NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Operations

 

References in this Report to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Beam” means Beam Global, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries.

 

Beam is a sustainable technology innovation company headquartered in San Diego, California with offices in the U.S. in San Diego, California, Yuma, Arizona and Broadview, Illinois; in Europe in Belgrade and Kraljevo, Serbia; and in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates ("UAE"). We develop, design, engineer, manufacture, and sell high-quality, rapidly deployed and autonomous infrastructure products for electric and autonomous vehicle (“EV and AV”) charging, energy security and disaster preparedness and highly energy-dense battery solutions in safe, compact and unique and bespoke form-factors which we believe are ideal for the rapidly growing mobile and stationary equipment product market which often requires electrical energy without being connected to the electrical grid. Additionally, we manufacture structures with integrated intelligence and electronics such as street lighting, cell towers and energy infrastructure products for Smart Cities (the interconnected physical and digital elements within a city that utilize technology to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and quality of life for residents). We further design, engineer and manufacture specialized power electronics including inverters, charge controllers, power supplies and LED lighting. 

 

Our charging products are rapidly deployed without the need for construction or electrical work.  Our sustainable technology products are designed to replace an electrical installation process with an easy, robust and reliable product at a low cost of total ownership.

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly our results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and our financial position as of June 30, 2026, have been made. All amounts are presented in thousands if otherwise noted. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

 

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025. The December 31, 2025 balance sheet is derived from those statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the allowance for certain expected credit losses, valuation of inventory and standard cost allocations, depreciable lives of property and equipment, valuation of contingent consideration liability, valuation of intangible assets, estimates of loss contingencies, estimates of the valuation of lease liabilities and the related right of use assets, valuation of share-based costs, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently adopted pronouncements

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" (“ASU 2024-04”), which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. Adoption can be on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2026. The adoption had no impact on its consolidated financial statements. 

 

Recent pronouncement not yet adopted

 

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements” (“ASU 2023-06”), which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”). The ASU was issued in response to the SEC’s disclosure update and simplification initiative issued in August 2018. The effective date for the amendments for each topic will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoptions prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. 

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." This guidance requires additional disclosure of certain amounts included in the expense captions presented on the Statement of Operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270), Narrow-Scope Improvements, to provide clarity about the current requirements, rather than evaluate whether to expand or reduce interim disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 result in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 also include a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impact that ASU 2025-11 may have on its financial statement presentation and disclosures.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

 

 

Concentrations

 

Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable.

 

The Company maintains its cash in banks and financial institutions deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts from inception through June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $0.8 million of the Company’s cash deposits were greater than the federally insured limits.

 

Major Customers

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, two customers accounted for 13% and 11% of total revenues, respectively, and for the three months ended June 30, 2025, one customer accounted for 10% of total revenue. At June 30, 2026, three customers accounted for 13%, 13%, and 12%, respectively, of total accounts receivable and at December 31, 2025, one customer accounted for 27% of total accounts receivable. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s concentration of sales to federal, state and local governments represented 33% and 40% of revenues, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company does business and extends credit based on an evaluation of each customer’s financial condition, generally without requiring collateral. Management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables may become uncollectible. Management’s evaluation includes several factors including the aging of the accounts receivable balances, a review of significant past due accounts, dialogue with the customer, the financial profile of a customer, the Company’s historical write-off experience, net of recoveries, and economic conditions. Exposure to losses from receivables is expected to vary by customer due to the financial condition of each customer. The Company estimates future credit losses based on the age of customer receivable balances, collection history and forecasted economic trends. The Company monitors exposure to credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances. A summary of the allowance for credit losses at  June 30, 2026 and the year ended  December 31, 2025:

Fair Value Measurement

 

The Company follows the authoritative guidance that establishes a formal framework for measuring fair values of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements that are already required by generally accepted accounting principles to be measured at fair value. The guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The transaction is based on a hypothetical transaction in the principal or most advantageous market considered from the perspective of the market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability.

 

The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants who are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable. The Company attempts to utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

The Company is able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The guidance establishes a formal fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 measurements and the lowest priority to level 3 measurements, and accordingly, Level 1 measurement should be used whenever possible.

 

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or published net asset value for alternative investments with characteristics similar to a mutual fund.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

The methods used may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while Management believes its valuation methods are appropriate, the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a difference in fair value measurement at the reporting date. There were no changes in the Company’s valuation methodologies from the prior year.

 

For purpose of this disclosure, the carrying amounts for financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable – trade, other prepaid expenses and current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities, all approximate fair value due to their short-term nature as of June 30, 2026. The Company had no Level 3 liabilities as of June 30, 2026. There were no transfers between levels during the reporting period.

Significant Accounting Policies

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no changes to our significant accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for the period, and, if dilutive, potential common stock outstanding during the period. Potential common stock consists of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options, stock warrants, convertible debt instruments or other common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

The following outstanding shares of dilutive instruments as of  June 30, 2026 and 2025 were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share:

Total Shares

  1,075,600   839,904 

 

Segments

 

The Company assesses its segment reporting based on how it internally manages and reports the results of its business to its chief operating decision maker. Management reviews financial results, manages the business and allocates resources on an aggregate basis. Therefore, financial results are reported in a single operating segment.
