NOTES

TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE

1— BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Acorn Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries, OmniMetrix, LLC and OMX Holdings, Inc. (collectively, “Acorn” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X and consequently have been condensed. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022.

NOTE

2—ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Useof Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

As applicable to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions relate to uncertainties with respect to income taxes, inventories, account receivable allowances, contingencies, revenue recognition, management’s projections and analyses of the possible impairments.

Concentrationsof Credit Risk

Financial

instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company’s cash was deposited with a U.S. bank and amounted to approximately $1,784,000 at March 31, 2022. The Company does not believe there is significant risk of non-performance by these counterparties. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, there were no customers that represented greater than 10% of the Company’s total invoiced sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, one customer represented approximately 11% of total invoiced sales. Approximately 10% of the accounts receivable at March 31, 2022 was due from one customer who pays its receivables over usual credit periods. As of May 11, 2022, we have collected the full outstanding amount of the approximately $84,000  due from this customer as of March 31, 2022. Credit risk with respect to the balance of trade receivables is generally diversified due to the number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base.

Basicand Diluted Net (Loss) Income Per Share

Basic

net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income attributable to Acorn Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year, excluding treasury stock. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive potential of common shares which would result from the exercise of stock options and warrants. The dilutive effects of stock options and warrants are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share if doing so would be antidilutive. The weighted average number of options and warrants that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as they had an antidilutive effect, was approximately 929,000

(which have a weighted average exercise price

of $0.41

)

and approximately 35,000

(which have a weighted average exercise price

of $0.13

),

respectively, for the three-month period ending March 31, 2022. The weighted average number of options and warrants, in the aggregate, that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as they had an antidilutive effect, was approximately 964,000

(which have a weighted average exercise price

of $0.40

)

and approximately 245,000

(which have a weighted average exercise price

of $0.99 ) for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

RecentlyIssued Accounting Principles

Other than the pronouncement noted below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), authoritative guidance amending how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance requires the application of a current expected credit loss model, which is a new impairment model based on expected losses. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE

3—LIQUIDITY

As

of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $1,784,000 of consolidated cash.

At

March 31, 2022, the Company had a negative working capital of approximately $202,000

.

Its working capital included approximately $1,784,000

of cash and deferred revenue of approximately

$3,652,000

.

Such deferred revenue does not require significant cash outlay for the revenue to be recognized. Net cash increased during the three months ended March 31, 2022 by approximately $62,000

,

of which approximately $221,000

was provided by operating activities and

approximately $159,000 was used in investing activities

OmniMetrix is considered an essential business because it provides infrastructure support to both government and commercial sectors and across key industries. The Company has experienced minimal negative impacts due to the COVID-19 pandemic to date. Throughout the pandemic, the Company has continued to realize new equipment sales (although not at the anticipated growth rate due to travel and meeting restrictions which have negatively impacted the sales closing timeline), has continued to collect its monthly recurring monitoring revenues and has retained its customer base. While the impacts of COVID-19 in the future are uncertain, the Company believes that due to the need for backup power and the desirability of remote monitoring services, it should continue to be positioned for stable financial performance.

As

of May 11, 2022, the Company had cash of approximately $1,335,000. The Company believes that such cash, plus the cash generated from operations, will provide sufficient liquidity to finance the operating activities of Acorn and OmniMetrix at their current level of operations for the foreseeable future and for the twelve months from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in particular. The Company may, at some point, elect to obtain a new line of credit or other source of financing to fund additional investments in the business.

NOTE

4—LEASES

OmniMetrix leases office space and office equipment under operating lease agreements. The office lease has an expiration date of September 30, 2025. The office equipment lease was entered into in April 2019 and has a sixty-month term. Operating lease payments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were approximately $

30,000

for both periods. The present value of future minimum lease payments on non-cancelable operating leases as of March 31, 2022 using a discount rate of 4.5% is approximately $417,000. The 4.5% discount rate used is the incremental borrowing rate which, as defined in ASC 842, is the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term and in a similar economic environment, an amount equal to the lease payments.

On

July 6, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with King Industrial Realty, Inc. to sublease from the Company 1,900 square feet of office space of the Company’s 21,000 square feet of office and production space in the Hamilton Mill Business Park located in Buford, Georgia for a monthly sublease payment of $2,375 which includes the base rent plus a pro-rata share of utilities, property taxes and insurance. Fifty percent of any excess rent received above the per square foot amount that the Company pays will be remitted to the Company’s landlord less the allocation of any shared expenses and leasehold improvements specific to the sublease. The Company invested approximately $7,000 on leasehold improvements related to the sublease. Due to the offset of the capital expenditures, the Company does not expect to have any net rent due to its landlord for the first twelve months of the sublease. The estimated amount the Company expects to remit to the landlord each year of the sublease subsequent to the first twelve months is approximately $6,700 per year. The sublease commenced on October 1, 2021 and will run through September 30, 2025 which is the end of the Company’s lease term with its landlord. Below are the future payments expected under the sublease (in thousands) net of the estimated annual service cost of $2,220 (gross of the estimated amount the Company expects to remit to its landlord):

5—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On August 19, 2019, OmniMetrix entered into an agreement with a software development partner to create and license to OmniMetrix a new software platform and application. Pursuant to this agreement, OmniMetrix paid this partner equal monthly payments over the first seven months of the term of the agreement equal to $200,000 in the aggregate.

OmniMetrix will also pay the partner (i) a per-sensor monitoring fee

for each sensor connected to the developed technology, or (ii) a percentage of any revenue received above a specified amount per sensor monitored per month in gas applications only. Commencing on January 1, 2021, OmniMetrix paid the partner a quarterly licensing fee of $12,500 which was renegotiated to $4,450 effective October 1, 2021. The annual licensing fee moving forward will be $17,800, which will be paid in quarterly increments of $4,450. The per-sensor monitoring fees have not yet commenced . The initial term of this agreement ends on August 19, 2022 but will automatically renew for one-year periods unless either party delivers a written notice of termination to the other party sixty days prior to the end of the respective term.

In

addition to the above, the Company has approximately $417,000 in operating lease obligations payable through 2026 and approximately $49,000 in other contractual obligations. The Company also has approximately $1.9 million in open purchase order commitments payable through 2022.

NOTE

(b) Summary Employee Option Information

The Company’s stock option plans provide for the grant to officers, directors and employees of options to purchase shares of common stock. The purchase price may be paid in cash or, if the option is “in-the-money” at the end of the option term, it is automatically exercised “net”. In a net exercise of an option, the Company does not require a payment of the exercise price of the option from the optionee, but reduces the number of shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of the option by the smallest number of whole shares that has an aggregate fair market value equal to or in excess of the aggregate exercise price for the option shares covered by the option exercised. Each option is exercisable for one share of the Company’s common stock. Most options expire within five to ten years from the date of the grant, and generally vest over three-year period from the date of the grant.

At March 31, 2022, 1,484,850 options were available for grant under the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and no options were available for grant under the 2006 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors.

During the three

months ended March 31, 2022, 30,000 options were issued to directors, 35,000 options were issued to the Company’s CEO and 30,770 options were issued to the Company’s vice president of sales. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no grants to non-employees (other than the non-employee directors and CEO). The fair value of the options issued was approximately $38,000.

No

options were exercised in the three months ended March 31, 2022. The intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable at March 31, 2022 was approximately $94,000 and $98,000, respectively.

The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value, utilizing the following assumptions for the respective years (all in weighted averages):

BACKLOG

As of March 31, 2022, our backlog of work to be completed (primarily deferred revenue) at our OmniMetrix subsidiary totaled approximately $5.7 million.

RECENT

DEVELOPMENTS

On January 1, 2022, 30,000 options in the aggregate were issued to directors with an exercise price of $0.63 and that vest in equal increments on January 1, 2022, April 1, 2022, July 1, 2022 and October 1, 2022, valued at approximately $12,100 in the aggregate.

On January 1, 2022, 35,000 options were issued to the CEO with an exercise price of $0.63 and that vest in equal increments on January 1, 2022, April 1, 2022, July 1, 2022 and October 1, 2022, valued at approximately $14,100.

On March 4, 2022, 30,770 options were issued to the vice president of sales with an exercise price of $0.55 and that vest in equal increments over three years on the anniversary date of the grant. These options are valued at approximately $11,400.

On August 19, 2019, we entered into an agreement with a software development partner to create and license to us a new software platform and application. Pursuant to this agreement, we paid this partner equal monthly payments over the first seven months of the term of the agreement equal to $200,000 in the aggregate. We will also pay the partner (i) a per-sensor monitoring fee for each sensor connected to the developed technology, or (ii) a percentage of any revenue received above a specified amount per sensor monitored per month, in gas applications only. Commencing on January 1, 2021, we paid the partner a quarterly licensing fee of $12,500 which was renegotiated to $4,450 effective October 1, 2021. The annual licensing fee moving forward will be $17,800, which will be paid in quarterly increments of $4,450. The per-sensor monitoring fees have not yet commenced. The initial term of this agreement ends on August 19, 2022 but will automatically renew for one-year periods unless either party delivers a written notice of termination to the other party sixty days prior to the end of the respective term.

We entered into a new agreement effective May 1, 2020 for data hosting services, replacing an expiring agreement with the same vendor. The agreement had a twelve-month term. In January 2021, we elected to renew this agreement for an additional twelve months under the same terms, extending the agreement to April 30, 2022. We did not extend this agreement for an additional one-year term beyond the expiration of the previous term on April 30, 2022 and are currently under a month-to-month arrangement which we intend to terminate by the end of the second quarter of 2022. Under the applicable data hosting services agreements, we paid approximately $41,000 and $37,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

On March 17, 2021, we entered into a master services agreement for the development of a new user interface for our customer data portal. The cost of this project is approximately $119,000 in design and development services ($14,000 was paid at the commencement of this project and three equal installments of approximately $23,000 were paid monthly starting in July 2021 with the fourth and final installment to be paid upon completion and launch of the new interface). This project is substantially completed and the launch of the new customer portal is expected in the second quarter of 2022.

The cost of this project is capitalized and amortization will begin once the new interface is completed and ready to deploy.

The master services agreement also covers the design, set-up and deployment of a new Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure to host our OmniView data servers which will replace our existing Peak 10 datacenter hosting environment. The new infrastructure will provide a more modern, agile and cost-effective environment in which to grow our IoT connections and services. We invested approximately $166,000 in this initiative during the year ended December 31, 2021 and approximately $144,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2022. The new Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure environment was completed and launched on May 1, 2022. The estimated additional investment subsequent to the end of the quarter and up to the launch date is approximately $70,000.

The cost of this project is capitalized and amortization over an estimated useful life of seven years began on May 1, 2022.

OVERVIEW

AND TREND INFORMATION

Acorn Energy, Inc. (“Acorn” or “the Company”) is a holding company focused on technology-driven solutions for energy infrastructure asset management. We provide the following services and products through our OmniMetrix^TM^, LLC (“OmniMetrix”) subsidiary:

●	Power Generation (“PG”) monitoring. OmniMetrix’s PG activities provide wireless remote monitoring and control systems<br> and services for critical assets as well as Internet of Things applications. The PG segment includes our monitoring device for industrial<br> air compressors and dryers, and a line of annunciators.
●	Cathodic Protection (“CP”) monitoring. OmniMetrix’s CP segment provides remote monitoring of cathodic protection systems<br> on gas pipelines for gas utilities and pipeline companies.

Each of our PG and CP activities represents a reportable segment. The following analysis should be read together with the segment and revenue information provided in Notes 7 and 8 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

OmniMetrix

OmniMetrix is a Georgia limited liability company based in Buford, Georgia that develops and markets wireless remote monitoring and control systems and services for multiple markets in the Internet of Things (“IoT”) ecosystem: critical assets (including stand-by power generators, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers, turbines, compressors, and other industrial equipment) as well as cathodic protection for the pipeline industry (gas utilities and pipeline companies). Acorn owns 99% of OmniMetrix with 1% owned by the former CEO of OmniMetrix.

Following the emergence of machine-to-machine (M2M) and IoT applications, whereby companies aggregate multiple sensors and monitors into a simplified dashboard for customers, OmniMetrix believes it plays a key role in this new economic ecosystem. In addition, OmniMetrix sees a rapidly growing need for backup power infrastructure to secure critical military, government, and private sector assets against emergency events including terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and cybersecurity threats. As residential and industrial standby generators, turbines, compressors, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers and other industrial equipment are part of the critical infrastructure increasingly becoming monitored in IoT applications, and given that OmniMetrix monitors all major brands of critical equipment, OmniMetrix believes it is well-positioned as a competitive participant in this market.

Sales of OmniMetrix monitoring systems include the sale of equipment and of monitoring services. Revenue (and related costs) associated with sale of equipment are recorded to deferred revenue (and deferred charges) upon shipment for PG and CP monitoring units. Revenue and related costs with respect to the sale of equipment are recognized over the estimated life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years. Revenues from the prepayment of monitoring fees (generally paid twelve months in advance) are initially recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt of payment from the customer and then amortized to revenue over the monitoring service period.

*Revenue.*Revenue increased by approximately $46,000, or 3%, from approximately $1,705,000 in the first quarter of 2021 to approximately $1,751,000 in the first quarter of 2022. OmniMetrix’s increased revenue during the quarter was primarily attributable to increased hardware and accessories sales, which increased approximately $64,000, or 9%, from approximately $697,000 in the first quarter of 2021 to approximately $761,000 in the first quarter of 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded approximately $112,000 in revenue from the sale of custom TG Pro units that are designed to large customer specifications and monitored by the customer and thus the revenue was not deferred. We did not have any custom unit orders in the three months ended March 31, 2022. The hardware revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2021, excluding the revenue from the sale of the custom units, was approximately $585,000; thus, the increase in hardware revenue excluding the custom units was approximately 30%. This increase was due to an increase in the number of TG-2 and Hero-2 units sold during the first quarter of 2022. Monitoring revenue decreased by approximately $18,000, or 2%, from approximately $1,008,000 in the first quarter of 2021 to approximately $990,000 in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in monitoring revenue was due to the impact of the connections that dropped off as a result of the sunsetting 3G technology.

As discussed above, OmniMetrix has two reportable segments, PG and CP. Approximately $1,445,000 of $1,751,000 in revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022, was generated by PG activities and approximately $306,000 was generated by CP activities. This represents a decrease in revenue from PG activities of approximately $13,000, or 1%, from approximately $1,458,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2021, and an increase in revenue from CP activities of approximately $59,000, or 24%, from approximately $247,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2021. As noted above, the decrease in PG revenue was due to approximately $112,000 in revenue from the sale of custom designed units in the first quarter of 2021 that did not recur in the first quarter of 2022, in addition to the impact of the PG connections that dropped off in the first quarter of 2022 as a result of sunsetting 3G technology.

GrossProfit. Gross profit during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was approximately $1,258,000, reflecting a gross margin of 72% on revenue, compared with a gross profit during the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $1,210,000, reflecting a gross margin of 72%. Due to the increase in manufacturing component costs as a result of supply chain constraints, gross margin on hardware revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 45% compared to 49% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This was offset by an increase in the gross margin on monitoring revenue which was 92% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 86% during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

R&Dexpense. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, R&D expense was $198,000 and $178,000, respectively. The increase in R&D expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022 of approximately $20,000 is related to salary increases of our engineering team effective September 1, 2021, the continued development of next-generation PG and CP products, and exploration into new possible product lines. We expect a moderate increase in R&D expense for the remainder of 2022 as we continue to work on certain initiatives to redesign products and expand product lines to increase the level of innovation.

Selling,general and administrative expense. SG&A expense in the first three months of 2022 reflected an increase of approximately $176,000, or 17%, as compared to the first three months of 2021. OmniMetrix’s SG&A expense increased approximately $127,000, or 17%, from approximately $765,000 in the first three months of 2021 to approximately $892,000 in the first three months of 2022. This increase was primarily due to an increase of approximately (i) $73,000 in personnel expenses, (ii) $26,000 in travel and trade show expenses, (iii) $15,000 in technology consulting fees, and (iv) $13,000 in amortization of sales commissions. Corporate SG&A expense increased approximately $49,000, or 20%, from approximately $241,000 in the first three months of 2021 to approximately $290,000 in the first three months of 2022. This increase was due to an increase of approximately (i) $26,000 in audit fees, (ii) $14,000 in stock compensation expense and (iii) $9,000 in other public company expenses.

Netincome (loss) attributable to Acorn Energy. We recognized a net loss attributable to Acorn shareholders of approximately $123,000 in the first three months of 2022 compared to net income attributable to Acorn shareholders of approximately $20,000 in the first three months of 2021. Our loss in the three months ended March 31, 2022 is comprised of net income at OmniMetrix of approximately $168,000, less corporate expense of approximately $290,000, offset by approximately $1,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our income in OmniMetrix. Our net income during the three months ended March 31, 2021 is comprised of net income at OmniMetrix of approximately $263,000 less corporate expenses of approximately $241,000 offset by approximately $2,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our income from OmniMetrix.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

At March 31, 2022, we had a negative working capital of approximately $202,000. Our working capital includes approximately $1,784,000 of cash and deferred revenue of approximately $3,652,000. Such deferred revenue does not require significant cash outlay for the revenue to be recognized.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our OmniMetrix subsidiary provided approximately $511,000 from its operations, while our corporate headquarters used approximately $290,000 during the same period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we invested approximately $157,000 in technology including user-interface development and design of a cloud server environment as well as investments in new hardware and software upgrades. In addition, we had other capital expenditures of approximately $2,000 related to minor leasehold improvements.

OtherLiquidity Matters

OmniMetrix owes Acorn approximately $4,054,000 for loans, accrued interest and expenses advanced to it by Acorn. OmniMetrix made repayments to Acorn of $275,000 in the first quarter of 2022 offset by interest, dividends and other advances of approximately $113,000 in the aggregate.

As of May 11, 2022, we had cash of approximately $1,335,000. We believe that such cash, plus the cash generated from operations, will provide sufficient liquidity to finance the operating activities of Acorn and OmniMetrix at their current level of operations for the foreseeable future and for the twelve months from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in particular. We may, at some point, elect to obtain a new line of credit or other source of financing to fund additional investments in the business.

ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

COVID-19Risk

TheCOVID-19 pandemic could negatively affect various aspects of our business, including our workforce and supply chain, and make it moredifficult and expensive to meet our obligations to our customers, and could result in reduced demand from our customers.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic caused governments around the world to implement quarantines of certain geographic areas and implement significant restrictions on travel. Several governments also implemented work restrictions that prohibit many employees from going to work, both around the world as well as in certain jurisdictions in the United States. At this time, it is unclear if foreign governments or U.S. federal, state or local governments will further extend any of the current restrictions or if further restrictions will be put into place. In addition, many countries, including the United States, have placed significant bans on international travel. It is possible that restrictions or bans on domestic travel may be implemented by U.S. federal, state or local governments. As a result of the pandemic, businesses can be shut down, supply chains can be interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable, and individuals can become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work and/or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions. OmniMetrix is considered an essential business due to the fact that it provides infrastructure support to both government and commercial sectors and across key industries, so it has not been forced to shut down to date.

Governmental mandates may require forced shutdowns of our facilities for extended or indefinite periods. In addition, the pandemic could adversely affect our workforce resulting in serious health issues and absenteeism. The pandemic could also substantially interfere with general commercial activity related to our supply chain and customer base, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, business, or prospects. Some of the electronic devices and hardware we purchase, like antennas, radios, and GPS modules are very specific to our application; there are not likely to be practical alternatives. In some cases, our circuit boards were designed around specific electronic hardware that met our specifications. We are working closely with our contract manufacturers and suppliers in order to mitigate as much as possible the risks to our supply chain for these critical devices and hardware, including identifying any lead-time issues and any potential alternate sources. We are also examining all currently open purchase orders in an effort to identify whether we need to issue additional orders to secure product that is critical, already has questionable lead times and/or is unique to our requirements.

Concentrationsof Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. Our cash was deposited with a U.S. bank and amounted to approximately $1,784,000 at March 31, 2022. We do not believe there is significant risk of non-performance by these counterparties. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we did not have any customers that represented more than 10% of the total invoiced sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, one customer represented approximately 11% of total invoiced sales. Approximately 10% of the accounts receivable at March 31, 2022 was due from one customer who pays its receivables over usual credit periods. As of May 11, 2022, we have collected the full outstanding amount of approximately $84,000 due from this customer as of March 31, 2022. Credit risk with respect to the balance of trade receivables is generally diversified due to the number of entities comprising our customer base.

FairValue of Financial Instruments

Fair values of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are estimated to approximate their book values due to the short maturity of such investments.

Evaluationof Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

As noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, we employ a decentralized internal control methodology, coupled with management’s oversight, whereby our OmniMetrix subsidiary is responsible for mitigating its risks to financial reporting by implementing and maintaining effective control policies and procedures and subsequently translating that respective risk mitigation up and through to the parent level and to our external financial statements. In addition, as our operating subsidiary is not large enough to effectively mitigate certain risks by segregating incompatible duties, management must employ compensating mechanisms throughout our company in a manner that is feasible within the constraints in which it operates.

The material weaknesses management identified were caused by an insufficient complement of resources at our OmniMetrix subsidiary and limited IT system capabilities, such that individual control policies and procedures at the subsidiary could not be implemented, maintained, or remediated when and where necessary. As a result, a majority of the significant process areas management identified for our OmniMetrix subsidiary had one or more material weaknesses present.

Changesin Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
