Note 1 - Organization and Operations

alpha-En Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on March 7, 1997.

Since 2008, the focus of the Company’s business has been developing new technologies for manufacturing highly pure lithium metal, a raw material for use in lightweight, high energy density batteries, in an environmentally friendly manner for commercial purposes. In 2013, the Company invented a new process for the production of highly pure lithium metal and associated products at room temperature. The Company subsequently broadened its focus to develop products and processes derived from the Company’s new core proprietary technology, including battery components and compounds of lithium.

Note 2 - Going Concern and Liquidity

The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As reflected in the condensed financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $26.8 million at March 31, 2019, a net loss of approximately $1.2 million and approximately $365,000 net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is attempting to further develop the intellectual property associated with its technology; broaden its patent portfolio; scale up its production of various products; and begin generating revenue; however, the Company’s cash position is not sufficient to support its daily operations for the foreseeable future. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering and its ability to further develop its technology and generate sufficient revenue. While the Company believes in the viability of its technology and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering, there can be no assurances to that effect.

The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 - Significant and Critical Accounting Policies and Practices

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The condensed balance at December 31, 2018 was derived from audited annual financial statements but do not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations for interim reporting. The financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2019.

Use of Estimates

The Company’s condensed financial statements include certain amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The Company’s significant estimates include, but are not limited to, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, fair value used in estimating the value of warrants, stock-based compensation, accrued expenses and provisions for income taxes. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Restricted Cash

The following is a summary of cash and restricted cash total as presented in the statements of cash flows for as of March 31, 2019 and 2018:

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses, if any, are recorded when incurred.

In calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company elects to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company continues to account for leases in the prior period financial statements under ASC Topic 840.

Other than above, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on April 1, 2019.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share excludes the potential impact of common stock options, convertible preferred stock and outstanding common stock purchase warrants because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share at March 31, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our balance sheets or statements of operations.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception, (ASU 2017-11). Part I of this update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of this update addresses the difficulty of navigating Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, because of the existence of extensive pending content in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. The amendments in Part II of this update do not have an accounting effect. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by, among other provisions, recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those periods) using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. In transition, entities may also elect a package of practical expedients that must be applied in its entirety to all leases commencing before the adoption date, unless the lease is modified, and permits entities to not reassess (a) the existence of a lease, (b) lease classification or (c) determination of initial direct costs, as of the adoption date, which effectively allows entities to carryforward accounting conclusions under previous U.S. GAAP. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which provides entities an optional transition method to apply the guidance under Topic 842 as of the adoption date, rather than as of the earliest period presented. The Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, using the optional transition method to apply the new guidance as of January 1, 2019, rather than as of the earliest period presented, and elected the package of practical expedients described above. Based on the analysis, on January 1, 2019, the Company recorded right of use assets of approximately $903,000, lease liability of approximately $1.0 million and eliminated deferred rent of approximately $115,000 (See Note 8).

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2019 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 4 - Property and Equipment

The components of property and equipment as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, at cost are (dollars in thousands):

The Company’s depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $32,000, and $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

Advances from Stockholders

From time to time, stockholders of the Company advances funds to the Company for working capital purposes. Those advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company borrowed $50,000 from Steven M. Payne. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the outstanding amounts of the advances from related parties was approximately $86,000 and $36,000, respectively.

Note 6 - Temporary Equity

The following table summarizes the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

As of March 31, 2019, the dividends accrued and outstanding were $593,000 and reflected in carrying value of temporary equity.

Note 7 - Stockholders’ (Deficit) Equity

Stock Options

The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to value stock options which requires certain assumptions. The fair value of the Company’s common stock was based upon the publicly quoted price on the date that the final approval of the awards was obtained. The Company does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future so therefore the expected dividend yield is 0%. The expected term for stock options granted with service conditions represents the average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on the expected term calculated using the approach prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin for “plain vanilla” options. The expected term for stock options granted with performance and/or market conditions represents the period estimated by management by which the performance conditions will be met. The Company obtained the risk-free interest rate from publicly available data published by the Federal Reserve. The Company uses a methodology in estimating its volatility percentage from a computation that was based on a comparison of average volatility rates of similar companies to a computation based on the standard deviation of the Company’s own underlying stock price’s daily logarithmic returns. The grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $0 and $11,000, respectively. The fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

A summary of option activity for employees and nonemployees under the Company’s stock option plan for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is presented below:

Estimated future stock-based compensation expense relating to unvested stock options is approximately $6.9 million as of March 31, 2019 and will be amortized over 3.5 years.

Warrants

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had 4,797,292 warrants outstanding and 4,547,292 warrants exercisable to purchase its common stock with a weighted average remaining life of 3.0 years and a weighted average exercise price of $1.62. There was no activity of the Company's warrants during the period ended March 31, 2019.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were approximately $699,000 and $11,000 stock-based compensation expenses included in the general and administrative and research and development expense, compared to $363,000 stock-based compensation expenses and $444,000 stock-based compensation income included in the general and administrative and research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

Note 8 – Leases

The Company leases office and laboratory space located in Yonkers, New York for its operations, resulting in an operating lease right-of-use asset, an current portion of operating lease liability, and a noncurrent operating lease liability on the balance sheet.

Operating lease costs are recorded on a straight-line basis within operating expenses. The Company’s total lease expense is comprised of the following (dollars in thousands):

As of March 31, 2019, contractual minimal lease payments are as follows (in thousands):

Note 9 - Subsequent Events

On April 9, 2019 the Company entered into a preferred stock purchase agreement (“Stock Purchase Agreement”) with several accredited and institutional investors (including certain executives and members of the Company’s Board of Directors), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell in a private placement up to 1,500 shares of its newly designated Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series B Preferred”), as well as warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $1,000 per share, for total gross proceeds of up to $1.5 million. The Company has raised $770,000 from the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock through May 14, 2019, including $50,000 advances from related parties and $100,000 deposit from investors converted into Series B Preferred Stock.

On April 8, 2019, in connection with the sale and issuance of the Series B Preferred, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of designation establishing and designating the Series B Preferred and the rights, preferences, privileges and limitations thereof.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Certain statements contained in this report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements give expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “plan,” “should,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “potential” and similar expressions to future periods. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but rather represent current expectations and assumptions. Forward-looking statements include statements we make about matters such as: future revenues; future industry conditions; future changes in our capacity and operations; research and development and capital expenditures and their impact on us; business process, rationalization, investment, operational, tax, financial and capital projects and initiatives; contingencies; changes in the regulatory environment; future capital raising activities and future working capital, costs, revenues, business opportunities, cash flows, margins, earnings and growth.

Forward-looking statements relate to the future and are subject to many risks, assumptions and uncertainties, including those risks set forth in this report and as described in Part I, Item IA Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our prior fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results, developments and business decisions could differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. The environment for which we operate in is highly competitive and rapidly changing and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, as new risks emerge from time to time.

While no list of uncertainties could be complete, some factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation: current and future business and economic uncertainties may adversely affect our ability to generate revenues, profitability and financial condition; changes in the energy storage and battery markets could adversely affect our ability to compete and or to successfully commercialize products acceptable to the market; our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by new government regulations; potential inability to attract and retain skilled personnel, could harm our business; we may pursue strategic opportunities which could result in operating difficulties or dilution; assertions of claims, lawsuits and proceedings against us could harm our business, results of operations and reputation; and our potential inability to raise capital when and if needed.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements by or attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirely by these factors. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Overview

Since 2008, we have been focused exclusively on efforts to develop a business centered around the commercial manufacturing of highly pure lithium metal, a raw material for use in lightweight, high energy density batteries, in an environmentally friendly manner. Additionally, we have broadened our focus to include lithium products and processes derived from our core technology. This includes battery components such as protected anodes and compounds of lithium, among other things.

Lithium is the lightest metal with the highest electrochemical potential, making it a clear choice for batteries. There is a substantial existing market for lithium metal in primary (non-rechargeable) batteries, and rechargeable batteries, including many future opportunities which exist for next-generation batteries under development.

We have no revenues and our business is in the development stage. Our operations primarily include activities related to developing our technology and maintaining our public company status.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

General and administrative expenses were approximately $961,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to approximately $794,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in general and administrative expenses mostly relates to stock-based compensation which were approximately $699,000 and $363,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Legal and professional fees were approximately $101,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to approximately $141,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Research and development expenses were approximately $149,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to research and development income of approximately $274,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in research and development expenses mostly relates to stock-based expenses of $11,000 and stock-based compensation income of $444,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of approximately $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, with such change resulting from our purchase of all of the outstanding shares of our former subsidiary, Clean Lithium Corporation.

Going Concern

The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As reflected in the condensed financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $26.8 million at March 31, 2019, a net loss of approximately $1.2 million and approximately $365,000 net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is attempting to further develop the intellectual property associated with its technology; broaden its patent portfolio; scale up production of various products; and begin generating revenue; however, the Company’s cash position is not sufficient to support its daily operations. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering and its ability to further develop its technology and generate sufficient revenue. While the Company believes in the viability of its technology and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering, there can be no assurances to that effect.

The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Long-term deposits at March 31, 2019 includes $35,000 of cash deposited with Chase Bank (“Chase”) as collateral for an irrevocable standby letter of credit associated our Yonkers office lease.

As of March 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $26.8 million and working capital deficit of approximately $654,000.

We have limited funds to continue our operating activities. Future operating activities are expected to be funded by loans and investments from officers, directors and stockholders, until we begin to generate cash flows from operations.

The table below sets forth selected cash flow data for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

The success of our business plan during the next 12 months and beyond is contingent upon us generating sufficient revenue to cover our costs of operations, or upon us obtaining additional financing. We believe that our current capital resources are not sufficient to support our operations for the next 12 months. We intend to finance our operations through debt and/or equity financings. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. We intend to use all commercially-reasonable efforts at our disposal to raise sufficient capital to run our operations on a go forward basis.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this report, we have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Commitments

On March 22, 2016, we entered into a lease (the “Lease”) with Hudson View Building #3, LLC (“the “Landlord”), for office and laboratory space located in Yonkers, New York (the “Leased Premise”). The Leased Premise consists of approximately 8,000 square feet. The Lease has a term of 87 months from the lease commencement date, which is the date upon which the Landlord has substantially completed certain interior leasehold improvements to the Leased Premise. The annual rent of the first year of the lease is approximately $208,000, increasing by 1.5% on each anniversary of the lease commencement date. In the event of a termination of the lease following a default by the Company, the Company will be obligated to pay the sum of the rent payable for the remainder of the lease term. The Company moved into the office on May 30, 2017. The Company began paying the monthly rent during the quarter ended September 30, 2017. On March 31, 2018, we entered into a lease amendment agreement with the Landlord. Which resulted in abatement of rent for the period from October 2017 through March 2018, and the expiration date of the Lease was extended to March 31, 2025.

In connection with this lease, we obtained an Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit (the “Letter of Credit”) from Chase Bank for a sum not exceeding $150,000. The Company has deposited this amount with Chase Bank as collateral for the Letter of Credit and recorded the amount as restricted cash and long-term deposits in the balance sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, $15,000 restricted cash was released to the Company.

As of March 31, 2019, contractual minimal lease payments are as follows (in thousands):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of March 31, 2019. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer, and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered, due to the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with limited staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both United States generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer, and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During 2018, we, together with our independent registered public accounting firm, identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as described below. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting resulted from operating deficiencies which are listed below. To remediate the material weaknesses, we are initiating controls and procedures to formally monitor new transactions and events that change our business so that we consider material impacts to our financial statements, including proper recording and disclosure of those transactions or events as well as documenting the related significant estimates and judgments made by management.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2019 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
