NOTE 1— BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Acorn Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019. All dollar amounts in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are in thousands except for per share data.

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

NOTE 2—RECENT AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE

Recently Issued

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

8

Recently Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which is effective for fiscal years beginning as of December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years with early adoption permitted. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize for all leases at the commencement date a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease measured on a discounted basis, and a right-to-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use or control the use of a specified asset for the lease term.

The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2019 and applied the transition guidance as of the date of adoption, under the current period adjustment method. As a result, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with its leases on January 1, 2019, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit, while the comparable prior periods in its consolidated financial statements will continue to be reported in accordance with Topic 840, including the disclosures of Topic 840.

The standard includes a number of optional practical expedients under the transaction guidance. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients which allows it to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company also made accounting policy elections by class of underlying asset to not apply the recognition requirements of the standard to leases with terms of 12 months or less and to not separate non-lease components from lease components. Consequently, each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component will be accounted for as a single lease component for lease classification, recognition, and measurement purposes. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company recognized a lease obligation liability of $44 recorded in other current liabilities, and a right-of-use asset of $44 recorded in property and equipment, net. An adjustment of $26 was made to reduce the right-of-use asset and deferred rent to reflect the impact of the retrospective approach on adopting this guidance. The lease obligation liability was $38 as of June 30, 2019 which includes the original lease as well as a new lease entered in to during the quarter.

The core principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle, which includes: (1) identifying contracts with customers, (2) identifying performance obligations within those contracts, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, which may include an estimate of variable consideration, and (5) recognizing revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied.

Sales of OmniMetrix monitoring systems include the sale of equipment (“HW”) and of monitoring services (“Monitoring”). Revenue (and related costs) associated with sale of equipment are recorded to deferred revenue (and deferred charges) upon shipment for PG and CP monitoring units. Revenue and related costs with respect to the sale of equipment are recognized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years (two years up to December 31, 2017). Revenues from the prepayment of monitoring fees (generally paid twelve months in advance) are initially recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt of payment from the customer and then amortized to revenue over the monitoring service period.

The Company pays its employees sales commissions for sales of HW and for first sales of monitoring services (not for renewals). In accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 606”), the Company capitalizes as a contract asset the sales commissions on these sales. Contract assets associated with HW are amortized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years (two years up to December 31, 2017). Contract assets associated with monitoring services are amortized over the expected monitoring life including renewals.

NOTE 3—INVESTMENT IN OMNIMETRIX

In 2015, one of the Company’s then-current directors (the “Investor”) acquired a 20% interest in the Company’s OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) through the purchase of $1,000 of OmniMetrix Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Holdings is the holder of 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC through which the Company operates its Power Generation and Cathodic Protection monitoring activities. The $1,000 investment by the Investor was recorded as an increase in non-controlling interests.

A dividend of 10% per annum accrued on the Preferred Stock. The dividend was payable on the first anniversary of the funding of the investment and quarterly thereafter for so long as the Preferred Stock was outstanding and had not been converted to Common Stock. Through December 31, 2016, a dividend payable of $115 was recorded with respect to the Preferred Stock. On December 31, 2016, the Investor agreed to treat the $115 of accrued dividends and all subsequent accrued and unpaid dividends as a loan to Holdings which bore interest at 8% per year. In December 2016, the Investor provided Holdings with an additional $50 loan under the same terms as the abovementioned accrued dividends.

On May 14, 2018, Holdings and the Investor entered into an agreement whereby effective May 1, 2018, the dividend on the Preferred Stock was reduced to 8%. In addition, all the amounts due to the Investor (accrued dividends, loan and accrued interest) and all future dividends that would accrue on the Preferred Stock through June 30, 2020, were to be paid by Holdings pursuant to an agreed-upon payment schedule which was scheduled to end on June 30, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $20 for the quarterly dividend. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $40 for quarterly dividends in the aggregate. At June 30, 2019, the obligation to the Investor was $323, representing unpaid accrued dividends.

On July 1, 2019, in accordance with terms established in 2015 at the time of the original investment, the Company repurchased from the Investor the shares of Preferred Stock then held by the Investor for a purchase price of $1,273 (which included the $323 of unpaid accrued dividends through June 30, 2019). The repurchase raised the Company’s ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

NOTE 4—DEBT

In March 2019, OmniMetrix reinstated its Loan and Security Agreement providing OmniMetrix with access to accounts receivable formula-based financing of the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or $1,000. Debt incurred under this financing arrangement bears interest at the greater of 6% and prime (5.5% at June 30, 2019) plus 1.5% per year. In addition, OmniMetrix is to pay a monthly service charge of 0.75% of the average aggregate principal amount outstanding for the prior month, for an effective rate of interest on advances of 16% during the six months ended June 30, 2019. OmniMetrix also agreed to continue to maintain a minimum loan balance of $150 in its line-of-credit with the lender for a minimum of two years beginning March 1, 2019. From time to time, the balance outstanding may fall below $150 based on collections applied against the loan balance and the timing of loan draws. The monthly service charge and interest is calculated on the greater of the outstanding balance or $150. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $8 and $16, respectively. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $9 and $39, respectively.

OmniMetrix had an outstanding balance of $191 at June 30, 2019, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement and $312 was available to borrow.

NOTE 5—EQUITY

(a) Rights Offering

On June 28, 2019, the Company completed a rights offering, raising $2,206 in proceeds, net of $188 in expenses. Pursuant to the rights offering, Acorn securityholders and parties to a backstop agreement purchased 9,975,553 shares of Acorn common stock for $0.24 per share.

Under the terms of the rights offering, each right entitled securityholders as of June 3, 2019, the record date for the rights offering, to purchase 0.312 shares of Acorn common stock at a subscription price of $0.24 per whole share. No fractional shares were issued. The closing price of Acorn’s common stock on the record date of the rights offering was $0.2925. Distribution of the rights commenced on June 6, 2019 and were exercisable through June 24, 2019.

In connection with the rights offering, Acorn entered into a backstop agreement with certain of its directors and Leap Tide Capital Management LLC, the sole manager of which is Acorn’s President and CEO, pursuant to which they agreed to purchase from Acorn any and all unsubscribed shares of common stock in the rights offering, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the backstop agreement. The backstop purchasers did not receive any compensation or other consideration for entering into or consummating the backstop agreement.

On July 1, 2019, the Company utilized a portion of the rights offering proceeds to complete the planned reacquisition of a 19% interest in its OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) for $1,273. Holdings owns 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC. The purchase price was based on terms established in November 2015 at the time of the original investment. The purchase raised Acorn’s ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

The balance of the rights offering net proceeds provides OmniMetrix with additional sales and marketing resources to facilitate expansion into additional geographic markets and new product applications, to support next-generation product development and for general working capital purposes.

(b) Summary Employee Option Information

At June 30, 2019, 1,371,114 options were available for grant under the 2006 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan and no options were available for grant under the 2006 Director Plan.

NOTE 6— SEGMENT REPORTING

As of June 30, 2019, the Company operates in two reportable operating segments, both of which are performed though the Company’s OmniMetrix subsidiary:

● The PG (Power Generation) segment provides wireless remote monitoring and control systems and services for critical assets as well as Internet of Things applications.

● The CP (Cathodic Protection) segment provides for remote monitoring of cathodic protection systems on gas pipelines for gas utilities and pipeline companies.

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units, offering different products and services and are managed separately as each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

The following tables represent segmented data for the six- and three-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018:

	PG			CP			Total

12

The gross profit of the PG segment during the six months ended June 30, 2019 included a $30 accrual, which unfavorably impacted gross margin by 1%. The accrual was for an estimated payment of approximately $30 related to a long-term purchase commitment of what is now discontinued technology that has been replaced with upgraded technology. This adjustment is recorded in cost of sales – other.

The Company does not currently break out total assets by reportable segment as there is a high level of shared utilization between the segments. Further, the Chief Decision Maker (CDM) does not review the assets by segment.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” relating to the Company which represent the Company’s current expectations or beliefs including, but not limited to, statements concerning the Company’s operations, performance, financial condition and growth. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “could”, “estimate” or “continue” or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, such as credit losses, dependence on management and key personnel, variability of quarterly results, and the ability of the Company to continue its growth strategy and the Company’s competition, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, or any of the other risks set out under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2018 occur, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, OmniMetrix recorded an accrual for an estimated payment of approximately $30,000 for a long-term purchase commitment of what is now discontinued technology that has been replaced with upgraded technology. This adjustment is recorded as cost of sales – other and is included in the OmniMetrix gross profit in the six-months ended June 30, 2019 in the table above. Gross profit excluding this non-recurring adjustment would be $1,752,000, or 65%. We will pursue selling the inventory in the secondary market to recover some of this write-off but we have no guarantee that we will find a buyer for the inventory.

BACKLOG

As of June 30, 2019, our backlog of work to be completed (primarily deferred revenue) at our OmniMetrix subsidiary totaled approximately $4.1 million.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

In March 2019, OmniMetrix reinstated its Loan and Security Agreement providing OmniMetrix with access to accounts receivable formula-based financing of the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or $1 million. Debt incurred under this financing arrangement bears interest at the greater of 6% and prime (5.25% at August 9, 2019) plus 1.5% per year. In addition, OmniMetrix is to pay a monthly service charge of 0.75% of the average aggregate principal amount outstanding for the prior month, for a current effective rate of interest on advances of 15.8%. The monthly service charge and interest is calculated on the greater of the outstanding balance or $150,000. From time to time, the balance outstanding may fall below $150,000 based on collections applied against the loan balance and the timing of loan draws.

OVERVIEW AND TREND INFORMATION

Acorn Energy, Inc. (“Acorn” or “the Company”) is a holding company focused on technology driven solutions for energy infrastructure asset management. We provide the following services and products through our OmniMetrix^TM, LLC (“OmniMetrix”) subsidiary:

● Power Generation (“PG”) monitoring. OmniMetrix’s PG activities provide wireless remote monitoring and control systems and services for critical assets as well as Internet of Things applications.

● Cathodic Protection (“CP”) monitoring. OmniMetrix’s CP activities provide for remote monitoring of cathodic protection systems on gas pipelines for gas utilities and pipeline companies.

On January 18, 2018, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement for the sale of our remaining interest in DSIT to an Israeli investor group (the “2018 DSIT Transaction”). Following the closing of the transaction on February 14, 2018, we no longer report DSIT’s results on the equity method.

Each of our PG and CP activities represents a reportable segment. The following analysis should be read together with the segment information provided in Note 6 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

OmniMetrix

OmniMetrix LLC is a Georgia limited liability company based in Buford, Georgia that develops and markets wireless remote monitoring and control systems and services for multiple markets in the Internet of Things (“IoT”) ecosystem: critical assets (including stand-by power generators, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers, turbines, compressors, as well as other industrial equipment) as well as cathodic protection for the pipeline industry (gas utilities and pipeline companies). Acorn owned 80% of OmniMetrix until July 1, 2019 when it purchased 19% of the minority interest, which brought its ownership interest to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by OmniMetrix’s CEO.

Following the emergence of machine-to-machine (“M2M”) and IoT applications whereby companies aggregate multiple sensors and monitors into a simplified dashboard for customers, OmniMetrix believes it plays a key role in this new economic ecosystem. In addition, OmniMetrix sees a rapidly growing need for backup power infrastructure to secure critical military, government, and private sector assets against emergency events including terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and cybersecurity threats. As residential and industrial standby generators, turbines, compressors, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers and other industrial equipment are part of the critical infrastructure increasingly becoming monitored in Internet of Things applications, and given that OmniMetrix monitors all major brands of critical equipment, OmniMetrix believes it is well-positioned as a competitive participant in this new market.

Sales of OmniMetrix monitoring systems include the sale of equipment and of monitoring services. Revenue (and related costs) associated with sale of equipment are recorded to deferred revenue (and deferred charges) upon shipment for PG and CP monitoring units. Revenue and related costs with respect to the sale of equipment are recognized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years (two years up to December 31, 2017). Revenues from the prepayment of monitoring fees (generally paid twelve months in advance) are initially recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt of payment from the customer and then amortized to revenue over the monitoring service period.

OmniMetrix has two divisions: PG and CP. In the first six months of 2019, OmniMetrix recognized $2,704,000 of revenue ($2,053,000 in PG activities and $651,000 in CP activities) as compared to $2,439,000 ($1,767,000 in PG activities and $672,000 in CP activities) recorded in the first six months of 2018, representing an increase in revenue of 11%. Revenue from monitoring increased 21% from $1,299,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $1,570,000 in the first six months of 2019 while revenue recognized from the sale of hardware decreased 1% from $1,140,000 in the first six months of 2018 as compared to $1,134,000 in the first six months of 2019. The increase in revenue is driven by a significant increase in monitoring revenue resulting from the increased number of units being monitored as a result of focused sales initiatives on the industrial and commercial markets. The decrease in hardware revenue was due to sales team not being fully-staffed during this period.

Gross profit of $1,722,000 for the first six months of 2019 reflected a gross margin of 64% on the period’s revenue. However, the gross profit during this period included a $30,000 accrual, which unfavorably impacted our gross margin by 1%. The accrual was for an estimated payment of approximately $30,000 for a long-term purchase commitment of what is now discontinued technology that has been replaced with upgraded technology. This adjustment is recorded in cost of sales – other. We will pursue selling the inventory in the secondary market to recover some of this write-off but we have no guarantee that we will find a buyer for the inventory.

Such gross profit represents significant increase from first six months of 2018’s gross profit of $1,481,000 (gross margin of 61%). The increase in the gross profit compared to the first six months of 2018 was attributable to increased revenue, increased margin on hardware sales, and more favorable product and segment mix as monitoring has a higher gross margin than hardware. OmniMetrix’s gross margin on hardware revenue increased 4% from 35% in the first half of 2018 to 39% in the first half of 2019. The margin on monitoring revenue remained flat at 83% in the first half of 2019 when compared to the same period in the prior year.

During the first six months of 2019, OmniMetrix recorded $283,000 of Research and Development (“R&D”) expense as compared to approximately $260,000 of R&D expense in the first six months of 2018. The increase is related to the continued development of next generation PG and CP monitors.

17

During the first six months of 2019, OmniMetrix recorded $1,451,000 of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense. Such costs reflect an increase of $97,000 (7%) as compared to SG&A expense of $1,354,000 in the first six months of 2018. This increase is primarily due to an increase in 2019 personnel costs of $47,000 from the same period in the prior year as a result of investments in the growth of the business. The Company plans to continue to make investments to expand its sales department, upgrade its software monitoring options, and implement a new ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system to provide more integrated backoffice operations.

Second quarter 2019 SG&A expense of $722,000 was essentially flat to the first quarter 2019 SG&A expense which was $729,000.

Corporate

Corporate selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense of $452,000 in the first six months of 2019 reflected a decrease of $327,000, or 42%, from the $779,000 of SG&A expense reported in the first six months of 2018. The decrease is primarily due to a material reduction in personnel costs as well as a reduction in board fees and other professional service fees. Second quarter 2019 SG&A expense increased $34,000, or 16%, from first quarter 2019 SG&A expense of $209,000 due to tax and other seasonal expenses. We do not expect the quarterly corporate overhead to change materially except as may be required to support the growth of our OmniMetrix subsidiary.

On February 14, 2018, we closed on the 2018 DSIT Transaction initially entered into on January 18, 2018 for the sale of our remaining 41.15% interest in our DSIT Solutions Ltd. business to an Israeli investor group. At closing, we received gross proceeds of $5.8 million before transaction costs, professional fees and withholding taxes. From the gross proceeds, we paid $388,000 of withholding taxes, paid or accrued $441,000 of transaction costs and recorded a loss of $829,000 as the carrying value of our investment in DSIT had previously been written down to the gross proceeds of the 2018 DSIT Transaction. From the proceeds, we also repaid $1,600,000 of amounts due to DSIT and the entire $1.3 million of loan principal borrowed from certain directors during 2017 along with accrued interest thereon of $128,000.

OmniMetrix’s increased revenue was primarily attributable to increased monitoring which increased from $657,000 in the second quarter of 2018 to $804,000 in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in monitoring revenue resulted from an increase in the number of units being monitored.

Revenue increased by $265,000, or 11%, from $2,439,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $2,704,000 in the first six months of 2019. OmniMetrix’s increased revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in monitoring revenue which increased from $1,299,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $1,570,000 in the first six months of 2019. Hardware sales revenue was essentially flat in the first six months of 2019 with revenue of $1,134,000 compared to hardware sales revenue in the first six months of 2018 of $1,140,000. Hardware sales revenue is recognized over the estimated useful life of the hardware which is thirty-six months. The increase in monitoring revenue resulted from an increase in the number of units being monitored.

Gross profit. OmniMetrix’s gross profit increased $241,000, or 16%, in the first six months of 2019 compared to the first six months of 2018, from $1,481,000 to $1,722,000. However, the gross profit during this period included a $30,000 accrual, which unfavorably impacted our gross margin by 1%. The accrual was for an estimated payment of approximately $30,000 for a long-term purchase commitment of what is now discontinued technology that has been replaced with upgraded technology. This adjustment was recorded in the first quarter in cost of sales – other. We will pursue selling the inventory in the secondary market to recover some of this write-off but we have no guarantee that we will find a buyer for the inventory. The increase in gross profit in the first six months of 2019 was attributable to OmniMetrix’s increased revenue.

OmniMetrix’s gross profit increased $165,000, or 22%, in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $736,000 to $901,000. The increase in the second quarter of 2019 was attributed to the same reason as the increase in the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 discussed above.

20

Research and development expenses. OmniMetrix’s R&D expense increased $23,000, or 9%, from $260,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $283,000 in the first six months of 2019 as it continues development of next-generation PG and CP monitors. OmniMetrix’s R&D expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 did not materially increase over the same period last year with an increase of 8,000, or 6%, from $131,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $139,000 in the three six months ended June 30, 2019 as it continues development of next-generation PG and CP monitors.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A expenses in the first six months of 2019 reflected a decrease of $230,000, or 11%, as compared to the first six months of 2018. OmniMetrix’s SG&A expense increased $97,000, or 7%, from $1,354,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $1,451,000 in the first six months of 2019. Corporate SG&A expense decreased $327,000, or 42%, from $779,000 in the first six months of 2018 to $452,000 in the first six months of 2019. As previously noted the increase in OmniMetrix SG&A expense was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs from the same period in the prior year as a result of investments in the growth of the business, and the decrease in Corporate SG&A expense is due to a material reduction in personnel costs as well as a reduction in board fees and other professional service fees.

SG&A expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2019 reflected a decrease of $184,000, or 16%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. OmniMetrix’s SG&A expense increased $39,000, or 6%, from $683,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $722,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2019. Corporate SG&A expense decreased $223,000, or 48%, from $466,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $243,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2019. As previously noted the increase in OmniMetrix SG&A expense was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs from the same period in the prior year as a result of investments in the growth of the business, and the decrease in Corporate SG&A expense is due to a material reduction in personnel costs as well as a reduction in board fees and other professional service fees.

Loss on sale of DSIT. In the first quarter of 2018, we closed on the sale of our remaining interests in DSIT Solutions Ltd., receiving gross proceeds of $5.8 million before transaction costs, professional fees and withholding taxes. We recorded a loss on the sale of $829,000 as the carrying value of our investment in DSIT had previously been written down to the gross proceeds of the 2018 DSIT Transaction.

Net loss attributable to Acorn Energy. We recognized a net loss attributable to Acorn shareholders of $436,000 in the first six months of 2019 compared to a net loss of $1,760,000 in the first six months of 2018. Our loss in 2019 is comprised of net loss at OmniMetrix of $117,000 plus corporate expense of $320,000. These losses were partially offset by $29,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our loss in OmniMetrix.

We recognized a net loss attributable to Acorn shareholders of $199,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a net loss of $538,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our loss in the second quarter 2019 is comprised of net loss at OmniMetrix of $20,000 plus corporate expense of $179,000. These losses were partially offset by $5,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our loss in OmniMetrix.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2019, we had working capital of $828,000. Our working capital includes approximately $2,933,000 of cash (excluding restricted cash) and deferred revenue of approximately $2.7 million. Such deferred revenue does not require significant cash outlay for the revenue to be recognized.

During the first six months of 2019, our OmniMetrix subsidiary used $81,000 in its operations while our corporate headquarters used $342,000 during the same period.

Net cash of $2,397,000 was provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2019 which included $2,206,000 in net proceeds of our rights offering (gross proceeds of $2,394,000 less expenses of $188,000) and draws against our line of credit of $191,000.

21

In March 2019, OmniMetrix reinstated its Loan and Security Agreement providing OmniMetrix with access to accounts receivable formula-based financing of the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or $1 million. Debt incurred under this financing arrangement bears interest at the greater of 6% and prime (5.25% at August 9, 2019) plus 1.5% per year. In addition, OmniMetrix is to pay a monthly service charge of 0.75% of the average aggregate principal amount outstanding for the prior month, for a current effective rate of interest on advances of 15.8%. OmniMetrix also agreed to continue to maintain a minimum loan balance of $150,000 in its line-of-credit with the lender for a minimum of two years beginning March 1, 2019. The monthly service charge and interest is calculated on the greater of the outstanding balance or $150,000. From time to time, the balance outstanding may fall below $150,000 based on collections applied against the loan balance and the timing of loan draws.

OmniMetrix had an outstanding balance of $191,000 at June 30, 2019, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement and $312,000 was available to borrow.

Rights Offering

On June 28, 2019, we completed a rights offering, raising $2,206,000 in proceeds, net of $188,000 in expenses. Pursuant to the rights offering, our securityholders and parties to a backstop agreement purchased 9,975,553 shares of our common stock for $0.24 per share.

Under the terms of the rights offering, each right entitled securityholders as of June 3, 2019, the record date for the rights offering, to purchase 0.312 shares of our common stock at a subscription price of $0.24 per whole share. No fractional shares were issued. The closing price of our common stock on the record date of the rights offering was $0.2925. Distribution of the rights commenced on June 6, 2019 and were exercisable through June 24, 2019.

In connection with the rights offering, we entered into a backstop agreement with certain of our directors and Leap Tide Capital Management LLC, the sole manager of which is our President and CEO, pursuant to which they agreed to purchase from us any and all unsubscribed shares of common stock in the rights offering, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the backstop agreement. The backstop purchasers did not receive any compensation or other consideration for entering into or consummating the backstop agreement.

On July 1, 2019, we utilized a portion of the rights offering proceeds to complete the planned reacquisition of a 19% interest in our OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) for $1.273 million. Holdings owns 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC. The purchase price was based on terms established in November 2015 at the time of the original investment. The purchase raised our ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

The balance of the rights offering net proceeds provides OmniMetrix with additional sales and marketing resources to facilitate expansion into additional geographic markets and new product applications, to support next-generation product development and for general working capital purposes.

Purchase of Non-Controlling Interest

In 2015, one of our then-current directors (the “Investor”) acquired a 20% interest in the our OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) through the purchase of $1,000,000 of OmniMetrix Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Holdings is the holder of 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC through which we operate our Power Generation and Cathodic Protection monitoring activities. The $1,000,000 investment by the Investor was recorded as an increase in non-controlling interests.

A dividend of 10% per annum accrued on the Preferred Stock. The dividend was payable on the first anniversary of the funding of the investment and quarterly thereafter for so long as the Preferred Stock was outstanding and had not been converted to Common Stock. Through December 31, 2016, a dividend payable of $115,000 was recorded with respect to the Preferred Stock. On December 31, 2016, the Investor agreed to treat the $115,000 of accrued dividends and all subsequent accrued and unpaid dividends as a loan to Holdings which bore interest at 8% per year. In December 2016, the Investor provided Holdings with an additional $50,000 loan under the same terms as the above mentioned accrued dividends.

22

On May 14, 2018, Holdings and the Investor entered into an agreement whereby effective May 1, 2018, the dividend on the Preferred Stock was reduced to 8%. In addition, all the amounts due to the Investor (accrued dividends, loan and accrued interest) and all future dividends that would accrue on the Preferred Stock through June 30, 2020, were to be paid by Holdings pursuant to an agreed-upon payment schedule which was scheduled to end on June 30, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $20,000 for the quarterly dividend. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $40,000 in quarterly dividends in the aggregate. At June 30, 2019, the obligation to the Investor was $323,000, representing unpaid accrued dividends.

On July 1, 2019, in accordance with terms established in 2015 at the time of the original investment, the Company repurchased from the Investor the shares of Preferred Stock then held by the Investor for a purchase price of $1,273,000 (which included the $323,000 of unpaid accrued dividends through June 30, 2019). The repurchase raised the Company’s ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

OmniMetrix owes Acorn approximately $4.0 million for loans, accrued interest and expenses advanced to it by Acorn.

We had approximately $2,933,000 of cash (excluding restricted cash of $304,000) on June 30, 2019, and approximately $1,577,000 (excluding restricted cash of $304,000) on August 9, 2019. OmniMetrix had $146,000 outstanding on its line of credit and had $326,000 available to draw under its credit line as of August 9, 2019. We believe that our current cash plus the cash expected to be generated from operations and borrowing from available lines of credit will provide sufficient liquidity to finance the operating activities of Acorn and the operations of OmniMetrix for at least the next twelve months.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

The table below provides information concerning obligations under certain categories of our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2019.

CASH PAYMENTS DUE TO CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, escrow deposits and trade accounts receivable. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and escrow deposits were deposited primarily with U.S. banks and brokerage firms and amounted to approximately $2,933,000 at June 30, 2019. The Company does not believe there is significant risk of non-performance by these counterparties. Approximately 24% of the accounts receivable at June 30, 2019 was due from two customers who pay their receivables over usual credit periods (the Company collected $173,000 of the $193,000 due from these customers as of August 9, 2019). Credit risk with respect to the balance of trade receivables is generally diversified due to the number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair values of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are estimated to approximate their book values due to the short maturity of such investments.

Interest Rate Risk

In March 2019, OmniMetrix reinstated its Loan and Security Agreement providing OmniMetrix with access to accounts receivable formula-based financing of the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or $1 million. Debt incurred under this financing arrangement bears interest at the greater of 6% and prime (5.25% at August 9, 2019) plus 1.5% per year. In addition, OmniMetrix is to pay a monthly service charge of 0.75% of the average aggregate principal amount outstanding for the prior month, for a current effective rate of interest on advances of 15.8%. OmniMetrix also agreed to continue to maintain a minimum loan balance of $150,000 in its line-of-credit with the lender for a minimum of two years beginning March 1, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

As noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we employ a decentralized internal control methodology, coupled with management’s oversight, whereby each subsidiary is responsible for mitigating its risks to financial reporting by implementing and maintaining effective control policies and procedures and subsequently translating that respective risk mitigation up and through to the parent level and to our external financial statements. In addition, as our operating subsidiary is not large enough to effectively mitigate certain risks by segregating incompatible duties, management must employ compensating mechanisms throughout our company in a manner that is feasible within the constraints it operates.

The material weaknesses management identified were caused by an insufficient complement of resources at our OmniMetrix subsidiary and limited IT system capabilities, such that individual control policies and procedures at the subsidiary could not be implemented, maintained, or remediated when and where necessary. As a result, a majority of the significant process areas management identified for our OmniMetrix subsidiary had one or more material weaknesses present.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Authoritative Guidance

NOTE 2—RECENT AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE

Recently Issued

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which is effective for fiscal years beginning as of December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years with early adoption permitted. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize for all leases at the commencement date a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease measured on a discounted basis, and a right-to-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use or control the use of a specified asset for the lease term.

The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2019 and applied the transition guidance as of the date of adoption, under the current period adjustment method. As a result, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with its leases on January 1, 2019, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit, while the comparable prior periods in its consolidated financial statements will continue to be reported in accordance with Topic 840, including the disclosures of Topic 840.

The standard includes a number of optional practical expedients under the transaction guidance. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients which allows it to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company also made accounting policy elections by class of underlying asset to not apply the recognition requirements of the standard to leases with terms of 12 months or less and to not separate non-lease components from lease components. Consequently, each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component will be accounted for as a single lease component for lease classification, recognition, and measurement purposes. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company recognized a lease obligation liability of $44 recorded in other current liabilities, and a right-of-use asset of $44 recorded in property and equipment, net. An adjustment of $26 was made to reduce the right-of-use asset and deferred rent to reflect the impact of the retrospective approach on adopting this guidance. The lease obligation liability was $38 as of June 30, 2019 which includes the original lease as well as a new lease entered in to during the quarter.

The core principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle, which includes: (1) identifying contracts with customers, (2) identifying performance obligations within those contracts, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, which may include an estimate of variable consideration, and (5) recognizing revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied.

Sales of OmniMetrix monitoring systems include the sale of equipment (“HW”) and of monitoring services (“Monitoring”). Revenue (and related costs) associated with sale of equipment are recorded to deferred revenue (and deferred charges) upon shipment for PG and CP monitoring units. Revenue and related costs with respect to the sale of equipment are recognized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years (two years up to December 31, 2017). Revenues from the prepayment of monitoring fees (generally paid twelve months in advance) are initially recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt of payment from the customer and then amortized to revenue over the monitoring service period.

The Company pays its employees sales commissions for sales of HW and for first sales of monitoring services (not for renewals). In accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 606”), the Company capitalizes as a contract asset the sales commissions on these sales. Contract assets associated with HW are amortized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years (two years up to December 31, 2017). Contract assets associated with monitoring services are amortized over the expected monitoring life including renewals.

Investment in Omnimetrix

NOTE 3—INVESTMENT IN OMNIMETRIX

In 2015, one of the Company’s then-current directors (the “Investor”) acquired a 20% interest in the Company’s OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) through the purchase of $1,000 of OmniMetrix Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Holdings is the holder of 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC through which the Company operates its Power Generation and Cathodic Protection monitoring activities. The $1,000 investment by the Investor was recorded as an increase in non-controlling interests.

A dividend of 10% per annum accrued on the Preferred Stock. The dividend was payable on the first anniversary of the funding of the investment and quarterly thereafter for so long as the Preferred Stock was outstanding and had not been converted to Common Stock. Through December 31, 2016, a dividend payable of $115 was recorded with respect to the Preferred Stock. On December 31, 2016, the Investor agreed to treat the $115 of accrued dividends and all subsequent accrued and unpaid dividends as a loan to Holdings which bore interest at 8% per year. In December 2016, the Investor provided Holdings with an additional $50 loan under the same terms as the abovementioned accrued dividends.

On May 14, 2018, Holdings and the Investor entered into an agreement whereby effective May 1, 2018, the dividend on the Preferred Stock was reduced to 8%. In addition, all the amounts due to the Investor (accrued dividends, loan and accrued interest) and all future dividends that would accrue on the Preferred Stock through June 30, 2020, were to be paid by Holdings pursuant to an agreed-upon payment schedule which was scheduled to end on June 30, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $20 for the quarterly dividend. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company accrued $40 for quarterly dividends in the aggregate. At June 30, 2019, the obligation to the Investor was $323, representing unpaid accrued dividends.

On July 1, 2019, in accordance with terms established in 2015 at the time of the original investment, the Company repurchased from the Investor the shares of Preferred Stock then held by the Investor for a purchase price of $1,273 (which included the $323 of unpaid accrued dividends through June 30, 2019). The repurchase raised the Company’s ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Debt

NOTE 4—DEBT

In March 2019, OmniMetrix reinstated its Loan and Security Agreement providing OmniMetrix with access to accounts receivable formula-based financing of the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or $1,000. Debt incurred under this financing arrangement bears interest at the greater of 6% and prime (5.5% at June 30, 2019) plus 1.5% per year. In addition, OmniMetrix is to pay a monthly service charge of 0.75% of the average aggregate principal amount outstanding for the prior month, for an effective rate of interest on advances of 16% during the six months ended June 30, 2019. OmniMetrix also agreed to continue to maintain a minimum loan balance of $150 in its line-of-credit with the lender for a minimum of two years beginning March 1, 2019. From time to time, the balance outstanding may fall below $150 based on collections applied against the loan balance and the timing of loan draws. The monthly service charge and interest is calculated on the greater of the outstanding balance or $150. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $8 and $16, respectively. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $9 and $39, respectively.

OmniMetrix had an outstanding balance of $191 at June 30, 2019, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement and $312 was available to borrow.

NOTE 5—EQUITY

(a) Rights Offering

On June 28, 2019, the Company completed a rights offering, raising $2,206 in proceeds, net of $188 in expenses. Pursuant to the rights offering, Acorn securityholders and parties to a backstop agreement purchased 9,975,553 shares of Acorn common stock for $0.24 per share.

Under the terms of the rights offering, each right entitled securityholders as of June 3, 2019, the record date for the rights offering, to purchase 0.312 shares of Acorn common stock at a subscription price of $0.24 per whole share. No fractional shares were issued. The closing price of Acorn’s common stock on the record date of the rights offering was $0.2925. Distribution of the rights commenced on June 6, 2019 and were exercisable through June 24, 2019.

In connection with the rights offering, Acorn entered into a backstop agreement with certain of its directors and Leap Tide Capital Management LLC, the sole manager of which is Acorn’s President and CEO, pursuant to which they agreed to purchase from Acorn any and all unsubscribed shares of common stock in the rights offering, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the backstop agreement. The backstop purchasers did not receive any compensation or other consideration for entering into or consummating the backstop agreement.

On July 1, 2019, the Company utilized a portion of the rights offering proceeds to complete the planned reacquisition of a 19% interest in its OMX Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (“Holdings”) for $1,273. Holdings owns 100% of the membership interests of OmniMetrix, LLC. The purchase price was based on terms established in November 2015 at the time of the original investment. The purchase raised Acorn’s ownership in Holdings from 80% to 99%, with the remaining 1% owned by the CEO of OmniMetrix, LLC.

The balance of the rights offering net proceeds provides OmniMetrix with additional sales and marketing resources to facilitate expansion into additional geographic markets and new product applications, to support next-generation product development and for general working capital purposes.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company operates in two reportable operating segments, both of which are performed though the Company’s OmniMetrix subsidiary:

● The PG (Power Generation) segment provides wireless remote monitoring and control systems and services for critical assets as well as Internet of Things applications.

● The CP (Cathodic Protection) segment provides for remote monitoring of cathodic protection systems on gas pipelines for gas utilities and pipeline companies.

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units, offering different products and services and are managed separately as each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

The following tables represent segmented data for the six- and three-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018:

	PG			CP			Total
Six months ended June 30, 2019:

Segment gross profit		748			153			901
Depreciation and amortization		5			2			7
Segment income(loss) before income taxes	$	82		$	(49	)	$	33
Three months ended June 30, 2018:
Revenues from external customers	$	881		$	349		$	1,230
Segment gross profit		593			143			736
Depreciation and amortization		12			4			16
Segment loss before income taxes	$	(18	)	$	(92	)	$	(110	)

The gross profit of the PG segment during the six months ended June 30, 2019 included a $30 accrual, which unfavorably impacted gross margin by 1%. The accrual was for an estimated payment of approximately $30 related to a long-term purchase commitment of what is now discontinued technology that has been replaced with upgraded technology. This adjustment is recorded in cost of sales – other.

The Company does not currently break out total assets by reportable segment as there is a high level of shared utilization between the segments. Further, the Chief Decision Maker (CDM) does not review the assets by segment.
