NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Energy Focus, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or “the Company”) engages in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of energy-efficient lighting systems and controls and recently announced development of ultraviolet light disinfection (“ UVCD”) products. We develop, market and sell high quality light-emitting diode (“LED”) lighting products and UVCD 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 and UVCD solutions. Our goal is to be the LED and human-centric lighting (“HCL”) 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 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 and lighting control products.

On June 11, 2020, in accordance with previous stockholder approval, our Board of Directors effected a 1-for-5 (the “Split Ratio”) reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The reverse stock split became effective immediately upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), with the Delaware Secretary of State (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 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.
