Bloom Energy Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The unaudited interim financial statements reflects all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.
The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
1. Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Business
For information on the nature of our business, see Part II, Item 8, Note 1 - Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation, Nature of Business section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
We have not experienced any supply chain disruptions as a result of the invasion by the Russian Federation in Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
Liquidity
We have generally incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. With the series of new debt offerings, debt extensions and conversions to equity that we completed during 2020 and 2021, we had $291.0 million of total outstanding recourse debt as of June 30, 2022, $278.5 million of which is classified as long-term debt. Our recourse debt scheduled repayments commenced in June 2022.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development efforts and other business initiatives, the rate of growth in the volume of system builds and the need for additional manufacturing space, the expansion of sales and marketing activities both in domestic and international markets, market acceptance of our product, our ability to secure financing for customer use of our Energy Servers, the timing of installations, and overall economic conditions including the impact of COVID-19 and inflationary pressure in the US on our ongoing and future operations. The rising interest rates in the US will adversely impact the cost of new capital deployment.
In the opinion of management, the combination of our existing cash and cash equivalents and operating cash flows is expected to be sufficient to meet our operational and capital cash flow requirements and other cash flow needs for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and as permitted by those rules, including all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Principles of Consolidation
For information on principles of consolidation, see Part II, Item 8, Note 1 - Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation, Principles of Consolidation section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates
For information on the use of accounting estimates, see Part II, Item 8, Note 1 - Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation, Use of Estimates section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Concentration of Risk
Geographic Risk - The majority of our revenue and long-lived assets are attributable to operations in the United States for all periods presented. In addition to shipments in the US, we also ship our Energy Servers to other countries, primarily to the Republic of Korea, Japan, and India (collectively, the "Asia Pacific region"). In the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, total revenue in the Asia Pacific region was 62% and 63%, respectively, of our total revenue. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, total revenue in the Asia Pacific region was 34% and 39%, respectively, of our total revenue.
Credit Risk - At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, one customer accounted for approximately 56% and 60% of accounts receivable, respectively. To date, we have not experienced any credit losses.
Customer Risk - During the three months ended June 30, 2022, two customers represented approximately 57% and 16% of our total revenue, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, two customers represented approximately 45% and 15% of our total revenue, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from three customers represented 31%, 26% and 12% of our total revenue, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from two customers represented 36% and 14% of our total revenue, respectively.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Please refer to the accounting policies described in Part II, Item 8, Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no significant changes in our reported financial position or results of operations and cash flows resulting from the adoption of new accounting pronouncements.
Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities Acquired in a Business Combination - In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2021-08"), which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. ASU 2021-08 will be effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption impact of ASU 2021-08 will depend on the magnitude of any future acquisitions. The standard will not impact acquired contract assets or liabilities from business combinations occurring prior to the adoption date.

Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in a net position on an individual contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets are classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheet when the Company expects to complete the related performance obligations and invoice the customers within one year of the balance sheet date, and as long-term when the Company expects to complete the related performance obligations and invoice the customers more than one year out from the balance sheet date. Contract liabilities are classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheet when the revenue recognition associated with the related customer payments and invoicing is expected to occur within one year of the balance sheet date and as long-term when the revenue recognition associated with the related customer payments and invoicing is expected to occur in more than one year from the balance sheet date.

PPA IIIa Upgrade
In June 2022, we started a project to replace 9.8 megawatts of second-generation Energy Servers (the "old Energy Servers") at PPA IIIa Investment Company and Operating Company ("PPA IIIa") with current generation Energy Servers (the "new Energy Servers") (the "PPA IIIa Upgrade", the "PPA IIIa Repowering"). The replacement was ongoing as of June 30, 2022. See Note 11 - Portfolio Financing for additional information.
16


Change in Estimate
In June 2022, due to the replacement of old Energy Servers as part of the PPA IIIa Repowering, we revised the expected useful life of the old Energy Servers. As a result, the expected useful life of old Energy Servers decreased from 15 years to approximately 0.5 years. We recognized accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million in electricity cost of revenue on the revised carrying amount of the old Energy Servers after impairment loss in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. There is no effect from this change in accounting estimate on future periods.

11. Portfolio Financings
Overview
We have developed various financing options that enable customers' use of the Energy Servers through third-party ownership financing arrangements. For additional information on these financing options, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
PPA IIIa Repowering of Energy Servers
PPA IIIa was established in 2012 and we, through a special purpose subsidiary (the “Project Company”), had previously entered into certain agreements for the purpose of developing, financing, owning, operating, maintaining and managing a portfolio of 9.8 megawatts of Energy Servers.
On March 31, 2022, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement where we bought out the equity interest of the third-party investor, wherein the PPA IIIa became wholly owned by us (the "Buyout").
Following the Buyout and prior to June 14, 2022, we repaid all outstanding debt of the Project Company of $30.6 million, and recognized loss on extinguishment of debt in an amount of $4.2 million, which includes the write-off of the debt discount related to warrants of $1.8 million and a make-whole payment of $2.4 million associated with the debt extinguishment. Refer to Note 7 - Outstanding Loans and Security Agreements, Non-recourse Debt Facilities section.
On June 14, 2022, we sold our 100% interest in the Project Company to Generate C&I Warehouse, LLC (“Generate”) through a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (“MIPA”). Simultaneously, we entered into an agreement with the Project Company to upgrade the old 9.8 megawatts of Energy Servers (the “old Energy Servers”) by replacing them with a newer generation of Energy Servers ("new Energy Servers") and providing related installation services, which was financed by Generate (the “EPC Agreement”). The old Energy Servers will be removed prior to installing the new Energy Servers, whereby upon completion of installation the old Energy Servers will be returned to Bloom. We also amended and restated our operations and maintenance agreement with the Project Company to cover all new Energy Servers and old Energy Servers prior to their upgrade (“the O&M Agreement”). The operations and maintenance fees under the O&M Agreement are paid on a fixed dollar per kilowatt basis.
Certain power purchase agreements within the PPA IIIa portfolio were classified as sales-type leases under ASC 840, while some were classified as operating leases. The Company elected the practical expedient package with the adoption of ASC 842, which allowed the Company to carry forward the lease classification upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2020. The leases were modified prior to the sale of the PPA IIIa to Generate. Such modified leases were reassessed and determined to not be leases under ASC 842 because customers have no control over the identified assets. Accordingly, on the date of modification, the customer financing receivables were derecognized and recognized as property, plant, and equipment (“PPA IIIa PP&E”).
Due to our repurchase option on the old Energy Servers, the Company concluded there was no transfer of control of the old Energy Servers upon sale of the membership interest to Generate. Accordingly, the Company continued to recognize the old Energy Servers, despite the legal ownership of such assets under the MIPA. Upon reclassification of the lease assets to PP&E, the Company assessed the recorded assets for impairment. The carrying amount of the PPA IIIa PP&E was determined to be not recoverable as the net undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amounts for PPA IIIa PP&E. Therefore, we recognized the asset impairment charge as electricity cost, consistent with depreciation expense classification for property, plant and equipment under leases.
The PPA IIIa Upgrade was in progress as of June 30, 2022 and resulted in the following summarized impacts on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022: (i) cash and cash equivalents decreased by $6.4 million mainly due to $30.6 million for the repayment of outstanding debt, offset by $26.6 million cash receipts from the sale of new Energy Servers to the Project Company, (ii) both customer financing receivables, current and non-current, and property plant and equipment, net decreased by $5.9 million, $36.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, due to the impairment of $44.8 million and accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million of the existing old Energy Servers (we revised the expected useful life of the old Energy Servers from 15 years to approximately 0.5 years which resulted in recognized accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million in electricity cost of revenue (refer to Note 6)), (iii) contract assets increased by $17.0 million, (iv) inventories and deferred cost of revenue decreased by $16.7 million, and (v) other liabilities increased by $7.4 million. Impacts on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are summarized as follows: (i) net product and installation revenue recognized of $36.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, as a result of the sale of new Energy Servers; (ii) cost of electricity revenue of $45.0 million including the write-off of old Energy Servers of $44.8 million, accelerated depreciation of $0.2 million prior to the completion of installation; (iii) cost of product and installation revenue of
26


$15.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, due to the sale of new Energy Servers sale; and (iv) $4.2 million of loss on extinguishment of debt.
Impacts on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are summarized as follows: net cash used in financing activities increased by $32.6 million due to the repayment of debt of $30.2 million and cash fee of $2.4 million associated with debt extinguishment.
PPA Entities’ Aggregate Assets and Liabilities
Generally, the assets of an operating company owned by an investment company can be used to settle only the operating company obligations, and the operating company creditors do not have recourse to us. The following are the aggregate carrying values of our VIEs' assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, after eliminations of intercompany transactions and balances, including as of June 30, 2022 each of the PPA Entities in the PPA IV transaction and the PPA V transaction, and as of December 31, 2021 each of the PPA Entities in the PPA IIIa transaction, the PPA IV transaction and the PPA V transaction (in thousands):

We consolidated each PPA Entity as VIEs in the PPA IV transaction and the PPA V transaction, as we remain the minority shareholder in each of these transactions but have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. These PPA Entities contain debt that is non-recourse to us and own Energy Server assets for which we do not have title.

13. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
Purchase Commitments with Suppliers and Contract Manufacturers - As of June 30, 2022, we had a commitment with NetJets to purchase a fractional interest in one of its jets, which is to be used for corporate travel purposes, in the amount of approximately $3.4 million. The jet is expected to be completed by July of 2023. As of December 31, 2021, we had no material open purchase orders with our component suppliers and third-party manufacturers that are not cancellable.
Portfolio Financings Performance Guarantees - We guarantee the performance of Energy Servers at certain levels of output and efficiency to customers over the contractual term. We paid $0.7 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Letters of Credit - In 2019, pursuant to the PPA II upgrade of Energy Servers, we agreed to indemnify our financing partner for losses that may be incurred in the event of certain regulatory, legal or legislative development and established a cash-collateralized letter of credit facility for this purpose. There were no letters of credit or pledged funds associated with the PPA IIIa Upgrade. As of June 30, 2022, the balance of this cash-collateralized letter of credit was $84.0 million, of which $41.1 million and $42.9 million is recognized as short-term and long-term restricted cash, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of this cash-collateralized letter of credit was $99.4 million, of which $41.7 million and $57.7 million is recognized as short-term and long-term restricted cash, respectively.
Pledged Funds - In 2019, pursuant to the PPA IIIb refinancing and energy servers upgrade program, we pledged $20.0 million for a seven-year period to secure our operations and maintenance obligations with respect to the totality of our obligations to the financier. We categorized the $20.0 million as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. It was agreed all or a portion of such funds would be released if we meet certain credit rating and/or market capitalization milestones prior to the end of the pledge period. If we do not meet the required criteria within the first five-year period, the funds would still be released to us over the following two years as long as the energy servers continue to perform in compliance with our warranty obligations. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the balance of the long-term restricted cash was $6.7 million and $6.7 million.
Contingencies
Indemnification Agreements - We enter into standard indemnification agreements with our customers and certain other business partners in the ordinary course of business. Our exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves future claims that may be made against us but have not yet been made. To date, we have not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to our indemnification obligations. However, we may record charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.
Delaware Economic Development Authority - In March 2012, we entered into an agreement with the Delaware Economic Development Authority to provide a grant of $16.5 million to us as an incentive to establish a new manufacturing facility in Delaware and to provide employment for full time workers at the facility over a certain period of time. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we have recorded $9.5 million and $9.5 million and in other long-term liabilities, respectively, for potential future repayments of this grant.
Investment Tax Credits - For information on ITCs, see Part II, Item 8, Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Legal Matters - We are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We review all legal matters at least quarterly and assess whether an accrual for loss contingencies needs to be recorded. We record an accrual for loss contingencies when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal matters are subject to uncertainties and are inherently unpredictable, so the actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our estimates. If an unfavorable resolution were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs or on future periods.
In July 2018, two former executives of Advanced Equities, Inc., Keith Daubenspeck and Dwight Badger, filed a statement of claim with the American Arbitration Association in Santa Clara, CA, against us, Kleiner Perkins, Caufield & Byers, LLC (“KPCB”), New Enterprise Associates, LLC (“NEA”) and affiliated entities of both KPCB and NEA seeking to compel arbitration and alleging a breach of a confidential agreement executed between the parties on June 27, 2014 (the “Confidential Agreement”). On May 7, 2019, KPCB and NEA were dismissed with prejudice. On June 15, 2019, a second amended statement of claim was filed against us alleging securities fraud, fraudulent inducement, a breach of the Confidential Agreement, and violation of the California unfair competition law. On July 16, 2019, we filed our answering statement and affirmative defenses. On September 27, 2019, we filed a motion to dismiss the statement of claim. On March 24, 2020, the Tribunal denied our motion to dismiss in part, and ordered that claimant’s relief is limited to rescission of the Confidential Agreement or remedies consistent with rescission, and not expectation damages. On September 14, 2020, the Tribunal issued an interim order dismissing the claimant’s remaining claims and requesting further briefing on the issue of prevailing party. On November 10, 2020, the Tribunal issued an order declaring us the prevailing party and requesting a motion for award of attorney’s fees. On March 17, 2021, we received the final award for attorneys fees and costs. On March 26, 2021, we filed a petition in the Northern District of California to confirm the award. Messrs. Badger and Daubenspeck have taken the position that the award should be vacated, including on the ground that one of the arbitrators made insufficient disclosures or was biased against them. The Northern District of California rejected the arguments made by Messrs. Badger and Daubenspeck and on September 8, 2021, issued an order granting our petition to confirm the award, and entered judgment in our favor for the attorneys fees and costs awarded by the Tribunal. On October 1, 2021, Mr. Badger and Mr. Daubenspeck filed a notice of appeal with the United States Court of Appeal for the Ninth Circuit. On July 25, 2022, the parties filed a stipulated motion to voluntarily dismiss the appeal with prejudice pursuant to a confidential settlement agreement entered into by the parties on June 24, 2022. On July 29, 2022, the United States Court of Appeal for the Ninth Circuit dismissed the appearl pursuant to the stipulation of the parties.
In June 2019, Messrs. Daubenspeck and Badger filed a complaint against our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and our former Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois asserting nearly identical claims as those in the pending arbitration discussed above. The lawsuit was stayed pending the outcome of the arbitration. The stay was lifted on October 20, 2020. On March 19, 2021, we filed a motion to dismiss the case on several grounds. On May 3, 2021, plaintiffs filed a motion to stay the lawsuit pending the outcome of the petition to confirm the arbitration award in the Northern District of California. On July 25, 2022, the parties filed a stipulated motion to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice pursuant to a confidential settlement agreement entered by the parties on June 24, 2022. On July 26, 2022, the court dismissed the action with prejudice.
In March 2019, the Lincolnshire Police Pension Fund filed a class action complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, against us, certain members of our senior management, certain of our directors and the underwriters in our July 25, 2018 IPO alleging violations under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for alleged misleading statements or omissions in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in connection with the IPO. Two related class action cases were subsequently filed in the Santa Clara County Superior Court against the same defendants containing the same allegations; Rodriquez vs Bloom Energy et al. was filed on April 22, 2019 and Evans vs Bloom Energy et al. was filed on May 7, 2019. These cases have been consolidated. Plaintiffs' consolidated amended complaint was filed with the court on September 12, 2019. On October 4, 2019, defendants moved to stay the lawsuit pending the federal district court action discussed below. On December 7, 2019, the Superior Court issued an order staying the action through resolution of the parallel federal litigation mentioned below. We believe the complaint to be without merit and we intend to defend this action vigorously. We are unable to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.
In May 2019, Elissa Roberts filed a class action complaint in the federal district court for the Northern District of California against us, certain members of our senior management team, and certain of our directors alleging violations under Section 11 and 15 of the Securities Act for alleged misleading statements or omissions in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in connection with the IPO. On September 3, 2019, the court appointed a lead plaintiff and lead plaintiffs’ counsel. On November 4, 2019, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint adding the underwriters in the IPO and our auditor as defendants for the Section 11 claim, as well as adding claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act" ) against us, and certain members of our senior management team. The amended complaint alleged a class period for all claims from the time of our IPO until September 16, 2019. On April 21, 2020, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint, which continued to make the same claims and added allegations pertaining to the restatement and, as to claims under the Exchange Act, extended the putative class period through February 12, 2020. On July 1, 2020, we and the other defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. On September 29, 2021, the court entered an order dismissing with leave to amend (1) five of seven statements or groups of statements alleged to violate Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act and (2) all allegations under the Exchange Act. All allegations against our auditors were also dismissed. Plaintiffs elected not to amend the complaint and instead on October 22, 2021 filed a motion for entry of final judgment in favor of our auditors so that plaintiffs could appeal the dismissal of those claims. The court denied that motion on December 1, 2021 and in response plaintiffs have filed a motion asking the court to certify an interlocutory appeal as to the accounting claims. The court denied plaintiff’s motion on April 14, 2022. Separately, the claims for violation of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act that were not dismissed by the court are proceeding to discovery. A case schedule has been set, with a trial scheduled for December 2023. We believe the claims to be without merit and we intend to defend this action vigorously. We are unable to predict the outcome of this litigation at this time and accordingly are not able to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.
In September 2019, we received a books and records demand from purported stockholder Dennis Jacob (“Jacob Demand”). The Jacob Demand cites allegations from the September 17, 2019 report prepared by admitted short seller Hindenburg Research. In November 2019, we received a substantially similar books and records demand from the same law firm on behalf of purported stockholder Michael Bolouri (“Bolouri Demand” and, together with the Jacob Demand, the “Demands”). On January 13, 2020, Messrs. Jacob and Bolouri filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery to enforce the Demands in the matter styled Jacob, et al. v. Bloom Energy Corp., C.A. No. 2020-0023-JRS. On March 9, 2020, Messrs. Jacob and Bolouri filed an amended complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery to add allegations regarding the restatement. The court held a one-day trial on December 7, 2020. On February 25, 2021, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a decision rejecting the Bolouri Demand but granting in part the Jacob Demand allowing limited access to certain books and records pertaining to the allegations made in the Hindenburg Research Report. On March 29, 2021, the Court of Chancery entered a Final Order and Judgment regarding the required production of documents. On April 28, 2021, we produced documents to Mr. Jacob responsive to the Final Order and Judgment. We are unable to estimate any range of reasonably possible losses.
In March 2020, Francisco Sanchez filed a class action complaint in Santa Clara County Superior Court against us alleging certain wage and hour violations under the California Labor Code and Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Orders and that we engaged in unfair business practices under the California Business and Professions Code, and in July 2020 he amended his complaint to add claims under the California Labor Code Private Attorneys General Act ("PAGA"). On November 30, 2020, we filed a motion to compel arbitration and the motion was to be heard on March 5, 2021. On February 24, 2021, Mr. Sanchez dismissed the individual and class action claims without prejudice, leaving one cause of action for enforcement of the Private Attorney Generals Act. In April 2021, an amended complaint reflecting these changes was filed with the Santa Clara Superior Court. The parties attended a mediation on January 10, 2022, and agreed in principle to resolve the PAGA and individual claims for approximately $1.0 million. The parties executed a written agreement in late May 2022. The agreement was approved by the Court in compliance with PAGA on July 1, 2022.
In June 2021, we filed a petition for writ of mandate and a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief in the Santa Clara Superior Court against the City of Santa Clara for failure to issue building permits for two of our customer installations and asking the court to require the City of Santa Clara to process and issue the building permits. In October 2021, we filed an amended petition and complaint that asserts additional constitutional and tort claims based on the City’s failure to timely issue the Energy Server permits. Discovery has commenced and we are aggressively pursuing all claims. On February 4, 2022, the City of Santa Clara filed a Demurrer seeking to dismiss all of the Company’s claims. The trial judge rejected the Demurrer on all claims except one, and allowed Bloom leave to amend that claim. The second amended petition was filed on July 1, 2022. The next Status Conference with the judge is scheduled for September 1, 2022. If we are unable to secure building permits for these customer installations in a timely fashion, our customers will terminate their contracts with us and select another energy provider. In addition, if we are no longer able to install our Energy Servers in Santa Clara under building permits, we may not be able to secure future customer bookings for installation in the City of Santa Clara.
In February 2022, Plansee SE/Global Tungsten & Powders Corp. ("Plansee/GTP"), a former supplier, filed a request for expedited arbitration with the World Intellectual Property Organization Arbitration and Mediation Center in Geneva Switzerland, for various claims allegedly in relation to an Intellectual Property and Confidential Disclosure Agreement between Plansee/GTP and Bloom Energy Corporation. Plansee/GTP’s statement of claims includes allegations of infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,802,328, 8,753,785 and 9,434,003. On April 3, 2022, we filed a complaint against Plansee/GTP in the Eastern District of Texas to address the dispute between Plansee/GTP and Bloom Energy Corporation in a proper forum before a U.S. Federal District Court. Our complaint seeks the correction of inventorship of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,802,328, 8,753,785 and 9,434,003 (the “Patents-in-Suit”); declaratory judgment of invalidity, unenforceability, and non-infringement of the Patents-in-Suit; and declaratory judgment of no misappropriation. Further, our complaint seeks to recover damages hawse have suffered in relation to Plansee/GTP’s business dealings that, as alleged, constitute acts of unfair competition, tortious interference contract, breach of contract, violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act and violations of the Clayton Antitrust Act. On June 9, 2022, Plansee/GTP filed a motion to dismiss the complaint and compel arbitration (or alternatively to stay). We filed our opposition on June 30, 2022, Plansee/GTP’s filed its reply on July 14, 2022 and we filed our sur-reply on July 22, 2022. Given that the cases are still in their early stages, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the arbitration and district court action at this time, and accordingly are not able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses.
14. Income Taxes
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded an income tax benefit and income tax provision of $12 thousand and $0.6 million, respectively, on pre-tax losses of $121.2 million and $203.4 million for effective tax rates of 0.01% and (0.3)%, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded income tax provisions of $0.3 million and $0.4 million on pre-tax losses of $58.1 million and $87.8 million for effective tax rates of (0.5)% and (0.5)%, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is lower than the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to a full valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets.

Overview
Description of Bloom Energy
Our mission is to make clean, reliable energy affordable for everyone in the world. We created the first large-scale, commercially viable solid oxide fuel-cell based power generation platform that empowers businesses, essential services, critical infrastructure and communities to responsibly take charge of their energy.
Our technology, invented in the United States, is one of the most advanced electricity and hydrogen producing technologies on the market today. Our fuel-flexible Bloom Energy Servers can use biogas, hydrogen, natural gas, or a blend of fuels to create resilient, sustainable and cost-predictable power at significantly higher efficiencies than traditional, combustion-based resources. In addition, our same solid oxide platform that powers our fuel cells can be used to create hydrogen, which is increasingly recognized as a critically important tool necessary for the full decarbonization of the energy economy. Our enterprise customers include some of the largest multinational corporations in the world. We also have strong relationships with some of the largest utility companies in the United States and the Republic of Korea.
At Bloom Energy, we look forward to a net-zero future. Our technology is designed to help enable this future in order to deliver reliable, low-carbon, electricity in a world facing unacceptable levels of power disruptions. Our resilient platform has kept electricity available for our customers through hurricanes, earthquakes, typhoons, forest fires, extreme heat and grid failures. Unlike traditional combustion power generation, our platform is community-friendly and designed to significantly reduce emissions of criteria air pollutants. We have made tremendous progress making renewable fuel production a reality through our biogas, hydrogen and electrolyzer programs, and we believe that we are well-positioned as a core platform and fixture in the new energy paradigm to help organizations and communities achieve their net-zero objectives.
We market and sell our Energy Servers directly and through indirect channels to our customers both in the United states and abroad. In order to appeal to the largest variety of customers, we have developed a number of financing options to enable customers' use of our Energy Servers on a pay-as-you-go model, made available through third-party ownership financing arrangements. For information about our different financing options, see Part II Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Purchase and Financing Options in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Our typical target commercial or industrial customer has historically been either an investment-grade entity or a customer with investment-grade attributes such as size, assets and revenue, liquidity, geographically diverse operations and general financial stability. We have also expanded our product and financing options to the below-investment-grade customer
30


and have also expanded internationally to target customers with deployments on a wholesale grid. Given that our customers are typically large institutions with multi-level decision making processes, we generally experience a lengthy sales process.
Strategic Investment
On October 23, 2021, we entered into the SPA with SK ecoplant in connection with a strategic partnership. Pursuant to the SPA, on December 29, 2021, we sold to SK ecoplant 10 million shares of zero coupon, non-voting redeemable convertible Series A preferred stock in us, par value $0.0001 per share ("RCPS"), at a purchase price of $25.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $255 million (the "Initial Investment").
Simultaneous with the execution of the SPA, we and SK ecoplant executed an amendment to the Joint Venture Agreement ("JVA"), an amendment and restatement to our Preferred Distribution Agreement ("PDA Restatement") and a new Commercial Cooperation Agreement regarding initiatives pertaining to the hydrogen market and general market expansion for the Bloom Energy Server and Bloom Energy Electrolyzer.
Certain Factors Affecting our Performance
Manufacturing and Labor Market Constraints
We are experiencing impacts from the ongoing labor shortage and continue to face challenges in hiring for our manufacturing facilities, which is exacerbated by absences for any employees who are recovering from or have been exposed to COVID-19. While we continue to dedicate resources to supporting our capacity expansion efforts, we are experiencing difficulties with hiring and retention, particularly for our new manufacturing facility in Fremont, California. In addition, the current inflationary environment has led to rising wages and labor rates and increased competition for labor. To date, we have been able to mitigate any impact to production through a contingent workforce and other measures. In the event we are unable to mitigate the impacts of these challenges, it could delay the manufacturing and installation of our Energy Servers and we may be unable to meet customer demand, which would adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations, including revenue and gross margin. We expect the hiring and retention challenges arising from the labor shortages to continue for the foreseeable future.
Supply Chain Constraints
We continue to see effects from the global supply chain disruptions and are experiencing supply chain challenges and logistics constraints. While we have not experienced any component shortages to date, we are facing pressures from longer lead times, shipping and freight delays, and increased costs of raw materials. In addition, the current inflationary environment and conflict in Ukraine has led to an increase in the price of components and raw materials. In the event we are unable to mitigate the impacts of delays and/or price increases in raw materials, components and freight, it could delay the manufacturing and installation of our Energy Servers and increase the cost of our Energy Server, which would adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations, including revenue and gross margin. We expect these supply chain challenges and logistics constraints to continue for the foreseeable future.
For additional information on our manufacturing and supply chain matters, see Part I Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
COVID-19 Pandemic
We continue to monitor and adjust as appropriate our operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We maintain protocols to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission within our facilities, including enhanced cleaning and masking if required by the local authorities, as well as providing testing for all employees. We will continue to follow CDC and local guidelines when notified of possible exposures. The full extent of the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business remains uncertain due to a variety of factors, including for example, the duration and severity of the pandemic, new variants of the virus, the distribution, effectiveness and public acceptance of vaccines, and any other ongoing and future actions taken to in response to the pandemic. For more information regarding the risks posed to our company by the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Products and Manufacturing – Our business has been and continues to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Our Energy Server Product runs on a variety of fuels, including natural gas. The rising cost of natural gas increases the cost of our product to the end customer. To date, the potential impact of this on customer demand has been offset by the customer needs for resiliency and time to power that our Energy Server provides.
31


Liquidity and Capital Resources
While we improved our liquidity in 2021, we increased our working capital spend in the first half of 2022. We have entered into new leases to maintain sufficient manufacturing facilities to meet anticipated demand in 2022 and beyond, including new product line expansion. In addition, we also increased our working capital spend and resources to enhance our marketing efforts and to expand into new geographies both domestically and internationally.
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $235.6 million. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, including money market funds. We maintain these balances with high credit quality counterparties, continually monitor the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer and diversify our investments in order to minimize our credit risk.
As of June 30, 2022, we had $291.0 million of total outstanding recourse debt, $198.3 million of non-recourse debt and $18.6 million of other long-term liabilities. For a complete description of our outstanding debt, please see Note 7 - Outstanding Loans and Security Agreements in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements (unaudited).
The combination of our existing cash and cash equivalents is expected to be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash flow needs for at least the next 12 months. If these sources of cash are insufficient to satisfy our near-term or future cash needs, we may require additional capital from equity or debt financings to fund our operations, in particular, our manufacturing capacity, product development and market expansion requirements, to timely respond to competitive market pressures or strategic opportunities, or otherwise. We may, from time to time, engage in a variety of financing transactions for such purposes, including factoring our accounts receivable. We may not be able to secure timely additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any additional financings may place limits on our financial and operating flexibility. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or equity-linked securities, our existing stockholders could suffer dilution in their percentage ownership of us, and any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development efforts and other business initiatives, the rate of growth in the volume of system builds and the need for additional manufacturing space, the expansion of sales and marketing activities both in domestic and international markets, market acceptance of our products, our ability to secure financing for customer use of our Energy Servers, the timing of installations, and overall economic conditions including the impact of COVID-19 on our ongoing and future operations. In order to support and achieve our future growth plans, we may need or seek advantageously to obtain additional funding through an equity or debt financing. Failure to obtain this financing or financing in future quarters may affect our results of operations, including revenue and cash flows.
As of June 30, 2022, the current portion of our total debt is $27.2 million, of which $14.7 million is outstanding non-recourse debt.

Net cash provided by (used in) PPA financing activities (99,297)(13,462)
1 The PPA Entities' operating and financing cash flows are a subset of our consolidated cash flows and represent the stand-alone cash flows prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Operating activities consist principally of cash used to run the operations of the PPA Entities, the purchase of Energy Servers from us and principal reductions in loan balances. Financing activities consist primarily of changes in debt carried by our PPAs, and payments from and distributions to noncontrolling partnership interests. We believe this presentation of net cash provided by (used in) PPA activities is useful to provide the reader with the impact to consolidated cash flows of the PPA Entities in which we have only a minority interest.
Operating Activities
Our operating activities have consisted of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items plus changes in our operating assets and liabilities or working capital. The increase in cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period was primarily the result of an increase in our net loss and a decrease in our net working capital of $47.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to the timing of revenue transactions and corresponding collections, the increase in inventory levels to support future demand, and the timing of payments to vendors.
Investing Activities
Our investing activities have consisted of capital expenditures that include investment to increase our production capacity. We expect to continue such activities as our business grows. Cash used in investing activities of $44.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily the result of expenditures on tenant improvements for a newly leased engineering building in Fremont, California. We expect to continue to make capital expenditures over the next few quarters to prepare our new manufacturing facility in Fremont, California for production, which includes the purchase of new equipment and other tenant improvements. We intend to fund these capital expenditures from cash on hand as well as cash flow to be generated from operations. We may also evaluate and arrange equipment lease financing to fund these capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Historically, our financing activities have consisted of borrowings and repayments of debt, proceeds and repayments of financing obligations, distributions paid to noncontrolling interests, and the proceeds from the issuance of our common stock. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $56.9 million, an increase of $110.8 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the repayment of debt related to PPA IIIa of $30.2 million and other debt of 10.7 million, and repayment of financing obligations of $16.5 million, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of common stock of $6.0 million.
We believe we have the sufficient capital to run our business over the next 12 months, including the completion of the build out of our manufacturing facilities. Our working capital was strengthened with the initial investment by SK ecoplant. In addition, we may still enter the equity or debt market as needed to support the expansion of our business. Please refer to Note 7 - Outstanding Loans and Security Agreements in Part 1, Item 1, Financial Statements (unaudited); and Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors - Risks Related to Our Liquidity - Our substantial indebtedness, and restrictions imposed by the agreements governing our and our PPA Entities' outstanding indebtedness, may limit our financial and operating activities and may adversely affect our ability to incur additional debt to fund future needs, and We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to meet our debt service obligations, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for more information regarding the terms of and risks associated with our debt.
Purchase and Financing Options

International Channel Partners
There were no significant changes in our international channel partners during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. For information on international channel partners, see the International Channel Partners section in Part I, Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Community Distributed Generation Programs
We have entered into sales, installation, operations and maintenance agreements with three developers for the deployment of our Energy Servers pursuant to the New York CDG program for a total of 441 systems. As of June 30, 2022, we have recognized revenue associated with 271 systems. We continue to believe that these types of subscriber-based programs could be a source of future revenue and will continue to look to generate sales through these programs in the future.
For further information on Community Distributed Generation Programs, see the Community Distributed Generation Programs section in Part I, Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Installation costs on product accepted in the period$355/kW$844/kW$-489/kW(57.9)%$349/kW$520/kW$-171/kW(32.9)%
Product costs of product accepted increased approximately $93 per kilowatt, or 3.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in cost is primarily driven by some of the cost pressures seen in the external environment with commodity pricing and logistics increasing significantly from one year ago. Our ongoing cost reduction efforts to reduce material costs, labor and overhead through improved automation of our manufacturing facilities, our better facility utilization and our ongoing material cost reduction programs with our vendors continued but were offset by the temporary increases in cost that we experienced.

Period costs of manufacturing related expenses increased approximately $7.0 million, or 109.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Our period costs of manufacturing related expenses increased primarily as a result of costs incurred to support capacity expansion efforts which will be brought online in future periods.
Period costs of manufacturing related expenses increased approximately $11.3 million, or 95.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. Our period costs of manufacturing related expenses increased primarily as a result of costs incurred to support capacity expansion efforts which will be brought online in future periods.
Installation costs on product accepted decreased approximately $489 per kilowatt, or 57.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease in cost is primarily driven by the change in the mix of sites requiring Bloom installation and changes in installation process. Each customer site is different and installation costs can vary due to a number of factors, including site complexity, size, location of gas, etc. As such, installation on a per kilowatt basis can vary significantly from period-to-period. In addition, some customers do their own installation for which we have little to no installation cost.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We include in our condensed consolidated financial statements all assets and liabilities and results of operations of our PPA Entities that we have entered into and over which we have substantial control. For additional information, see Part II, Item 8, Note 11 - Portfolio Financings in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
We have not entered into any other transactions that have generated relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships or special purpose entities. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022 and 2021 we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. Our discussion and analysis of our financial results under Results of Operations above are based on our audited results of operations, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and net income. On an ongoing basis, we base our estimates on historical experience, as appropriate, and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the accounting estimates are representative of estimation uncertainty, and are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity than our other accounting policies. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating the consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
The accounting policies that most frequently require us to make assumptions, judgments and estimates, and therefore are critical to understanding our results of operations, include:
Discussion of Earliest Year of Changes in Financial Condition and Results of Operations;
Revenue Recognition;
Leases: Incremental Borrowing Rate;
Valuation of Escalator Protection Plan Agreements ("EPP");
Valuation of Certain Financial Instruments and Customer Financing Receivables;
Valuation of Assets and Liabilities of the SK ecoplant Strategic Investment;
Incremental Borrowing Rate ("IBR") by Lease Class;
Stock-Based Compensation;
Income Taxes;
Principles of Consolidation; and
Allocation of Profits and Losses of Consolidated Entities to Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 provides a more complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk during six months ended June 30, 2022.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15
under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As of June 30, 2022 based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures performed by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) it was concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

BLOOM ENERGY CORPORATION
Bloom Energy Corporation (the “Company”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify that:

2. This Certificate of Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Restated Certificate of Incorporation”) was duly authorized and adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL and amends provisions of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
3. The amendments to the existing Restated Certificate of Incorporation being effected hereby are to:
a) amend and restate in its entirety Section 1.1 of Article IV of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation to read as follows:
1.1. The total number of shares of all classes of stock that the Company has authority to issue is 1,220,000,000 shares, consisting of three classes: 600,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”), 600,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Class B Common Stock,” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”).”
b) amend and restate in its entirety Article XI of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation to read as follows:
1. Forum. Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by, or other wrongdoing by, any director, officer, or other employee or agent of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders; (c) any action asserting a claim against the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law, this Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company (as either may be amended from time to time); (d) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company; or (e) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any security of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this paragraph.




Subject to the foregoing paragraph, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any security of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this paragraph.
2. Enforceability.
