CEO Commentary
“We continued to make meaningful progress across our key operational and sales initiatives, executing with discipline and positioning the Company for accelerated growth,” said Krishna Vanka, CEO of Flux Power. “I am proud that the team delivered on our $6.8 million revenue commitment this quarter, despite facing multiple headwinds across the business. I am also pleased to announce that our most significant customer who previously paused orders returned with a meaningful order through our OEM partner. This win along with a number of orders through our OEM partners for first-time Flux Power customers demonstrate the initial success of our OEM partnership strategy.”
To complement these efforts, we launched a go-to-market campaign targeting the 500 largest end-user accounts in North America. This campaign adds a direct, enterprise-level dialogue with the operators of the largest fleets. We are also converting early wins and securing follow-on orders in high-growth new verticals, such as Robotics, with our initial global technology platform customer. We are also leveraging our S-Series as an anchor product for white-label opportunities and advancing a more integrated supply-chain model that is designed to improve scale and gross margin potential.
“Taken together, these developments reflect a commercial strategy that we believe is beginning to compound. With a leaner cost structure and growing market demand for lithium-ion battery solutions, I believe we’re in a much stronger position to drive growth and move toward profitability in the coming quarters.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Flux Power has presented in this release certain financial information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and also on a non-GAAP basis, including non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, and adjusted EBITDA.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with Flux Power’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about Flux Power’s period-over-period results. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management believes they provide additional information with respect to the performance of Flux Power’s fundamental business activities and adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. Flux Power also relies on adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of the Company and its management team.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or construed as a substitute for, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP for the purpose of analyzing Flux Power’s operating performance or financial position. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables at the end of this release.
