Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and, except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

1.Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company” or "Eos") designs, develops, manufactures, and sells innovative energy storage solutions for utility-scale microgrid, and commercial & industrial (“C&I”) applications. Eos has developed a broad range of intellectual property with multiple patents ranging from the unique battery chemistry, mechanical product design, energy block configuration and software operating system (“Battery Management System” or “BMS”). The BMS software uses proprietary, Eos-developed algorithms and includes ambient and battery temperature sensors, as well as voltage and electrical current sensors for the electrical strings and the system. Eos focuses on developing and selling safe, reliable, long-lasting and low-cost turn-key alternating current (“AC”) integrated systems using Eos’ direct current (“DC”) battery energy storage system. The Company has a manufacturing facility in Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania to produce DC energy blocks with an integrated BMS. The Company’s primary applications focus on integrating battery storage solutions with: (1) renewable energy systems that are connected to the utility power grid; (2) renewable energy systems that are not connected to the utility power grid; (3) energy systems utilized to relieve congestion; and (4) storage systems to assist C&I customers in reducing their peak energy usage or participating in the utilities ancillary and demand response markets. The Company’s major market is North America with opportunistic growth opportunities in Europe, Oceania, Africa, and Asia.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “Eos,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in these notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements refers to Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Liquidity and Going Concern
Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to perform a two-step analysis of its ability to continue as a going concern: It must first evaluate whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (Step 1). If the Company concludes that substantial doubt is raised, it is also required to consider whether the Company’s plans alleviate the substantial doubt (Step 2).
The Company continues to scale its operations, including deploying additional capital for capacity expansion to meet current customer demand. To date, the Company has incurred significant recurring losses and net operating cash outflows from operations. Operating expenses consist primarily of costs related to the Company’s research and development, sales activities, and recurring general and administrative expenses. Management and the Company’s Board of Directors expect the Company will eventually reach a scale of profitability through the sale of battery energy storage systems and other complementary products and services, and therefore, the Company believes the current stage of the Company’s lifecycle justifies continued intensive investment in the development and launch of products. Accordingly, the Company expects to continue to incur significant losses and net operating cash outflows from operations for the foreseeable future and to continue to require additional capital to fund the Company’s operations and obligations as they become due, including funding that is necessary to continue to scale up the Company’s operations to allow for the delivery of backlog, to secure additional order opportunities for its battery storage systems, and to continue to invest in research and development.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had total assets of $138,481 , including cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $51,047 (refer to Note 4, Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash), total liabilities of $226,820 , which includes the total amounts owed on the Company’s outstanding convertible notes payable of $78,743 and long-term debt of $84,775 (refer to Note 12, Borrowings) and a total accumulated deficit of $589,727 , which is primarily attributable to the significant recurring losses the Company has accumulated since inception. The Company used cash in operating activities of $159,129 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
The Company has historically relied on outside capital to fund its cost structure and expects this reliance to continue for the foreseeable future until the Company reaches profitability through its planned revenue generating activities.

1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company obtained the following additional financing: (a) the Company borrowed $94,681 under a Senior Secured Term Loan agreement (the “Term Loan”) to fund the Company’s manufacturing capacity, repay an existing outstanding note, and for general corporate purposes; (b) the Company borrowed an additional $4,216 under the equipment financing facility with Trinity Capital, Inc.; and (c) the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”) with respect to an at-the-market offering program. Under the at-the-market-offering program, the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, having an aggregate offering price up to $100,000 through Cowen as sales agent and/or principal. The Company will pay Cowen a commission equal to 3.0 % of the gross sales proceeds of any shares of the Company’s common stock sold through Cowen. In the third quarter, under this at-the-market program, the Company issued and sold a total of 12,067,575 shares and raised $30,040 ($29,139 net of commissions) at an average selling price of $2.49 per share.
The Term Loan agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, which limit the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, make restricted payments, including cash dividends on its common stock, make certain investments, loans and advances, enter into mergers and acquisitions, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of its assets, enter into transactions with its affiliates and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, among other restrictions (refer to Note 12, Borrowings). The Company was in compliance with all Term Loan covenants as of September 30, 2022.
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a $200,000 common stock Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (“SEPA”) with YA II PN, Ltd. an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors, which was subsequently amended on June 13, 2022. The SEPA gives the Company the right, but not the obligation, to sell up to $200,000 of common equity to Yorkville at times of the Company’s choosing during the two-year term of the agreement. The SEPA provides for shares to be issued to Yorkville at a discounted price of 97.0 % of the 3-day volume-weighted average price following notification to Yorkville that the Company seeks to draw upon the facility (refer to Note 11, Related Party Transactions and Note 12, Borrowings). Through the date of this filing, funds raised under the SEPA were $12,500 ; the Company did not utilize the SEPA in the third quarter.
As previously reported, the Company has moved through Part I of the application under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Guarantee Solicitation for Applications for Renewable Energy Projects and Efficient Energy Projects (the “DOE Loan Program”) and submitted an application under Part II of the loan program in May 2022. In September 2022, the Company was invited to the due diligence stage of the DOE Loan Program. During this stage, the Company and the DOE will work to negotiate a term sheet setting out the principal terms and conditions of the loan. This work provides the DOE the foundation to advance the loan towards a conditional commitment. However, the DOE invitation to the due diligence stage is not an assurance that the DOE will offer a conditional commitment, or that the Company will secure a loan under the DOE Loan Program. The Company is seeking additional capital through securities offerings, other financing arrangements and grants to raise additional funding to support its operations.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to utilize the full value under the Sales Agreement with Cowen, utilize the SEPA to its full $200,000 capacity, successfully complete the DOE Loan Program, or otherwise be able to obtain new funding from other sources on terms acceptable to the Company, on a timely basis, or at all.
As of the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, management concluded that the Company did not have sufficient capital on hand to support its current cost structure for twelve months after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company expects to continue to incur significant losses and net operating cash outflows from operations for the foreseeable future. The Company expects to continue to require additional capital to fund operations and meet its obligations as they become due. The Company believes these uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company may have to significantly delay, scale back or ultimately discontinue the development or commercialization of its product and/or consider a sale or other strategic transactions.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Foreign Currency
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries use the local currency of their respective countries as their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The operating results of foreign operations are translated at weighted average exchange rates. The related translation gains or losses are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ (deficit) equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, which were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, are included as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), using the transition method introduced by ASU 2018-11, which does not require revisions to comparative periods. The adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of lease assets and lease liabilities of $3,662 and $4,465 , respectively, as of January 1, 2021. The difference between the lease assets and lease liabilities primarily relates to deferred rent recorded in accordance with the previous leasing guidance. The new standard did not materially impact the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss or statements of cash flows.
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (“Topic 326”), and the subsequent amendments. The standard sets forth an expected credit loss model which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Acquisition
On April 8, 2021, the Company entered into a unit purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Holtec Power, Inc. (“Holtec”). In accordance with the terms and conditions of which the Company purchased from Holtec the remaining 51 % interest in HI-POWER, LLC (“Hi-Power”) that was not already owned by the Company. Hi-Power was incorporated as a joint venture between the Company and Holtec in 2019. In connection with the transaction, the Company also entered into a transition services agreement and a sublease with Holtec. The transaction closed on April 9, 2021. Following the consummation of the transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Transactions”), Hi-Power became a 100 % indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the obligations of the parties under the Hi-Power joint venture terminated.
The aggregate purchase price of $25,000 shall be paid pursuant to the following schedule: $5,000 10,283 . Total payments to Holtec under this Purchase Agreement will be $35,283 . During the third quarter of 2022, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under the Purchase Agreement, which resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment of $942 .
The fair value of these payments was $33,474 at the Acquisition Date and included $32,750 allocated to the termination of a pre-existing agreement with Holtec and $724 allocated to the acquisition.
The obligations and rights of both parties under the pre-existing Joint Venture Agreement were terminated at the time of acquisition and $32,750 of the fair value of the consideration transferred was allocated to the termination of the agreement, which resulted in a loss on the pre-existing agreement of $— and $30,368 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
Prior to the acquisition of the remaining 51 % ownership interest in Hi-Power, the Company accounted for its initial 49 % ownership interest in Hi-Power as an unconsolidated joint venture under the equity method of accounting. In connection with the acquisition of the remaining 51 % ownership interest in Hi-Power, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Hi-Power, and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations of Hi-Power have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.
The consideration transferred for the 100 % ownership interest in connection with the acquisition, net of intercompany balances between the Company and Hi-Power, totaled $418 , of which $205 represents the fair value of the Company’s previously held 49 % ownership interest in Hi-Power. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, the Company remeasured the previously held 49 % ownership interest in Hi-Power at its acquisition date fair value. As of the acquisition date, a loss of $7,480 was recognized in earnings for the remeasurement of the previously held 49 % ownership interest.

The Term Loan agreement provided for an aggregate commitment of $94,681 during the third quarter of 2022. Any additional funding under the Term Loan facility is at the discretion of the agent and lenders. The Term Loan is scheduled to mature on the earlier of (i) July 29, 2026, and (ii) 91 days prior to the current maturity date of the 2021 Convertible Notes of June 30, 2026. The Company has the right at any time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part in an amount of not less than $500 .
The Company agreed to use the proceeds from the Term Loan to (i) fund growth investments and for general corporate purposes including corporate-level research and development investments, (ii) expand the manufacturing facility of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Hi-Power, in the Turtle Creek, Pittsburgh area in Pennsylvania, (iii) redeem in full the Company’s existing indebtedness to Holtec Power, Inc. and (iv) pay certain insurance premiums, interest reserves, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Term Loan agreement.
The outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan bears interest, at the applicable margin plus, at the Company’s election, either (i) the benchmark secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), which is a per annum rate equal to (y) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 0.2616 %, or (ii) the alternate base rate (“ABR”), which is a per annum rate equal to the greatest of (x) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Term Loan), (y) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 0.5 % and (z) the SOFR. The applicable margin under the Credit Agreement is 8.5 % per annum with respect to SOFR loans, and 7.5 % per annum with respect to ABR loans. Interest on the Term Loan accrues at a variable interest rate, and interest payments are due quarterly. The Company may elect to convert SOFR Loans to ABR (and ABR Loans to SOFR).

Any repayment of principal prior to the second anniversary of the issuance date is subject to a call premium. The call premium is equal to the present value of all interest payments due through June 30, 2024, calculated using a discount rate equal to the applicable treasury rate as of the repayment date plus 50 basis points. Also, there are no embedded derivatives from the Term Loan that required bifurcation.
Debt issuance costs of $12,607 and fees of $1,898 were paid to the Lenders in connection with the Credit Agreement. These fees shall be amortized, utilizing the effective interest method through loan maturity. The amortization shall be included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt issuance costs include credit wrap insurance policy premiums in the amount of $11,724 . The credit wrap insurance provides the Lender with a guarantee on the Company’s credit risk. In the event the Term Loan remains outstanding on the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date, the Company will be required to pay additional insurance premiums equal to 3 %, 3 %, and 2 %, respectively of the Term Loan balance then outstanding. At closing, the Company accrued $5,231 for the present value of the future credit wrap insurance policy premiums.
On the closing date, the Company also entered into a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. The Term Loans issued are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries other than the Company’s equity interests in Hi-Power and assets of Hi-Power, and are guaranteed by the Company's subsidiaries other than Hi-Power. Additionally, interest is required to be escrowed in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the four immediately following interest payments owed on the Loans which was $10,731 at September 30, 2022. This escrowed and restricted cash is presented on a separate line item on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as long-term restricted cash.
The agreements also contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. They limit the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, make restricted payments, including cash dividends on its common stock, make certain investments, loans and advances, enter into mergers and acquisitions, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of its assets, enter into transactions with its affiliates and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, among other restrictions. Furthermore, the limitation on the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness also (i) limits the amount of Pre-Advance Loans that the Company may have outstanding at any time to $15,000 under the SEPA and (ii) requires the payment of principal and interest in kind on each of the Pre-Advance Loans (if any) and the 2021 Convertible Notes. The Company was in compliance with all Term Loan covenants as of September 30, 2022.
The effective annual interest rate of the Term Loan is 19.2 %.

14. Leases (cont.)
Lessor
The Company leases battery energy storage systems to one customer with a 20 -year term through sales-type leases. Leases offered by the Company include purchase options during the lease term with a bargain purchase option at the end of the term. At the time of accepting a lease that qualifies as a sales-type lease, the Company records the gross amount of lease payments receivable, estimated residual value of the leased equipment and unearned finance income. The unearned finance income is recognized interest income over the lease term using the interest method.
15. Fair Value Measurement
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, private placement warrants, accounts receivable, notes receivable, contract assets, accounts payable, note payable, convertible notes payable — related party, contract liabilities and long-term debt.
Accounting standards establish a hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Accounting standards require financial assets and liabilities to be classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and the exercise of this judgment may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, contract assets, contract liabilities and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
The table below summarizes the fair values of certain liabilities that are included within the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, and their designations among the three fair value measurement categories:

16. Commitments and Contingencies
Lease Commitments
The Company has lease commitments under lease agreements. Refer to Note 14, Leases, for additional information.
Firm Purchase Commitment
To ensure adequate and timely supply of raw material for production, the Company, from time to time, enters into non-cancellable purchase and service contracts with vendors. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had open inventory purchase commitments of $127 under these contracts.
Minimum Volume Commitment
In June 2022, the Company entered into a long-term supply agreement with a minimum volume commitment with a third party, which provides services to process certain raw materials. Any purchase order issued under this supply agreement will be non-cancellable. To the extent the Company fails to order the guaranteed minimum volume defined in the contract at the end of the term, the Company is required to pay the counterparty an amount equal to the shortfall, if any, multiplied by a fee. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had open purchase commitments of $501 under this agreement. The Company believes that the probability of failing to meet the minimum volume commitment is remote and no shortfall penalty has been accrued as of September 30, 2022.
Legal Proceedings
On July 7, 2022, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and Vincent Icolari (“Relator”) to resolve the previously disclosed investigation by the DOJ for underpayment of certain custom duties in past years in connection with imports of batteries and battery components manufactured abroad. The investigation resulted from a qui tam lawsuit (the “Civil Action”) filed by the Relator in December 2019 alleging violations of the False Claims Act.

Upon receipt of such payments, the DOJ and the Relator have agreed to release the Company from civil monetary and administrative claims under the False Claims Act and the Relator has agreed to release the Company from any claims related to the Civil Action. The Company has fully settled this liability as of September 30, 2022.
As previously disclosed, in April 2022, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). On August 29, 2022, the Company received a letter from the SEC informing the Company that the SEC’s investigation relating to the subpoena has concluded without any recommendation for enforcement action as to the Company.

17. Stock-Based Compensation (cont.)
In 2022, the Company reserved an additional 2,537,866 shares for the Amended and Restated 2020 Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 536,670 and 2,282,906 shares, respectively, remain for future issuance. Options generally have a term of to ten years and vest over periods ranging from three months to five years . RSUs generally vest over periods from to four years . During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted 75,000 RSUs and 2,000,000 options with performance and service conditions. Stock compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the award vesting term. For awards with performance conditions, compensation expense is recognized using an accelerated attribution method over the vesting period. The performance conditions primarily relate to achievement of sales and financing targets. As of September 30, 2022, there were 1,950,000 and 60,000 performance-based stock options and RSUs, respectively, all of which are expected to vest in the next four years .
As of September 30, 2022, total unrecognized compensation expense was $20,101 of which $18,182 was attributable to unvested RSUs and $1,919 was attributable to unvested stock options. Compensation expense for these unvested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 0.7 years for stock options, and 1.7 years for RSUs.
The weighted average assumptions used to determine the fair value of options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:
| 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||
| Volatility | % | % | |||||||||
| Risk free interest rate | % | % | |||||||||
| Expected life (years) | |||||||||||
| Dividend yield | % | % | |||||||||
The RSUs issued were valued at the stock price of the Company on the date of grant.
The weighted average grant date fair value of all options granted was $0.68 and $8.08 per option for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
18. Income Taxes
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, income tax expense was $110 and $45 , respectively, related to taxable earnings from the Company’s foreign operations. There was no
The Company estimates and applies the annual effective tax rate to its ordinary earnings each interim period. Any significant unusual or infrequent items, if any, are not included in the estimation of the annual effective tax rate. Rather, these items and their related income tax expense are separately stated in the interim period in which they occur. The quarterly estimate of the annual effective tax rate and related tax expense is subject to variation due to a multitude of factors. Factors may include, but are not limited to, the inability to accurately predict the Company’s pre-tax and taxable income and loss.
At each balance sheet date, management assesses the likelihood that the Company will be able to realize its deferred tax assets. Management considered all available positive and negative evidence in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. The realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character and in the appropriate taxing jurisdiction during the future periods in which the related temporary differences become deductible. Management has determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to utilize its U.S. deferred tax assets at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to cumulative losses. Therefore, the Company has a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets.

18. Income Taxes (cont.)
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would not affect the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations. The Company is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction, and none of the uncertain tax positions are expected to reverse within the next 12 months.
The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions, as well as Italy and India. The Company expects the goodwill recognized as part of the acquisition is amortizable for U.S. income tax purposes. The open tax years for federal returns is 2018 and forward, and open tax years for state returns is generally 2017 and forward. In addition, net operating losses generated in closed years and utilized in open years are subject to adjustment by the tax authorities.
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) into law. There are two major corporate tax provisions included in the Act. In general, the IRA creates a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) on any corporation that has (or has had) average annual “adjusted financial statement income” for a three-year period preceding the tax year that exceeds $1 billion. The CAMT is effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The IRA also imposes on publicly traded U.S. corporations a 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of their stock. The excise tax is effective for stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect the aforementioned provisions in the IRA to have any material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
IRA features significant economic incentives for both energy storage customers and manufacturers that begin for projects placed in service after December 31, 2022. Customers placing new energy storage facilities in service after this date will be allowed to claim at least a thirty percent investment tax credit under certain conditions. The Company expects the enactment of the IRA will be favorable for the overall business.
The IRA includes economic incentives for energy storage manufacturers starting in 2023 that can be claimed on battery components manufactured in the U.S. These incentives can be monetized by direct payment from the Internal Revenue Service for up to five consecutive years, after which these tax credits can be sold to other companies for cash. The Company is still assessing the overall impact and applicability of the tax credit provisions included within the IRA.

Earnings (loss) Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating EPS on a diluted basis. As the Company incurred a net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the potential dilutive shares from stock options, restricted stock units, warrants, and convertible redeemable notes were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented. Therefore, basic and diluted EPS are computed using the same number of weighted average shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, including the financial statements and notes thereto.
Business Overview
The Company was originally incorporated in Delaware on June 3, 2019 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name B. Riley Principal Merger Corp. II., in order to acquire, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination. Upon the completion of the business combination on November 16, 2020, the Company changed its name to “Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc.” The Company’s common shares started trading under the ticker NASDAQ: EOSE on November 16, 2020.
On April 9, 2021, the Company acquired, from Holtec, the 51% interest in Hi-Power that was not already owned by the Company. Following the consummation of the transaction, Hi-Power became a 100% indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the obligations of the parties under the Hi-Power joint venture terminated.
Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company” or “Eos”) designs, develops, manufactures, and markets innovative energy storage solutions for utility-scale, microgrid, and commercial & industrial (“C&I”) applications. Eos developed a broad range of intellectual property with multiple patents covering unique battery chemistry, mechanical product design, energy block configuration and a software operating system (Battery Management System). The Battery Management System (“BMS”) software uses proprietary Eos-developed algorithms and includes ambient and battery temperature sensors, as well as voltage and electric current sensors for the electrical strings and the system. Eos focuses on designing, developing, producing and selling safe, reliable, long-lasting and low-cost turn-key alternating current (“AC”) integrated systems using Eos’ direct current (“DC”) Battery Energy Storage System (“BESS”). The Company’s primary applications focus on integrating battery storage solutions with: (1) renewable energy systems that are connected to the utility power grid; (2) renewable energy systems that are not connected to the utility power grid; (3) storage systems utilized to relieve congestion; and (4) storage systems to assist C&I customers in reducing their peak energy usage or participating in the utilities ancillary and demand response markets. The Company has a manufacturing facility in Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania to produce DC energy blocks with an integrated BMS. The Company’s primary market is North America with opportunistic growth opportunities in Europe, Oceania, Africa, and Asia.

Significant Factors Affecting Operating Results
Commercialization
The Company achieved third-party product safety certification from Underwriter Laboratories (“UL”) for the Company’s current energy storage system in August 2021. The Company is preparing to provide a Declaration of Conformity for the Company’s energy storage system for the European marketplace.
The Company continued to ramp up production of the current generation product and enhanced its factory testing protocols through September 30, 2022, to ensure that its battery energy storage systems will operate at expected and optimized performance.
The Company continues to invest in the design and development of the next generation product, the Eos Z3™ battery which builds off the same electro-chemistry that has not fundamentally changed for the better part of a decade. The Eos Z3™ battery is being designed to reduce cost and weight and improves manufacturability and system performance. The Eos Z3™ product is currently in test and is expected to launch in 2023.
Some of the Company’s customers may experience project delays in connection with site selection and preparation, permitting procedures and establishing grid connections. These delays have impacted, and may, from time to time, continue to impact the timing of the Company’s deliveries and therefore, adversely impact the Company’s results of operations.
Market Trends and Competition
The Company expects the global energy storage market to grow given the current geopolitical and economic environment. Based on recent industry studies, the global energy storage market will grow at an estimated 30% compound annual growth rate between 2022 and 2030. Simply stated, the world needs more energy. The Company believes the world wants to generate that energy with sustainable sources, but this objective creates imbalances in the existing energy grid. Managing and mitigating those imbalances will require multiple energy storage technologies to provide safe and reliable power. Until now, most energy storage systems have been in short durations, meaning they have reliably provided power for less than four hours. The Company believes the future will require longer duration (6-12 hour) battery energy storage systems that provide the flexibility to match intermittency and congestion. The Company believes the storage opportunity is large (the projected Total Addressable Market = 115 GWh), and the numbers are big (every 1% share = $250M). The Znyth™ battery is composed of five earth-abundant, readily available raw materials with mature supply chains that allow the Company to drive cost down as it scales up production.
The Company believes the Russian-Ukrainian war has added more urgency to global efforts for energy security as the reliance on Russian gas has led European policymakers to take action to accelerate the transition to alternative sources of power, including clean energy, and to increase stationary energy storage deployments. The Company also believes the recent significant increase in energy prices will be a catalyst for global efforts to decarbonize the grid, which is critical for meeting climate change goals.
The Company believes Lithium-ion (“Li-ion”) currently has over 95% market share in the stationary energy storage market. Li-ion’s prices for energy storage systems have increased significantly as final product availability remains extremely limited due to the lack of availability and significant increases in cost of Li-ion battery raw material components, including lithium carbonate, nickel, and cobalt as well as the high demand of Li-ion batteries driven primarily by mobile device applications. The Company believes it is manufacturing the first commercially available battery system that is not based on Li-ion chemistry. The Company anticipates its battery energy storage system using Znyth™ technology will gradually take market share of the stationary storage market. This considers its unique operating characteristics, including a 100% depth of discharge capability, flattened degradation curve and a 3- to 12-hour duration, as well as other characteristics related to safety and the cost of operating and maintaining its battery energy storage system. The Company’s ability to successfully deploy its battery energy storage system technology and gain market share in the energy storage market will be important to the growth of the Company’s business.
35
Regulatory Landscape
In North America, geographic distribution of energy storage deployment has been driven by regulatory policy with both federal and state level programs contributing to an acceleration in development of energy storage. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) could have a significant impact on the renewable energy industry, mostly in the form of incentives and credits. The Company believes the IRA will foster long-term stability for its customers and for domestic manufacturers of energy storage. The law includes a new mechanism for tax-exempt and state and local government entities, rural electric cooperatives and Indian tribes to benefit from the same tax credits that encourage private companies to invest in energy storage. Historically, only taxpaying entities were able to benefit from tax credits for renewable energy tax incentives, but this legislation comes closer to creating a level playing field between taxpaying and non-taxpaying entities and opens the door for local governments to also access these incentives.
Tax-exempt and state and local government entities, rural electric cooperatives and Indian tribes that acquire new energy storage facilities will have a direct payment option in lieu of tax credits, if certain conditions are met, for certain tax years starting after December 31, 2022. The IRA also allows an investment tax credit for 30% to 50% of the cost of new storage facilities to be claimed in the year such facilities are placed in service. There is a base tax credit of 30% that may increase to as high as 50%, depending on the location and amount of domestic content. It may even reach 60% or 70% for batteries added to community solar and small wind projects of less than 5 MW in capacity that are located on Indian land or serve low-income communities. Qualifying elections will result in treating the applicable entity as if it had paid an amount of tax equal to the tax credit, thus potentially generating “refunds” of the credit amounts from the U.S. Treasury. Storage facilities owned by such eligible entities on which construction starts after 2023 must satisfy domestic content requirements to qualify for full direct payments. The Company believes this legislation provides a significant incentive for its customers who work with local governments and municipal utilities that finance clean energy projects. There are a number of uncertainties regarding these rules and their application to applicable entities, and the IRS and Treasury have requested public comments to evaluate future guidance on these and other questions.
Recent regulatory developments supporting the energy storage market include:
•New Jersey plans to initiate an energy storage incentive program totaling $180 million over three years;
•Michigan created a roadmap for the future of storage in the state, including a proposed 4 GW of energy storage by 2040 deployment target;
•Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s six-year action plan called for 3.5 GW of new renewable sources by 2027, including a 4-hour standalone and paired battery storage systems;
•California’s 2022-2023 budget includes $380 million for long duration storage as part of a $2 billion Clean Energy Funding Plan. The California Energy Storage Alliance and Strategy Consulting previously estimated that California needs 45+ GW of long duration storage in order to reach the state’s goal of 100% renewable electricity by 2045; and
•New York doubled its energy storage target from 3 GW by 2030 to 6 GW while keeping the same timeframe. Previous studies indicated the state will need at least 15 GW of storage by 2040 to support zero-emission goals.
Economic Impacts
The Company is currently operating in a period of global economic and geopolitical uncertainty, which has been exacerbated by the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict is highly unpredictable, the conflict in Ukraine has led to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, an increase in cybersecurity incidents as well as additional supply chain disruptions. Additionally, Russia’s actions have led to sanctions and other penalties being levied by the United States, the European Union, and other countries, as well as other public and private actors and companies, against Russia and certain other geographic areas. The Company is continuing to monitor the situation in Ukraine, including its global effects, and assessing its potential impact on its business, including the timing of its sales as certain customers purchase safety stock for their own supply chains. Although the Company’s business has not been materially impacted by the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine as of the date of this filing, it is impossible to predict the extent to which of the Company’s operations, or those of the Company’s customers or suppliers, will be impacted, or the ways in which the conflict may impact the Company’s business, cash flows or results of operations.

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak has had an adverse effect on the Company's workforce and operations, as well as the operations of its customers, distributors, suppliers and contractors. Management continues to monitor for a potential resurgence of COVID-19 and remains focused on maintaining protective measures to ensure the safety, health and welfare of the Company’s workforce. A potential resurgence of COVID-19 may impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations in the future. Please see the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The U.S. economy is experiencing broad and rapid inflation, rising interest rates, logistic delays, supply chain issues for certain raw materials and service and labor constraints due to, among other factors, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and, more recently, the war in Ukraine and threats of a domestic rail strike. These factors have begun to impact the Company and its supply chain, and the full extent of the impacts are not ascertainable. The Company has experienced part shortages and increased lead times for certain parts used in its manufacturing process. These impacts are likely to persist through 2023 and possibly beyond 2023. Management cannot predict the inflationary impact on the Company’s manufacturing costs or the impact on the Company’s supply chain.
Company Highlights
•In April 2022, the Company announced that it entered into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Original SEPA”) with YA II PN, Ltd., an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors, which was subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto on June 13, 2022 (the “Amendment” and, together with the Original SEPA, the “SEPA”). The SEPA gives the Company the right, but not the obligation, to sell up to $200 million of common equity to Yorkville during the two-year term of the agreement. Until now, the Company has raised $12.5 million under the SEPA.
•In June 2022, Bridgelink Commodities, LLC increased the Bridgelink master supply agreement to 1 GWh of energy storage systems for deliveries over the next three years with an incremental order value of $181 million for new project installations and also issued a separate 40 MWh order valued at $13 million.

The Company generates revenues from the delivery of its battery energy storage systems and service-related solutions. The Company expects revenues to increase as it scales production to meet customer demand.
Revenue increased by $5.3 million, or 745% from $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Revenue increased by $13.8 million, or 921% from $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $15.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company began delivering its energy storage systems in 2021. The increase in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by the Company’s increase in production and delivery of its energy storage systems and, to a lesser extent, other equipment, from backlog compared to the same period of 2021.
Management is seeing a deferral of certain customer projects out of 2022 and into 2023 and beyond as a result of the recent passage of the IRA. The IRA includes subsidies for both energy storage customers and manufacturers which are effective for projects placed in service after December 31, 2022. The Company’s customers will significantly benefit by deferring such projects until after December 31, 2022. As a result, the Company is proactively working with certain customers to defer projects out of 2022 and into 2023.

This loss was a result of the remeasurement of its 49% ownership in Hi-Power on April 9, 2021 due to the acquisition of the remaining 51% interest previously held by Holtec. Since Hi-Power was fully acquired during the second quarter of 2021, there is no loss on equity method investment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The 2021 Convertible Notes Payable - Related Party issued in July 2021 contained a conversion feature that is accounted for as an embedded derivative and remeasured at its fair value at each balance sheet date. The change in the derivative’s fair value of $10.3 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, from the same 2021 periods, is largely a result of the changes in the Company’s stock price.
The decrease in the warrants’ fair value of $0.8 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, from the same 2021 periods was due to the change in fair value of the private placement Warrants classified as liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company continued to scale its operations, including deploying additional capital for capacity expansion to meet current customer demand through September 30, 2022. To date, the Company has incurred significant recurring losses and net operating cash outflows from operations. Operating expenses consist primarily of costs related to the Company’s research and development, sales activities, costs and recurring general and administrative expenses. Management and the Company’s Board of Directors expect the Company will eventually reach a scale of profitability through the sale of battery energy storage systems and other complementary products and services, and therefore, the Company believes the current stage of the Company’s lifecycle justifies continued intensive investment in the development and launch of products. Accordingly, the Company expects to continue to incur significant losses and net operating cash outflows from operations for the foreseeable future and to continue to require additional capital to fund the Company’s operations and obligations as they become due, including funding that is necessary to continue to scale up the Company’s operations to allow for the delivery of backlog, to secure additional order opportunities for its battery storage systems, and to continue to invest in research and development.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had total assets of $138.5 million, including total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $51.0 million, total liabilities of $226.8 million, which includes the total amounts owed on the Company’s outstanding convertible notes payable of $78.7 million, long-term debt of $84.8 million and a total accumulated deficit of $589.7 million, which is primarily attributable to the significant recurring losses the Company has accumulated since inception. The Company used cash in operating activities of $159.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to perform a two-step analysis of its ability to continue as a going concern: It must first evaluate whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (Step 1). If the Company concludes that substantial doubt is raised, it is also required to consider whether the Company’s plans alleviate the substantial doubt (Step 2).
42
The Company has historically relied on outside capital to fund its cost structure and expects this reliance to continue for the foreseeable future until the Company reaches profitability through its planned revenue generating activities. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company obtained the following additional financing: (a) the Company borrowed $94.7 million under a Term Loan agreement to fund the Company’s manufacturing capacity, repay an existing outstanding note, and for general corporate purposes, (b) borrowed an additional $4.2 million under the financing facility with Trinity Capital, Inc., and (c) the Company entered into the Sales Agreement with Cowen, with respect to an at-the-market offering program. Under the at-the-market-offering program, the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, having an aggregate offering price up to $100.00 million through Cowen as sales agent and/or principal. The Company will pay Cowen a commission equal to 3.0% of the gross sales proceeds of any of the Company’s common shares sold through Cowen. In the third quarter, the Company, under this at-the-market program, issued and sold a total of 12,067,575 shares and raised $30.0 million ($29.1 million net of commissions) at an average selling price of $2.49 per share.
The Term Loan agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. They limit the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, make restricted payments, including cash dividends on its common stock, make certain investments, loans and advances, enter into mergers and acquisitions, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of its assets, enter into transactions with its affiliates and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, among other restrictions, (refer to Note 12, Borrowings). The Company was in compliance with all Term Loan covenants as of September 30, 2022.
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a common stock Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (“SEPA”) with YA II PN, Ltd. an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors (“Yorkville”), which was subsequently amended on June 13, 2022. The SEPA gives the Company the right, but not the obligation, to sell up to $200.0 million of common equity to Yorkville at times of the Company’s choosing during the two-year term of the agreement. The SEPA provides for shares to be issued to Yorkville at a discounted price of 97.0% of the 3-day volume-weighted average price following notification to Yorkville that the Company seeks to draw upon the facility (refer to Note 11, Related Party Transactions and Note 12, Borrowings). The Company did not utilize the SEPA in the third quarter, and until now it has raised $12.5 million under the SEPA.
The Company continues to pursue various funding options to raise additional capital to support its operations. In May 2022, the Company moved through Part I of the application under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Guarantee Solicitation for Applications for Renewable Energy Projects (the “DOE Loan Program”), and submitted an application under Part II of the loan program. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company was invited to the due diligence stage of the DOE Loan Program. During this stage, the Company and the DOE will work to negotiate a term sheet setting out the principal terms and conditions of the DOE loan. This work provides the DOE with the foundation to advance the loan towards a conditional commitment. However, the DOE invitation to the due diligence stage is not an assurance that the DOE will offer a conditional commitment, or that the Company will secure a loan under the DOE Loan Program. The Company is seeking additional capital through securities offerings, other financing arrangements and grants to raise additional funding to support its operations.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to utilize the full value under the Sales Agreement with Cowen, utilize the SEPA to its full $200.0 million capacity, successfully complete the DOE Loan Program, or otherwise be able to obtain new funding from other sources on terms acceptable to the Company, on a timely basis, or at all.
As of the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, management concluded that the Company did not have sufficient capital on hand to support its current cost structure for twelve months after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company expects to continue to incur significant losses and net operating cash outflows from operations for the foreseeable future. The Company expects to continue to require additional capital to fund operations and meet its obligations as they become due. The Company believes these uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company may have to significantly delay, scale back or ultimately discontinue the development or commercialization of its product and/or consider a sale or other strategic transactions.
Financing Arrangements
Since the Company’s inception, the Company financed its operations primarily through funding received from the private placement of convertible notes, term debt, equipment financing, and the issuance of common and preferred units.
In November 2020, the Company received $142.3 million in connection with the consummation of the Merger and the private placement upon the Closing.
In July 2021, the Company received an initial $100.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of the 2021 Convertible Notes to Koch Industries (refer to Note 12, Borrowings).
43
In September 2021, the Company entered into a $25.0 million Equipment Financing Agreement with Trinity Capital, the proceeds of which were used to acquire certain equipment and other property, subject to Trinity's approval. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had drawn $11.2 million from this equipment financing agreement and the unused commitment of $13.8 million had expired (refer to Note 12, Borrowings).
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company received proceeds of $5.0 million from the issuance of shares under the SEPA between the Company and Yorkville, and net proceeds of $7.5 million from the issuance and sale of the Promissory Note to Yorkville under the supplemental agreement. In July 2022, Yorkville delivered six Investor Notices under the SEPA requiring the Company to issue and sell an aggregate of 3,393,663 shares of common stock at a price of $2.21 per share. The total purchase price of the shares of common stock was $7,500. The proceeds from the issuance of the shares were used to repay all outstanding amounts owed to Yorkville pursuant to the Promissory Note. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance of the Promissory Note was zero (refer to Note 12, Borrowings).
In July 2022, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with ACP Post Oak Credit I LLC, as lender, administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, “Atlas” or the “Lender”). The Term Loan agreement provided for an aggregate commitment of $94.7 million during the third quarter of 2022. Any additional funding under the Term Loan facility is at the discretion of the agent and lenders. The outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan bears interest at the applicable margin plus, at the Company’s election, either (i) the benchmark secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), which is a per annum rate equal to the greater of (y) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 0.2616%, or (ii) the alternate base rate (“ABR”), which is a per annum rate equal to the greatest of (x) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Term Loan), (y) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 0.5% and (z) the SOFR. The applicable margin under the Credit Agreement is 8.50% per annum with respect to SOFR loans, and 7.50% per annum with respect to ABR loans.). Interest on the Term Loan is due quarterly. The Company may elect to convert SOFR Loans to ABR (and ABR Loans to SOFR). Debt issuance costs of $12.6 million, and fees paid to the Lenders of $1.9 million were incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement. These fees shall be amortized utilizing the effective interest method through loan maturity. The amortization shall be included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt issuance costs include credit wrap insurance policy premiums in the amount of $11.7 million. The credit wrap insurance provides the Lender with a guarantee on the Company’s credit risk. In the event the Term Loan remains outstanding on the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date, the Company will be required to pay additional insurance premiums equal to 3%, 3%, and 2%, respectively of the Term Loan balance then outstanding. At closing, the Company accrued $5.2 million for the present value of the future credit wrap insurance policy premiums.
The Company agreed to use the proceeds from the Term Loan to (i) fund growth investments and for general corporate purposes including corporate-level research and development investments, (ii) expand the manufacturing facility of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Hi-Power, in the Turtle Creek, Pittsburgh area in Pennsylvania, (iii) redeem in full the Company’s existing indebtedness to Holtec Power, Inc. and (iv) pay certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement.
The Term Loan is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries other than the Company’s equity interests in Hi-Power and assets of Hi-Power, and is guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries other than Hi-Power. The Term Loan agreement also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. In particular, the Term Loan agreement requires the Company to have liquidity of at least $10.7 million as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Term Loan agreement. In addition, the Term Loan agreement limits the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, make restricted payments, including cash dividends on its common stock, make certain investments, loans and advances, enter into mergers and acquisitions, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of its assets, enter into transactions with its affiliates and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, among other restrictions. Furthermore, the limitation on the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness also (i) limits the amount of Pre-Advance Loans that the Company may have outstanding at any time to $15.0 million under the SEPA and (ii) requires the payment of principal and interest in kind on each of the Pre-Advance Loans (if any) and the 2021 Convertible Notes (refer to Note 12, Borrowings).
On August 5, 2022, the Company entered into the Sales Agreement with Cowen, with respect to an at-the-market (“ATM”) offering program under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million (the “Placement Shares”) through Cowen as its sales agent and/or principal. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company sold 12,067,575 shares raising net proceeds of $29.1 million (refer to Note 19, Shareholders’ (Deficit) Equity).
44
Capital Expenditures
The Company expects capital expenditures and working capital requirements to increase as it seeks to execute its growth strategy. The Company currently anticipates that total capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 will be approximately $20.0 million to $25.0 million, which will be used primarily for additional equipment, automation, and other infrastructure to expand the Company’s capacity to meet customer demand. The Company’s capital expenditure and working capital requirements in the foreseeable future may change depending on many factors, including but not limited to: equipment requirements to support the next generation(s) of products, growth in customer backlog, the Company’s operating results and its ability to secure funding, and any adjustments to the Company’s operating plan necessary to respond to industry conditions, competition or unexpected events.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). In preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes assumptions, judgments, and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management regularly reevaluates assumptions, judgments, and estimates.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to the audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s most significant accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment in determining amounts reported in its financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were product warranty and fair value of the embedded conversion feature. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates as compared to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, and consistent with the evaluations previously reported in prior periods, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022 because of material weaknesses resulting from lack of a formalized internal control framework in accordance with COSO, inadequate segregation of duties in the financial reporting process, lack of review and approval of journal entries, and a lack of management review controls.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including its CEO and its CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In light of these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing procedures to determine that the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Part II - Other information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of the Company’s operations.
As disclosed in Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, the Company was under a previously-reported investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) for underpayment of certain custom duties in past years in connection with imports of batteries and battery components manufactured abroad. On July 7, 2022, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the DOJ and Vincent Icolari (“Relator”) to resolve the investigation. The investigation resulted from a qui tam lawsuit (the “Civil Action”) filed by the Relator in December 2019 alleging violations of the False Claims Act.
Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Eos Energy has agreed to pay a total of $1.0 million to the United States and $0.1 million to Relator’s counsel. The Company has fully settled this liability as of September 30, 2022.
As disclosed in Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, in April 2022, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requesting information regarding a variety of matters, including negotiations and agreements with customers and the Company’s disclosures to investors. On August 29, 2022, the Company received a letter from the SEC informing the Company that the SEC’s investigation relating to the subpoena has concluded without any recommendation for enforcement action as to the Company.
