RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 compared to Three and
Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Revenues. Revenues in the current year benefited from U.S.
government grant programs, resulting in increased sales for
fulfillment of orders from Smith Electric Vehicles as well as
Navistar Inc. The increase in revenue for the six months ended June
30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 was mainly due to the
delivery of drive systems to Smith Electric Vehicles and Navistar.
Revenues were also attributed to continued shipments to First Auto
Works and HCATT in the first quarter of 2011. Revenues increased in
the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010
mainly due to deliveries to Smith Electric Vehicles in both the
United States and the United Kingdom. Although we have seen
indications for future production growth, there can be no assurance
there will be continuing demand for our products and services.
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists of component and
material costs, direct labor costs, integration costs and overhead
related to manufacturing our products as well as inventory
valuation reserve amounts. Cost of revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year
increased primarily due to the increase in revenue for the six
months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior
year. The decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues
in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared same period in
2010 was attributable to improved product mix for our core power
control products as well as continuous cost improvement
efforts.
Gross Profit. The increase in gross profit for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in the
prior year is primarily attributable to manufacturing efficiencies
from higher production volumes in the second quarter and improved
product mix. We continue to focus on key customer production
contracts, maturity of our supply chain, and efficiencies gained
through increased in-house manufacturing and inventory processes
that have resulted in tighter controls over production costs. As we
make deliveries on production contracts in 2011, we expect to
achieve continued benefit from these initiatives, although we may
continue to experience variability in our gross margin.
Research and Development ("R&D"). R&D costs increased
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the
same periods in the prior year as we devoted increased engineering
personnel resources to the development of our next generation
Omni-series motor control unit, 10kW charger and DC/DC converter,
as well as the continued testing of our EV vehicles, new battery
technologies and electric motors. We also continued to allocate
necessary resources to the development and testing of upgraded
proprietary control software for customer applications.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses ("S, G & A").
S, G & A is comprised of activities in the executive, finance,
marketing, field service and quality departments' compensation as
well as related payroll benefits, and non-cash charges for
depreciation and options expense. The decrease in S, G & A for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same
period in the prior year is attributable the Company's
implementation of cost savings measures that will continue to be
sustained in our cost structure. We constantly monitor S, G & A
in light of our business outlook.
Interest and Other Income (Expense). Interest and other expense
increased in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the
same period in the prior year due to a net loss on a litigation
settlement and the disposal of a fixed asset. Interest and other
expense increased in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared
to the same period in the prior year due to the disposal of a fixed
asset.
Net Loss. The decrease in the net loss for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in the
prior year was mainly due to improved gross margins resulting in an
increase in gross profit and our continued efforts to control
administrative costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We have experienced losses primarily attributable to research,
development, marketing and other costs associated with our
strategic plan as an international developer and supplier of
electric drive and power management systems and components.
Historically cash flows from operations have not been sufficient to
meet our obligations and we have had to raise funds through several
financing transactions. At least until we reach breakeven volume in
sales and develop and/or acquire the capability to manufacture and
sell our products profitably, we will need to continue to rely on
cash from external financing sources. Our operations during the six
months ended June 30, 2011 were financed by product sales as well
as from working capital reserves.
On June 30, 2010, the Company entered into a secured a revolving
credit facility with a financial institution for $200,000 which was
secured by a $200,000 certificate of deposit. The facility is for a
period of 3 years and 6 months from July 1, 2010 to December 31,
2013. The interest rate on a drawdown from the facility is the
certificate of deposit rate plus 1.25% with interest payable
monthly and the principal due at maturity. The financial
institution also renewed the $200,000 irrevocable letter of credit
for the full amount of the credit facility in favor of Sunshine
Distribution LP, with respect to the lease of the Company's
corporate headquarters at 1560 West 190th Street, Torrance,
California.
Net cash used in operating activities was $5,005,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $2,327,000 compared to
$2,678,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in
cash used in 2011 was primarily due to a net decrease of total
liabilities of $2,618,000, of which the major factors were payments
made for the partial litigation settlement with Arens Controls
L.L.C., inventory purchases utilized in 2010-Q4 and 2011-Q1 sales
and employee incentive bonus accruals. Non-cash items include
expense for stock-based compensation, depreciation and
amortization, issuance of common stock for employee services and
other losses. These non-cash items increased by $99,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in the
prior year primarily due to an increase in reserves and non-cash
losses. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the increase
in gross margin when comparing the six months ended 2011 and 2010.
We continued to conserve cash resources by restricting
administrative and general expenditures. As of June 30, 2011, the
Company had $3,242,000 of cash and cash equivalents compared to
$8,431,000 as of December 31, 2010.
Net cash used in investing activities for capital expenditures
was $193,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to
$188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was
primarily attributable to continued acquisition of testing
equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $9,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2011, compared to net cash used in financing
activities of $9,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This
increase was primarily attributed to proceeds from the exercise of
stock options.
Net accounts receivable decreased by $95,000, or 3%, to
$2,755,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $2,850,000 at
December 31, 2010. The decrease in the receivable balance was due
to a decrease in the volume of sales in the second quarter in 2011
compared to the last quarter of 2010 offset by cash collections in
the current period. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the
Company maintained a reserve for doubtful accounts receivable of
$58,000 and $29,000, respectively.
Net inventory and supplies increased by $50,000, or 1%, to
$4,505,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $4,455,000 at
December 31, 2010. The increase resulted from net inventory
activity including receipts totaling $3,537,000, consumption of
$3,283,000 and an inventory reserve charge of $204,000. The primary
reason for the net increase in inventory activity was attributable
to materials received in connection with a litigation settlement in
the first quarter 2011. These materials were used in the second
quarter of 2011 and will be used to satisfy future production
schedule requirements through the remainder of 2011.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased by $271,000,
or 56%, to $211,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of
$482,000 at December 31, 2010. The decrease was due to receipts of
inventory related to deposits on purchase orders and a decrease in
prepaid insurance.
Long term accounts receivable increased by $45,000, or 45%, to
$145,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $100,000 at
December 31, 2010. The Company agreed to defer collection of
certain accounts receivable as requested by a customer for the term
of the Company's warranty guarantee. The Company continues to
remedy all warranty claims and therefore anticipates collection of
the receivable.
Property and equipment, net of depreciation, decreased by
$84,000, or 7%, to $1,088,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a
balance of $1,172,000 at December 31, 2010. The decrease is
primarily due to the disposal of a fixed asset and depreciation
expense of $253,000, which was partially offset by additions to
fixed assets totaling $218,000 in the first six months of 2011.
Accounts payable decreased by $1,435,000, or 78%, to $412,000 at
June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $1,847,000 at December 31,
2010. The decrease was primarily due to payments in 2011 for
inventory purchases made in 2010 in support of customer sales in
the fourth quarter of 2010 and first quarter of 2011.
Deferred revenues increased by $67,000, or 216%, to $98,000 at
June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $31,000 at December 31,
2010. The balance at June 30, 2011 is anticipated to be realized
into revenue in the third quarter of 2011 and is associated with
prepayments on purchase orders from certain customers.
Accrued payroll and related expenses decreased by $329,000, or
36%, to $593,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $922,000
at December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to 2011
payments of accrued 2010 executive and employee incentive
bonuses.
Other accrued liabilities decreased by $972,000, or 56%, to
$767,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $1,739,000 at
December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to payments for
accrued losses on the partial litigation settlement with Arens
Controls Company L.L.C. in January 2011 and 2011 payments for
accrued professional services. In addition, the accrued warranty
balance at June 30, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 decreased as
costs for warranty repairs were greater than warranty accruals for
sales during the first half of 2011.
Accrued interest payable increased by $40,000, or 3%, to
$1,196,000 at June 30, 2011 compared to a balance of $1,156,000 at
December 31, 2010. The increase was due to interest related to our
debt instruments, primarily the secured note payable in the amount
of $1,238,000 to the Credit Managers Association of California.
Going concern
Our ongoing operations and anticipated growth will require us to
make necessary investments in human and production resources,
regulatory compliance, as well as sales and marketing efforts. We
do not currently have adequate internal liquidity to meet these
objectives in the long term. To do so, we will need to continue to
look for partnering opportunities and other external sources of
liquidity, including the public and private financial markets and
strategic partners. We may not be able to obtain financing
arrangements in amounts or on terms acceptable to us in the future.
In the event we are unable to obtain additional financing when
needed, and without substantial reductions in development programs
and strategic initiatives, we do not expect that our cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to fund
our operating and capital needs for the twelve months following
June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit
of approximately $147.3 million, working capital of approximately
$9.0 million and total shareholders' equity of approximately $7.7
million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Overview
Enova believes it is a leader in the development, design and
production of proprietary, power train systems and related
components for electric and hybrid electric buses and medium and
heavy duty commercial vehicles. Electric drive systems are
comprised of an electric motor, electronics control unit and a gear
unit which power a vehicle. Hybrid electric systems, which are
similar to pure electric drive systems, contain an internal
combustion engine in addition to the electric motor, and may
eliminate external recharging of the battery system. A hydrogen
fuel cell based system is similar to a hybrid system, except that
instead of an internal combustion engine, a fuel cell is utilized
as the power source. A fuel cell is a system which combines
hydrogen and oxygen in a chemical process to produce
electricity.
A fundamental element of Enova's strategy is to develop and
produce advanced proprietary software and hardware for applications
in these alternative power markets. Our focus is powertrain systems
including digital power conversion, power management and system
integration, focusing chiefly on vehicle power generation.
Specifically, we develop, design and produce drive systems and
related components for electric, hybrid electric and fuel cell
powered vehicles in both the new and retrofit markets. We also
perform internal research and development ("R&D") and funded
third party R&D to augment our product development and support
our customers.
Our product development strategy is to design and introduce to
market successively advanced products, each based on our core
technical competencies. In each of our product/market segments, we
provide products and services to leverage our core competencies in
digital power management, power conversion and system integration.
We believe that the underlying technical requirements shared among
the market segments will allow us to more quickly transition from
one emerging market to the next, with the goal of capturing early
market share.
Enova's primary market focus centers on aligning ourselves with
key customers and integrating with original equipment manufacturers
("OEMs") in our target markets. We believe that alliances will
result in the latest technology being implemented and customer
requirements being met, with an optimized level of additional time
and expense. As we penetrate new market areas, we are continually
refining both our market strategy and our product line to maintain
our leading edge in power management and conversion systems for
vehicle applications.
Our website, www.enovasystems.com, contains up-to-date
information on our company, our products, programs and current
events. Our website is a prime focal point for current and
prospective customers, investors and other affiliated parties
seeking additional information on our business.
Enova has incurred significant operating losses in the past. As
of June 30, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately
$147.3 million. We expect to incur additional operating losses
until we achieve a level of product sales sufficient to cover our
operating and other expenses. However, the Company believes that
its business outlook will improve as our new product initiatives
improve penetration into key markets and government policies being
implemented in the United States, China and the United Kingdom
regarding the curbing of green house emissions that may induce
consumption of our products and services.

required for large electric vehicles. The new converter will be
available in 12V or 24V output configurations. Validation testing
is planned to begin summer 2011 with introduction discussions
already underway with various customers.
Enova continues to mature its long-standing relationship with
Valence on energy-oriented battery packs, as well as evaluate
technologies offered by A123, Samsung/Bosch and Dow Kokam.
We continue to receive greater recognition from both
governmental and private industry with regards to both commercial
and military application of our hybrid drive systems and fuel cell
power management technologies. Although we believe that current

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
1. Description of the Company and its Business
Enova Systems, Inc., ("Enova", "We" or "the Company"), a
California corporation, was incorporated in July 1976, and trades
on the NYSE Amex Equities under the trading symbol "ENA" and on the
London Stock Exchange under the symbol "ENV-GB". The Company is a
globally recognized leader as a supplier of efficient,
environmentally-friendly digital power components and systems
products, in conjunction with associated engineering services. The
Company's core competencies are focused on the commercialization of
power management and conversion systems for mobile and stationary
applications.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation - Interim Financial Statements
The financial information as of June 30, 2011 and for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is unaudited but
includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair
statement of its financial position at such dates and the operating
results and cash flows for those periods. The year-end balance
sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, and
certain information and note disclosures normally included in
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to SEC rules or regulations; however, the Company believes
the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Although management believes these estimates and
assumptions are adequate, actual results could differ from the
estimates and assumptions used.
The results of operations for the interim periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for the fiscal year. These interim financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2010, which are included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has experienced and continues to experience
operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, as well
as an ongoing requirement for substantial additional capital
investment. At June 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of approximately $147.3 million, working capital of
approximately $9.0 million and shareholders' equity of
approximately $7.7 million. Over the past years, the Company has
been funded through a combination of debt, lease financing and
public equity offerings. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $3.2
million in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company expects that it will need to raise additional
capital to fully pursue its business plan over the long term and is
currently pursuing a variety of funding options. There can be no
assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing
and capital might be available. If the Company is not successful in
its efforts to raise additional funds, the Company may be required
to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of its
development programs. Without substantial reductions or
eliminations of its development programs, the Company does not
expect that its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to
fund its operating and capital needs for the twelve months
following June 30, 2011.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets
and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The accompanying financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to
US GAAP. There have been no significant changes in the Company's
significant accounting policies during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2011 compared to what was previously disclosed in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010.
Revenue Recognition
The Company manufactures proprietary products and other products
based on design specifications provided by its customers. The
Company recognizes revenue only when all of the following criteria
have been met:
-- Persuasive Evidence of an Arrangement - The Company documents
all terms of an arrangement in a written contract signed by the
customer prior to recognizing revenue.
-- Delivery Has Occurred or Services Have Been Rendered - The
Company performs all services or delivers all products prior to
recognizing revenue. Professional consulting and engineering
services are considered to be performed when the services are
complete. Equipment is considered delivered upon delivery to a
customer's designated location. In certain instances, the customer
elects to take title upon shipment.
-- The Fee for the Arrangement is Fixed or Determinable - Prior
to recognizing revenue, a customer's fee is either fixed or
determinable under the terms of the written contract. Fees for
professional consulting services, engineering services and
equipment sales are fixed under the terms of the written contract.
The customer's fee is negotiated at the outset of the arrangement
and is not subject to refund or adjustment during the initial term
of the arrangement.
-- Collectibility is Reasonably Assured - The Company determines
that collectibility is reasonably assured prior to recognizing
revenue. Collectibility is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis
based on criteria outlined by management. New customers are subject
to a credit review process which evaluates the customer's financial
position and ultimately its ability to pay. The Company does not
enter into arrangements unless collectibility is reasonably assured
at the outset. Existing customers are subject to ongoing credit
evaluations based on payment history and other factors. If it is
determined during the arrangement that collectibility is not
reasonably assured, revenue is recognized on a cash basis. Amounts
received upfront for engineering or development fees under
multiple-element arrangements are deferred and recognized over the
period of committed services or performance, if such arrangements
require the Company to provide on-going services or performance.
All amounts received under collaborative research agreements or
research and development contracts are nonrefundable, regardless of
the success of the underlying research.
The Company recognizes revenue from milestone payments over the
remaining minimum period of performance obligations.
The Company also recognizes engineering and construction
contract revenues using the percentage-of-completion method, based
primarily on contract costs incurred to date compared with total
estimated contract costs. Customer-furnished materials, labor, and
equipment, and in certain cases subcontractor materials, labor, and
equipment, are included in revenues and cost of revenues when
management believes that the company is responsible for the
ultimate acceptability of the project. Contracts are segmented
between types of services, such as engineering and construction,
and accordingly, revenue and gross margin related to each activity
is recognized as those separate services are rendered.
Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are
recognized in the period in which they are determined. Claims
against customers are recognized as revenue upon settlement.
Revenues recognized in excess of amounts received are classified as
current assets. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenues
recognized to date are classified as current liabilities on
contracts.
Changes in project performance and conditions, estimated
profitability, and final contract settlements may result in future
revisions to engineering and development contract costs and
revenue.
These accounting policies were applied consistently for all
periods presented. Our operating results would be affected if other
alternatives were used. Information about the impact on our
operating results is included in the footnotes to our financial
statements.
Several other factors related to the Company may have a
significant impact on our operating results from year to year. For
example, the accounting rules governing the timing of revenue
recognition related to product contracts are complex and it can be
difficult to estimate when we will recognize revenue generated by a
given transaction. Factors such as acceptance of services provided,
payment terms, creditworthiness of the customer, and timing of
delivery or acceptance of our products often cause revenues related
to sales generated in one period to be deferred and recognized in
later periods. For arrangements in which services revenue is
deferred, related direct and incremental costs may also be
deferred.
Deferred Revenues
The Company recognizes revenues as earned. Amounts billed in
advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as
a liability under deferred revenues. The Company has entered into
several production and development contracts with customers. The
Company has evaluated these contracts, ascertained the specific
revenue generating activities of each contract, and established the
units of accounting for each activity. Revenue on these units of
accounting is not recognized until a) there is persuasive evidence
of the existence of a contract, b) the service has been rendered
and delivery has occurred, c) there is a fixed and determinable
price, and d) collectability is reasonable assured.
Warranty Costs
The Company provides product warranties for specific product
lines and accrues for estimated future warranty costs in the period
in which revenue is recognized. Our products are generally
warranted to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of 12 to 24 months from the date of installation, subject to
standard limitations for equipment that has been altered by other
than Enova Systems personnel and equipment which has been subject
to negligent use. Warranty provisions are based on past experience
of product returns, number of units repaired and our historical
warranty incidence over the past twenty-four month period. The
warranty liability is evaluated on an ongoing basis for adequacy
and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected
warranty costs becomes known.
Stock Based Compensation
We measure the compensation cost for stock-based awards
classified as equity at their fair value on the date of grant and
recognize compensation expense over the service period for awards
expected to vest, net of estimated forfeitures.
See Note 10 Stock Options for further information on stock-based
compensation expense.

10. Stock Options
Stock Option Program Description
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had two equity compensation
plans, the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan") and the 2006
equity compensation plan (the "2006 Plan"). The 1996 Plan has
expired for the purposes of issuing new grants. However, the 1996
Plan will continue to govern awards previously granted under that
plan. The 2006 Plan has been approved by the Company's
Shareholders. Equity compensation grants are designed to reward
employees and executives for their long term contributions to the
Company and to provide incentives for them to remain with the
Company. The number and frequency of equity compensation grants are
based on competitive practices, operating results of the company,
and government regulations.
The 2006 Plan has a total of 3,000,000 shares reserved for
issuance, of which 1,614,000 shares were available for grant as of
June 30, 2011. All stock options have terms of between five and ten
years and generally vest and become fully exercisable from one to
three years from the date of grant.
As of June 30, 2011, the total compensation cost related to
non-vested awards not yet recognized is $319,000. The weighted
average period over which the future compensation cost is expected
to be recognized is 18 months.
The following table summarizes information about stock options
outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2011:

(1) Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of
the closing price per share of our common stock on
the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess
of the exercise price multiplied by the number of
options outstanding or exercisable, except for the
"Exercised" line, which uses the closing price on
the date exercised.
(2) Number of shares includes options vested and those
expected to vest net of estimated forfeitures.
The exercise prices of the options outstanding at June 30, 2011
ranged from $0.21 to $4.35. The weighted average grant-date fair
value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2011
was $0.79. There were no options granted during the six months
ended June 30, 2010. The Company's policy is to issue shares from
its authorized shares upon the exercise of stock options.
Unvested share activity for the six months ended June 30, 2011
is summarized below:
Weighted-
Unvested Average

Unvested balance at June 30,
2011................................................................................................................. 353,000 $ 0.91
The fair values of all stock options granted during the six
months ended June 30, 2011 were estimated on the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
range of assumptions:
For the six months ended
June 30, June 30,
2011 2010
Expected life (in years) 2.5 - 6.5 -
Average risk-free interest rate 2.00% -
Expected volatility 107 - 132% -
Expected dividend yield 0% -
Forfeiture rate 3% -
The estimated fair value of grants of stock options to
nonemployees of the Company is charged to expense in the financial
statements. These options vest in the same manner as the employee
options granted under each of the option plans as described
above.
11. Concentrations
The Company's trade receivables are concentrated with few
customers. The Company performs credit evaluations on its
customers' financial condition. Concentrations of credit risk, with
respect to accounts receivable, exist to the extent of amounts
presented in the financial statements. Two customers represented
65% and 24%, respectively, of total gross accounts receivable at
June 30, 2011, and three customers represented 42%, 21% and 20%,
respectively, of total gross accounts receivable at December 31,
2010.
The Company's revenues are concentrated with few customers. For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, one customer
represented 80% of gross revenues and three customers represented
54%, 19% and 11% of gross revenues, respectively. For the three and
six months ended June 30, 2010, three customers represented 31%,
31% and 24% of gross revenues and three customers represented 43%,
21% and 18% of gross revenues, respectively.
12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June of 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):
Presentation of Comprehensive Income." The amendments in this ASU
require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the
components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive
income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive
income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05
eliminates the option to present the components of other
comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. ASU
2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with
early adoption permitted. The Company has not chosen to early adopt
the provisions of this update. The future adoption of this update
is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.
In May of 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, "Amendments to
Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and disclosure Requirements
in U. S. GAAP & IFRS," which results in common fair value
measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS.
Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe
many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and
for disclosing information about fair value measurements. ASU
2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2011. The future adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not
expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.
There have been no other recent accounting pronouncements issued
applicable to Enova Systems, Inc. other than those disclosed in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2010.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Critical Accounting Policies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a
number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of
results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of
its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company
constantly re-evaluates these significant factors and makes
adjustments where facts and circumstances dictate. Estimates and
assumptions include, but are not limited to, customer receivables,
inventories, equity investments, fixed asset lives, contingencies
and litigation. There have been no material changes in estimates or
assumptions compared to our most recent Annual Report for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
The following represents a summary of our critical accounting
policies, defined as those policies that we believe: (a) are the
most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and
results of operations and (b) involve inherently uncertain issues
which require management's most difficult, subjective or complex
judgments.
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash consists of currency held at
reputable financial institutions.
Inventory - Inventories are priced at the lower of cost or
market utilizing first-in, first-out ("FIFO") cost flow assumption.
We maintain a perpetual inventory system and continuously record
the quantity on-hand and standard cost for each product, including
purchased components, subassemblies and finished goods. We maintain
the integrity of perpetual inventory records through periodic
physical counts of quantities on hand. Finished goods are reported
as inventories until the point of transfer to the customer.
Generally, title transfer is documented in the terms of sale.
Inventory reserve - We maintain an allowance against inventory
for the potential future obsolescence or excess inventory. A
substantial decrease in expected demand for our products, or
decreases in our selling prices could lead to excess or overvalued
inventories and could require us to substantially increase our
allowance for excess inventory. If future customer demand or market
conditions are less favorable than our projections, additional
inventory write-downs may be required, and would be reflected in
cost of revenues in the period the revision is made.
Allowance for doubtful accounts - We maintain allowances for
doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability
of our customers to make required payments. The assessment of the
ultimate realization of accounts receivable including the current
credit-worthiness of each customer is subject to a considerable
degree to the judgment of our management. If the financial
condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting
in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional
allowances may be required.
Stock-based Compensation - The Company calculates stock-based
compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC 718, "Share-Based
Payment" ("FASB ASC 718"). This pronouncement requires the
measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all
share-based payment awards made to employees and directors,
including employee stock options to be based on estimated fair
values.
Revenue recognition - The Company is required to make judgments
based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the
reliability of shipments made to its customers. These judgments are
required to assess the propriety of the recognition of revenue
based on ASC 605 and related guidance. The Company makes these
assessments based on the following factors: i) customer-specific
information, ii) return policies, and iii) historical experience
for issues not yet identified.
The Company manufactures proprietary products and other products
based on design specifications provided by its customers. Revenue
from sales of products are generally recognized at the time title
to the goods and the benefits and risks of ownership passes to the
customer which is typically when products are shipped based on the
terms of the customer purchase agreement. Revenue relating to
long-term fixed price contracts is recognized using the percentage
of completion method. Under the percentage of completion method,
contract revenues and related costs are recognized based on the
percentage that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated
costs. Changes in job performance, estimated profitability and
final contract settlements may result in revisions to cost and
revenue, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions
are determined. Contract costs include all direct materials,
subcontract and labor costs and other indirect costs. General and
administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the
time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the
estimated loss is accrued. The aggregate of costs incurred and
estimated earnings recognized on uncompleted contracts in excess of
related billings is shown as a current asset, and billings on
uncompleted contracts in excess of costs incurred and estimated
earnings is shown as a current liability.
These accounting policies were applied consistently for all
periods presented. Our operating results would be affected if other
alternatives were used. Information about the impact on our
operating results is included in the footnotes to our financial
statements.
Several other factors related to the Company may have a
significant impact on our operating results from year to year. For
example, the accounting rules governing the timing of revenue
recognition related to product contracts are complex and it can be
difficult to estimate when we will recognize revenue generated by a
given transaction. Factors such as acceptance of services provided,
payment terms, creditworthiness of the customer, and timing of
delivery or acceptance of our products often cause revenues related
to sales generated in one period to be deferred and recognized in
later periods. For arrangements in which services revenue is
deferred, related direct and incremental costs may also be
deferred.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
None.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures which
are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information
required to be disclosed in the Company's periodic Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") 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 its principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the Company carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's
management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures for
the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that the Company's internal control over disclosure
controls and procedures was effective as of June 30, 2011.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
Exchange Act) during the six months ended June 30, 2011 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
As reported in our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal
2011, six of the eight counts in the litigation between Enova and
Arens Controls Company, L.L.C. were settled. The two counts that
were not settled remain outstanding and there have been no material
developments with respect thereto during the period covered by this
report.
We are subject to several lawsuits arising out of the conduct of
our business, including matters relating to commercial
transactions. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is
probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We continually
assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes in these matters, as well
as potential ranges of probable losses (taking into consideration
any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each
matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if
applicable, other experts.
Given the uncertainty inherent in litigation, we do not believe
it is possible to develop estimates of the range of reasonably
possible loss for these matters. Considering our past experience,
we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually
or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position. Because most contingencies are
resolved over long periods of time, potential liabilities are
subject to change due to new developments, changes in settlement
strategy or the impact of evidentiary requirements, which could
cause us to pay damage awards or settlements (or become subject to
equitable remedies) that could have a material adverse effect on
our results of operations or operating cash flows in the periods
recognized or paid.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
The risk factors discussed below update the risk factors
previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have
been no other material changes from the risk factors as previously
disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2010.
If we cannot raise adequate capital in the future, we may be
unable to continue our product development, marketing and business,
generally.
We anticipate investing significant resources to fund future
operations, including product development and marketing. We need to
obtain additional funding through public or private equity or debt
financing, collaborative agreements or from other sources. Such
funding, from any source, may not be available when needed or on
favorable terms, particularly in light of the recent tightening of
worldwide credit markets. If we raise additional funds by issuing
equity securities, current shareholders may experience significant
dilution of their holdings. If we cannot raise adequate funds to
satisfy our capital requirements, we may also have to limit, delay,
scale-back or eliminate product development programs, marketing or
other activities. Any of these actions could harm our business.
We are dependent on a limited number of vendors for primary
components of our products.
We have custom made components manufactured according to our
engineering specifications that would take time to reproduce with
other suppliers if a current vendor fails to delivery components
that perform according to our specifications and requirements in a
timely manner. Any disruption to our supply chain, either by our
vendors or the result of a natural disaster, could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations.
