NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1.
Description of the Company and its Business

Enova Systems, Inc., (“Enova”, “We” or “the Company”), a California corporation, was incorporated in July 1976, and trades on the OTCQB under the trading symbol “ENVS” and on the London Stock Exchange under the symbol “ENV” or “ENVS”.  The Company is a globally recognized leader as a supplier of efficient, environmentally-friendly digital power components and systems products, in conjunction with associated engineering services. The Company’s core competencies are focused on the commercialization of power management and conversion systems for mobile and stationary applications.

2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation — Interim Financial Statements

The financial information as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair statement of its financial position at such dates and the operating results and cash flows for those periods. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, and certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules or regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions are adequate, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended.

Delisting from the NYSE MKT
 
On October 24, 2012, the Company received notification from the NYSE MKT (the "Exchange") stating that, because the Company was not in compliance with certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards, the Exchange intended to strike the common stock of the Company from the Exchange by filing a delisting application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company previously disclosed in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2012, May 29, 2012, July 6, 2012, and October 24, 2012 the provisions of the Exchange's continued listing standards with which the Company was not in compliance. The Company requested a formal appeal of the Exchange's delisting determination, which hearing before the Committee on Securities has been scheduled on December 19, 2012.
 
Effective October 31, 2012, trading of the Company’s common shares ceased on the Exchange and, on the same date, trading of the Company’s shares commenced on the OTCQB Marketplace under the trading symbol "ENVS". The OTCQB is a market tier operated by the OTC Market Group Inc. for over-the-counter traded companies. The Company anticipates that the delisting will be completed once the Exchange files a Form 25-NSE Notification of Delisting with the SEC. The delisting and transition to the OTCQB does not change the Company's obligations to file periodic and other reports with the SEC under applicable federal securities laws.
 
The admission of the Company’s common stock for trading on London Stock Exchange's AIM market is unaffected by the NYSE MKT's determination.

Liquidity and Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, historically the Company has experienced significant recurring net losses and operating cash flow deficits. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on many factors, including among others, its ability to raise additional funding, and its ability to successfully restructure operations to lower manufacturing costs and reduce operating expenses.
 
         To date, the Company has incurred recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations. At September 30, 2012, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $155.9 million, cash and cash equivalents of $108,000 and working capital of approximately $2.8 million and shareholders’ equity of approximately $0.8 million. Until the Company can generate significant cash from its operations, the Company expects to continue to fund its operations with existing cash resources, proceeds from one or more private placement agreements, as well as potentially through debt financing or the sale of equity securities. However, the Company may not be successful in obtaining additional funding. In addition, the Company cannot be sure that its existing cash and investment resources will be adequate or that additional financing will be available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or its stockholders.
 
        Our ongoing operations will require us to make necessary investments in human and production resources, regulatory compliance, as well as sales and marketing efforts. We do not currently have adequate internal liquidity to meet these objectives in the long term. To do so, we will need to continue to look for partnering opportunities and other external sources of liquidity, including the public and private financial markets and strategic partners. Having insufficient funds may require the Company to delay or potentially eliminate some or all of its development programs, relinquish some or even all rights to product candidates at an earlier stage of development or negotiate less favorable terms than it would otherwise choose.  Failure to obtain adequate financing also may adversely affect the launch of the Company’s product candidates or its ability to continue in business. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, substantial dilution to existing stockholders would likely result. If the Company raises additional funds by incurring debt financing, the terms of the debt may involve significant cash payment obligations, as well as covenants and specific financial ratios that may restrict its ability to operate its business.

As previously reported, 80% of our workforce terminated their employment with the Company in June 2012. We continue to evaluate strategic opportunities to leverage our resources and assist with continuing operations.

We have accessed the capital markets to obtain additional operating funds.  In December 2011, we raised approximately $1,245,000, net of financing costs of $442,500, through an equity issuance to certain accredited investors, which was disclosed in our Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2012.  In addition, as summarized in Note 8-Stockholders’ Equity, to our financial statements contained in this Form 10-Q we entered into two Purchase Agreements (the facility) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund in April 2012 to issue up $10,000,000 in shares of our common stock and received proceeds of $132,000, net of financing costs of $152,000, from the initial purchase of shares of Common Stock from Lincoln Park in the second quarter of 2012. Access to funding under the facility is dependent upon our share price maintaining a floor price of at least $0.15 per share.  Our share price decreased below that threshold in May 2012 and, until our share price increases above the threshold level, we cannot raise additional funds from the facility.
  
The Company continues to pursue other options to raise additional capital to fund its operations; however, there can be no assurance that we can successfully raise additional funds through the capital markets.

    As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $0.1 million in cash and cash equivalents currently and anticipates that its existing cash and anticipated receivables collections will be sufficient to meet its projected operating requirements through mid-December 2012 to continue operations and market trading.  
      
Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to US GAAP. There have been no significant changes in the Company's significant accounting policies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to what was previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 
Revenue Recognition

The Company manufactures proprietary products and other products based on design specifications provided by its customers. The Company recognizes revenue only when all of the following criteria have been met:

Persuasive Evidence of an Arrangement — The Company documents all terms of an arrangement in a written contract signed by the customer prior to recognizing revenue.

Delivery Has Occurred or Services Have Been Rendered — The Company performs all services or delivers all products prior to recognizing revenue. Professional consulting and engineering services are considered to be performed when the services are complete. Equipment is considered delivered upon delivery to a customer’s designated location. In certain instances, the customer elects to take title upon shipment.

The Fee for the Arrangement is Fixed or Determinable — Prior to recognizing revenue, a customer’s fee is either fixed or determinable under the terms of the written contract. Fees for professional consulting services, engineering services and equipment sales are fixed under the terms of the written contract. The customer’s fee is negotiated at the outset of the arrangement and is not subject to refund or adjustment during the initial term of the arrangement.

Collectability is Reasonably Assured — The Company determines that collectability is reasonably assured prior to recognizing revenue. Collectability is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis based on criteria outlined by management. New customers are subject to a credit review process which evaluates the customer’s financial position and ultimately its ability to pay. The Company does not enter into arrangements unless collectability is reasonably assured at the outset. Existing customers are subject to ongoing credit evaluations based on payment history and other factors. If it is determined during the arrangement that collectability is not reasonably assured, revenue is recognized on a cash basis. Amounts received upfront for engineering or development fees under multiple-element arrangements are deferred and recognized over the period of committed services or performance, if such arrangements require the Company to provide on-going services or performance. All amounts received under collaborative research agreements or research and development contracts are nonrefundable, regardless of the success of the underlying research.

The Company recognizes revenue from milestone payments over the remaining minimum period of performance obligations.

The Company also recognizes engineering and construction contract revenues using the percentage-of-completion method, based primarily on contract costs incurred to date compared with total estimated contract costs. Customer-furnished materials, labor, and equipment, and in certain cases subcontractor materials, labor, and equipment, are included in revenues and cost of revenues when management believes that the company is responsible for the ultimate acceptability of the project. Contracts are segmented between types of services, such as engineering and construction, and accordingly, revenue and gross margin related to each activity is recognized as those separate services are rendered.

Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Claims against customers are recognized as revenue upon settlement. Revenues recognized in excess of amounts received are classified as current assets. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenues recognized to date are classified as current liabilities on contracts.
 
Changes in project performance and conditions, estimated profitability, and final contract settlements may result in future revisions to engineering and development contract costs and revenue.

These accounting policies were applied consistently for all periods presented. Our operating results would be affected if other alternatives were used. Information about the impact on our operating results is included in the footnotes to our financial statements.

Several other factors related to the Company may have a significant impact on our operating results from year to year. For example, the accounting rules governing the timing of revenue recognition related to product contracts are complex and it can be difficult to estimate when we will recognize revenue generated by a given transaction. Factors such as acceptance of services provided, payment terms, creditworthiness of the customer, and timing of delivery or acceptance of our products often cause revenues related to sales generated in one period to be deferred and recognized in later periods. For arrangements in which services revenue is deferred, related direct and incremental costs may also be deferred.

 
-6-

 
Deferred Revenues

The Company recognizes revenues as earned. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as a liability under deferred revenues. The Company has entered into several production and development contracts with customers. The Company has evaluated these contracts, ascertained the specific revenue generating activities of each contract, and established the units of accounting for each activity. Revenue on these units of accounting is not recognized until a) there is persuasive evidence of the existence of a contract, b) the service has been rendered and delivery has occurred, c) there is a fixed and determinable price, and d) collectability is reasonable assured.

Warranty Costs

The Company provides product warranties for specific product lines and accrues for estimated future warranty costs in the period in which revenue is recognized. Our products are generally warranted to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 12 to 24 months from the date of installation, subject to standard limitations for equipment that has been altered by other than Enova Systems personnel and equipment which has been subject to negligent use. Warranty provisions are based on past experience of product returns, number of units repaired and our historical warranty incidence over the past twenty-four month period. The warranty liability is evaluated on an ongoing basis for adequacy and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known.

Stock Based Compensation

We measure the compensation cost for stock-based awards classified as equity at their fair value on the date of grant and recognize compensation expense over the service period for awards expected to vest, net of estimated forfeitures.

See Note 9 Stock Options for further information on stock-based compensation expense.

Stockholders’ Equity

On April 23, 2012, the Company entered into a $6,600,000 purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund pursuant to which the Company has the right to sell to Lincoln Park up to $6,600,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, and on April 24, 2012, the Company entered into another purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund pursuant to which the Company has the right to sell to Lincoln Park up to $3,400,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations. We received proceeds of $132,000, net of financing costs of $152,000, under the $3,400,000 Purchase Agreement and issued a total of 1,754,974 shares of common stock in the second quarter of 2012. As consideration for its commitment to purchase common stock under the $3,400,000 Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Lincoln Park 281,030 shares of common stock.  At September 30, 2012, the Company is not able to sell shares under this agreement due to the Company's quoted market share price.
 
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock to directors or employees as compensation. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 10,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock were converted into 222 shares of its common stock. There were no conversions of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for the comparable period in 2012.

Stock Options

Stock Option Program Description

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had two equity compensation plans, the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the “1996 Plan”) and the 2006 equity compensation plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 1996 Plan has expired for the purposes of issuing new grants. However, the 1996 Plan will continue to govern awards previously granted under that plan. The 2006 Plan has been approved by the Company’s shareholders. Equity compensation grants are designed to reward employees and executives for their long term contributions to the Company and to provide incentives for them to remain with the Company. The number and frequency of equity compensation grants are based on competitive practices, operating results of the company, and government regulations.

 The 2006 Plan has a total of 3,000,000 shares reserved for issuance, of which 2,091,000 shares were available for grant as of September 30, 2012. All stock options have terms of between three and ten years and generally vest and become fully exercisable from one to three years from the date of grant or vest according to the price performance of our shares.

As of September 30, 2012, the total compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized is $21,000. The weighted average period over which the future compensation cost is expected to be recognized is 12 months.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted revised guidance related to the presentation of comprehensive income that increases comparability between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income (OCI) and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2012, which had no impact on the Company’s financial position, operations, or cash flows.  The Company currently does not have any components of other comprehensive income or loss.
 
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This new guidance amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to include increased disclosures regarding valuation inputs and investment categorization. The adoption of this new accounting guidance in 2012 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operations or cash flows.

  Subsequent Events
 
On October 24, 2012, the Company received notification from the NYSE MKT (the "Exchange") stating that, because the Company was not in compliance with certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards, the Exchange intended to strike the common stock of the Company from the Exchange by filing a delisting application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company previously disclosed in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2012, May 29, 2012, July 6, 2012, and October 24, 2012 the provisions of the Exchange's continued listing standards with which the Company was not in compliance. The Company requested an appeal of the Exchange's delisting determination, which hearing before the Committee on Securities has been scheduled on December 19, 2012.
 
Effective October 31, 2012, trading of the Company’s common shares ceased on the Exchange and, on the same date, trading of the Company’s shares commenced on the OTCQB Marketplace under the trading symbol "ENVS". The OTCQB is a market tier operated by the OTC Market Group Inc. for over-the-counter traded companies. The Company anticipates that the delisting will be completed once the Exchange files a Form 25-NSE Notification of Delisting with the SEC. The delisting and transition to the OTCQB does not change the Company's obligations to file periodic and other reports with the SEC under applicable federal securities laws.
 
The admission of the Company’s common stock for trading on London Stock Exchange's AIM market is unaffected by the NYSE MKT's determination.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Overview

Enova believes it is a leader in the development, design and production of proprietary, power train systems and related components for electric and hybrid electric buses and medium and heavy duty commercial vehicles. Electric drive systems are comprised of an electric motor, electronics control unit and a gear unit which power a vehicle. Hybrid electric systems, which are similar to pure electric drive systems, contain an internal combustion engine in addition to the electric motor, and may eliminate external recharging of the battery system. A hydrogen fuel cell based system is similar to a hybrid system, except that instead of an internal combustion engine, a fuel cell is utilized as the power source. A fuel cell is a system which combines hydrogen and oxygen in a chemical process to produce electricity.
 
A fundamental element of Enova’s strategy is to develop and produce advanced proprietary software and hardware for applications in these alternative power markets. Our focus is powertrain systems including digital power conversion, power management and system integration, focusing chiefly on vehicle power generation.  Specifically, we develop, design and produce drive systems and related components for electric, hybrid electric and fuel cell powered vehicles in both the new and retrofit markets.
 
Our product development strategy is to design and introduce to market successively advanced products, each based on our core technical competencies. In each of our product/market segments, we provide products and services to leverage our core competencies in digital power management, power conversion and system integration. We believe that the underlying technical requirements shared among the market segments will allow us to more quickly transition from one emerging market to the next, with the goal of capturing early market share.
 
Enova’s primary market focus centers on aligning ourselves with key customers and integrating with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in our target markets.  We believe that alliances will result in the latest technology being implemented and customer requirements being met, with an optimized level of additional time and expense.
 
Our website, www.enovasystems.com, contains up-to-date information on our company, our products, programs and current events. Our website is a prime focal point for current and prospective customers, investors and other affiliated parties seeking additional information on our business.

Enova has incurred significant operating losses in the past. As of September 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $155.9 million. As reported in our Form 8-K filing on June 21, 2012, due to continued delays in industry adoption of EV technology, the Company's revenues continue to significantly decrease. As part of cost cutting measures, we implemented a reduction in our workforce whereby in excess of 80% of our employees have left the Company. We continue to evaluate strategic opportunities to leverage resources and assist with continuing operations. We expect to incur additional operating losses until we re-position the company in order to achieve a level of product sales sufficient to cover our operating and other expenses. Following reductions in the Company's expense base, the Company currently believes it has sufficient working capital in the short term through mid-December 2012 to continue operations and market trading.

Delisting from the NYSE MKT
 
On October 24, 2012, the Company received notification from the NYSE MKT (the "Exchange") stating that, because the Company was not in compliance with certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards, the Exchange intended to strike the common stock of the Company from the Exchange by filing a delisting application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The Company requested an appeal of the Exchange's delisting determination, which hearing before the Committee on Securities has been scheduled on December 19, 2012.
 
Effective October 31, 2012, trading of the Company’s common shares ceased on the Exchange and, on the same date, trading of the Company’s shares commenced on the OTCQB Marketplace under the trading symbol "ENVS". The OTCQB is a market tier operated by the OTC Market Group Inc. for over-the-counter traded companies.

Customer Highlights

FREIGHTLINER CUSTOM CHASSIS CORPORATION (FCCC) - Enova and FCCC began deploying new and retrofit all-electric vehicles to major fleet customers in 2011. The resulting integration of our all-electric drive system into the MT-45 chassis provides FCCC an all-electric product offering: the FCCC MT-EV. The MT-EV (the FCCC model name) chassis boasts a GVWR of 14,000 to 19,500 lbs. Enova and FCCC also jointly announced, in November 2011, intentions to deploy 3000 vehicles via the Green for Free™ Program, which is designed to allow fleet executives to operate full 100% electric commercial vehicles (EVs) and/or Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) for similar life cycle costs as those of diesel-powered commercial vehicles.  The anticipated savings fleets are expected to realize from the reduced maintenance and fuel cost of electricity of the electric vehicles are used over a period of time to cover the incremental expense for the technology. FCCC had begun, in early 2011, showcasing the Enova/FCCC EV step van at numerous events on the West Coast, as well as the recent NTEA Work Truck show in Indianapolis. This program is currently on hold, pending Enova's ability to continue operations and FCCC’s decision on battery sourcing, which has been delayed due to concerns over recent negative reports regarding battery reliability.
 
FIRST AUTO WORKS (FAW) - Enova continues to supply FAW drive systems for their hybrid buses. Since the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, Enova Systems and First Auto Works have deployed over 500 vehicles, all utilizing Enova’s pre-transmission hybrid drive system components. First Auto Works is one of China’s largest vehicle producers, manufacturing in excess of 1,000,000 vehicles annually. 
 
SMITH ELECTRIC VEHICLES (SEV) – Enova continues to be SEVs supplier of drive systems. SEV, a leader in the all EV market, is currently in the process of an IPO. A successful IPO could result in increased opportunity for Enova.
 
CSR CORPORATION LIMITED (CSR) – Enova completed its initial contract with CSR to integrate our all electric drive system into its commercial bus applications. CSR is approved by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council and was co-founded by China South Locomotive and Rolling Stock Industry Group Corporation and Beijing Railway Industry Economic and Trade Company with a total equity capital of $7 billion USD. CSR was established in December 2007 with sixteen (16) fully funded holding companies and over 80,000 employees distributed in 10 provinces and cities around the country.

Enova has delayed further introduction of the Omni Inverter and Charger with customers due to the reduction in our workforce and current financial resource constraints.  Provided additional resources are obtained, we will continue development and marketing of these two products, which we believe can gain broad market acceptance.

We continue to receive recognition from both governmental and private industry with regards to commercial application of our all-electric and hybrid drive systems and fuel cell power management technologies. Although we believe that current negotiations with above named parties may result in additional production contracts during 2012 and beyond, there are no assurances that such additional agreements will be realized.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company constantly re-evaluates these significant factors and makes adjustments where facts and circumstances dictate. Estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, customer receivables, inventories, equity investments, fixed asset lives, contingencies and litigation. There have been no material changes in estimates or assumptions compared to our most recent Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
 
The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe: (a) are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and (b) involve inherently uncertain issues which require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments.

Cash and cash equivalents — Cash consists of currency held at reputable financial institutions.

Inventory — Inventories are priced at the lower of cost or market utilizing first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost flow assumption. We maintain a perpetual inventory system and continuously record the quantity on-hand and standard cost for each product, including purchased components, subassemblies and finished goods. We maintain the integrity of perpetual inventory records through periodic physical counts of quantities on hand. Finished goods are reported as inventories until the point of transfer to the customer. Generally, title transfer is documented in the terms of sale.

Inventory reserve — We maintain an allowance against inventory for the potential future obsolescence or excess inventory. A substantial decrease in expected demand for our products, or decreases in our selling prices could lead to excess or overvalued inventories and could require us to substantially increase our allowance for excess inventory. If future customer demand or market conditions are less favorable than our projections, additional inventory write-downs may be required, and would be reflected in cost of revenues in the period the revision is made.

Allowance for doubtful accounts — We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The assessment of the ultimate realization of accounts receivable including the current credit-worthiness of each customer is subject to a considerable degree to the judgment of our management. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Stock-based Compensation — The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options based on the estimated fair values at the date of grant. The compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period.

Revenue recognition — Effective January 1, 2011, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, or ASU 2009-13, which is included within the Codification as Revenue Recognition-Multiple Element Arrangements, on a prospective basis. Under the provisions of ASU 2009-13, we no longer rely on objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the elements in a revenue arrangement in order to separate a deliverable into a separate unit of accounting, and the use of the residual method has been eliminated. We instead use a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is used to determine the allocation of consideration to each unit of accounting under an arrangement. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence, if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. As of September 30, 2012, we had not applied the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to any of our revenue arrangements as we had not entered into any new, or materially modified any of our existing, revenue arrangements since our adoption of ASU 2009-13. Therefore, there was no material impact on our financial position or results of operations from adopting ASU 2009-13. However, the provisions of ASU 2009-13 could have a material impact on the revenue recognized from any collaboration agreements that we enter into in future periods.
 
We generally recognize revenue at the time of shipment when title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, performance of our obligation is complete, our price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and we are reasonably assured of collection. If a loss is anticipated on any contract, a provision for the entire loss is made immediately. Determination of these criteria, in some cases, requires management’s judgment. Should changes in conditions cause management to determine that these criteria are not met for certain future transactions, revenue for any reporting period could be adversely affected.

The Company also recognizes engineering and construction contract revenues using the percentage-of-completion method, based primarily on contract costs incurred to date compared with total estimated contract costs. Customer-furnished materials, labor, and equipment, and in certain cases subcontractor materials, labor, and equipment, are included in revenues and cost of revenues when management believes that the company is responsible for the ultimate acceptability of the project. Contracts are segmented between types of services, such as engineering and construction, and accordingly, gross margin related to each activity is recognized as those separate services are rendered.

These accounting policies were applied consistently for all periods presented. Our operating results would be affected if other alternatives were used. Information about the impact on our operating results is included in the footnotes to our financial statements.

Several other factors related to the Company may have a significant impact on our operating results from year to year. For example, the accounting rules governing the timing of revenue recognition related to product contracts are complex and it can be difficult to estimate when we will recognize revenue generated by a given transaction. Factors such as acceptance of services provided, payment terms, creditworthiness of the customer, and timing of delivery or acceptance of our products often cause revenues related to sales generated in one period to be deferred and recognized in later periods. For arrangements in which services revenue is deferred, related direct and incremental costs may also be deferred.

The sum of the amounts and percentages may not equal the totals for the period due to the effects of rounding.

Computations of percentage change period over period are based upon our results, as rounded and presented herein.

Revenues. Revenues in the current year were negatively affected by continued uncertainty over battery performance and non-recoverable engineering costs associated with battery development.  As a result, OEM and other customers have delayed major all-electric vehicle marketing initiatives, resulting in decreased demand for our systems. The decrease in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was mainly due to a decrease in deliveries to our core customer base in the United States.  Revenues in the first nine months of 2012 were mainly attributed to continued shipments to First Auto Works in China and the Optare Group in the U.K.  We will have fluctuations in revenue from quarter to quarter.  Although we have seen indications from our customers to support future production growth, there can be no assurance there will be continuing demand for our products and services.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists of component and material costs, direct labor costs, integration costs and overhead related to manufacturing our products as well as inventory valuation reserve amounts. Cost of revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased primarily due to the decrease in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. We recorded a charge of approximately $945,000 during the first nine months of 2012 increasing our inventory obsolescence reserve after management updated its estimate of the realizable value of inventory.
 
Gross Profit. The decrease in gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year is primarily attributable to the decrease in revenues and the recording of an increase in the inventory obsolescence reserve in the first nine months of 2012.  
 
Research and Development (“R&D”). R&D costs decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in the prior year as we reduced engineering staff in June 2012 due to the Company’s lack of financial resources.  As a result, the Company’s development of its next generation Omni-series motor control unit and 10kW charger was put on hold at the end of the second quarter.  

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (“S, G & A”). S, G & A is comprised of activities in the executive, finance, marketing, field service and quality departments’ compensation as well as related payroll benefits, and non-cash charges for depreciation and options expense. The decrease in S, G & A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year is attributable the Company’s implementation of staff reductions, the termination of employment with the Company by approximately 80% of the Company’s workforce and other cost savings measures.  We continually monitor S, G & A in light of our business outlook and are taking proactive steps to control these costs.

Interest and Other Income (Expense). The interest and other income (expense) increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to $68,000 of fixed asset impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2012.

Net Loss. The decrease in the net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year was mainly due to the reduction in our workforce in the second quarter of 2012 which resulted in lower operating costs in 2012. 
 
Comparability of Quarterly Results. Our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past and we believe they will continue to do so in the future. Certain factors that could affect our quarterly operating results are described in Part I, Item 1A-Risk Factors contained in our Form 10-K for 2011, as updated by the disclosure contained in Item 1A of Part II of this Form 10-Q.  Due to these and other factors, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations are not meaningful indicators of future performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have experienced losses primarily attributable to research, development, marketing and other costs associated with our strategic plan as an international developer and supplier of electric drive and power management systems and components. Historically cash flows from operations have not been sufficient to meet our obligations and we have had to raise funds through several financing transactions. At least until we reach breakeven volume in sales and develop and/or acquire the capability to manufacture and sell our products profitably, we will need to continue to rely on cash from external financing sources. Our operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were financed by product sales, equity financing, as well as from working capital reserves.

On June 30, 2010, the Company entered into a secured a revolving credit facility with a financial institution for $200,000 which was secured by a $200,000 certificate of deposit.  The facility is for a period of 3 years and 6 months from July 1, 2010 to December 31, 2013.  The interest rate on a drawdown from the facility is the certificate of deposit rate plus 1.25% with interest payable monthly and the principal due at maturity. The financial institution also renewed the $200,000 irrevocable letter of credit for the full amount of the credit facility in favor of Sunshine Distribution LP, with respect to the lease of the Company’s corporate headquarters at 1560 West 190th Street, Torrance, California.  On November 7, 2012, Sunshine Distribution LP drew down on the letter of credit in the amount of $72,735 in order to pay for October rent and a remaining payable for a retroactive rent increase.  The financial institution redeemed part of the certificate of deposit in the same amount to fund the drawdown on the irrevocable standby letter of credit.

 
Net cash used in operating activities was $3,087,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $4,132,000 compared to $7,219,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Operating cash used in the first nine months of 2012 decreased compared to the prior year period due mainly to decreases in our sales volume in 2012 and the use of our existing cash resources to fund our current operations.  Non-cash items include expense for stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, issuance of common stock for employee services and other losses. These non-cash items increased by $650,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to larger increase in the inventory reserve and reserve for doubtful accounts.  The decrease in net loss was primarily due to a decrease in administrative and R&D expenses related to over 80% of our workforce leaving the Company in June 2012 and our restricting other administrative expenditures to conserve cash resources.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company had $108,000 of cash and cash equivalents compared to $3,096,000 as of December 31, 2011.

Net cash used in investing activities for capital expenditures was $16,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $237,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in acquisitions of test vehicles and equipment in the first nine months of 2012.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $115,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $3,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to proceeds of $132,000 from the issuance of Common Stock during second quarter of 2012 from the Lincoln Park facility, as explained in Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity to the financial statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
 
Net accounts receivable decreased by $437,000, or 58%, to $322,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $759,000 at December 31, 2011. The decrease in the receivable balance was primarily due to collections of receivables due and an increase in the Reserve for Doubtful Accounts due to financial instability at a major customer, Smith Electric Vehicles.  As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company maintained a reserve for doubtful accounts receivable of $214,000 and $18,000, respectively.
 
Net inventory and supplies decreased by $1,176,000, or 29%, to $2,860,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $4,036,000 at December 31, 2011.  The decrease resulted from net inventory activity including receipts totaling $544,000, consumption of $775,000 and an inventory reserve charge of $945,000.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased by $94,000, or 39%, to $148,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $242,000 at December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in prepaid rent and other expenses as the Company reduced expenditures to conserve cash in the third quarter of 2012.

Long term accounts receivable decreased by $6,000, or 8%, to $73,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $79,000 at December 31, 2011. The decrease is primarily due to reclassification of amounts that will be due within one year to current accounts receivable.  The Company agreed to defer collection of certain accounts receivable as requested by a customer for the term of the Company’s warranty guarantee. The Company continues to remedy all warranty claims and therefore anticipates collection of this receivable.

 Property and equipment, net of depreciation, decreased by $403,000, or 43%, to $525,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $928,000 at December 31, 2011.  The decrease is primarily due to depreciation expense of $351,000 and an asset impairment charge of $68,000, which was partially offset by additions to fixed assets totaling $16,000 in the first nine months of 2012.

Accounts payable decreased by $121,000, or 34%, to $233,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $354,000 at December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in inventory purchases made in 2012 as sales activity decreased.

Deferred revenues decreased by $302,000, or 94%, to $18,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $320,000 at December 31, 2011 as revenue was recognized in the second and third quarter of 2012 associated with prepayments on purchase orders from certain customers.

Accrued payroll and related expenses decreased by $163,000, or 61%, to $103,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $266,000 at December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in our workforce by over 80% in June 2012 which resulted in a pay out of accrued vacation of approximately $143,000 in the second quarter. 

Other accrued liabilities decreased by $112,000, or 22%, to $405,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $517,000 at December 31, 2011.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the accrued warranty balance as costs for warranty claims were greater than warranty accruals during the first nine months of 2012.

 
-18-

 
Accrued interest payable increased by $61,000, or 5%, to $1,298,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to a balance of $1,237,000 at December 31, 2011. The increase was due to interest related to our debt instruments, primarily the secured note payable in the amount of $1,267,000 to the Credit Managers Association of California.
 
Going concern

To date, the Company has incurred recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations. At September 30, 2012, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $155.8 million, working capital of approximately $2.8 million and shareholders’ equity of approximately $0.9 million. Until the Company can generate significant cash from its operations, the Company expects to continue to fund its operations with existing cash resources, proceeds from one or more private placement agreements, as well as potentially through debt financing or the sale of equity securities. However, the Company may not be successful in obtaining additional funding. In addition, the Company cannot be sure that its existing cash and investment resources will be adequate or that additional financing will be available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or its shareholders.

Our ongoing operations will require us to make necessary investments in human and production resources, regulatory compliance, as well as sales and marketing efforts. We do not currently have adequate internal liquidity to meet these objectives in the long term. On June 21, 2102, we reported in a Form 8-K filing that, as part of cost cutting measures in response to our decrease in revenue amid continued delays in industry adoption of EV technology resulting from ongoing battery cost and reliability concerns, in excess of 80% of our workforce left our Company, including the resignation of members of our senior management. We continue to evaluate strategic partnering opportunities and other external sources of liquidity, including the public and private financial markets and strategic partners. Having insufficient funds may require the Company to delay or potentially eliminate some or all of its development programs, relinquish some or even all rights to product candidates at an earlier stage of development or negotiate less favorable terms than it would otherwise choose.  Failure to obtain adequate financing also may adversely affect the launch of the Company’s its ability to continue in business. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, substantial dilution to existing stockholders would likely result. If the Company raises additional funds by incurring debt financing, the terms of the debt may involve significant cash payment obligations, as well as covenants and specific financial ratios that may restrict its ability to operate its business.

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $0.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and we anticipate that our existing cash and anticipated receivables collections will be sufficient to meet projected operating requirements through mid-December 2012 to continue operations and market trading.        

We have also accessed the capital markets to obtain additional operating funds.  In December 2011, we raised approximately $1,245,000, net of financing costs of $442,500 through an equity issuance to certain accredited investors, which was disclosed in our Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2012.  Additionally, we entered into two Purchase Agreements (the facility) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund in April to issue up $10,000,000 in shares of our common stock and received proceeds of $132,000, net of financing costs of $152,000, from the initial purchase of shares of Common Stock from Lincoln Park in the second quarter. Access to funding under the facility is dependent upon our share price maintaining a floor price of at least $0.15 per share.  Our share price decreased below that threshold in May 2012 and until our share price increases above the threshold level, we cannot raise additional funds from the facility.

The Company continues to pursue other options to raise additional capital to fund its operations, including potential strategic partnerships; however, there can be no assurance that we can successfully raise additional funds through the capital markets.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures for the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that the Company’s internal control over disclosure controls and procedures was effective as of September 30, 2012.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  Legal Proceedings

As reported in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2011, six of the eight counts in the litigation between Enova and Arens Controls Company, L.L.C. were settled. The two counts that were not settled remain outstanding.  There have been no material developments with respect thereto during the period covered by this report.  We intend to continue to contest the remaining unresolved counts.

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of probable losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts.
 
Given the uncertainty inherent in litigation, we do not believe it is possible to develop estimates of the range of reasonably possible loss for these matters. Considering our past experience, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. Because most contingencies are resolved over long periods of time, potential liabilities are subject to change due to new developments, changes in settlement strategy or the impact of evidentiary requirements, which could cause us to pay damage awards or settlements (or become subject to equitable remedies) that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or operating cash flows in the periods recognized or paid.

ITEM 1A.  Risk Factors
 
    The additional risk factors included below supplement and update the risk factors previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.  There have been no other material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed in such Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
    Our common stock has been delisted from the NYSE MKT
 
On October 24, 2012, the Company received notification from the NYSE MKT (the "Exchange") stating that, because the Company was not in compliance with certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards, the Exchange intended to strike the common stock of the Company from the Exchange by filing a delisting application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company previously disclosed in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2012, May 29, 2012, July 6, 2012, and October 24, 2012 the provisions of the Exchange's continued listing standards with which the Company was not in compliance. The Company did not request an appeal of the Exchange's delisting determination.

 
-20-

 
Effective October 31, 2012, the Company’s common shares were delisted from the Exchange and, on the same date, trading of the Company’s shares commenced on the OTCQB Marketplace under the trading symbol "ENVS". The OTCQB is a market tier operated by the OTC Market Group Inc. for over-the-counter traded companies. The Company anticipates that the delisting will be completed once the Exchange files a Form 25-NSE Notification of Delisting with the SEC. The delisting and transition to the OTCQB does not change the Company's obligations to file periodic and other reports with the SEC under applicable federal securities laws.
 
As a result of the delisting of our common stock from the NYSE MKT, we believe that the price and liquidity of our common stock, and our ability to raise funds from the sale of equity in the future, will be materially affected.
 
    The sale or issuance of our common stock to Lincoln Park may cause dilution and the sale of the shares of common stock acquired by Lincoln Park, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our common stock to fall
 
On April 24, 2012, we entered into the $3,400,000 Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park pursuant to which we may issue to Lincoln Park from time to time over a 36-month period up to $3,400,000 worth of our common stock subject to certain limitations defined in the prospectus supplement and 567, 681 shares to be issued to Lincoln Park at no cost as a fee for its commitment to purchase such shares. In addition, on April 23, 2012, we entered into the $6,600,000 Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which Lincoln Park committed to purchase an additional $6,600,000 worth of our common stock, from time to time over a 36-month period commencing after the SEC has declared effective a registration statement for the resale of such shares that we must file with the SEC within 120 business days after the date of such agreement.
 
Other than Lincoln Park’s initial purchase under the $3,400,000 Purchase Agreement of 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at a price per share of $0.20 for an aggregate amount of $250,000, or the Initial Purchase, the purchase price for the shares that we may sell to Lincoln Park will fluctuate based on the price of our common stock. It is anticipated that shares will be sold over a period of up to 36 months after the date of the prospectus supplement. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of shares we issue to Lincoln Park may cause the trading price of our common stock to fall.
 
We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Lincoln Park, except that, pursuant to the terms of our agreements with Lincoln Park, we would be unable to sell shares to Lincoln Park if and when the market price of our common stock is below $0.15 per share. Sales of our common stock, if any, to Lincoln Park will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. As such, other than the Initial Purchase, Lincoln Park may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the shares of our common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and, after it has acquired shares, Lincoln Park may sell all, some or none of those shares. Therefore, sales to Lincoln Park by us pursuant to either the $3,400,000 Purchase Agreement or the $6,600,000 Purchase Agreement could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.
 
Raising additional funds by issuing securities, engaging in debt financings or through licensing arrangements may cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish proprietary rights.
 
To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities as we did in 2011, April 2012 and May 2012, our existing stockholders’ ownership may be substantially diluted. Any debt financing we enter into may involve covenants that restrict our operations or our ability to enter into other funding arrangements. These restrictive covenants may include limitations on additional borrowing and specific restrictions on the use of our assets, as well as prohibitions on our ability to create liens, pay dividends, redeem our stock or make investments. In addition, if we raise additional funds through licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our potential products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

 One group of our shareholders holds a large percentage of our outstanding common stock, and, should they choose to do so, may have significant influence over the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval.
 
Approximately 25.4% of our outstanding common stock is held by a group of 17 shareholders (the “Low-Beer Managed Accounts”) who invested in our December 2011 placement of 11,250,000 shares of common stock together with warrants to purchase up to 11,250,00 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years and exercisable at a price of $0.22 per share. The warrants further provide that if, for a twenty consecutive trading day period, the average of the closing price quoted on the OTCQB market is greater than or equal to $0.44 per share, with at least an average of 10,000 shares traded per day, then, on the 10th calendar day following written notice from the Company, any outstanding warrants will be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to the cashless/net exercise provisions under the warrants. Accordingly, the Low-Beer Managed Accounts, should they choose to do so, may be able to significantly influence the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or any other significant corporate transaction, and such group of investors could delay or prevent a change of control of our company, even if such a change of control would benefit our other stockholders. The interests of the Low-Beer Managed Accounts may differ from the interests of our other stockholders.
 
Funding from our equity lines of credit may be limited or be insufficient to fund our operations or to implement our strategy.
 
Under our purchase agreements with Lincoln Park, we may direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to $3,400,000 of shares of common stock over a 36 month period, and, upon effectiveness of a registration statement for resale of the shares and subject to other conditions, we also may direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to $6,600,000 of our shares of common stock over a 36 month period. The amounts available for purchase is limited under each purchase agreement. The extent to which we rely on Lincoln Park as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the amount, if any, of additional working capital needed, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. If we are unable to sell enough of our products to finance our working capital requirements and if sufficient funding from Lincoln Park were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive, we would need to secure another source of funding. Even if we sell all $10,000,000 under the aggregate purchase agreements to Lincoln Park, there can be no assurance this would be sufficient to support our operations or implement our growth plans in all cases.
 
    We will need to secure adequate funding to complete the development program for Omni Product Line and Green For Free (GFF).
 
Our current cash reserves are not sufficient to fully fund GFF development and commence production of the Omni product line, and as a result, we will need additional funding to complete the development of these product initiatives and to fund operations generally. We may seek to enter potential strategic partnerships related to both GFF and Omni production to provide funding for continued development of the Omni platform, support of our commercialization operations with respect to GFF and support funding of general operations. However, there can be no assurance that such a strategic partnership would be completed or on terms that are favorable to us. If we are unable to reach agreement with a potential strategic partner or if a strategic partnership does not provide adequate funding, we may need to obtain additional funding to complete the development of GFF. Raising additional equity capital may be difficult due to our share price trading at near historical lows and the delisting of our stock. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital to fund our development programs and operations generally, we may be unable to proceed with the development of GFF and our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.
