ORION ENERGY SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED NOT ES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization
Orion includes Orion Energy Systems, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation, and all consolidated subsidiaries. Orion provides innovative light emitting diode ("LED") lighting systems and turnkey project implementation including installation and commissioning of fixtures, controls and Internet of Things (“IoT”) systems, as well as ongoing system maintenance and program management. Orion’s products enable customers to reduce their carbon footprint and digitize their business.
Orion’s corporate offices and leased primary manufacturing operations are located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Orion also leases office space in Jacksonville, Florida.
NOTE 2 — IMPACT OF COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted business, trade, commerce, and financial and credit markets in the U.S. and globally. Orion’s business has been adversely impacted by measures taken by government entities and others to control the spread of the virus beginning in March 2020, the last month of its fiscal 2020 year, and continuing most significantly into the second quarter of fiscal 2021. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, Orion experienced a rebound in business, with a full quarter of project installations for its largest customer, as well installations for a new large specialty retail customer, and no significant COVID-19 impacts. However, some customers continue to refrain from awarding new projects and potential future risks remain due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a deemed essential business, Orion provides products and services to ensure energy and lighting infrastructure and Orion therefore continues to operate throughout the pandemic. Orion has implemented a number of safety protocols, including limiting travel, restricting access to our facilities along with monitoring processes, physical distancing, physical barriers, enhanced cleaning procedures, and requiring face coverings.
As part of Orion’s response to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, Orion implemented a number of cost reduction and cash conservation measures, including reducing headcount. Orion recognized $0.4 million in restructuring expense during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. As of December 31, 2020, all of the restructuring costs had been paid.
While certain restrictions have begun to initially lessen in certain jurisdictions during fiscal 2021, stay-at-home, face mask or lockdown orders remain in effect in others, with employees asked to work remotely if possible. Certain areas of the country have seen spikes of COVID-19 cases (including in Manitowoc, Wisconsin and Jacksonville, Florida), which could result in renewed restrictions and lockdown orders. Some customers and projects are in areas where travel restrictions have been imposed, certain customers have either closed or reduced on-site activities, and timelines for the completion of multiple projects have been extended. At this time, it is not possible to predict the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on Orion’s business, liquidity, capital resources or financial results. However, the economic and regulatory impacts of COVID-19 will materially and adversely impact revenue and profitability in fiscal 2021. If there is prolonged adverse impact, Orion’s business, liquidity, capital resources, financial results, and the carrying values of Orion’s property, plant and equipment and intangible assets may be impacted negatively. Orion will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter business operations.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law and includes certain income tax provisions relevant to businesses. Orion is required to recognize the effect on the consolidated financial statements in the period the law was enacted, which was the period ended March 31, 2020. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, and three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, the CARES Act did not have a material impact on Orion’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 14 – Income Taxes.

NOTE 3 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Orion Energy Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Orion have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 or other interim periods.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Orion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on June 5, 2020.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during that reporting period. Areas that require the use of significant management estimates include revenue recognition, inventory obsolescence and allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for warranty and loss contingencies, income taxes, impairment analyses, and certain equity transactions. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties
Orion's cash is deposited with two financial institutions. At times, deposits in these institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Orion has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes that it is not exposed to any significant financial institution viability risk on these balances.
Orion purchases components necessary for its lighting products, including power supplies, lamps and LED components, from numerous suppliers. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, no suppliers accounted for more than 10% of total cost of revenue. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, one supplier accounted for 24.0% and 12.5%, respectively, of total cost of revenue.
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, two customers accounted for 65.1% and 11.1% of total revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2020, one customer accounted for 55.7% of total revenue. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, one customer accounted for 72.3 % and 77.3%, respectively, of total revenue.
As of December 31, 2020, two customers accounted for 59.3% and 18.0% of accounts receivable, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, two customers accounted for 37.3% and 13.0% of accounts receivable, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Issued: Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires an entity to assess impairment of its financial instruments based on its estimate of expected credit losses. Since the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB released several amendments to improve and clarify the implementation guidance. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments are effective for Orion for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2022. Entities are required to apply these changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Orion is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and the related footnote disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general rules of Topic 740. The provisions of ASU 2019-12 are effective for Orion for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Orion is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on this standard on its consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and the related footnote disclosures.
General Information
Orion generates revenues primarily by selling commercial LED lighting fixtures and components, including controls and integrated IoT capabilities, and by installing these fixtures in its customer’s facilities on a turnkey basis via a dedicated installation and support team. Orion recognizes revenue in accordance with the guidance in ASC 606 when control of the goods or services being provided (which Orion refers to as a performance obligation) is transferred to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration that management expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. If there are multiple performance obligations in a contract, the contract’s total sales price is allocated to each individual performance obligation based on their relative standalone selling price.
Revenue derived from customer contracts which include only performance obligation(s) for the sale of lighting fixtures and components is classified as Product revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Revenue from a customer contract which includes both the sale of fixtures and the installation of such fixtures (which Orion refers to as a turnkey project) is allocated between each lighting fixture and the installation performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Revenue from turnkey projects that is allocated to the single installation performance obligation is reflected in Service revenue.
Orion also records revenue in conjunction with several limited power purchase agreements (“PPAs”) still outstanding. These PPAs are supply-side agreements for the generation of electricity. Orion’s last PPA expires in 2031. Revenue associated with the sale of energy generated by the solar facilities under these PPAs is within the scope of ASC 606. Orion also recognizes revenue upon the sale to third parties of tax credits received from operating the solar facilities and from amortizing a grant received from the federal government during the period starting when the power generating facilities were constructed until the expiration of the PPAs; these revenues are not derived from contracts with customers and therefore not under the scope of ASC 606.
When shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer obtains control of the product, Orion has elected to treat shipping and handling costs as an activity necessary to fulfill the performance obligation to transfer product to the customer and not as a separate performance obligation. Any shipping and handling costs charged to customers are recorded in Product revenue. Shipping and handling costs are accrued and included in Cost of product revenue.
See Note 11 – Accrued Expenses and Other for a discussion of Orion’s accounting for the warranty it provides to customers for its products and services.
10
Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis.
Contract Fulfillment Costs
Costs associated with product sales are accumulated in inventory as the fixtures are manufactured and are transferred to Cost of product revenue at the time revenue is recorded. See Note 6 – Inventories, Net. Costs associated with installation sales are expensed as incurred.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Orion’s Product revenue includes revenue from contracts with customers accounted for under the scope of ASC 606 and revenue which is accounted for under other guidance. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, Product revenue included $0.7 million and $ 2.1 million, respectively, derived from sales-type leases for light fixtures, no revenue and $ 0.1 million, respectively, derived from the sale of tax credits generated from Orion’s legacy operation for distributing solar energy, and $19 thousand and $0.1 million, respectively, derived from the amortization of federal grants received in 2010 and 2011 as reimbursement for a portion of the costs to construct the legacy solar facilities which are not under the scope of ASC 606.
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, Product revenue included $0.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively, derived from sales-type leases for light fixtures, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, derived from the sale of tax credits generated from Orion’s legacy operation for distributing solar energy, and $19 thousand and $0.1 million, respectively, derived from the amortization of federal grants received in 2010 and 2011 as reimbursement for a portion of the costs to construct the legacy solar facilities which are not under the scope of ASC 606. All remaining Product revenue, and all Service revenue, are derived from contracts with customers as defined in ASC 606.
The primary end-users of Orion’s lighting products and services are (a) commercial or industrial companies and (b) the federal government.
Commercial or industrial end-users obtain Orion products and services through turnkey project sales or by purchasing products either direct from Orion or through distributors or energy service companies ("ESCOs"). Revenues associated with commercial and industrial end-users are included within each of Orion’s segments, dependent on the sales channel.
The federal government obtains Orion products and services primarily through turnkey project sales that Orion makes to a select group of contractors who focus on the federal government. Revenues associated with government end-users are primarily included in the Orion Engineered Systems Division segment.
11
See N ote 1 8 – Segments, for additional discussion concerning Orion’s reportable segments.

Cash Flow Considerations
Customer payments for material-only orders are due shortly after shipment.
Turnkey projects where the end-user is a commercial or industrial company typically span between one week to three months. Customer payment requirements for these projects vary by contract. Some contracts provide for customer payments for products and services as they are delivered, other contracts specify that the customer will pay for the project in its entirety upon completion of the installation.
Turnkey projects where the end-user is the federal government typically span a three to six-month period. The contracts for these sales often provide for monthly progress payments equal to ninety percent (90%) of the value provided by Orion during the month.
Orion provides long-term financing to one customer who frequently engages Orion in large turnkey projects that span between three and nine months. The customer executes an agreement providing for monthly payments of the contract price, plus interest, typically over a five-year period. The total transaction price in these contracts is allocated between product and services in the same manner as all other turnkey projects. The portion of the transaction associated with the installation is accounted for consistently with all other installation related performance obligations. The portion of the transaction associated with the sale of the multiple individual light fixtures is accounted for as sales-type leases in accordance with the guidance for leases. Revenues associated with the sales-type leases are included in Product revenue and recorded for each fixture separately based on the customer’s monthly acknowledgment that specified fixtures have been installed and are operating as specified.
The payments associated with these transactions that are due during the twelve months subsequent to December 31, 2020 are included in Accounts receivable, net in Orion’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining amounts due that are associated with these transactions are included in Other long-term assets in Orion’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
12
The customer’s monthly payment obligation commences after completion of the turnkey project. Orion generally sells the receivable from the customer to an independent financial institution either during, or shortly after completion of, the installation period. Upon execution of the receivables purchase / sales agreement, all amounts due from the customer are included in Revenues earned but not billed on Orion’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets until cash is received from the financial institution. The financial institution releases funds to Orion based on the customer’s monthly acknowledgment of the progress Orion has achieved in fulfilling its installation obligation. Orion provides the progress certifications to the financial institution one month in arrears.
The total amount received from the sales of these receivables during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, was $0 and $2.3 million, respectively. Orion’s losses on these sales were $0 and $9 thousand, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and are included in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The total amount received from the sales of these receivables during the three months ended three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 was $0.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Orion’s losses on these sales were $39 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, respectively and are included in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Contract Balances
A receivable is recognized when Orion has an enforceable right to payment in accordance with contract terms and an invoice has been issued to the customer. Payment terms on invoiced amounts are typically 30 days from the invoice date.
Revenue earned but not billed represents revenue that has been recognized in advance of billing the customer, which is a common practice in Orion turnkey contracts. Once Orion has an unconditional right to consideration under a turnkey contract, Orion typically bills the customer accordingly and reclassifies the amount to Accounts receivable, net. Revenue earned but not billed as of December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2020, includes $0.3 million and $39 thousand, respectively, which was not derived from contracts with customers and therefore not classified as a contract asset as defined by ASC 606.
Deferred revenue, current as of December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2020, includes $0.1 million and $31 thousand, respectively, of contract liabilities which represent consideration received from customers prior to the point that Orion has fulfilled the promises included in a performance obligation and recorded revenue.
Deferred revenue, long-term consists of the unamortized portion of the funds received from the federal government in 2010 and 2011 as reimbursement for the costs to build the two facilities related to the PPAs. As the transaction is not considered a contract with a customer, this value is not a contract liability as defined by ASC 606.
The following chart shows the balance of Orion’s receivables arising from contracts with customers, contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 9 — LEASES
From time to time, Orion leases assets from third parties. Orion also leases certain assets to third parties.
Orion accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. Under ASC 842, both finance and operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with initial terms in excess of 12 months are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Orion recognizes lease expense for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, referred to as short term leases, on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Assets Orion Leases from Other Parties
On January 31, 2020, Orion entered into the current lease for its approximately 266,000 square foot primary manufacturing and distribution facility in Manitowoc, WI. The lease has a 10-year term, with the option to terminate after six years. Orion is responsible for the costs of insurance and utilities for the facility. These costs are considered variable lease costs. The agreement is classified as an operating lease.
The prior lease agreement for this facility provided the lessor the right to terminate the lease agreement at any time with 12 months’ notice to Orion. As a result, the agreement was previously classified as a short-term lease.
In February 2014, Orion entered into a multi-year lease agreement for use of approximately 10,500 square feet of office space in a multi-use office building in Jacksonville Florida. The lease has since been extended, most recently during the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and presently terminates on June 30, 2023. The agreement is classified as an operating lease.
Orion has leased other assets from third parties, principally office and production equipment. The terms of our other leases vary from contract to contract .
A summary of Orion’s assets leased from third parties follows (dollars in thousands):

Assets Orion Leases to Other Parties
One of Orion’s frequent customers purchases products and installation services under agreements that provide for monthly payments, at a fixed monthly amount, of the contract price, plus interest, typically over a five-year period. While Orion retains ownership of the light fixtures during the financing period, the transaction terms and the underlying economics associated with used lighting fixtures results in Orion essentially ceding ownership of the lighting fixtures to the customer after completion of the agreement. The portions of the transaction associated with the sale of the light fixtures is accounted for as a sales-type lease under ASC 842. The total transaction price in these contracts is allocated between the lease and non-lease components in the same manner as the total transaction price of other turnkey projects containing lighting fixtures and installation services.
Revenues, and production and acquisition costs, associated with sales-type leases are included in Product revenue and Costs of product revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The following chart shows the amount of revenue and cost of sales arising from sales-type leases during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

Other Agreements where Orion is the Lessor
Orion has leased unused portions of its corporate headquarters to third parties. The length and payment terms of the leases vary from contract to contract and, in some cases, include options for the tenants to extend the lease terms. Annual lease payments are recorded as a reduction in administrative operating expenses and were not material in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. Orion accounts for these transactions as operating leases.

Orion uses the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of outstanding dilutive equity incentive instruments, which requires Orion to compute total proceeds as the sum of the amount the employee must pay upon exercise of the award and the amount of unearned stock-based compensation costs attributable to future services. Equity incentive instruments for which the total employee proceeds from exercise exceed the average fair value of the same equity incentive instrument over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per common share during periods with net income, and accordingly, Orion excludes them from the calculation. There were no anti-dilutive equity instruments excluded from the computation of diluted net income per common share for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2020 respectively. Anti-dilutive equity instruments of approximately 203,734 and 220,534 common shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per common share for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2019 respectively.

Revolving Credit Agreement
On December 29, 2020, Orion entered into a new Loan and Security Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as lender (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaced Orion’s prior $20.15 million secured revolving credit and security agreement dated as of October 26, 2018, as amended, by and among Orion and Western Alliance Bank, National Association, as lender (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). The replacement of the Prior Credit Agreement with the Credit Agreement provides Orion with increased financing capacity and liquidity to fund its operations and implement its strategic plans.
The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that matures on December 29, 2025. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base requirement based on eligible receivables, inventory and cash. As of December 31, 2020, the borrowing base supports the full availability of the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2020, no amounts were borrowed under the Credit Facility.
The Credit Agreement is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of Orion’s assets.
18
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are permitted in the form of LIBOR or prime rate-based loans and generally bear interest at floating rates plus an applicable margin determined by reference to Orion’s availability under the Credit Agreement. Among other fees, Orion is required to pay an annual facility fee of $ 15,000 and a fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the Credit Facility.
The Credit Agreement includes a springing minimum fixed cost coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 when excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of $3.0 million or 15% of the committed facility. Currently, the required springing minimum fixed cost coverage ratio is not required.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default and other covenants, including certain restrictions on Orion’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, consolidate or merge, enter into acquisitions, pay any dividend or distribution on Orion’s stock, redeem, retire or purchase shares of Orion’s stock, make investments or pledge or transfer assets. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then Bank of America, N.A. may cease making advances under the Credit Agreement and declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable. In addition, if Orion becomes the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable.
Orion did not incur any early termination fees in connection with the termination of the Prior Credit Agreement, but did recognize a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million on the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs related to the Prior Credit Agreement. Also, due to the timing of the banking transition, Orion had $0.3 million of cash which was restricted for covering obligations on Orion’s outstanding credit card balances. The Prior Credit Agreement was scheduled to mature on October 26, 2021.
Equipment Debt Obligations
In June 2015, Orion entered into an agreement with a financing company in the principal amount of $0.4 million to fund the purchase of certain equipment. The debt was secured by the related equipment. The debt incurred interest at a rate of 5.94% per annum and matured in June 2020.
In February 2019, Orion entered into additional debt agreements with a financing company in the principal amount of $44 thousand and $30 thousand to fund the purchase of certain equipment. The debts are secured by the related equipment. The debts bear interest at a rate of 6.43% and 8.77% per annum, respectively, and both debts mature in January 2024.
Orion’s income tax provision was determined by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate based upon the facts and circumstances known to book income (loss) before income tax, adjusting for discrete items. Orion’s actual effective tax rate is adjusted each interim period, as appropriate, for changes in facts and circumstances. For the three month period ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, Orion recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million and $39 thousand, respectively, using this methodology. For the nine month period ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, Orion recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million, respectively, using this methodology.
As of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, Orion had a full valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets. Orion considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. Orion intends to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances. However, given current earnings and potential future earnings, Orion believes that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow Orion to reach a conclusion that all or some portion of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of future positive evidence.
19
The CARES Act includes significant business tax provisions that, among other things, temporarily eliminate the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses ( NOLs ) , allow businesses to carry back tax year 2018-2020 NOLs to the five prior tax years, accelerate refunds of corporate alternative minimum tax credits, and generally decrease the amount of disallowed business interest expense. Because of Orion’s loss carryforwards, Orion does not anticipate the income tax provisions of the CARES Act to result in a material cash or financial statement impact during fiscal 2021 .
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of December 31, 2020, Orion’s balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $0.3 million, $0.2 million of which would reduce Orion’s effective tax rate if recognized.
Orion has classified the amounts recorded for uncertain tax benefits in the balance sheet as Other long-term liabilities to the extent that payment is not anticipated within one year. Orion recognizes penalties and interest related to uncertain tax liabilities in Income tax expense. Penalties and interest are included in the unrecognized tax benefits.
NOTE 15 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
Orion is subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Orion does not believe the final resolution of any of such claims or legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on Orion’s future results of operations or financial condition.
State Tax Assessment
During fiscal 2018, Orion was notified of a pending sales and use tax audit by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue for the period covering April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2017. Although the final resolution of Orion's sales and use tax audit is uncertain, the ultimate disposition of this matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on Orion's future results of operations or financial conditions.
NOTE 16 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Shareholder Rights Plan
On January 3, 2019, Orion entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Rights Agreement, which amended the Rights Agreement dated as of January 7, 2009 and extended its terms by three years to January 7, 2022. Under the amendment, each common share purchase right (a “Right”), if exercisable, will initially represent the right to purchase from Orion, one share of Orion’s common stock, no par value per share, for a purchase price of $7.00 per share.
The Rights will not be exercisable (and will be transferable only with Orion’s common stock) until a “Distribution Date” occurs (or the Rights are earlier redeemed or expire). A Distribution Date generally will occur on the earlier of a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (“Acquiring Person”) has acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of Orion’s outstanding common stock (“Shares Acquisition Date”) or 10 business days after the commencement of, or the announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in any such person or group of persons acquiring such beneficial ownership.
If a person becomes an Acquiring Person, holders of Rights (except as otherwise provided in the Rights Agreement) will have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of Orion’s common stock having a market value of two times the then-current purchase price, and all Rights beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person, or by certain related parties or transferees, will be null and void. If, after a Shares Acquisition Date, Orion is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction or 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power are sold, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a Right (except as otherwise provided in the Rights Agreement) will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of the acquiring company’s common stock which at the time of such transaction will have a market value of two times the then-current purchase price.
20
Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a shareholder of Orion. At any time prior to a person becoming an Acquiring Person, the Board of Directors of Orion may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $ 0.001 per Right. Unless they are extended or earlier redeemed or exchanged, the Rights will expire on January 7, 2022.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In August 2010, Orion’s Board of Directors approved a non-compensatory employee stock purchase plan, or “ESPP”. In the three months ended December 31, 2020, Orion issued 178 shares under the ESPP plan at a closing market price of $9.87.

NOTE 17 — STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED SHARES
At Orion’s 2019 annual meeting of shareholders held on August 7, 2019, Orion’s shareholders approved the Orion Energy Systems, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Amended 2016 Plan”). The Amended 2016 Plan increased the number of shares of Orion’s common stock available for issuance under the Amended 2016 Plan from 1,750,000 shares to 3,500,000 shares (an increase of 1,750,000 shares); added a minimum vesting period for all awards granted under the Amended 2016 Plan (with limited exceptions); and added a specific prohibition on the payment of dividends and dividend equivalents on unvested awards.
The Amended 2016 Plan authorizes grants of equity-based and incentive cash awards to eligible participants designated by the Plan's administrator. Awards under the Amended 2016 Plan may consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units, incentive awards or dividend equivalent units.
Prior to the 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, Orion maintained its 2004 Stock and Incentive Awards Plan, as amended, which authorized the grant of cash and equity awards to employees (the “2004 Plan”). No new awards are being granted under the 2004 Plan; however, all awards granted under the 2004 Plan that are outstanding will continue to be governed by the 2004 Plan. Forfeited awards originally issued under the 2004 Plan are canceled and are not available for subsequent issuance under the 2004 Plan or under the Amended 2016 Plan. The Amended 2016 Plan and the 2004 Plan also permit accelerated vesting in the event of certain changes of control of Orion as well as under other special circumstances.
Certain non-employee directors have from time to time elected to receive stock awards in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to elections made under Orion’s non-employee director compensation program.
The following amounts of stock-based compensation were recorded (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 19 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events are events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date.
23
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in this Form 10-Q, as well as our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, prospects, financial condition, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and are “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined under the federal securities laws. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “should”, “intend”, “plan”, “will”, “expects”, “estimates”, “projects”, “positioned”, “strategy”, “outlook” and similar words. You should read the statements that contain these types of words carefully. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from what is expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. There may be events in the future that we are not able to predict accurately or over which we have no control. Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. We urge you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or uncertainties after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
We provide state-of-the-art light emitting diode ("LED") lighting, wireless Internet of Things (“IoT”) enabled control solutions, and energy project management. We research, design, develop, manufacture, market, sell, install, and implement energy management systems consisting primarily of high-performance, energy-efficient commercial and industrial interior and exterior lighting systems and related services. Our products are targeted for applications in three primary market segments: commercial office and retail, area lighting, and industrial applications, although we do sell and install products into other markets. Virtually all of our sales occur within North America.
Our lighting products consist primarily of LED lighting fixtures, many of which include IoT enabled control systems. Our principal customers include large national account end-users, federal and state government facilities, large regional account end-users, electrical distributors, electrical contractors and energy service companies ("ESCOs"). Currently, most of our products are manufactured at our leased production facility located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, although as the LED and related IoT market continues to evolve, we are increasingly sourcing products and components from third parties in order to provide versatility in our product development.
We have experienced recent success offering our comprehensive project management services to national account customers to retrofit their multiple locations. Our comprehensive services include initial site surveys and audits, utility incentive and government subsidy management, engineering design, and project management from delivery through to installation and controls integration.
We typically sell our lighting systems in replacement of our customers’ existing fixtures. We call this replacement process a "retrofit". We frequently engage our customer’s existing electrical contractor to provide installation and project management services. We also sell our lighting systems on a wholesale basis, principally to electrical distributors and ESCOs to sell to their own customer bases.
The gross profits of our products can vary significantly depending upon the types of products we sell, with margins typically ranging from 10% to 50%. As a result, a change in the total mix of our sales among higher or lower margin products can cause our profitability to fluctuate from period to period.
24
Our fiscal year ends on March 31. We refer to our just completed fiscal year, which ended on March 31, 2020, as "fiscal 2020", and our prior fiscal year which ended on March 31, 2019 as "fiscal 2019". Our fiscal first quarter of each fiscal year ends on June 30, our fiscal second quarter ends on September 30, our fiscal third quarter ends on December 31 and our fiscal fourth quarter ends on March 31.
Reportable segments are components of an entity that have separate financial data that the entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") regularly reviews when allocating resources and assessing performance. Our CODM is our chief executive officer. Orion has three reportable segments: Orion Engineered Systems Division ("OES"), and Orion Distribution Services Division ("ODS"), and Orion U.S. Markets Division (“USM”).
Impact of COVID-19 and Fiscal 2021 Outlook
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted business, trade, commerce, financial and credit markets, in the U.S. and globally. Our business has been adversely impacted by measures taken by government entities and others to control the spread of the virus beginning in March 2020, the last few weeks of our prior fiscal year, and continuing most significantly into the second quarter of fiscal 2021. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we experienced a rebound in business, with a full quarter of project installations for our largest customer, as well installations for a new large specialty retail customer, and no significant COVID-19 impacts. However, some customers continue to refrain from awarding new projects and potential future risks remain due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a deemed essential business, we provide products and services to ensure energy and lighting infrastructure and we therefore have continued to operate throughout the pandemic. We have implemented a number of safety protocols, including limiting travel and restricting access to our facilities along with monitoring processes, physical distancing, physical barriers, enhanced cleaning procedures and requiring face coverings.
As part of our response to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 we implemented a number of cost reduction and cash conservation measures, including reducing headcount. While certain restrictions have begun to initially lessen in certain jurisdictions during fiscal 2021, stay-at-home, face mask or lockdown orders remain in effect in others, with employees asked to work remotely if possible. Certain areas of the country have seen spikes of COVID-19 cases (including in and around our headquarters in Manitowoc, Wisconsin and our office in Jacksonville, Florida), which could result in renewed restrictions and lockdown orders. Some customers and projects are in areas where travel restrictions have been imposed, certain customers have either closed or reduced on-site activities, and timelines for the completion of several projects have been delayed, extended or terminated. These modifications to our business practices, including any future actions we take, may cause us to experience reductions in productivity and disruptions to our business routines. In addition, we are required to make substantial working capital expenditures and advance inventory purchases that we may not be able to recoup if the agreements or a substantial volume of purchase orders under the agreements are delayed or terminated as a result of COVID-19. At this time, it is not possible to predict the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, liquidity, capital resources or financial results, although the economic and regulatory impacts of COVID-19 significantly reduced our revenue and profitability in the first half of fiscal 2021. If the COVID-19 pandemic becomes more pronounced in our markets or experiences a resurgence in markets recovering from the spread of COVID-19, or if another significant natural disaster or pandemic were to occur in the future, our operations in areas impacted by such events could experience further adverse financial impacts due to market changes and other resulting events and circumstances.
In addition to managing the adverse financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to achieve our desired revenue growth and profitability goals depends on our ability to effectively execute on the following key strategic initiatives:
|
|
• |
Executing and marketing our turnkey LED retrofit capabilities to large national account customers. |
|
|
• |
Continue our product innovation. |
|
|
• |
Leverage our smart lighting systems to support internet of things applications. |
|
|
• |
Develop our maintenance service offerings. |
25
|
|
|
|
|
• |
Support the success of our ESCO and distribution sales channels. |
We also may identify and pursue strategic acquisition candidates that would help support these initiatives.
Managing Impacts of Tariffs and Trade Policies
The United States government has been implementing various monetary, regulatory, and trade importation restraints, penalties, and tariffs. Certain sourced finished products and certain of the components used in our products have been impacted by tariffs imposed on China imports. Our efforts to mitigate the impact of added costs resulting from these government actions include a variety of activities, such as sourcing from non-tariff impacted countries and raising prices. If we are unable to successfully mitigate the impacts of these tariffs and other trade policies, our results of operations may be adversely affected. We believe that these mitigation activities will assist to offset added costs, and we currently believe that such tariffs will have a limited adverse financial effect on our results of operations. Any future policy changes that may be implemented could have a positive or negative consequence on our financial performance depending on how the changes would influence many factors, including business and consumer sentiment.
Major Developments in Fiscal 2021
During fiscal 2021, we executed multiple contract extensions for a major national account customer with our state-of-the-art LED lighting systems and wireless IoT enabled control solutions at locations nationwide. This single national account customer represented 74.1% of our total revenue in fiscal 2020 and was the primary driver for our growth over the prior year period. During March 2020, this customer suspended our installations at a significant number of locations that were scheduled for installation during our fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and our fiscal 2021 first quarter. These installations resumed during the second quarter of fiscal 2021 and continued through the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
We also completed several initial retrofit projects at facilities for a major global logistics company. This customer is expected to be a significant source of revenue as we move forward, although these installations are likely to occur more slowly than we had originally anticipated. We expect to work with the customer on a project-by-project basis, versus larger-scale multi-site commitments, which limits visibility on the timing of future revenue contributions. We also have been selected to work with another major logistics company that is also expected to be a significant source of revenue in the future.
Additionally, we added a large specialty retail customer and are providing turnkey LED lighting retrofit solutions for a number of its stores. This project is expected to generate product and service revenue of at least $8 million during the second half fiscal 2021. We expect to retrofit additional stores for this customer in fiscal 2022.
As of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, Orion had a full valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets. We will continue to evaluate the valuation allowance by considering changing facts and circumstances and may adjust our valuation allowance accordingly. Given our current earnings and potential future earnings, it is reasonably possible we will reverse a portion of our existing valuation allowance in the future.

Revenue. Product revenue increased 23.4%, or $6.1 million, for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 versus the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Service revenue increased 47.0%, or $3.9 million, for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 versus the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in product and service revenue was primarily due to an increase of installations from our existing large national retail customer and a new large specialty retail customer. Sales to these two customers accounted for 65.1% and 11.1% of total revenue, respectively, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit. Cost of product revenue increased 21.6%, or $4.1 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 versus the third quarter of fiscal 2020 due to the increase in our sales. Cost of service revenue increased 45.5%, or $3.1 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 versus the third quarter of fiscal 2020 due to the significant increase in sales. Gross profit percentage increased from 24.2% of revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 to 24.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, due primarily to an improvement in product margin on customer sales mix, partially offset by increased service revenues which have lower margins.
Operating Expenses
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 13.8%, or $0.4 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. This comparative increase was primarily due to the timing of accruals for bonus expense and an increase in professional services costs.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased 14.1%, or $0.4 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. This comparative increase was primarily due to an increase in commission expense on higher sales, as well as start-up costs for our new business line, Orion Maintenance Services.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses decreased 10.9%, or $48 thousand, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. This comparative decrease was primarily due to the timing of research and development costs.
27
Interest Expense. Interest expense in the third quarter of fiscal 20 2 1 decreased by 97.4 %, or $ 37 thousand , from the third quarter of fiscal 20 20 . The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to comparatively lower sales of receivables than in the prior year period .
Loss on Debt Extinguishment . Loss on debt extinguishment in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 related to the write-off of fees incurred with respect to our prior credit facility, which was recognized upon execution of our new credit facility during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Revenue. Product revenue decreased 34.0%, or $31.9 million, for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 versus the first nine months of fiscal 2020. Service revenue decreased 37.6%, or $11.7 million, for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 versus the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The decrease in product and service revenue was primarily due to multiple projects put on hold during the first half of fiscal 2021 as a result of COVID-19, including the projects for one large national account customer which represented 77.3% of revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2020, and 55.7% of revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The project installations for this large national account customer resumed during the second quarter of fiscal 2021.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit. Cost of product revenue decreased 55.1%, or $23.9 million, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 versus the first nine months of fiscal 2020 due to the significant decrease in our sales. Cost of service revenue decreased 37.1%, or $9.2 million, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 versus the first nine months of fiscal 2020 due to the decrease in sales. Gross profit percentage increased from 25.1% of revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 to 25.7% in fiscal 2021, due primarily to cost management and a change in customer sales mix.

Operating Expenses
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased 2.4%, or $0.2 million, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020, primarily due to lower employment and travel costs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 12.6%, or $1.1 million, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020. This comparative decrease was primarily due to a decrease in commission expense on lower sales and lower travel costs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by start-up costs for our new business line, Orion Maintenance Services.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 remained relatively flat compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020.
Interest Expense. Interest expense in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 decreased by 80.5%, or $0.2 million, from the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower borrowing on our revolving credit facility and lower sales of receivables in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020.
Loss on debt extinguishment. Loss on debt extinguishment in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 related to the write-off of fees incurred with respect to our prior credit facility, upon execution of our new credit facility.

OES segment revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 decreased $47.0 million from the first nine months of fiscal 2020 due to multiple projects put on hold as a result of COVID-19, including the projects for one large national account customer that represented 77.3% of total revenue in the first nine months fiscal 2020, and 55.7% of revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The project installations for this customer resumed during the second quarter of fiscal 2021. This sales decrease led to a corresponding decrease in operating income in this segment.

ODS segment revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 increased 43.5%, or $4.9 million, compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020, primarily due to sales to one customer who represented 6.8% of first nine months fiscal 2021 total revenue. This sales increase led to a corresponding increase in operating income in this segment based on operating leverage.

USM segment revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 decreased 16.0%, or $1.5 million, from the first nine months of fiscal 2020, primarily due to the impact of COVID-19, and resulted in a corresponding decrease in operating income in this segment based on operating leverage.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We had approximately $12.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020, compared to $28.8 million at March 31, 2020. Our cash position decreased primarily as a result of net payments of $10.1 million to reduce the principal balance of our prior credit agreement and the use of cash from operating activities of $5.6 million.
Our future liquidity needs and forecasted cash flows are dependent upon many factors, including our relative revenue, gross profits, cash management practices, cost reduction initiatives, working capital management, capital expenditures, pending or future litigation results and cost containment measures. In addition, we tend to experience higher working capital costs when we increase sales from existing levels.

Cash Flows Related to Operating Activities. Cash (used in) provided by operating activities primarily consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of debt issue costs, provisions for reserves, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
Cash used in operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 was $5.6 million and consisted of our net income adjusted for non-cash expense items of $6.2 million and net cash used in changes in operating assets and liabilities of $11.8 million. Cash used by operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of an increase in accounts receivable of $13.2 million due to higher sales and the timing of collections, and an increase in inventory of $4.2 million on anticipated fourth quarter sales. Cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of an increase in accrued expenses and other of $6.6 million due to timing of billing for completed projects.
Cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was $14.3 million and consisted of our net income adjusted for non-cash expense items of $15.1 million and net cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.8 million. Cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of a decrease of $2.9 million in accounts payable, and a decrease in accrued expenses and other of $1.3 million due to the timing of payments. Cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of a decrease of $2.9 million in revenue earned but not billed and a decrease in inventories of $1.0 million.

Cash used in investing activities of $0.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 consisted of purchases of tooling and equipment.
Cash Flows Related to Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities of $10.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 consisted primarily of net repayments of $10.0 million on our Prior Credit Agreement.
Cash used in financing activities was $8.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2020. This use of cash consisted primarily of net repayments of $8.4 million on our Credit Facility.
Working Capital
Our net working capital as of December 31, 2020 was 23.3 million, consisting of $56.7 million in current assets and $33.4 million in current liabilities. Our net working capital as of March 31, 2020 was $27.8 million, consisting of $55.0 million in current assets and $27.2 in current liabilities. Our current accounts receivable, net balance increased by $13.3 million from the fiscal 2020 year-end primarily due to higher sales and the timing of customer collections. Our inventories, net increased from the fiscal 2020 year-end by $4.0 million due primarily to anticipated project installations for a large national account customer and new large specialty retail customer. Our accrued expenses increased from our fiscal 2020 year-end by $6.7 million due primarily to an increase in accrued project costs.
We generally attempt to maintain at least a three-month supply of on-hand inventory of purchased components and raw materials to meet anticipated demand, as well as to reduce our risk of unexpected raw material or component shortages or supply interruptions. Our accounts receivable, inventory and payables may increase to the extent our revenue and order levels increase.
Indebtedness
Revolving Credit Agreement
On December 29, 2020, we entered into a new Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as lender (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement replaced our existing $20.15 million secured revolving credit and security agreement dated as of October 26, 2018, as amended, with Western Alliance Bank, National Association, as lender (the “Prior Credit Agreement”).
The replacement of the Prior Credit Agreement with the Credit Agreement provides us with increased financing capacity and liquidity to fund our operations and implement our strategic plans.
The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that matures on December 29, 2025. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base requirement based on eligible receivables, inventory and cash. As of December 31, 2020, the borrowing base supports the full availability of the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2020, no amounts were borrowed under the Credit Facility.
The Credit Agreement is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of our assets.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are permitted in the form of LIBOR or prime rate-based loans and generally bear interest at floating rates plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our availability under the Credit Agreement. Among other fees, we are required to pay an annual facility fee of $15,000 and fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the Credit Facility.
The Credit Agreement includes a springing minimum fixed cost coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 when excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of $3.0 million or 15% of the committed facility. Currently, the required springing minimum fixed cost coverage ratio is not required.
32
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default and other covenants, including certain restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, consolidate or merge, enter into acquisitions, pay any dividend or distribution on our stock, redeem, retire or purchase shares of our stock, make investments or pledge or transfer assets. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then the Lender may cease making advances under the Credit Agreement and declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable. In addition, if we become the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable.
We did not incur any early termination fees in connection with the termination of the Prior Credit Agreement, but did recognize a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million on the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs related to the Prior Credit Agreement. Also, due to the timing of the banking transition, we had $0.3 million of cash which was restricted for covering obligations on our outstanding credit card balances. The Prior Credit Agreement was scheduled to mature on October 26, 2021.
Our capital expenditures are primarily for general corporate purposes for our corporate headquarters and technology center, production equipment and tooling and for information technology systems. Our capital expenditures totaled $0.7 million and $0.6 million for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 impact on our business, we do not have a committed capital expenditure plan for fiscal 2021; however, we expect to finance current year capital expenditures primarily through our existing cash, equipment-secured loans and leases, to the extent needed, long-term debt financing, or by using our available capacity under our Credit Agreement.
Backlog
Backlog represents the amount of revenue that we expect to realize in the future as a result of firm, committed purchase orders. Backlog totaled $21.8 million and $19.2 million as of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively. We generally expect our backlog to be recognized as revenue within one year, although the COVID-19 pandemic may extend this time period.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Our results from operations have not been, and we do not expect them to be, materially affected by inflation.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and our related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We re-evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation, collectability of receivables, stock-based compensation, warranty reserves and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. A summary of our critical accounting policies is set forth in the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020. For the three months ended December 31, 2020, there were no material changes in our accounting policies.

Our exposure to market risk was discussed in the “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” section contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020. There have been no material changes to such exposures since March 31, 2020.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures 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 accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of December 31, 2020, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, such officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2020.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) for the three months ended December 31, 2020, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
35
We are subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this report, we do not believe that the final resolution of any of such claims or legal proceedings would have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations.
See Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the risks and uncertainties that we believe are most important for you to consider are discussed in Part I - Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, which we filed with the SEC on June 5, 2020 and in Part 1 - Item 2 under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q.
