NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Energy Focus, Inc. (“the Company”) engages in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of energy-efficient lighting systems and controls. We develop, market and sell high quality light-emitting diode (“LED”) lighting products and controls in the commercial and military maritime markets (“MMM”). Our mission is to enable our customers to run their facilities and offices with greater energy efficiency, productivity, and wellness through advanced LED retrofit solutions. Our goal is to be the LED lighting technology and market leader for the most demanding applications where performance, quality and health are considered paramount. We specialize in LED lighting retrofit by replacing fluorescent, high-intensity discharge (“HID”) lighting and other types of lamps in institutional buildings for primarily indoor lighting applications with our innovative, high-quality commercial and military tubular LED (“TLED”), as well as other LED products and controls.

At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on December 17, 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved a form of the certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and authorized the board of directors of the Company to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a ratio ranging from any whole number of at least 1-for-2 and up to 1-for-20, with the exact ratio within the foregoing range to be determined by the board of directors in its sole discretion.

On June 2, 2020, our board of directors determined to set the reverse stock split ratio at 1-for-5 (the “Split Ratio”). The Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 11, 2020, upon which the reverse stock split became effective immediately (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every five shares of common stock issued and outstanding automatically combined into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split. The $0.0001 par value per share of common stock and other terms of the common stock were not affected by the reverse stock split. The number of authorized shares of common stock under the Certificate of Incorporation remained unchanged at 50,000,000 shares. Proportional adjustments were made to the conversion and exercise prices of our outstanding warrants and stock options, and to the number of shares issued and issuable under our stock incentive plans in connection with the reverse stock split. The current financial statements as well as prior period’s financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. Preferred shares outstanding were not affected by the reverse stock split and as such, those shares have not been adjusted.
