15 years in the business has provided us a wide network of technology vendors from which we curate a selection of the best products. In addition, we are the leading experts in applying the most challenging component of the technical infrastructure, the environmental controls, and we have the knowledge required to engineer the interactions among the required components. A professional engineer (PE) license is not required for the design of any other component in the facility and this engineering knowledge is one of our greatest strengths.

Sustainability – indoor cultivation facilities, like data centers, are resource intensive. Several US states have implemented building code changes that place limits on the energy consumption allowed within cultivation facilities, and we anticipate that more states will do the same. Among our objectives is to provide our customers with the most energy-efficient alternatives for their infrastructure. Energy and resource efficiency is a high priority to us as engineers, and our most senior engineering staff hold the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) credential. Our CEO previously helped build a cleantech company, has been involved in the cleantech industry for over five years, and published a book on selling energy efficient technologies. We believe that we are in a position to lead the industry in sustainability initiatives which our customers will highly value.

Customer Acquisition – By offering Facility Selection & Design services we seek to build relationships with prospects at the earliest opportunity in the lifecycle of the cultivation business. By expanding our offerings to include nearly every piece of the technical infrastructure required in a facility we hope to engage at the earliest possible moment with the customer and earn the opportunity to provide all the products and services required for the facility. Our post-start-up, lifecycle services will help us maintain a relationship with the customer as long as the facility is in operation. Our observation is that our customers want to grow plants, not maintain the technical infrastructure of complex systems, and we believe that they will accept our offer to do so, as some already have.

Revenue and Revenue Recurrence – We believe that our revenue can be expanded by offering most of the primary technical infrastructure components for a cultivation facility. For example, if we are able to provide all of the primary infrastructure components to a cultivation facility, our revenue on a project could be up to 200% higher than if we provided the environmental controls systems alone. In the past we did not have products or services to offer our customers after a facility was constructed. We have recently begun to offer maintenance services, and we believe that by expanding this service offering we will be able to gain long-term recurring revenue on a subscription basis.

26

Seek strategic relationships, mergers, and acquisitions to add to our existing business. We enjoy wide brand recognitionhave been involved in the cannabis cultivation industry because of our longevity in the market segment (15 years) and the number ofover 800 cultivation projects (800+, including over 200 projects for commercial facilities) we have served. Our core expertise is engineering the environmental controls of these facilities, which is a sophisticated engineering challenge due to the high humidity (latent heat) and heat load (sensible heat) within these facilities. Not only are the loads high, but the environmental conditions within these facilities must be held closely within limits that the facility’s managers request. Engineering to meet these limits requires16 years. This experience has exposed us to consideralmost all of the ancillary and primary product and service components within the facility:a CEA facility, including lighting, irrigation, HVACD, fertigation, sensors, controls, CO2 dosing, monitoring, and alarms, facility physical limits such as power availability, and energy consumption. We believe that the expertise gained in working with many of theExposure to these primary components provides us withhas built a uniquely well-informed view of the efficacy of the manyvalue contribution from various primary services and components on offer in the marketplace.

We further believe that this knowledge will help us make wise choices of whichidentify opportunities to acquire products to pursueand services for strategic relationships and which providerspotential acquisitions. As we evaluate the state of the CEA industry and the various industry participants, we see significant opportunity for the industry to potentially merge with or acquire.create value through consolidation. As a growing industry, CEA has a significant need for capital and a recognition that not all companies can be funded for growth. We believe this positions us well as we identify partners whose business platforms are complementary to our business platform.

Finally, members of our team have extensive experience in identifying, evaluating and acquisitions that are accretive and create long-term value for our shareholders. We believe that assets on our platform can benefit our shareholders via synergies and scale economics. For smallercertain component providers, we believe that our publicly tradedpublic stock and strong existing platform and our existing salesof products, expertise, and marketing reach will make us an attractive partner.

Pursue an uplisting topartner for a national exchange and a growth-supporting capital raise. We are seeking an uplist to a national securities exchange and plan to pursue a capital raise to provide us the resources to aggressively pursue the growth of the business and to fulfill our corporate strategy. In 2019 our revenue grew 60% year-over-year, and we had our first-ever cash flow positive year. Despite the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic in the first half of 2020, we believe that our revenue growth in 2019 and then in the Q3 2020 – Q3 2021 period validates our market opportunity and our business model. We also recognize that the costs of being a small public company are substantial and require cash that could otherwise be used to sustain and grow the business. We believe that there is only one solution to this issue: rapid revenue and margin growth. We believe that we have growth opportunities, but we are capital constrained and must seek outside financing to pursue the growth we believe we can achieve.

Our Commercial-Scale Projects

During the first nine months of 2021, we entered into contracts with apotentially accretive, value over $100,000, which we refer to as major commercial-scale projects. These new contracts totaled $11,136,000, which consisted of $9,311,000 for new build projects (84%), $1,459,000 for retrofit projects (13%), and $366,000 for expansion projects (3%).creating partnership.

 

Our Bookings, Backlog and Revenue

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we executed new sales contracts with a total contract value of $5,693,000.$2,347,000. During this same period, we had positive change orders of $395,000$159,000 and cancellations of $488,000.$401,000. The cancellations were based on discussions with customers who have abandoned their projects. After adjustments for these change orders and cancellations, our net bookings in the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 were $5,600,000,$2,105,000, representing an increasea decrease of $4,680,000$1,888,000 (or 509%47%) from net bookings of $919,000$3,993,000 in the secondfourth quarter of 2021.

Our backlog at September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was $9,881,000,$11,179,000, an increase of $1,894,000,$361,000, or 24%3%, from June 30,December 31, 2021. The increase in backlog is the result of our higher net bookingslower revenue in the thirdfirst quarter. Our backlog at September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 includes booked sales orders of $1,250,000 (13%$2,217,000 (20% of the total backlog) from several customers that we do not expect to be realized until late 2022.2023. We believe the sales orders in this portion of our backlog have an elevated level of risk and may, ultimately, be delayed or cancelled by our customers. Therefore, investors should not view backlog as earned revenue.

 

The following table sets forth: (i) our beginning backlog (the remaining contract value of outstanding sales contracts for which we have received an initial deposit as of the previous period), (ii) our net bookings for the period (new sales contracts executed during the period for which we received an initial deposit, net of any adjustments including cancelations and change orders during the period), (iii) our recognized revenue for the period, and (iv) our ending backlog for the period (the sum of the beginning backlog and net bookings, less recognized revenue).

The completion of a customer’s new build facility project is dependent upon the customer’s ability to secure funding and real estate, obtain a license and then build their cultivation facility so they can take possession of the equipment. Accordingly, the time it takes for these customers to complete a new build project, which corresponds to when we are able to recognize revenue, is driven by numerous factors including: (i) the large number of first-time participants interested in the indoor cannabis cultivation business; (ii) the complexities and uncertainties involved in obtaining state and local licensure and permitting; (iii) local and state government delays in approving licenses and permits due to lack of staff or the large number of pending applications, especially in states where there is no cap on the number of cultivators; (iv) the customer’s need to obtain cultivation facility financing; (v) the time needed, and coordination required, for our customers to acquire real estate and properly design and build the facility (to the stage when climate control systems can be installed); (vi) the large price tag and technical complexities of the climate control and air sanitation system; (vii) the availability of power; and (viii) delays that are typical in completing any construction project.

 

As has historically been the case for the Company at each quarter-end, there remains significant uncertainty regarding the timing of revenue recognition of our backlog as of September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, 12% of our backlog was attributable to customer contracts for which we have only received an initial advance payment to cover our engineering services (“engineering only paid contracts”). There are always risks that the equipment portion of our engineering only paid contracts will not be completed or will be delayed, which could occur if the customer is dissatisfied with the quality or timeliness of our engineering services, there is a delay or abandonment of the project due to the customer’s inability to obtain project financing or licensing, or the customer determines not to proceed with the project due to economic factors, such as declining cannabis wholesale prices in the state.

In contrast, after the customer has made an advance payment for a portion of the equipment to be delivered under the contract (“partial equipment paid contracts”), we typically are better able to estimate the timing of revenue recognition since the risks and delays associated with licensing, permitting and project funding are typically mitigated once the initial equipment payment is received. As of September 30, 2021, 88% of our backlog was attributable to partial equipment paid contracts.March 31, 2022.

 

We have provided an estimate in our condensed consolidated financial statements for when we expect to recognize revenue on our remaining performance obligations (i.e., our Q3 2021Q1 2022 backlog), using separate time bands, with respect to engineering only paid contracts and partial equipment paid contracts. There continues to be significant uncertainty regarding the timing of our recognition of revenue on our Q3 2021Q1 2022 backlog. Refer to the Revenue Recognition section of Note 1 in our condensed consolidated financial statements, included as part of this Quarterly Report for additional information on our estimate of future revenue recognition on our remaining performance obligations.

 

Our backlog, remaining performance obligations and net bookings may not be indicative of future operating results, and our customers may attempt to renegotiate or terminate their contracts for a number of reasons, including delays in or inability to obtain project financing or licensing or abandonment of the project entirely. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that contracts included in backlog or remaining performance obligations will generate revenues or when the revenues will be generated. Net bookings and backlog are considered non-GAAP financial measures, and therefore, they should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, our GAAP measures for recognized revenue, deferred revenue and remaining performance obligations. Further, we can provide no assurance as to the profitability of our contracts reflected in remaining performance obligations, backlog and net bookings.

Going Concern

Our condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our independent registered public accounting firm included in its audit opinion on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, a statement that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern,symbol “CEAD” and our consolidated financial statements forwarrants under the year ended December 31, 2020 were prepared assuming that we would continue assymbol “CEADW”. As a going concern. We have determined that our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on continuing to generate sales and raising additional capital to fund our operations and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient additional capital or eventually have positive cash flow from operations to address allresult, effective February 10, 2022, trading of our cash flow needs. If we are not able to generate positive cash flow from operations or find alternative sources of cash, our business and shareholders will be materially and adversely affected. Based on our current assessment of our business, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date our condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, are issued. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other similar stage and situated companies, including general economic conditions; its customers’ operations and prospects for and ability to obtain project financing; market and business disruptions, that include the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and government response; dependence on key individuals; successful development, marketing and branding of products; uncertainty of product development and generation of revenues; dependence on outside sources of financing; risks associated with research, development; dependence on third-party suppliers and collaborators; protection of intellectual property; and competition with larger, better-capitalized companies. Ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations is dependent on future events and obtaining adequate financing to fulfill Company business development plans and activities and generating a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.

The Company also will be affected by constraints on the availability of capital to its customers and customer prospects who have commenced, or are contemplating, new or expanded cultivation facilities. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact the customer and Company business activities and financial results will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. Other factors that will impact the Company’s ability to continue operations include the market demand for the Company’s products and services, the ability to service its customers and prospects, potential contract cancellations, project scope reductions and project delays, the Company’s ability to fulfill its backlog, the management of working capital, and the continuation of normal payment terms and conditions for purchaseboth shares of the Company’s products. The Company believes its cash balancescommon stock and cash flow from operations will be insufficient to fund its operations for the next twelve months. If the Company is unable to increase revenues, or otherwise generate cash flows from operations, there is substantial doubt aboutcertain of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year fromwarrants commenced on the date the financial statements are issued. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Capital Raising

We believe our cash balances and cash flow from operations will be insufficient to fund our operations for the next 12 months. If we are unable to increase revenues or otherwise generate cash flows from operations, we will need to raise additional funding to continue as a going concern. We will need to obtain financing in order to continue our operations and achieve our growth strategies. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the necessary financing, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all. If our operating results do not meet management’s expectations, or additional capital is not available, management believes it can downsize or reorient operations to reduce certain expenditures. The precise amount and timing of our financing needs cannot be determined accurately at this time, and will depend on a number of factors, including the market demand for our products and services, management of working capital, and continuation of normal payment terms and conditions for purchase of our products and services.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise debt or equity financing in sufficient amounts, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all. The Company’s ability to raise equity capital is also limited by the Company’s stock price, and any such issuance could be highly dilutive to existing shareholders.Nasdaq.

 

Inflation

 

InTo date, we have experienced and are likely to continue to face inflationary increases on the opinioncost of management,products, which may adversely affect our margins and financial results, and the pricing of our service and product supply contracts. The inflationary pressures are in both the larger economy and in the industries related to building renovations, retrofitting and new build facilities in which we operate. This inflation has not had a material effect on our operations to date. Due to the pandemic, however, there is the possibilityreflected in higher wages, increased pricing of equipment and other products that we have contracted to provide to our customers, and generally higher prices across all sectors of the economy. As we move forward, we plan to continuously monitor our various contract terms and may decide to add clauses that will face inflationary pressures in certain aspects of our business operations, such as equipment cost, in the future. Management will continuepermit us to monitoradjust pricing if inflation and evaluate the possible future effects of inflationprice increase pressures on us will impact our businessability to perform our contracts and operations.maintain our margins.

The deposit required on the lease was reduced to approximately $32,000 and is payable in 12 monthly installments from January through December of 2021. As of September 30, 2021, approximately $24,000 has been paid toward said deposit. Further, the landlord also agreed to defer payment of fifty percent of the three months of lease payments (base rent only) for the period July to September 2020. The deferred lease payments amount to approximately $30,000 and are payable in 12 monthly installments from January to December 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain accounting policies are particularly important to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of our control. As a result, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses their judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical operations, our future business plans and projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, observance of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers, and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Key estimates include: allocation of transaction prices to performance obligations under contracts with customers, standalone selling prices, timing of expected revenue recognition on remaining performance obligations under contracts with customers, valuation of intangible assets, valuation of equity-based compensation, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, warranty accruals, accounts receivable and inventory allowances, and legal contingencies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, therefore are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that as a result of material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as described in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 filed with the SEC, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.

 

We did not maintain effective controls over certain aspects of the financial reporting process because: (i) we lack a sufficient complement of personnel with a level of accounting expertise and an adequate supervisory review structure that is commensurate with our financial reporting requirements, (ii) there is inadequate segregation of duties due to the limitation on theour limited number of our accounting personnel, and (iii) we have insufficient controls and processes in place to adequately verify the accuracy and completeness of spreadsheets that we use for a variety of purposes including revenue, taxes, stock-based compensation and other areas, and place significant reliance on, for our financial reporting.

 

We intend to take appropriate and reasonable steps to make the necessary improvements to remediate these deficiencies. In Q2 2021, we began this process by hiring a Chief Financial Officer with a background in public reporting and controls. We are committed to continuing to improve our financial organization including, without limitation, expanding our accounting staff and improving our systems and controls to reduce our reliance on the manual nature of our existing systems. However, due to our size and our financial resources, remediating the several identified weaknesses has not been possible and may not be economically feasible now or in the future.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes identified in connection with our internal control over financial reporting during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
