Electric City Corp.
Notes to Financial Statements
Note
1 Basis of Presentation
The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all
adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis
which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company has experienced operating losses and negative cash flow from
operations since inception and currently has an accumulated deficit. These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Companys
ability to continue as a going concern is ultimately dependent on its ability to increase sales to
a level that will allow it to operate profitably and sustain positive operating cash flows.
Management is in the process of seeking to raise additional funds and is continuing to work to
improve profitability through efforts to expand of its business in both current and new markets.
However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional funding
in the future or in improving its operating results. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability
of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and the related footnotes
included in the Electric City Corp. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2005.
Note 2 Stock-based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R). This pronouncement requires companies
to measure the cost of employee service received in exchange for a shared based award (typically
stock options) based on the fair value of the award. The Company has elected to use the modified
prospective transition method for stock options granted prior to January 1, 2006, but for which
the vesting period is not complete. Under this transition method the Company accounts for such
awards on a prospective basis, with expense being recognized in its statement of operations
beginning in the first quarter of 2006 and continuing over the remaining requisite service period
based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123). Prior to 2006 the Company
accounted for employee stock options using the method of accounting prescribed by Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and the associated
interpretations using the intrinsic method. Generally, no expense was recognized related to its
stock options under this method because the stock options exercise price were set at the stocks
fair market value on the date the options were granted.
- 7 -
The following table illustrates the effect on the net loss and the net loss per share as if the
Company had recognized compensation expense for stock options in accordance with the fair value
based recognition provisions of SFAS 123 for periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R):

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Bill rates at the time of grant. The
dividend reflects the fact that the Company has never paid a dividend on its common stock and does
not expect to in the foreseeable future. The Company estimated the volatility of its common stock
at the date of grant based on the historical volatility of its stock. The expected term of the
options is based on historical exercise patterns, which the Company believes were representative of
future behavior.
For the three month period ended March 31, 2006, the Company recognized $144,610 of share based
compensation expense related to stock options. The Company recognizes compensation expense for
stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally equal
to the vesting period of the option. In calculating the compensation expense the Company has
assumed a 15% forfeiture rate based on historical information. The subject stock options expire ten
years after the date of grant.

The aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding options (the difference between the closing stock
price on the last trading day of the first quarter of 2006 of $.64 per share and the exercise
price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the
option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2006 was $10,000. This
amount will change based on changes in the fair market value of the Companys common stock.
As of March 31, 2006, $368,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is
expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years.
Note
3 Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive
evidence has been received that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery of the products and/or
services has occurred; (iii) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collectibility is
reasonably assured. In addition, the Company follows the provisions of the Securities and Exchange
Commissions Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which sets forth guidelines in
the timing of revenue recognition based upon factors such as passage of title, installation,
payments and customer acceptance. Any amounts
- 9 -
received prior to satisfying the Companys revenue recognition criteria is recorded as deferred
revenue in the accompanying balance sheet.
Revenues on long-term contracts are recorded under the percentage of completion, cost-to-cost
method of accounting. Any anticipated losses on contracts are charged to operations as soon as
they are determinable.
The timing of revenue recognition may differ from contract payment schedules resulting in revenues
that have been earned but not yet billed. These amounts are recorded on the balance sheet as Costs
and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Billings on contracts that
do not meet the Companys revenue recognition policy requirements for which it has been paid or has
a valid account receivable are recorded as deferred revenue.
The Companys MPG subsidiary often bundles contracts to provide monitoring services and web access
with the sale of its eMAC hardware. As a result, these sales are considered to be contracts with
multiple deliverables which at the time the hardware is delivered and installed includes
undelivered services essential to the functionality of the product. Accordingly, the Company
defers the revenue for the product and services and the cost of the equipment and installation and
recognizes them over the term of the monitoring contract. The monitoring contracts vary in length
from 1 month to 5 years.
The Company also has entered into agreements in which it has contracted with utilities to establish
a Virtual Negawatt Power Plan (VNPP). Under these contracts, the Company installs Energy Saver
units at participating host locations. The participating host locations receive the benefit of
reduced electric usage through the operation of the units. The Company is able to further reduce
electric demand requirements during periods of peak demand, providing nearly instantaneous control,
measurement and verification of load reduction. The utility companies will pay the Company for the
availability of this demand reduction and the Company will recognize revenue under these contracts
over the period for which the demand reduction is provided. During the three month period ended
March 31, 2006 the Company recognized revenue of $10,407 on these contracts. The cost of the
energy saver units currently at host locations under such VNPP programs is included in fixed assets
and is being depreciated over the term these units will be used under the VNPP program contract.
Note
4 Discontinued Operations
On April 3, 2006, the Company completed a Stock Purchase Agreement with Eugene Borucki and Denis
Enberg (the Purchasers) in which it agreed to sell, effective as of March 31, 2006, all of the
outstanding capital stock of Great Lakes Controlled Energy Corporation to the Purchasers for
212,904 shares of Electric City common stock (the Transaction). The Stock Purchase Agreement
provided that in the event that Great Lakes Adjusted Net Book Value (defined below), was less than
$20,000, Electric City would make a cash payment to the Purchasers equal to the difference between
the Adjusted Net Book Value and $20,000, and in the event that Great Lakes Adjusted Net Book Value
exceeded $20,000 then the Purchasers would make a cash payment to Electric City equal to the amount
by which the Adjusted Net Book Value exceeded $20,000. Adjusted Net Book Value was defined as net
assets (excluding goodwill) less net liabilities (excluding inter-company debt), as such items were
shown on the final closing date balance sheet. During May 2006, the Company and the Purchasers
completed the calculation of the Adjusted Net Book Value and determined that the Company owed the
Purchasers $3,139.
The 212,904 shares of Electric City common stock received from the Purchasers have been retired and
become authorized but un-issued shares. For accounting purposes, the Company valued theses shares
at $0.91 each, which is the average closing market price of the common stock for the five days
prior to entering into the letter of intent to sell Great Lakes. The Company did not incur a gain
or loss on the sale of Great Lakes.

5 Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes loss per share under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
128 Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of two amounts: basic and diluted loss per
common share. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing loss available to common
stockholders by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding, and includes all common
stock issued. Diluted earnings would include all common stock equivalents. The Company has not
included the outstanding options, warrants or shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred
stock and convertible debt as common stock equivalents in the computation of diluted loss per share
for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 because the effect would be antidilutive.
- 11 -
The following table sets forth the weighted average shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding
options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock and convertible debt that are not included
in the basic and diluted loss per share available to common stockholders because to do so would be
antidilutive:

As discussed in Note 4 to the Companys annual report for the year ended December 31, 2005,
2,492,229 shares of common stock are being held in escrow for the benefit of the selling
shareholders of Maximum Performance Group (MPG) to be released over the two year period following
the purchase of MPG (April 30, 2005) if it achieves certain revenue targets during the period.
Any shares not issued to the selling shareholders will be returned to the Company at the end of the
two year period. As of March 31, 2006, no shares had been released from escrow. These escrow
shares have not been included in the calculation of the weighted average common shares outstanding
since their release from escrow is contingent on achieving the revenue targets.

Note 6 Warranty Obligations
The Company warrants to the purchasers of its EnergySaver line of products that the product will be
free of defects in material and workmanship for one year from the date of installation. It records
the estimated cost that may be incurred under its warranties at the time revenue is recognized
based upon the relationship between historical and anticipated warranty costs and sales volumes.
The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the
amounts as necessary. While the Company believes that its estimated warranty liability is adequate
and that the judgment applied is appropriate, the estimated liability for warranties could differ
materially from actual future warranty costs. Changes in the Companys warranty liability are as
follows:

8 Line of Credit
On February 28, 2005, the Company and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. entered into an amendment to the
revolving credit facility which among other things permitted the Company to borrow an amount in
excess of the amount supported by the borrowing base (an Overadvance), up to the $2 million limit
of the facility, and reduced the fixed conversion price on the revolving credit line to $1.05 per
share. The Company borrowed the full $2 million on February 28, 2005. The Company was permitted
to remain in the Overadvance position until January 1, 2006 (the Overadvance Period). The
amended revolving loan agreement provided that the Overadvance Period would be extended on a month
to month basis if the average closing price of the Companys stock for the five last trading days
of the prior month was greater than or equal to $1.16. The Overadvance Period was not extended on
January 1, 2006, and during the first quarter of 2006, the Company reduced the outstanding balance
on the revolver to $1,128,248 through the payment of $871,752 in cash. The Company may reborrow
the amount repaid if it has sufficient borrowing base to support the borrowings. During April 2006
the Company paid the revolver down to $807,522 as a result of a further decline in its borrowing
base. If at any time after the date the shares
- 13 -
underlying the revolving credit facility are registered and the average closing price of the
Companys Common Stock for an eleven day period exceeds $1.21 per share (115% of the fixed
conversion price), Laurus will be required to convert to common stock the lesser of the outstanding
balance of the revolving credit line or 25% of the average aggregate dollar weighted trading volume
of the Companys Common Stock for the eleven days prior to the conversion (a Mandatory
Conversion). Only one Mandatory Conversion can be effected in any 22 day period. The revolving
line of credit will expire on September 1, 2006. All stock conversion prices and exercise prices
are subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends or similar events.

10 Business Segment Information
Historically the Company had organized and managed its business in two distinct segments: the
Energy Technology segment, and the Building Control and Automation segment. In classifying its
operational entities into a particular segment, the Company segregated its businesses with similar
economic characteristics, products and services, production processes, customers, and methods of
distribution into distinct operating groups.
The Energy Technology segment designs, manufactures and markets energy saving technologies,
primarily to commercial and industrial customers. The principal products produced and marketed by
this segment are the EnergySaver, the Global Commander, the eMAC line of HVAC and lighting
controllers, and negative power systems under the trade name Virtual Negawatt Power Plan or
VNPP. Operations of Electric City Corp. and Maximum Performance Group, Inc. are included in this
segment. Electric City is headquartered, and most of its operations are located, in Elk Grove
Village, Illinois. Maximum Performance Group is headquartered in New York, New York, and has an
office in San Diego, California where most of its technical and engineering operations are located.
The Building Control and Automation segment was comprised of the Great Lakes Controlled Energy
subsidiary, which provided integration of building and environmental control systems for commercial
and industrial customers. Great Lakes Controlled Energy is headquartered in, and operates out of,
its own facility located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. The Company sold Great Lakes effective
March 31, 2006.
With the sale of Great Lakes the Company considers all of its remaining operations to be in one
segment: the Energy Technology Segment.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion regarding the Company along with the Companys financial
statements and related notes included in this quarterly report. This quarterly report, including
the following discussion, contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks,
uncertainties and assumptions. The Companys actual results, performance and achievements in 2006
and beyond may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking
statements. See Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.
Overview
We are a developer, manufacturer and integrator of energy savings technologies and an independent
developer of scalable, negative power systems. We currently market the EnergySaver, the
GlobalCommander and eMAC energy conservation technologies, as well as our independent development
of scalable, negative power systems under the trade name Virtual Negawatt Power Plan or VNPP.
Electric City is based in Elk Grove Village, Illinois and is traded on The American Stock Exchange
under the symbol ELC. Our premier energy saving product is the EnergySaver system, which reduces
energy consumed by lighting, typically by 20% to 30%, with minimal reduction in lighting levels.
This technology has applications in commercial buildings, factories and office structures, as well
as street lighting and parking lot lighting. Combining the technologies of the EnergySaver and
GlobalCommander led to the development of our Virtual Negawatt Power Plan concept, which is
essentially a negative power system which we market primarily to utilities as a demand response
system. We believe that the Electric City VNPP is the first demand response system to provide this
level of control to a utility without requiring active customer participation and without impacting
a customers operations or ability to do business. In May 2005, we acquired Maximum Performance
Group, Inc. (MPG), a technology based provider of energy and asset management products and
services. MPG manufactures and markets its eMAC line of controllers for HVAC and lighting
applications that provide intelligent control and continuous monitoring of HVAC and lighting
equipment via wireless technology to reduce energy usage and improve system reliability.
Results of Operations
Our revenues reflect the sale of our products and services, net of allowances for returns and other
adjustments. Revenues of Electric City and its subsidiary are generated from the sale of products
and services, the vast majority of which are sold in the U.S.
Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of materials and manufacturing labor. Also included in
our cost of goods sold are freight, charges from third parties for installation of our products,
costs of operating our manufacturing facility, charges for potential future warranty claims, and
royalty costs related to EnergySaver sales.
Sales and gross profits depend, in part, on the volume and mix of products sold during any given
period. Generally, products that we manufacture have a higher gross profit margin than products
that we purchase and resell.
A portion of our operating expense is relatively fixed, such as the cost of our facilities.
Accordingly, an increase in the volume of sales will generally result in an increase to our gross
margins since these fixed expenses do not increase proportionately with sales. We have not
consistently utilized the full manufacturing capacity of our facility and, therefore, believe that
the fixed nature of some of our expenses would contribute to an increase in our gross margin in
future periods if sales volumes increase. In particular we believe that our facility in Elk Grove
Village can support a sales level of EnergySaver products of approximately $15 million per year
without a significant further investment in fixed assets.
- 16 -
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses include the following components:
|
|
|
direct labor and commission costs related to our employee sales force; |
|
|
|
|
expenses related to our non-manufacturing management, supervisory and staff salaries and
employee benefits; |
|
|
|
|
commission costs related to our independent sales representatives and our distributors; |
|
|
|
|
costs related to insurance, travel and customer entertainment and office supplies costs
and the cost of non-manufacturing utilities; |
|
|
|
|
costs related to marketing and advertising our products; |
|
|
|
|
costs of outside professionals such as lawyers, accountants, and investor relations
professionals; |
|
|
|
|
research and development expenses; |
|
|
|
|
costs related to administrative functions that serve to support the existing businesses
of the Company, as well as to provide the infrastructure for future growth. |
Interest expense includes the costs and expenses associated with working capital indebtedness, the
mortgage on our headquarters building, our convertible term loans, a note payable, capitalized
leases and various auto loans, all as reflected on our current and prior financial statements.
Also included in interest expense is amortization of the debt discount which includes the fair
value of the warrants issued to Laurus Master Fund Ltd. (Laurus), and the value of beneficial
conversion feature attributed to the convertible term loans. In addition, interest expense
includes amortization of deferred financing costs related to the credit facility with Laurus.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2005.
Our total revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 increased $895,632 or 357% to
$1,146,345 as compared to $250,713 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005. Revenue of
Maximum Performance Group, which was acquired effective April 30, 2005 was responsible for
approximately $640,000, or 71% of the increase. The balance of the increase in revenue was the
result of an increase in EnergySaver sales. EnergySaver units sales increased from two units
during the first quarter of 2005 to 38 units during the first quarter of 2006. A significant
portion of the unit sales during the first quarter of 2006 were made to one customer. The current
contract with this customer is expected to be fulfilled during the second quarter of 2006. Most of
the revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2005 was derived from a short term utility
consulting engagement which ended in May 2005.
Cost of sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 increased $803,431 or 765% to
$908,402 from $104,971 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. The increase in cost of
sales is due to the addition of MPG and the increase in EnergySaver sales. Gross profit for the
first quarter of 2006 increased $92,201 to $237,943 from $145,742 in the first quarter of 2005, but
the gross margin declined from 58% in 2005 to 21% in 2006. The gross margin in 2005 benefited from
the one time utility consulting assignment. The 2006 gross margin is in the range of what we would
expect to earn in future periods with similar levels of revenue. We hope that if the Company is
able to increase revenue in future periods its gross margin will increase as certain fixed costs
are spread over additional sales volume.
SG&A for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 increased $935,047, or 94% to $1,925,915 from
$990,868 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. The addition of MPG is responsible for
approximately $735,000, or 79% of the increase. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) at Electric City was
responsible for approximately $95,000 of the increase, while the balance of the increase was
primarily the result of increases in sales commissions, taxes, and professional services. We
expect our SG&A expense to increase slightly over the balance of the year as we add additional
sales and operations people in an attempt to increase our sales of our Energy Technology products.
- 17 -
Other expense for the three-month period ending March 31, 2006 increased $179,377, to $247,208 from
$67,831 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. Amortization of the deferred issuance
costs and the debt discount related to the Laurus revolver and convertible term loans, which are
included in interest expense, increased $80,131 to $121,603 during the first quarter of 2006 from
$41,472 during the first quarter of 2005. The increase in amortization is due to the new $5 million
term loan that we entered into in November 2005. The deferred issuance costs and debt discount are
being amortized using the effective interest method, thus will decline as the outstanding balance
on the term loans are repaid or converted. Other interest expense increased $112,973 primarily as
a result of borrowings under the new term loan, higher average balances on the revolver and an
increase in the prime rate. Interest income of $20,711 for the first quarter of 2006 was $13,727
higher than the $6,984 earned during the first quarter of 2005. The increase in interest income
was due to higher average invested cash balances and increases in interest rates earned on the
invested cash balances.
Dividend expense increased $280,490 to $615,290 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, as compared
to $334,800 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. We accrued dividends on our Series E Convertible
Preferred Stock of $348,900 and $334,800 during the first quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. These dividends were satisfied through the issuance of additional shares of Series E
Convertible Preferred Stock. During the first quarter of 2006 we were required to reduce the
exercise price on warrants to purchase 4,064,830 shares of our common stock held by a preferred
stock holder. The exercise price on the warrants was reduced to $0.62 per share from an average
exercise price of $0.92 per share. This was because we issued stock options to our new CEO with an
exercise price of $0.62 per share (which was the market price of our common stock on the date the
options were issued). The warrant exercise price automatically adjusted to the same price. We
compared the value of the warrants, as determined through the use of a modified Black-Sholes option
pricing model, with the old exercise price to the value of the warrants with the reduced exercise
price and determined that the reduction in the exercise price had increased the value of the
warrants by $266,390. Since these warrants were issued as part of a security offering the increase
in value was considered to be a deemed dividend to the security holders. We recorded the deemed
dividend by offsetting charges and credits to additional paid-in capital, without any effect on
total stockholders equity.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2005 we incurred a net loss of $6.9 million and
used $7.0 million of cash for operating activities. Primarily as a result of our continuing losses
and lack of liquidity our independent registered public accounting firm modified their opinion on
our December 31, 2005 Consolidated Financial Statement to contain a paragraph wherein they
expressed a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have taken
steps to improve our current liquidity and provide the growth capital necessary to fund our plan
for 2006 and for future growth. Our efforts to raise additional capital are discussed below.
As of March 31, 2006 we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,898,775 compared to $4,229,150 on
December 31, 2005. Our debt obligations as of March 31, 2006 consisted of a convertible secured
revolving loan of $1,128,248, a mortgage of $553,000 on our facility in Elk Grove Village Illinois,
two convertible secured term notes totaling $5,186,790, notes payable to a former shareholder of
MPG of $150,000, vehicle loans of $11,120 and capitalized leases of $3,230.
Our principal cash requirements are for operating expenses, including employee costs, the costs
related to research and development, advertising costs, the cost of outside services including
those providing accounting, legal, engineering and consulting services, rent, the funding of
inventory and accounts receivable, and capital expenditures and the costs of servicing our
outstanding debt. We have financed our operations since inception through the private placement of
our common stock, preferred stock and various secured and unsecured loans.

Three months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Three months Ended March 31, 2005.
Net cash decreased $2,330,375 during the first three months of 2006 as compared to increasing
$949,888 during the same period in 2005.
Operating Activities
Cash consumed by operating activities increased $394,311 or 47% to $1,242,280 during the first
three months of 2006 as compared to consuming $847,969 during the same period in 2005. Cash used
to fund the net loss before changes in working capital, increased $960,623 or 195%, to $1,452,105
during the first three months of 2006 from $491,482 during the same period in 2005. Approximately
60% of this increase is due to the increased SG&A associated with the addition of Maximum
Performance Group, which was acquired effective April 30, 2005. Also contributing to the increase
was the $259,125 decline in profitability of the Building Control and Automation segment. The
balance of the increase in the cash used to fund the net loss before changes in working capital was
due to an increase in interest expense and the completion of a one time consulting contract the
Company worked on during the first five months of 2005.
Changes in working capital generated cash of $209,825 during the first three months of 2006 as
compared to consuming cash of $356,487 during the first three months of 2005. Most of the
improvement was due to increased eMAC sales during the quarter.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities decreased $29,019 to $93,290 during the three-month period ending
March 31, 2006, from $122,309 for the same period in 2005. Effective March 31, 2006 we sold all of
the stock of Great Lakes Controlled Energy Corporation to the former owners of the company. Great
Lakes cash balances of $83,586 were transferred with the sale of the company. Purchases of
property and equipment declined $112,605 largely due to reduced investment in VNPP assets.
- 19 -
Financing Activities
Financing activities consumed cash of $994,805 during the first quarter of 2006 as compared to
generating $1,920,166 during the first quarter of 2005. During January 2006, we were required to
pay down $871,752 on our revolving line of credit to bring it into compliance with our borrowing
base. We also made scheduled principal payments of $123,053 on our convertible term loan,
mortgage, auto loans and capitalized leases during the quarter. During 2005 we generated $2
million in cash through borrowing on our line of credit, which was partially offset by scheduled
principal payments on our term loan, mortgage and auto loan of $79,834.
LIQUIDITY
Our primary sources of liquidity are our available cash reserves. As of March 31, 2006 our cash
balance was $1,898,775.
Cash used in operating activities declined for the third consecutive quarter and we expect
continued improvements for the balance of 2006 due to an anticipated reduction in our net loss. We
are continuing to work to reduce the cash consumed in operating activities during 2006 to a level
of less than $3 million, as compared to $7.0 million consumed during 2005. Despite the expected
reduction in our cash use we will need to raise additional capital within the next three to six
months to continue to fund our operations until our cash flow improves to the point that we can
support ourselves with internally generated cash flow. We have begun the process of seeking
additional capital, which will most likely involve the sale of additional shares of our common
stock.
Our ability to continue the development, manufacturing and expansion of sales of our products,
including the EnergySaver, GlobalCommander and eMAC, will require the continued commitment of
significant funds. The actual timing and amount of our future funding requirements will depend on
many factors, including the amount and timing of future revenues, the level and amount of product
marketing and sales efforts, the magnitude of research and development, and our ability to improve
margins on our products.
During the last four fiscal years we have raised net proceeds of approximately $34 million through
the issuance of shares of our common and preferred stock, which has allowed us to continue to
execute our business plan. Most of these funds have been consumed by operating activities, either
to fund our losses or for working capital requirements. As of March 31, 2006 our cash balance was
$1,898,775. In an attempt to move the Company to a position where it can start to generate
positive cash flow our management has set the following key objectives for 2006:
|
|
|
Focus on increasing the commercial sales of our products. Key to this strategy
is the integration of the Electric City and MPG sales forces with the intent that the
integrated sales force will sell all of our products to current, prior and future
customers. We believe that this change will increase our base of commercial opportunities
and allow us to offer a broader array of energy solutions to our customers thereby
increasing the value of each customer relationship. This reorganization of our sales
staffs will involve the cross training of all of our sales people in the sale of the
EnergySaver, eMAC and other energy conservation products and services. We also plan to
hire additional sales people in an attempt to expand our commercial sales efforts. |
|
|
|
|
Expand and improve the product line through internal development or acquisition.
An expanded product line would allow us to offer additional solutions to our customers,
thereby increasing the value of each customer relationship. |
|
|
|
|
Aggressively manage our costs in order to conserve cash. We made some progress
in reducing our costs during the last several years, but we plan to focus on eliminating
redundant operations |
- 20 -
|
|
|
and leveraging the synergies available as a result of the acquisition of MPG to further
reduce our costs. |
|
|
|
|
Sell our Building Automation Controls business. This sale, which was completed
effective March 31, 2006 will allow us to focus exclusively on the sale of our Energy
Technology products and services and will reduce the cash consumed in future periods. |
|
|
|
|
Secure additional capital to continue to fund operations until the business turns
cash flow positive. Our ability to raise additional capital in the future will depend
a great deal on our ability to make progress toward the goals outline above. |
We believe that if we are successful in achieving these priorities we should have sufficient
liquidity to allow us to operate until our operations turn cash flow positive. If we are not able
to achieve some or all of these priorities we may begin to experience a liquidity shortage sometime
in mid-2006 which could force us to scale back our growth plans, or, in the worst case, cease
operations.
If we raise additional capital in future periods (which may require stockholder approval), our
existing stockholders will likely experience dilution of their present equity ownership position
and voting rights, depending upon the number of shares issued and the terms and conditions of the
issuance. Any new equity securities will likely have rights, preferences or privileges senior to
those of our common stock.
In late April 2006, we received a notice from the American Stock Exchange informing us that after a
review of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K the Exchange has determined that we are not in
compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide. Section 1003(a)(iii) requires a listed
company to maintain shareholder equity of at least $6 million if it has sustained losses from
continuing operations and/or new losses in its most recent five fiscal years. The Exchanges
notice requires us to submit a plan by May 22, 2006 advising the Exchange of action we have taken
or will take that will bring the Company into compliance with the listing standards within eighteen
months. The plan is required to include specific milestones, quarterly financial projections, and
details related to any strategic initiatives we plan to complete. If we submit such a plan, the
Exchanges Listings Qualifications Department will evaluate the plan and make a determination as to
whether we have made a reasonable demonstration of our ability to regain compliance with the
continued listing standards within specified timeframes, in which case the plan will be accepted.
If the plan is accepted, we may be able to continue listing during the plan period, during which
time we will be subject to periodic review to determine whether we are making progress consistent
with the plan. We are in process of considering what action to take and preparing a response to the
Exchanges notice. If we fail to submit a plan within the required time, or if the plan is not
accepted, we will be subject to delisting procedures. The fact that we are facing possible
delisting may make it more difficult and/or expensive for us to raise capital.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The only significant exposure the Company has to market risk is the risk of changes in market
interest rates. The interest rates on the Companys debt facilities are variable and change with
changes in the prime rate. The interest rates on the Companys convertible term loans floats at
between 1.75% and 2.00% over the prime rate, subject to floors of between 6.0% and 6.75%. The
interest rate on our revolving loan is equal to prime plus 1.75%. The interest rate on the
Companys mortgage is equal to the prime rate plus 1/2%. As of March 31, 2006, the prime rate was
7.75%. If the prime rate were to increase 1 percentage point, the aggregate annual interest cost
on the mortgage, term loans and revolving loan would increase by approximately $69,000.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
In January 2006, Gullo USA, Inc., a former distributor, initiated arbitration proceedings against
the Company with the American Arbitration Association in Chicago, to compel us to honor an alleged
agreement to pay it commissions on any sales into five states awarded to it under a prior
distributor agreement. We dispute the validity of the agreement, but have accrued potential
commissions of approximately $35,000 which would be payable to Gullo through March 31, 2006 should
the arbitrator rule against us. Additional commissions could be due Gullo in future periods for
sales into the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Louisiana, and Virginia if the arbitrator
rules in Gullos favor. We have begun discussions with Gullo to try to resolve the matter prior to
the commencement of the arbitration hearings.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
If our common stock is delisted from the American Stock Exchange, the trading market for your stock
may be reduced making it more difficult for you to sell your stock and making it more difficult for
the Company to raise capital.
In late April 2006, we received a notice from the American Stock Exchange informing us that after a
review of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K the Exchange has determined that we are not in
compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide. Section 1003(a)(iii) requires a listed
company to maintain shareholder equity of at least $6 million if it has sustained losses from
continuing operations and/or new losses in its most recent five fiscal years. The Exchanges
notice provides for us to submit a plan by May 22, 2006 advising the Exchange of action we have
taken or will take that will bring the Company into compliance with the listing standards within
eighteen months. The plan is required to include specific milestones, quarterly financial
projections, and details related to any strategic initiatives we plan to complete. If we submit
such a plan, the Exchanges Listings Qualifications Department will evaluate the plan and make a
determination as to whether we have made a reasonable demonstration of our ability to regain
compliance with the continued listing standards within specified timeframes, in which case the plan
will be accepted. If the plan is accepted, we may be able to continue listing during the plan
period, during which time we will be subject to periodic review to determine whether we are making
progress consistent with the plan. We are in process of considering what action to take and
preparing a response to the Exchanges notice. If we fail to submit a plan within the required
time, or if a submitted plan is not accepted, we will be subject to delisting procedures.
If we are delisted from the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) it would be our intent to move to the
Over The Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB). The trading market for our common stock on the OTCBB may
not be as active as it would be on the American Stock Exchange. This may make it more difficult
for you to sell your shares and may increase the volatility of our stock price. In addition, the
fact that we are facing possible delisting, or if we are delisted from the AMEX and move to the
OCTBB, it may make it more difficult and/or expensive for us to raise capital.
