KULR TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1    ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization and Operations

KULR Technology Group, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, KULR Technology Corporation (collectively referred to as “KULR” or the “Company”), develops and commercializes high-performance thermal management technologies for electronics, batteries, and other components across a range of applications. Currently, the Company is focused on targeting both high performance aerospace and United States Department of Defense (“DOD”) applications, such as space exploration, satellite communications, and underwater vehicles, and applying them to mass market commercial applications, such as lithium-ion battery energy storage, electric vehicles, 5G communication, cloud computer infrastructure, consumer and industrial devices.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2023 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2023 or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related disclosures as of December 31, 2022 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K on March 28, 2023. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Form 10-K.

NOTE 2    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Since the date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except as disclosed in this note.

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $1,320,651 and a working capital deficit of $4,719,810. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $12,937,853 and used cash in operations of $9,858,687.

The Company’s primary source of liquidity has historically been cash generated from equity and debt offerings. Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (“ASC 205-40”), the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, since the Company’s inception we have had a history of recurring net losses from operations, recurring use of cash in operating activities and declining working capital.

Future cash requirements for our current liabilities include $3,939,449 for accounts payable and accrued expenses and $242,078 for future payments under operating leases. Further, pursuant to an agreement with Yorkville executed on August 16, 2023, $3,150,000 owed in connection with the Company’s prepaid advance liability must be paid by August 25, 2023, and three additional payments, each in the amount of $1,383,333, are to be paid on the last day of each of October 2023, November 2023, and December 2023. The Company has also committed to spend $807,515 related to capital expenditures for automation equipment, $500,000 in connection with an asset purchase agreement, and $441,192 for research and development. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due within the twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

Management’s plans to mitigate the factors which raise substantial doubt include (i) revenue growth, (ii) reducing operating expenses through careful cost management, (iii) raising additional funds through future financings, and (iv) negotiating an extension and/or conversion to equity of the Company’s prepaid advance liability (see Note 14 – Subsequent Events).

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully execute the aforementioned initiatives.

As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, the Company has no additional commitments to obtain additional funding through future financings and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully negotiate an extension of the prepaid advance liability repayments or its conversion to equity, or that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. There is also no assurance that the amount of funds the Company might raise will enable the Company to complete its development initiatives or attain profitable operations. The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, together with amounts disclosed in the related notes to the financial statements. The Company’s significant estimates used in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, fair value calculations for equity securities, stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Balances that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consisted primarily of cash, accounts receivable, revenue and accounts payable.

Cash Concentrations

A significant portion of the Company’s cash is held at one major financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Cash held in US bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. There were uninsured balances of $820,651 and $12,491,732 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

There is no assurance the Company will continue to receive significant revenues from any of these customers. Any reduction or delay in operating activity from any of the Company’s significant customers, or a delay or default in payment by any significant customer, or termination of agreements with significant customers, could materially harm the Company’s business and prospects. As a result of the Company’s significant customer concentrations, its gross profit and results of operations could fluctuate significantly due to changes in political, environmental, or economic conditions, or the loss of, reduction of business from, or less favorable terms with any of the Company’s significant customers.

Inventory

The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with products when future commercialization is considered probable, and a future economic benefit is expected to be realized. These costs consist of finished goods, raw materials, manufacturing-related costs, transportation and freight, and other indirect overhead costs.

Inventory is comprised of carbon fiber velvet (“CFV”) thermal interface solutions and internal short circuit batteries, which are available for sale, as well as raw materials and work in process related primarily to the manufacture of safe cases. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The cost of inventory that is sold to third parties is included within cost of sales and the cost of inventory that is given as samples is included within operating expenses. The

Company periodically reviews for slow-moving, excess or obsolete inventories. Products that are determined to be obsolete, if any, are written down to net realizable value. Finished goods inventory is held on-site at the Company’s San Diego, California location. Certain raw materials are held off-site with our contract manufacturers.

Inventory at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was comprised of the following:

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer;
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the following different types of contracts:

Product sales – Revenue is primarily recognized at the point in time the customer obtains control of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which is generally at the time it ships the product to the customer. However, for internally developed, customized products with no alternative use where the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligations.
Contract services – Revenue is recognized at the point in time that the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contract, which is generally at the time the services are fulfilled and/or accepted by the customer.

The contract liabilities represent payments received from customers for which the Company had not yet satisfied its performance obligation under the contract, or the customers have not officially accepted the goods or services provided under the contract. The Company expects to satisfy the remaining performance obligations and recognize the revenue related to its deferred revenue balance within the next twelve months. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $41,261 and $34,402 of deferred labor and other costs, respectively, which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Deferred labor and other costs represent costs to fulfill the Company’s contract revenue. The Company will recognize the deferred labor and other costs as cost of revenues at the point in time that the Company recognizes the related revenue, which is generally at the time the services are provided and/or the product/service is accepted by the customer.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common-equivalent shares outstanding during each period.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates to the new standard including changing the effective date for smaller reporting companies. The guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective approach and it did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3    ASSET ACQUISITION

On May 4, 2023 (the “Asset Purchase Date”), KULR Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with a seller (the “Seller”), pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets, primarily intellectual property, of the Seller (the “Acquired Assets”) for consideration of $75,000 (the “Total Consideration”), which was paid in cash on May 11, 2023. In addition, the seller has been employed by the Company.

The Asset Purchase Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and the Seller. The Asset Purchase Agreement also contains post-closing indemnification provisions pursuant to which the parties have agreed to indemnify each other against losses resulting from certain events, including breaches of representations and warranties, covenants and certain other matters.

The Company determined that the transaction should be accounted for as an asset acquisition because substantially all of the fair value of the Acquired Assets is concentrated in a single asset. The total cost of the intellectual property acquired of $75,000 is included in intangible assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 5 years.

NOTE 4    INVENTORY DEPOSITS

Inventory deposits consists of amounts paid in advance to vendors to secure future deliveries of specific finished goods and raw materials which will be received and sold in future periods.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31,2022, the Company had outstanding inventory deposits of $44,728 and $285,260, respectively.

On September 23, 2022, the Company entered into a Supplemental Agreement (the “Supplemental Agreement”) to its Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (the “SEPA”) with YA II PN, Ltd. (“Yorkville”). Under the Supplemental Agreement, the Company may from time-to-time request advances of up to $15,000,000 (each, a “Prepaid Advance”) from Yorkville with a limitation on the aggregate amount of such advances of $50,000,000. At any time that there is a balance outstanding under a Prepaid Advance, the Company is not permitted to deliver Advance Notices (as defined in Note 13, Stockholders’ Equity) under the SEPA.

Each Prepaid Advance matures 12 months after the date of the closing of such advance (the “Prepaid Advance Date”), and accrues interest at 10% per annum, subject to an increase to 15% per annum upon events of default as defined. Any Prepaid Advance balance that remains outstanding at maturity must be repaid in cash.

Pursuant to the terms of the Supplemental Agreement, Yorkville has the right to receive shares to pay down Prepaid Advances, and may select the timing and delivery of such shares (via an “Investor Notice”), in an amount up to the balance of the Prepaid Advance at a price equal to the lower of (a) 135% of the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock on the day immediately prior the closing of the Prepaid Advance, or (b) 95% of the lowest VWAP during the three days immediately prior to the Investor Notice.

Table of Contents

transformative and scalable solutions across transportation, renewable energy (wind farm), manufacturing, industrial, performance racing and autonomous aerial (drone) applications among others. KULR VIBE addresses one the most challenging issues with advanced machinery today; excessive energy robbing vibrations that are destructive to both the machinery and in many cases the operator. The KULR VIBE suite of technologies utilize proprietary sensor processes with advanced learning algorithms to both achieve precision balancing solutions, and successfully predict component failure based on its comprehensive database of vibration signatures. Its enhanced AI learning algorithms pinpoint areas where excess vibrations cause a loss of energy that can lead to system malfunctions, weakened performance, and maintenance issues.

This innovative technology can be utilized as a standalone solution or be paired with existing track and balance technology to facilitate vibration reduction, achieve increased energy production, and reduce mechanical failures thereby extending platform life. KULR VIBE recently balanced the motors and blades of a mission critical drone to demonstrate the benefits of the technology. The results were a 23% increase in battery life and a lift increase of 45%. Same motors, same blades, KULR VIBE optimized.

The KULR VIBE suite of products and services have provided vibration analysis and mitigation to global companies across multiple industries and sectors. According to Fact.MR, an insights-driven global market intelligence company, the global vibration motor market is estimated at $6.5 billion in 2023 and is forecast to reach $24.1 billion by 2032, growing at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (“CAGR”) of 14.1% during 2023-2032.

The increase during 2023 was comprised primarily of $518,908 related to planned increases in headcount in order to build future capacity, partially offset by a reduction in R&D costs of $158,500 related to a decline in outsourced R&D costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, R&D expenses were $2,796,294 and $1,720,831, respectively, representing an increase of $1,075,463 or 62%. The increase during 2023 was comprised primarily of $1,079,372 related to planned increases in headcount in order to build future capacity, rent expense of $30,782 for a new facility for R&D initiatives designed to build future revenue growth, partially offset by a reduction in R&D costs related to a decline in outsourced R&D costs.

We expect that our R&D expenses will increase as we expand our future operations.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses consisted primarily of cash and stock-based compensation, payroll taxes and other benefits, consulting fees, registration fees, office expenses, rent expense, directors and officers insurance, travel and entertainment, marketing and advertising, and filing fees.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses were $5,591,516 and $4,326,162, respectively, representing an increase of $1,265,354, or 29%. The increase is primarily due to increases in labor costs of $442,414, depreciation expense of $400,842 due to the completion of automation equipment and enhancements to the facility, consulting fees of $251,626, travel costs of $180,699 for conferences and customer visits to build future revenue growth, costs related to the acquisition of vibration technology of $125,000, partially offset by a decrease in marketing and advertising expenses of $184,501, and a decrease of $106,475 in stock-based compensation.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses were $11,107,407 and $7,861,085, respectively, representing an increase of $3,246,322, or 41%. The increase is primarily due to increases in labor costs of $1,449,895, depreciation expense of $599,817 due to the completion of automation equipment and enhancements to the facility, consulting fees of $462,391, marketing and advertising expenses of $342,906, $316,817 related to travel and conferences to build future revenue growth, costs related to the acquisition of vibration technology of $250,000, partially offset by a decrease of $437,294 in stock-based compensation.

Other Income (Expense)

The change is primarily attributable to an additional $154,736 for interest recorded in connection with the Prepaid Advance, an additional $111,335 for amortization of debt discount in connection with the Prepaid Advance, partially offset by a $21,399 change in the fair value of accrued issuable equity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023 and December 2022, we had cash balances of $1,320,651 and $10,333,563, respectively, and working capital (deficit) of $(4,719,810) and $6,055,477, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash used in operating activities was $9,858,687 and $9,010,695, respectively. Our cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $12,937,853, adjusted for non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $3,192,878, as well as $113,712 of net cash used to fund changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. Our cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $9,391,240, adjusted for non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $2,485,419, as well as $2,104,874 of net cash used to fund changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash used in investing activities was $894,976 and $546,784, respectively. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 included $567,332 related to deposits for property and equipment, $192,644 related to purchases of property and equipment and $135,000 for the acquisition of intangible assets. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was related to deposits paid for equipment of $429,008 and purchases of property and equipment of $117,776.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash provided by financing activities was $1,740,751 and $7,685,910, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was from proceeds from the second prepaid advance of $2,000,000, partially offset by $229,249 for the repurchase of common stock to pay tax on behalf of an employee for vested shares of restricted common stock and $30,000 for financing costs associated with the prepaid advance. Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was from a promissory note of $4,750,000, proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $3,020,835 and proceeds from the exercise of options of $5,075, partially offset by issuance costs related to the note payable and deferred financing costs related to the SEPA for $17,200 and $72,800, respectively.

Future cash requirements for our current liabilities include $7,546,237 for the Prepaid Advances (if the holder does not convert the liability into shares of common stock), $3,939,449 for accounts payable and accrued expenses and $242,078 for future payments under operating leases. The Company has also committed to spend $807,515 related to capital expenditures for automation equipment, $500,000 in connection with an asset purchase agreement, and $441,192 for research and development. There are no cash requirements for long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2023. The Company intends to meet these cash requirements from its current cash balance, proceeds from future financing activites and from future revenues.

Our primary source of liquidity has historically been cash generated from equity and debt offerings. Under ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (“ASC 205-40”), we have the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about our ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. We have a history of recurring net losses, recurring use of cash in operations and declining working capital. As of the date of these financial statements, we have no commitments to obtain additional funding and current obligations come due in September 2023. Pursuant to an agreement with Yorkville executed on August 16, 2023, $3,150,000 owed in connection with our prepaid advance liability must be paid by August 25, 2023, and three additional payments, each in the amount of $1,383,333, are to be paid on the last day of each of October 2023, November 2023, and December 2023. As of the date of these financial statements, we have no commitments to obtain additional funding. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuance as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional operating capital and ultimately achieve revenue growth and attain profitability.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in financial conditions, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Estimates

For a description of our critical accounting estimates, see Critical Accounting Estimates in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 28, 2023. There have been no changes to these critical accounting estimates since the Form 10-K was filed.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1) and are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, our management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which continued to exist as of June 30, 2023. We did not design or maintain effective controls to ensure that there is an independent review and approval of electronic payments (wires, EFT’s, ACH’s and credit card payments). During May 2023, we implemented preventative controls around the electronic payment process to ensure proper segregation of duties. Such controls require being in place for a full reporting quarter to evaluate effectiveness. As such, we expect the material weakness will be remediated as of September 30, 2023, although no assurance can be given that this will be the outcome.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as described above.

Inherent Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 28, 2023, except as follows.

We might not be able to continue as a going concern, which would likely cause our stockholders to lose most or all of their investment.

Our financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we would continue as a going concern. However, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, because without additional sources of funding, our cash at June 30, 2023 is not sufficient for us to operate as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued. Management’s plans concerning these matters, including our need to raise additional capital, are described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Going Concern of our financial statements included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, however, management cannot assure you that its plans will be successful. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in us.
