Webcast to be Held Today, February 10, 2022 at 1:45 PM PT; 4:45 PM ET

VAN NUYS, CA / BUSINESS WIRE / February 10, 2022 / Capstone Green Energy Corporation (www.CapstoneGreenEnergy.com) (NASDAQ:CGRN) ("Capstone," the "Company," “we” or “us”), a global leader in carbon reduction and on-site resilient green energy as a service (EaaS) solutions, today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2022 third quarter ended December 31, 2021.

“Total revenue has been up sequentially every quarter of Fiscal 2022 as we continue to execute on our revenue growth strategy,” said Darren Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone Green Energy. “We continue to be pleased with the progress of our new Direct Solutions Sales team during the quarter they secured a number of new contracts including our first orders for Solar (PV) and battery energy storage systems (BESS). In addition, they continue to build out our Energy as a Service (EaaS) long-term rental pipeline. Growing our long-term rental fleet is the pillar of our EaaS and recurring revenue strategy, and we are set to achieve our goal of having a 21.1 MW fleet by March 31, 2022," concluded Mr. Jamison.

Financial Highlights of Fiscal Year 2022 Third Quarter:

●

Total revenue in the quarter was $20.6 million, compared to $20.7 million in the third quarter last year and total revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 was $53.9 million, up 8%, compared to $49.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2020.

●

The long-term microturbine rental fleet increased 4.6 megawatts (MWs) to 17.7 MWs from 13.1 MWs during the quarter as the Company continues to execute against its plan to increase the fleet to 21.1 MWs by March 31, 2022.

●

Gross Margin as a percentage of sales was 11% in the quarter, down 600 basis points, compared to 17% in the third quarter last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower overhead expenses in the prior period as a result of the Company’s COVID-19 Business Continuity Plan, which consisted of pay cuts, furloughs, and other cost-cutting measures.

●

Total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021, were $31.3 million, a decrease of $7.0 million, compared to $38.3 million as of September 30, 2021, and a decrease of $18.2 million, compared to $49.5 million as of March 31, 2021.

●

Net loss was $5.1 million for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

●

New Gross Product orders were $5.8 million in the third quarter, representing a Book-to-Bill Ratio of 0.5:1. New Gross Product orders were lower than anticipated in December as the new Omicron variant pushed projects into the new year.

●

First orders for Solar PV and battery storage were received during the third quarter, with a sales value of $0.7 million.

●

Adjusted EBITDA was negative $3.0 million for the quarter, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2022 Third Quarter and Year-to-Date

Total revenue for the quarter was $20.6 million, compared to $20.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Total revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2021, was $53.9 million, an increase of $4.1 million from $49.8 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2020. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to a higher volume of both product and parts revenue, as the prior year period was more adversely impacted by the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased to 11% in the third quarter, compared to 17% in the same period last year and gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased to 14% in the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to 19% in the same period last year. Both decreases were primarily due to lower overhead expenses in the prior year period as a result of the Company’s COVID-19 Business Continuity Plan.

Operating expenses for the quarter were $6.1 million, an increase of $0.5 million, from $5.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to additional expense from the growth of the Direct Solutions Sales team, as well as a bad debt recovery in the prior year period. Operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 were $19.7 million, an increase of $4.8 million from $14.9 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to lower expenses in the prior period as a result of the Company’s COVID-19 Business Continuity Plan, as well as a one-time employment related legal settlement of $0.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Net loss was $5.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million in the same period last year. The prior-year period included a $4.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the Company’s term note refinance. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $3.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.3 million for the same period last year.

Net loss was $13.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of $13.6 million in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $8.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of negative $3.1 million for the same period last year.

Cash and cash equivalents were $31.3 million as of December 31, 2021, compared to $49.5 million as of March 31, 2021. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended December 31, 2021, was due to cash used in operating activities of $23.0 million, which was driven

by the Company’s net loss, as well as delays in accounts receivable collections primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the current period, an increase in inventory for the rental fleet and to continue to produce product despite supply chain challenges. This was partially offset by increased revenue and delays in accounts payable payments. Cash used in investing activities of $5.7 million was primarily to continue the expansion of the rental fleet. Cash provided by financing activities of $10.5 million, was primarily from the issuance of Common Stock through the June 2021 Common Stock offering and the Company’s at-the-market offering program.

To supplement the company’s unaudited financial data presented on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, management has presented Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure is among the indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating the company’s financial performance as well as for forecasting future periods. Management establishes performance targets, annual budgets and makes operating decisions based in part upon this metric. Accordingly, disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with the same information that management uses to understand the company’s economic performance year-over-year.

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before gain on debt extinguishment, additional PPP loan forgiveness, stock-based compensation and other expense, and legal settlements. Gain on debt extinguishment and additional PPP loan forgiveness relates to the Paycheck Protection Program loan forgiveness. Stock-based compensation and other expense includes expense related to stock issued to employees, directors, and vendors. Legal settlements represents legal settlements for employment related matters.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of the company’s liquidity or financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

While management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of this measure. This measure is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on the company’s GAAP results and by using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally and by reviewing the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with the company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
