CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD- LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements
include, without limitation, statements regarding the financial
position, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for
future operations, and any statements that refer to
characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any
underlying circumstances. These statements constitute projections,
forecasts and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of
performance. Such statements can be identified by the fact that
they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When
used in this report, the words “could,” “should”, “will,” “may,”
“anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,”
“project,” the negative of such terms, and other similar
expressions are intended to identify forward looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements contain such
identifying words. Such forward-looking statements are based on
management’s current expectations and assumptions about future
events and are based on currently available information as to the
outcome and timing of future events.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties including, but not limited to, those described below
and under the section entitled “Risk Factors” included in our
Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2021, and in subsequent reports that we file with the SEC,
including this Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31,
2022.
•our
ability to commercialize our products and strategic plans,
including our ability to establish facilities to produce our
vehicles or secure hydrogen supply in appropriate volumes, at
competitive costs or with competitive emissions
profiles;
•our
ability to compete effectively in the heavy-duty transportation
sector, and withstand intense competition and competitive pressures
from other companies worldwide in the industries in which we
operate;
•our
ability to convert non-binding memoranda of understanding and
letters of intent into binding orders or sales (including because
of current or prospective resources of our counterparties) and the
ability of our counterparties to make payments on
orders;
•our
ability to invest in hydrogen production, distribution, and
refueling operations to supply our customers with hydrogen at
competitive costs to operate their fuel cell electric
vehicles;
•disruptions
to the global supply chain, including as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic and geopolitical events, and shortage of raw materials,
and the related impacts on our third party suppliers and
assemblers;
•
our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on
NASDAQ;
•
our ability to raise financing in the future;
•
our ability to retain or recruit, or changes required in, our
officers, key employees or directors;
•
our ability to protect, defend, or enforce intellectual property on
which we depend; and
•the
impacts of legal proceedings, regulatory disputes and governmental
inquiries.
Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described above,
or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results
and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based
on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future
developments and their potential effects on us and speak only as of
the date of this report. Except as otherwise required by applicable
law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward looking statements,
all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this
section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this
report. You should, however, review additional disclosures we make
in subsequent filings with the SEC.

Hyzon Motors Inc. (“Hyzon” or the “Company”), headquartered in
Honeoye Falls, New York, assembles and supplies hydrogen fuel
cell-powered commercial vehicles across North America, Europe,
China, and Australasia. In addition, Hyzon builds and fosters a
clean hydrogen supply ecosystem with leading partners from
feedstocks through production, dispensing, and financing. The
Company is majority-owned by Hymas Pte. Ltd. (“Hymas”), a Singapore
company, which is majority-owned but indirectly controlled by
Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies PTE Ltd., a Singapore company
(“Horizon”).
Business Combination and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and
related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“U.S. GAAP”) pursuant to the requirements and rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim
reporting. Certain notes or other information that are normally
required by U.S. GAAP have been omitted if they substantially
duplicate the disclosures contained in the Company’s annual audited
consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the unaudited
consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with
the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related
notes included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements include
the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries including variable interest entity arrangements in
which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany
accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented.
Results of operations reported for interim periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year or any
other periods.
On July 16, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), legacy Hyzon Motors Inc. and
now named Hyzon Motors USA Inc., (“Legacy Hyzon”), consummated the
transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization (the “Business Combination”), dated February
8, 2021, with Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corporation (“DCRB”)
to effect a business combination between DCRB and Legacy Hyzon with
DCRB Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of DCRB, merging
with and into Legacy Hyzon, with Legacy Hyzon surviving the merger
as a wholly owned subsidiary of DCRB. On the Closing Date, DCRB
changed its name to “Hyzon Motors Inc.” and Legacy Hyzon changed
its name to “Hyzon Motors USA Inc.”
The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse
recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with no goodwill or
other intangible assets recorded and the net assets of Legacy Hyzon
consolidated with DCRB at historical cost. Under this method of
accounting, DCRB is treated as the “acquired” company for financial
reporting purposes.
Accordingly, the equity structure has been retrospectively adjusted
in all comparative periods up to the Closing Date, to reflect the
number of shares of the Company's common stock, $0.0001 par value
per share issued to Legacy Hyzon's stockholders in connection with
the reverse recapitalization. As such, the shares and corresponding
capital amounts and earnings per share related to Legacy Hyzon
common stock prior to the Business Combination have been
retroactively restated as shares reflecting an exchange ratio of
1.772 (the “Exchange Ratio”).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has incurred losses from operations since inception.
The Company incurred net losses of $11.0 million and $8.4 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, and accumulated deficit amounted to $37.2 million and
$28.1 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
respectively. Net cash used in operating activities was $29.2
million and $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively.
On July 16, 2021, the Company received $512.9 million in cash,
net of redemption and transaction costs as a result of the Business
Combination. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has $407.3
million in unrestricted cash. Management expects that the Company’s
cash, after taking consideration of the current projections of cash
flow used in operating and investing activities, will be sufficient
to meet its liquidity requirements for at least one year from the
issuance date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Based on the above considerations, the Company’s unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities during the normal course of
operations.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties
common to early-stage companies with a history of losses and are
expected to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for
the foreseeable future. The risks and uncertainties include, but
not limited to, further development of its technology, marketing
and distribution channels, further development of its supply chain
and manufacturing, development by competitors of new technological
innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary
technology, and the ability to secure additional capital to fund
operations.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note
2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company’s
consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2021. There have been no material changes to the significant
accounting policies during the three-month period ended
March 31, 2022.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet
adopted
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-08,
Business Combination (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets
and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with
Customers.
This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to
recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities
(deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue
recognition guidance in Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”)
606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue
model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is
effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022,
including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of
the ASU should be applied prospectively to business combinations
occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early
adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The
Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this guidance
on its financial position, results of operations, or cash
flow.
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The
Company assessed ASUs not listed above and determined that they
either were not applicable or were not expected to have a material
impact on the unaudited consolidated financial
statements.
Note 3. Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company
recognized $0.4 million in sales of fuel cell systems. The
Company did not recognize any revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 2021.
Contract Balances
Contract liabilities relate to the advance consideration invoiced
or received from customers for products and services prior to
satisfying a performance obligation or in excess of amounts
allocated to a previously satisfied performance obligation. These
amounts are included within Contract liabilities in the unaudited
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The carrying amount of contract liabilities included in the
accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets was
$11.1 million and $11.2 million as of March 31, 2022, and
December 31, 2021, respectively.
Remaining Performance Obligations
The transaction price associated with remaining performance
obligations related to binding orders for commercial vehicles and
other contracts with customers was $22.0 million and
$22.4 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
respectively. The Company expects to recognize substantially all
its remaining performance obligations as revenue over the next 12
months.

Note 8. Investments in Equity Securities
The Company owns common shares, participation rights, and options
to purchase additional common shares in certain private companies.
On a non-recurring basis, the carrying value is adjusted for
changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly
transactions for identical or similar investments in the same
issuer.
Included in Change in fair value of equity securities in the
unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive
Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is a $12.5 million
gain from the equity investment in Raven SR, LLC (“Raven”). The
investment in Raven’s common shares and options were initially
accounted for at cost of $2.5 million. Subsequently in March
2022, there was an observable change in price of Raven’s common
shares. The change in observable price of Raven’s common shares
also results in a remeasurement of the investment in Raven’s
options as of the date that the observable transaction took place.
The fair value of the investment in Raven’s common shares was
determined based on observable market prices of identical
instruments in less active markets and is classified accordingly as
Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Due to certain anti-dilution
rights included in the options held by the Company, the fair value
was determined utilizing a Monte-Carlo simulation model.
Accordingly, this was determined to be a Level 3 measurement in the
fair value hierarchy. The most significant assumptions in the model
included the transaction price of the underlying common shares at
the transaction date, expected volatility, risk free rate, and
certain assumptions around the likelihood, size, and timing of
potential future equity raises by Raven. As of March 31, 2022, the
Company determined the fair value of the investment in Raven’s
common shares and options to be $6.5 million and
$8.5 million, respectively.

securities, measured as the total initial cost plus cumulative net

Note 9. Income Taxes
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded
a net discrete tax expense of $0.5 million primarily
associated with the establishment of a deferred tax liability that
is not expected to offset available deferred tax assets. The
Company did not record a provision for income taxes for the three
months ended March 31, 2021 because the Company generated tax
losses.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income
tax purposes. The Company assesses all available evidence, both
positive and negative, to determine the amount of any required
valuation allowance within each taxing jurisdiction. Full valuation
allowances have been established for the Company’s operations in
all jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2022, and December 31,
2021, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately
$25.1 million and $21.9 million, respectively, each of which was
fully offset by a valuation allowance.
There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for
interest and penalties as of March 31, 2022 and
December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any
issues under review that could result in significant payments,
accruals or material deviation from its positions. The Company is
subject to income tax examinations by taxing authorities in the
countries in which it operates since inception.
Note 10. Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurement. For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring and nonrecurring basis, a three-level hierarchy of
measurements based upon observable and unobservable inputs is used
to arrive at fair value. The Company uses valuation approaches that
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines
fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use
in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most
advantageous market. When considering market participant
assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value
hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs,
which are categorized in one of the following levels:
•Level 1
inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the
measurement date.
•Level 2
inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or
indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or
liability.
•Level 3
inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to
measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not
available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is
little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at
measurement date.
As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the carrying
amount of accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets,
accounts payable, and accrued and other current liabilities
approximated their estimated fair value due to their relatively
short maturities.
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets
and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring
basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation
inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value (in
thousands):

Private Placement Warrants
Following the lapsing of certain transferability restrictions
subsequent to the Business Combination, the features of the Private
Placement Warrants became identical to the Public Warrants, except
that so long as they are held by the sponsor of the Business
Combination, the Private Placement Warrants are not redeemable by
the Company. Due to these similarities, the estimated fair value of
the Private Placement Warrants was equal to the fair value of the
Public Warrants at March 31, 2022.
Earnout to Common Stockholders
The fair value of the earnout shares was estimated by utilizing a
Monte-Carlo simulation model. The inputs into the Monte-Carlo
pricing model included significant unobservable inputs. The

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to, and may become a party to, a variety of
litigation, other claims, suits, indemnity demands, regulatory
actions, and government investigations and inquiries in the
ordinary course of business. The Company is party to current legal
proceedings as discussed more fully below.
Three related putative securities class action lawsuits were filed
between September 30, 2021 and November 15, 2021, in the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of New York against the
Company, certain of the Company’s current officers and directors
and certain officers and directors of DCRB: (Kauffmann v. Hyzon
Motors Inc., et al. (No. 21-cv-06612-CJS), Brennan v. Hyzon Motors
Inc., et al. (No. 21-cv-06636- CJS), and Miller v. Hyzon Motors
Inc. et al. (No. 21-cv-06695-CJS)), asserting violations of federal
securities laws. The complaints generally allege that the Company
and individual defendants made materially false and misleading
statements relating to the nature of the Company’s customer
contracts, vehicle orders, and sales and earnings projections,
based on allegations in a report released on September 28, 2021, by
Blue Orca Capital, an investment firm that indicated that it held a
short position in our stock and which has made numerous allegations
about the Company. These lawsuits have been consolidated under the
caption In re Hyzon Motors Inc. Securities Litigation (Case No.
6:21-cv-06612-CJSMWP), and on March 21, 2022, the court-appointed
lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint seeking
monetary damages.
Between December 16, 2021 and January 14, 2022, three related
shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District
Court for the Western District of New York: (Lee v. Anderson et al.
(No. 21-cv-06744-CJS); Révész v. Anderson et al. (No.
22-cv-06012-CJS); and Shorab v. Anderson et al. (No.
22-cv-06023CJS)). On February 2, 2022, a similar shareholder
derivative lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the
District of Delaware (Yellets v. Gu et al. (No. 22-cv-00156), and
on February 3, 2022, another similar shareholder derivative lawsuit
was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Kings
County (Ruddiman v. Anderson et al. (No. 503402/2022)). These
lawsuits name as defendants
the Company’s current directors and certain former directors of
DCRB, along with the Company as a nominal defendant, and generally
allege that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary
duties by making or failing to prevent the misrepresentations
alleged in the consolidated securities class action, and assert
claims for violations of federal securities laws, breach of
fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross
mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. These lawsuits
generally seek equitable relief and monetary damages.
On March 18, 2022, a putative class action complaint, Malork v.
Anderson et al. (C.A. No. 2022-0260- KSJM), was filed in the
Delaware Court of Chancery against certain officers and directors
of DCRB, DCRB’s sponsor, and certain investors in DCRB’s sponsor,
alleging that the director defendants and controlling shareholders
of DCRB’s sponsor breached their fiduciary duties in connection
with the merger between DCRB and Legacy Hyzon. The complaint seeks
equitable relief and monetary damages.
Between January 26, 2022 and March 28, 2022, Hyzon received four
demands for books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law from stockholders who state they
are investigating whether to file similar derivative or stockholder
lawsuits, among other purposes. The proceedings are subject to
uncertainties inherent in the litigation process. We cannot predict
the outcome of these matters or estimate the possible loss or range
of possible loss, if any.
On January 12, 2022, the Company announced that it had received a
subpoena from the SEC for production of documents and information,
including documents and information related to the allegations made
in the September 28, 2021 report issued by Blue Orca Capital. The
Company is cooperating with the SEC.
Regardless of outcome, such proceedings or claims can have an
adverse impact on us because of legal defense and settlement costs,
our obligations to indemnify third parties, diversion of resources,
and other factors, and there can be no assurances that favorable
outcomes will be obtained. Based on the early-stage nature of these
cases, we cannot predict the outcome of these matters or estimate
the possible loss or range of possible loss, if any.

As of March 31, 2022, there was $2.5 million of unrecognized
stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options,
which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period
of 4.46 years.
RSUs granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans typically
vest over a
four or five-year period beginning on the date of grant.
RSUs will be settled through the issuance of an equivalent number
of shares of our common stock and are
equity classified. The fair value of restricted shares is
determined based upon the stock price on the date of grant. As of
March 31, 2022, unrecognized compensation costs related to
unvested RSUs of $9.6 million is expected to be recognized over a
remaining weighted average period of 3.42 years.
Earnout to Other Equity Holders
Earnout awards to other equity holders are accounted for under ASC
718 were vested at the time of grant, and therefore recognized
immediately as compensation expense. Total compensation expense
recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2022 related to
these earnout awards was $1.0 million. Certain earnout awards to
other equity holders contained performance and market-based vesting
conditions, and as the performance conditions are not deemed
probable at March 31, 2022, no compensation expense has been
recorded related to these awards.
Note 13. Stockholders' Equity
Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 400,000,000 shares of common
stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A

Note 14. Related Party Transactions
Horizon IP Agreement
In January 2021, the Company entered into an intellectual property
agreement (the “Horizon IP Agreement”) with Jiangsu Qingneng New
Energy Technologies Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Qingneng Horizon New
Energy Ltd. (together, “JS Horizon”) both of which are affiliates
of the Company’s ultimate parent, Horizon. In September 2021,
Jiangsu Horizon Powertrain Technologies Co. Ltd. (“JS Powertrain”)
was an added party to the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement the
parties convey to each other certain rights in intellectual
property relating to Hyzon’s core fuel cell and mobility product
technologies, under which Hyzon was to pay JS Horizon and JS
Powertrain a total fixed payment of $10 million. As of March
31, 2022, the full $10 million has been paid,
$6.9 million was paid in 2021 and the remaining
$3.1 million was paid in February 2022.
Related Party Payables and Receivables
Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies and Related
Subsidiaries
Hyzon utilizes Horizon to supply certain fuel cell components. In
March 2021, the Company made a deposit payment to Horizon in the
amount of $5.0 million to secure fuel cell components. This payment
is included in prepaid expenses as none of the components have yet
been received. In addition, the Company made other deposit payments
to purchase fuel cell systems and components from Horizon and its
affiliates. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Cost of
revenue of $0.1 million for fuel cell components purchased from
Horizon and its affiliates were recorded in the Company’s unaudited
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive
Loss.
Certain employees of Horizon and its affiliates provide services to
the Company. Based on an analysis of the compensation costs
incurred by Horizon and an estimate of the proportion of effort
spent by such employees on each entity, an allocation of
approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million was recorded in the
Company’s unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and
Comprehensive Loss related to such services for the three months
ended March 31, 2022, and
2021, respectively.
The related party liability to Horizon and its affiliates is $0.6
million and $3.6 million as of March 31, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, respectively.
Holthausen and Affiliates
The Company entered into a joint venture agreement in October 2020
to create Hyzon Motors Europe B.V. (“Hyzon Europe”) with Holthausen
Clean Technology Investments B.V. (“Holthausen”). As Hyzon Europe
builds out its production facilities, it relies on Holthausen and
its affiliates for certain production resources that result in
related party transactions. In addition, both companies rely on
certain suppliers, including Horizon.
The Company currently owns 50.5% of the equity interests of Hyzon
Europe. On December 31, 2021, Hyzon executed a non-binding Letter
of Intent (“LOI”) with Holthausen to increase its stake to 75% in
Hyzon Europe. Concurrent with the signing of this LOI,
€1 million refundable deposit was paid to Holthausen,
approximately $1.1 million in U.S. dollars (“USD”). This
deposit is recorded in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets in
Prepaid expenses and other current assets.
On May 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement
(“SPA”) with Holthausen, whereby the Company agreed to purchase
735,000 shares Holthausen holds in Hyzon Europe. When the
transaction closes, the Company will own 75% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Hyzon Europe, and Holthausen will own 25%. As
part of the SPA, Holthausen agreed to transfer to Hyzon Europe all
of its shares of stock in Holthausen Clean Technology B.V, private
limited liability company registered in the Netherlands. The
Company agreed to a total purchase price of €27.0 million,
approximately $28.5 million in USD, in a combination of cash
and equity of the Company.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid
$0.1 million in director services to Carl Holthausen and Max
Holthausen as executives of Hyzon Europe.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has a
net related party receivable in the amount of $0.4 million and $0.3
million, respectively from Holthausen.

Item 2. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
The following discussion and analysis provide information that
management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding
of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
This discussion is intended to supplement, and should be read in
conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2021 Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K. Unless the context otherwise requires,
all references in this section to “Hyzon,” “we,” “us,” and “our”
are intended to mean the business and operations of Hyzon Motors
Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries following the consummation
of the Business Combination and to Legacy Hyzon and its
consolidated subsidiaries prior to the Business
Combination.
Overview
Headquartered in Rochester, New York, with operations in North
America, Europe, China, and Australasia, Hyzon provides
decarbonized solutions primarily for commercial vehicles market and
hydrogen supply infrastructure.
Vehicles and Vehicle Platforms
Our commercial vehicle business is focused primarily on assembling
and supplying hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles
(“FCEVs”), including heavy-duty (Class 8) trucks, medium-duty
(Class 6) trucks, light-duty (Class 3 and 4) trucks, and 40 and
60-foot (12 and18-meter) city and coach buses to commercial vehicle
operators.
On-road, our potential customers include shipping and logistics
companies and retail customers with large distribution networks,
such as grocery retailers, food and beverage companies, waste
management companies, and municipality and government agencies
around the world. Off-road, our potential customers include mining,
material handling and port equipment manufacturers and operators.
Initial strategic customer groups often employ a ‘back-to-base’
model where their vehicles return to a central base or depot
between operations, thereby allowing operators to have fueling
independence as the necessary hydrogen can be produced locally at
or proximate to the central base and dispensed at
optimally-configured hydrogen refueling stations. Hyzon may expand
its range of products and hydrogen solutions as the transportation
sector increasingly adopts hydrogen propulsion and investments are
made in hydrogen production and related infrastructure in
accordance with our expectations.
In addition, we perform integration for rail and aviation customers
and plan to expand our integration activities across maritime and
other applications in the future. We expect the opportunities in
these sectors to continue to expand with the rapid technological
advances in hydrogen fuel cells and the increasing investments in
hydrogen production, storage and refueling infrastructure around
the world.
Fuel and Infrastructure
Our hydrogen supply infrastructure business is focused on building
and fostering a clean hydrogen supply ecosystem with leading
partners from feedstock through hydrogen production, dispensing and
financing. We collaborate with strategic partners on development,
construction, operation, and ownership of hydrogen production
facilities and refueling stations in each major region of our
operations, which we intend to complement our back-to-base model
and near-term fleet deployment opportunities.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic is currently impacting countries,
communities, supply chains, and the global financial markets.
Governments have imposed laws requiring social distancing, travel
restrictions, shutdowns of businesses and quarantines, among
others, and these laws may limit our ability to meet with potential
customers or partners, or affect the ability of our personnel,
suppliers, partners and customers to operate in the ordinary course
of business. Although the economy has begun to recover, the
severity and duration of the related global economic crisis is not
fully known. The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to continue to have
residual negative impacts, in particular the supply chain continues
to face disruptions. Rebounding demand in key components challenge
the supply base and supply chain with short notice and increasing
volume levels. The supply constraints include overseas freight
congestion causing extended lead times, semiconductor allocation,
other raw/component material shortages and supplier staffing
challenges.
The COVID-19 pandemic and measures to prevent its spread have had
the following impact on our business:
•Our
workforce.
Employee health and safety is our priority. In response to
COVID-19, we established protocols to help protect the health and
safety of our workforce. We will continue to stay up-to-date and
follow local, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”),
or World Health Organization (“WHO”) guidelines regarding safe work
environment requirements.
•Operations
and Supply Chain.
We continue to experience supply chain disruptions, which may
temporarily limit our ability to outfit vehicles and fuel cell
systems with key components. However, our global footprint has
allowed us to leverage our strategic partnerships and to meet
customer demands for zero-emission heavy commercial vehicles
despite these challenges. In the future, we may experience supply
chain disruptions from related or third-party suppliers and any
such supply chain disruptions could cause delays in our development
and delivery timelines. We continue to monitor the situation for
any potential adverse impacts and execute appropriate
countermeasures, where possible.
While we have experienced some operational challenges, the
long-term implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our workforce,
operations and supply chain, as well as demand remain uncertain.
These factors may in turn, have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations, financial position, and cash
flows.
Key Trends and Uncertainties
We believe that our performance and future success depends on
several factors that present significant opportunities for us but
also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and
in the section entitled “Risk
Factors”
included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2021.
Commercial Launch of Hyzon-branded commercial vehicles and other
hydrogen solutions
We reported $0.4 million of revenue from hydrogen fuel cell system
sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022; however, our
business model has yet to be proven. Prior to full
commercialization of our commercial vehicle business at scale, we
must complete the construction of required manufacturing facilities
and achieve research and development milestones. We must establish
and operate facilities capable of producing our hydrogen fuel cell
systems or assembling our hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles in
appropriate volumes and at competitive costs.
Until we can generate sufficient additional revenue from our
commercial vehicle business, we expect to finance our operations
through equity and/or debt financing. The amount and timing of our
future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including
the pace and results of our development efforts. We expect that any
delays in the successful completion of our manufacturing
facilities, availability of critical parts, and/or validation and
testing will impact our ability to generate revenue.
Hydrogen Production & Supply Infrastructure
We continue to develop an end-to-end hydrogen ecosystem delivery
model, with a partner-driven approach to design, build, own and
operate hydrogen production hubs and downstream dispensing
infrastructure expected to provide zero-to-negative carbon
intensity hydrogen at below diesel-parity cost structures
supporting Hyzon vehicle fleet deployments. We intend to continue
forming additional partnerships across the full hydrogen feedstock,
production and dispensing value chain in each major region in which
we operate, that will be designed to ensure that the hydrogen fuel
required is available at the cost and carbon intensity requirements
to drive fleet conversions to Hyzon hydrogen FCEVs. Because we have
a partner-driven approach, we are naturally reliant upon our
partners’ performance in fulfilling the obligations that we depend
on for delivery of each segment of that value chain. Additionally,
consistent with other construction projects, there are risks
related to realized construction cost and schedule that can impact
final cost to produce and deliver hydrogen and timing of that
delivery, along with the availability of feedstock near our vehicle
fleet deployments. We intend to manage these risks by partnering
with high quality and high performing partners with a track record
of timely delivery and instituting commercial agreements to drive
down construction cost and achieve on-time scheduled
performance.
Continued Investment in Innovation
We believe that we are the industry-leading hydrogen technology
company with the most efficient and reliable fuel cell powertrain
technologies and an unmatched product and service offering. Our
financial performance will be significantly dependent on our
ability to maintain this leading position. We expect to incur
substantial and increasing research and
development expenses and stock-based compensation expenses as a
result. We dedicate significant resources towards research and
development and invest heavily in recruiting talent, especially for
vehicle design, vehicle software, fuel cell system, and electric
powertrain. We will continue to recruit and retain talented
personnel to grow our strength in our core technologies. We expect
to incur additional stock-based compensation expenses as we support
our growth and status as a publicly traded company. We expect our
strategic focus on innovation will further solidify our leadership
position.
Customer Demand
We are continually seeking to expand our customer base; however we
depend on a few major customers and we expect this will continue
for the next several years. These customers will mostly employ a
back-to-base model in the early adoption phase of FCEVs. Vehicles
will return to a central “base” between operations, allowing them
to refuel onsite and/or nearby, where hydrogen can be produced
locally at or proximate to the central base. While we focus on
back-to-base or regional customers, we expect to expand our target
customer focus to include longer-haul truck and bus segments,
additional vehicle classes, stationary power, and incremental
mobility applications (e.g., rail, marine, aviation) for customers
around the world.
Supplier Relationships
We depend on third parties, including our majority beneficial
shareholder and parent company Horizon for supply of key inputs and
components for our products, such as fuel cells and automotive
parts. We intend to negotiate potential relationships with
industry-leading OEMs to supply chassis for our Hyzon-branded
vehicles but do not yet have any binding agreements and there is no
guarantee that definitive agreements will be reached. Even if we
reach such agreements, such suppliers, including Horizon, may be
unable to deliver the inputs and components necessary for us to
produce our hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles or hydrogen fuel
cell systems at prices, volumes, and specifications acceptable to
us. If we are unable to source required inputs and other components
from third parties on acceptable terms, it could have a material
adverse effect on our business and results of
operations.
The automotive industry continues to face many supply chain
disruptions. We are experiencing increases in both the cost of and
time to receive raw materials, such as semiconductors or chassis.
Any such increase or supply interruptions could materially
negatively impact our business, prospects, financial condition, and
operating results. Many of the parts for our products are sourced
from suppliers in China, and the manufacturing situation in China
remains uncertain.
Market Trends and Competition
The last ten years have seen the rapid development of alternative
energy solutions in the transportation space. We believe this
growth will continue to accelerate as increased product offerings,
technological developments, reduced costs, additional supporting
infrastructure, and increased global focus on climate goals drive
broader adoption.
We believe that commercial vehicle operators, one of our initial
target markets, will be driven towards hydrogen-powered commercial
vehicles predominantly by the need to decarbonize activities, but
also by the potential for lower total cost of ownership in
comparison to the cost of ownership associated with traditional
gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines. Our fuel cell
technology can be deployed across a broad range of mobility
applications, including on-road, off-road, rail, maritime and
aviation.
The competitive landscape for our commercial vehicles ranges from
vehicles relying on legacy internal combustion engines, to extended
range electric and battery electric engines, to other hydrogen fuel
cell and alternative low-to-no carbon emission propulsion vehicles.
Competitors include well established vehicle companies already
deploying vehicles with internal fuel cell technology and other
heavy vehicle companies that have announced their plans to offer
fuel cell trucks in the future. We also face competition from other
fuel cell manufacturers. We believe that our company is well
positioned to capitalize on growth in demand for alternative
low-to-no carbon emission propulsion vehicles due to the numerous
benefits of hydrogen power, including hydrogen’s abundance and
ability to be produced locally and the generally faster refueling
times for hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles, as compared to
electricity-powered vehicles. However, in order to successfully
execute on our business plan, we must continue to innovate and
convert successful research and development efforts into
differentiated products, including new commercial vehicle
models.
Our current and potential competitors have greater financial,
technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources. Our
competitors may be able to deploy greater resources to the design,
development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sales,
marketing, and support of their internal combustion, alternative
fuel and electric truck programs.
Regulatory Landscape
We operate in a highly regulated industry. The failure to comply
with laws or regulations, including but limited to rules and
regulations covering vehicle safety, emissions, dealerships, and
distributors, could subject us to significant regulatory risk and
changing laws and regulations and changing enforcement policies and
priorities could adversely affect our business, prospects,
financial condition and operating results. We may be also required
to obtain and comply with the terms and conditions of multiple
environmental permits, many of which are difficult and costly to
obtain and could be subject to legal challenges. We depend on
global customers and suppliers, and adverse changes in governmental
policy or trade regimes could significantly impact the
competitiveness of our products. Changes to applicable tax laws and
regulations or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could
affect our business and future profitability. See the section
entitled “Government
Regulations”
in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2021.

were $27.1 million compared to $3.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2021. Operating expenses consist of cost of
revenue, research and development expenses and selling, general and
administrative expenses.
Cost of Revenue.
Cost of revenue includes direct materials, labor costs, allocated
overhead costs related to the manufacture of hydrogen FCEVs, fuel
cell systems, and estimated warranty costs. Cost of revenue for the
three months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.4 million. We did not
generate revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and
therefore had no cost of revenue for the three months ended March
31, 2021.
Research and Development Expenses.
Research and development expenses represent costs incurred to
support activities that advance the development of current and next
generation hydrogen powered fuel cell systems, the design and
development of electric powertrain, and the integration of those
systems into various mobility applications. Our research and
development expenses consist primarily of employee-related
personnel expenses, prototype materials and tooling, design
expenses, consulting and contractor costs and an allocated portion
of overhead costs.
Research and development expenses were $6.2 million and $0.6
million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. The increase was primarily due to $3.5 million in
higher personnel costs in developing our research and development
expertise in vehicle design, vehicle software, fuel cell system,
and electric powertrain. The remaining increase of $2.1 million was
primarily due to the advancing development of current and next
generation hydrogen powered fuel cell systems, the design and
development of electric powertrain, and the integration of those
systems into various mobility applications. We expect research and
development expenses to continue to increase significantly going
forward as we build out our research facilities and
organization.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.
Selling expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs for
individuals working in our sales and marketing departments, third
party commissions, and related outreach activities. General and
administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related
expenses associated with our executive, finance, legal, information
technology and human resources functions, as well as professional
fees for legal, audit, accounting and other consulting services,
and an allocated portion of overhead costs.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $20.5 million
and $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. The increase was primarily due to $5.0 million
in higher legal, accounting and consulting fees, $4.5 million in
higher salary and related expenses, $2.6 million in higher
insurance expense and $1.8 million in higher stock compensation
expense. In addition, we incurred additional $2.0 million in IT,
rent, travel and other office related expenses to support business
growth. We incurred greater selling, general, and administrative
expense in the first quarter of 2022 as the Company continues to
build out its corporate infrastructure, including accounting,
audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services. The increase in
selling, general and administrative costs also resulted from
director and officer insurance costs, investor and public relations
costs.
Change in Fair Value.
Change in fair value represents non-cash gains or losses in
estimated fair values of the private placement warrant liability,
earnout liability, and investments in equity securities. Private
placement warrant and earnout liabilities are remeasured at each
balance sheet date. Equity securities are remeasured when there is
an observable price adjustment in an orderly transaction for an
identical or similar investment in the same issuer. Changes in
estimated fair values of private placement warrant liability,
earnout liability, and investments in equity securities for the
three months ended March 31, 2022, were $1.5 million, $3.2
million, and $12.5 million, respectively. There were no equivalent
instruments requiring fair value remeasurement for the three months
ended March 31, 2021.
Foreign Currency Exchange Loss.
Foreign currency exchange loss represents exchange rate gains and
losses related to all transactions denominated in a currency other
than our or our subsidiary’s functional currencies. Foreign
currency exchange loss was $1.1 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2022 compared to negligible expense in the three
months ended March 31, 2021, as there were few transactions in
foreign currencies in the prior period. We are subject to foreign
currency risk as we continue to expand our geographic
footprint.
Interest Income (Expense), net.
Interest income was negligible in the three months ended
March 31, 2022, compared to interest expense of $4.6 million
in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Interest expense
relates primarily to the convertible debt issued in February 2021
and is comprised primarily from changes in the fair value of the
embedded derivative associated with the automatic conversion
provision of the convertible notes. Upon close of the Business
Combination in July 2021, the convertible debt and accrued interest
converted into shares of common stock of the Company. There was no
debt outstanding during the three months ended March 31,
2022.
Income Tax Expense (Benefits).
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded
a net discrete tax expense of $0.5 million primarily associated
with the establishment of a deferred tax liability that is not
expected to offset available deferred tax assets. The Company has
cumulative net operating losses at the federal and state level and
maintains a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax
assets. We had no income tax expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2021.
Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests.
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests
represents results attributable to third parties in our operating
subsidiaries. Net loss is generally allocated based on such
ownership interests held by third parties with respect to each of
these entities.
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests was
$2.0 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The change in the
comparative periods is the result of increased activities in our
Netherlands joint venture and the creation of a joint venture in
Foshan, China in October 2021.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“U.S. GAAP”), we believe the following non-GAAP measures are
useful in evaluating our operational performance. We use the
following non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing
operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We
believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken
collectively, may be helpful to investors in assessing our
operating performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
“EBITDA” is defined as net loss before interest income or expense,
income tax expense or benefit, and depreciation and amortization.
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based
compensation expense, change in fair value of private placement
warrant liability, change in fair value of earnout liability,
change in fair value of equity securities and other special items
determined by management, if applicable. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
are intended as supplemental measures of our performance that are
neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP.
We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an
additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing
operating results and trends and in comparing our financial
measures with those of comparable companies, which may present
similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, you
should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA we
may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when
calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these
measures should not be construed as an inference that our future
results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our
computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other
similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all
companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same
fashion.
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not
be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance
measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We compensate for
these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and
using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You
should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to
evaluate our business.

EBITDA (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has incurred losses from operations since inception.
The Company incurred net losses of $11.0 million and $8.4 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Net cash used in operating activities was $29.2 million and $9.5
million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. As of March 31, 2022, we had $407.3 million in
unrestricted cash and positive working capital of $433.5 million.
The Business Combination closed on July 16, 2021, generated
proceeds of approximately $512.9 million of cash, net of
transaction costs and redemptions. We believe that our current cash
balance will provide adequate liquidity during the 12-month period
from the issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial
statements.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors,
including, but not limited to, the rate of our growth, our ability
to generate sufficient revenue from commercial vehicle sales and
leases to cover operating expenses, working capital expenditures,
and additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or
other developments, including supply chain challenges, disruptions
due to COVID-19, competitive pressures, and regulatory
developments, among other developments. Further, we may enter into
future arrangements to acquire or invest in businesses, products,
services, strategic partnerships, and technologies. As such, we may
be required to seek additional equity and/or debt financing. To the
extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity
or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our
stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may
include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the
rights of common stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would
result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operating
covenants that would restrict our operations. If we are unable to
maintain sufficient financial resources, our business, financial
condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely
affected.
Debt
As of March 31, 2022 we have no debt. The convertible notes and
accrued interest in the comparative period, were converted to
5,022,052 shares of common stock upon close of the Business
Combination.

Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and
March 31, 2021
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $29.2 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $9.5 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The cash flows used
in operating activities for the three months ended March 31,
2022 was primarily driven by a net loss of $11.0 million and
adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets
and liabilities. Non-cash gain adjustments consisted of changes in
fair value of the private placement warrant liability of $1.5
million, earnout liability of $3.2 million, and equity securities
of $12.5 million. These non-cash gain adjustments were partially
offset by $2.1 million stock-based compensation expense and $0.9
million in depreciation and amortization. Changes in operating
assets and liabilities were primarily driven by $1.6 million in
prepayments for vehicle inventory, production equipment, other
supplier deposits and D&O insurance, and a change of $6.9
million in inventory balances, offset by an increase in
accrued liabilities of $3.0 million and accounts receivable of $1.8
million. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months
ended March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by recording a net loss
of $8.4 million and adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes
in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash loss adjustments
primarily consisted of a noncash interest expense of $4.5 million.
These non-cash loss adjustments were partially offset by $7.0
million for prepayments for vehicle inventory, production
equipment, and other supplier deposits and $1.5 million in payables
and accrued liabilities.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $4.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $4.1 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of the
cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2022 were primarily driven by $0.4 million deposit
paid in advance for capital expenditures and $0.4 million cash paid
for property and equipment.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $3.4 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $44.6
million net cash provided by financing activities for the three
months ended March 31, 2021. The cash flows used in financing
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was
driven primarily by $3.1 million payment towards the Horizon IP
Agreement. The cash flows provided by financing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 2021 was driven primarily by
$45.0 million in proceeds from issuance of convertible
notes.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no material
changes outside the ordinary course of business within the
Contractual Obligations table as previously disclosed in our Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements,
transactions, obligations or other relationships with
unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material
current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of
operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing
financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions
are affected by management’s applications of accounting policies.
Certain policies are particularly important to the portrayal of our
financial position and results of operations and require the
application of significant judgment by management to determine
appropriate assumptions to be used in certain estimates; as a
result, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and
are considered critical. Accordingly, we believe the following
policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and
evaluating our financial condition and results of
operations.
There have been no substantial changes to these estimates, or the
policies related to them during the three months ended March 31,
2022. For a full discussion of these estimates and policies, see
"Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Item 7 of our
Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2021.
Emerging Growth Company Status
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth
companies from being required to comply with new or revised
financial accounting standards until private companies (that is,
those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement
declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or
revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that
a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period
and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth
companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. Hyzon
elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which
means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has
different application dates for public or private companies, Hyzon,
as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised
standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised
standard, until such time Hyzon is no longer considered to be an
emerging growth company. At times, Hyzon may elect to early adopt a
new or revised standard.
In addition, Hyzon intends to rely on the other exemptions and
reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to
certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an emerging
growth company, Hyzon intends to rely on such exemptions, Hyzon is
not required to, among other things: (a) provide an auditor’s
attestation report on Hyzon’s system of internal control over
financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (b) provide all of the compensation
disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public
companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act; (c) comply with any requirement that may be
adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding
mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s
report providing additional information about the audit and the
financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis); and
(d) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such
as the correlation between executive compensation and performance
and comparisons of the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation to
median employee compensation.
Hyzon will remain an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act
until the earliest of (a) the last day of Hyzon’s first fiscal
year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of DCRB’s
initial public offering, (b) the last date of Hyzon’s fiscal
year in which Hyzon has total annual gross revenue of at least
$1.07 billion, (c) the date on which Hyzon is deemed to
be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC with at
least $700.0 million of outstanding securities held by
non-affiliates or (d) the date on which Hyzon has issued more
than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during
the previous three years.
Material Transactions with Related Parties
Horizon IP Agreement
In January 2021, Hyzon entered into the Horizon IP Agreement with
JS Horizon, part of the Horizon group of companies, and in
September 2021 JS Powertrain was an added party to the agreement.
Pursuant to the agreement the parties convey to each other certain
rights in intellectual property relating to Hyzon’s core fuel cell
and mobility product technologies, under which Hyzon was to pay JS
Horizon and JS Powertrain a total fixed payment of $10 million. As
of March 31, 2022, the full $10 million has been paid, $6.9 million
was paid in 2021 and the remaining $3.1 million was paid in
February 2022.
Horizon Supply Agreement
In January 2021, Hyzon entered into a supply agreement with Jiangsu
Horizon New Energy Technologies Co. Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Horizon, to supply certain fuel cell components. In
March 31, 2021, the Company made a deposit payment to Horizon
in the amount of $5.0 million for long lead time components.
This payment is included in prepaid expenses as none of the
components have yet been received.
In addition, the Company made other deposit payments to purchase
fuel cell systems and components from Horizon and its
affiliates.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Cost of revenue of $0.1
million for fuel cell components purchased from Horizon and its
affiliates were recorded in the Company’s unaudited Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
Holthausen and Affiliates
The Company entered into a joint venture agreement in October 2020
to create Hyzon Europe with Holthausen. As Hyzon Europe builds out
its production facilities, it relies on Holthausen and its
affiliates for certain production resources that result in related
party transactions. In addition, both companies rely on certain
suppliers including Horizon.
The Company currently owns 50.5% of the equity interests of Hyzon
Europe. On December 31, 2021, Hyzon executed a non-binding Letter
of Intent (“LOI”) with Holthausen to increase its stake to 75% in
Hyzon Europe. Concurrent with the signing of this LOI,
€1 million refundable deposit was paid to Holthausen,
approximately $1.1 million in USD. This deposit is recorded in
the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets in Prepaid expenses and
other current assets.
On May 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement
(“SPA”) with Holthausen, whereby the Company agreed to purchase
735,000 shares Holthausen holds in Hyzon Europe. When the
transaction closes, the Company will own 75% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Hyzon Europe, and Holthausen will own 25%. As
part of the SPA, Holthausen agreed to transfer to Hyzon Europe all
of its shares of stock in Holthausen Clean Technology B.V, private
limited liability company registered in the Netherlands. The
Company agreed to a total purchase price of €27.0 million,
approximately $28.5 million in USD, in a combination of cash and
equity of the Company.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $0.1
million in director services to Carl Holthausen and Max Holthausen
as executives of Hyzon Europe.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has a
net related party receivable in the amount of $0.4 million and $0.3
million, respectively from Holthausen.
Item 3. Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under
the Exchange Act. As a result, pursuant to Item 305(e) of
Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information
required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and
Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to
be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls
and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will
prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls
and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can
provide only reasonable- not absolute - assurance that the
objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the
benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the
inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no
evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide
absolute assurance that we have detected all our control
deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of
disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be
no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. Based upon
this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective as of March 31, 2022, solely due to the material
weakness in internal control over financial reporting described
below. In light of this fact, our management has performed
additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing
procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material
weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the
unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods covered
by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly
present, in all material respects, our financial position, results
of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in
conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement
of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We identified a material weakness in our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Specifically, due to
our size and limited operating history, particularly prior to the
Business Combination, we had limited resources and did not have the
appropriate resources and business processes necessary to ensure
the appropriate segregation of duties and effective review
procedures with respect to the processing and recording of
financial transactions, as well as an appropriate level of control
oversight over the financial statement reporting
process.
Remediation Plans
The measures we have taken and continue to take to remediate the
identified material weakness and further evolving our accounting
processes include:
(i) hiring additional finance and accounting personnel over time to
augment our accounting staff and to provide more resources for
complex accounting matters and financial reporting;
(ii) further developing and implementing formal policies, processes
and documentation procedures relating to our financial reporting
and consulting with accounting experts;
(iii) engaging with external consultants with public company and
technical accounting experience to facilitate accurate and timely
accounting closes and to accurately prepare and review the
consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures.
We plan to retain these financial consultants, as needed, until
such time that the required financial controls have been fully
implemented; and
(iv) adopting new technological solutions.
The actions we are taking are subject to ongoing executive
management review and are also subject to audit committee
oversight. To date, we have hired additional financial and
accounting personnel with technical accounting experience and are
in the process of implementing new technology solutions to assist
with our financial reporting process. We are still executing an
assessment to identify process design gaps and implementing
additional controls to mitigate segregation of duty risk. We will
not be able to fully remediate this material weakness until these
steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a
sufficient period of time. If we are unable to successfully
remediate the material weakness, or if in the future, we identify
further material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting, we may not detect errors on a timely basis and our
consolidated financial statements may be materially
misstated.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than in connection with the implementation of the remedial
measures described above, there have not been any changes in our
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined
in Rules 13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the
three months to which this Quarterly Report relates that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information set forth under Note 11, to our unaudited
consolidated financial statements of this quarterly report on
Form 10-Q is incorporated by reference in answer to this item.
Such information is limited to certain recent
developments.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information discussed in this report,
please consider the factors described in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk
Factors” in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2021 that could materially affect our business,
financial condition or future results. There have not been any
material changes to the risk factors described in our Form 10-K,
but these are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional
risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we
currently deem to be immaterial also may adversely affect our
business, financial condition or operating results.
