Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

The Company has experienced operating losses and negative cash flow from operations since inception and currently has an accumulated deficit. At the rate it is currently consuming cash its cash balances should be sufficient to fund operations for 8 to 12 months, after which it will need to utilize its working capital line. Availability under the working capital line will in part depend on there being sufficient eligible receivables to support the Company’s borrowing needs, the adequacy of which can not be assured. As of June 30, 2004 eligible receivables would support borrowings of approximately $736,000 under the facility. To date the Company has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of equity, however, there is no assurance that it will be able to continue to raise funds in this manner in the future. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is ultimately dependent on its ability to increase sales to a level that will allow it to operate profitably. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Please see the liquidity and capital resources section of Item 2 to this report for additional information on Management’s plan for addressing potential future liquidity concerns.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and the related footnotes included in the Electric City Corp. Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Note 2 - Stock-based Compensation

At June 30, 2004, the Company had a stock-based compensation plan, which is more fully described in Note 16 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as filed on March 29, 2004. The Company applies and intends to continue to apply the recognition and intrinsic value measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations in accounting for those plans. No stock-based compensation expense was reflected in the net loss for the three month or six month periods ended June 30, 2004 or June 30, 2003, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The following table illustrates the effect on the net loss and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based compensation:

Note 3 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March, 2004, the FASB issued an exposure document entitled Share-Based Payment - an amendment of Statements No. 123 and 95 (Proposed Statement of Financial Accounting Standards). The proposed Statement would eliminate the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB Opinion No. 25 and generally require instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. This accounting, if approved, will result in compensation expense charges to our future results of operations. The proposed Statement, if adopted, would be applied to public entities prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004, as if all share-based compensation awards granted, modified, or settled after December 15, 1994, had been accounted for using the fair-value method of accounting. Retrospective application of the proposed Statement is not permitted.

Note 4 – Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes loss per share under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 “Earnings Per Share,” which requires presentation of two amounts: basic and diluted loss per

common share. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding, and includes all common stock issued. Diluted earnings would include all common stock equivalents. The Company has not included the outstanding options, warrants or shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock and convertible debt as common stock equivalents in the computation of diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 because the effect would be antidilutive.

The following table sets forth the weighted average shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock and convertible debt that are not included in the basic and diluted loss per share available to common stockholders because to do so would be antidilutive:

Note 5 - Warranty Obligations

The Company warrants to the purchasers of its EnergySaver line of products that the product will be free of defects in material and workmanship for one year from the date of installation. The Company records the estimated cost that may be incurred under its warranties at the time the product revenue is recognized based upon the relationship between historical and anticipated warranty costs and sales volumes. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary. While the Company believes that its estimated liability for product warranties is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, the estimated liability for product warranties could differ materially from actual future warranty costs. Changes in the Company’s warranty liability are as follows:

Note 8 - Business Segment Information

The Company organizes and manages its business in two distinct segments: the Energy Technology segment, and the Building Control and Automation segment. In classifying its operational entities into a particular segment, the Company segregated its businesses with similar economic characteristics, products and services, production processes, customers, and methods of distribution into distinct operating groups.

The Energy Technology segment designs, manufactures and markets energy saving technologies, primarily to commercial and industrial customers. The principal products produced and marketed by this segment are the EnergySaver, the Global Commander and negative power systems under the trade name, Virtual “Negawatt” Power Plan or “VNPP”. This segment is headquartered, and most of its operations are located, in Elk Grove Village, Illinois.

The Building Control and Automation segment, which is comprised of our Great Lakes Controlled Energy subsidiary, provides integration of building and environmental control systems for commercial and industrial customers. Great Lakes Controlled Energy is headquartered in, and operates out of its own facility, located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois.

Prior to fiscal year 2003, the Company’s reportable segments included the Power Management segment, which designed, manufactured and marketed a wide range of commercial and industrial switching gear and distribution panels. Effective May 31, 2003, the Company divested this segment, accordingly, the operating results have been separately reported as discontinued operations. Prior year segment information has been restated to reflect corporate costs previously allocated to the Power Management segment, which will continue despite the divestiture of the segment.

Note 9 – Private Placement and Redemption and Exchange Offer

On March 19, 2004, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with a group of four mutual funds managed by Security Benefit Group, Inc. (“Security Benefit”), whereby the Company issued to such purchasers, in exchange for $11,000,000 in gross proceeds, a package of securities that included 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and 5 year warrants to purchase 1,750,000 additional shares of common stock at $2.42 per share in cash (the “Common Stock Warrants”). The exercise price under the Common Stock Warrants is subject to adjustment if the Company issues shares of common stock at a price below the lower of the exercise price or the market price at the time.

Also on March 19, 2004, the Company entered into a Redemption and Exchange Agreement with the holders of its outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Existing Preferred Stock”) under which the Company agreed to redeem 538,462 shares of Existing Preferred Stock at a price of $13 per share (the “Redemption”) and to exchange shares of its newly authorized Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred”) for all remaining outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock (the “Exchange”) on a 1 for 10 basis (one share of Series E Preferred exchanged for 10 shares of Existing Preferred Stock). The Company used $7 million of the proceeds from the issuance of securities to Security Benefit to accomplish the Redemption, which closed on March 22, 2004.

Under the Redemption and Exchange transaction, the Company redeemed 538,462 shares of its outstanding Existing Preferred Stock (which were convertible into 5,384,620 shares of common stock), at a price equivalent to $1.30 per common share, and exchanged 210,451 shares of the new Series E Preferred) for the remaining 2,104,509 outstanding shares of the Existing Preferred Stock. All of the Existing Preferred Stock has been cancelled. The Series E Preferred has substantially the same rights as the shares of Existing Preferred Stock that it replaced, including:

  special approval rights in respect of certain actions by the Company, including any issuance of shares of capital stock by the Company that would have the right to receive dividends or the right to participate in any distribution upon liquidation which was senior to or equal to the rights of the Series E Preferred (other than issuances to pay dividends on the preferred and under certain other limited exceptions such as conversion of outstanding convertible securities) and any acquisition, sale, merger, joint venture, consolidation or reorganization involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

  a conversion price equivalent to $1.00 per share;

  the right to elect up to four directors;

  the right to vote with the holders of common stock on an “as converted” basis on all matters on which holders of our common stock are entitled to vote, except with respect to the election of directors or as otherwise provided by law;

-13-


Table of Contents

  a right of first offer on the sale of equity by the Company in a private transaction; and
 
  anti-dilution protection that would adjust the conversion price in the event we issue equity at a price which is less than the conversion price .

The Exchange was effected on a 1 for 10 basis: whereas each share of the Existing Preferred Stock was convertible into 10 shares of Common Stock and had a liquidation preference of $20 per share, each share of the Series E Preferred is convertible into 100 shares of Common Stock and has a liquidation preference of $200 per share. As part of the Exchange, all outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock were exchanged for similar warrants to purchase shares of Series E Preferred, but the expiration date was extended from June 30, 2004 to October 31, 2004, which was subsequently extended to December 31, 2004. Such Series E warrants issued are exercisable for an aggregate of 3,750 shares of Series E Preferred at a price of $100 per share. They replaced warrants exercisable for 37,500 shares of Series D Preferred at an exercise price of $10 per share.

In addition the Existing Preferred Stock carried a dividend rate of 10% payable at the Company’s election in cash or in additional shares of preferred stock during the first three years following issuance. After the third anniversary of issuance we were required to pay all dividends in cash and the dividend rate increased by 1/2% every six months until it reached 15%, where it would remain until the shares were converted or redeemed. The Series E Preferred carries a 6% dividend that is payable at the Company’s election in cash or additional shares of Series E Preferred for as long as the shares remain outstanding.

The following table summarizes the change in outstanding shares that resulted from this series of transactions as of March 22, 2004:

stock. Based on the terms and number of shares of the Existing Preferred outstanding prior to the Redemption and Exchange, if the Company continued to pay preferred dividends by issuing additional preferred shares, the Company would have issued shares of preferred stock convertible into 10,306,790 shares of common stock over the next three years, whereas it only expects to issue shares of Series E preferred convertible into 4,473,919 shares of common stock over the same period, a reduction of 5,832,871 shares or 56.6%.

As part of the Redemption and Exchange, the preferred stockholders agreed to amend and restate their existing stock trading agreements, effectively replacing them with a new three year agreement containing volume and price limitations which become effective on September 8, 2004 after the original expiration date of September 7, 2004. The Investor Rights Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement among the Company, the preferred stockholders and certain other parties were also amended and restated as part of the Redemption and Exchange, principally to reflect the changes in the outstanding preferred stock resulting from the transactions.

For accounting purposes the Redemption and Exchange transaction was viewed as a redemption for cash and shares of Series E preferred stock. As a result of the transaction the Company incurred a non-cash deemed dividend of $1,860,458. This non-cash deemed dividend was determined by comparing the fair value of the consideration given (the cash and the market value of the Series E Preferred) to the carrying value of the Existing Preferred Stock. The fair value of the consideration given exceeded the carrying value of the Existing Preferred primarily due to the fact that the market price of the Company’s common stock was higher on the day the Redemption and Exchange transaction closed than it was when the Existing Preferred Stock was originally issued. The deemed dividend was recorded as offsetting charges and credits to additional paid-in capital, without any effect on total stockholders’ equity.

Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc. acted as placement agent for the Company with respect to the transaction and was paid a placement agent fee of $660,000. The Stockpage.com was also paid a finder’s fee of $55,000 and William Blair & Co. was paid a consulting fee of $75,000 related to the transaction. Other issuance costs related to the transaction totaled $107,135.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 

You should read the following discussion regarding the Company along with the Company’s financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report. This quarterly report, including the following discussion, contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Company’s actual results, performance and achievements in 2004 and beyond may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. See Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

Overview

We are a developer, manufacturer and integrator of energy savings technologies, and building automation systems as well as an independent developer of scalable, negative power systems. We currently market the EnergySaver, and the GlobalCommander energy conservation technologies, as well as our independent development of scalable, negative power systems under the trade name, Virtual “Negawatt” Power Plan or “VNPP”. Electric City is based in Elk Grove Village, Illinois and is traded on The American Stock Exchange under the symbol ELC. Our premier energy saving product is the EnergySaver system, which reduces energy consumed by lighting, typically by 20% to 30%, with minimal reduction in lighting levels. This technology has applications in commercial buildings, factories and office structures, as well as street lighting and parking lot lighting. Combining the technologies of the EnergySaver and GlobalCommander led to the development of our Virtual “Negawatt” Power Plan concept, which is essentially a negative power system which we intend to market primarily to utilities as a demand response system. It is envisioned that the demand reduction could be specifically placed across a utility grid targeting potential “hot spots” such as particular feeders or substations. We believe that the Electric City VNPP will be the first demand response system to provide this level of control to a utility

without requiring active customer participation and without impacting a customer’s operations or ability to do business. The VNPP can be developed in conjunction with a utility provider, a utility’s independent power subsidiary or with other sister companies within a utility family. In some markets, the VNPP can be developed completely at risk, just as the industry has seen with the development of independent power plants, or developed with a long-term negative power purchase agreement with a utility. In October 2003, we entered into an agreement with Commonwealth Edison (“ComEd”) to develop the first 50-megawatt VNPP system, to be located in northern Illinois. We anticipate that approximately 1,500 EnergySavers will be required to deliver the 50 megawatts of curtailment envisioned under this contract. We have begun to install EnergySavers under this program and expect to complete the installation of units over the next 18 to 24 months. In addition to our EnergySaver system, we design, install and monitor building control and environmental systems through our subsidiary Great Lakes Controlled Energy Corporation (“Great Lakes”).

Results of Operations

Our revenues reflect the sale of our products, net of allowances for returns and other adjustments. Revenues of Electric City and its subsidiary are generated from the sale of products and services, the vast majority of which are sold in the U.S.

Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of materials and labor. Also included in our cost of goods sold are freight, charges from third parties for installation of our products, costs of operating our manufacturing facility, charges for potential future warranty claims, and royalty costs related to EnergySaver sales. Cost of goods sold also includes the wages and expenses of our engineering group at Great Lakes.

Sales and gross profits depend, in part, on the volume and mix of products sold during any given period. Generally, products that we manufacture have a higher gross profit margin than products that we purchase and resell.

A portion of our operating expense is relatively fixed, such as the cost of our facilities. Accordingly, an increase in the volume of sales will generally result in an increase to our gross margins since these fixed expenses do not increase proportionately with sales. We have not consistently utilized the manufacturing capacity of our facility and, therefore, believe that the fixed nature of some of our expenses would contribute to an increase in our gross margin in future periods if sales volumes increase. In particular we believe that our facility in Elk Grove Village can support a sales level of EnergySaver products of approximately $15 million to $20 million per year without a significant further investment in fixed assets.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses include the following components:

  direct labor and commission costs related to our employee sales force;

  expenses related to our non-manufacturing management, supervisory and staff salaries and employee benefits;

  commission costs related to our independent sales representatives and our distributors;

  costs related to insurance, travel and customer entertainment and office supplies costs and the cost of non-manufacturing utilities;

  costs related with marketing and advertising our products;

Interest expense for continuing operations includes the costs and expenses associated with working capital indebtedness, the mortgage on our headquarters building, a convertible term loan, and various auto loans, all as reflected on our current and prior financial statements. Also included in interest expense is amortization of the debt discount which includes the fair value of the warrants issued to Laurus Master Fund, as well as the value of beneficial conversion feature attributed to the Convertible Term Loan. Also reported as interest expense is the amortization of deferred financing costs related to the credit facility with Laurus Master Fund.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2003.

Our total revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 declined $1,113,184 or 66.7% to $555,537 as compared to $1,668,721 for the three month period ended June 30, 2003. Revenue related to EnergySaver sales declined approximately $916,000, or 86%, to approximately $150,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $1,066,000 for the same period in 2003. EnergySavers unit sales decreased 87% to 16 units during the second quarter of 2004 (not including units shipped under the ComEd VNPP) from 123 units sold during the second quarter of 2003. The decline in EnergySaver revenue is primarily due to a shift in market response to the Company’s new utility initiative, and in particular the ComEd and Xcel VNPPs. The ComEd VNPP agreement was finalized during the third quarter of 2003 and as a result the Company’s in house sales resources have been actively seeking users to participate in the newly created program. We began shipment of EnergySavers under the ComEd program late in 2003 with continued shipments during the first half of 2004, but we have not recognized revenue on any of these shipments.

The ComEd VNPP is structured as a service agreement with a 13 year term in which Electric City will provide up to 50 MWs of curtailment capacity to ComEd at a fixed price per kilowatt of installed capacity, payable quarterly in arrears whether the capacity is used or not as the capacity is installed. We have not recognized any service revenue related to installed capacity, which to date has been minimal. In order to finance the cost of building and installing the equipment for the VNPP, we are negotiating to sell the equipment and the contract to a limited liability company (the “LLC”) being created by a Chicago based investment bank. We believe that we have investors who are ready and willing to fund the LLC, but the closing, including completion of final documentation, is awaiting installation and host acceptance of equipment worth approximately $1 million, which we hope to achieve during the third quarter of 2004. We hope that current accounting rules will permit us to recognize revenue on the transfer of equipment to the LLC, but there is a chance this will not happen in which case we will have to recognize revenue as service revenue over the term of the contract. This would result in the conversion of equipment revenue to annualized service revenue. It is possible that future VNPPs will be treated similarly, which could result in annualized service revenue from multiple contracts with terms of 10 to 15 years. The effect of this treatment would be to build a base of long-term recurring revenue vs. up-front equipment revenue. After the first transfer to the LLC, we anticipate transferring newly installed equipment and receiving payment on a regular basis. The ComEd agreement is expected to result in shipments of approximately 1,500 units over the next 18 to 24 months. EnergySaver shipments are expected to increase in the second half of 2004 as a result of the ComEd program in combination with continuing and new sales to commercial customers. We are currently negotiating possible changes to the ComEd contract, which among other things could significantly increase the size of the program and provide other benefits to the Company.

Revenue from the sale of building automation products and services decreased approximately $195,000, or 32% to $408,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 2004, from approximately $603,000 recorded in the same period of 2003. Revenue in this segment is recognized as work is completed and material is delivered to the job site, thus will vary based on the level of activity during a particular period. This segment completed two of the five long-term projects it was working on during the fourth quarter of 2003 and anticipates completing another project during the third quarter of 2004. We are hoping to begin work on one or two long term projects before the end of 2004 and have been working on various short term retro-fit projects in the interim. We expect the revenue for this segment to remain largely unchanged in future periods from the level realized in the most recent quarterly reporting period.

Cost of sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 declined $902,858, or 60.2% to $597,082 from $1,499,940 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2004 declined $210,326 to a loss of $41,545 from a profit of $168,781 in the second quarter of 2003. The

-18-


Table of Contents

decline in gross profit is primarily due to the decline in revenue. In addition, the Building Automation and Controls segment defers recognition of all job related profits until the completion of the associated project and did not complete any long-term projects during the second quarter of 2004. This segment anticipates completing one of its long-term projects during the third quarter of 2004, at which time it will recognize any profit associated with the project. Profits in the EnergySaver business are in part influenced by sales volume due to the fixed nature of our manufacturing overhead. As volume increases as a result of the ComEd project, this fixed overhead will be spread over more production, which should contribute to an improvement in the gross margin in this business segment.

SG&A for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 declined $128,541, or 11.7% to $974,470, from $1,103,011 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. Reductions in sales commissions and investor relations expenses were the largest contributors to the reduction in SG&A expense. We expect our SG&A expense to increase slightly over the balance of the year as we add additional headcount to ensure proper execution of the ComEd contract.

Other expense for the three-month period ending June 30, 2004 increased $118,115, to $129,133 from $11,018 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. Interest expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 includes amortization of the deferred issuance costs and debt discount related to the Laurus convertible term loan totaling $117,897. Interest income of $7,372 for the second quarter of 2004 was $6,052 higher than that recorded in the second quarter of 2003 due to higher invested cash balances.

During the second quarter of 2003 we agreed to sell substantially all of the assets and most of the liabilities of our Power Management business to a group of investors that included members of the segment’s management. The sale closed on June 3, 2003, effective as of May 31, 2003. As required by SFAS 144 the operating results as well as the loss on disposal for this segment have been presented as discontinued operations. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 we recorded an operating loss of $57,691 for the segment as well as a $764,148 loss on the disposal of the segment.

Our dividend expense for the second quarter of 2004 decreased $376,368 to $622,884 from $999,252 for the same period in 2003. We accrued dividends of $325,600 and $612,268 on our Convertible Preferred Stock during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The dividends accrued during the second quarter of 2004 were satisfied through the issuance of 3,256 additional shares of our Series E convertible preferred stock, while the dividends accrued during the second quarter of 2003 were satisfied through the issuance of 61,227 shares of our Series A, C and D convertible preferred stock. We were required to recognize non-cash deemed dividends of $289,784 on June 30, 2004 due to the fact that the conversion price on the shares issued in satisfaction of the accrued dividend had a conversion price that was lower than the market price of our common stock on the date of issue. The closing market price of our stock on June 30, 2004 was $1.89 as compared to $0.95 on June 30, 2003. During the second quarter of 2004 we also incurred a $7,500 deemed dividend when we agreed to extend the expiration date on warrants to purchase shares of our Series E Convertible Preferred stock from October 31, 2004 to December 31, 2004. We agreed to extend these warrants to permit holders who participated in the redemption and exchange more time to exercise their warrants so that if they choose to exercise they can do so without violating the short swing trading rules of section 16(b) of the Securities Act of 1934 or our insider trading policy which prohibits the trading of our securities during certain blackout periods prior to the filing of our financial statements. Dividend expense for the second quarter of 2003 included a $386,984 non-cash deemed dividend associated with the sale of the Series D Convertible Preferred stock.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2003.

Our total revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 declined $1,447,695 or 51.3% to $1,371,779 as compared to $2,819,474 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Revenue related to EnergySaver sales declined approximately $1,074,000, or 69%, to approximately $471,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $1,545,000 for the same period in 2003.

EnergySavers unit sales declined 71% to 49 units during the first six months of 2004 (not including units shipped under the ComEd VNPP) from 169 units sold during the first six months of 2003. The decline in EnergySaver revenue is primarily the result of a shift in the market’s response to the Company’s new utility initiative, and in particular the ComEd and Xcel VNPPs. The Company’s in-house sales resources have been focusing on signing up hosts to participate in the ComEd program rather than on making commercial sales. The Company continues to rely upon third party distributors and dealers for direct sales of EnergySavers in markets where a VNPP does not exist. We began shipment of product under the ComEd program in late 2003 with continued shipments during the first half of 2004, but we have not recognized revenue on any of these shipments pending completion of an agreement to transfer the equipment and the ComEd contract to third part LLC (for additional information please see the discussion of the second quarter results above).

Revenue from the sale of building automation products and services declined approximately $373,000, or 29% to $901,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2004, from approximately $1,274,000 recorded in the same period of 2003. Revenue in this segment is recognized as work is completed and material is delivered to the job site, thus will vary based on the level of activity during a particular period. The segment had several large projects that were particularly active during the first half of 2003 which contributed to the higher level of revenue during that period. All but one of these projects has since been completed and been replaced by another long term project and various smaller projects that the segment is working on during 2004. We expect revenue for this segment to remain at current levels through the balance of 2004.

Cost of sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 totaled $1,383,091 as compared to $2,616,443 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Gross profit for the first six months of 2004 decreased $214,343 to a loss of $11,312 from a profit of $203,031 during the same period in 2003. The decline in gross profit is primarily due to the decline in revenue. In addition, the Building Automation and Controls segment defers recognition of all job related profits until the completion of the associated project and did not complete any long-term projects during the first half of 2004. This segment anticipates completing one of its long-term projects during the third quarter of 2004, at which time it will recognize any profit associated with the project.

SG&A for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 declined $122,229 or 5.8% to $2,002,109, as compared to $2,124,338 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Contributing to the decline in SG&A were reductions in salary expense, sales commissions and charges related to investor relation services. These reductions were partially offset by increases in legal and marketing expenses.

Other expense for the six-month period ending June 30, 2004 increased $465,997 to $489,455 from $23,458 for the same period in 2003. Interest expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 included amortization of the deferred issuance costs and debt discount related to the Laurus convertible term loan of $464,948. Interest income of $11,736 for the first half of 2004 was $8,749 higher than the same period in the prior year due to higher invested cash balances.

During the first half of 2003 we agreed to sell substantially all of the assets and to transfer most of the liabilities of our Power Management segment to a group of investors that included members of the segment’s management. The sale closed on June 3, 2003, effective as of May 31, 2003. As required by SFAS 144 the operating results as well as the loss on disposal for this segment have been presented as discontinued operations. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 we recorded an operating loss of $302,503 and a $764,148 loss on the disposal of the segment.

Our dividend expense for the first half of 2004 increased $1,953,661 to $3,786,905 from $1,833,244 for the same period in 2003. We accrued dividends of $983,500 and $1,207,977 on our Convertible Preferred Stock during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The dividends accrued during the first six months of 2004 and 2003 were satisfied through the issuance of additional shares of our preferred stock. We were required to recognize non-cash deemed dividends of $927,947 and $217,119 during the first six months of 2004 and 2003, respectively, due to the fact that the conversion

-20-


Table of Contents

price on these dividend shares was lower than the market price of our common stock on the date of issue. The increase in this deemed dividend is primarily the result of the increased difference in the market price of our common stock relative to the conversion price of the dividend shares on the date of issuance of these dividend shares. In addition, despite the fact that the redemption and exchange transaction was favorable for the Company and its common stockholders (see note 9 to the financial statements), we were required to record a non-cash deemed dividend on the transaction of $1,860,458. For accounting purposes the transaction, which closed in March 2004, was viewed as a redemption for cash and shares of Series E Preferred stock. The non-cash deemed dividend was determined by comparing the fair value of the consideration given (the cash and the market value of the Series E Preferred) to the carrying value of the preferred stock that was redeemed. The fair value of the consideration given exceeded the carrying value of the existing preferred primarily due to the fact that the market price of our common stock was higher on the day the redemption and exchange transaction closed than it was when the existing preferred stock was originally issued. During the first half of 2004 we also incurred a $15,000 deemed dividend when we agreed to extend the expiration date on warrants to purchase shares of our Series E Convertible Preferred stock from June 30, 2004 to December 31, 2004. We agreed to extend these warrants to permit holders who participated in the redemption and exchange more time to exercise their warrants so that if they choose to exercise they can do so without violating the short swing trading rules of section 16(b) of the Securities Act of 1934 or our insider trading policy which prohibits the trading of our securities during certain blackout periods prior to the filing of our financial statements. Dividend expenses for the first six months of 2003 also included $386,984 of non-cash deemed dividends associated with the issuance of the Series D Convertible Preferred stock.

As is more fully described in Note 9 to our financial statements, we completed a redemption and exchange offering on March 22, 2004 in which we redeemed 538,462 shares of our outstanding Series A, Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Existing Preferred”), and exchanged the remaining 2,104,509 shares of Existing Preferred into 210,451 shares of a new Series E Convertible Preferred Stock at the rate of 10 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock for each share of Existing Preferred. The Existing Preferred Stock carried a dividend rate of 10% payable at the Company’s election in cash or in additional shares of preferred stock during the first three years following issuance. After the third anniversary of issuance we were required to pay all dividends in cash and the dividend rate increased by 1/2% every six months until it reached 15%, where it would remain until the shares were converted or redeemed. The Series E Preferred carries a 6% dividend that is payable at the Company’s election in cash or additional shares of Series E Preferred for as long as the shares remain outstanding. The reduction in the number of outstanding shares of preferred stock, in combination with the reduction in the dividend rate, will significantly reduce the dilutive effect of the payment-in-kind dividend on the preferred stock in future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,860,205 compared to $2,467,023 on December 31, 2003. Our debt obligations as of June 30, 2004 consisted of a convertible secured term note of $676,790, a mortgage of $616,000 on our facility in Elk Grove Village Illinois, and a vehicle loan of approximately $7,200.

Our principal cash requirements are for operating expenses, including employee costs, the costs related to research and development, advertising costs, the cost of outside services including those providing accounting, legal, engineering and consulting services, and the funding of inventory and accounts receivable, and capital expenditures. We have financed our operations since inception through the private placement of our common stock, preferred stock and various secured and unsecured loans.

Net cash increased $1,393,182 during the first six months of 2004 as compared to increasing $226,904 during the same period in 2003. Cash consumed by operating activities declined 31.4% to $1,871,979 during the first half of 2004 as compared to $2,728,980 during the same period in 2003. Cash used to

fund the net loss before changes in working capital, declined $18,843 or 0.9%, to $2,004,353 during the first six months of 2004 from $2,023,196 during the same period in 2003. The improvements in cash usage related to the disposal of discontinued operations were almost completely offset by reductions in gross profit during the first half of 2004.

Changes in working capital generated cash of $132,374 during the first six months of 2004 as compared to consuming cash of $705,784 during the same period of 2003. Declines in accounts receivable generated $312,247 during the first six months of 2003, while increases in inventory and other current assets consumed $229,097 and $62,100, respectively during the same period. The decline in accounts receivable resulted from receipt of amounts held as retention until completion of larger Building Automation and Controls projects as well as improved collections and the slowdown in sales during the period. The increases in inventory and other current assets were both related to the ramp-up in the ComEd program. Included in inventory are EnergySaver units installed at host locations for the ComEd program for which we have not yet recognized revenue. Other current assets include installation and shipping costs related to these EnergySaver units. Declines in accounts payable and accrued expenses consumed cash of $359,133 and $67,440, respectively during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. The decline in accounts payable is primarily the result of payments by Great Lakes to subcontractors who worked on long term projects that were completed in the fourth quarter of 2003. The decline in accrued expenses is primarily due to the payment of accrued California sales taxes which are paid in January of every year. Increases in deferred revenue and customer deposits offset the decline in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Deferred revenue increased $49,065 as a result of the deferred recognition of profits on building automation projects and other current assets increased $488,833 due to the receipt of a $500,000 pre-payment from ComEd for curtailment capacity which was recorded as a customer deposit. An increase in accounts receivable and other assets of $1,438,211 during the first half of 2003 was offset by a decline in inventory of $604,330. The increase in accounts receivable was due in large part to the increase in sales in the Building Automation and Controls segment and a general slow down in receivables turnover in both segments. The decline in inventory came primarily from the Energy Technology segment where we purposely worked to reduce inventory levels. The combination of changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses generated $80,549 of cash during the first half of 2003 primarily related to the increase in business activity in both business segments during the period.

Investing activities consumed cash of $11,804 during the six-month period ending June 30, 2004 as compared to generating $913,743 during the same period in 2003. We invested $11,804 and $15,289 in new equipment during the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. In June 2003, we sold certain assets and transferred certain liabilities of our Power Management business, generating cash proceeds of $929,032.

Financing activities generated cash of $3,276,965 and $2,042,141 during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. During 2004, we raised $11,000,000 through the issuance of a package of securities that included shares of our common stock and 5 year warrants to purchase additional shares of common stock. We used $7,000,006 of the net proceeds from this issuance to effectuate a redemption and exchange offer for our Series A, Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. We incurred expenses related to these transactions of $897,135. During the period we also made scheduled principal payments on our mortgage and auto loan of $19,542 and received $193,648 in net proceeds from the exercise of warrants to purchase shares of our common and preferred stock. During 2003, we entered into several private placement transactions in which we sold securities including shares of our common stock, shares of our Series D Convertible Preferred stock, preferred stock warrants and common stock warrants, generating gross proceeds of $3,169,914, which was partially offset by issuance costs of $301,290. We used a portion of the proceeds generated from the sale of our Power Management segment to repay $298,000 in equipment loans and to paydown the outstanding balance on our revolving line of credit of $500,000. We made scheduled principal payments of $66,281 on various loans during the first half of 2003 and borrowed $10,000 to finance the purchase of new equipment. In April of 2003, the holder of a common stock warrant paid $27,000 to exercise his right to purchase common stock at $1.00

per share. We also received a payment of $798 during the first half of 2003 from a shareholder, which represented the short-swing profit inadvertently earned when he purchased shares of our stock within six months of selling shares, which is a violation of section 16(b) of the Securities Act of 1934.

Our mortgage with American Chartered Bank matures on February 1, 2005, at which time we will owe a balloon payment of $595,000, unless we refinance or extend the mortgage prior to the maturity. It is our intent to attempt to refinance the mortgage with American Chartered Bank or another lender prior to the end of 2004.

We currently have a $2 million convertible revolving credit facility with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”). The revolving credit facility provides for borrowings of up to the lesser of (i) $2 million or (ii) 90% of our eligible accounts receivable. We have not borrowed under the facility, thus it remains fully available to the extent of our eligible receivables. As of June 30, 2004 eligible receivables would support borrowings of approximately $736,000 under the facility. The revolving credit facility expires on September 11, 2005 and accrues interest at the rate of prime (currently 4.25%) plus 1.75%. We have the option of paying interest and principal, or prepaying all or a portion of the advances under each Secured Convertible Revolving Note, with shares of our common stock at the fixed conversion price of $2.12 per share, provided that the closing price of our common stock is greater than $2.43 per share for the 11 trading days immediately proceeding the payment date and that the shares are registered with Securities and Exchange Commission. We have filed a registration statement with respect to these shares. In addition, Laurus has the option to convert all or a portion of the advances under any Secured Convertible Revolving Note into shares of our common stock at any time, subject to certain limitations, at a fixed conversion price of $2.12 per share. The revolving credit facility is secured by a blanket lien on all of our assets, except for our real estate.

Our ability to continue the development, manufacturing and the expansion of sales of our products, including the EnergySaver, the GlobalCommander, VNPP and building automation products, will require the continued commitment of significant funds. The actual timing and amount of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the amount and timing of future revenues, our ability to collect our receivables in a timely manner, the level and amount of our product marketing and sales efforts, the magnitude of research and development, and our ability to improve margins.

In an attempt to move the Company to a position where it can start to generate positive cash flow our management has set the following key objectives for cash flow improvement in 2004:

  Successfully execute on the ComEd contract. Executing on ComEd includes signing up hosts, installing equipment and transferring the equipment and contract to a third party investor. We believe that this is important from several different perspectives. First we anticipate that it will have a positive impact on our cash flow. Secondly, we believe it will establish Electric City as a leader in negative power development, thereby supporting VNPP opportunities with other utilities. And finally we believe it will lead to increased commercial sales of the EnergySaver as hosts who participate in the ComEd VNPP but also have operations outside the ComEd territory gain exposure to the technology. This project is under contract, therefore we are focusing a great deal of our resources on this project and have hired and will be hiring additional personnel as part of our efforts to keep this project on schedule.

  Increase the profitability of EnergySaver sales. Increasing the margins earned on EnergySaver sales will also have an immediate and positive impact on our cash flow. We have seen improvements in EnergySaver margins over the past two years, but believe that the product has the potential for significantly higher margins. We believe that increased volumes that will result from the ComEd program will lead to higher margins as a result of increased capacity utilization. In addition, a price increase that we implemented effective January 1, 2004 should also lead to improved profitability of the EnergySaver.

  Build on the recent project successes at Great Lakes Controlled Energy to make the Building Controls and Automation business become profitable. Great Lakes has recently been awarded new business and is currently working on existing projects that we believe will result in this segment turning profitable during 2004. This segment must execute effectively in order to realize the profitability potential of these projects.

  Continue to aggressively manage our costs in order to conserve cash. While we made significant progress in reducing our costs during the last two years, we must continue to effectively manage all of our costs so that they do not negate the anticipated improvement in profitability in our Energy Technology and Building Automation and Control segments.

  Be prepared to raise additional capital in limited amounts if necessary to continue to fund operations until the business turns cash flow positive. Our ability to raise additional capital in the future will depend a great deal on our ability to make progress toward the goals outline above.

We believe that if we are successful in achieving these priorities we should have sufficient liquidity to allow us to operate until our operations turn cash flow positive, hopefully sometime during 2005. Our projections contain certain key assumptions which may or may not occur. If any of the key assumptions contained in our projections are proven wrong, we may begin to experience a liquidity shortage sometime in 2005 that could force us to scale back our growth plans, or, in the worst case, cease operations.

If in the future we find that we need to raise additional capital (which may require stockholder approval), our existing stockholders will likely experience dilution of their present equity ownership position and voting rights, depending upon the number of shares issued and the terms and conditions of the issuance. Any new equity securities will likely have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stock.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The only significant exposure we have to market risk at this time is the risk of changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on our debt facilities are variable and change with changes in the prime rate. The interest rate on our convertible term loan is equal to the prime rate (currently 4.25%) plus 1.75% or 6%, whichever is greater. The interest rate on our mortgage is equal to the prime rate plus 1/2%. If the prime rate were to increase 1 percentage point, the annual interest cost on the term loan and mortgage would increase by approximately $11,000.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

a.   Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
 
    Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
 
b.   Changes in internal controls.
 
    There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls during the period covered by this report.
 
c.   Disclosure controls and procedures.
 
    Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure 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 Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

ITEM 2. Changes In Securities

(1)   On June 16, the holder of a warrant to purchase 94 shares of our Series E Convertible Preferred Stock at $100.00 per share exercised the warrant in full.

(2)   On June 22, 2004, the holder of a warrant to purchase 160,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share exercised the warrant in full.

(3)   On June 29, 2004, the holder of a warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share exercised the warrant in full.

(4)   On May 26, 2004, the Board of Directors declared dividends payable on our Series E Convertible Preferred Stock for the calendar quarter ending June 30, 2004 to shareholders of record of our Series E Convertible Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2004. The dividends were paid with 3,256 additional shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 100 shares of our common stock. The Company recorded a non-cash deemed dividend of $289,784 related to the issuance of these dividend shares due to the fact that the conversion price on the dividend shares was lower than the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issue.

No underwriters were involved in any of the transactions described above. All of the securities issued in the foregoing transactions were issued by us in reliance upon the exemption from registration available under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, including Regulation D promulgated thereunder, in that the transactions involved the issuance and sale of our securities to financially sophisticated individuals or entities that were aware of our activities and business and financial condition and took the securities for investment purposes and understood the ramifications of their actions. The purchasers also represented that they were “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D and/or were acquiring such securities for investment for their own account and not for distribution. Other than the shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the warrants referred to in (2) and (3) above, which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, all certificates representing the common stock so issued have a legend imprinted on them stating that the shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be transferred until properly registered under the Securities Act or an exemption applies. Proceeds of the sales referred to in (1), (2) and (3) above were used for general corporate purposes.

ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On May 26, 2004, we held our annual meeting of stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. At the annual meeting, six nominees to our Board of Directors were elected to hold office for a one year term ending at our 2005 annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors were duly elected and qualified. The number of directors has been set at 12 by resolution of the Board. As of the record date of April 20, 2004, there were 40,922,021 shares of our common stock outstanding.

If less than 20,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, unless otherwise provided by law, each holder of record of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock has the right to vote on an as-converted basis together with the holders of Common Stock on all matters on which holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote, including the election of directors.

On April 20, 2004, the preferred stockholders held 217,030 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock. Accordingly, the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock were entitled to elect up to four directors (out of 12) to our board.

As of the record date, there were 40,922,021 shares of our common stock eligible to be voted for the election of directors, of which 36,759,287 shares or 89.8% were represented in person or by proxy at our annual meeting.
