LIGHTING SCIENCE GROUP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Overview

Lighting Science Group Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware in 1988 and designs, develops, manufactures and markets general illumination products that exclusively use light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) as their light source. The Company’s product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) that can be used in existing light fixtures and sockets as well as purpose built LED-based luminaires (light fixtures), for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications. The Company assembles and manufactures products internally and through its contract manufacturers in Mexico, China and India.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in accordance with the disclosure requirements for the quarterly report on Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the results of the Company for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2013.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company’s actual results could differ from these estimates.

Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount when its products are shipped to customers or upon the completion of specific milestone billing requirements. The Company’s accounts receivable balance is recorded net of allowances for amounts not expected to be collected from customers. This allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on historical collection experience, age of receivables and known collectability issues. The Company writes off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent, based upon age or customer circumstances, that such amounts will not be collected. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis. Recovery of bad debt amounts previously written off is recorded as a reduction of bad debt expense in the period the payment is collected. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for its accounts receivable and does not regularly charge interest on past due amounts. As of both March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s accounts receivable were reflected net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1.2 million.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were $8.5 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of eligible accounts receivable pledged as collateral for the Company’s line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”).

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue when its products are shipped and title passes to customers. When sales of products are subject to certain customer acceptance terms, revenue from such sales is recognized once such terms have been met. The Company also provides its customers with limited rights of return for non-conforming shipments or product warranty claims.

The Company recognizes revenue on certain long-term, fixed price, custom lighting design projects using the percentage of completion method based on the ratio of costs incurred for each contract in a period to the estimated total costs to be incurred for each contract. Contract costs include all direct material, direct labor and other indirect costs related to contract performance. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

For smaller or shorter term custom lighting design projects or projects where estimated total costs cannot be determined, revenue is recognized using the completed contract method where recognition occurs upon substantial completion and acceptance by the customer of the project. Amounts received as deposits against future completion of completed contract method projects are recorded as unearned revenue until such projects are completed and title passes to the customer.

Fair Value Measurements

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due under lines of credit and other short term borrowings, accrued expenses and other current liabilities are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Riverwood Warrant, September 2012 Warrants and the Pegasus Commitment (each as defined in Note 8 below) were initially recorded at fair value and subsequently reflected at their fair value at the end of each reporting period.

NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As shown in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced significant net losses as well as negative cash flows from operations since its inception. The Company’s cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory, payment of salaries, employee benefits and other operating costs and purchases of production equipment and other capital investments. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from Wells Fargo and sales of common stock and preferred stock to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus Capital”), including Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”), LSGC Holdings, LLC (“LSGC Holdings”), LSGC Holdings II, LLC (“Holdings II”) and PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA Holdings”), which together with its affiliates, is the Company’s controlling stockholder. However, as detailed below, the Company’s most recent source of liquidity (the Series H and I Preferred Offering, defined in Note 8 below) was provided primarily by parties other than Pegasus Capital and its affiliates.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9.6 million and an additional $5.0 million in cash subject to restrictions pursuant to the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo (the “Wells Fargo ABL”). The Wells Fargo ABL provides the Company with a borrowing capacity of up to $50.0 million, which capacity is equal to the sum of (i) 85% of its eligible accounts receivable plus up to $7.5 million of eligible inventory, less certain reserves established against such accounts receivable and inventory by Wells Fargo from time to time pursuant to the Wells Fargo ABL, plus (ii) unrestricted cash held in a Wells Fargo deposit account (“Qualified Cash”), plus (iii) the amount of the Second Lien Letter of Credit Facility with Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares Capital”), pledged in favor of Wells Fargo (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”) for the benefit of the Company (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The Company is at all times required to maintain (i) a Borrowing Base that exceeds the amount of its outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo ABL by at least $5.0 million and (ii) $5.0 million in Qualified Cash. The Company would be required to comply with certain specified EBITDA requirements in the event that it has less than $2.0 million available for borrowing under the Wells Fargo ABL.

On March 31, 2013, the Company entered into Amendment No. 6 (“Amendment No. 6”) to the Wells Fargo ABL, which among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of the Wells Fargo ABL to April 2, 2014, and (ii) reduced the maximum credit available under the Wells Fargo ABL by $2.5 million (from $50.0 million to $47.5 million) on November 22, 2013 if (x) the Company’s consolidated earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the nine month period ending on September 30, 2013 is greater than $(20.2 million) and (y) excess availability under the Wells Fargo ABL on November 22, 2013 is less than $10.0 million. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $10.5 million of outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $37.3 million.

The Company believes that it will have sufficient capital to fund its operations for the next 12 months based on its current business plan and assumptions of future results. In future periods, if the Company does not adequately execute upon its business plan or its assumptions or forecasts do not prove to be accurate, the Company could exhaust its available capital resources, which could require the Company to seek to raise additional capital and/ or further reduce its expenditures of cash. The Company’s sources of liquidity may not be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to the Company.

NOTE 6. LINES OF CREDIT

Wells Fargo

The Wells Fargo ABL provides the Company with borrowing capacity of up to $50.0 million, which capacity is equal to the sum of (i) 85% of its eligible accounts receivable plus $7.5 million of eligible inventory less certain allowances established against such accounts receivable and inventory by Wells Fargo from time to time pursuant to the Wells Fargo ABL, plus (ii) Qualified Cash, plus (iii) the amount of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $10.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, outstanding under the Wells Fargo ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $37.3 million and $48.5 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2013, eligible collateral included $8.5 million of accounts receivable, $14.7 million of inventory and $10.0 million of Qualified Cash. Borrowings under the Wells Fargo ABL bear interest at one of the following two rates (at the Company’s election): (a) the sum of (1) the greater of: (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (y) the daily three month LIBOR rate plus 1.0% and (z) Wells Fargo’s prime rate; and (2) 0.75%, 1.25% or 1.75%, as applicable, depending on the amount available for borrowing under the facility and subject to any reserves established by Wells Fargo in accordance with the terms of the Wells Fargo ABL; or (b) the sum of the daily three month LIBOR rate plus 3.0%, 3.5% or 4.0%, as applicable, depending on the amount available for borrowing under the facility and subject to any reserves established by Wells Fargo in accordance with the terms of the facility. The interest rate on the Wells Fargo ABL was 3.28% as of March 31, 2013.

The Company is required to pay certain fees, including an unused line fee ranging from 0.375% to 1.0% of the unused portion of the Wells Fargo ABL. Outstanding loans may be prepaid without penalty or premium, except that the Company is required to pay a termination fee ranging from $250,000 to $500,000 (depending on the date of termination) if the facility is terminated by the Company prior to the scheduled maturity date of April 2 , 2014 or by Wells Fargo during a default period.

The Wells Fargo ABL contains financial covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or guaranty indebtedness of others, create liens on the Company’s assets, enter into mergers or consolidations, dispose of assets, prepay indebtedness, make changes to the Company’s governing documents and certain agreements, pay dividends or make other distributions on the Company’s capital stock, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make investments, including acquisitions and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. The Company is at all times required to maintain (i) a Borrowing Base that exceeds the amount of its outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo ABL by at least $5.0 million and (ii) $5.0 million of Qualified Cash. The Company would be required to comply with certain specified EBITDA requirements in the event that it has less than $2.0 million available for borrowing on the Wells Fargo ABL. The Wells Fargo ABL also contains customary events of default and affirmative covenants, a subjective acceleration clause, a lockbox requirement and cross default provisions.

On March 31, 2013, the Company entered into Amendment No. 6 to the Wells Fargo ABL, which among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of the Wells Fargo ABL to April 2, 2014, and (ii) reduced the maximum credit available under the Wells Fargo ABL by $2.5 million (from $50.0 million to $47.5 million) on November 22, 2013 if (x) the Company’s consolidated earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the nine month period ending on September 30, 2013 is greater than $(20.2 million) and (y) excess availability under the Wells Fargo ABL on November 22, 2013 is less than $10.0 million.

Pursuant to Amendment No. 6, Wells Fargo also waived certain events of defaults under the Wells Fargo ABL related to the Company’s creation of Lighting Science India Private Limited (“LSIPL”), its new subsidiary in India. The Company also agreed to pledge 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of LSIPL as collateral supporting the Wells Fargo ABL. Further, Amendment No. 6 permits the Company to make additional advances to certain affiliates (including LSIPL) in an amount not to exceed $500,000 from the date of Amendment No. 6 through October 1, 2013, and in an amount not to exceed $250,000 thereafter.

Ares Capital

On September 21, 2011, the Company entered into the Ares Letter of Credit Facility, a $25.0 million standby letter of credit issued by Ares Capital in favor of Wells Fargo for the benefit of the Company. As a condition to Ares Capital’s agreement to provide the Ares Letter of Credit Facility for the benefit of the Company, the Company entered into the Second Lien Letter of Credit, Loan and Security Agreement (the “Ares Loan Agreement”) with Ares Capital. In accordance with the

Table of Contents

Ares Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse Ares Capital for any amounts drawn on the Ares Letter of Credit Facility and to permanently reduce the face amount of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility by such amount. Further, the Company agreed that any such reimbursement obligation would automatically convert into a term loan (an “Ares Term Loan”) by Ares Capital to the Company secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Ares Letter of Credit Facility may only be used to collateralize borrowings pursuant to the Wells Fargo ABL.

Interest on any Ares Term Loan accrues at either (at the Company’s election): (a) 9.0% per annum plus the greater of (i) The Wall Street Journal prime rate, (ii) the sum of 0.50% per annum and the federal funds rate and (iii) the sum of 1.0% per annum and the higher of the daily one month LIBOR rate and 1.5% per annum; or (b) 10.0% per annum plus the greater of (i) 1.5% per annum and (ii) the daily one-month LIBOR rate. The Company is required to pay certain fees to Ares Capital under the Ares Loan Agreement including: (a) an annual administrative fee of $50,000, payable quarterly in advance; (b) a quarterly fronting fee equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility multiplied by 0.75% per annum; and (c) a quarterly letter of credit fee equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility multiplied by 10.0% per annum.

On April 1, 2013, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility (the “Ares Amendment”), which extends the maturity date of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility to April 2, 2014. Pursuant to the Ares Amendment, Ares Capital also waived certain events of defaults under the Ares Letter of Credit Facility related to our creation of LSIPL. We also agreed to pledge 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of LSIPL as collateral supporting the Ares Letter of Credit Facility.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) defines fair value as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to a fair valuation of these assets and liabilities and are based on (i) unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date (Level 1); (ii) quoted prices in non-active markets or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (Level 2); and (iii) prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement (Level 3).

The Company has recorded the Riverwood Warrant, the September 2012 Warrants and the Pegasus Commitment (each as defined in Note 8 below) at their fair values using the Monte Carlo valuation method and they are valued on a recurring basis at the end of each reporting period.

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2013, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values:

NOTE 8. SERIES H AND SERIES I REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

Series H and I Preferred Stock

On May 25, 2012, the Company entered into a preferred stock subscription agreement (the “Series H and I Subscription Agreement”) with RW LSG Holdings LLC, (“Riverwood Holdings”), an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC (“Riverwood Management”) and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (“Riverwood Capital,” and together with Riverwood Holdings, Riverwood Management and their affiliates, “Riverwood”), and certain other purchasers, pursuant to which the Company issued 60,705 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) and 6,364 shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series I Preferred Stock” and together with the Series H Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Shares”) at a price of $1,000 per Preferred Share (the “Series H and I Preferred Offering”), for gross proceeds of $67.1 million. In conjunction with the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company entered into a Support Services Agreement (the “Riverwood Support Services Agreement”) with Riverwood Holdings and Riverwood Management. As compensation for Riverwood’s provision of certain financial and structural analysis, due diligence investigations, corporate strategy and other advice and negotiation assistance to the Company in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company issued a warrant to Riverwood Management (the “Riverwood Warrant”) representing the right to purchase 18,092,511 shares of common stock at a variable exercise price.

On September 25, 2012, the Company also entered into a separate preferred stock subscription agreement (together, the “September 2012 Subscription Agreements”) with each of (i) Portman Limited (“Portman”) and (ii) Cleantech Europe II (A) LP (“Cleantech A”) and Cleantech Europe II (B) LP (“Cleantech B” and together with Cleantech A, “Zouk”), pursuant to which the Company issued 49,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the “September 2012 Preferred Offering”), for gross proceeds of $49.0 million. In conjunction with the September 2012 Preferred Offering, the Company also issued warrants to each of Portman, Cleantech A and Cleantech B to purchase 4,000,000, 3,406,041 and 593,959 shares of common stock, respectively (the “September 2012 Warrants”).

The Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of the same type as any dividends or other distribution of any kind payable or to be made on outstanding shares of common stock, on an as converted basis. Each Preferred Share is convertible at any time, at the election of the holder thereof, into the number of shares of common stock (the “Optional Conversion Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Stated Value of such Preferred Share by (b) the $1.18 conversion price, subject to certain adjustments.

In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the Preferred Shares are recorded as mezzanine equity because the Preferred Shares contain terms that allow the holder to redeem the shares for cash, and for which redemption is not solely within the control of the Company. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company will recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the Preferred Shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. There was no change in the redemption value as of March 31, 2013.

In connection with the issuance of the September 2012 Warrants, on September 25, 2012, the Company entered into a Commitment Agreement (the “September 2012 Commitment Agreement”) with Pegasus, pursuant to which the Company is obligated to buy from Pegasus IV or its affiliates shares of common stock equal to the number of shares, if any, for which the September 2012 Warrants are exercised, up to an aggregate number of shares of common stock equal to the aggregate number of shares of common stock underlying all of the September 2012 Warrants (the “Pegasus Commitment”). The purchase price for any shares of common stock purchased by the Company pursuant to the Pegasus Commitment will be equal to the consideration paid to the Company pursuant to the

 

10


Table of Contents

September 2012 Warrants. With respect to any September 2012 Warrants exercised on a cashless basis, the consideration to Pegasus IV in exchange for the number of shares of common stock issued to the exercising holder of September 2012 Warrants would be the reduction in the Pegasus Commitment equal to the reduction in the number of shares underlying the September 2012 Warrants.

Subject to certain limitations, Pegasus IV has the right to cancel its obligations to the Company pursuant to the September 2012 Commitment Agreement with respect to all or a portion of the Pegasus Commitment then outstanding (a “Pegasus Call”). Upon the exercise of a Pegasus Call, the Company will have the obligation to purchase that number of September 2012 Warrants equal to the Pegasus Commitment subject to the Pegasus Call for an amount equal to the consideration paid by Pegasus IV pursuant to such Pegasus Call.

Riverwood Warrant

The Riverwood Warrant was issued to Riverwood Management on May 25, 2012 in consideration for services provided in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering. The Riverwood Warrant represents the right to purchase 18,092,511 shares of common stock at an exercise price to be determined on the date of exercise. The exercise price will be equal to the difference obtained by subtracting (a) the fair market value for each share of common stock on the day immediately preceding the date of exercise from (b) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 5% of the amount by which the total equity value of the Company exceeds $500 million by (ii) the number of shares of common stock underlying the Riverwood Warrant. The Riverwood Warrant provides for certain anti-dilution adjustments and if unexercised, expires on May 25, 2022.

The Riverwood Warrant is considered a derivative financial instrument in accordance with ASC 815-10-15, “Derivatives and Hedging” due to the variable nature of the warrant exercise price. The Riverwood Warrant was recorded as a liability at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. The change in fair value of the Riverwood Warrant was $362,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and was included in the decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The change in fair value as of March 31, 2013 was due primarily to fluctuations in the price of the Company’s common stock.

September 2012 Warrants and September 2012 Commitment Agreement

The September 2012 Warrants are exercisable on or after the tenth business day following the third anniversary of the Issuance Date at an exercise price of $0.72 per share of common stock. If unexercised, the September 2012 Warrants expire upon the earlier of (i) a Change of Control of the Company (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designation) prior to the three-year anniversary of the Issuance Date; (ii) the occurrence of any event that results in holders of shares of Series H Preferred Stock having a right to require the Company to redeem the shares of Series H Preferred Stock prior to the three-year anniversary of the Issuance Date; (iii) consummation of a qualified public offering (“QPO”) (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designation) prior to the three-year anniversary of the Issuance Date or (iv) receipt by the Company of a Redemption Notice (as defined in the Subscription Agreements). The September 2012 Warrants also provide for certain anti-dilution adjustments.

The September 2012 Warrants are considered derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815-10-15, “Derivatives and Hedging” due to the cash settlement feature in the instrument. The September 2012 Warrants were recorded as liabilities at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. The change in fair value of the September 2012 Warrants was $160,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and was included in additional paid-in capital. The change in fair value as of March 31, 2013 was due primarily to fluctuations in the price of the Company’s common stock.

The Pegasus Commitment is classified as a financial instrument under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” due to the Company’s obligation to purchase its own shares in the event the September 2012 Warrants are exercised by the holders. The Pegasus Commitment was recorded as an asset at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. The change in fair value of the Pegasus Commitment was $160,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and was included in additional paid-in capital. The change in fair value of the Pegasus Commitment generally offsets the change in fair value of the September 2012 Warrants for the same period.

NOTE 9. SERIES G PREFERRED UNITS

Series G Preferred Units

On December 1, 2011, the Company entered into a Series G Preferred Unit Subscription Agreement (the “Series G Subscription Agreement”) with PCA Holdings, Pegasus IV, Holdings II, Leon Wagner, a member of the Company’s board of directors and certain accredited investors (together with Pegasus IV, PCA Holdings, Holdings II and any additional investors that may become party to the Series G Subscription Agreement, the “Series G Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Series G Subscription Agreement and subsequent subscription agreements on terms substantially similar to the Series G Subscription Agreement entered into between December 2011 and May 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 52,358 Series G Preferred Units at a price per Series G Preferred Unit of $1,000 for total consideration of $52.4 million. Holdings II purchased an aggregate of 14,958 Series G Preferred Units; PCA Holdings purchased an aggregate of 17,650 Series G Preferred Units; Leon Wagner purchased an aggregate of 6,500 Series G Preferred Units; and the additional accredited investors purchased an aggregate of 13,250 Series G Preferred Units.

In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the shares of Series G Preferred Stock were recorded initially at fair value as a liability as the Series G Preferred Stock may have required settlement in a variable number of shares of common stock. Subsequent to initial recognition, the shares of Series G Preferred Stock were recorded at the present value of the amount to be paid at settlement, accruing interest cost using the rate implicit at inception. The common stock was recorded to equity at fair value and was not subsequently revalued. The difference between the amount recorded at issuance and the original issuance price was being accreted using the effective interest method over the term of the Series G Preferred Stock. Accretion of Series G Preferred Stock was $676,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Pursuant to the Series G Subscription Agreement, if, at any time while shares of Series G Preferred Stock remained outstanding, the Company issued securities (other than pursuant to the Company’s equity-based compensation plans) that resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50.0 million (a “Series G Subsequent Transaction”), the Company was required to notify all holders of Series G Preferred Stock of the terms and conditions of such Series G Subsequent Transaction. Upon the consummation of the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company completed the required notification and, as described above, and pursuant to the Rollover Offering, all holders of Series G Preferred Stock converted their shares of Series G Preferred Stock into a number of shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock (at the holder’s election) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation value of the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock held by each holder by the stated value of $1,000 per share. Each holder retained all of the shares of common stock issued as part of the Series G Preferred Units. Upon this conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock, each share of Series G Preferred Stock was valued at its accrued value, which included the initial fair value plus any dividends accrued through the date of conversion.

Series G Preferred Stock Annual Cumulative Dividend

Each share of Series G Preferred Stock was entitled to an annual cumulative dividend of, (i) initially, 10.0%, (ii) commencing on November 17, 2012, 15.0%, and (iii) commencing on February 21, 2014, 18.0%, on the accrued value of such share. The dividend accrued daily and was scheduled to compound on (i) November 17, 2012 and, (ii) from and after November 17, 2012, December 31 and June 30 of each year.

The dividend was scheduled to accrue over the term of the Series G Preferred Stock on a weighted average rate based upon the applicable dividend rate over the term. On each dividend payment date subsequent to November 17, 2012, such dividend was required to be paid to each holder in cash semi-annually in arrears. The Company was only required to pay such dividend in cash to the extent that such payment would not result in an event of default under the Company’s (i) Wells Fargo ABL or (ii) Ares Loan Agreement. Any dividend that was scheduled to accrue on or after November 17, 2012, and was required to be paid in cash but was not actually paid in cash, was to continue to accrue and compound and be added to the accrued value of the Series G Preferred Stock.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded $1.0 million of dividends expense on the Series G Preferred Stock.

NOTE 10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded expenses of $0 and $241,000, respectively, related to restricted stock awards and $20,000 and $10,000, respectively, related to stock options issued to the Company’s directors.

On January 2, 2013, Jeremy S. M. Cage was appointed Chief Executive Officer and the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of restricted stock to Mr. Cage as part of his compensation package. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded a $21,000 expense related to the restricted stock award issued to Mr. Cage.

Warrants for the Purchase of Common Stock

On January 13, 2011, the Company issued a warrant (the “THD Warrant”) to The Home Depot, Inc. (“The Home Depot”) pursuant to which The Home Depot may purchase up to 5.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to certain vesting conditions. The THD Warrant was issued in connection with the Company’s Strategic Purchasing Agreement with The Home Depot, which it entered into on July 23, 2010 and pursuant to which it supplies The Home Depot with LED retrofit lamps and fixtures. The THD Warrant provided that 1.0 million shares of common stock would be eligible for vesting following each year ending December 31, 2011 through December 31, 2015, subject to The Home Depot having gross product orders from the Company, in dollar terms, that are at least 20% more than the gross product orders in the immediately preceding year. For the shares underlying the THD Warrant to be eligible for vesting following the years ending December 31, 2014 and 2015, The Home Depot would be required to extend the Strategic Purchasing Agreement for additional one-year periods beyond its initial term of three years. As of May 25, 2012, as a result of the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the exercise price of the THD Warrants adjusted, pursuant to the terms of such warrants, from $2.00 to $1.95 per share of common stock. The number of shares of common stock into which the THD Warrants were exercisable also adjusted, pursuant to the terms of the warrant, from 5,000,000 to 5,123,715 shares. Each vested portion of the THD Warrant will expire on the third anniversary following the vesting of such portion.

As of March 31, 2013, the following warrants for the purchase of common stock were outstanding:

As of March 31, 2013, all warrants shown in the table above were fully vested and exercisable, except those issued to The Home Depot and the September 2012 Warrants. The September 2012 Warrants will become exercisable on October 9, 2015. As discussed above, 2,049,486 shares issuable pursuant to the THD Warrant vested during 2012 and 2011, when the product purchases for these periods satisfied the prescribed vesting conditions.

The fair value of the THD Warrant is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method and will be adjusted at each reporting date until they have been earned for each year and these adjustments will be recorded as a reduction in the related revenue (sales incentive) from The Home Depot. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company determined that a portion of the THD Warrant was expected to vest during the period based on purchases made by The Home Depot during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and, accordingly, recorded reductions in revenue of $31,000 and $374,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE 11: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Upon issuance of the LSGC Letter Agreement on January 17, 2012, the Company determined that two classes of common stock had been established for financial reporting purposes only, with common stock attributable to controlling stockholders representing shares beneficially owned and controlled by Pegasus Capital and its affiliates and the common stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders representing the minority interest stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company computed net loss per share of noncontrolling stockholders and controlling stockholders common stock using the two-class method. Net loss from operations is initially allocated based on the underlying common shares held by controlling and noncontrolling stockholders. The allocation of the net losses attributable to the common stock attributable to controlling stockholders is then reduced by the amount of the deemed dividend related to the Repurchase Obligation, while the allocation of net losses attributable to the common stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders is increased by the amount of the deemed dividend related to the Repurchase Obligation (See Note 9 for further discussion).

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share except the number of shares is increased to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options, unvested restricted stock and contingently issuable shares using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred shares using the if-converted method, unless the effect of such increases would be anti-dilutive. The Company had 497,000 and 3.7 million common stock equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which were not included in the diluted net loss per common share as the common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive, as a result of being in a net loss position.

NOTE 14. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES

On September 24, 2012, the Company’s board of directors committed to transition all manufacturing previously conducted at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Mexico to Jabil Circuit, Inc., the Company’s contract manufacturer in Mexico, and to liquidate its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lighting Science Group Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. (the “Mexico Closing”). The Company expects that the Mexico Closing will be substantially completed by July 2013. The Mexico Closing will result in the termination of approximately 520 employees, of which all but 31 were terminated by March 31, 2013. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded $99,000 related to the termination of the lease on the Mexico manufacturing facility, which was included in restructuring expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

In addition to the charges noted above, the Company expects to incur certain other charges throughout the Mexico Closing. While the total estimate of these costs is not yet final, the Company currently expects to incur approximately $1.0 million in expenses with virtually all remaining costs incurred or accrued during the year ending December 31, 2013.

NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to the possibility of loss contingencies arising in its business and such contingencies are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies.” In determining loss contingencies, the Company considers the possibility of a loss as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recorded when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and when the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is routinely a defendant in or party to various pending and threatened legal claims and proceedings. The Company believes that any liability resulting from these various claims will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition; however, it is possible that extraordinary or unexpected legal fees could adversely impact our financial results during a particular period. During its ordinary course of business, the Company enters into obligations to defend, indemnify and/or hold harmless various customers, officers, directors, employees, and other third parties. These contractual obligations could give rise to additional litigation costs and involvement in court proceedings.

On June 22, 2012, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), a stockholder of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company and several others in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. The action, styled Geveran Investments Limited v. Lighting Science Group Corp., et al., Case No. 12-17738 (07), names as defendants the Company; Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus”) and nine other entities affiliated with Pegasus; Richard Weinberg, a former Director and former interim CEO of the Company and a former partner of Pegasus; Gregory Kaiser, a former CFO of the Company; J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC (“J.P. Morgan”); and two employees of J.P. Morgan. Geveran seeks rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company, as well as recovery of attorneys’ fees and court costs, jointly and severally against the Company, Pegasus, Mr. Weinberg, Mr. Kaiser, J.P. Morgan and the two J.P. Morgan employees, for alleged violation of Florida securities laws. Geveran alternatively seeks unspecified money damages, as well as recovery of court costs, for alleged common law negligent misrepresentation against these same defendants.

The Company has retained counsel, denies liability in connection with this matter, and intends to vigorously defend against the claims asserted by Geveran. While the case is in its early stages and the outcome of any litigation is inherently difficult to predict, the Company currently believes that it has strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. Nonetheless, the amount of possible loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

On August 3, 2012, the Company and its co-defendants filed a motion to transfer this lawsuit from Broward County to the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Brevard County, Florida. On October 30, 2012, the court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida. The Company and its co-defendants are currently appealing the denial of their motion to transfer the lawsuit to Brevard County. During the pendency of the appeal, the litigation is proceeding in Orange County (Case No. 2012-CA-020121-O).

The Company believes that, subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant policies (including retention and policy limits), Directors and Officers insurance coverage will be available to cover nearly all of the Company’s legal fees and costs in this matter. However, given the unspecified nature of Geveran’s maximum damage claims, insurance coverage may not be available for, or such coverage may not be sufficient to fully pay, a judgment or settlement in favor of Geveran. The Company has also been paying, and expects to continue to pay, the reasonable legal expenses incurred by J.P. Morgan and its affiliates in this lawsuit in connection with the engagement of J.P. Morgan as placement agent for the Company’s private placement with Geveran. Such payments are not covered by the Company’s insurance coverage. The engagement letter executed with J.P. Morgan provides that the Company will indemnify J.P. Morgan and its affiliates from liabilities relating to J.P. Morgan’s activities as placement agent, unless such activities are finally judicially determined to have resulted from J.P. Morgan’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. While the case is in its early stages and the outcome of any litigation is inherently difficult to predict, the Company currently believes that it has strong defenses against Geveran’s claim for rescission, that a grant of the remedy of rescission is unlikely and the amount of possible loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated.

During October 2011, the Company was notified of a contract dispute between LSGBV and one of its distributors in which the distributor is seeking monetary damages of approximately $1.2 million. Arbitration was held before the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”), in The Hague, in January 2013, and a decision is expected to be rendered shortly, following the completion of a report by an ICC appointed economics expert. The Company estimates a loss of up to $300,000 in connection with this matter, and has accrued that approximate amount in its financial statements.

Company Overview

We design, develop, manufacture and market general illumination products that exclusively use light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) as their light source. Our product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) that can be used in existing light fixtures and sockets as well as purpose built LED-based luminaires (fixtures), for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications.

We have refocused our primary objectives and developed a new strategic plan for the next three fiscal years. Specifically, we seek to create strong digital lighting brands in the consumer, residential, commercial and industrial markets. We believe that strong, relevant and differentiated brands deliver strong financial returns and, as a result, a more loyal user base that is less price sensitive. We will continue to focus on developing breakthrough innovation and on becoming a market maker in targeted high value-added, high-margin segments within the lighting market. We also intend to continue to implement a nimble and agile “go-to-market” system and business model and to streamline the systems and processes used in introducing new products. Finally, to deliver this strategy, we will seek to build and sustain a highly capable and motivated organization.

Over the past few years, we have focused on expanding and optimizing our global supply chain to meet growing demand for our products while addressing the inefficiencies that have negatively impacted our gross margin performance in prior periods. We anticipate long-term gross margin improvement as we continue to execute on our initiatives. Specifically, we have focused on gaining efficiencies with volume and supply chain optimization through the shift of production to our lower cost manufacturing partner in Mexico, increased sourcing from suppliers closer to our production sites and the continued implementation of our ERP system functionality. In 2013, we have expanded our contract manufacturing partners to include partners in India and China.

In 2013, we expect to benefit from software we have purchased and systems we have implemented specifically to enhance our product pipeline and inventory purchasing procedures through demand-based forecasting and lifecycle management. In addition, on April 5, 2013, we received ISO 9001:2008 certification for the development and manufacture of LED lighting products. This independent certification validates our commitment to quality and affirms the documentation of our quality assurance processes. We anticipate these actions will result in improved forecasting and planning of procurement and manufacturing as well as a more optimized production and supplier footprint.

We continue to focus on increasing brand awareness and product promotion through prominent displays at our retailers and high visibility national media promotion by our key customers. We have recently retained the services of a nationally-recognized brand manager, to continue to improve upon our brand awareness.

The following table sets forth our revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Our revenue is primarily derived from sales of our LED-based retrofit lamps and luminaires. We experienced a decrease in sales of $19.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012, which primarily reflects the loss of Osram Sylvania as a customer in late 2012 and a reduction in sales to The Home Depot in the current period. We had no sales to Osram Sylvania during the three months ended March 31, 2013, as compared to $10.3 million in sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In addition, we experienced an $8.9 million decrease in sales to The Home Depot for the three months ended March 31, 2013 resulting from their not carrying our fixture product line in 2013, which represented $3.5 million of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012, with the balance of the decrease resulting from lower sales of our lamp products to The Home Depot. This reduction was primarily due to a decrease in The Home Depot’s targeted inventory levels. We expect revenue from The Home Depot to increase in 2013 (both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues), as we continue to expand the number of our products we sell to it.

Although we concluded our relationship with Osram Sylvania in late 2012, we continue to pursue new relationships with OEMs and retail stores to help increase sales. In addition, we have significantly increased the roster of distributors and independent sales agents that sell our products and added experienced professionals to our direct sales force to increase the frequency and impact of our activities with key national accounts that are targets for potential adoption of LED lighting.

Our gross margin was primarily affected by the mix of products sold during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012. Our financial results are dependent upon the mix and quantity of products sold, the operating costs associated with our supply chain, including materials, labor and freight, and the level of sales, distribution and administrative, research and development and other operating expenses. We continuously seek to improve our products and to bring new products to market. As a result, many of our products have short life cycles and therefore, product life cycle planning is critical.

At times we may purchase excess components and other materials used in the manufacture and assembly of our products, or we may manufacture finished products in excess of demand. In addition, components, materials and products may become obsolete earlier than expected. These circumstances can lead to inventory valuation allowances and provisions for expected losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments. When these situations arise, we may also incur additional expenses as we adjust our supply chain and product life-cycle planning.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Although our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to the assessment of our operating performance and trends. As part of our ongoing review of financial information related to our business, we regularly use non-GAAP measures, in particular, non-GAAP adjusted gross margin and non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of revenue, as we believe they provide a meaningful insight into our business and useful information with respect to the results of our business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, the comparable GAAP financial measures and are intended to supplement our financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The adjusted presentation below is used by management to measure our business performance and provides useful information regarding the trend in gross margin percentage based on revenue from sales of our products to customers. Excluding non-cash expenses for stock based compensation, restructuring expenses and depreciation and amortization, total operating expenses decreased by 19.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 while revenue decreased 49.1% excluding the $31,000 non-cash sales incentive compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012. Total non-GAAP operating expenses represented 65.9% of adjusted revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to 41.7% of adjusted revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the increase in non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of adjusted revenue was due primarily to the decrease in revenue.

LED Lighting Industry Trends

There are a number of industry factors that affect our business and results of operations including, among others:

 

   

Rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting products. Our potential for growth will be driven by the rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting within the general illumination market and our ability to affect this rate of adoption. Although LED lighting is relatively new and faces significant challenges before achieving widespread adoption, it has grown in recent years. Innovations and advancements in LED lighting technology that improve product performance and reduce product cost continue to enhance the value proposition of LED lighting for general illumination and expand its potential commercial applications.

 

   

External legislation and subsidy programs concerning energy efficiency. The United States and many countries in the European Union and elsewhere, have already instituted, or have announced plans to institute, government regulations and programs designed to encourage or mandate increased energy efficiency in lighting. These actions include in certain cases banning the sale after specified dates of certain forms of incandescent lighting, which is advancing the adoption of more energy efficient lighting solutions such as LEDs. In addition, the growing demand for electricity is increasingly driving utilities and governmental agencies to provide financial incentives such as rebates for energy efficient lighting technologies in an effort to mitigate the need for investments in new electrical generation capacity.

 

   

Intellectual property. LED market participants rely on patented and non-patented proprietary information relating to product development, manufacturing capabilities and other core competencies of their business. Protection and licensing of intellectual property is critical. Therefore, LED lighting industry participants often take steps such as additional patent applications, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements as well as other security measures. To enforce or protect intellectual property rights, market participants commonly commence or threaten litigation.

 

   

Intense and constantly evolving competitive environment. Competition in the LED lighting market is intense. Many companies have made significant investments in LED lighting development and production equipment. Traditional lighting companies and new entrants are investing in LED based lighting products as LED adoption has gained momentum. Product pricing pressures is significant and market participants often undertake pricing strategies to gain or protect market share, enhance sales of their previously manufactured products and open new applications to LED based lighting solutions. To remain competitive, market participants must continuously increase product performance and reduce costs.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and consolidated results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based upon historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.

A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes: (i) we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and (ii) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the financial statements as soon as they became known.

We believe that our critical accounting policies relate to our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 contains a discussion of these critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2012. See also Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as set forth herein.

Revenue

Revenue decreased $19.0 million, or 48.7%, to $20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $38.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in revenue was primarily a result of the loss of Osram Sylvania as a customer in late 2012 and a reduction in sales to The Home Depot in the current period. We had no sales to Osram Sylvania during the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $10.3 million in sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In addition, we experienced an $8.9 million decrease in sales to The Home Depot for the three months ended March 31, 2013 resulting from their not carrying our fixture product line since the beginning of 2013, which line had represented $3.5 million of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012, with the balance of the decrease resulting from lower sales of our lamp products to The Home Depot, primarily due to a decrease in The Home Depot’s targeted inventory levels. We expect revenue from The Home Depot to increase in 2013, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues, as we further expand the number of our products that we sell to it. The decrease in revenue also was affected by non-cash charges of $31,000 and $374,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which represent the fair-value of the portion of the THD Warrant expected to vest during these periods. Excluding the impact of these non-cash charges, our revenue was $20.0 million and $39.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $16.9 million, or 48.3%, to $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $35.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to the corresponding decrease in sales during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 to 90.6% (or a gross margin of 9.4%) as compared to 89.9% (or a gross margin of 10.1%) for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was primarily affected by the mix of products sold during the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 and specifically The Home Depot not carrying our fixture line in 2013. Our gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was negatively affected by a non-cash charge that reduced our revenue by $31,000 and $374,000, respectively.

Selling, Distribution and Administrative

Selling, distribution and administrative expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 14.6%, to $13.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $15.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, but increased as a percentage of revenue to 65.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 39.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in selling, distribution and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $936,000 decrease in freight not billed to customers, resulting primarily from the decrease in revenue, a $620,000 decrease in advertising and promotion expense due to special promotions run in the first quarter of 2012 that were not repeated in 2013, a $462,000 decrease in bad debt expense due to a decrease in our accounts receivable and our on-going focus on improving our collection activities, a $387,000 decrease in audit fees and a $342,000 decrease in recruiting fees. These decreases were partially offset by a $607,000 increase in legal fees due to the Geveran litigation and on-going patent related issues.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $36,000, or 1.6%, to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, but increased as a percentage of revenue to 11.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 6.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The research and development expenses were essentially flat for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $292,000, or 14.8%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily a result of the purchase of manufacturing equipment and research and development machinery during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The $357,000 increase in depreciation expense was partially offset by a $64,000 decrease in amortization expense due primarily to the impairment of certain intangible assets during 2012.

Interest Income

Interest income of $1,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was primarily due to interest earned by our interest bearing bank account in Australia.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $241,000, or 21.6%, to $876,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the decrease in the outstanding borrowings on our asset based revolving credit facility (the “Wells Fargo ABL”), which we originally entered into in November 2010, with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (“Wells Fargo”), which is supported by the Second Lien Letter of Credit Facility (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”), dated as of September 20, 2011, pledged in favor of Wells Fargo by or for the account of Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares Capital”). Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 consisted primarily of $213,000 of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL and $662,000 of interest expense related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 consisted primarily of $392,000 of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL, $675,000 of interest expense related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility, $27,000 of interest expense related to the debt facilities of Lighting Science Group B.V. (“LSGBV”), our subsidiary in the Netherlands, $23,000 of prepaid financing fees paid to Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”) related to the Series G Preferred Units and $22,000 of prepaid financing fees related to the Series G Preferred Units.

Decrease in Fair Value of Liabilities under Derivative Contracts

On May 25, 2012, we issued shares of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock to RW LSG Holdings LLC, an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (collectively with their affiliates, “Riverwood”), and certain other purchasers and issued a warrant to Riverwood (the “Riverwood Warrant”). The Riverwood Warrant was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Riverwood Warrant decreased by $362,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to a decrease in the trading price of our common stock during this period. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, there were no liabilities under derivative contracts.

Dividends on Preferred Stock

Dividends on preferred stock of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 consisted of accrued dividends on our then outstanding shares of the Series G Preferred Stock, which were initially issued on November 17, 2011. All of the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock were converted into shares of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering, which do not have a dividend feature similar to the Series G Preferred Stock.

Accretion of Preferred Stock

Accretion of preferred stock consisted of $676,000 of accretion expense incurred on the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock for the three months ended March 31, 2012. All of the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock were converted into shares of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net decreased $13,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 to other income, net of $6,000 from other income, net of $18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 consisted primarily of a $38,000 foreign exchange gain and $9,000 of miscellaneous income, partially offset by $40,000 in late payment fees. Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 consisted primarily of a $31,000 foreign exchange gain and $22,000 of miscellaneous income, partially offset by $35,000 in late payment fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We continue to experience significant net losses as well as negative cash flows from operations. Our cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory and payment of salaries, benefits and other operating costs, as well as our purchase of production equipment and other capital investments. Our primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from Wells Fargo and sales of common stock and preferred stock to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Advisors, L.P., or Pegasus Capital, including Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings, LLC, or LSGC Holdings, Holdings II and PCA LSG Holdings, LLC, or PCA Holdings. Our most recent source of liquidity (the Series H and I Preferred Offering), however, was provided primarily by parties other than Pegasus Capital and its affiliates.

As of March 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.6 million and an additional $5.0 million of cash subject to restriction under the terms of the Wells Fargo ABL. In addition, our Wells Fargo ABL provided us with borrowing capacity of up to a maximum of $50.0 million, which capacity is equal to the sum of (i) 85% of our eligible accounts receivable plus up to $7.5 million of eligible inventory, less certain allowances established against such accounts receivable and inventory by Wells Fargo from time to time pursuant to the Wells Fargo ABL, plus (ii) unrestricted cash held in a Wells Fargo deposit account (“Qualified Cash”), plus (iii) the amount of the Ares Letter of Credit Facility for the benefit of the Company (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). We are at all times required to maintain (i) a Borrowing Base that exceeds the amount of our outstanding borrowings under the Wells Fargo ABL by at least $5.0 million and (ii) $5.0 million in Qualified Cash. We would be required to comply with certain specified EBITDA requirements in the event that we have less than $2.0 million available for borrowing under the Wells Fargo ABL. As of March 31, 2013, we had $10.5 million outstanding under the Wells Fargo ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $37.3 million.

On April 1, 2013, we entered into Amendment No. 6 to the Wells Fargo ABL which among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of the Wells Fargo ABL to April 2, 2014, and (ii) reduced the maximum credit available under the Wells Fargo ABL by $2.5 million (from $50.0 million to $47.5 million) on November 22, 2013 if (x) our consolidated earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the nine month period ending on September 30, 2013 is greater than $(20.2 million) and (y) excess availability under the Wells Fargo ABL on November 22, 2013 is less than $10.0 million.

Pursuant to Amendment No. 6, Wells Fargo also waived certain events of defaults under the Wells Fargo ABL related to our creation of Lighting Science India Private Limited (“LSIPL”), our new subsidiary in India. We also agreed to pledge 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of such subsidiary as collateral supporting the Wells Fargo ABL. Further, Amendment No. 6 permits us to make additional advances to certain affiliates (including LSIPL) in an amount not to exceed $500,000 from the date of Amendment No. 6 through October 1, 2013, and in an amount not to exceed $250,000 thereafter.

On April 1, 2013, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to Ares Letter of Credit Facility (the “Ares Amendment”) which extended the maturity date to April 2, 2014. Pursuant to the Ares Amendment, Ares Capital also waived certain events of defaults under the Ares Letter of Credit Facility related to our creation of LSIPL. We also agreed to pledge 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of LSIPL as collateral supporting the Ares Letter of Credit Facility.

Table of Contents

We believe we will have sufficient capital to fund our operations for the next 12 months based on our current business plan and the assumptions set forth therein. In future periods, if we do not adequately execute upon our business plan or our assumptions or forecasts do not prove to be accurate, we could exhaust our available capital resources, which could require us to seek additional sources of liquidity or further reduce our expenditures to preserve our cash. Our sources of liquidity may not be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to us.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Net cash provided by financing activities

     9,040,285        13,580,033   

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities is net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $14.2 million and $14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included certain non-cash reconciliation items comprised primarily of $2.3 million in depreciation and amortization, $2.3 million of stock-based compensation expense and a $31,000 reduction in revenue for the fair value of the portion of the THD Warrant expected to vest during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, net cash used in operations included certain non-cash reconciliation items comprised primarily of $2.0 million in depreciation and amortization, $1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense, $1.0 million in accrued dividends on preferred stock, $676,000 accretion on preferred stock and a $374,000 reduction in revenue for the fair value of the portion of the THD Warrant expected to vest during the period.

Net cash used in operating activities increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to changes in working capital. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, accounts payable decreased $7.0 million, accrued expenses decreased $816,000 and prepaid expenses increased $304,000. These cash uses were partially offset by a $4.0 million decrease in accounts receivable as we improved our collection efforts and a $1.4 million decrease in inventories.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities primarily relates to the purchase of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $596,000 and $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in our capital expenditures as we focused on cost saving measures.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities has historically been composed of net proceeds from various debt facilities and the issuance of common and preferred stock. Net cash provided by financing activities was $9.0 million and $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was comprised of $9.0 million in net borrowings on the Wells Fargo ABL. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 decreased primarily because of the issuance of $11.3 million of preferred stock for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and no such issuance occurring for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This decrease was partially offset by the increase in net borrowings on our line of credit to $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to net borrowings of $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
