Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Liquidity
Organization
Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 20, 2015. Effective October 6, 2017, the Company’s name was changed to Crown Electrokinetics Corp. from 3D Nanocolor Corp. (“3D Nanocolor”).
The Company is commercializing technology for smart or dynamic glass. The Company’s electrokinetic glass technology is an advancement on microfluidic technology that was originally developed by HP Inc.
On December 20, 2022, the Company incorporated Crown Fiber Optics Corp., a Delaware based entity, to own and operate its acquired business from the acquisition of Amerigen 7, LLC (“Amerigen 7”) in January 2023. Crown Fiber Optics Corp. is accounted for as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crown Electrokinetics, Corp.
Reverse Stock Split
On June 14, 2024, the Company’s board of directors authorized a reverse stock split (“June 2024 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-150 basis. The June 2024 Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 25, 2024, such that every 150 shares of common stock were automatically converted into one share of common stock. The Company did not issue fractional certificates for post-reverse split common stock shares in connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Rather, all shares of common stock that were held by a common stockholder were aggregated and each common stockholder was entitled to receive the number of whole common stock shares resulting from the combination of the aggregated common stock shares. Any fractions resulting from the reverse split computation were rounded up to the next whole common stock share amount.
The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock was not adjusted. In connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the conversion ratio for the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock was proportionately adjusted such that the common stock issuable upon conversion of such preferred stock was decreased in proportion. All references to common stock and options to purchase common stock share data, per share data and related information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the effect of the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split.
On August 11, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized and effected a reverse stock split (“August 2023 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-60 basis.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had cash of approximately $4.0 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $126.6 million as of June 30, 2024, a net loss of approximately $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and approximately $8.9 million of net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company has obtained additional capital through the sale of debt or equity financings or other arrangements to fund operations including through its existing at-the-market offering, and $50.0 million equity line of credit; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise needed capital under acceptable terms, if at all. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing stockholders and newly issued shares may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding shares of common stock. Issued debt securities may contain covenants and limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain such
7


additional financing, future operations would need to be scaled back or discontinued. Due to the uncertainty in the Company’s ability to raise capital, management believes that there is substantial doubt in the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions among consolidated entities were eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information can be condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the assumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial information. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year, or for any other future annual or interim period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Accounting estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but not limited to, cost-to-cost (input) revenue recognition method, estimated fair value of warrant liability, stock option awards for stock-based compensation and operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as Israel and Hamas. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by any negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the conflict in Ukraine or any other geopolitical tensions.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reference is made to Note 3 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2024 for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies as disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily through construction and installation of fiber network infrastructure systems for its customers, and sales of smart glass products, which, together, represents two operating segments, the fiber optics group and film group. Revenues consistent of a combination of the following:
Fiber optics group services:

Specialty Services performed for communications providers in connection with the deployment of underground fiber optic transmission lines.
Specialty Services that involve the upfront procurement of specialized equipment that will be used to provide the services.
Film group products:
Smart Window Inserts, which uses DynamicTint electrokinetic technology that allows windows to tint and transition from clear to true black.
The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services. The Company applies the following five-step revenue recognition model in accounting for its revenue arrangements:
Identification of the contract with the customer;
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
Determination of the transaction price;
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the time between the goods or service being transferred to the customer and the customer pays is one year or less.
Fiber optics group revenue recognition
The nature of the Company’s fiber optics group performance in its agreements is to customize output by constructing infrastructure that is customer specific. The Company is required to adhere to the rules and regulations that are outlined in an agreement between the Company and the Customer. As a result, the fiber optic contracts prevent the Company from directing the use of such output to any other entity except the specific customer. The customer is the only party that can benefit from the output that results from the Company’s performance of Specialty Services under the contract. As such, the Company’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Company has concluded that the Specialty Services are recognized over time.
To measure the progress of completion, the Company uses a cost-to-cost (input) method, by comparing costs incurred to date relative to the total expected costs to satisfy the performance obligation. The Company notes that when applying this method, it excludes the effects of any costs that do not depict its performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer.
Film group revenue recognition
The Company’s film group has not entered into any material revenue contracts with its customers and no revenue is recognized for this operating segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Retainage
The Company’s customers have a contractual right to withhold payment of a retainage amount that typically ranges between 5% to 10% of the total contract consideration. The retainage can be utilized by customers for any claims that may arise after work is completed through one year after project completion. The retainage amount is expected to be collected upon the project's completion and acceptance by the customer. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has recorded a retainage receivable of $0.3 million and zero, respectively, which is a component of the accounts receivable balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
9


The provision for credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of its customer accounts. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had accounts receivable of $3.4 million, compared to $83,000 as of December 31, 2023.
The Company reviews the provision for credit losses by considering certain factors such as historical experience, industry data, credit quality, age of balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Uncollectible receivables are written off when all efforts to collect have been exhausted and recoveries are recognized when they are recovered. The Company’s provision for credit losses were zero as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Concentrations of risk and significant customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions where deposits, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through June 30, 2024.

The Company’s customers are generally large public or private companies with good credit and payment practices and a positive reputation in the industry at the time that the contracts are entered into. Furthermore, because it has the ability to stop transferring promised goods and services if payment is not received, the Company has concluded that collection risk is minimal.

One single customer accounted for 82% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from its Fiber Optics segment. Two customers accounted for approximately 84% of the total revenue generated as of June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s accounts payable primarily included costs associated with professional fees, subcontractor labor, equipment, and other supplies and materials.
Segment and Reporting Unit Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is determined to be the CODM. The Company has two operating segments and two reportable segments as of June 30, 2024, which includes film group and fiber optics group. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 relates to the fiber optics group.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
The Company accounts for debt issuance costs related to its line of credit and equity line of credit as a deferred asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which is amortized over the life of the line of credit and equity line of credit. Since the Company has elected the fair value option for its convertible notes, upon a draw down, a portion of the deferred asset balance will be amortized and recognized as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Warrants
The Company accounts for certain common stock warrants outstanding as a liability at fair value and adjusts the fair value of the instruments at each reporting period. The liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants issued by the Company was estimated using the Black-Scholes model.
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the sum of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the effect of dilutive securities.
10


As the Company was in a net loss position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s aggregate fair value of warrants outstanding was nominal.
Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity
At-the-Market Offering
As of June 30, 2024, the Company has received net proceeds on sales of 32,163 shares of common stock under the at-the-market offering of approximately $0.6 million after deducting $28,000 in commissions and expenses. The weighted-average price of the common stock was $19.11 per share.
Equity Line of Credit
On July 20, 2023 (“Closing Date”), the Company entered into the ELOC with a purchaser (“ELOC Purchaser”) whereby the Company has the right to sell up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of newly issued shares (the “ELOC Shares”) of the Company’s common stock. The aggregate number of shares that the Company can sell under the ELOC Purchase Agreement may not exceed 4.99% of the outstanding common stock, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
15


The purchase price of the shares of common stock that the Company elects to sell to the pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement will be equal to 97.0% of the lower of (i) the lowest intraday sale price of the common stock on the Company’s current trading market on the applicable purchase date or (ii) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing sale prices during the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable purchase date. There is no upper limit on the price per share that ELOC Purchase could be obligated to pay for the common stock under the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company received net proceeds on sales of 1,739,958 shares of common stock of approximately $10.7 million, after deducting commissions and expenses, at a weighted average price of $6.93 per share.
Preferred Stock Conversions
On May 2024, the Company executed a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of its Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stock (collectively “May 2024 COD”) following the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors and the requisite numbers of Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stockholders (collectively “Senior Preferred Stocks”). Under the May 2024 COD, the Company revised the conversion price of its Senior Preferred Stocks to $0.0462 to incentivize the holders to convert their shares into the Company’s common stock. The following table summarizes the number of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock:
Series of Preferred StockNumber of Preferred Stock Shares ConvertedNumber of Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion
Series A25136,220
Series B1,443220,782
Series C500,75678,056
Total502,450335,058
The Company concluded that the conversion is an induced conversion and the fair value for the inducement is recognized as a deemed dividend. Due to the fact that the Company does not have any retained earnings, the Company will record the corresponding entries to additional paid-in capital and the debit/credit has a net nil impact on stockholders’ deficit during the period ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $5,000 entry to additional paid-in capital and common stock par value related to the Senior Preferred Stock conversions.
On May 2024, the holders of Series F, F-1, and F-2 holders exercised their option to convert the shares into common stock utilizing the Alternate Conversion feature. As part of the original terms of the Series F, the shares may be converted to common stock based on the alternate conversion price that is lower than the original conversion price of $0.1478 per share (“Alternate Conversion”) if certain events were to occur (“Triggering Event”). The Triggering Events that occurred that enabled an Alternate Conversion is the (i) failure of the applicable registration statement to be filed with the SEC on or prior to the date that is five (5) days after the applicable filing deadline, and (ii) failure to pay dividends. The Alternate Conversion price is the lowest of (i) the conversion price in effect on the conversion date of the applicable Alternate Conversion, (ii) the greater of (x) the floor price of $0.1478, and (y) 80% of the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock on the trading day preceding delivery day of the conversion notice, (iii) 80% of the VWAP of common stock as of the trading day of the conversion notice delivery day, and (iv) the greater of (x) the floor price of $0.1478, and (y) 80% of the price of the quotient (I) sum of three lowest days of common stock VWAP over 15 days, divided by (II) three. The following table summarizes the number of shares of common stock issued upon the conversion:
Series of Preferred StockNumber of Preferred Stock Shares ConvertedNumber of Common Stock Issued through ConversionNumber of Common Stock Issued for Deemed Dividend in Connection with ConversionTotal Number of Common Stock Issued upon Conversion
Series F4,448648,44138,799648,441

Series F-21,153140,26410,990140,264
Total6,254902,28149,789902,281
16


The Series F, F-1, and F-2 preferred stock were converted to common stock based on the triggering of the Alternative Conversions provisions. As such, the carrying value of the Series F, F-1, and F-2 preferred stock were derecognized. Additionally, the issued shares of common stock from the Series F conversion were recognized at par value and the triggered Alternative Conversion recognized as a deemed dividend. The Company will record the corresponding entries to additional paid-in capital and the debit/credit has a net nil impact on stockholders’ deficit during the period ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $14,000 entry to additional paid-in capital and common stock par value related to the Series F, F-1, and F-2 conversions.

Note 11 – Leases
Leases Under Crown Electrokinetics Film Division
The Company’s Crown Electrokinetics operating segment leases and subleases various office and laboratory spaces under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through fiscal 2027, certain of which contain renewal provisions. These renewal provisions are not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into the determination of lease payments. The Company’s Crown Electrokinetics Film operating segment have no lease agreements that are classified as finance leases.
In March 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Hudson 11601 Wilshire, LLC, to lease 3,500 square feet of office space located in Los Angeles, California. The lease term is 39 months and expires on June 30, 2024. In April 2024, the Company entered into the first amendment for the Hudson lease to revise the payment schedule for the remaining lease term expiring on June 30, 2024. Subsequently, the Company entered into the second amendment in June 2024 to extend the lease term. The second amended lease expires in September 2027. The Company recorded a right-of-use asset of approximately $0.6 million and lease liabilities of approximately $0.6 million related to the first and second amended lease agreements

Leases Under Crown Fiber Optics Division

The Crown Fiber Optics operating segment of the Company leases various offices, storage spaces, and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. These leases have expiration dates through fiscal 2026. Certain leases include renewal options; however, these renewal options are not considered reasonably certain to be exercised and are therefore excluded from the calculation of lease payments. The Crown Fiber Optics operating segment does not have any lease agreements classified as finance leases.

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is also involved in various other claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our partners by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary rights or to establish the Company’s proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Loan Guaranty
In May 2024, the Company entered into a Corporate Guaranty agreement (the “Guaranty”) with Mobilization Funding II, LLC (“Mobilization”) and borrowed approximately $0.6 million as part of the Mobilization Note 2 discussed in Note 6. As part of the Guaranty, the Company agreed to be the primary obligor for the fiber optics group segment and be responsible for the repayment of all principal and interest borrowed under the Guaranty. As of June 30, 2024, all amounts under the Guaranty had been repaid and no further amounts were borrowable.

Note 13 – Segment Reporting

Crown Electrokinetics Corp. operates in two segments: the Electrokinetic Film Technology division and the Fiber Optics division.

Electrokinetic Film Technology Division: This division focuses on developing and selling optical switching films that can be embedded between sheets of glass or applied to the surface of glass or other rigid substrates like acrylic, to electronically control opacity. The technology, initially developed by Hewlett-Packard, enables a transition between clear and dark states in seconds. It is aimed at various applications including commercial buildings, automotive sunroofs, and residential windows. Crown partners with leading glass and film manufacturers for the mass production and distribution of its DynamicTint product. This segment also includes Smart Window Inserts, designed for retrofitting in commercial and residential settings, offering dynamic tinting along with additional insulation and soundproofing.

Fiber Optics Division: Crown’s involvement in fiber optics is relatively recent, marked by the acquisition of Amerigen 7 LLC’s assets, which was focused on the construction of 5G fiber optics infrastructure. Under the Crown Fiber Optics Corp. subsidiary, the company provides contracting services to the fiber optics and telecommunications infrastructure industry. Services range from program management and engineering to the construction of aerial and underground fiber networks. This division aims to capitalize on the demand for enhanced telecommunications bandwidth, with efforts to expand through selective market share increase, potential acquisitions, and leveraging new equipment like micro trenchers to gain a strategic advantage.

Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this report.
As an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, we can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are electing to delay our adoption of such new or revised accounting standards. As a result of this election, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the condensed financial statements of other public companies.
Overview
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 20, 2015. Effective October 6, 2017, our name was changed to Crown Electrokinetics Corp. from 3D Nanocolor Corp.
We commercialize technology for smart or dynamic glass. Our electrokinetic glass technology is an advancement on microfluidic technology that was originally developed by HP Inc.
Reverse Stock Split

On June 14, 2024, our board of directors authorized a reverse stock split (“June 2024 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-150 basis. The June 2024 Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 25, 2024, such that every 150 shares of common stock were automatically converted into one share of common stock. We did not issue fractional certificates for post-reverse split common stock shares in connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split. All shares of common stock that were held by a common stockholder were aggregated and each common stockholder was entitled to receive the number of whole common stock shares resulting from the combination of the aggregated common stock shares. Any fractions resulting the reverse split computation were rounded up to the next whole common stock share amount.

The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock was not adjusted. In connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the conversion ratio for our outstanding convertible preferred stock was proportionately adjusted such that the common stock issuable upon conversion of such preferred stock was decreased in proportion. All references to common stock and options to purchase common stock share data, per share data and related information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the effect of the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split.

In August 2023, our board of directors authorized and effected a reverse stock split (“August 2023 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-60 basis.

In connection with our Equity Line of Credit (ELOC), the Company the Company received net proceeds on sales of     1,739,958 shares of common stock of approximately $10.7 million, after deducting commissions and expenses, at a weighted average price of $6.93 per share.
The following represents a summary of our 2023 activities:
January 3, 2023: We secured net proceeds of $1.0 million from issuing senior secured notes with a principal of $1.2 million and debt discount of $0.2 million.
February 2, 2023: We drew $2.0 million from the Line of Credit ("LOC"); issued an LOC Note, due in 60 days.
April 4, 2023: We paid $0.3 million towards the LOC balance.
May 16, 2023: We made a second draw of $0.2 million from the LOC; issued the 2nd LOC Note, due July 16, 2023, with 15% annual interest.
May 26, 2023: We drew an additional $0.2 million from the LOC; issued the 3rd LOC Note, due June 2, 2023, with a $0.2 million commitment fee and no interest.
June 13, 2023: We partially redeemed the LOC Note principal and fully redeemed the 2nd and 3rd LOC Notes, including accrued interest and fees, for approximately $2.1 million.
July 25, 2023: We entered into a $0.1 million Demand Notes Agreement ("Q3 Demand Notes"), payable upon demand after our initial securities offering or by August 25, 2024.

We have obtained additional capital through the sale of debt or equity financings or other arrangements including through our existing ATM Offering, and the ELOC to fund operations; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise needed capital under acceptable terms, if at all. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing stockholders and newly issued shares may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding shares of common stock. Issued debt securities may contain covenants and limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders. If we are unable to obtain such additional financing, future operations would need to be scaled back or discontinued. Due to the uncertainty in our ability to raise capital, we believe that there is substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.
There are certain critical estimates that require significant judgment in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:

it requires us to make an assumption because information was not available at the time or it included matters that were highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made; and

changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected may have had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Our accounting estimates, specifically related to the impairment of long-lived assets, cost-to-cost (input) revenue recognition method and share-based compensation, play a crucial role in our financial reporting. Despite our thorough assessment, we have not identified any recent events or conditions necessitating revisions to our estimates and assumptions that would materially impact the carrying values of our assets or liabilities as of this Form 10-Q’s issuance date. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The use of the cost-to-cost (input) revenue recognition method requires us to make estimates regarding the total costs expected to complete each contract. These estimates are based on historical experience, project-specific factors, and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The accuracy of these estimates can significantly impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized. Adjustments to estimated costs are made on a continuous basis and recognized in the period in which the revisions are identified. If the estimated total costs exceed the total contract revenue, a provision for the expected loss on the contract is recognized immediately.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our financial statements.
JOBS Act Transition Period
As an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, we can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth
31


company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are electing to delay our adoption of such new or revised accounting standards. As a result of this election, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the condensed financial statements of other public companies.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Act of 1934. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to provide assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

32


Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Management is committed to accurate and ethical business practices. Based on our evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024, due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management noted the following deficiencies that we believe to be material weaknesses:

Lack of documentation of processes and controls at the level appropriate for a public company;
Inadequate design of information technology general and application controls over certain operating systems and system applications supporting financial reporting processes;
Lack of segregation of duties in certain accounting and financial reporting processes; and
Ineffective risk assessment controls, due to a lack of documentation of management’s periodic risk assessment.
Management’s view is that unethical, illegal, or inaccurate conduct in the operations and accounting for our company violates the trust and integrity of our company and is damaging to the interests of all stakeholders, and in the long-term misconduct injures the interests of even the individual whom it might initially benefit. This is reinforced periodically with informal conversations and is ingrained in the culture of our company. When questions arise, they are escalated to the CFO, CEO, or Board of Directors for review, investigation, direction, and consensus, and external opinion is sought if consensus is not achieved. The Senior Vice President of Accounting and CFO both have direct contact with all levels of review. Management intends to work internally and with third parties to ensure we have the proper controls in place going forward.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are also involved in various other claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our partners by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Other than those previously disclosed by the Company in its current reports on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC, there have been no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

Nature of Business and Liquidity Nature of Business and Liquidity
Organization
Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 20, 2015. Effective October 6, 2017, the Company’s name was changed to Crown Electrokinetics Corp. from 3D Nanocolor Corp. (“3D Nanocolor”).
The Company is commercializing technology for smart or dynamic glass. The Company’s electrokinetic glass technology is an advancement on microfluidic technology that was originally developed by HP Inc.
On December 20, 2022, the Company incorporated Crown Fiber Optics Corp., a Delaware based entity, to own and operate its acquired business from the acquisition of Amerigen 7, LLC (“Amerigen 7”) in January 2023. Crown Fiber Optics Corp. is accounted for as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crown Electrokinetics, Corp.
Reverse Stock Split
On June 14, 2024, the Company’s board of directors authorized a reverse stock split (“June 2024 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-150 basis. The June 2024 Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 25, 2024, such that every 150 shares of common stock were automatically converted into one share of common stock. The Company did not issue fractional certificates for post-reverse split common stock shares in connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Rather, all shares of common stock that were held by a common stockholder were aggregated and each common stockholder was entitled to receive the number of whole common stock shares resulting from the combination of the aggregated common stock shares. Any fractions resulting from the reverse split computation were rounded up to the next whole common stock share amount.
The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock was not adjusted. In connection with the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the conversion ratio for the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock was proportionately adjusted such that the common stock issuable upon conversion of such preferred stock was decreased in proportion. All references to common stock and options to purchase common stock share data, per share data and related information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the effect of the June 2024 Reverse Stock Split.
On August 11, 2023, the Company’s board of directors authorized and effected a reverse stock split (“August 2023 Reverse Stock Split”) at an exchange ratio of one-for-60 basis.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had cash of approximately $4.0 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $126.6 million as of June 30, 2024, a net loss of approximately $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and approximately $8.9 million of net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company has obtained additional capital through the sale of debt or equity financings or other arrangements to fund operations including through its existing at-the-market offering, and $50.0 million equity line of credit; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise needed capital under acceptable terms, if at all. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing stockholders and newly issued shares may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding shares of common stock. Issued debt securities may contain covenants and limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain such
additional financing, future operations would need to be scaled back or discontinued. Due to the uncertainty in the Company’s ability to raise capital, management believes that there is substantial doubt in the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions among consolidated entities were eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information can be condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the assumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial information. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year, or for any other future annual or interim period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Accounting estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but not limited to, cost-to-cost (input) revenue recognition method, estimated fair value of warrant liability, stock option awards for stock-based compensation and operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as Israel and Hamas. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by any negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the conflict in Ukraine or any other geopolitical tensions.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reference is made to Note 3 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2024 for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies as disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily through construction and installation of fiber network infrastructure systems for its customers, and sales of smart glass products, which, together, represents two operating segments, the fiber optics group and film group. Revenues consistent of a combination of the following:
Fiber optics group services:
Specialty Services performed for communications providers in connection with the deployment of underground fiber optic transmission lines.
Specialty Services that involve the upfront procurement of specialized equipment that will be used to provide the services.
Film group products:
Smart Window Inserts, which uses DynamicTint electrokinetic technology that allows windows to tint and transition from clear to true black.
The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services. The Company applies the following five-step revenue recognition model in accounting for its revenue arrangements:
Identification of the contract with the customer;
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
Determination of the transaction price;
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the time between the goods or service being transferred to the customer and the customer pays is one year or less.
Fiber optics group revenue recognition
The nature of the Company’s fiber optics group performance in its agreements is to customize output by constructing infrastructure that is customer specific. The Company is required to adhere to the rules and regulations that are outlined in an agreement between the Company and the Customer. As a result, the fiber optic contracts prevent the Company from directing the use of such output to any other entity except the specific customer. The customer is the only party that can benefit from the output that results from the Company’s performance of Specialty Services under the contract. As such, the Company’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Company has concluded that the Specialty Services are recognized over time.
To measure the progress of completion, the Company uses a cost-to-cost (input) method, by comparing costs incurred to date relative to the total expected costs to satisfy the performance obligation. The Company notes that when applying this method, it excludes the effects of any costs that do not depict its performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer.
Film group revenue recognition
The Company’s film group has not entered into any material revenue contracts with its customers and no revenue is recognized for this operating segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Retainage
The Company’s customers have a contractual right to withhold payment of a retainage amount that typically ranges between 5% to 10% of the total contract consideration. The retainage can be utilized by customers for any claims that may arise after work is completed through one year after project completion. The retainage amount is expected to be collected upon the project's completion and acceptance by the customer. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has recorded a retainage receivable of $0.3 million and zero, respectively, which is a component of the accounts receivable balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of its customer accounts. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had accounts receivable of $3.4 million, compared to $83,000 as of December 31, 2023.
The Company reviews the provision for credit losses by considering certain factors such as historical experience, industry data, credit quality, age of balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Uncollectible receivables are written off when all efforts to collect have been exhausted and recoveries are recognized when they are recovered. The Company’s provision for credit losses were zero as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Concentrations of risk and significant customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions where deposits, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through June 30, 2024.

The Company’s customers are generally large public or private companies with good credit and payment practices and a positive reputation in the industry at the time that the contracts are entered into. Furthermore, because it has the ability to stop transferring promised goods and services if payment is not received, the Company has concluded that collection risk is minimal.

One single customer accounted for 82% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from its Fiber Optics segment. Two customers accounted for approximately 84% of the total revenue generated as of June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s accounts payable primarily included costs associated with professional fees, subcontractor labor, equipment, and other supplies and materials.
Segment and Reporting Unit Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is determined to be the CODM. The Company has two operating segments and two reportable segments as of June 30, 2024, which includes film group and fiber optics group. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 relates to the fiber optics group.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
The Company accounts for debt issuance costs related to its line of credit and equity line of credit as a deferred asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which is amortized over the life of the line of credit and equity line of credit. Since the Company has elected the fair value option for its convertible notes, upon a draw down, a portion of the deferred asset balance will be amortized and recognized as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Warrants
The Company accounts for certain common stock warrants outstanding as a liability at fair value and adjusts the fair value of the instruments at each reporting period. The liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants issued by the Company was estimated using the Black-Scholes model.
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the sum of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the effect of dilutive securities.
As the Company was in a net loss position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s aggregate fair value of warrants outstanding was nominal.

At-the-Market Offering
As of June 30, 2024, the Company has received net proceeds on sales of 32,163 shares of common stock under the at-the-market offering of approximately $0.6 million after deducting $28,000 in commissions and expenses. The weighted-average price of the common stock was $19.11 per share.
Equity Line of Credit
On July 20, 2023 (“Closing Date”), the Company entered into the ELOC with a purchaser (“ELOC Purchaser”) whereby the Company has the right to sell up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of newly issued shares (the “ELOC Shares”) of the Company’s common stock. The aggregate number of shares that the Company can sell under the ELOC Purchase Agreement may not exceed 4.99% of the outstanding common stock, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
The purchase price of the shares of common stock that the Company elects to sell to the pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement will be equal to 97.0% of the lower of (i) the lowest intraday sale price of the common stock on the Company’s current trading market on the applicable purchase date or (ii) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing sale prices during the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable purchase date. There is no upper limit on the price per share that ELOC Purchase could be obligated to pay for the common stock under the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company received net proceeds on sales of 1,739,958 shares of common stock of approximately $10.7 million, after deducting commissions and expenses, at a weighted average price of $6.93 per share.
Preferred Stock Conversions
On May 2024, the Company executed a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of its Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stock (collectively “May 2024 COD”) following the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors and the requisite numbers of Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stockholders (collectively “Senior Preferred Stocks”). Under the May 2024 COD, the Company revised the conversion price of its Senior Preferred Stocks to $0.0462 to incentivize the holders to convert their shares into the Company’s common stock. The following table summarizes the number of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock:
Series of Preferred StockNumber of Preferred Stock Shares ConvertedNumber of Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion
Series A25136,220
Series B1,443220,782
Series C500,75678,056
Total502,450335,058
The Company concluded that the conversion is an induced conversion and the fair value for the inducement is recognized as a deemed dividend. Due to the fact that the Company does not have any retained earnings, the Company will record the corresponding entries to additional paid-in capital and the debit/credit has a net nil impact on stockholders’ deficit during the period ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $5,000 entry to additional paid-in capital and common stock par value related to the Senior Preferred Stock conversions.
On May 2024, the holders of Series F, F-1, and F-2 holders exercised their option to convert the shares into common stock utilizing the Alternate Conversion feature. As part of the original terms of the Series F, the shares may be converted to common stock based on the alternate conversion price that is lower than the original conversion price of $0.1478 per share (“Alternate Conversion”) if certain events were to occur (“Triggering Event”). The Triggering Events that occurred that enabled an Alternate Conversion is the (i) failure of the applicable registration statement to be filed with the SEC on or prior to the date that is five (5) days after the applicable filing deadline, and (ii) failure to pay dividends. The Alternate Conversion price is the lowest of (i) the conversion price in effect on the conversion date of the applicable Alternate Conversion, (ii) the greater of (x) the floor price of $0.1478, and (y) 80% of the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock on the trading day preceding delivery day of the conversion notice, (iii) 80% of the VWAP of common stock as of the trading day of the conversion notice delivery day, and (iv) the greater of (x) the floor price of $0.1478, and (y) 80% of the price of the quotient (I) sum of three lowest days of common stock VWAP over 15 days, divided by (II) three. The following table summarizes the number of shares of common stock issued upon the conversion:

As such, the carrying value of the Series F, F-1, and F-2 preferred stock were derecognized. Additionally, the issued shares of common stock from the Series F conversion were recognized at par value and the triggered Alternative Conversion recognized as a deemed dividend. The Company will record the corresponding entries to additional paid-in capital and the debit/credit has a net nil impact on stockholders’ deficit during the period ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $14,000 entry to additional paid-in capital and common stock par value related to the Series F, F-1, and F-2 conversions.

Leases Leases
Leases Under Crown Electrokinetics Film Division
The Company’s Crown Electrokinetics operating segment leases and subleases various office and laboratory spaces under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through fiscal 2027, certain of which contain renewal provisions. These renewal provisions are not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into the determination of lease payments. The Company’s Crown Electrokinetics Film operating segment have no lease agreements that are classified as finance leases.
In March 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Hudson 11601 Wilshire, LLC, to lease 3,500 square feet of office space located in Los Angeles, California. The lease term is 39 months and expires on June 30, 2024. In April 2024, the Company entered into the first amendment for the Hudson lease to revise the payment schedule for the remaining lease term expiring on June 30, 2024. Subsequently, the Company entered into the second amendment in June 2024 to extend the lease term. The second amended lease expires in September 2027. The Company recorded a right-of-use asset of approximately $0.6 million and lease liabilities of approximately $0.6 million related to the first and second amended lease agreements

Leases Under Crown Fiber Optics Division

The Crown Fiber Optics operating segment of the Company leases various offices, storage spaces, and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. These leases have expiration dates through fiscal 2026. Certain leases include renewal options; however, these renewal options are not considered reasonably certain to be exercised and are therefore excluded from the calculation of lease payments. The Crown Fiber Optics operating segment does not have any lease agreements classified as finance leases.

Litigation
From time to time, the Company is also involved in various other claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our partners by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary rights or to establish the Company’s proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Loan Guaranty
In May 2024, the Company entered into a Corporate Guaranty agreement (the “Guaranty”) with Mobilization Funding II, LLC (“Mobilization”) and borrowed approximately $0.6 million as part of the Mobilization Note 2 discussed in Note 6. As part of the Guaranty, the Company agreed to be the primary obligor for the fiber optics group segment and be responsible for the repayment of all principal and interest borrowed under the Guaranty. As of June 30, 2024, all amounts under the Guaranty had been repaid and no further amounts were borrowable.

Segment Reporting Segment Reporting
Crown Electrokinetics Corp. operates in two segments: the Electrokinetic Film Technology division and the Fiber Optics division.

Electrokinetic Film Technology Division: This division focuses on developing and selling optical switching films that can be embedded between sheets of glass or applied to the surface of glass or other rigid substrates like acrylic, to electronically control opacity. The technology, initially developed by Hewlett-Packard, enables a transition between clear and dark states in seconds. It is aimed at various applications including commercial buildings, automotive sunroofs, and residential windows. Crown partners with leading glass and film manufacturers for the mass production and distribution of its DynamicTint product. This segment also includes Smart Window Inserts, designed for retrofitting in commercial and residential settings, offering dynamic tinting along with additional insulation and soundproofing.

Fiber Optics Division: Crown’s involvement in fiber optics is relatively recent, marked by the acquisition of Amerigen 7 LLC’s assets, which was focused on the construction of 5G fiber optics infrastructure. Under the Crown Fiber Optics Corp. subsidiary, the company provides contracting services to the fiber optics and telecommunications infrastructure industry. Services range from program management and engineering to the construction of aerial and underground fiber networks. This division aims to capitalize on the demand for enhanced telecommunications bandwidth, with efforts to expand through selective market share increase, potential acquisitions, and leveraging new equipment like micro trenchers to gain a strategic advantage.

Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions among consolidated entities were eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information can be condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the assumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial information. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year, or for any other future annual or interim period.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Accounting estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but not limited to, cost-to-cost (input) revenue recognition method, estimated fair value of warrant liability, stock option awards for stock-based compensation and operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities.
Risks and Uncertainties
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as Israel and Hamas. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by any negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the conflict in Ukraine or any other geopolitical tensions.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reference is made to Note 3 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2024 for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies as disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily through construction and installation of fiber network infrastructure systems for its customers, and sales of smart glass products, which, together, represents two operating segments, the fiber optics group and film group. Revenues consistent of a combination of the following:
Fiber optics group services:
Specialty Services performed for communications providers in connection with the deployment of underground fiber optic transmission lines.
Specialty Services that involve the upfront procurement of specialized equipment that will be used to provide the services.
Film group products:
Smart Window Inserts, which uses DynamicTint electrokinetic technology that allows windows to tint and transition from clear to true black.
The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services. The Company applies the following five-step revenue recognition model in accounting for its revenue arrangements:
Identification of the contract with the customer;
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
Determination of the transaction price;
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the time between the goods or service being transferred to the customer and the customer pays is one year or less.
Fiber optics group revenue recognition
The nature of the Company’s fiber optics group performance in its agreements is to customize output by constructing infrastructure that is customer specific. The Company is required to adhere to the rules and regulations that are outlined in an agreement between the Company and the Customer. As a result, the fiber optic contracts prevent the Company from directing the use of such output to any other entity except the specific customer. The customer is the only party that can benefit from the output that results from the Company’s performance of Specialty Services under the contract. As such, the Company’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Company has concluded that the Specialty Services are recognized over time.
To measure the progress of completion, the Company uses a cost-to-cost (input) method, by comparing costs incurred to date relative to the total expected costs to satisfy the performance obligation. The Company notes that when applying this method, it excludes the effects of any costs that do not depict its performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer.
Film group revenue recognition
The Company’s film group has not entered into any material revenue contracts with its customers and no revenue is recognized for this operating segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of its customer accounts. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had accounts receivable of $3.4 million, compared to $83,000 as of December 31, 2023.
The Company reviews the provision for credit losses by considering certain factors such as historical experience, industry data, credit quality, age of balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Uncollectible receivables are written off when all efforts to collect have been exhausted and recoveries are recognized when they are recovered. The Company’s provision for credit losses were zero as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Concentrations of risk and significant customers
Concentrations of risk and significant customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions where deposits, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through June 30, 2024.

The Company’s customers are generally large public or private companies with good credit and payment practices and a positive reputation in the industry at the time that the contracts are entered into. Furthermore, because it has the ability to stop transferring promised goods and services if payment is not received, the Company has concluded that collection risk is minimal.

One single customer accounted for 82% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2024.

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from its Fiber Optics segment. Two customers accounted for approximately 84% of the total revenue generated as of June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s accounts payable primarily included costs associated with professional fees, subcontractor labor, equipment, and other supplies and materials.
Segment and Reporting Unit Information
Segment and Reporting Unit Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is determined to be the CODM. The Company has two operating segments and two reportable segments as of June 30, 2024, which includes film group and fiber optics group. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 relates to the fiber optics group.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
The Company accounts for debt issuance costs related to its line of credit and equity line of credit as a deferred asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which is amortized over the life of the line of credit and equity line of credit. Since the Company has elected the fair value option for its convertible notes, upon a draw down, a portion of the deferred asset balance will be amortized and recognized as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Warrants
Warrants
The Company accounts for certain common stock warrants outstanding as a liability at fair value and adjusts the fair value of the instruments at each reporting period. The liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants issued by the Company was estimated using the Black-Scholes model.
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the sum of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the effect of dilutive securities.
As the Company was in a net loss position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
