Contingent Value Rights and Impact on Cash
Previous report
The Company issued CVRs prior to the Closing to CSI shareholders of record on the close of business on March 25, 2022. The CVR entitles the holder to a portion of the cash, cash equivalents, investments and net proceeds of any divestiture, assignment, or other disposition of all legacy assets of CSI and/or its legacy subsidiaries, JDL and Ecessa, that are related to CSI’s pre-merger business, assets, and properties that occur during the 24-month period following the Closing. The CVR liability as of September 30, 2025 was estimated at $288,948 and represented the estimated fair value as of that date of the legacy CSI assets to be distributed to CVR holders as of that date. This amount is recorded as a current liability that includes the remaining restricted cash and cash equivalents. The proceeds from CSI’s pre-merger business working capital and related long-term assets and liabilities are not available to fund the working capital needs of the post-merger company.
Previous report
Goodwill: Goodwill is recorded as the difference, if any, between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from acquisitions. We test goodwill for impairment annually on October 1 or more frequently if events and circumstances warrant. Such events and circumstances may be a significant change in our business climate, economic and industry trends, legal factors, negative operating performance indicators, significant competition or changes in strategy. We perform our goodwill impairment test at the reporting unit level, which is the same as our operating segments.
Previous report
An impairment charge for goodwill is recognized only when the estimated fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount. In applying the goodwill impairment assessment, the Company may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Qualitative factors may include, but are not limited to, economic, market and industry conditions, cost factors and overall financial performance of the reporting unit. If after assessing these qualitative factors, the Company determines it is "more-likely-than not" that the fair value is less than the carrying value, a quantitative assessment of goodwill is required. The quantitative impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, the assignment of assets, liabilities and goodwill to reporting units, and the determination of fair value of each reporting unit. The impairment test requires the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. We estimate the reporting units’ fair value using a combination of the income approach based upon projected discounted cash flows of the reporting unit and the market approach based upon the market multiple of comparable publicly traded companies. If the estimated fair value of the reporting entity exceeds the carrying value, the goodwill is not impaired, and no further review is required. However, if the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment expense should be recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value.
Previous report
Under the income approach, the estimated discounted cash flows are based on the best information available to us at the time, including supportable assumptions and projections we believe are reasonable. Our discounted cash flow estimates use discount rates that correspond to a weighted-average cost of capital consistent with a market-participant view. Certain other key assumptions utilized, including revenue and cash flow projections, are based on estimates consistent with those utilized in our annual budgeting and planning process that we believe are reasonable. However, if we do not achieve the results reflected in the assumptions and estimates, our goodwill impairment evaluations could be adversely affected, and we may impair a portion or all of our goodwill, which would adversely affect our operating results in the period of impairment.
Previous report
The market approach identifies the revenue multiples of comparable publicly traded companies. The reporting unit’s revenue projections are multiplied by the market multiple to estimate its current estimated fair value. If the market multiples or revenue value assumptions are incorrect, our goodwill impairment evaluation could also be adversely affected, and we may impair a portion or all of our goodwill, which would adversely affect our operating results in the period of impairment.
Previous report
During the third quarter of 2025, as a result of a material decline forecasted revenues and operating results due to the implications of the OBBBA, we performed an interim quantitative analysis as of September 30, 2025. Based on the results of this analysis, we concluded that there was no impairment indication within our HEC and SUNation NY reporting units as there was adequate cushion of 21% and 34%, respectively, between the fair value and carrying value of the reporting units.
Previous report
Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets and definite lived intangible assetsfor impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If indicators of impairment exist, management identifies the asset group that includes the potentially impaired long-lived asset, at the lowest level at which there are separate, identifiable cash flows. If the fair value for the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.
Previous report
During the third quarter of 2025, as a result of the OBBBA, the Company performed an impairment test on the tradenames and trademarks intangible assets associated with both the HEC and SUNation NY reporting units as of September 30, 2025. The Company calculated the undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset groups and compared that to the carrying value of the asset groups. As the asset groups did not meet the recoverability test, the Company calculated the fair value of the tradenames and trademarks intangible assets and compared it to the carrying value of the intangible assets. The fair value of the intangible assets within both reporting units was less than the carrying value, however, since the carrying value of the asset groups, was less than the fair value of the asset groups, as calculated in the goodwill impairment analysis, no impairment charge was realized.

Based on the Company’s current financial position, which includes approximately $0.3 million of restricted cash, cash equivalents and investments that are restricted under the CVR agreement and cannot be used by the Company for its own working capital needs, and the Company’s forecasted future cash flows for twelve months beyond the date of issuance of these financial statements, substantial doubt exists around the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. As noted in Notes 6, 9 and 14, the Company raised capital and satisfied certain outstanding debt obligations during 2025, however there remains uncertainty related to our future cash flows as it relies on the ability to generate enough cash flow from its operating segments to cover the Company’s corporate overhead costs.

As a result, the Company requires additional funding and seeks to raise capital through sources that may include public or private equity offerings, debt financings and/or strategic alliances. On February 27, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of $20.0 million in securities, with $15.0 million in gross proceeds in the first closing on February 27, 2025 and $5.0 million in gross proceeds in the second closing on April 7, 2025. While the Company was able to use the proceeds to pay off approximately $12.6 million in outstanding debt and contingent liability obligations, it was not sufficient to cover all of the Company’s current and future obligations. Additional funding may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, it would have a negative impact on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. To the extent that additional funds are raised through the sale of equity or securities convertible into or exercisable for equity securities, the issuance of securities will result in dilution to the Company’s shareholders.

In the first half of 2024, the Battery Bonus program in Hawaii ended. Battery installations decreased when this incentive went away. In May 2025, Hawaii implemented a new BYOD Plus program. The impact of this new program was realized in third quarter installations. Under this program, customers were paid a cash incentive and provided energy bill credits to add energy storage to an existing or new rooftop solar system.
