Going Concern NOTE 13 – GOING CONCERN

The Company’s financial statements as of September 30, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Based on the Company’s current financial position, which includes approximately $1.1 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents that are restricted under the CVR agreement and cannot be used by the Company for its own working capital needs, the Company did not have sufficient cash to make the first earnout payment under the SUNation Transaction Agreement, which was due on May 6, 2024, and the Company’s forecasted future cash flows for the twelve months beyond the date of issuance of the financial statements in this report indicate that the Company does not have sufficient cash to make the first principal payment of the Long-Term Note that was due on November 9, 2024, a factor which raises substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. Notwithstanding the Company’s ability to make such payments, the Company is not permitted to make any earnout payments under the SUNation Transaction Agreement or any payments under the Long-Term Note unless Decathlon has provided prior written consent to such payment pursuant to the Loan Agreement.  Pursuant to that certain subordination letter dated May 31, 2023, each holder of the Long-Term Note has subordinated all payments under the Long-Term Note to the obligations owed to Decathlon under the Loan Agreement and has agreed that, until the Decathlon Obligations have been paid in full, any payment under the Long-Term Note is subject to Decathlon’s prior written consent.  Therefore, if Decathlon does not consent to the first principal payment of the Long-Term Note, such non-payment will not result in a default under the Long-Term Note. Failure to make earnout payments under the SUNation Transaction Agreement, which are prohibited under the Loan Agreement, could result in a breach under the SUNation Transaction Agreement.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need additional capital resources. Management plans to raise capital through sources that may include public or private equity offerings, debt financings and/or strategic alliances. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
