Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Flux Power, Inc.
San Diego, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Flux Power, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2011, and for the eight month period ended June 30, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Flux Power, Inc. as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2011, and for the eight month period ended June 30, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. Nature of Operations
|
Flux Power, Inc. (“the Company” or “Flux”) was founded in 2009 in the State of California to design, develop and sell rechargeable advanced energy storage systems. The Company has structured its business around its core technology, “The Battery Management System” (“BMS”). The Company’s BMS provides three critical functions to their battery systems: cell balancing, monitoring and error reporting. Using its proprietary management technology, the Company is able to offer complete integrated energy storage solutions or custom modular standalone systems to their clients. The Company also developed a suite of complementary technologies and products that accompany their core products. The Company began operations in November 2009, therefore fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 represents an eight month period. Sales during 2011 and 2010, were primarily to customers located throughout the Unites States. |
2. Liquidity
|
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $1,943,000. The Company also had negative cash flows from operations of approximately $743,000 for the year ended June 30, 2011. The Company has evaluated the expected cash requirements over the next twelve months, which includes, but is not limited to, investments in additional sales and marketing and product development resources, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. The Company believes it has sufficient funds for the next twelve months from the balance sheet date, as it expects to cover its anticipated operating expenses through cash on hand, additional customer billings, and borrowings under its stockholder notes payable.
The Company expects to require additional financing in the future. The timing of the Company’s need for additional capital will depend in part on its future operating performance in terms of revenue growth and the level of operating expenses maintained.
A majority shareholder has agreed to support the Company through loan agreements. During October 2011, the Company entered into a new note payable with this majority shareholder for up to $1,000,000, maturing in September 2013. In addition, the Company’s existing debt balances were converted to equity during December 2011. See Note 10. However, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to obtain additional funds in the future or that funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If such funds are not available, management will be required to curtail its investments in additional sales and marketing and product development resources, and capital expenditures, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s future cash flows and results of operations, and its ability to fund operations. |

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows. |
Fair value of financial instruments
|
The carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
|
Use of estimates |
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. The Company has used significant estimates in its determination of the reserve for inventory, sales returns, and warranty claims. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
Accounts receivable and customer deposits |
Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. The Company generally requires advance deposits from its customers prior to shipment of the ordered products.
The Company has not experienced collection issues related to its accounts receivable, and has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2011 and 2010. |
Inventories and prepaid inventory | Inventories consist primarily of battery management systems and the related subcomponents, and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Prepaid inventory represents deposits made by the Company for inventory purchases. The Company evaluates inventories to determine if write-downs are necessary due to obsolescence or if the inventory levels are in excess of anticipated demand at market value based on consideration of historical sales and product development plans. There were no write-downs of inventory determined necessary during the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. |
Fixed assets | Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from three to ten years, of the related assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, over the lesser of the useful life of the related asset or the lease term. |

Flux Power, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
Stock- based compensation
|
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the authoritative guidance for share-based payments and for equity instruments issued to employees and non-employees, as applicable. The fair market value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the stock options granted is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, using the straight-line method. |
Income taxes
|
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the combination of the tax payable for the year and the change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the guidance related to uncertain tax positions during the period ended June 30, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not result in an adjustment to the financial statements. |
Revenue recognition
|
The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the selling price is reasonably assured. Delivery occurs when risk of loss is passed to the customer, as specified by the terms of the applicable customer agreements.
When implied right of return exists, the Company recognizes revenue on the sell through-method. Under this method, revenue is not recognized upon delivery of the inventory components. Instead, the Company records deferred revenue upon delivery and recognizes revenue when the inventory components are sold through to the end user.
The Company evaluates its exposure to sales returns and warranty issues based on historical information. The Company did not record an allowance for sales returns or warranty issues during 2011 and 2010. |
Shipping and handling costs
|
The Company records shipping and handling costs charged to customers as revenue and shipping and handling costs to cost of sales as incurred.
|

Flux Power, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with authoritative guidance for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, if indicators of impairment exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of the affected long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows.
If impairment is indicated, the Company measures the amount of such impairment by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the present value of the expected future cash flows associated with the use of the asset. The Company believes the future cash flows to be received from the long-lived assets in use will exceed the assets' carrying value, and accordingly the Company has not recognized any impairment losses during the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
|
Research and development |
The Company is actively engaged in new product development efforts. Research and development costs relating to possible future products are expensed as incurred.
|
Reclassifications |
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net losses.
|
New accounting standards |
In May 2011, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to fair value measurements to provide a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands the existing disclosure requirements. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
|

Flux Power, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
New accounting standards, cont’d |
In April 2010, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to ASC Topic No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASC No. 718 stipulates that a share-based payment award that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or a service condition is required to be classified as a liability. This update clarifies that when an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s securities trades differs from the functional currency of the employer entity or payroll currency of the employee, such award should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010, which will be the Company’s 2012 fiscal year. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied and should be presented separately. Early adoption is permitted; however, the Company did not adopt the amendments early. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on its financial statements. |
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), or ASU 2010-06, which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that require new disclosures and that clarify existing disclosures in order to increase transparency in financial reporting with regard to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures with respect to the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for those transfers, as well as separate presentation about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). In addition, ASU 2010-06 provides amendments that clarify existing disclosures, requiring a reporting entity to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. Finally, ASU 2010-06 amends guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets under ASC 715 to require that disclosures be provided by classes of assets instead of by major categories of assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for the interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Accordingly, ASU 2010-06 became effective for the Company on January 3, 2010 (except for the Level 3 activity disclosures, which became effective for the Company on January 2, 2011). The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |

5. Commitments and Contingencies
|
On July 1, 2010, the Company entered into a cancelable lease for its office space. The lease provides for monthly payments of approximately $13,000, expires on June 30, 2011, and contains a one-year renewal option, which the Company exercised as of July 1, 2011. In July of 2010 the Company entered into a sublease with a related party for approximately $6,600 per month for a portion of this space. The sublease was terminated on January 1, 2012. The Company recorded rent expense, net of sublease income, of approximately $133,000 and $15,000 during the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
In March 2011, the Company entered into a brokerage agreement with a management consulting firm to provide investors to the Company. The term of the agreement is for a period of one year. The compensation to the consulting firm includes a monthly fee with additional compensation based on a percentage of the amount raised, and includes an equity component in the form of warrant coverage. The Company recorded expense of approximately $16,000 related to the brokerage agreement during the year ended June 30, 2011. |
6. Stockholders’ Equity
|
At June 30, 2011, the Company had 100,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for issuance. |

6. Stockholders’ Equity, Cont’d
|
Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets legally available to the Company. Dividends are declared and paid in an equal per-share amount on the outstanding shares of each series of common stock. During the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Board of Directors neither declared nor paid common stock dividends to shareholders.
|
During the period ended June 30, 2010, the Company issued 11,500,000 shares of common stock in exchange for approximately $460,000 in cash, $322,000 in net assets (approximately $236,000 of inventory and prepaid inventory, and approximately $86,000 of fixed assets), $68,000 in services, and $400 in a note receivable. The note was subsequently collected in 2011.
| |
Stock-based compensation
|
The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Company’s 2010 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan authorizes the granting of stock options to employees, directors and consultants at exercise prices determined by the Board of Directors.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options. The fair value of stock options was measured at the grant date using the assumptions in the table below:
|
Employee | Non-Employee | |||
Expected volatility | 100% | 100% | ||
Risk-free interest rate | 1.40% to 2.14% | 3.03% | ||
Forfeiture rate | 5% | 5% | ||
Dividend yield | 0% | 0% | ||
Expected term (yrs) | 5 | 10 |

Stock-based compensation, cont’d
|
Expected Volatility – The result obtained by the expected volatility used is not expected to be materially different than what would be obtained if it were based on a peer group in the industry in which the Company does business.
Risk-free Interest Rate – The Company applies the risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant.
Forfeitures – Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statement of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, reduced for estimated forfeitures. The authoritative guidance related to the accounting for stock options requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures were estimated based on Management’s expectation of projected forfeitures.
Dividend Yield – The Company has not, and does not, intend to pay dividends.
Expected Term in Years – The expected term is based upon the Company’s consideration of the historical life of options, the vesting period of the option granted and the contractual period of the option granted. The Company calculated the expected term for employee options as the average of the contractual term of the option and the vesting period, consistent with the authoritative guidance. The Company calculated the expected term for non-employee options as the contractual term of the option.
|
Weighted Average Fair Value of Options Granted – Using the weighted average assumptions described above, the weighted average fair value of options granted to employees and non-employees during 2011 was $0.10 and $0.12, respectively.
Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by the Company under the authoritative guidance. | |
A summary of the Company’s stock option activity is as follows: |
Number of shares | Weighted average exercise price | |||||||
Options outstanding at June 30, 2010 | - | $ | - | |||||
Granted | 710,000 | 0.13 | ||||||

Notes to Financial Statements
Stock-based compensation, |
The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2011 was $0, based on the difference between the exercise price and the value of the Company’s common stock of $0.13 at June 30, 2011. |
During 2011 total stock-based compensation expense included in the statement of operations for employee option grants and non-employee option grants was approximately $47,000 and $11,000, respectively, charged as follows: |
Selling, general and administrative | $ | 22,000 | ||
Research and development | 36,000 | |||
Total stock-based compensation expense | $ | 58,000 |
|
The Company has a 100% valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets; therefore, the stock-based compensation has no tax effect on the statement of operations.
|
|
As of June 30, 2011, there was $9,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan to employees. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.92 years.
During the period ended June 30, 2010, the Company issued 658,329 shares of common stock in exchange for services and recorded approximately $68,000 in related expense.
|
7. Income Taxes |
As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, a non-current deferred tax asset of approximately $774,000 and $250,000, respectively, had been recognized primarily for the temporary differences related to federal and state net operating loss carry forwards.
There was a fully offsetting valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets recorded as of June 30, 2011 and 2010. The valuation allowance may be reduced at such time as management is able to determine that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be utilized. The valuation allowance was approximately $774,000 and $250,000 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

7. Income Taxes, Cont’d
|
At June 30, 2011, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,645,000 and state tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,608,000. The federal and state tax loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2029.
Utilization of the net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). These ownership changes may limit the amount of NOL carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. In general, an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the outstanding stock of a company by certain stockholders.
The Company has not completed a study to assess whether an ownership change has occurred or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since the Company's formation due to the complexity and cost associated with such a study, and the fact that there may be additional such ownership changes in the future. If the Company has experienced an ownership change at any time since its formation, utilization of the NOL carryforwards would be subject to an annual limitation. Any limitation may result in expiration of a portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization. Further, until a study is completed and any limitation known, no amounts are being considered as an uncertain tax position or disclosed as an unrecognized tax benefit. Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, future changes in the Company's unrecognized tax benefits will not impact its effective tax rate. Any carryforwards that will expire prior to utilization as a result of such limitations will be removed from deferred tax assets with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance.
|
During the period ended June 30, 2010, the Company adopted the authoritative guidance for uncertainties in income taxes. As of June 30, 2011, the Company's tax years from inception are subject to examination by the tax authorities. The Company is not currently under examination by U.S. federal or state jurisdictions. The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2011. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties that would be assessed in relation to the settlement value of unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. |

9. Concentrations

Credit risk |
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and unsecured trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash balances at a financial institution in San Diego, California. Accounts at this institution are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

Customer- related party |
During 2010 the Company had one related party major customer that accounted for 31% of the Company’s total sales. No receivables were outstanding from this customer as of June 30, 2010.

Customer |
During 2011 the Company had one major customer that accounted for 19% of the Company’s total sales. During 2010 the Company had four other major customers that combined accounted for 79% of the Company’s total sales. No receivables were outstanding from the major customers as of June 30, 2011 and 2010.
Based on the current financial condition of the Company’s major customer, Management believes the revenues earned during 2011 and 2010 are likely to be non-recurring in future years. |
Vendor
|
During 2011 and 2010 the Company had one major vendor that accounted for 67% and 70%, respectively, of the Company’s total purchases. No payables were owed to the major vendor as of June 30, 2011 and 2010. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers which could produce the battery management systems, management believes other manufacturers could produce the products on comparable terms. A change in manufacturer, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and adversely affect results. |
