NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Aura Systems, Inc., (“Aura”, the “Company”) a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the development, commercialization, and sale of products, systems, and components, using its patented and proprietary electromagnetic technology. Aura develops and sells AuraGen^® axial flux mobile induction power systems to the industrial, commercial, and defense mobile power generation markets.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The Condensed Balance Sheet information as of February 28, 2023, was derived from the Company’s audited Financial Statements as of February 28, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2023. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report. The results of operations for the period ended November 30, 2023, may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending February 29, 2024.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last calendar day of February. Accordingly, the current fiscal year will end on February 29, 2024 and is referred to as “Fiscal 2024”. Our prior fiscal years ended February 28, 2023, February 28, 2022 and 2021, and are referred to as “Fiscal 2023”, “Fiscal 2022” and “Fiscal 2021”, respectively.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. During the nine-month period ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized net loss of $3,171 and used cash in operating activities of $2,178, respectively. As of November 30, 2023, the Company also has a shareholder deficit of $21,247 and notes payable totaling $5,200 are also past due. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s February 28, 2023, financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

In the event the Company is unable to generate profits and is unable to obtain financing for its working capital requirements, it may have to curtail its business further or cease business altogether. Substantial additional capital resources will be required to fund continuing expenditures related to our research, development, manufacturing and business development activities. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to retain its current financing, to obtain additional financing, and ultimately to attain profitability.

During the next twelve months the Company intends to continue to attempt to increase the Company’s operations and focus on the sale of our AuraGen^®/VIPER products both domestically and internationally and to add to our existing management team. In addition, the Company plans to source new suppliers for manufacturing operations, rebuild the engineering and sales teams, and to the extent appropriate, utilize third party contractors to support the operation. The Company anticipates being able to obtain new sources of funding to support these actions in the upcoming fiscal year.

Inflation

Higher inflation, the actions by the Federal Reserve Bank to address inflation, most notably continuing increases in interest rates, and the volatility of energy prices create uncertainty about the future economic environment. The Company expects that the impact of these issues will continue to evolve. The Company believes these factors impacted the Company’s business in fiscal 2023 and the nine months of fiscal 2024 and will continue to impact the Company’s business in the remaining months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025. The implications of higher government deficits and debt, tighter monetary policy, and higher long-term interest rates may drive a higher cost of capital for the business and an increase in the Company’s operating expenses.

COVID-19

As of the date of this filing, the COVID-19 pandemic has been declared to be officially over. Despite this fact, there continues to be lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the regions in which the Company operates. The Company has not observed any impairments of its assets or a significant change in the fair value of its assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At this time, it is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results stemming from the outbreak and its lingering effects on the Company’s business or results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

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 at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include assumptions made for inventory reserve, impairment testing of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, assumptions used in valuing derivative liabilities, assumptions used in valuing share-based compensation, and accruals for potential liabilities. Amounts could materially change in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Vendor Concentration

As of November 30, 2023 and February 28, 2023, there were four vendors who accounted for over 10% of the Company’s accounts payable.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Our primary source of revenue is the manufacture and delivery of generator sets used primarily in mobile power applications. Our principal sales channel is sales to a domestic distributor. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue, net of discounts, for our generator sets at time of product delivery to the domestic distributor (i.e. point-in-time), which also corresponds to the passage of legal title to the customer and the satisfaction of our performance obligation to the customer.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants, and shares of common stock to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for services.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

●

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

●

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

●

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs.

The recorded amounts of inventory, other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of notes payable and convertible notes payable approximate their respective fair values because of their current interest rates payable in relation to current market conditions.

The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets and liabilities at fair value as of November 30, 2023 and February 28, 2023:

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative warrant liability using the Binomial Model.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the warrant derivative liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable level 3 inputs for the period ended November 30, 2023 as follows:

Reclassifications

Certain February 28, 2023 balances have been reclassified to conform with the November 30, 2023 presentation. In presenting the Company’s balance sheet at February 28, 2023, the Company originally presented accrued interest of $1,389 and accrued payroll and other expenses of $441, totaling $1,830 as a separate line item called Accrued Expenses. In addition, $82 of accrued interest was included in notes payable-related parties, current portion. In presenting the Company’s balance sheet at November 30, 2023, the Company has reclassified the balance of accrued interest of $1,471 as a separate line item, and the balance of accrued payroll and other expenses of $441 as part of accounts payable and accrued expense and reduced notes payable-related parties, current portion by $82.

Loss per share

The Company’s loss per share amounts have been computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock assuming all potential shares had been issued, and the additional shares of common stock were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the as-if-converted method for convertible debt, and the treasury stock method for options and warrants, which could occur if all potentially dilutive securities were exercised.

For the nine-months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potentially dilutive securities would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

	November 30, 2023		November 30, 2022
Warrants		3,624,764		8,132,498
Options		4,250,000		5,059,769
Convertible notes		3,986,274		3,868,414
Total		11,861,038		17,060,681

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04 “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation— Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options” (“ASU 2021-04”). ASU 2021-04 provides guidance as to how an issuer should account for a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option (i.e., a warrant) that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. An issuer should measure the effect of a modification or exchange as the difference between the fair value of the modified or exchanged warrant and the fair value of that warrant immediately before modification or exchange and then apply a recognition model that comprises four categories of transactions and the corresponding accounting treatment for each category (equity issuance, debt origination, debt modification, and modifications unrelated to equity issuance and debt origination or modification). ASU 2021-04 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the guidance provided in ASU 2021-04 prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date. The Company adopted ASU 2021-04 effective March 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on current expected credit losses (“CECL”) to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. This may result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning March 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2021-04 effective March 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements and guidance issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

(a) Kopple Note

In fiscals 2013 through 2018, the Company issued notes payable to Robert Kopple and associated entities (collectively “Kopple”) in the aggregate principal amount of $6,107. Robert Kopple is the former Vice-Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and is a current shareholder in the Company. Between July 2017 and March 2022, the Company was engaged in litigation with Kopple relating to more than $13,000 of principal and accrued interest due under the notes, and the equivalent of the approximately 23 million warrants.

On March 14, 2022, the Company reached an agreement with Kopple and resolved all remaining litigation between them, including all amounts owed to Kopple under the notes. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to issue a new note and pay Kopple an aggregate amount of $10,000, including $3,000 initially due in June 2022, and $1,000 to be paid annually for seven years after the initial $3,000 is paid. Additionally, the settlement agreement granted Koppel a five year, fully vested warrant exercisable into 3,331,664 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.85 per share with a fair value of $1,100.

The Company assessed the settlement with Kopple under ASC 470 and determined that the guidance under troubled debt restructuring should apply. The carrying value of the restructured note remains the same as before the restructuring, reduced only by the fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the transaction. The Company determined that the future undiscounted cash flows of the restructured new Kopple note exceeded the carrying value, and accordingly, no gain was recognized, and no adjustment was made to the carrying value of the debt, other than the adjustment for the fair value of the warrants. Interest expense on the new Kopple note is computed using a new effective rate that equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the new terms with the carrying value of the debt.

In June 2022, the first installment of $3,000 became due, of which $150 was paid and $2,850 is still outstanding. Subsequently, the note was amended several times to extend the payment date of the remaining balance of $2,850 of the initial payment through January 2023, and the Company incurred extension and forbearance fees totaling $335.In January 2023, pursuant to the terms of the amended note payable, the Company started accruing interest on the outstanding note balance at a rate of 6% per annum, compounded annually. As of February 28, 2023, outstanding principal balance amounted to $10,915.

During the nine months ended November 30, 2023, the note was again amended multiple times to extend the payment term of the remaining balance of $2,850 of the initial payment and installment payment of $1,000, originally due in June 2023, through August 1, 2023. As a result of these amendments, the Company incurred additional extension and forbearance fees totaling $390 and adjustment to principal balance of $23.

As of November 30, 2023, the outstanding principal balance of amounted to $10,938. As of November 30, 2023 and the date of this report, the Company and Kopple are currently in negotiations for another extension of the deadline for payment of the $3,850, consisting of the $2,850 initial payment and the installment payment of $1,000. Currently, Kopple has agreed in principle that such further amendment will also indicate that the Company is not in default of the agreement as of November 30, 2023, and through the date that the financial statements are issued. Based upon the foregoing no adjustments have been made to reflect the Kopple debt in default.

The settlement agreement with Kopple provides for certain increases in the amounts payable to Kopple and the right of such parties to enter a judgement against the Company if the Company remains in unsecured default in its payment obligations. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company is also subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants such as periodic submission of financial statements to Koppel and restrictions on future financing and investing activities, as defined in the agreement, including the covenant to not create any indebtedness that is senior in right of payment to the Kopple debt. Management believes such covenants are normal for this type of transaction and that management believes meeting these covenants will not affect operations and the Company.

(b) Note payable-Gagerman

Melvin Gagerman, the Company’s former CEO and CFO whose employment was permanently terminated in July 2019, claims that in April 2014 the Company issued an unsecured demand promissory note to him in the amount of $82 that bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Gagerman claims that this note has not been repaid to date and is now owed.

In June 2022, Gagerman brought suit against the Company for repayment of this alleged note. Despite the fact that, based on Gagerman’s allegations, the note was issued during a period when Gagerman was the Company’s CEO, CFO, Corporate Secretary and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, Gagerman has stated that he does not possess a copy of the alleged promissory note. The Company disputes that any amount is presently owed to Gagerman. Additionally, the Company has filed a cross-complaint against Gagerman for, among things, conversion, violation of California Business & Professions Code §17200, and various breaches of fiduciary duty that the Company believes Gagerman committed against the Company.

Although the Company disputes Gagerman’s claims, under the guidance of ASC 450 – Contingencies, the Company has recorded the claimed note payable $82 and corresponding accrued interest.

On November 20, 2019, the Company reached an agreement with a former joint venture partner Jiangsu Shengfeng regarding the return of $700 that had been advanced to the Company in prior years. As a result, in November 2019, the Company issued a non-interest-bearing promissory note for $700 to be paid over an 11-month period beginning March 15, 2020, through February 15, 2021. As of November 30, 2023 and February 28, 2023, the outstanding balance of this note payable amounted to $700.

The Company is currently in negotiations with the noteholder to settle or extinguish the note payable.

NOTE 7 – LEASES

Our administrative and production operations including warehousing, are housed in an approximately 18,000 square foot facility in Lake Forest, California. The Lake Forest lease is for 66-months effective February 2021 through August 31, 2026. The initial monthly base rental rate was approximately $22 per month and escalates 3% each year to approximately $26 per month in 2026. The lease liability was determined by discounting the future lease payments under the lease terms using a 10% per annum discount rate to arrive at the current lease liability.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the period are as follows:

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE WARRANT LIABILITY

In prior years the Company issued warrants that include a fundamental transaction provision that could give rise to an obligation to pay cash to the warrant holder. The Company determined that the warrants do not satisfy the criteria for classification as equity instruments due to the existence of the cash settlement feature that is not within the sole control of the Company, and the warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. The fair value of the warrants is remeasured at each reporting period, and the change in the fair value is recognized in earnings in the accompanying statements of operations. The warrant liability will ultimately be converted into the Company’s equity when the warrants are exercised or will be extinguished upon the expiration of the outstanding warrants.

The following tables summarize the derivative warrant liability:

NOTE 11 – CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Our management evaluates our exposure to these claims and proceedings individually and in the aggregate and evaluates potential losses on such litigation if the amount of the loss is estimable and the loss is probable. However, the outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company is subject to significant uncertainty. Although management considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial statements for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

In 2017, the Company’s former COO was awarded approximately $238 in accrued salary and related charges by the California labor board. In August 2021, the Company reached a settlement by which the Company agreed to pay approximately $330, representing the principal award plus accrued interest. As of the time of this filing, the Company has paid approximately $318 toward the settlement amount. The remaining balance of approximately $12 is to be paid no later than January 31, 2024, and accrues interest of 10% per annum until paid.

On March 26, 2019, various stockholders of the Company controlling a combined total of more than 27.5 million shares delivered a signed written consent to the Company removing Ronald Buschur as a member of the Company’s Board and electing Cipora Lavut as a director of the Company. On March 27, 2019, those same stockholders delivered a further signed written consent to the Company removing William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu as members of the Company’s Board and electing Robert Lempert and David Mann as directors of the Company. These written consents represented a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2019, respectively. Because of Aura’s refusal to recognize the legal effectiveness of the consents, on April 8, 2019 the stockholders filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware pursuant to Section 225 of the Delaware General Corporations Law, seeking an order confirming the validity of the consents and declaring that Aura’s Board consists of Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann, Dr. Lempert, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Diaz-Versón, Jr. On July 8, 2019 the Court of Chancery entered final judgment in favor of the stockholder plaintiffs, confirming that (a) Ronald Buschur, Si Ryong Yu and William Anderson had been validly removed by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent (b) Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann and Dr. Lempert had been validly elected by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent, and (c) the Company’s Board of Directors validly consists of Cipora Lavut, David Mann, Robert Lempert, Gary Douglas and Salvador Diaz-Versón, Jr. As a result of prior management’s unsuccessful opposition to this stockholders’ action filed in the Court of Chancery, such stockholders may be potentially entitled to recoup their litigation costs from the Company under Delaware’s corporate benefit doctrine and/or other legal provisions. To date, no final determination has been made as to the amount of recoupment, if any, to which such stockholders may be entitled.

In June 2022, Melvin Gagerman, the Company’s former CEO and CFO whose employment with Aura was permanently terminated in July 2019, brought suit against the Company for repayment of an allegedly unsecured demand promissory note in the principal amount of $82 which he claims was entered into in April 2014 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Despite the fact that, based on Gagerman’s allegations, the note was issued during a period when he was the Company’s CEO, CFO, Corporate Secretary and Chairman of Aura’s Board of Directors, Gagerman has stated that he does not possess a copy of the alleged promissory note. The Company disputes that any amount is presently owed to Gagerman and has filed a cross-complaint against him for, among things, conversion, violation of California Business& Professions Code §17200, and various breaches of fiduciary duty that the Company believes Gagerman committed against Aura, including without limitation, Gagerman’s actions in opposing the valid 2019 stockholder consent action.

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Overview

Our business is based on the exploitation of our Axial Flux Induction solution known as the AuraGen^® for commercial and industrial applications and the VIPER for military applications. Our business model consists of two major components: (i) sales and marketing, (ii) design and engineering. Our sales and marketing approaches are composed of direct sales in North America and the use of agents and distributors in other areas. In North America, our primary focus is in (a) mobile exportable power applications, (b) EV applications, (c) U.S. Military applications and (d) industrial applications. The second component of our business model is focused on the design of new products and engineering support for the sales activities described above. The engineering support consists of the introduction of new features for our AuraGen^®/VIPERsolution such as higher power/torque solutions, and different input and output voltages (DC and AC input and output versions).

In Fiscal 2020 stockholders of the Company successfully removed Ronald Buschur, William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu from the Company’s Board of Directors and elected Ms. Cipora Lavut, Mr. David Mann and Dr. Robert Lempert as directors of the Company in their stead. See Item 3, Legal Proceedings for more information. Also, in Fiscal 2020, Melvin Gagerman –– Aura’s CEO and CFO since 2006 –– was replaced. In July 2019 Ms. Lavut succeeded Mr. Gagerman as President and Mr. Mann succeeded Mr. Gagerman as CFO. Dr. Lempert was appointed as Secretary of the Company by the Board of Directors also in July 2019. In the second half of Fiscal 2020, the Company began significantly increasing its engineering, manufacturing and marketing activities. From July 8, 2019 through the end of Fiscal year 2022 (February 28, 2022), we shipped more than 140 units to customers (more than a ten-fold increase over Fiscal 2019). Although our operations were impacted in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021 by the COVID-19 pandemic, during these periods we continued to expand our engineering and manufacturing capabilities. See “Item 1. Business. Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2022 for information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our operations. Our engineering, research and development costs for the nine months ended November 30, 2023, and the nine months ended November 30, 2022 were approximately $228 and $411, respectively. During the three months ended May 31, 2021, we relocated all administrative offices and operations to a new state-of-the-art facility consisting of approximately 18,000 square feet in Lake Forest, California. This new facility is wholly occupied by Aura.

During Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2019, the Company’s engineering, manufacturing, sales, and marketing activities were reduced while we focused on renegotiating numerous financial obligations. During this time, the Company’s agreements with numerous customers, third party vendors, and organizations and entities material to the operation of the Company business were canceled, delayed or terminated. During Fiscal 2018, the Company successfully restructured in excess of $30,000 of debt. Robert Kopple, our former Vice Chairman of the Board, was the only significant unsecured note holder that did not executed formal agreements regarding the restructure of his debt. See “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2022 filed with the SEC on June 21, 2022, and Part II, Other Information Item 1, contained in this Quarterly Report for information regarding the dispute and settlement with Mr. Kopple regarding these transactions. In March 2022, the Company reached a settlement that resolves the various claims asserted against us by Mr. Kopple and his affiliated entities (collectively the “Kopple Parties”). Under the terms of the settlement, we have agreed to pay an aggregate amount of $10,000 over a period of seven years; $3,000 of which is to be paid within approximately four months of the settlement date, after which, interest will accrue on the unpaid balance at a rate of 6%, compounded annually. All amounts, including all accrued interest, are to be paid no later than eight years from the date of the initial payment. The Kopple Parties have also received seven-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,331,664 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.85 per share. The settlement also provides for standard mutual general release provisions and includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including certain increases in the amount payable to the Kopple Parties and the right of such parties to enter judgment against the Company if the Company remains in uncured default in its payment obligations under the settlement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. In preparing our financial statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. For these key estimates and assumptions, we made appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. To the extent that there are significant differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial statements may be materially affected. Significant estimates include assumptions made for inventory reserve, impairment testing of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, assumptions used in valuing derivative liabilities, assumptions used in valuing share-based compensation, and accruals for potential liabilities. Amounts could materially change in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There were no changes to our critical accounting policies described in the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2023, that impacted our condensed financial statements and related notes included herein.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In accordance with ASC 606, we recognize revenue, net of discounts, for our generator sets at time of product delivery to the domestic distributor (i.e. point-in-time), which also corresponds to the passage of legal title to the customer and the satisfaction of our performance obligations to the customer.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, on an average cost basis. We review the components of inventory on a regular basis for excess or obsolete inventory based on estimated future usage and sales. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference is recognized as a loss in the period in which it occurs. Once inventory has been written down, it creates a new cost basis for inventory that may not be subsequently written up.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Inflation

Higher inflation, the actions by the Federal Reserve Bank to address inflation, most notably continuing increases in interest rates, and rising energy prices create uncertainty about the future economic environment. The Company expects that the impact of these issues will continue to evolve. The Company believes these factors impacted the Company’s business in 2023 and the first nine months of 2024 and will continue to impact the Company’s business in 2024 and 2025. The implications of higher government deficits and debt, tighter monetary policy, and higher long-term interest rates may drive a higher cost of capital for the business and an increase in the Company’s operating expenses.

COVID-19

Results of Operations

Three months ended November 30, 2023 compared to three months ended November 30, 2022

Net revenue was $47 for the three-months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $54 for the three-months ended November 30, 2022. Revenues continue to be negatively impacted due to a generally low level of resources on our legacy products as well as our shift to the development and production of the prototype for our new product line. We cannot project with confidence the timing or amount of revenue that we can expect until the prototype is completed which should be in Fiscal 2024.

Cost of goods sold was $98 in the three-months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $26 for the three-months ended November 30, 2022. This resulted in a gross loss of $52 compared to a gross profit of $28 for the three-months ended November 30, 2022. The gross loss and related gross margin loss for both the three-month periods were largely influenced by the low volume of shipments in this quarter which reduced our ability to fully absorb fixed operating costs. In addition, the gross margin loss in the three-months ended November 30, 2023 included an increase in the inventory reserve of $32.

Engineering, research and development expenses were $34 in the three-months ended November 30, 2023, compared to $229 for the three-months ended November 30, 2022. The decrease was due to decreased development by the engineering staff of the new prototype for our new product line as we get closer to completion.

Selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by $113 or 19% to $494 in the three-month period ending November 30, 2023 compared to the three-months ended November 30, 2022. The decrease was principally attributed to lower legal costs of $142, and lower selling fees of $5 due to lower sales.

Interest expense increased $71 during the three-months ended November 30, 2023 compared to the three-months ended November 30, 2022 due principally to the settlement of the Kopple litigation which resulted in the conversion of the Kopple notes payable into a new note. The new note did not accrue interest until January 2023, so the three-months ended November 30, 2022 did not include any Kopple-based interest.

Nine months ended November 30, 2023 compared to nine months ended November 30, 2022

Net revenue was approximately $57 for the nine-months ended November 30, 2023 (“Fiscal Q3 2024”) compared to approximately $70 for the nine-months ended November 30, 2022 (“Fiscal Q3 2023”). Revenues continue to be negatively due to a generally low level of resources of our Legacy products as we concentrate on building our new product line. To increase revenues which were impacted by the economic effects of the pandemic, the Company needs to augment its marketing and sales efforts substantially towards our new product line to be released in early Fiscal 2025.

Cost of goods sold was approximately $194 in Fiscal Q3 2024 compared to approximately $56 in Fiscal Q3 2023. This resulted in a gross loss of approximately $137 or a gross margin loss of 239%, and approximately $15 gross profit and a gross margin gain of 21%, in Fiscal Q3 2024 and Fiscal Q3 2023, respectively. The gross loss and related gross margin loss for both the nine-month periods were largely influenced by the low volume of shipments in both quarters which reduced our ability to fully absorb fixed operating costs. In addition, the gross margin loss in Fiscal Q3 2024 included an increase in the inventory reserve of $32.

Engineering, research and development expenses were approximately $528 in Fiscal Q3 2024, compared to approximately $640 in the Fiscal Q3 2023, or a decrease of 18%. Fiscal Q2 2024 includes a higher engineering staff level and a concentrated effort to optimize the Company’s several new designs of its generators and motors. Fiscal Q3 2023 reflects the Company’s initial efforts to increase its development program, including costs for engineering several new designs, as well as increased testing of its new electronic control unit (“ECU”).

Selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by approximately $684 or 34% to approximately $1,344 in the Fiscal Q3 2024 period from approximately $2,028 in the Fiscal Q3 2023 period. The decrease during Fiscal Q3 2024 was principally attributed to lower legal costs of $548 almost exclusively related to the settlement of the Kopple litigation in the Fiscal Q1 2023 period. Accounting fees were also down by $31. Selling costs were down by $94 due to lower sales.

Interest expense in Fiscal Q3 2024 increased approximately $681 or 139%, to approximately $1,171 from approximately $489 in the Fiscal Q3 2023 period due principally to the settlement of the Kopple litigation which resulted in the conversion of the Kopple notes payable into a new note. The new note did not accrue interest until January 2023, so FQ3 2023 included no Kopple-based interest. In Fiscal Q3 2024, $472 of interest was accrued on the unpaid balance of the restructured Kopple note, and in addition, the Company recorded $390 of extension and forbearance fees, which are being categorized as interest.

Other income in the Fiscal Q3 2024 period was approximately $9 which represents the favorable change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liability for the nine-months, measured as of November 30, 2023. Comparatively, the revaluation of the derivative warrant liability in Fiscal Q3 2023, measured as of November 30, 2022, resulted in a favorable change in the fair value of approximately $560 for the nine-month period.

Net loss for the nine-month period of Fiscal Q3 2024 increased by approximately $589, to a loss of approximately $3,171 from a net loss of approximately $2,582 in the nine-month period of Fiscal Q3 2023. This was attributed to (i) a significantly lower net gain related to derivative liability valuation of approximately $551 and (ii) higher interest expense of approximately $681, which were partially offset by (i) a decreased operating loss of $644 principally attributable to the lower legal expenses related to the Kopple settlement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Going Concern

During the nine-month period ended November 30, 2023, the Company reported a net loss of $3,171 and used cash in operating activities of approximately $2,178. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s February 28, 2023, financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

During the next twelve months we intend to continue to attempt to increase the Company’s operations and focus on the sale of our AuraGen^®®/VIPER products both domestically and internationally and to add to our existing management team. In addition, we plan to source new suppliers for manufacturing operations, rebuild the engineering and sales teams, and to the extent appropriate, utilize third party contractors to support the operation. We anticipate being able to obtain new sources of funding to support these actions in the upcoming fiscal year.

At November 30, 2023, we had cash of approximately $45, compared to cash of approximately $15 at February 28, 2023. Subsequent to November 30, 2023, the Company issued 766,668 shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds of approximately $253. Working capital deficit at November 30, 2023 was a $14,600 deficit as compared to an $13,700 deficit at February 28, 2023. At November 30, 2023 and February 28, 2023, we had no accounts receivable.

Prior to Fiscal 2020, in order to maintain liquidity, we relied upon external sources of financing, principally equity financing and private indebtedness. We have no bank line of credit and will require additional debt or equity financing to fund ongoing operations. Based on a cash flow analysis performed by management, we estimate that we will need an additional $6,000 to maintain existing operations for Fiscal 2025 and increase the volume of shipments to customers. We cannot assure the reader that additional financing will be available nor that the commercial targets will be met in the amounts required to keep the business operating. The issuance of additional shares of equity in connection with such financing could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders, and such dilution could be substantial. If we cannot raise the needed funds, we will also be forced to make further substantial reductions in our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our current business plan and ultimately our viability as a company.

See “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” and “Part IV, Item 15, Notes 9 and 17 to the Financial Statements” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2023 for information regarding the dispute and settlement with Mr. Kopple regarding these transactions.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide disclosure under this Item 3.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of August 31, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2023, not previously identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2023 and issued on May 26, 2023 which have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to the legal proceedings and claims discussed below as well as certain other legal proceedings and claims that have not been fully resolved and that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Our management evaluates our exposure to these claims and proceedings individually and in the aggregate and evaluates potential losses on such litigation if the amount of the loss is estimable and the loss is probable. However, the outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company is subject to significant uncertainty. Although management considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial statements for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

In 2017, the Company’s former COO was awarded approximately $238 in accrued salary and related charges by the California labor board. In August 2021, the Company reached a settlement by which the Company agreed to pay approximately $330, representing the principal award plus accrued interest. As of the time of this filing, the Company has paid approximately $317 toward the settlement amount. The remaining balance of approximately $13 is to be paid no later than February 28, 2024 and accrues interest of 10% per annum until paid.

Between July 2017 and March 2022, the Company was engaged in litigation with a former director, Robert Kopple, relating to more than $13,000 and the current equivalent of the approximately 23 million warrants, exercisable for seven years at a price of $0.10 per share, which Mr. Kopple and his affiliated entities (collectively the “Kopple Parties”) claimed should have been originally issued to them pursuant to various agreements with the Company entered to between 2013-2016. In March 2022, the Company reached a settlement with the Kopple Parties that resolved all claims asserted against the Company without any admission, concession or finding of any fault, liability or wrongdoing on the part of the Company. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to pay an aggregate amount of $10,000 over a period of seven years, including $3,000 initial payment to be paid in June 2022. $150 was paid in June 2022, and the balance of the initial payment of $2,850 was extended to August 1, 2023, In exchange for the extension, the Company was required to pay $195 in extension and forbearance fees in cash and $530 in accrued forbearance fees. Beginning in January 2023, interest accrues on the unpaid balance at a rate of 6%, compounded annually. All amounts, including all accrued interest and deferred fees, are to be paid no later than eight years from the date of the initial payment. The Kopple Parties have also received seven-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,331,664 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.85 per share. The settlement also provides for standard mutual general release provisions and includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including certain increases in the amount payable to the Kopple Parties and the right of such parties to enter judgment against the Company if the Company remains in uncured default in its payment obligations under the settlement. As of the date of this report, the Company has not yet paid the full $3,000 installment due to Kopple, having made an initial payment of $150 in June 2022. The Company and Koppel have agreed in principle to another extension of the deadlines for payments owed by Aura to Plaintiffs and intend to memorialize such an agreement in writing on or before January 31, 2024. Such further amendment will also indicate that by such extension Aura is not in default on the Binding Term Sheet (See Part I, Note 5 to the Financial Statements).On March 26, 2019, various stockholders of the Company controlling a combined total of more than 27.5 million shares delivered a signed written consent to the Company removing Ronald Buschur as a member of the Company’s Board and electing Cipora Lavut as a director of the Company. On March 27, 2019, those same stockholders delivered a further signed written consent to the Company removing William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu as members of the Company’s Board and electing Robert Lempert and David Mann as directors of the Company. These written consents represented a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of March 26, 2019, and March 27, 2019, respectively. Because of Aura’s refusal to recognize the legal effectiveness of the consents, on April 8, 2019, the stockholders filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware pursuant to Section 225 of the Delaware General Corporations Law, seeking an order confirming the validity of the consents and declaring that Aura’s Board consists of Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann, Dr. Lempert, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Diaz-Versón, Jr. On July 8, 2019 the Court of Chancery entered final judgment in favor of the stockholder plaintiffs, confirming that (a) Ronald Buschur, Si Ryong Yu and William Anderson had been validly removed by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent (b) Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann and Dr. Lempert had been validly elected by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent, and (c) the Company’s Board of Directors validly consists of Cipora Lavut, David Mann, Robert Lempert, Gary Douglas and Salvador Diaz-Versón, Jr. As a result of prior management’s unsuccessful opposition to this stockholders’ action filed in the Court of Chancery, such stockholders may be potentially entitled to recoup their litigation costs from the Company under Delaware’s corporate benefit doctrine and/or other legal provisions. To date, no final determination has been made as to the amount of recoupment, if any, to which such stockholders may be entitled.

2024 Yes No 0.01 0.01 0.03 0.03 100396097 87433942 90759938 98247106 Kopple Note In fiscals 2013 through 2018, the Company issued notes payable to Robert Kopple and associated entities (collectively “Kopple”) in the aggregate principal amount of $6,107. Robert Kopple is the former Vice-Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and is a current shareholder in the Company. Between July 2017 and March 2022, the Company was engaged in litigation with Kopple relating to more than $13,000 of principal and accrued interest due under the notes, and the equivalent of the approximately 23 million warrants. On March 14, 2022, the Company reached an agreement with Kopple and resolved all remaining litigation between them, including all amounts owed to Kopple under the notes. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to issue a new note and pay Kopple an aggregate amount of $10,000, including $3,000 initially due in June 2022, and $1,000 to be paid annually for seven years after the initial $3,000 is paid. Additionally, the settlement agreement granted Koppel a five year, fully vested warrant exercisable into 3,331,664 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.85 per share with a fair value of $1,100. The Company assessed the settlement with Kopple under ASC 470 and determined that the guidance under troubled debt restructuring should apply. The carrying value of the restructured note remains the same as before the restructuring, reduced only by the fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the transaction. The Company determined that the future undiscounted cash flows of the restructured new Kopple note exceeded the carrying value, and accordingly, no gain was recognized, and no adjustment was made to the carrying value of the debt, other than the adjustment for the fair value of the warrants. Interest expense on the new Kopple note is computed using a new effective rate that equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the new terms with the carrying value of the debt. In June 2022, the first installment of $3,000 became due, of which $150 was paid and $2,850 is still outstanding. Subsequently, the note was amended several times to extend the payment date of the remaining balance of $2,850 of the initial payment through January 2023, and the Company incurred extension and forbearance fees totaling $335.In January 2023, pursuant to the terms of the amended note payable, the Company started accruing interest on the outstanding note balance at a rate of 6% per annum, compounded annually. As of February 28, 2023, outstanding principal balance amounted to $10,915. During the nine months ended November 30, 2023, the note was again amended multiple times to extend the payment term of the remaining balance of $2,850 of the initial payment and installment payment of $1,000, originally due in June 2023, through August 1, 2023. As a result of these amendments, the Company incurred additional extension and forbearance fees totaling $390 and adjustment to principal balance of $23. As of November 30, 2023, the outstanding principal balance of amounted to $10,938. As of November 30, 2023 and the date of this report, the Company and Kopple are currently in negotiations for another extension of the deadline for payment of the $3,850, consisting of the $2,850 initial payment and the installment payment of $1,000. Currently, Kopple has agreed in principle that such further amendment will also indicate that the Company is not in default of the agreement as of November 30, 2023, and through the date that the financial statements are issued. Based upon the foregoing no adjustments have been made to reflect the Kopple debt in default. The settlement agreement with Kopple provides for certain increases in the amounts payable to Kopple and the right of such parties to enter a judgement against the Company if the Company remains in unsecured default in its payment obligations. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company is also subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants such as periodic submission of financial statements to Koppel and restrictions on future financing and investing activities, as defined in the agreement, including the covenant to not create any indebtedness that is senior in right of payment to the Kopple debt. Management believes such covenants are normal for this type of transaction and that management believes meeting these covenants will not affect operations and the Company. Note payable-Gagerman Melvin Gagerman, the Company’s former CEO and CFO whose employment was permanently terminated in July 2019, claims that in April 2014 the Company issued an unsecured demand promissory note to him in the amount of $82 that bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Gagerman claims that this note has not been repaid to date and is now owed. In June 2022, Gagerman brought suit against the Company for repayment of this alleged note. Despite the fact that, based on Gagerman’s allegations, the note was issued during a period when Gagerman was the Company’s CEO, CFO, Corporate Secretary and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, Gagerman has stated that he does not possess a copy of the alleged promissory note. The Company disputes that any amount is presently owed to Gagerman. Additionally, the Company has filed a cross-complaint against Gagerman for, among things, conversion, violation of California Business & Professions Code §17200, and various breaches of fiduciary duty that the Company believes Gagerman committed against the Company. Although the Company disputes Gagerman’s claims, under the guidance of ASC 450 – Contingencies, the Company has recorded the claimed note payable $82 and corresponding accrued interest. Jiangsu Shengfeng Note On November 20, 2019, the Company reached an agreement with a former joint venture partner Jiangsu Shengfeng regarding the return of $700 that had been advanced to the Company in prior years. As a result, in November 2019, the Company issued a non-interest-bearing promissory note for $700 to be paid over an 11-month period beginning March 15, 2020, through February 15, 2021. As of November 30, 2023 and February 28, 2023, the outstanding balance of this note payable amounted to $700. The Company is currently in negotiations with the noteholder to settle or extinguish the note payable. false --02-28 Q3 0000826253 000-17249 0000826253 2023-03-01 2023-11-30 0000826253 2024-01-16
