1. BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Pioneer
Power Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (referred to herein as the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,”
“our” and “us”) design, manufacture, integrate, refurbish, service, distribute and sell electric power systems,
distributed energy resources, power generation equipment and mobile electric vehicle (“EV”) charging solutions. Our products
and services are sold to a broad range of customers in the utility, industrial and commercial markets. Our customers include, but are

Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC and reflect the accounts of the Company as of June 30, 2023. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading to the reader. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for a year-end balance sheet.
All
dollar amounts (except share and per share data) presented in the notes to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
are stated in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted. Amounts may not foot due to rounding. ASC 740-270 requires the use of an
estimated annual effective tax rate to compute the tax provision during an interim period unless certain exceptions are met. We have
used a discrete-period computation method to calculate taxes for the fiscal three and six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The
Company anticipates that its annual effective tax rate will be
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pioneer and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the risk factors under the heading “Part II - Item 1A. Risk Factors” and the risk factors and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, as of June 30, 2023, the Company had

We have met our cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings, the completion of the Equity Transaction, proceeds from the sale of the CleanSpark common stock and warrants to purchase CleanSpark common stock, sale of common stock under the ATM Program, funding from the Payroll Protection Program and collecting all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes. Our cash requirements historically were generally for operating activities, debt repayment, capital improvements and acquisitions. We expect to meet our cash needs with our working capital and cash flows from our operating activities. We expect our cash requirements to be generally for operating activities, product development and capital improvements. The Company expects that its current cash balance is sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months.
On
December 13, 2021, we filed a prospectus supplement, which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-249569),
that was declared effective by the SEC on October 27, 2020, in connection with the offer and sale of up to an aggregate offering amount

Risks and Uncertainties
The World Health Organization determined that COVID-19 no longer fit the definition of a public health emergency and the U.S. government announced that the declaration of a public health emergency associated with COVID-19 expired on May 11, 2023. However, COVID-19 has remained and is expected to continue to remain as a serious endemic threat for an indefinite future period and may continue to adversely affect the global economy. The continuing impacts of the COVID-19 endemic, as well as rising interest rates, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and geopolitical developments (including the war in Ukraine) have resulted, and may continue to result, in a global slowdown of economic activity, which may decrease demand for a broad variety of goods and services, including those provided by the Company’s clients, while also disrupting supply channels, sales channels and advertising and marketing activities for an unknown period of time. As a result of the current uncertainty in economic activity, the Company is unable to predict the potential size and duration of the impact on its revenue and its results of operations, if any. The extent of the potential impact of these macroeconomic factors on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on a variety of factors, including the continuing impacts of the COVID-19 endemic and the extent of geopolitical disruption and their respective impacts on the Company’s clients, partners, industry, and employees, all of which are uncertain at this time and cannot be accurately predicted. The Company continues to monitor the effects of these macroeconomic factors and intends to take steps deemed appropriate to limit the impact on its business. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company was able to operate substantially at capacity.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s accounting policies during the second quarter of 2023.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company which would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-03, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock.” ASU 2023-03 amends the ASC for SEC updates pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120; SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting; and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. These updates were immediately effective and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Accounts Receivable
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” using a modified retrospective approach. The standard amends several aspects of the measurement of credit losses related to certain financial instruments, including the replacement of the existing incurred credit loss model and other models with the current expected credit losses model. The cumulative effect of adoption did not result in an adjustment to the allowance for credit loss, and accordingly, the Company’s accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2023.
The
Company accounts for trade receivables at original invoice amount less an estimate made for expected credit losses. The Company’s
allowance for expected credit losses on accounts receivable reflects management’s estimate of credit losses over the remaining
expected life of such assets, measured primarily using historical experience, as well as current conditions and forecasts that affect
the collectability of the reported amount. There were
3. REVENUES
Nature of our products and services
Our principal products and services include electric power systems, distributed energy resources, power generation equipment and mobile EV charging solutions.
Products
Our T&D Solutions business provides electric power systems and distributed energy resources that help customers effectively and efficiently protect, control, transfer, monitor and manage their electric energy requirements.
Our Critical Power business provides customers with our suite of mobile e-Boost electric vehicle charging solutions and power generation equipment.
Services
Power generation systems represent considerable investments that require proper maintenance and service in order to operate reliably during a time of emergency. Our power maintenance programs provide preventative maintenance, repair and support service for our customers’ power generation systems.
Our principal source of revenue is derived from sales of products and fees for services. We measure revenue based upon the consideration specified in the customer arrangement, and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations in the customer arrangement are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Customers typically receive the benefit of our products when the risk of loss or control for the product transfers to the customer and for services as they are performed. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised products or services in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.

Return of a product requires that the buyer obtain permission in writing from the Company. When the buyer requests authorization to return material for reasons of their own, the buyer will be charged for placing the returned goods in saleable condition, restocking charges and for any outgoing and incoming transportation paid by the Company. The Company warrants title to the products, and also warrants the products on date of shipment to the buyer, to be of the kind and quality described in the contract, merchantable, and free of defects in workmanship and material. Returns and warranties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were insignificant.

4. REVISION OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In
connection with the preparation of our consolidated interim financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we completed
an analysis of one of our customer contracts under ASC 606 and, as a result, we determined that the performance obligations are satisfied
over time. See “Note 3 – Revenues in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in Part I of this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q. As a result of the analysis, we identified additional revenues to be recognized of $

In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, we evaluated this revision based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors as to whether it was material to the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and if amendments of previously filed financial statements with the SEC are required. We determined that the adjustment is neither quantitatively nor qualitatively material and, therefore, the revision does not have a material impact to the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or other prior periods.

10. BUSINESS SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
The Company follows ASC 280 - Segment Reporting in determining its reportable segments. The Company considered the way its management team, most notably its chief operating decision maker, makes operating decisions and assesses performance and considered which components of the Company’s enterprise have discrete financial information available. As the Company makes decisions using a manufactured products vs. distributed products and services group focus, its analysis resulted in two reportable segments: T&D Solutions and Critical Power. The Critical Power reportable segment is the Company’s Titan Energy Systems, Inc. business unit. The T&D Solutions reportable segment is the Company’s Pioneer Custom Electrical Products Corp. business unit.
The T&D Solutions segment is involved in the design, manufacture and sale of circuit protection and controls equipment used primarily by large industrial and commercial operations to manage their electrical power distribution needs. The Critical Power segment provides mobile high capacity charging equipment, power generation equipment and aftermarket field-services in order to help customers secure fast vehicle charging where fixed charging infrastructure does not exist, and additionally to ensure smooth, uninterrupted power to operations during times of emergency.
The following tables present information about segment income and loss:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2023.
Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
U.S. dollars are reported in thousands except for share and per share amounts.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, financial projections, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulation. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:
| ● | General economic conditions and their effect on demand for electrical equipment, particularly in the commercial construction market, but also in the power generation, industrial production, data center, oil and gas, marine and infrastructure industries. | |
| ● | The effects of fluctuations in sales on our business, revenues, expenses, net income (loss), income (loss) per share, margins and profitability. | |
| ● | Many of our competitors are better established and have significantly greater resources and may subsidize their competitive offerings with other products and services, which may make it difficult for us to attract and retain customers. | |
| ● | The potential loss or departure of key personnel, including Nathan J. Mazurek, our chairman, president and chief executive officer. | |
| ● | Our ability to generate internal growth, maintain market acceptance of our existing products and gain acceptance for our new products. | |
| ● | Unanticipated increases in raw material prices or disruptions in supply could increase production costs and adversely affect our profitability. | |
| ● | Our ability to realize revenue reported in our backlog. | |
| ● | Operating margin risk due to competitive pricing and operating efficiencies, supply chain risk, material, labor or overhead cost increases, interest rate risk and commodity risk. | |
| ● | Strikes or labor disputes with our employees may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. | |
| ● | The impact of geopolitical activity on the economy, changes in government regulations such as income taxes, climate control initiatives, the timing or strength of an economic recovery in our markets and our ability to access capital markets. | |
| ● | Material weaknesses in internal controls. | |
| ● | Future sales of large blocks of our common stock may adversely impact our stock price. | |
| ● | The liquidity and trading volume of our common stock. | |
| ● | Our business could be adversely affected by an outbreak of disease, epidemic or pandemic, such as the global coronavirus pandemic, or similar public threat, or fear of such an event. | |
| ● | Risks associated with litigation and claims, which could impact our financial results and condition. |
| 15 |
The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with that may cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. Moreover, new risks regularly emerge, and it is not possible for us to predict or articulate all risks we face, nor can we assess the impact of all risks on our business or the extent to which any risk, or combination of risks, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Part II - Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of the foregoing and other risks that relate to our business and investing in shares of our common stock.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General. On October 20, 2020, we entered into an At the Market Sale Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), pursuant to which we may offer and sell our shares of common stock, preferred stock, warrants and/or units of up to $25,000 from time to time through Wainwright, acting as sales agent or principal (the “ATM Program”). As of June 30, 2023, we had $9,624 of cash on hand generated primarily from the sale of common stock under the ATM Program during the year ended December 31, 2021, payment of all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes during the year ended December 31, 2022 and cash flows from operating activities. We have met our cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings, proceeds from the sale of the CleanSpark Common Stock and warrants to purchase CleanSpark Common Stock, the sale of common stock under the ATM Program, funding from the Payroll Protection Program and collecting all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes. Our cash requirements historically were generally for operating activities, capital improvements and acquisitions.
On December 13, 2021, we filed a prospectus supplement, which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-249569), that was declared effective by the SEC on October 27, 2020, in connection with the offer and sale of up to an aggregate offering amount of $8,600 of common stock that may be issued and sold under the ATM Program. We did not sell any shares of common stock under the ATM Program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, $8,600 of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM Program.
The World Health Organization determined that COVID-19 no longer fit the definition of a public health emergency and the U.S. government announced that the declaration of a public health emergency associated with COVID-19 expired on May 11, 2023. However, COVID-19 has remained and is expected to continue to remain as a serious endemic threat for an indefinite future period and may continue to adversely affect the global economy. The continuing impacts of the COVID-19 endemic, as well as rising interest rates, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and geopolitical developments (including the war in Ukraine) have resulted, and may continue to result, in a global slowdown of economic activity, which may decrease demand for a broad variety of goods and services, including those provided by the Company’s clients, while also disrupting supply channels, sales channels and advertising and marketing activities for an unknown period of time. As a result of the current uncertainty in economic activity, the Company is unable to predict the potential size and duration of the impact on its revenue and its results of operations, if any. The extent of the potential impact of these macroeconomic factors on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on a variety of factors, including the continuing impacts of the COVID-19 endemic and the extent of geopolitical disruption and their respective impacts on the Company’s clients, partners, industry, and employees, all of which are uncertain at this time and cannot be accurately predicted. The Company continues to monitor the effects of these macroeconomic factors and intends to take steps deemed appropriate to limit the impact on its business. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company was able to operate substantially at capacity.

There can be no assurance that precautionary measures, whether adopted by the Company or imposed by others, will be effective, and such measures could negatively affect its sales, marketing, and client service efforts, delay and lengthen its sales cycles, decrease its employees’, clients’, or partners’ productivity, or create operational or other challenges, any of which could harm its business and results of operations.
Cash Provided by / (Used in) Operating Activities. Cash provided by our operating activities was $366 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $1,621 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to the decrease in our net loss and working capital fluctuations.
Cash Used in Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $810, as compared to $174 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Additions to property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $810, as compared to $174 of additions during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Cash Used in Financing Activities. Cash used in our financing activities was $228 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $119 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The primary use of cash in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was repayments of financing leases.
Working Capital. As of June 30, 2023, we had working capital of $14,363, including $9,624 of cash on hand, compared to working capital of $14,074, including $10,296 of cash on hand at December 31, 2022.
Assessment of Liquidity. At June 30, 2023, we had $9,624 of cash on hand generated primarily from the sale of common stock under the ATM Program during the year ended December 31, 2021, payment of all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes during the year ended December 31, 2022 and cash flows from operating activities. We have met our cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings, proceeds from the sale of the CleanSpark Common Stock and warrants to purchase CleanSpark Common Stock, sale of common stock under the ATM Program, funding from the Payroll Protection Program and collecting all unpaid principal and interest from the Seller Notes. Our cash requirements historically were generally for operating activities, capital improvements and acquisitions.
We expect to meet our cash needs with our working capital and cash flows from our operating activities. We expect our cash requirements to be generally for operating activities, capital improvements and product development. We expect that product development and promotional activities related to our new initiatives will continue in the near future and we expect to continue to incur costs related to such activities. We expect that our cash balance is sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months.
As of June 30, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that had, or that may have, a material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Capital Expenditures
The Company had $810 of additions to property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $174 of additions to property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Known Trends, Events, Uncertainties and Factors That May Affect Future Operations
We believe that our future operating results will continue to be subject to quarterly variations based upon a wide variety of factors, including the cyclical nature of the electrical equipment industry and the markets for our products and services. Our operating results could also be impacted by changing customer requirements and exposure to fluctuations in prices of important raw supplies, such as copper, steel and aluminum. We have various insurance policies, including cybersecurity, covering risks in amounts that we consider adequate. In addition to these measures, we attempt to recover other cost increases through improvements to our manufacturing efficiency and through increases in prices where competitively feasible. Lastly, other economic conditions we cannot foresee may affect customer demand. The continuing impacts of the COVID-19 endemic are currently indeterminable, and has affected and may continue to affect the global economy. In addition, the consequences of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including related sanctions and countermeasures, and the effects of rising global inflation, are difficult to predict, and could adversely impact geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions, the global economy, and contribute to increased market volatility, which may in turn adversely affect our business and operations. We predominately sell to customers in the industrial production and commercial construction markets. Accordingly, changes in the condition of any of our customers may have a greater impact than if our sales were more evenly distributed between different end markets. For a further discussion of factors that may affect future operating results see the sections entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of June 30, 2023. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Based on this evaluation, and as a result of the material weakness described below, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023. In light of this determination, our management has performed additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Material Weakness
As of December 31, 2022, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting due to not having the appropriate controls in place over our revenue recognition process for nonroutine and complex revenue transactions in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which continued to exist as of June 30, 2023.
In order to remediate this material weakness, management has expanded and improved our process for reviewing customer contracts and revenue recognition inputs, including through the engagement of third-party accounting professionals with expertise in evaluating customer contracts to obtain guidance on large and/or unique contracts in order to ensure that ASC 606 is accurately applied and documented.
Although we began implementing the enhancements described above at the end of 2022 and have been continuing our remediation efforts through June 30, 2023, the material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
