SUMMARY RISK FACTORS

Investing in our shares of Common Stock involves numerous risks, including the risks described in “Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below are some of our principal risks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects:

 
If there is a subsequent wave of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) it will likely impact general market and economic conditionsand is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

 
We operated at a loss in 2021 and 2020, and cannot predict when we will achieve profitability.

 
Our management discovered a material weakness in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as required to be implemented by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 
We may require substantial additional funding which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise the necessary additional capital, we may be unable to achieve growth of our operations.

 
A material reduction in the retail price of traditional utility generated electricity or electricity from other sources could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 
Existing electric utility industry regulations, and changes to regulations, may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers to the purchase and use of solar energy systems that may significantly reduce demand for our solar energy systems.

 
Our growth strategy depends on the widespread adoption of solar power technology.

 
Our business currently depends on the availability of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives. The expiration, elimination or reduction of these rebates, credits and incentives would adversely impact our business.

 
Our business depends in part on the regulatory treatment of third-party owned solar energy systems.

 
Our ability to provide solar energy systems to customers on an economically viable basis depends on our ability to help customers arrange financing for such systems.

 
We may not realize the anticipated benefits of future acquisitions, and integration of these acquisitions may disrupt our business and management.

 
We may require additional financing to sustain our operations, without which we may not be able to continue operations, and the terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact our stockholders.

 
The share price of our Common Stock is subject to fluctuation, has been and may continue to be volatile and may decline regardless of our operating performance, resulting in substantial losses for investors who have purchased shares of our Common Stock.

Business Introduction/Summary

We were originally formed on October 8, 2014 as a blank check company under the name Jensyn Acquisition Corp. for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, with one or more businesses or entities. On June 20, 2019, we completed a business combination (the “Reverse Merger and Recapitalization”) pursuant to which we acquired Peck Electric Co. (“Peck Electric”). The Business Combination was a reverse merger treated as a recapitalization and that Peck Electric was deemed the accounting acquirer and takes over the historical information for the Company. Following the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization, we became known as The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. We conducted all of our business operations exclusively through our wholly owned subsidiary, Peck Electric, until January 19, 2021.

On January 19, 2021, we completed a business combination (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which we acquired iSun Energy LLC (“iSun Energy”). The Business Combination was an acquisition treated as a merger and reorganization and iSun Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. Following the business combination, we changed our name to iSun, Inc. (the “Company”).

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility acquired all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood is a utility-scale solar EPC company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

On September 8, 2021, iSun, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., d/b/a SunCommon, a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub  merged with and into SunCommon (the “Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became  a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. The Merger was effective on October 1, 2021.

We now conduct all of our business operations exclusively through our direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, iSun Residential, Inc., SolarCommunities, Inc. iSun Industrial, LLC, Peck Electric Co., Liberty Electric, Inc., iSun Utility, LLC, iSun Energy, LLC and iSun Corporate, LLC.

We are one of the largest solar energy services and infrastructure deployment companies in the country and are expanding across the United States. Our services include solar, storage and electric vehicle infrastructure, development and professional services, engineering, procurement, and installation. We uniquely target all solar markets including residential, commercial, industrial and utility scale customers.

Prior to becoming a public company, we were a second-generation family business founded under the name Peck Electric Co. in 1972 as a traditional electrical contractor. Our core values were and still are to align people, purpose, and profitability, and since taking leadership in 1994, Jeffrey Peck, our Chief Executive Officer, has applied such core values to expand into the solar industry. Today, we are guided by the mission to facilitate the reduction of carbon emissions through the expansion of clean, renewable energy and we believe that leveraging such core values to deploy resources toward profitable business is the only sustainable strategy to achieve these objectives.

The world recognizes the need to transition to a reliable, renewable energy grid in the next 50 years. States from Vermont to Hawaii are leading the way in the U.S. with renewable energy goals of 75% by 2032 and 100% by 2045, respectively. California committed to 100% carbon-free energy by 2045. The majority of the other states in the U.S. also have renewable energy goals, regardless of current Federal solar policy. We are a member of Renewable Energy Vermont, an organization that advocates for clean, practical and renewable solar energy. We intend to use near-term incentives to take advantage of long-term, sustainable energy transformation with a commitment to the environment and to our shareholders. Our triple bottom line, which is geared towards people, environment, and profit, has always been our guide since we began installing renewable energy and we intend that it remain our guide over the next 50 years as we construct our energy future.

We primarily provide services to solar energy customers for projects ranging in size from several kilowatts for residential loads to multi-megawatt systems for commercial, industrial and utility projects. To date, we have installed over 400 megawatts of solar systems since inception and are focused on profitable growth opportunities. We believe that we are well-positioned for what we believe to be the coming transformation to an all renewable energy economy. As a result of the completion of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization, we have now opened our family company to the public market as part of our strategic growth plan. We are expanding across the United States to serve the fast-growing demand for clean renewable energy. We are open to partnering with others to accelerate our growth process, and we are expanding our portfolio of company-owned solar arrays to establish recurring revenue streams for many years to come. We have established a leading presence in the market after five decades of successfully serving our customers, and we are now ready for new opportunities and the next five decades of success.

We manage our business through our construction operations and offer our EPC services and products consisting of solar, electrical and data installations. Approximately 88% of our revenue is derived from our solar EPC business, approximately 11% of revenue is derived from our electrical and data business and approximately 1% of revenue is currently derived from recurring revenue of Company-owned solar arrays. Recently our growth has been derived by increasing our solar customer base starting in 2013 and by continuing to serve the needs of existing electrical and data customers. We have installed some of the largest commercial and utility-scale solar arrays in the State of Vermont. Our union crews are expert constructors, and union access to an additional workforce makes us ready for rapid expansion to other states while maintaining control of operating costs. The skillset provided by our workforce is transferrable among our service offerings depending on current demand.
 
We also make investments in solar development projects and currently own approximately three megawatts of operating solar arrays operating under long-term power purchase agreements. These long-term recurring revenue streams, combined with our in-house development and construction capabilities, make this asset class a strategic long-term investment opportunity for us.

We have a three-pronged growth strategy that includes (1) organic expansion across the Northeastern United States, (2) conducting accretive merger and acquisition transactions to expand geographically, and (3) investing into Company-owned solar assets.

Consummation of the Business Combinations

On January 19, 2021, we completed a business combination (the “iSun Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which we acquired iSun Energy LLC (“iSun Energy”). The Business Combination was an acquisition treated as a merger and reorganization and that iSun Energy, LLC became a wholly owned subsidiary of The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. Immediately prior to the iSun Merger Agreement, we changed our name to iSun, Inc.

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility acquired all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood is a utility-scale solar EPC company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

On September 8, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “SunCommon Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., d/b/a SunCommon, a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub merged with and into SunCommon (the “SunCommon Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became  a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. The SunCommon Merger was effective on October 1, 2021.

We now conduct all of our business operations exclusively through our wholly owned subsidiaries, iSun Residential, Inc., SolarCommunities, Inc. iSun Industrial, LLC, Peck Electric Co., Liberty Electric, Inc., iSun Utility, LLC, iSun Energy, LLC and iSun Corporate, LLC.

Market Overview

We believe that domestic solar capacity and production will experience explosive growth over the short (through 2035) and long (2050) terms. Both short-term and long-term solar production estimates by research groups vary, however even the most conservative estimates project significant growth in domestic solar deployment through 2035 and again through 2050. Current domestic production is estimated at 100GW, and services only 3% of the rapidly growing US electricity demand. According to an October 2021 US DOE Solar Futures Studyi, absent any concerted policy efforts towards decarbonization, domestic solar capacity is projected to increase by 700% by 2050. Modest decarbonization efforts such as those incorporated in the current administration’s ‘Build Back Better’ plan would require cumulative solar deployment to increase much more significantly from current levels - 100 GW serving ~3% of US electricity demand in 2021  to 760-1000 GW serving 37-42% by 2035, an increase of 1150%, according to Solar Power World. The International Energy Agency (IEA) projects 270 GW of domestic solar capacity by 2026 – nearly 3x the current domestic production levels. As incentives increase and technology costs fall, the EIA also predicts renewables could account for nearly 60 percent of capacity additions through 2050. S&P Global Market Intelligence’s projections are significantly more aggressive, projecting that domestic production will achieve 87% of the IEA’s 2050 projection within the next 5 yearsii.

We agree with the conclusions of the aforementioned reports suggesting that broader decarbonization initiatives involving the decarbonization of the broader U.S. energy system through large-scale electrification of buildings, transportation, and industry will have an impact on both supply (solar deployment) and demand (electricity consumed). The EIA forecasts electricity demand growth owing to electrification of fuel-based building demands (e.g., heating), vehicles, and industrial processes of 30% from 2020 to 2035, and an additional 34% increase in energy demand from 2035 to 2050.

While these efforts will further accelerate growth, iSun also concurs with the conclusions of these reports that domestic solar capacity and production will grow regardless of legislative efforts supporting the aforementioned decarbonization efforts. Each report concludes that decarbonization efforts occurring within specific geographic markets and select industries are already underway and are driving demand for additional domestic solar capacity accordingly:

Targeted High-Value Geographic Markets: These markets offer:

  1.)
A higher internal rate of return (“IRR”) on solar investments,

2.)
statewide legislation promoting decarbonization efforts that will in-turn increase electricity demand,

3.)
high concentrations of consumers who are proactively taking steps towards decarbonization by electrifying their homes, appliances, small businesses, and automobiles,

4.)
utilities with a favorable composition of interconnection requests and transmission and distribution capacity.
 
Targeted Rapidly Growing Industry Sectors: The anticipated widespread adoption of electric vehicles such as the United States  will dramatically change the landscape for domestic energy consumption and production. Mercedes, Ford, and General Motors have all committed to moving to electric or EV hybrid platforms within the decade, ensuring that by 2035, it will be difficult – if not impossible – for consumers to purchase a new car with an internal combustion engine. The average electric vehicle requires 30 kilowatt-hours to travel 100 miles - essentially the same amount of electricity an average American home uses each day. This will have a profound impact on electricity demand across each segment of the marketplace. Overnight, household electricity demand could double for the average American 2-car family. As widespread EV adoption begins to accelerate, consumers will begin looking for ways to reduce their electric bills, increasing demand for household solar solutions. Although consumer behaviors may change with EV adoption…expectations will not. Consumers will still expect that they will be able to recharge their cars quickly and easily at the places they most often frequent. This will in turn prompt commercial enterprises small and large to also look for ways to manage such expectations at reasonable costs. Expectations will be even greater at destination locations such as hotels, municipal facilities, or even remote trailheads or parks, prompting asset owners and municipalities to explore scalable solutions that may not be able to be addressed on-site. And of course, all this activity will in turn be met with an increase in electricity demand, prompting utilities to begin exploring ways of rapidly increasing their capacity.

Strategy

iSun is uniquely positioned in the marketplace to address the generational opportunity presented by automotive electrification and decarbonization. iSun’s Solar Platform serves the evolving energy needs and increased energy demands presented by automotive electrification and decarbonization within of each segment of the solar marketplace. Our:


1.

ii Solar Power World Reference.
Some of the customer needs that will result from automotive electrification and decarbonization are agnostic to scale and will be universal across all segments. A customer-centric organization, iSun has created cross-division service teams to proactively address these needs. iSun’s:


1.
EV Charging Services provides proprietary, solar-powered charging hardware and software solutions that enable grid-tied or off-grid EV charging.

2.
Development and Professional Services provide solar developers with an a la carte menu of services they can use to help accelerate the development process, and more quickly bring their projects on-line, all without having to scale their operation.

3.
Solar Installation, Operations and Management Services incorporates iSun’s expertise as one of the largest solar contractors into a comprehensive suite of services solar asset owners can use to keep their arrays operating at peak performance levels.

Because we provide services to each segment of the marketplace, our Solar Platform enables us to adapt to the evolving range of customer demand and energy innovations resulting from decarbonization and vehicle electrification.

Customer Acquisition: iSun’s growth and new customer acquisition strategies are unique to each division.

Residential: SunCommon values high-touch customer service capabilities that foster long-term customer relationships. Our focus ideally suits the contemporary market environment, where recent technologies like EV charging, energy storage and grid management are arriving early and often. The rapid pace of these deployments mean consumers will be looking to enhance their systems more regularly, increasing long-term customer value. We can cultivate and maintain these relationships at an exceptionally low cost. SunCommon reported new customer acquisition costs of $0.36/w for the 12 months ending December 31, 2021.

Commercial: With the addition of an external sales and marketing efforts through the SunCommon acquisition, we are able to leverage this function and support the expansion of our commercial operations. We have historically worked with existing customers and used those long-standing relationships to attract new and repeat customers. As we grow into new geographic areas, we can continue to add commercial projects to our pipeline through a concentrated sales and marketing effort.

Industrial: We continue to experience organic growth from our established relationships with national developers requesting development and EPC services. Additionally, we have made strategic investments in entities capable of providing a robust pipeline of industrial-scale EPC projects. On November 24, 2021, iSun entered into a Membership Unit Purchase agreement (the “MUPA”) with Encore Redevelopment LLC (“Encore”) in exchange for a fully diluted 9.1% ownership interest in Encore. The investment provides for collaboration opportunities across Encore’s robust project pipeline, which is expected to double over the course of the next 12 months with the capital infusion. Additionally, the transaction provides insights into new prospective geographic markets, which can be used to inform iSun’s geographic growth strategy for its Residential and Commercial divisions.

Utility: With the acquisition of Oakwood Construction Services intellectual property, we were able to expand our utility-scale capabilities to include EPC as well as our development and professional services. Unlike EPC services, development and professional services occur prior to the commencement of construction and are not contingent upon a project proceeding to construction status. Development and professional services not only enhance cash-flows and margins on a month-to-month basis, but also afford us the rights to construction services for each project that proceeds to construction, effectively transforming the lead generation funnel for iSun’s Utility Division into a revenue generator instead of an expense. Immediate success of this strategy is demonstrated by contracts for  development and professional services work on 566MW of solar projects across 4 project sites across the US.

Ancillary Markets

Our capabilities allow for expansion into high-growth adjacent markets. We began operations as a traditional electric contractor and hold a wide range of capabilities to install electric equipment for a variety of end uses. Today, these core capabilities have developed our business in solar array installation, traditional electric, and data services. We can deploy these capabilities to other large, rapidly growing clean/renewable end market within each segment; namely electric vehicle (“EV”) charging stations, data centers, energy storage and other markets. The rapid proliferation of EV charging stations has followed the shift in auto sales to electronic vehicles, and the EV charging market is expected to expand to over $30 billion by 2024 with a CAGR of 40% over the 5-year period. Energy storage measured by megawatts expanded by 44% year-over-year in 2018 and is projected to grow into a $4.7 billion market by 2024. Both markets represent adjacent, high growth expansion opportunities for us, and both require minimal investment of resources, infrastructure or capital spend given its complementary nature to our existing capabilities.

Employees

As of March 31, 2022, we employed approximately 325 full-time employees. We may also utilize outside subcontractors to assist with installing solar systems for our commercial and residential customers. Our direct installation labor is a combination of employees and contract labor.

We have direct access to unionized labor, which provides a unique advantage for growth, because workforce resources can be scaled efficiently utilizing local labor unions in other states to meet specific project needs in other states without increasing fixed labor costs for us.

Financing

To promote sales, we assist customers in obtaining financing options. Our objective is to arrange the most flexible terms that meet the needs and wants of the customer. Although we do not yet directly provide financing, we have relationships to arrange financing with numerous private and public sources, including SunLight, the Vermont State Employees Credit Union, which offers VGreen financing to maximize solar investment savings.

We believe it is best for customers to own their own systems, but some customers prefer not to own their systems. We also have the ability to arrange financing with third parties through power purchase agreements and leases for our customers.

Suppliers

We purchase solar panels, inverters and materials directly from multiple manufacturers and through distributors. We intend to further coordinate purchases across all business segments and to optimize supply relationships to realize the advantages of greater scale.

If one or more of our suppliers fail to meet our supply needs, ceases or reduces production due to its financial condition, acquisition by a competitor or otherwise, it may be difficult to quickly identify alternate suppliers or to qualify alternative products on commercially reasonable terms, and our ability to satisfy this demand may be adversely affected. We do not, however, rely on any single supplier and our management believes that we can obtain needed solar panels and materials from a number of different suppliers. Accordingly, we believe that the loss of any single supplier would not materially affect our business.

We also utilize strategic companies with subcontractors for electrical installations, for racking and solar panel installations, as well as numerous subcontractors for grading, landscaping, and construction for our commercial, and industrial customers.

Installation

We are a licensed contractor in the markets that we serve, and we are responsible for every customer installation. We manage the entire process from permitting through inspection to interconnection to the power grid, thereby making the system installation process simple and seamless for its customers. Controlling every aspect of the installation process allows us to minimize costs, ensure quality and deliver high levels of customer satisfaction.

Even with controlling every aspect of the installation process, the ability to perform on a contract is subject to limitations. There remain jurisdictional approval processes outside our immediate control including, but not limited to, approvals of city, county, state or Federal government bodies or one of their respective agencies. Other aspects outside of our direct control include approvals from various utility companies and weather conditions.

After-Sales Support

It is our intent to provide continuing operation and maintenance services for our installed residential and commercial solar systems. We provide extended factory equipment technical support and act as a service liaison using our proprietary knowledge, technology, and solar electric energy engineering staff. We do this through a 5-year limited workmanship warranty and operations and maintenance program, which among other things, provides a service and technical support line to our customers. We generally respond to our job site related issues within 24 hours and offer assistance as long as required to maintain customer satisfaction. Our price to customers includes this warranty, and also includes the pass through of various manufacturers’ warranties that are typically up to 25 years.

Customers

Historically, the majority of our revenue came from commercial and industrial solar installations ranging in size from 100 kilowatts to 10 megawatts. In 2021, we expanded our capabilities to serve customers across the residential, commercial, industrial and utility markets. We expanded our services based on customer demand to include development and professional services, engineering, procurement, installation, storage, monitoring and electric vehicle infrastructure support.

In 2021, approximately 61% of our revenue were in commercial and industrial solar projects, approximately 28% of revenues were generated by residential installations and, 11% of our revenue were from our electrical and data contracts. Approximately 83% of our revenue in 2020 were generated by commercial and small utility solar projects. Approximately 0.5% of revenues were generated by residential installations in 2020. We expect that these percentages will vary from year to year.

We believe that we have an advantage in the commercial solar market in Vermont given our extensive contact list, resulting from our experience in the commercial and industrial construction market, which also provides access to customers that trust us. Through our network of vendors, participation in variety of industry trade associations and independent sales consultants, we now have a growing list of repeat clients, as well as an active and loyal referral network.

Competitors

In the solar installation market, we compete with companies that offer products similar to our products. Some of these companies have greater financial resources, operational experience, and technical capabilities than we do. When bidding for solar installation projects, however, our current experience suggests that we are the dominant or preferred competitor in the markets in which we compete. We do not believe that any competitor has more than 10% of the market across all the areas in which we currently operate. We compete with other solar installers on our expertise and proven track record of performance. Also, pricing, service and the ability to arrange financing may be important for a project award.

Seasonality

We often find that some customers tend to book projects by the end of a calendar year to realize the benefits of available subsidy programs prior to year-end. This results in third and fourth quarter sales being more robust usually at the expense of the first quarter. In the future, this seasonality may cause fluctuations in financial results. In addition, other seasonality trends may develop and the existing seasonality that we experience may change. Weather can also be an important factor affecting project timelines.

Technology and Intellectual Property

Generally, the solar EPC business is not dependent on intellectual property. We did acquire the intellectual property of Oakwood Construction Services, LLC which provides proprietary capabilities for development and execution of large utility scale solar projects at a significant value to our customers.

Government Regulation and Incentives

Government Regulation

We are not regulated as a public utility in the United States under applicable national, state or other local regulatory regimes where we conducts business.

To operate our systems, we obtain interconnection permission from the applicable local primary electric utility. Depending on the size of the solar energy system and local law requirements, interconnection permission is provided by the local utility and we and/or our customer. In almost all cases, interconnection permissions are issued on the basis of a standard process that has been pre-approved by the local public utility commission or other regulatory body with jurisdiction over net metering procedures. As such, no additional regulatory approvals are required once interconnection permission is given.

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex federal, state and local laws, including regulations governing the occupational health and safety of our employees and wage regulations. For example, we are subject to the requirements of OSHA, the DOT and comparable state laws that protect and regulate employee health and safety.

Government Incentives

Federal, state and local government bodies provide incentives to owners, end users, distributors, system integrators and manufacturers of solar energy systems to promote solar energy in the form of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives such as system performance payments, payments for renewable energy credits associated with renewable energy generation and exclusion of solar energy systems from property tax assessments. These incentives enable iSun to lower the price it charges customers to own or lease, our solar energy systems, helping to catalyze customer acceptance of solar energy as an alternative to utility-provided power.

The federal government currently offers a 26% investment tax credit (“ITC”) under Section 48(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for the installation of certain solar power facilities until December 31, 2022, after which it will fall to 22% in 2023 and 10% in 2024.

The economics of purchasing a solar energy system are also improved by eligibility for accelerated depreciation, also known as the modified accelerated cost recovery system, or MACRS, depreciation, which allows for the depreciation of equipment according to an accelerated schedule set forth by the Internal Revenue Service. The acceleration of depreciation creates a valuable tax benefit that reduces the overall cost of the solar energy system and increases the return on investment.

Approximately 50% of states in the U.S. offer a personal and/or corporate investment or production tax credit for solar energy that is additive to the ITC. Further, these states, and many local jurisdictions, have established property tax incentives for renewable energy systems that include exemptions, exclusions, abatements, and credits. Many state governments, traditional utilities, municipal utilities and co-operative utilities offer a rebate or other cash incentive for the installation and operation of a solar energy system or energy efficiency measures. Capital costs or “up-front” rebates provide funds to solar customers based on the cost, size or expected production of a customer’s solar energy system. Performance-based incentives provide cash payments to a solar energy system owner based on the energy generated by their solar energy system during a pre-determined period, and they are paid over that time period. Depending on the cost of the system and other site-specific variables, tax incentives can typically cover 30-40% of the cost of a commercial or residential solar system.

Many states also have adopted procurement requirements for renewable energy production that requires regulated utilities to procure a specified percentage of total electricity delivered to customers in the State from eligible renewable energy sources, such as solar energy systems, by a specified date.

Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance

Governance and Strategic Overview

In 2022, iSun is building upon its historic foundation of environmentally and socially responsible business by formalizing an enterprise-level ESG strategy.  This strategy will be overseen by an ESG Executive Committee and guided by the Corporate Governance Committee on the Board of Directors.  Our governance efforts have included developing and publishing a core set of policies that speak to our position on and approach to a range of environmental, social, and governance issues.  Through a stakeholder engagement process and iSun employee interviews, we have identified a set of material issues that are critical to both our business and to our key stakeholders. As such, we have developed policies and are implementing initiatives related to climate change and environmental stewardship, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), labor management and human rights, and stakeholder engagement. We are also formalizing and implementing a Business Code of Conduct as well as a Supplier Code of Conduct.

Our strategic plan is designed to mitigate the risks and capitalize on the opportunities associated with these issues, with an explicit focus on aligning our commercial goals and impact aspirations to drive both shareholder and broader stakeholder value.  This strategy will be guided by cross-functional working groups comprised of leaders from across the company and will have explicit goals, key performance indicators (KPIs), and timelines for implementing the initiatives that address each issue.

iSun will be focused on integrating, aligning, and scaling the impact programs developed over the years by SunCommon, our recently purchased subsidiary, which is a certified Public Benefit Corporation and recognized leader in the B-Corp world of socially responsible business.

iSun is currently in compliance with all ESG-related requirements of the SEC and of Nasdaq including the Board Diversity Disclosure Matrix provided below.

Risks and Opportunities

Climate change, and its associated issues like emissions, energy management, waste, and water management – have been identified as critical to our social mission and the concerns of our commercial customers, employees, and investors.  Our mission to accelerate the world’s transition from dirty to clean energy can only be achieved if we are also decarbonizing our own operations and supply chains.  We will be setting long-term goals on climate change and these associated environmental issues after we conduct our first enterprise Greenhouse Gas (GHG) accounting exercise to determine our scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

Human capital, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), have been identified as critical to our long-term success and social impact aspirations.  Human capital has become an increasingly important topic for investors and society at large. It is also integral to the long-term success of our business as we rely heavily on our installation teams and the union members we employ. In turn, we will be ramping up our focus on workforce development and upward mobility opportunities for our employees, advancing work opportunities for diverse and at-risk populations, as well as supporting economic inclusion within our supply chains through a minority-owned business procurement program.

Governance and corporate transparency, both internally and externally, is another core risk and opportunity to address.  Our revamped ESG governance structure and utilization of the ESG project management platform, ESGProgram.io, will ensure alignment and integration of these efforts across the iSun enterprise.  An internal and external ESG communications plan will also ensure our intentions, efforts, and outcomes are well understood by our external stakeholders and greater operational alignment with our internal teams.  Lastly, we will be providing ESG education to our executive leaders and Board to ensure they can actively contribute to the success of our ESG strategy.

Climate Change and Human Capital Management

Climate change and human capital management are two leading ESG issues across industries.  From investor expectations to SEC disclosure regulations, climate risk management and human capital management have emerged as the two most critical issues from a stakeholder and general public perspective.

Our objectives for climate change include measuring and reducing our emissions, waste, and water, enhancing our operational climate risk resilience, and developing service offerings that support the climate risk resilience of our customers.  We will be setting long-term climate change goals, KPI’s, and timelines for achievement, as well as reporting our progress in a 2022 Task Force for Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report.

Our objectives for human capital management include increasing the diversity of our workforce and procurement partners, creating upward mobility opportunities for diverse employees and field staff, as well as increasing the visibility and importance of the Trades in the communities we live and work.  We will be setting long-term human capital goals, KPI’s, and timelines for achievement, as well as reporting our progress in 2022 with the relevant metrics from the Sustainable Accounting Standards Boards (SASB).

Commitments

We will be implementing our enterprise ESG strategic plan across our operations.  As our cross-functional working groups get up and running, we will begin our enterprise GHG emissions assessment and develop the internal infrastructure for consistent ESG data collection.  All material issues will be overseen by their relevant functional leaders and will have explicit and quantified goals, KPI’s, and timelines for achievement.  We will be reporting on our progress throughout the year, culminating in a ESG report and complete with a Sustainable Accounting Standards Boards (SASB) and Task Force for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) reports.  Our progress will be actively communicated externally on our website and in governance documents to ensure full visibility into our ESG intentions, efforts, and results.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors.

An investment in our Common Stock involves significant risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors contained in this Annual Report and in our filings with the SEC before you decide to invest in our Common Stock. Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of such risks. The value of our Common Stock could decline as a result of any of these risks. You could lose all or part of your investment in our Common Stock. Some of our statements in sections entitled “Risk Factors” are forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

The impact of a subsequent wave of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) on general market and economic conditions has yet to be determined and if it occurs it is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has resulted in widespread disruption to capital markets and general economic and business climate. For the year ending December 31, 2021, we experienced significant disruption to our supply chain, instability in material pricing and labor shortages due to the long-term impact of COVID-19. On March 16, 2020, in response to intensifying efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, we temporarily limited access to headquarters and began implementing remote work environments for our employees. On March 25, 2020, we closed our headquarters and advised all employees to work remotely until more guidance is provided. On August 1, 2020, we reopened our headquarters on a limited basis with the proper workplace safety protocols in place while allowing all employees to continue remote work at their discretion. We continue to monitor the outbreak of COVID-19 to help ensure the health and safety of our associates and our customers. We are also continuing to communicate with our suppliers regarding the flow of product and potential temporary effects on our supply chain. On June 14, 2021, Vermont Governor Phil Scott removed all COVID-19 restrictions and Vermont’s State of Emergency expired on June 15, 2021. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the duration of business disruption and the related financial affect cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The extent to which COVID-19 affects our results, or those of our suppliers, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions and related costs to contain or treat it, among others.

Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Capital Requirements

We operated at a loss in 2021 and 2020 and cannot predict when we will achieve profitability.

Our management believes that achieving profitability will depend in large part on our ability to increase market share in our existing market segments and expand our geographic foot print  and to consummate synergistic acquisitions. No assurance can be given that we will achieve profitably or that we will have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.

Our management discovered a material weakness in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as required to be implemented by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

We are currently subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and are required to provide management’s attestation on internal controls. Our management has identified control deficiencies and the need for a stronger internal controls environment relating to the financial statement close process. The ineffectiveness of the design, implementation and operation of the controls surrounding these matters creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, our management concluded that this deficiency represents a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Although our management has taken significant steps to remediate this weakness, our management can give no assurance yet that all the measures it has taken will on a permanent and sustainable basis remediate the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting or that any other material weaknesses or restatements of financial results will not arise in the future. We plan to take additional steps to remedy this material weakness. If we are not able to implement the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 in the future, we will not be able to assess whether our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, which may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences and could harm investor confidence and the market price of our Common Stock.

We may require substantial additional funding which may not be available to it on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise the necessary additional capital, we may be unable to achieve growth of our operations.

The Company was not profitable in 2021 and 2020. In order to grow our operations, we may increase our spending for our operating expenses, capital expenditures and acquisitions.

We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue our organic growth or corporate acquisitions. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition, and strategy.

In order to carry out our business plan and implement our strategy, we anticipate that we will need to obtain additional financing from time to time, and we may choose to raise additional funds through strategic collaborations, public or private equity or debt financing, bank lines of credit, asset sales, government grants, or other arrangements. Our management cannot be sure that any additional funding, if needed, will be available on favorable terms or at all. Furthermore, any additional equity or equity-related financing obtained may be dilutive to our stockholders, and debt or equity financing, if available, may subject us to restrictive covenants and significant interest costs.

An inability to raise capital when needed could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations, and could cause our stock price to decline or require that it cease operations.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

A material reduction in the retail price of traditional utility generated electricity or electricity from other sources could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Our management believes that a significant number of our customers decide to buy solar energy because they want to pay less for electricity than what is offered by the traditional utilities.

The customer’s decision to choose solar energy may also be affected by the cost of other renewable energy sources. Decreases in the retail prices of electricity from the traditional utilities or from other renewable energy sources would harm our ability to offer competitive pricing and could harm our business. The price of electricity from traditional utilities could decrease as a result of:

 
construction of a significant number of new power generation plants, including plants utilizing natural gas, nuclear, coal, renewable energy or other generation technologies;

 
relief of transmission constraints that enable local centers to generate energy less expensively;

 
reductions in the price of natural gas;

 
utility rate adjustment and customer class cost reallocation;

 
energy conservation technologies and public initiatives to reduce electricity consumption;

 
development of new or lower-cost energy storage technologies that have the ability to reduce a customer’s average cost of electricity by shifting load to off-peak times; or

 
development of new energy generation technologies that provide less expensive energy.

A reduction in utility electricity prices would make the purchase or the lease of our solar energy systems less economically attractive. If the retail price of energy available from traditional utilities were to decrease due to any of these reasons, or other reasons, we would be at a competitive disadvantage, may be unable to attract new customers and our growth would be limited.

Existing electric utility industry regulations, and changes to regulations, may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers to the purchase and use of solar energy systems that may significantly reduce demand for our solar energy systems.

Federal, state and local government regulations and policies concerning the electric utility industry, and internal policies and regulations promulgated by electric utilities, heavily influence the market for electricity generation products and services. These regulations and policies often relate to electricity pricing and the interconnection of customer-owned electricity generation. In the United States, governments and utilities continuously modify these regulations and policies. These regulations and policies could deter customers from purchasing renewable energy, including solar energy systems. This could result in a significant reduction in the potential demand for our solar energy systems. For example, utilities commonly charge fees to larger, industrial customers for disconnecting from the electric grid or for having the capacity to use power from the electric grid for back-up purposes. These fees could increase our customers’ cost to use our systems and make them less desirable, thereby harming our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, depending on the region, electricity generated by solar energy systems competes most effectively with expensive peak-hour electricity from the electric grid, rather than the less expensive average price of electricity. Modifications to the utilities’ peak hour pricing policies or rate design, such as to a flat rate, would require us to lower the price of our solar energy systems to compete with the price of electricity from the electric grid.

In addition, any changes to government or internal utility regulations and policies that favor electric utilities could reduce our competitiveness and cause a significant reduction in demand for our products and services. For example, certain jurisdictions have proposed assessing fees on customers purchasing energy from solar energy systems or imposing a new charge that would disproportionately impact solar energy system customers who utilize net metering, either of which would increase the cost of energy to those customers and could reduce demand for our solar energy systems. It is possible charges could be imposed on not just future customers but our existing customers, causing a potentially significant consumer relations problem and harming our reputation and business. Due to the current concentration of our business in Vermont, any such changes in these markets would be particularly harmful to our business, results of operations, and future growth.

Our growth strategy depends on the widespread adoption of solar power technology.

The market for solar power products is emerging and rapidly evolving, and our future success is uncertain. If solar power technology proves unsuitable for widespread commercial deployment or if demand for solar power products fails to develop sufficiently, we would be unable to generate enough revenues to achieve and sustain profitability and positive cash flow. The factors influencing the widespread adoption of solar power technology include but are not limited to:

 
cost-effectiveness of solar power technologies as compared with conventional and non-solar alternative energy technologies;

 
performance and reliability of solar power products as compared with conventional and non-solar alternative energy products;

 
fluctuations in economic and market conditions which impact the viability of conventional and non-solar alternative energy sources, such as increases or decreases in the prices of oil and other fossil fuels;

 
continued deregulation of the electric power industry and broader energy industry; and

 
availability of governmental subsidies and incentives.

Our business currently depends on the availability of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives. The expiration, elimination or reduction of these rebates, credits and incentives would adversely impact our business.

U.S. federal, state and local government bodies provide incentives to end users, distributors, system integrators and manufacturers of solar energy systems to promote solar electricity in the form of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives such as system performance payments and payments for renewable energy credits associated with renewable energy generation. These governmental rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives enhance the return on investment for our customers and incent them to purchase solar systems. These incentives enables us to lower the price that we charge customers for energy and for solar energy systems. However, these incentives may expire on a particular date, end when the allocated funding is exhausted, or be reduced or terminated as solar energy adoption rates increase. These reductions or terminations often occur without warning.

Reductions in, or eliminations or expirations of, governmental incentives could adversely impact our results of operations and our ability to compete in our industry, causing us to increase the prices of our solar energy systems, and reducing the size of our addressable market. In addition, this would adversely impact our ability to attract investment partners and to form new financing funds and our ability to offer attractive financing to prospective customers.

Our business depends in part on the regulatory treatment of third-party owned solar energy systems.

Our leases and any power purchase agreements are third-party ownership arrangements. Sales of electricity by third parties face regulatory challenges in some states and jurisdictions. Other challenges pertain to whether third-party owned systems qualify for the same levels of rebates or other non-tax incentives available for customer-owned solar energy systems, whether third-party owned systems are eligible at all for these incentives, and whether third-party owned systems are eligible for net metering and the associated significant cost savings. Reductions in, or eliminations of, this treatment of these third-party arrangements could reduce demand for our systems, adversely impact our access to capital and could cause us to increase the price that we charge our customers for energy.

Our ability to provide solar energy systems to customers on an economically viable basis depends on our ability to help customers arrange financing for such systems.

Our solar energy systems have been eligible for federal investment tax credits or U.S. Treasury grants, as well as depreciation benefits. We have relied on, and will continue to rely on, financing structures that monetize a substantial portion of those benefits and provide financing for our solar energy systems. With the lapse of the U.S. Treasury grant program, we anticipate that our customers’ reliance on these tax-advantaged financing structures will increase substantially. If, for any reason, our customers were unable to continue to monetize those benefits through these arrangements, we may be unable to provide and maintain solar energy systems for new customers on an economically viable basis.

The availability of this tax-advantaged financing depends upon many factors, including, but not limited to:

 
the state of financial and credit markets;

 
changes in the legal or tax risks associated with these financings; and

 
non-renewal of these incentives or decreases in the associated benefits.

U.S. Treasury grants are no longer available for new solar energy systems. Changes in existing law and interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service and the courts could reduce the willingness of funding sources to provide funds to customers of these solar energy systems. We cannot assure you that this type of financing will be available to our customers. If, for any reason, we are unable to find financing for solar energy systems, we may no longer be able to provide solar energy systems to new customers on an economically viable basis. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Rising interest rates could adversely impact our business.

Increases in interest rates could have an adverse impact on our business by increasing our cost of capital, which would increase our interest expense and make acquisitions more expensive to undertake.

Further, rising interest rates may negatively impact our ability to arrange financing for our customers on favorable terms to facilitate our customers’ purchases of our solar energy systems. The majority of our cash flows to date have been from the sales of solar energy systems. Rising interest rates may have the effect of depressing the sales of solar energy systems because many consumers finance their purchases.

As a result, an increase in interest rates may negatively affect our costs and reduce our revenues, which would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

If we cannot compete successfully against other solar and energy companies, we may not be successful in developing our operations and our business may suffer.

The solar and energy industries are characterized by intense competition and rapid technological advances, both in the United States and internationally. We compete with solar companies with business models that are similar to ours. In addition, we compete with solar companies in the downstream value chain of solar energy. For example, we face competition from purely finance driven organizations that acquire customers and then subcontract out the installation of solar energy systems, from installation businesses that seek financing from external parties, from large construction companies and utilities, and increasingly from sophisticated electrical and roofing companies. Some of these competitors specialize in the residential solar energy market, and some may provide energy at lower costs than we do. Further, some competitors are integrating vertically in order to ensure supply and to control costs. Many of our competitors also have significant brand name recognition and have extensive knowledge of our target markets.

If we are unable to compete in the market, we will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Adverse economic conditions may have material adverse consequences on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Unpredictable and unstable changes in economic conditions, including recession, inflation, increased government intervention, or other changes, may adversely affect our general business strategy. We rely upon our ability to generate additional sources of liquidity and we may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings in order to fund existing operations or to take advantage of opportunities, including acquisitions of complementary businesses or technologies. Any adverse event would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is concentrated in certain markets, putting it at risk of region-specific disruptions.

As of December 31, 2021, a vast majority of our total solar installations were in the Northeast. Our management expects our near-term future growth to occur throughout the Eastern United States, and to further expand our customer base and operational infrastructure. Accordingly, our business and results of operations are particularly susceptible to adverse economic, regulatory, political, weather and other conditions in such markets and in other markets that may become similarly concentrated.

If we are unable to retain and recruit qualified technicians and advisors, or if our key executives, key employees or consultants discontinue their employment or consulting relationship with us, we may delay our development efforts or otherwise harm our business.

We may not be able to attract or retain qualified management or technical personnel in the future due to the intense competition for qualified personnel among solar, energy, and other businesses. Our industry has experienced a high rate of turnover of management personnel in recent years. If we are not able to attract, retain, and motivate necessary personnel to accomplish our business objectives, we may experience constraints that will significantly impede the successful development of any product candidates, our ability to raise additional capital, and our ability to implement our overall business strategy.

We are highly dependent on members of our management and technical staff. Our success also depends on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled junior, mid-level, and senior managers as well as junior, mid-level, and senior technical personnel. The loss of any of our executive officers, key employees, or consultants and our inability to find suitable replacements could potentially harm our business, financial condition, and prospects. We may be unable to attract and retain personnel on acceptable terms given the competition among solar and energy companies. Certain of our current officers, directors, and/or consultants hereafter appointed may from time to time serve as officers, directors, scientific advisors, and/or consultants of other solar and energy companies. We do not maintain “key man” insurance policies on any of our officers or employees. Other than certain members of our senior management team, all of our employees are employed “at will” and, therefore, each employee may leave our employment and join a competitor at any time.

We plan to grant stock options, restricted stock grants, or other forms of equity awards in the future as a method of attracting and retaining employees, motivating performance, and aligning the interests of employees with those of our stockholders. If we are unable to implement and maintain equity compensation arrangements that provide sufficient incentives, we may be unable to retain our existing employees and attract additional qualified candidates. If we are unable to retain our existing employees and attract additional qualified candidates, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The execution of our business plan and development strategy may be seriously harmed if integration of our senior management team is not successful.

As our business continues to grow and in the event that we acquire new businesses, we may experience significant changes in our senior management team. Failure to integrate our Board of Directors and senior management teams may negatively affect the operations of our business.

We may not successfully implement our business model.

Our business model is predicated on our ability to build and sell solar systems at a profit, and through organic growth, geographic expansion and strategic acquisitions. Our management intends to continue to operate our business as it has previously, with sourcing and marketing methods that we have used successfully in the past. However, our management cannot assure you that our methods will continue to attract new customers nor that we can maintain profitability in the very competitive solar systems marketplace.

We may not be able to effectively manage our growth.

Our future growth, if any, may cause a significant strain on our management and our operational, financial, and other resources. Our ability to manage our growth effectively will require us to implement and improve our operational, financial, and management systems and to expand, train, manage, and motivate our employees. These demands may require the hiring of additional management personnel and the development of additional expertise by our management. Any increase in resources used without a corresponding increase in our operational, financial, and management systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may not realize the anticipated benefits of completed and future acquisitions, and integration of these acquisitions may disrupt our business and management.

We have acquired and, in the future, we may acquire companies, project pipelines, products or technologies or enter into joint ventures or other strategic initiatives. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of these acquisition  and any acquisition has numerous risks. These risks include the following:

 
difficulty in assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired company;

 
difficulty in effectively integrating the acquired technologies or products with our current technologies;

 
difficulty in maintaining controls, procedures and policies during the transition and integration;

 
disruption of our ongoing business and distraction of management and employees from other opportunities and challenges due to integration issues;

 
difficulty integrating the acquired company’s accounting, management information, and other administrative systems;

 
inability to retain key technical and managerial personnel of the acquired business;

 
inability to retain key customers, vendors, and other business partners of the acquired business;

 
inability to achieve the financial and strategic goals for the acquired and combined businesses;

 
incurring acquisition-related costs or amortization costs for acquired intangible assets that could impact operating results;

 
potential failure of the due diligence processes to identify significant issues with product quality, legal and financial liabilities, among other things;

 
potential inability to assert that internal controls over financial reporting are effective; and

 
potential inability to obtain, or obtain in a timely manner, approvals from governmental authorities, which could delay or prevent such acquisitions.

Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky and, if we do not complete the integration of acquired businesses successfully and in a timely manner, we may not realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions to the extent anticipated, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

With respect to providing electricity on a price-competitive basis, solar systems face competition from traditional regulated electric utilities, from less-regulated third party energy service providers and from new renewable energy companies.

The solar energy and renewable energy industries are both highly competitive and continually evolving as participants strive to distinguish themselves within their markets and compete with large traditional utilities. We believe that our primary competitors are the traditional utilities that supply electricity to our potential customers. Traditional utilities generally have substantially greater financial, technical, operational and other resources than we do. As a result, these competitors may be able to devote more resources to the research, development, promotion, and sale of their products or respond more quickly to evolving industry standards and changes in market conditions than we can. Traditional utilities could also offer other value-added products or services that could help them to compete with us even if the cost of electricity they offer is higher than that of ours. In addition, a majority of utilities’ sources of electricity is non-solar, which may allow utilities to sell electricity more cheaply than electricity generated by our solar energy systems.

We also compete with companies that are not regulated like traditional utilities, but that have access to the traditional utility electricity transmission and distribution infrastructure pursuant to state and local pro-competitive and consumer choice policies. These energy service companies are able to offer customers electricity supply-only solutions that are competitive with our solar energy system options on both price and usage of renewable energy technology while avoiding the long-term agreements and physical installations that our current fund-financed business model requires. This may limit our ability to attract new customers; particularly those who wish to avoid long-term contracts or have an aesthetic or other objection to putting solar panels on their roofs.

As the solar industry grows and evolves, we will also face new competitors who are not currently in the market. Low technological barriers to entry characterize our industry and well-capitalized companies could choose to enter the market and compete with it. Our failure to adapt to changing market conditions and to compete successfully with existing or new competitors will limit our growth and will have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.

Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in distributed solar energy generation may materially adversely affect demand for our offerings.

Significant developments in alternative technologies, such as advances in other forms of distributed solar power generation, storage solutions such as batteries, the widespread use or adoption of fuel cells for residential or commercial properties or improvements in other forms of centralized power production may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects in ways management does not currently anticipate. Any failure by us to adopt new or enhanced technologies or processes, or to react to changes in existing technologies, could materially delay deployment of our solar energy systems, which could result in product obsolescence, the loss of competitiveness of our systems, decreased revenue and a loss of market share to competitors.

Due to the limited number of suppliers in our industry, the acquisition of any of these suppliers by a competitor or any shortage, delay, price change, imposition of tariffs or duties or other limitation in our ability to obtain components or technologies that we use could result in sales and installation delays, cancellations, and loss of market share.

While we purchase our products from several different suppliers, if one or more of the suppliers on which we rely to meet anticipated demand ceases or reduces production due to its financial condition, is acquired by a competitor or otherwise is unable to increase production as industry demand increases, or is otherwise unable to allocate sufficient production to us, it may be difficult for us to quickly identify alternate suppliers or to qualify alternative products on commercially reasonable terms, and our ability to satisfy this demand may be adversely affected. There are a limited number of suppliers of solar energy system components and technologies. While we believe there are other sources of supply for these products available, transitioning to a new supplier may result in additional costs and delays in acquiring our solar products and deploying our systems. These issues could harm our business or financial performance.

In addition, the acquisition of a component supplier or technology provider by one of our competitors could limit our access to such components or technologies and require significant redesigns of our solar energy systems or installation procedures and have a material adverse effect on our business.

There have also been periods of industry-wide shortages of key components, including solar panels, in times of industry disruption. The manufacturing infrastructure for some of these components has a long lead-time, requires significant capital investment and relies on the continued availability of key commodity materials, potentially resulting in an inability to meet demand for these components. The solar industry is frequently experiencing significant disruption and, as a result, shortages of key components, including solar panels, may be more likely to occur, which in turn may result in price increases for such components. Even if industry-wide shortages do not occur, suppliers may decide to allocate key components with high demand or insufficient production capacity to more profitable customers, customers with long-term supply agreements or customers other than us and our supply of such components may be reduced as a result.

Typically, we purchase the components for our solar energy systems on an as-needed basis and do not operate under long-term supply agreements. The vast majority of our purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars. Since our revenue is also generated in U.S. dollars, we are mostly insulated from currency fluctuations. However, since our suppliers often incur a significant amount of their costs by purchasing raw materials and generating operating expenses in foreign currencies, if the value of the U.S. dollar depreciates significantly or for a prolonged period of time against these other currencies, this may cause our suppliers to raise the prices they charge us, which could harm our financial results. Any supply shortages, delays, price changes or other limitation in our ability to obtain components or technologies that we use could limit our growth, cause cancellations or adversely affect our profitability, and result in loss of market share and damage to our brand.

We act as the licensed general contractor for our customers and are subject to risks associated with construction, cost overruns, delays, regulatory compliance and other contingencies, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We are a licensed contractor and we are normally the general contractor, electrician, construction manager, and installer for our solar energy systems. We may be liable to customers for any damage that we cause to the home, belongings or property of our customers during the installation of our systems. For example, we penetrate our customers’ roofs during the installation process and may incur liability for the failure to adequately weatherproof such penetrations following the completion of installation of solar energy systems. In addition, because the solar energy systems that we deploy are high-voltage energy systems, we may incur liability for the failure to comply with electrical standards and manufacturer recommendations. Because our profit on a particular installation is based in part on assumptions as to the cost of such project, cost overruns, delays, or other execution issues may cause us to not achieve our expected results or cover our costs for that project.

In addition, the installation of solar energy systems is subject to oversight and regulation in accordance with national, state, and local laws and ordinances relating to building, fire and electrical codes, safety, environmental protection, utility interconnection and metering, and related matters. We also rely on certain employees to maintain professional licenses in many of the jurisdictions in which we operate, and our failure to employ properly licensed personnel could adversely affect our licensing status in those jurisdictions. It is difficult and costly to track the requirements of every authority having jurisdiction over our operations and our solar energy systems. Any new government regulations or utility policies pertaining to our systems, or changes to existing government regulations or utility policies pertaining to our systems, may result in significant additional expenses to our customers and, as a result, could cause a significant reduction in demand for our systems.

If we experience a significant disruption in our information technology systems or if we fail to implement new systems and software successfully, our business could be adversely affected.

We depend on information systems throughout our company to process orders, manage inventory, process and bill shipments and collect cash from our customers, respond to customer inquiries, contribute to our overall internal control processes, maintain records of our property, plant and equipment, and record and pay amounts due vendors and other creditors. If we were to experience a prolonged disruption in our information systems that involve interactions with customers and suppliers, it could result in the loss of sales and customers and/or increased costs, which could adversely affect our overall business operation.

Compliance with occupational safety and health requirements and best practices can be costly, and noncompliance with such requirements may result in potentially significant monetary penalties, operational delays, and adverse publicity.

The installation of solar energy systems requires our employees to work at heights with complicated and potentially dangerous electrical systems. The evaluation and modification of buildings as part of the installation process requires our employees to work in locations that may contain potentially dangerous levels of asbestos, lead, mold or other materials known or believed to be hazardous to human health. We also maintain a fleet of trucks and other vehicles to support our installers and operations. There is substantial risk of serious injury or death if proper safety procedures are not followed. Our operations are subject to regulation under the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Act (“OSHA”), the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”), and equivalent state laws. Changes to OSHA or DOT requirements, or stricter interpretation or enforcement of existing laws or regulations, could result in increased costs.

If we fail to comply with applicable OSHA regulations, even if no work-related serious injury or death occurs, we may be subject to civil or criminal enforcement and be required to pay substantial penalties, incur significant capital expenditures or suspend or limit operations. While we have not experienced a high level of injuries to date, high injury rates could expose us to increased liability. In the past, we have had workplace accidents and received citations from OSHA regulators for alleged safety violations, resulting in fines. Any such accidents, citations, violations, injuries or failure to comply with industry best practices may subject us to adverse publicity, damage our reputation and competitive position and adversely affect our business.

Problems with product quality or performance may cause us to incur warranty expenses, damage our market reputation, and prevent us from maintaining or increasing our market share.

If our products fail to perform as expected while under warranty, or if we are unable to support the warranties, sales of our products may be adversely affected, or our costs may increase, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We may also be subject to warranty or product liability claims against us that are not covered by insurance or are in excess of our available insurance limits. In addition, quality issues can have various other ramifications, including delays in the recognition of revenue, loss of revenue, loss of future sales opportunities, increased costs associated with repairing or replacing products, and a negative impact on our goodwill and reputation. The possibility of future product failures could cause us to incur substantial expenses to repair or replace defective products. Furthermore, widespread product failures may damage our market reputation and reduce our market share causing sales to decline.

Seasonality may cause fluctuations in our financial results.

We often find that some customers tend to book projects by the end of a calendar year to realize the benefits of available subsidy programs prior to year-end. This results in third and fourth quarter sales being more robust usually at the expense of the first quarter. In the future, this seasonality may cause fluctuations in financial results. In addition, other seasonality trends may develop and the existing seasonality that we experience may change. Weather can also be an important factor affecting project timelines.

A failure to comply with laws and regulations relating to our interactions with current or prospective commercial or residential customers could result in negative publicity, claims, investigations, and litigation, and adversely affect our financial performance.

Our business includes contracts and transactions with commercial and residential customers. We must comply with numerous federal, state, and local laws and regulations that govern matters relating to our interactions with residential consumers, including those pertaining to privacy and data security, consumer financial and credit transactions, home improvement contracts, warranties, and door-to-door solicitation. These laws and regulations are dynamic and subject to potentially differing interpretations, and various federal, state and local legislative and regulatory bodies may expand current laws or regulations, or enact new laws and regulations, regarding these matters. Changes in these laws or regulations or their interpretation could dramatically affect how we do business, acquire customers, and manage and use information that we collect from and about current and prospective customers and the costs associated therewith. We strive to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to our interactions with residential customers. It is possible, however, that these requirements may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices. Non-compliance with any such law or regulations could also expose us to claims, proceedings, litigation and investigations by private parties and regulatory authorities, as well as substantial fines and negative publicity, each of which may materially and adversely affect our business.

Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business, investments and results of operations.

We are subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional and local governments, including non-U.S. governments. In particular, we are required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, investments and results of operations. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Risks Related to the Regulation of Our Company

Because we were previously considered to be a “shell company” under applicable securities laws and regulations, investors may not be able to rely on the resale exemption provided by Rule 144 of the Securities Act until certain requirements have been satisfied. As a result, investors may not be able to easily re-sell our securities and could lose their entire investment.

Prior to June 20, 2019, we were considered to be a “shell company” under Rule 405 of Regulation C of the Securities Act. A “shell company” is a company with either no or nominal operations or assets, or assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents. In order to rely on the resale exemption provided by Rule 144, certain requirements must be met, including that the Company is current in the filings required by the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended. Because shareholders may not be able to rely on an exemption for the resale of their securities other than Rule 144, they may not be able to easily re-sell our securities in the future and could lose their entire investment as a result. See “Shares Eligible For Future Sale – Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies”.

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although we will cease to be an “emerging growth company” upon the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering (“IPO”), (ii) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues are $1.07 billion or more, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous rolling three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in the Exchange Act. We cannot predict if investors will find shares of our Common Stock less attractive or us less comparable to certain other public companies because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our Common Stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Common Stock and our Common Stock price may be more volatile.

Pursuant to the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for so long as we are an “emerging growth company.”

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and generally requires in the same report a report by our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We are required to provide management’s attestation on internal controls effective December 31, 2021. However, under the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” We will be an “emerging growth company” until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of our IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. An “emerging growth company” can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. However, we have chosen to “opt out” of such extended transition period and, as a result, we must comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

If we are not able to comply with the applicable continued listing requirements or standards of Nasdaq, Nasdaq could delist our Common Stock.

Our Common Stock is currently listed on Nasdaq. In order to maintain such listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance requirements. There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply with the applicable listing standards. Although we are currently in compliance with such listing standards, we may in the future fall out of compliance with such standards. If we are unable to maintain compliance with these Nasdaq requirements, our Common Stock will be delisted from Nasdaq.

Our Common Stock currently trades on Nasdaq, and, to date, trading of our Common Stock has been limited. If a more active market does not develop, it may be difficult for you to sell the Common Stock you own or result in your sale at a price that is less than the price you paid.

To date, trading of our Common Stock on Nasdaq has been limited and there can be no assurance that there will be a more active market for our Common Stock either now or in the future. If a more active and liquid trading market does not develop or if developed cannot be sustained, you may have difficulty selling any of the shares of Common Stock that you purchased. The market price for our Common Stock may decline below the price you paid, and you may not be able to sell your shares of Common Stock at or above the price you paid, or at all.

In the event that our Common Stock is delisted from Nasdaq, U.S. broker-dealers may be discouraged from effecting transactions in shares of our Common Stock because they may be considered penny stocks and thus be subject to the penny stock rules.

The SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stock” that restricts transactions involving stock which is deemed to be penny stock. Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These rules may have the effect of reducing the liquidity of penny stocks. “Penny stocks” generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on NASDAQ if current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). Our shares of Common Stock have in the past constituted, and may again in the future constitute, “penny stock” within the meaning of the rules. The additional sales practice and disclosure requirements imposed upon U.S. broker-dealers may discourage such broker-dealers from effecting transactions in shares of our Common Stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of such shares of common stock and impede their sale in the secondary market.

A U.S. broker-dealer selling penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or “accredited investor” (generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with his or her spouse) must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. In addition, the “penny stock” regulations require the U.S. broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a “penny stock”, a disclosure schedule prepared in accordance with SEC standards relating to the “penny stock” market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. A U.S. broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the U.S. broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, a U.S. broker-dealer is required to submit monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the “penny stock” held in a customer’s account and information with respect to the limited market in “penny stocks”.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to the SEC, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) “boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, resulting in investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.

The Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management without the consent of our Board of Directors. These provisions include:

 
A classified Board of Directors with three-year staggered terms, which may delay the ability of stockholders to the change the membership of a majority of our Board of Directors;

 
no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

 
the exclusive right of our Board of Directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Board of Directors or the resignation, death, or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our Board of Directors;

 
the ability of our Board of Directors to determine whether to issue shares of our preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;

 
the requirement that an Annual Meeting of Stockholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive officer, or the Board of Directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;

 
limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;

 
controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of stockholder meetings;

 
providing that directors may be removed prior to the expiration of their terms by stockholders only for cause; and

 
advance notice procedures that stockholders must comply with in order to nominate candidates to our Board of Directors or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company.

These provisions, alone or together, could delay hostile takeovers and changes in control of the Company or changes in our Board of Directors and management.

As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”), which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding Common Stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding Common Stock. Any provision of our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Common Stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our Common Stock.

Risks Related to Offerings and Ownership of Our Common Stock

The issuance of our Common Stock related to the Exchange and Subscription Agreement may be dilutive.

The Company entered into an Exchange and Subscription Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) dated April 22, 2020 with GreenSeed Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GSI”), and Solar Project Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SPP”). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the shares of Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock. The shares of Preferred Stock were converted into 370,370 shares of Common Stock on February 22, 2021. In addition, on February 9, 2021 warrants issued to GSI to purchase shares of Common Stock were exercised on a cashless basis. An aggregate of 117,376 shares of Common Stock were issued in connection with such exercise. The issuance of our Common Stock pursuant to the Form S-3 Registration Statement) may cause dilution and could cause the price of our Common Stock to fall.

The issuance of our Common Stock pursuant to the Form S-3 Registration Statement may cause dilution and could cause the price of our Common Stock to fall.

A substantial majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and exercisable options are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Company filed an S-3 Registration Statement which was declared effective by the SEC on December 11, 2020. The Registration Statement contains a Base Prospectus, which covers the offering, issuance and sale by iSun of up to $50,000,000 in the aggregate of our shares of Common Stock from time to time in one or more offerings.

Pursuant to a direct offering pursuant to the S-3 Registration Statement the Company sold an aggregate of 840,000 shares of Common Stock and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $10,500,000 to the Company. The Company entered into a Sales Agreement dated September 30, 2021 as amended (the “Sales Agreement”),  with B Riley Capital  (the “Agent”).  Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, iSun may offer and sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $39,500,000 of shares of Common Stock (the “Placement Shares”) through the Agent. Sales of the Placement Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement, may be made in sales deemed to be “at the market offerings” (“ATM”) as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act. The Agent will act as sales agent and will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on iSun’s behalf all of the Placement Shares requested to be sold by iSun, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed terms between the Agent and iSun. As of March 31, 2022, B. Riley has sold an aggregate of 2,735,056 shares of Common Stock in  ATM offerings and the Company has received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $18.3 million.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, future sales of substantial amounts of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline. Increased sales of our Common Stock in the market for any reason could exert significant downward pressure on our stock price.

We may require additional financing to sustain our operations, without which we may not be able to continue operations, and the terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact our stockholders.

As of December 31, 2021, we had a working capital of $1.3 million, net of non-cash liabilities, and had a net loss of $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. We may utilize proceeds from the sale of shares in ATM offerings to fund our business and operations. The extent that we rely on the Shelf Registration as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our Common Stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. After the sale of shares in a registered direct offering for a purchase price of $10.5 million and sales in ATM offerings of an aggregate purchase price of $18.3 million through March 31, 2022, the Company has the potential   to generate approximately $21.2 million in gross proceeds from additional offerings.

We may still need additional capital to finance our future production plans and working capital needs, and we may have to raise funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Depending on the type and the terms of any financing we pursue, stockholders’ rights and the value of their investment in our Common Stock could be reduced. A financing could involve one or more types of securities including Common Stock, preferred stock, convertible debt or warrants to acquire Common Stock. These securities could be issued at or below the then prevailing market price for our Common Stock. In addition, if we issue secured debt securities, the holders of the debt would have a claim to our assets that would be prior to the rights of stockholders until the debt is paid. Interest on these debt securities would increase costs and negatively impact operating results. If the issuance of new securities results in diminished rights to holders of our Common Stock, the market price of our Common Stock could be negatively impacted.

Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Our management has broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from our sale of shares of Common Stock under the Sales Agreement with B Riley Financial, LLC., you may not agree with how we use the proceeds and the proceeds may not be invested successfully.

Our management has broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from our sale of shares of Common Stock under the Sales Agreement with B Riley Financial, LLC and we could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of commencement of the offerings. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of those net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest those net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for us. The failure of our management to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

The share price of our Common Stock is subject to fluctuation, has been and may continue to be volatile and may decline regardless of our operating performance, resulting in substantial losses for investors who have purchased shares of our Common Stock.

We expect that the market price of our Common Stock may continue to be volatile for the foreseeable future. The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the factors listed below and other factors described in this “Risk Factors” section:

 
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

 
the financial projections we may provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure to meet these projections;

 
failure of securities analysts to initiate or maintain coverage of our company, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our company, or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors;

 
ratings changes by any securities analysts who follow our company;

 
announcements by us or our competitors of significant technical innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

 
changes in operating performance and Common stock market valuations of other technology companies generally;

 
price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole;

 
changes in our Board of Directors or management;

 
sales of large blocks of our Common Stock, including sales by our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders;

 
potential lawsuits threatened or filed against us;

 
short sales, hedging and other derivative transactions involving our Common Stock;

 
general economic conditions in the United States and abroad; and

 
other events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism or responses to these events.

In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many software companies. Stock prices of many software companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. In the past, stockholders have instituted securities action litigation following periods of market volatility. If we were to become involved in securities litigation, it could subject us to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows.

We have no history of paying dividends on our Common Stock, and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have not previously paid dividends on our Common Stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain all of our available cash, if any, for use as working capital and for other general corporate purposes. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness, statutory and contractual restrictions applicable to the payment of dividends and other considerations that our Board of Directors deems relevant. Investors must rely on sales of their Common Stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize a return on their investment.

Our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to issue shares of blank check preferred stock, and issuances of such preferred stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such preferred stock, may result in immediate dilution to existing stockholdersg.

If we raise additional funds through future issuances of preferred stock or debt securities convertible into preferred stock, our stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new preferred stock or debt securities that we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of shares of Common Stock. Although we have no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, in the event that we issue additional shares of our preferred stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such preferred stock , the holders of Common Stock will be diluted. We may choose to raise additional capital using such preferred stock or debt securities because of market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.

A market for our securities may not continue, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of our securities.

The price of our securities may fluctuate significantly due to general market and economic conditions. An active trading market for our securities may never develop or, if developed, it may not be sustained. In addition, the price of our securities can vary due to general economic conditions and forecasts, our general business condition and the release of our financial reports. Additionally, if our securities become delisted from Nasdaq for any reason, and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of our securities may be more limited than if we were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established or sustained.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our Common Stock adversely, the price and trading volume of our Common Stock could decline.

The trading market for our Common Stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on us. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of us, our stock price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our Common Stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our Common Stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our Common Stock price or trading volume to decline.

Our executive officers, directors and principal stockholders own a significant percentage of our Common Stock and will be able to exert significant control over matters subject to stockholder approval.

As of March 31, 2022, our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of our equity securities, together with their affiliates, beneficially own approximately40% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, these stockholders have significant influence to determine the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the ability to control the election of our directors, amend or prevent amendment of our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or effect or prevent a change in corporate control, merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination. In addition, any sale of a significant amount of our Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders, or the possibility of such sales, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. Our management’s stock ownership may also discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our Common Stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing any gains from our Common Stock.

Implications of Being an “Emerging Growth Company”

As a public reporting company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

 
are not required to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);

 
are not required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 
are not required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our stockholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 
are exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 
may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) disclosure; and

 
are eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under §107 of the JOBS Act.

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions were already available to us due to the fact that we also qualify as a “smaller reporting company” under the SEC’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation and report regarding internal control over financial reporting, are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis, are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure, and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 million in market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. Under current SEC rules, however, we will continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company” for so long as we have a public float (i.e., the market value of common equity held by non-affiliates) of less than $700 million and annual revenue of less than $100 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

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

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Business Introduction / Overview

iSun, Inc., the principal office of which is located in Williston, Vermont, is one of the largest commercial solar engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) companies in the country and is expanding across the Northeastern United States (“U.S.”). The Company is a second-generation business founded under the name Peck Electric Co. (“Peck Electric”) in 1972 as a traditional electrical contractor. The Company’s core values are to align people, purpose, and profitability, and since taking leadership in 1994, Jeffrey Peck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has applied such core values to expand into the solar industry. Today, the Company is guided by the mission to facilitate the reduction of carbon emissions through the expansion of clean, renewable energy and we believe that leveraging such core values to deploy resources toward profitable business is the only sustainable strategy to achieve these objectives.

The world recognizes the need to transition to a reliable, renewable energy grid in the next 50 years. Vermont and Hawaii are leading the way in the U.S. with renewable energy goals of 75% by 2032 and 100% by 2045, respectively. California committed to 100% carbon-free energy by 2045. The majority of the other states in the U.S. also have renewable energy goals regardless of current Federal solar policy. We are a member of Renewable Energy Vermont, an organization that advocates for clean, practical and renewable solar energy. The Company intends to use near-term incentives to take advantage of long-term, sustainable energy transformation with a commitment to the environment and to its shareholders. Our triple bottom line, which is geared towards people, environment, and profit, has always been our guide since we began installing renewable energy and we intend that it remain our guide over the next 50 years as we construct our energy future.

After installing more than 400 megawatts of solar energy, we believe that we are well-positioned for what we believe to be the coming transformation to an all renewable energy economy. As a result of the completion of our business combination transaction with Jensyn Acquisition Corp. (“Jensyn”) on June 20, 2019, pursuant to which we acquired Peck Electric Co. (the “Reverse Merger and Recapitalization”), we have now opened our company to the public market as part of our strategic growth plan. We are expanding across the Northeastern U.S. to serve the fast-growing demand for clean renewable energy. We are open to partnering with others to accelerate our growth process, and we are expanding our portfolio of company-owned solar arrays to establish recurring revenue streams for many years to come. We have established a leading presence in the market after five decades of successfully serving our customers, and we are now ready for new opportunities and the next five decades of success.

We have a three-pronged growth strategy that includes (1) organic expansion across the Northeastern United States, (2) conducting accretive merger and acquisition transactions to expand geographically, and (3) investing into company-owned solar assets.

On January 19, 2021, we completed a business combination (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which we acquired iSun Energy LLC (“iSun Energy”). The Business Combination was an acquisition treated as a merger and reorganization and iSun Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. Immediately prior to the Merger Agreement, we changed our name to iSun, Inc.

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility acquired all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood is a utility-scale solar EPC company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

On September 8, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub merged with and into SunCommon (the “Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. The Merger was effective on October 1, 2021.

With the filing of our Form S-3 Registration Statement on December 4, 2020, we have the ability to access the capital markets up to $50,000,000 in aggregate to support our statement growth strategy. The access to capital accelerates our growth process and allows us to continue our expansion plans into new territories, aggressively pursue accretive merger and acquisition transactions and continue investing in our company-owned solar assets which now consist of the product offerings of iSun Energy LLC. As of March 31, 2022, there is currently approximately $21.2 million in gross proceeds potentially available for additional sales pursuant to the Registration Statement as we received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $10.5 million from a sale of Common Stock in  a Registered Direct Offering and gross proceeds of approximately $6.8 million through ATM offerings.

In February 2021, SolarCommunities, Inc, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was fortunate to obtain a loan under the CARES Act Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) of $2,000,000. The loan allowed us to maintain our workforce during the shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. On December 6, 2021, SunCommon received notification from Citizens Bank N.A. that the Small Business Administration has approved the forgiveness of the PPP loan in its entirety and as such, the full $2,000,000 has been recognized in the income statement as a gain upon debt extinguishment for the year ended December 31, 2021.

On April 24, 2020, the Company was fortunate to obtain a loan under the CARES Act Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) of $1,487,624. The loan allowed us to maintain our workforce during the shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. On December 1, 2020, the Company received notification from NBT Bank that the Small Business Administration has approved the forgiveness of the PPP loan in its entirety and as such, the full $1,496,468 has been recognized in the income statement as a gain upon debt extinguishment for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Equity and Ownership Structure

On January 19, 2021, we completed a business combination (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which we acquired iSun Energy LLC (“iSun Energy”). The Business Combination was an acquisition treated as a merger and reorganization and that iSun Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. Following the Merger Agreement, we changed our name to iSun, Inc. (formerly The Peck Company Holdings, Inc,).

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun, Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility acquired all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood is a utility-scale solar EPC company and was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

On September 8, 2021, iSun, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub merged with and into SunCommon (the “Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. The Merger was effective on October 1, 2021.

We now conduct all of our business operations exclusively through our wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, iSun Residential, Inc., SolarCommunities, Inc. iSun Industrial, LLC, Peck Electric Co., Liberty Electric, Inc., iSun Utility, LLC, iSun Energy, LLC and iSun Corporate, LLC.

Critical Accounting Policies

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, impairment on investment, revenue recognition utilizing a cost to cost method, allowances for uncollectible accounts, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in 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 may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from contracts with customers under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“Topic 606”). Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when, or as, control of promised goods and services is transferred to customers, and the amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods and services transferred. We primarily recognize revenue over time utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress on contracts for specific projects and for certain master service and other service agreements.

Contracts. We derive revenue primarily from construction projects performed under: (i) master and other service agreements, which are typically priced using either a time and materials or a fixed price per unit basis; and (ii) contracts for specific projects requiring the construction and installation of an entire infrastructure system or specified units within an infrastructure system, which are subject to multiple pricing options, including fixed price, unit price, time and materials, or cost plus a markup.

The total contract transaction price and cost estimation processes used for recognizing revenue over time under the cost-to-cost method is based on the professional knowledge and experience of our project managers, engineers and financial professionals. Management reviews estimates of total contract transaction price and total project costs on an ongoing basis. Changes in job performance, job conditions and management’s assessment of expected variable consideration are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and our profit recognition. Changes in these factors could result in revisions to revenue in the period in which the revisions are determined, which could materially affect our consolidated results of operations for that period. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses are determined. For the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, project profit was affected by less than 5% as a result of changes in contract estimates included in projects that were in process as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Performance Obligations. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer and is the unit of account under Topic 606. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts often require significant services to integrate complex activities and equipment into a single deliverable and are therefore generally accounted for as a single performance obligation, even when delivering multiple distinct services. Contract amendments and change orders, which are generally not distinct from the existing contract, are typically accounted for as a modification of the existing contract and performance obligation. The vast majority of our performance obligations are completed within one year.

When more than one contract is entered into with a customer on or close to the same date, management evaluates whether those contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract as well as whether those contracts should be accounted for as one, or more than one, performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and is based on the facts and circumstances of the various contracts.

Union Labor

The Company uses union labor in order to construct and maintain the solar, electric and data work that comprise the core activities of its business. As such, contributions were made by the Company to the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee, the National Electrical Benefit Funds, Union Pension Plans and a union Health and Welfare Fund. Each employee contributes monthly to the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (“IBEW”). The Company’s contract with the IBEW expires May 31, 2022.

The Company’s management believes that access to unionized labor provides a unique advantage for growth, because workforce resources can be scaled efficiently utilizing labor unions in other states to meet specific project needs in other states without substantially increasing fixed costs for the Company.

Business Insurance / Captive Insurance Group

In 2018, Peck Electric joined a captive insurance group. The Company’s management believes that belonging to a captive insurance group will stabilize business insurance expenses and will lock in lower rates that are not subject to change from year-to-year and instead are based on the Company’s favorable experience modification rate.

Revenue Drivers

The Company’s business includes the design and construction of solar arrays for its customers. Revenue is recognized for each construction project on a percentage of completion basis. From time to time, the Company constructs solar arrays for its own account or purchases a solar array that must still be constructed. In these instances, no revenue is recognized for the construction of the solar array. In instances where the Company owns the solar array, revenue is recognized for the sale of the electricity generated to third parties. As a result, depending on whether it is building for others or for its own account, the Company’s revenue is subject to significant variation.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020

REVENUE AND COST OF EARNED REVENUE

For the year ended December 31, 2021, our revenue increased 115% to $45.3 million compared to $21.1 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Cost of earned revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021, was 108% higher at $38.9 million compared to $18.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our revenue increased as a result of multiple acquisitions throughout 2021 that added new revenue streams, of the 115% revenue, approximately 53% was organic and 62% was a result of acquisitions. In addition to our historical commercial and industrial customer base, we added the capabilities to serve residential, small commercial and utility customers as well as support the demand for electric vehicle infrastructure across all our customer demographics. Our fourth quarter resulted in record revenue of approximately $27.0 million with $12.6 million generated from residential customers and $14.4 million generated from commercial and industrial customers.

Gross profit was $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. This compares to $2.3 million of gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2020. The gross margin was 14.16% in the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 11.13% in the year ended December 31, 2020. Approximately 89% of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2021 was from solar installations compared to 80% of revenues in the year ended December 31, 2020. The solar installation represents higher margin installation in comparison to our traditional electrical and data installations which lead to an increase in gross margin. While we did see an increase in overall gross margin in comparison to prior year, our margins for the first half of 2021 were negatively impacted by the industry wide increase in material and commodity pricing as well as inefficiencies related to the shortages in the labor markets.

For 2022, we anticipate an increase in revenue over 2021 due to several factors. The demand for solar and electric vehicle infrastructure continues to increase across all customer groups. Our residential division has customer orders of approximately $19.2 million expected to be completed within four to six months, our commercial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $9.3 million expected to be completed within six to eight months, our industrial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $73.8 million expected to be completed within twelve to eighteen months and our utility division has 550 MW of projects currently under development with an estimated commencement date in the third quarter of 2022. Historically, we have engaged with existing customers throughout the Northeast. The capabilities of our development and professional services team have allowed us to engage in project development in new geographic regions which will further our expansion opportunities.

SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES

We rely on referrals from customers and on its industry reputation, and therefore have not historically incurred significant selling and marketing expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized sales and marketing expenses of approximately $0.2 million that had been incurred by SunCommon. SunCommon is a wholly-owned subsidiary and our residential division brand and will incur marketing expenses as a means to generate sales demand.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Total general and administrative (G&A) expenses were $13.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, G&A expenses increased to 29.0% in the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 15.9% in the year ended December 31, 2020. In total dollars, G&A increased as we developed our internal platform to support the growth of our new customer revenue channels. With the acquisitions throughout 2021, we increased G&A significantly in order to maintain operational consistency across the newly acquired entities, approximately $1.235 million were related to non-recurring transactional expenses incurred as part of the acquisitions. As we assess efficiencies, we would anticipate the realization of operation synergies which would allow an overall reduction in G&A in future periods.

WAREHOUSE AND OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

Warehousing and other operating expenses increase to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The main contributions to the increase were a move to a new facility in 2021 to support the revenue growth, additional warehousing facilities through the acquisitions and an increase in depreciation expense.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSES)

Interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, was $0.5 million compared to $0.3 million for the same period of the prior year as a result of the B Riley Capital credit facility utilized to support the acquisition of SunCommon. We recognized a gain on the forgiveness of the PPP loan of $2.0 million and $1.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. We recognized a gain from the change in fair value of the warrant liability of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 and a loss of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

INCOME (BENEFIT) TAX EXPENSE

The US GAAP effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2021 was 23.48% and December 31, 2020 was 33.20%. The proforma effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2021 was 21.0% and December 31, 2020 was 21.0%. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the change in the effective tax rate (“ETR”) is driven by the non-taxable income generated from the forgiveness of a loan under the CARES Act Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) of $2.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

NET LOSS

The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $6.2 million compared to a net loss of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Certain Non-GAAP Measures

We periodically review the following key non-GAAP measures to evaluate our business and trends, measure our performance, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Included in this presentation are discussions and reconciliations of earnings before interest, income tax and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and EBITDA adjusted for certain non-cash, non-recurring or non-core expenses (“Adjusted EBITDA”) to net loss in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain non-cash and other expenses, certain legal services costs, professional and consulting fees and expenses, and one-time Reverse Merger and Recapitalization expenses and certain adjustments. We believe that these non-GAAP measures illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to our results of operations and comparability between current and prior periods. We also use these non-GAAP measures to establish and monitor operational goals.

These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute or superior to, the other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Using only the non-GAAP financial measures, particularly Adjusted EBITDA, to analyze our performance would have material limitations because such calculations are based on a subjective determination regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. We compensate for these limitations by presenting both the GAAP and non-GAAP measures of our operating results. Although other companies may report measures entitled “Adjusted EBITDA” or similar in nature, numerous methods may exist for calculating a company’s Adjusted EBITDA or similar measures. As a result, the methods that we use to calculate Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the methods used by other companies to calculate their non-GAAP measures.

The reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are shown in the table below:

Other costs consist of one-time expenses related to the acquisitions of iSun Energy, LLC, Oakwood Construction Services, LLC and SolarCommunities, Inc. In addition, the Company was required to restate its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 due to a change in the accounting for the treatment of warrants. The Company also held two Special Meetings of Stockholders in order to amend its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

As the forgiveness of the PPP loan is considered a one-time expense, the Company considered including the forgiveness of  $2.0 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, as a reconciling item. The Company excluded the forgiveness on the basis that had it not been awarded a PPP loan, the Company would have terminated, furlough or reduced its workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had $2.2 million in unrestricted cash at December 31, 2021, as compared to $0.7 million at December 31, 2020.

As of December 31, 2021, our working capital deficit was $10.3 million, net of non-cash liabilities, compared to a working capital surplus of $0.2 million at December 31, 2020. Included in the working capital deficit was a short-term loan for approximately $6.0 million which was paid in full subsequent to year end and approximately $2.4 million in non-cash liabilities. To date, the Company has relied predominantly on operating cash flow to fund its operations, borrowings from its credit facilities, sales of Common Stock and exercise of public warrants. The availability of financing and the cash flow from operations mitigates the potential for substantial doubt.

We believe that the aggregate of our existing cash and cash equivalents, including our working capital line of credit and sales of Common Stock pursuant to our shelf registration, will be sufficient to meet our operating cash requirements for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are made available. The demand for solar and electric vehicle infrastructure continues to increase across all customer groups. Our residential division has customer orders of approximately $19.2 million expected to be completed within four to six months, our commercial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $9.3 million expected to be completed within six to eight months, our industrial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $73.8 million expected to be completed within twelve to eighteen months and our utility division has 550 MW of projects currently under development with an estimated commencement date in the third quarter of 2022. The customer demand across our segments will provide short-term operational cash flow.

Sales of Common Stock pursuant to the  Form S-3 Registration Statement filed on December 4, 2020,  have provided funds to  support our  growth strategy. The access to capital accelerates our growth process and allows us to continue our expansion plans into new territories, aggressively pursue accretive merger and acquisition transactions and continue investing in our company-owned solar assets which now consist of the product offerings of iSun Energy LLC. As of March 31, 2022, there is currently approximately $21.2 million potentially available for sales pursuant to the Registration Statement as we received aggregate proceeds of  approximately $10.5 million through a Registered Direct Offering and approximately $6.8 million through the sale of Common Stock in ATM offerings.

Cash flow used by operating activities was $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $0.4 million of cash provided by operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of the increase in accounts receivable of $8.1 million and an increase in costs and estimated earning in excess of billings of $2.7 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $36.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $0.1 million used in the year ended December 31, 2020. This increase was related to the acquisition of SunCommon of $25.2 million and minority investments of $8.0 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $43.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $0.2 million of cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2020. The cash flow provided by financing activities was primarily driven by the proceeds from the exercise of public warrants of $20.9 million, a registered direct offering of Common Stock of $9.6 million and proceeds from the sale of Common Stock in ATM offerings of $6.9 million.

Item 7A.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2021, our variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our Credit Facility with NBT Bank. Interest on outstanding revolving loans and our term loan under our Credit Facility accrues at variable rates based on, prime rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus a margin. As of December 31, 2021, we had $4.5 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding revolving loans under our Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 3.25%. A 100 basis point increase in the applicable interest rates under our credit facilities would have increased our interest expense by approximately $45,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021, our fixed interest rate debt primarily included $6.5 million aggregate principal amount of with variable interest rates, which accrued interest at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.0%. None of this debt subjects us to interest rate risk, but we may be subject to changes in interest rates if and when we refinance this debt at maturity or otherwise.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
iSun, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iSun, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).  In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB . Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

iSUN, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

1.
SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)
Organization

iSun, Inc. is a solar engineering, construction and procurement contractor for commercial and industrial customers across the Northeastern United States. The Company also provides electrical contracting services and data and communication services. The work is performed under fixed-price and modified fixed-price contracts and time and materials contracts. The Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware and has its corporate headquarters in Williston, Vermont.

On September 8, 2021, iSun, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub merged with and into SunCommon (the “Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. The Merger was effective on October 1, 2021.

Effective January 19, 2021, the Company changed its corporate name from The Peck Company Holdings, Inc. to iSun, Inc. (the “Name Change”). The Name Change was affected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of iSun, Inc., our wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity. To effectuate the short-form merger, we filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on January 19, 2021. The merger became effective on January 19, 2021 with the State of Delaware and, for purposes of the quotation of our Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), effective at the open of the market on January 20, 2021.

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility acquired all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood is a utility-scale solar EPC company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

b)
Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of iSun, Inc. and its direct and indirect wholly owned operating subsidiaries, iSun Residential, Inc., SolarCommunities, Inc., iSun Industrial, LLC, Peck Electric Co., Liberty Electric, Inc., iSun Utility, LLC and iSun Energy, LLC. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.

c)
Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”). Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

The Company would cease to be an “emerging growth company” upon the earliest to occur of: the last day of the fiscal year in which it has more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue; the date it qualifies as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates; the issuance, in any three-year period, by it of more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt or December 31, 2021.

d)
Revenue Recognition

The majority of the Company’s revenue arrangements generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods or services.

1) Revenue Recognition Policy

Solar Power Systems Sales and Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Services

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of solar power systems, Engineering, Procurement and Construction (“EPC”) services, and other construction type contracts over time, as performance obligations are satisfied, due to the continuous transfer of control to the customer. Construction contracts, such as the sale of a solar power system combined with EPC services, are generally accounted for as a single unit of account (a single performance obligation) and are not segmented between types of services. Our contracts often require significant services to integrate complex activities and equipment into a single deliverable, and are therefore generally accounted for as a single performance obligation, even when delivering multiple distinct services. For such services, the Company recognizes revenue using the cost to cost method, based primarily on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. The cost to cost method (an input method) is the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance because it directly measures the value of the services transferred to the customer. Cost of revenue includes an allocation of indirect costs including depreciation and amortization. Subcontractor materials, labor and equipment, are included in revenue and cost of revenue when management believes that the Company is acting as a principal rather than as an agent (i.e., the Company integrates the materials, labor and equipment into the deliverables promised to the customer). Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the customer. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had $0 in pre-contract costs classified as a current asset under contract assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Project mobilization costs are generally charged to project costs as incurred when they are an integrated part of the performance obligation being transferred to the client. Customer payments on construction contracts are typically due within 30 to 45 days of billing, depending on the contract. Sales and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

For sales of solar power systems in which the Company sells a controlling interest in the project to a customer, revenue is recognized for the consideration received when control of the underlying project is transferred to the customer. Revenue may also be recognized for the sale of a solar power system after it has been completed due to the timing of when a sales contract has been entered into with the customer.

Energy Generation

Revenue from net metering credits is recorded as electricity is generated from the solar arrays and billed to customers (PPA off-taker) at the price rate stated in the applicable power purchase agreement (PPA).

Operation and Maintenance and Other Miscellaneous Services

Revenue for time and materials contracts is recognized as the service is provided.

3) Variable Consideration

The nature of the Company’s contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including claims and unpriced change orders; award and incentive fees; and liquidated damages and penalties. The Company recognizes revenue for variable consideration when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. The Company estimates the amount of revenue to be recognized on variable consideration using the expected value (i.e., the sum of a probability-weighted amount) or the most likely amount method, whichever is expected to better predict the amount. Factors considered in determining whether revenue associated with claims (including change orders in dispute and unapproved change orders in regard to both scope and price) should be recognized include the following: (a) the contract or other evidence provides a legal basis for the claim, (b) additional costs were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and not the result of deficiencies in the Company’s performance, (c) claim-related costs are identifiable and considered reasonable in view of the work performed, and (d) evidence supporting the claim is objective and verifiable. If the requirements for recognizing revenue for claims or unapproved change orders are met, revenue is recorded only when the costs associated with the claims or unapproved change orders have been incurred. Back charges to suppliers or subcontractors are recognized as a reduction of cost when it is determined that recovery of such cost is probable and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Disputed back charges are recognized when the same requirements described above for claims accounting have been satisfied.

4) Remaining Performance Obligation

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 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.

5) Warranties

The Company generally provides limited workmanship warranties up to five years for work performed under its construction contracts. The warranty periods typically extend for a limited duration following substantial completion of the Company’s work on a project. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred, and any estimated costs for warranties are included in the individual contract cost estimates for purposes of accounting for long-term contracts.

e)
Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded when invoices are issued and presented on the balance sheet net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance, which was $84,000 at December 31, 2021 and $84,000 at December 31, 2020, is estimated based on historical losses, the existing economic condition, and the financial stability of the Company’s customers. Accounts are written off against the reserve when they are determined to be uncollectible.

f)
Project Assets

Project assets primarily consist of costs related to solar power projects that are in various stages of development that are capitalized prior to the completion of the sale of the project, and are actively marketed and intended to be sold. In contrast to contract assets, the Company holds a controlling interest in the project itself. These project related costs include costs for land, development, and construction of a PV solar power system. Development costs may include legal, consulting, permitting, transmission upgrade, interconnection, and other similar costs. The Company typically classifies project assets as noncurrent due to the nature of solar power projects (long-lived assets) and the time required to complete all activities to develop, construct, and sell projects, which is typically longer than 12 months. Once the Company enters into a definitive sales agreement, such project assets are classified as current until the sale is completed and the Company has met all of the criteria to recognize the sale as revenue. Any income generated by a project while it remains within project assets is accounted for as a reduction to the basis in the project. If a project is completed and begins commercial operation prior to the closing of a sales arrangement, the completed project will remain in project assets until placed in service. All expenditures related to the development and construction of project assets, whether fully or partially owned, are presented as a component of cash flows from operating activities. Project assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. A project is considered commercially viable or recoverable if it is anticipated to be sold for a profit once it is either fully developed or fully constructed. A partially developed or partially constructed project is considered to be commercially viable or recoverable if the anticipated selling price is higher than the carrying value of the related project assets. The Company examines a number of factors to determine if the project is expected to be recoverable, including whether there are any changes in environmental, permitting, market pricing, regulatory, or other conditions that may impact the project. Such changes could cause the costs of the project to increase or the selling price of the project to decrease. If a project is not considered recoverable, we impair the respective project assets and adjust the carrying value to the estimated fair value, with the resulting impairment recorded within “Selling, general and administrative” expense.

Project Asset were $0 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

g)
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment greater than $1,000 are recorded at cost. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the assets, required installation costs, and any expenditures that substantially add to the value or substantially extend the useful life of the assets.

The solar arrays represent project assets that the Company may temporarily own and operate after being placed into service. The Company reports solar arrays at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The Company begins depreciation on the solar arrays when they are placed in service.
 
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Buildings and improvements
39 years
Vehicles
3-5 years
Tools and equipment
3-7 years
Solar arrays
20 years
Software
3-7 years

Total depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $681,272 and $585,690, respectively.

The cost of assets sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, and the related allowance for depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in operations. The cost of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while significant renewals or betterments are capitalized.

h)
Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances arise, including consideration of technological obsolescence, that may indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. These events and changes in circumstances may include a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset; a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used or in its physical condition; a significant adverse change in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset; an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-lived asset; a current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of such losses or a projection of future losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset; or a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. For purposes of recognition and measurement of an impairment loss, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

When impairment indicators are present, the Company compares undiscounted future cash flows, including the eventual disposition of the asset group at market value, to the asset group’s carrying value to determine if the asset group is recoverable. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures any impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset group to its carrying value. Fair value is generally determined by considering (i) internally developed discounted cash flows for the asset group, (ii) third-party valuations, and/or (iii) information available regarding the current market value for such assets.

If the fair value of an asset group is determined to be less than its carrying value, an impairment in the amount of the difference is recorded in the period that the impairment indicator occurs. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment, and such projections may vary from the cash flows eventually realized.

The Company considers a long-lived asset to be abandoned after the Company has ceased use of such asset and they have no intent to use or repurpose the asset in the future. Abandoned long-lived assets are recorded at their salvage value, if any.

i)
Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company develops, constructs, and operates certain solar arrays with land lease agreements that include a requirement for the removal of the assets at the end of the term of the agreement. The Company recognizes such asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) in the period in which they are incurred based on the present value of estimated third-party recommissioning costs, and they capitalize the associated asset retirement costs as part of the carrying amount of the related assets. Once an asset is placed into service, the asset retirement cost is subsequently depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Changes in AROs resulting from the passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability and as accretion expense. The AROs were not deemed significant to the financial statements and were therefore, not recorded as a liability at December 31, 2021 and 2020.

j)
Concentration and Credit Risks

The Company occasionally has cash balances in a single financial institution during the year in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit of up to $250,000 per financial institution. The differences between book and bank balances are outstanding checks and deposits in transit. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the uninsured balances were approximately $914,000 and $422,000, respectively.

k)
Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The financial statements of the Company account for deferred tax assets and liabilities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income taxes.

The Company also uses a more-likely-than-not measurement for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. If the Company were to incur interest and penalties related to income taxes, these would be included in the provision for income taxes. Generally, the three tax years previously filed remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.

l)
Sales Tax

The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude state sales tax collected and remitted from revenues and costs of sales, respectively.

m)
Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates their estimates, including those related to inputs used to recognize revenue over time, estimates in recording the business combinations, investments, impairment on investments and valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

n)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company is an emerging growth company until at minimum December 31, 2023. The Company will maintain the election available to an emerging growth company to use any extended transition period applicable to non-public companies when complying with a new or revised accounting standard. The Company retains its emerging growth status and therefore elects to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the adoption date required for a private company.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The new guidance requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On May 03, 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. The FASB issued ASU 2021-04 to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The ASU is effective years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those years and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for public companies, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and adoption must be as of the beginning of the Company’s annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-09, Debt (Topic 470). This ASU amends SEC paragraphs pursuant to SEC release No. 33-10762. We are currently assessing the provisions of this guidance to determine whether or not its adoption will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either operating or financing, with such classifications affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2021. We are currently assessing the provisions of this guidance to determine whether or not its adoption will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit losses (Topic 326). This new guidance will change how entities account for credit impairment for trade and other receivables, as well as for certain financial assets and other instruments. The update will replace the current incurred loss model with an expected loss model. Under the incurred loss model, a loss (or allowance) is recognized only when an event has occurred (such as a payment delinquency) that causes the entity to believe that a loss is probable (that is has been “incurred”). Under the expected loss model, a loss (or allowance) is recognized upon initial recognitions of the asset that reflects all future events that leads to a loss being realized, regardless of whether it is probable that the future event will occur. The incurred loss model considers past events and conditions, while the expected loss model includes expectations for the future which have yet to occur. ASU 2018-19 was issued in November 2018 and excludes operating leases from the new guidance. The standard will require entities to record a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. As an Emerging Growth Company, the standard is effective for the Company’s 2021 annual reporting period and interim periods beginning first quarter of 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements and associated disclosures.

o)
Deferred Finance Costs

Deferred financing costs relate to the Company’s debt and equity instruments. Deferred financing costs relating to debt instruments are amortized over the terms of the related instrument using the effective interest method. The Company incurred $400,000 and $0 of deferred financing costs during the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amortization expense associated with deferred financing costs, which is included in interest expense, totaled $103,078 and $3,073 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

p)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, deferred compensation plan liabilities, accounts payable and other current liabilities, and debt obligations.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy, which requires maximizing the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used are: (i) Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (ii) Level 2 - observable market-based inputs or other observable inputs; and (iii) Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data, which are generally determined using valuation models incorporating management estimates of market participant assumptions. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.

Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using public market prices, quotes from financial institutions and other available information. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair values. Management believes the carrying values of notes and other receivables, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, and outstanding balances on its line of credit and long-term debt approximate their fair values as these amounts are estimated using public market prices, quotes from financial institutions and other available information.

q)
Goodwill

The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” where the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The purchase price is allocated using the information currently available, and may be adjusted, up to one year from acquisition date, after obtaining more information regarding, among other things, asset valuations, liabilities assumed and revisions to preliminary estimates. The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, no goodwill impairment was noted.

r)
Debt Extinguishment

Under ASC 470, debt should be derecognized when the debt is extinguished, in accordance with the guidance in ASC 405-20, Liabilities: Extinguishments of Liabilities. Under this guidance, debt is extinguished when the debt is paid, or the debtor is legally released from being the primary obligor by the creditor. On December 1, 2020, the Company received notification from NBT Bank that the Small Business Administration has approved the forgiveness of the PPP loan in its entirety and as such, the full $1,496,468 has been recognized in the income statement as a gain upon debt extinguishment for the year ended December 31, 2020 On December 6, 2021, SunCommon received notification from Citizens Bank N.A. that the Small Business Administration has approved the forgiveness of the PPP loan in its entirety and as such, the full $2,000,000 has been recognized in the income statement as a gain upon debt extinguishment for the year ended December 31, 2021.

s)
Inventory

Inventory is valued at lower of cost or net realizable value determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventory primarily consists of solar panels and other materials. The Company reviews the cost of inventories against their estimated net realizable value and records write-downs if any inventories have costs in excess of their net realizable values. No inventory allowance exists at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

t)
Warrant liability

The Company accounts for warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock as liabilities held at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. The warrants are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants. At that time, the warrant liability will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

u)
Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding the method to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company currently has one reportable segment with different product offerings for financial reporting purposes, which represents the Company’s core business.

v)
Legal Contingencies

The Company accounts for liabilities resulting from legal proceedings when it is possible to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in order to provide an estimate for the contingent liability. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, there are no material contingent liabilities arising from pending litigation.

ACQUISITIONS
 
iSun Energy, LLC

On January 19, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with iSun Energy LLC.  iSun Energy LLC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. iSun Energy, LLC is a provider of products and services designed to support the electric vehicle market. In connection with Merger, Sassoon Peress, the sole member, will receive 400,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock over five years valued at $2,404,000, 200,000 shares of which were issued at the closing, warrants to purchase up 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, valued at $517,898, cash considerations of $85,135 and up to 240,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock based on certain performance milestones for an aggregate value of $3,007,033.



The 400,000 shares of Company’s Common Stock were valued utilizing the market close price of $6.01 on the date, December 30, 2020, which the binding letter of intent was executed. For the warrants, the Company determined the fair market value of these options by using the Black Scholes option valuation model. The key assumptions used in the valuation of the warrants were as follows; a) volatility of 103.32%, b) term of 3 years, c) risk free rate of 0.36% and d) a dividend yield of 0%.



At December 31, 2021, the amount of $2.7 million, net of amortization of $0.3 million, is included as an Intangible Asset. The Company deemed the acquisition an asset acquisition in as much as the acquired assets consisted primarily of the iSun brand and know-how and contained no other business processes. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful life is 10 years. For the year ending December 31, 2021 and 2020, amortization expense is $0.3 million and $0, respectively.


Assignment Agreement

On April 6, 2021, iSun Utility, LLC (“iSun Utility”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Company, Adani Solar USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Adani”), and Oakwood Construction Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oakwood”) entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment”), pursuant to which iSun Utility will acquire all rights to the intellectual property of Oakwood and its affiliates (the “Project IP”). Oakwood was a utility-scale solar EPC company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani. The Project IP includes all of the intellectual property, project references, templates, client lists, agreements, forms and processes of Adani’s U.S. solar business.

Under the Assignment, iSun Utility purchased the Project IP from Adani and Oakwood for total consideration of $2.7 million, with $1.0 million due immediately and the remaining $1.7 million contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones, as described in this paragraph. Under the Assignment provides that iSun Utility acquired all membership interests in Hartsel Solar, LLC (“Hartsel”), and through this transaction iSun Utility acquired all rights to Hartsel’s in-process solar project (the “Hartsel Project”). If Hartsel achieves certain milestones, iSun Utility will pay to Adani $0.7 million to secure equipment previously purchased allowing for safe harbor of the 30% ITC and an additional amount of $1.0 million for key development milestones. The contingent provisions of the Assignment Agreement entered into with Oakwood and Adani are considered Level 3 measurements. Given that the probability of such provisions being achieved is highly unlikely, no value was assigned to the contingent provision.

At December 31, 2021, the amount of $1.0 million is included as an Intangible Asset. The Company deemed the acquisition an asset acquisition in as much as the acquired assets consisted primarily of the know-how and contained no other business processes. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful life is 10 years. For the year ending December 31, 2021 and 2020, amortization expense is $0 as the project for which the asset pertains was not placed into service until 2022.

Business Combination

On September 8, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, iSun Residential Merger Sub, Inc., a Vermont corporation (the “Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“iSun Residential”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, SolarCommunities, Inc., a Vermont benefit corporation (“SunCommon”), and Jeffrey Irish, James Moore, and Duane Peterson as a “Shareholder Representative Group” of the holders of SunCommon’s capital stock (the “SunCommon Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub merged with and into SunCommon (the “Merger”) with SunCommon as the surviving company in the Merger and SunCommon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun Residential. In connection with Merger, the SunCommon Shareholders received merger consideration totaling $48,300,000 consisting of (i) cash in the amount of $25,534,621; (ii) Common Stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) in the amount of $15,965,027, priced at $8.816 per share; and (iii) earn out consideration of up to $10,000,000 upon the fulfillment of certain conditions. The net present value of the earnout provision was determined to be $6.8 million and the Company has included the $3.5 million and $3.3 million as current in accrued expenses and long-term liabilities in other liabilities, respectively. The shares of the Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger were listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Merger closed and was effective on October 1, 2021.

The Company will report begin reporting in segments in the future as we do not currently allocate labor amongst the operating divisions.

The purchase price for SolarCommunities, Inc. consisted of approximately $48,300,000 in cash, equity and earnout provision subject to post-closing adjustments related to working capital, cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses. The Acquisition was accounted for under ASC 805 and the financial results of SunCommon have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of the Acquisition.

Purchase Price Allocation

Under the purchase method of accounting, the transaction was valued for accounting purposes at approximately $48,300,000 which was the fair value of SolarCommunities, Inc. at the time of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of SolarCommunities, Inc. were recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. Any difference between the cost of SolarCommunities, Inc. and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition date preliminary estimated fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we recorded non-recurring total transaction costs related to the Acquisition of $1.235 million. These expenses were accounted for separately from the net assets acquired and are included in general and administrative expense.

We will continue to conduct assessments of the net assets acquired and recognized amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values. We expect that it may take into the second quarter of 2022 until all post-closing assessments and adjustments are finalized.

Business Combination

On November 18, 2021, John Stark Electric, Inc., a New Hampshire corporation (“JSI”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Liberty Electric, Inc., a New Hampshire Corporation (“Liberty”) and John P.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

In 2021, the Company experienced a net operating loss and negative cash flow from operations. At December 31, 2021, the Company had balances of cash of $2.2 million, working capital deficit of $10.3 million, and total stockholders’ equity of $59.9 million. Included in the working capital deficit was a short-term loan for approximately $6.0 million which was paid in full subsequent to year end and approximately $2.0 million in non-cash liabilities. To date, the Company has relied predominantly on operating cash flow to fund its operations, borrowings from its credit facilities, sales of Common Stock and exercise of public warrants. The availability of financing and the cash flow from operations mitigates the potential for substantial doubt.

The Company does not expect to continue to incur losses from operations as the net operating loss was a result of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company’s operations were delayed for approximately six months of the year ended December 31, 2020, which resulted in an overall reduction in revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2021, margin was impacted significantly due to material and commodity price increases and inefficiencies resulting from labor shortages. The Company modified contract terms to allow for an adjustment in contract terms to account for any fluctuations in material pricing.

The demand for solar and electric vehicle infrastructure continues to increase across all customer groups. Our residential division has customer orders of approximately $19.2 million expected to be completed within four to six months, our commercial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $9.3 million expected to be completed within six to eight months, our industrial division has a contracted backlog of approximately $73.8 million expected to be completed within twelve to eighteen months and our utility division has 550 MW of projects currently under development with an estimated commencement date in the third quarter of 2022. The customer demand across our segments will provide short-term operational cash flow.

On January 8, 2021 we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with two institutional investors providing for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate 840,000 shares of our Common Stock in a registered direct offering at a purchase price of $12.50 per Share for gross proceeds of approximately $10.5 million before deducting fees and offering expenses. The Company’s Form S-3 Registration Statement is effective and allows the Company to offer, issue and sell up to $50,000,000 in the aggregate of our shares of Common Stock. After the registered direct offering, the Company had potential gross proceeds of approximately $39.5 million available from sales of Common Stock pursuant to the S-3 Registration Statement. The Company entered into a Sales Agreement with B. Riley Securities providing for the sale of shares of Common Stock in at the market (“ATM”) offerings.  As of December 31, 2021, the Company had sold 887,551 shares of Common Stock under ATM offerings and received aggregate gross proceeds of $7,166,993. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had sold 1,847,505 additional shares of Common Stock in ATM offerings.

On various dates from January 1, 2021 through April 12, 2021, certain holders of the Company’s Public Warrants exercised the right to convert the warrants into shares of Common Stock. As of April 12, 2021, a total of 3,641,018 Public Warrants were submitted for exercise resulting in an issuance of 1,820,509 with net proceeds of $20,906,015 being received by the Company.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $21.2 million in gross proceeds potentially available from sales of Common Stock pursuant to the S-3 Registration Statement which could be utilized to support any short-term deficiencies in operating cash flow.

The Company believes its current cash on hand, proceeds generated from the registered direct offering and additional sales of Common Stock, the availability under the equity line of credits, the collectability of its accounts receivable and project backlog are sufficient to meet its operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued.

UNION ASSESSMENTS

The Company employs members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 300 (IBEW). The union fee assessments payable are both withholdings from employees and employer assessments. Union fees are for monthly dues, defined contribution pension, health and welfare funds as part of multi-employer plans. All union assessments are based on the number of hours worked or a percentage of gross wages as stipulated in the agreement with the Union.

The Company has an agreement with the IBEW in respect to rates of pay, hours, benefits, and other employment conditions that expires May 31, 2022. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred the following union assessments.

Multiemployer Plans

The Company is party to collective bargaining agreements with unions representing certain of their employees, which require the Company to pay specified wages, provide certain benefits to their union employees and contribute certain amounts to Multi-Employer Pension Plans (“MEPP”). The Pension Plan Agreement (“PPA”) defines the funding rules for defined benefit pension plans and establishes funding classifications for U.S.-registered multiemployer pension plans. Under the PPA, plans are classified into one of the following five categories, based on multiple factors, also referred to as a plan’s “zone status”: Green (safe), Yellow (endangered), Orange (seriously endangered), and Red (critical or critical and declining). Factors included in the determination of a plan’s zone status include: funded percentage, cash flow position and whether the plan is projecting a minimum funding deficiency.

A multiemployer plan that is so underfunded as to be in “endangered,” “seriously endangered,” “critical,” or “critical and declining” status (as determined under the PPA) is required to adopt a funding improvement plan (“FIP”) or a rehabilitation plan (“RP”), which, among other actions, could include decreased benefits and increased employer contributions, which could take the form of a surcharge on benefit contributions. These actions are intended to improve their funding status over a period of years. If a pension fund is in critical status, a participating employer must pay an automatic surcharge in addition to contributions otherwise required under the collective bargaining agreement (“CBA”). With some exceptions, the surcharge is equal to 5% of required contributions for the initial critical year and 10% for each succeeding plan year in which the plan remains in critical status. The surcharge ceases on the effective date of a CBA (or other agreement) that includes contribution and benefit terms consistent with the rehabilitation plan. Certain plans in which the Company participates are in “endangered,” “seriously endangered,” “critical,” or “critical and declining” status. The amount of additional funds, if any, that the Company may be obligated to contribute to these plans in the future cannot be estimated due to the uncertainty of the future levels of work that could be required of the union employees covered by these plans, as well as the required future contribution rates and possible surcharges applicable to these plans.

Details of significant multiemployer pension plans as of and for the periods indicated, based upon information available to the Company from plan administrators as well as publicly available information on the U.S. Department of Labor website, are provided in the following table:

The Company uses a more-likely-than-not measurement for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. There were no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. If the Company were to incur interest and penalties related to income taxes, these would be included in the provision for income taxes, there were none for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 respectively. Generally, the three tax years previously filed remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities. The Company does not expect a material change in uncertain tax positions to occur within the next 12 months.

The Company received a loan under the CARES Act Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) of $1,487,624. The Company’s acquisition of SolarCommunities, Inc. & Subsidiaries included the acquisition of outstanding “PPP” loans of $2,591,500 and $2,000,000. Proceeds from the loans were used to cover documented expenses related to payroll, rent and utilities, during the 24-week period, subsequent to the cash being received by the Company, are eligible to be forgiven. The “PPP” loan was forgiven in its entirety in 2020 and the income is deemed to be non-taxable which results in the Company’s effective tax rate differing from the statutory rate.  The SolarCommunities, Inc & Subsidiaries PPP loan of $2,000,000 was forgiven in its entirety in 2021.

The Company has federal net operating losses of approximately $23,000,000 of which $2,200,000 will expire beginning in 2035, $20,800,000 of the net operating losses do not expire. Net operating losses incurred beginning in 2018 are not subject to expiration under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, but the annual usage is limited to 80% of pre net operating loss taxable income for years beginning after December 31, 2020. The Company has tax credit carryforwards of approximately $514,000 which will expire beginning in 2034. We believe that it is more likely than not that the tax benefit of these net operating losses will be fully realized, as such no valuation allowance has been recorded. The deferred tax assets for the net operating losses are presented net with deferred tax liabilities, which primarily consist of book and tax depreciation differences.

13.
CAPTIVE INSURANCE

The Company and other companies are members of an offshore heterogeneous group captive insurance holding company entitled Navigator Casualty, LTD. (NCL). NCL is located in the Cayman Islands and insures claims relating to workers’ compensation, general liability, and auto liability coverage.

Premiums are developed through the use of an actuarially determined loss forecast. Premiums paid totaled $248,450 and $189,958 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The loss funding, derived from the actuarial forecast, is broken-out into two categories by the actuary known as the “A & B” Funds. The “A” Fund pays for the first $100,000 of any loss and the “B” Fund contributes to the remainder of the loss layer up to $300,000 total per occurrence.

Each shareholder has equal ownership and invests a one-time cash capitalization of $36,000. This is broken out into two categories, $35,900 of redeemable preference shares and $100 for a single common share. Each shareholder represents a single and equal vote on NCL’s Board of Directors.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

In 2018, the Company entered into a deferred compensation agreement with a former minority stockholder. The agreement provides for deferred income benefits and is payable over the post-retirement period. The Company accrues the present value of the estimated future benefit payments over the period from the date of the agreement to the retirement date. The minimum commitment for future compensation under the agreement is $155,000, the net present value of which is $58,884. The Company will also pay the former stockholder a solar management fee of 24.5% of the available cash flow from the solar arrays put into service on or before December 31, 2017 over the life of the arrays. The amount is de minimis and therefore not recorded on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and recorded in the statement of operations when incurred.

16.
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock.

The Company has contingent share arrangements and warrants with the potential issuance of additional shares of Common Stock from these arrangements were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because the prevailing market and operating conditions at the present time do not indicate that any additional shares of Common Stock will be issued. These instruments could result in dilution in future periods.

PREFERRED STOCK

The Company has authorized and designated 200,000 shares of convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company subscribed for 500,000 Units of Class B Preferred Membership units of GSI in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”). In addition, the Company subscribed for and purchased 100,000 Units of SPP in exchange for the issuance by the Company of a Warrant to acquire 275,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share.

The Exchange Agreement provides that as long as the dividend payment on the Preferred Shares in each calendar quarter is equal to the aggregate distribution with respect to the GSI Units, such payments and distributions shall be offset and neither GSI nor the Company need to make any cash payments to the other.

The Company granted to GSI the right to repurchase up to 400,000 (in tranches of 50,000) of the Units at a valuation of $4,000,000.

The Company granted to GSI registration rights with respect to the Preferred Shares, the Warrant, and the Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

The Preferred Stock has the following rights and privileges:

Voting – The holders of the Preferred Stock are not entitled to voting rights.

Conversion – Each share of Preferred Stock, is convertible at the option of the holder into 1.85185 shares of Common Stock. The outstanding shares of Preferred Stock automatically convert into Common Stock upon the occurrence of (i) the trading of the shares of Common Stock is equal to or greater than $15.00 per share for any 20 days in a 30 day trading period, or (ii) when there is a change in control and the holder would receive consideration equal to or greater than the preferred liquidation preferences.

Dividends – The holders of the Preferred Stock in preference to the holders of Common Stock, are entitled to receive, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, dividends at the rate of $2.00 per share per annum.

Liquidation – In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or sale or merger of the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, each holder of Preferred Stock is entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of Common Stock, a per-share amount equal to the original issue price of $25.00 (as adjusted, as defined), plus all declared but unpaid dividends.

Redemption – The Company may redeem any or all of the shares at any time by paying in cash $27.50 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends solely at the Company’s option.

Pursuant to the First Amended Certificate of Designation, on February 22, 2021 the Company notified all holders of the Preferred Shares of the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. A total of 370,370 shares of Common Stock were issued pursuant to the conversion.

All shares issuable under the January 2021 RSGA are valued as of the grant date at $6.15 per share representing the fair market value. The January 2021 RSGA provides for the issuance of up to 241,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The restricted shares shall vest as follows: 80,333 of the restricted shares shall vest immediately, 80,333 of the restricted shares shall vest on the one (1) year anniversary of the effective date, and the balance, or 80,334 restricted shares, shall vest on the two (2) year anniversary of the effective date.

GreenSeed Investors, LLC and Solar Project Partners, LLC

The Company entered into an Exchange and Subscription Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) dated April 22, 2020 with GreenSeed Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GSI”), and Solar Project Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SPP”).

The primary purpose of GSI is to facilitate the green bond platform and provide capital for the acquisition of solar projects by SPP. The investment in GSI provides access to early stage financing to support the Company’s EPC operations while establishing a large pipeline of projects. The investment in SPP provides the Company with the opportunity to retain a long-term ownership in the completed solar projects. As such, the Company recorded the investments as long-term other assets.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company subscribed for 500,000 Units of Class B Preferred Membership units of GSI in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”). In addition to the investment by GSI in the Preferred Shares, GSI obtained additional capital contributions which valued the Units at $10.00 per Unit. As the Company acquired 500,000 Units, the market transactions were utilized as a Level 1 fair value instruments in determining the valuation of the investment. As of April 22, 2020, the fair value of the investment in GSI was $5,000,000. Separately, the Company subscribed for and purchased 100,000 Units of SPP in exchange for the issuance by the Company of a Warrant to acquire 275,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share. As of December 31, 2021, the warrant was converted to 117,376 shares of Common Stock on a cashless basis.

The Exchange Agreement provides that as long as the dividend payment on the Preferred Shares in each calendar quarter is equal to the aggregate distribution with respect to the GSI Units, such payments and distributions shall be offset and neither GSI nor the Company need to make any cash payments to the other. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received a return of capital from GSI in the amount of $400,000. The dividend receivable of $100,000 is included in other current assets as of December 31, 2021.

The Company granted to GSI the right to repurchase up to 400,000 (in tranches of 50,000) of the Units at a valuation of $10.00 per Unit totaling $4,000,000.

The Company granted to GSI registration rights with respect to the Preferred Shares, the Warrant, and the Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

The GSI and SPP investments are measured at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in ordinary transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. As the Company does not have significant influence over operating or financial policies of GSI and SPP, the cost method of accounting for the investment was determined to be appropriate. Changes in the fair value of the investment are recorded as net appreciation in fair value of investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. No net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of the investments was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021, as there were no observable price changes.

Gemini and AmpUp

On March 18, 2021, the Company made a minority investment of $1,500,000 in Gemini Electric Mobility Co. (“Gemini”) utilizing a Simple Agreement for Future Equity. On May 6, 2021, the Company made an additional minority investment of $500,000 in Gemini.

On March 18, 2021, the Company made a minority investment of $1,000,000 in Nad Grid Corp (“AmpUp”) utilizing a Simple Agreement for Future Equity.

The Gemini and AmpUp investments are measured at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in ordinary transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. These investments are minority investments intended to support electric vehicle infrastructure development. The Company has no control in these entities. Changes in the fair value of the investment are recorded as net appreciation in fair value of investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December 31, 2021, the equity investment for Gemini and AmpUp was $2,000,000 and $1,000,000, respectively. No net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of the investments was recorded during the nine months ending December 31, 2021, as there were no observable price changes.

Encore Renewables

On November 24, 2021, the Company entered into a Membership Unit Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company invested $5,000,000 in Encore Redevelopment, LLC (“Encore”) representing a fully-diluted 9.1% ownership interest.

The Encore investment is measured at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in ordinary transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. As the Company does not have significant influence over operating or financial policies of Encore, the cost method of accounting for the investment was determined to be appropriate. Changes in the fair value of the investment are recorded as net appreciation in fair value of investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. No net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of the investments was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021, as there were no observable price changes.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Item 9A.
Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, did not carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Management has determined there is a lack of supervisory review of the financial statement closing process due to limited resources and formal documentation of procedures and controls. These control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. As a result, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We plan to take steps to remedy this material weakness in with the implementation of an “Internal Control-Integrated Framework”

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information that is required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act report is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).

Management previously identified control deficiencies regarding the need for a stronger internal control environment relating to the financial statement closing process, formal documentation and designed disclosure controls and procedures and testing of the operating effectiveness of the controls. In 2021, Management took additional steps to remediate these control deficiencies including implementing revised work in process review procedures, enhanced financial reporting reviews processes, and the retention of additional qualified personnel. Management identified control deficiencies related to segregation of duties and access with the IT environment. Management continues to enhance the internal control environment but has not completed the implementation and testing of the new and revised internal controls. Management believes that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Based upon the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the COSO, management believes that the controls currently in place are not adequate. As such, a material weakness existed as of December 31, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the control improvements discussed in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 has not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm by virtue of our exemption from such requirement as a non-accelerated smaller reporting company.
