[10-Q] Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report
Capstone Green Energy Holdings (CGEH) reported improved quarterly results. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, revenue rose to $28.4 million from $22.7 million, driven by Product and Accessories $16.1 million, Parts and Services $7.9 million, and Rentals $4.4 million. Gross profit increased to $9.0 million, and operating income reached $1.4 million, resulting in net income of $0.8 million. Year‑to‑date revenue was $56.3 million versus $38.4 million a year ago. The company completed the acquisition of Cal Microturbine on August 13, 2025, which contributed to customer concentration and accounts receivable growth.
Liquidity remains constrained with a going concern warning. Cash was $7.7 million, including $0.7 million restricted, and working capital showed a $14.2 million deficit as of September 30, 2025. Exit Notes outstanding totaled $33.2 million, including $7.0 million of Exit New Money Notes that mature on December 7, 2025; management states it does not expect internally generated cash or typical public financing methods to satisfy those obligations. Redeemable noncontrolling interests (Preferred Units) were remeasured to $32.0 million, and operating cash flow used $1.0 million in the first half. Management outlines cost reductions, pricing, and sales initiatives but notes uncertainty around refinancing the upcoming maturity.

1. Business and Organization
Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc., the successor to Capstone Green Energy Corporation, along with its consolidated operating subsidiary Capstone Green Energy LLC (the “Operating Subsidiary”) is a provider of customized microgrid solutions, on-site resilient Energy-as-a-Service (“EaaS”) solutions, and on-site energy technology systems focused on helping customers around the globe solve the “Energy Trilemma” of resiliency, sustainability, and affordability. These solutions include stationary distributed power generation applications and distribution networks, including cogeneration (combined heat and power (“CHP”), integrated combined heat and power (“ICHP”), and combined cooling, heat and power (“CCHP”), renewable energy, natural resources, and critical power supply. The Company’s inverter-based technologies solve resiliency by being able to seamlessly connect to the electric grid or be the backbone of a localized microgrid. The Company’s Energy Conversion Products business line is driven by the Company’s industry-leading, highly efficient, low-emission, resilient microturbine energy systems offering scalable solutions in addition to a broad range of customer-tailored solutions. Through the EaaS business line, the Company offers build, own, operate and maintain (“BOOM”) as well as energy rental solutions utilizing the Company’s microturbine energy systems. The Company offers comprehensive service agreement plans which de-risk life-cycle costs, as well as providing aftermarket spare parts to customers not under the service agreement umbrella.
As a result of past delays in filing the Company’s periodic reports with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the requirements relating to Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”), the Company was unable to comply with the Nasdaq listing standards, and as a result, the Company’s common stock was suspended from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market effective October 5, 2023 and formally delisted effective October 23, 2023. Post completion of the financial statement restatements for Fiscal 2022 and 2023 and completion of the filings for Fiscal 2024, the Company became current with all periodic filings with the SEC. On January 2, 2025, the Company’s common stock was approved for trading by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority on the over-the-counter market (“OTC”). On September 26, 2025, the trading of the Company’s common stock was approved for trading on the OTCQX Best Market.
All references in these footnotes to “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Capstone” are to Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
2. Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2025, was derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. Results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full year. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on June 27, 2025. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) refers to the Company’s fiscal years ending March 31 as its Fiscal years.
Basis for Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this filing include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Subsidiary, Capstone Turbine Financial Services, LLC, its wholly owned subsidiary formed in October 2015, and Cal Microturbine LLC (“Cal Microturbine”) after elimination of inter-company transactions.
Reclassification Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation and provide comparability but have no effect on the reported financial statements.

Table of Contents
Significant Accounting Policies Except as described below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year 2025 filed with the SEC, that have had a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 19 – Business Combinations in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on our acquisition of Cal Microturbine.
Going Concern In connection with the preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, management evaluated whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the financial statements. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $
The Exit New Money Notes will mature on December 7, 2025 (see Note 8 – Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion). The Company does not expect to have sufficient internally generated cash, nor does the Company expect that it could obtain sufficient financing through underwritten public offerings, at-the market offerings or other similar methods, to satisfy the obligations of the Exit New Money Notes. If the Company is unable to repay the obligations of the Exit New Money Notes on the maturity date, it will be in default under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 8 – Debt), which may result in, among other things, default interest or an acceleration of all obligations. It is not certain whether the Company will have, or will be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make any such accelerated payments. If any outstanding indebtedness under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement is accelerated, the Company’s assets may not be sufficient to repay such indebtedness. . The Company and its advisors are considering various alternatives to address the upcoming maturity of the Exit New Money Notes, which may include issuances of equity or the incurrence of additional indebtedness; however there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in refinancing the Exit New Money Notes.
Given the Company’s current cash position, lack of liquidity, short term debt repayments, limits to accessing capital and debt funding options, and current economic and market risks, there exists
A robust plan to improve the Company’s future financial performance has been developed. The plan includes multiple process improvement workstreams directed to drive operational and financial performance. The process improvement initiatives are supported with external resources as needed for a specific level of expertise. The plan includes cost reduction in products, services and operating expenses, additional margin expansion through price increases, and sales volume initiatives focused on improving the Company’s liquidity. Achieving the targeted product cost reductions has risk, and is being challenged by the current geopolitical environment, including the impact of tariffs. There is no guarantee that such steps will be successful or result in our ability to meet our payment obligations coming due within the twelve-month period after the date of this report.
3. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740), which requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendment in the ASU is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, early adoption is permitted. We are
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The guidance was further clarified for the effective date by ASU 2025-01. The new guidance requires disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items on an annual and interim basis. This guidance will be effective for all public business entities for fiscal years beginning after

Table of Contents
December 15, 2026, and for interim within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, early adoption is permitted. This would be effective for the Company in Fiscal 2028 and for interim reporting periods beginning with the first quarter of Fiscal 2029. We are
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The guidance provides an optional practical expedient when applying the guidance related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets resulting from transactions arising from contracts with customers. The amendments in ASU 2025-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact of the standard on the consolidated financial statements.
4. Customer Concentrations and Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivables are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of estimated credit losses. The Company applies the aging method by pooling receivables based on levels of delinquency and applying historical loss rates on what has been historically uncollectible by aging categories. The historical loss rate is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future losses, as necessary. Additionally, the allowance for credit loss calculation includes subjective adjustments for qualitative risk factors that could likely cause estimated credit losses to differ from historical experience. The factors include assessments of various economic conditions, significant events that have or will occur, geographic location, size and credit ratings of the customers.

10. Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenues primarily from the sale of microturbine products, accessories, parts, equipment rentals and services.
The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
| ● | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer |
| ● | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract |
| ● | Determination of the transaction price |
| ● | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract |
| ● | Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation |
Microturbine Products The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligation identified under the terms of the contract with its customer is satisfied, which generally occurs, for microturbine products, upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. The majority of the Company’s revenue associated with a microturbine product is recognized at a point in time when the microturbine product is shipped to the customer. On occasion, the Company enters into bill-and-hold arrangements. Each bill-and-hold arrangement is reviewed and revenue is recognized only when certain criteria have been met: (i) the reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement is substantive; (ii) the product is segregated from the Company’s other inventory items held for sale; (iii) the product is ready for shipment to the customer; and (iv) the Company does not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer.
Advanced payments in the form of customer deposits are received on these contracts, typically providing for a substantial portion of the contract value to be paid prior to shipment. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as they are typically received less than one year before the related performance obligations are satisfied. Payment terms in contracts with customers typically are
Accessories and Parts The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations identified under the terms of contracts with its customers are satisfied, which generally occurs, for accessories, upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. The revenue associated with accessories is recognized at a point in time when the accessory is shipped to the customer.

Table of Contents
Warranty Services Revenue from extended warranties is recognized when or as the obligations are satisfied. There are two types of warranties: standard (assurance) and extended warranties. Standard warranties do not represent separate performance obligations but are reflected as a liability associated with the purchase of the product. Extended warranties are separate offerings for
Factory Protection Plan and Service Cost Reimbursement In addition to the provision of standard warranties, the Company offers Factory Protection Plans (“FPP”) to minimize product downtime and control maintenance costs to ensure the microturbine system will operate when needed and perform as intended at the lowest cost of ownership. Revenue related to the Company’s performance obligation to provide replacement parts as needed is recognized over the term of the FPP contract, in
Comprehensive FPP service contracts require payment at the beginning of the contract period. Advance payments are not considered a significant financing component as they are typically received less than one year before the related performance obligations are satisfied. These payments are a contract liability and are classified as deferred revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The performance obligation is fulfilled as the control passes to the customer through the passage of time and recognition of deferred revenue from the FPP contracts is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The deferred revenue relating to the annual maintenance service contracts is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the contract.
Some FPPs offer labor reimbursement on the labor performed on a microturbine system. Due to the nature of the arrangement, labor reimbursements are accounted for under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 460 and are recognized as contra revenue as consideration paid to a customer under ASC 606. An Authorized Service Provider (“ASP”) must perform the labor. ASPs submit claims for labor reimbursements and are credited for the cost of labor if the repairs meet the Company’s prescribed standards. The Company is unable to develop a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential payout under these arrangements because the FPP contracts do not contain a limit on the number of labor reimbursements that may be submitted. However, given historical practice, the Company has priced the FPP to cover all costs incurred related to the labor reimbursement and is not exposed to significant losses over the FPP premium.
The labor reimbursement is separate and distinct from the parts offering; therefore, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to the labor reimbursement based on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). The Company applies judgment in determining the SSP as the labor reimbursement is not sold separately. The Company will recognize a liability at the inception of the executed FPP agreement for the premium received in advance for the Labor offering. Income will be recognized on a net, straight-line basis with labor reimbursement costs recognized when incurred.
Rentals The Company accounts for leases to customers in accordance with lessor accounting under ASC 842. The Company utilizes a portfolio approach by grouping together many similar assets being leased to a single customer. Leases are classified as either sales-type leases or operating leases. The Company’s leases are classified as a sale-type lease if one of the five criteria per the guidance are met. Other leases are classified as operating leases.
For sales-type leases, upon lease commencement, the Company records and presents as a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the present value of the lease payments as a lease receivable, along with the residual asset discounted using the rate implicit in the lease. Revenue is recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the amount of the lease receivable as part of Product and Accessories revenue and the cost of sales in the amount of the carrying value of the underlying asset less the unguaranteed residual asset. The Company believes this is generally more aligned to its current presentation of product sales. After the commencement date, the Company recognizes the imputed interest income as part of the net sales using the effective interest method.
16
Table of Contents
For operating leases, the Company recognizes the underlying assets as rental lease assets. The asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis to its estimated residual value over the estimated useful life. The lease payments are recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis as part of Rental Revenue.
Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations
The Company enters into contracts with its customers that often include promises to transfer multiple products, parts, accessories, FPP parts and services. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer products or services that are distinct. Determining whether products and services are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately or combined as one unit of accounting may require significant judgment.
Products, parts and accessories are distinct as such services are often sold separately. In determining whether FPP and service contracts are distinct, the Company considers the following factors for each FPP and services agreement: availability of the services from other vendors, the nature of the services, the timing of when the services contract was signed in comparison to the product delivery date and the contractual dependence of the product on the customer’s satisfaction with the professional services work. To date, the Company has concluded that all of the FPP and services contracts included in contracts with multiple performance obligations are distinct.
The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a SSP basis. The SSP is the price at which the Company would sell a promised product or service separately to a customer. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation.
The Company determines SSP by considering its overall pricing objectives and market conditions. Significant pricing practices taken into consideration include the Company’s discounting practices, the size and volume of the Company’s transactions, the customer demographic, the geographic area where systems and services are sold, price lists, its go-to-market strategy, historical sales and contract prices. The determination of SSP is made through consultation with and approval by the Company’s management, taking into consideration the go-to-market strategy. As the Company’s go-to-market strategies evolve, the Company may modify its pricing practices in the future, which could result in changes to SSP.
In certain cases, the Company may be able to establish SSP based on observable prices of products or services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar customers. The Company uses a single amount to estimate SSP when it has observable prices.
If SSP is not directly observable, for example when pricing is highly variable, the Company may use a range of SSP. The Company determines the SSP range using information that may include market conditions or other observable inputs. The Company typically has more than one SSP for individual products and services due to the stratification of those products and services by customer size and geography.

Contract Balances
The Company’s deferred revenues consist of deposits and advance payments for microturbine products, parts, accessories and parts ordered under sales contracts, which have not yet been delivered (contract liabilities), as well as advance payments on service obligations, FPP contracts and extended warranties. Deposits are primarily non-refundable cash payments from distributors for future orders. The current portion of deferred revenue and the non-current portion of deferred revenue are included in the Current Liabilities and Long-Term Liabilities, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Redeemable Preferred Units
Redeemable noncontrolling interests are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as Temporary Equity.
On December 7, 2023, in connection with the reorganization, the Operating Subsidiary issued
The Preferred Units also provide the holder with the option to convert all or less than all of the Preferred Units into Operating Subsidiary Common Units (“Common Units”) at any time and from time to time without the payment of additional consideration. If the holder elects to convert the Preferred Units, the specified number of Preferred Units to be converted will be divided by the total number of Preferred Units then outstanding times
Additionally, the Preferred Units provide the holder with a put option to sell the shares to the Operating Subsidiary and the liquidation preference provides the holder with the option to exchange the Preferred Units for cash.
Management’s initial valuation of the Preferred Units was made under ASC 480-10-S99-3A and is specifically determined by the ‘redemption value’. This initial value was established using a fair value methodology, to establish the initial redemption value per the terms of the Capstone Green Energy LLC Agreement. The initial fair value of $

Subsequent measurement under ASC 480-10-S99-3A for the redemption value follows the definition of redemption value as per the Capstone Green Energy LLC Agreement, which has been defined as greater of 1) the share price of CGEH shares (if CGEH is publicly traded), with appropriate adjustments for customary and appropriate factors, or 2) the Aggregate Purchase Price plus declared but unpaid dividends, the ‘maximum redemption value’. The subsequent measurement based on the redemption value method should not result in an amount that is less than the initial recorded value of $
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s Common Stock is publicly trading and the Preferred Units are not currently redeemable. The Company will measure the maximum redemption value at the end of each accounting period, which is based on the Company’s Common Stock value at period end. The closing value of CGEH stock was $
At each reporting period, the Company remeasures the redemption value of the Preferred Units and adjusts the carrying value, if that value exceeds the initial fair value, to equal the maximum redemption value to retained earnings. The initial fair value measurement was $
12. Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company has common and non-voting common stock outstanding. The non-voting common stock has the same economic rights as the common stock; therefore, earnings per share is presented on a combined basis. Basic income (loss) available to stock holders is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and non-voting common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed without consideration of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options, restricted stock units and warrants if the Company produced a loss, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, the change in the carrying value of the Preferred Units is excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there was no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss available to stock holders.

14. Fair Value Measurements
The FASB has established a framework for measuring fair value using GAAP. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:
Level 1. Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2. Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
| ● | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets |
| ● | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets |
| ● | Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability |
| ● | Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means |
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3. Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
21
Table of Contents
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Basis for Valuation
The carrying values reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value at each reporting period and include the Company’s Preferred Units. The Company used the BSM model (Level 3) with standard valuation inputs to initially value the Preferred Units on December 7, 2023. Refer to Note 11— Temporary Equity.

Mark Estrada and Ricardo Montalvo, vs. Capstone Green Energy LLC and Erick Kim
In August 2024, two filings were made by lawyers on behalf of current and former non-exempt Capstone employees against Capstone and one supervisory employee. Both filings allege various pay violations. The first action, filed with the Superior Court of the State of California, requested that the Court certify the employees as a Class. Capstone has arbitration agreements in place with those current and former employees, agreements which include a class action waiver. Accordingly, Capstone moved that the Court compel arbitration, which Plaintiffs opposed. At a hearing in January 2025, the Court determined that the arbitration agreements were enforceable. Then in April 2025, the Court determined that the employees were not entitled to exemption from the enforcement of the arbitration agreements under the Federal Arbitration Act. The Court ordered the plaintiffs to arbitration. To date, the plaintiffs have not filed their claims in arbitration. The action is stayed until the plaintiffs file and complete arbitration.
Plaintiffs filed a separate action asserting the same claims under the Private Attorney General Act with the Superior Court of the State of California on September 22, 2025.

18. Segment Information
The Company has a single reportable segment: microturbine systems and their related parts, rentals and services. The Company is one line of business that provides for the development, manufacture, sale and rental of turbine generator sets and their related parts and services to customers. The Company derives revenue primarily in North America and the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company defines its CODM as the Chief Executive Officer.
The CODM assesses performance for the single reportable segment under a GAAP basis of accounting, consistent with the basis of presentation in our financial statements and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net loss. This measure is used to monitor performance which is compared to prior periods and forecasted results to support operational efficiencies and business expansion. The CODM does not evaluate its reportable segment using asset or liability information. There are no intra-equity sales or transfers between the reporting units within the consolidated entity.
The following table presents the Company’s information about reported segment revenue, segment gross profit, segment profit or loss and significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Company’s CODM as a single reporting segment and a reconciliation of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (in thousands):

The Company accounted for this acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), which requires, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date. Any excess of consideration to be transferred over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill.

Table of Contents
Determining the fair values of the assets and liabilities of Cal Microturbine requires judgment and certain assumptions to be made, the most significant of these being related to the valuation of Cal Microturbine’s customer relationships. Cal Microturbine’s customer relationship assets were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method, with significant assumptions including projected revenue, attrition rate, operating expense, selling and general administrative expenses, and discount rate. Because the valuation relies on these company-specific forecasts and assumptions rather than observable market data, the fair value measurement for customer relationships is categorized as a Level 3 measurement in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.
As of the date of this filing, the Company performed the preliminary analysis to assign fair value to all tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As such, the preliminary purchase price allocation will be subject to further refinement and may change. The Company expects to finalize the fair value measurements as soon as practicable, but no later than 12 months from the Closing Date.

The supplemental pro forma financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and is based on the historical financial information of Capstone and Cal Microturbine. The supplemental pro forma financial information does not necessarily represent what the combined companies’ revenue or results of operations would have been had the Cal Microturbine acquisition been completed on April 1, 2024, nor is it intended to be a projection of future operating results of the combined company. It also does not reflect any operating efficiencies or potential cost savings that might be achieved from synergies of combining Capstone and Cal Microturbine.
Cal Microturbine’s fiscal year end is December 31, which differs from Capstone’s year-end. To ensure comparability, the pro forma financial information was prepared using comparable reporting periods. Cal Microturbine’s financial data was derived from internally generated, unaudited reports. Certain estimates were applied to allocate revenues and expenses appropriately across the periods presented in the pro forma results.
The unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information reflects pro forma adjustments related to transaction expenses incurred by Capstone and Cal Microturbine, elimination of revenue and expenses between the Capstone and Cal Micro, amortization expense due to step-up in fair value of the acquired assets, interest expense, and income tax adjustments (in thousands). The pro forma earnings below for the 2025 period were adjusted to exclude costs associated with the acquisition that were recognized in SG&A and pro forma earnings for the 2024 period was adjusted to include these charges.

Overview
Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc., the successor to Capstone Green Energy Corporation along with its consolidated operating subsidiary, Capstone Green Energy LLC (the “Operating Subsidiary”), is a provider of customized microgrid solutions, on-site resilient Energy-as-a-Service (“EaaS”) solutions, and on-site energy technology systems focused on helping customers around the globe solve the “Energy Trilemma” of resiliency, sustainability, and affordability. These solutions include stationary distributed power generation applications and distribution networks, including cogeneration (combined heat and power (“CHP”), integrated combined heat and power (“ICHP”), and combined cooling, heat and power (“CCHP”), renewable energy, natural resources, and critical power supply.
We are a market leader in microturbine energy systems based on the number of microturbines sold annually and total installed base. Generally, power purchased from the electric utility grid is less costly than power produced by distributed generation technologies in simple cycle mode. Utilities may also charge fees to interconnect with their power grids. However, when considering and including the waste heat from our microturbine (CHP and CCHP) the economic benefit improves significantly. Further, our highly efficient, low emission, resilient technology can produce thermal energy at a lower carbon footprint. These benefits can be enhanced when fuel costs are low, where the costs of connecting to the grid may be high or impractical (such as remote power applications or new grid services need to be provided), where reliability and power quality are of critical importance, or in situations where peak shaving could be economically advantageous because of highly variable electricity prices. Our microturbines are an inverter-based technology and can be interconnected to other distributed energy resources to form “microgrids” (also called “distribution networks”) located within a specific geographic area and provide power to a group of buildings. Because our microturbines can provide a reliable source of power and can operate on multiple fuel sources, management believes they help solve the “Energy Trilemma” of resiliency, sustainability and affordability. Management also believes our products and services offer a level of flexibility not currently offered by other technologies such as reciprocating engines. We are currently exploring energy conversion options for the smaller end of the power spectrum.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we had a net income of $0.8 million, accretion of dividends of Preferred Units of $18.2 million, basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.89, compared to net loss of $0.4 million, no change in Preferred Units and basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.02 during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The $1.3 million change in net income was primarily due to improved gross profit of $2.0 million, driven by the impacts of price increases and lower unit costs, offset by $0.6 million higher total operating expenses, a $0.1 million decrease in other income and a $0.1 million increase in interest expense as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
In the energy markets, we continue to expand our presence in the energy efficiency, natural resources, renewable energy, critical power, and microgrid power type of applications in the first half of Fiscal 2026. The microgrid market is for electrification demand. The renewable energy market is fueled by landfill gas, biodiesel and biogas from sources such as food processing, agricultural waste and livestock manure. Our product sales in the oil and gas and other natural resources market is driven by our microturbines’ reliability, emissions profile and ease of installation. Given the continued volatility of the oil and gas market, our business strategy is to continue diversification within the microgrid energy efficiency and renewable energy markets.

As part of our diversification strategy, we have begun to utilize our microgrid solutions into a reference design package for AI and Data Center infrastructure. On October 21, 2025, we released a press release announcing that the Company has developed a new 800-volt direct-current (“VDC”) microturbine to support NVIDIA’s new AI Infrastructure requirements. With the Company’s compute partner, Microgrid for AI (“MG4AI), the Company can now provide power and cooling plus compute as an engineered equipment package as “on-site power to chip” for the next generation of AI factories. Refer to Risk Factors (Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q) for further discussion of the risks associated with AI-related investments.
We continue to focus on improving our products based on customer input, building brand awareness and bringing new channels to market by developing a diversified network of strategic distribution partners. Our focus is on products and solutions that provide near-term and longer-term opportunities to drive repeatable business and larger deal size rather than discrete projects for niche markets. In addition, management closely monitors operating expenses and strives to improve manufacturing efficiencies while simultaneously lowering direct material costs and increasing average selling prices. The key drivers to our success are higher average selling prices, lower direct material costs, positive new order flow, reduced cash usage and expansion of the EaaS business.
Backlog Net product orders were approximately $6.2 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Ending backlog was approximately $14.8 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $10.6 million at September 30, 2024. The book-to-bill ratio was 0.4:1 and 0.8:1 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Book-to-bill ratio is the ratio of new orders we received to units shipped and billed during a period.
The timing of the backlog is based on the requirement date indicated by our customers and part availability. However, based on historical experience, management expects that a portion of our backlog may not be shipped within the next 12 months. Additionally, the timing of shipments is subject to change based on several variables (including customer deposits, payments, availability of credit and customer delivery schedule changes), most of which are not within our control and can affect the timing of our revenue. As a result, management believes the book-to-bill ratio reflects the current demand for our products in the given period.
We believe that effective execution in each of these key areas will be necessary to leverage our promising technology and early market leadership into achieving positive cash flow with growing market presence and improving financial performance.
We currently occupy warehouse and office space in Costa Mesa, California and office space and a production facility in Van Nuys, California with a production capacity of approximately 2,000 units per year, depending on product mix.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and related disclosures of contingent liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related to credit losses, inventories, warranty obligations, redeemable noncontrolling interest valuation and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates and assumptions which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 describes the significant accounting estimates used in the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased $5.7 million to $28.4 million from $22.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases in revenue of $5.7 million in the United States and Canada, $2.4 million in Europe and $0.6 million in Asia and Australia, offset by a decrease in revenue of $2.8 million in Latin America and $0.2 million in Middle East and Africa. The increases in the United States and Canada, Latin America and Europe were due to increased microturbine product, parts and rental demand. The decrease in Europe, Asia and Australia were primarily due to decreases in microturbine deliveries for projects in those regions during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, revenue from microturbine products and accessories increased $4.8 million, or 42%, to $16.1 million from $11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The $4.8 million increase was driven primarily by an increase in product demand, with the 4.3 megawatts increase in shipments during the three months ended September 30, 2025, including increased demand for our C1000 turbines, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Average revenue per megawatt shipped was approximately $1.4 million and $1.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in revenue per megawatt is mainly due to product mix of microturbine configurations.
Parts and service revenue, which are part of our EaaS business line and includes revenue from our spare parts shipments, FPP contracts, and other service revenue of $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was comparable at $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Rentals revenue for three months ended September 30, 2025 increased $0.9 million or 26%, to $4.4 million from $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was driven by an increase in rental utilization and increased rental prices.
Sales to E-Finity Distributed Generation (“E-Finity”), Cal Microturbine, LLC (“Cal Microturbine”) and Lone Star Power Solutions, LLC (“Lone Star”), three of the Company’s domestic distributors, accounted for 36%, 13% and 10% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. On August 13, 2025, the Company completed its acquisition of Cal Microturbine. E-Finity, Arctic Energy Inc. (“Arctic”) and Lone Star Power Solutions, LLC (“Lone Star”), three of the Company’s domestic distributors, and GET/CWS Limited, one of the Company’s international customers, accounted for 21%, 14%, 10% and 11% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

Gross ProfitCost of goods sold includes direct material costs, production and service center labor and overhead, inventory charges and provision for estimated product warranty expenses. Gross profit was $9.0 million, or 32% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a gross profit of $7.0 million, or 31% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in product sales volume and the full effect of an increase in pricing and decreases in production and service center labor and overhead expenses. Effective July 2024, we increased our sales prices and we are continually negotiating to reduce material costs with vendors.

an increase in cash of $0.6 million during the six months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in cash during the six months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to net cash used in operating activities.

The $6.4 million increase in use of cash in accounts receivable resulted from the timing of sales in the six months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2024. The $2.8 million decrease in cash provided by inventory is due to higher shipment at quarter-end. The $1.7 million increase in cash provided by accounts payable resulted from the timing of payment of trade accounts. The $0.5 million increase in cash provided by accrued expenses was primarily due to an increase in the AIP bonus accrual compared to no bonus accrual in the six months ended September 30, 2024. The $0.4 million decrease in use of cash by operating lease liability was primarily due to a decrease in lease liability. The $1.5 million decrease in cash provided from prepaid and other assets is primarily the result of usage of prepaid inventory. The $2.5 million increase in cash provided by FFP liability was primary driven by an increase in value of new claims outpacing the fulfillment of claims. The $0.3 million increase in cash used in other operating assets and liabilities, was primarily driven by an increase in cash used in deferred revenue of $0.2 million primarily driven by increased shipments in the six months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2024, lowering related customer deposits.
Investing Activities Net cash provided in investing activities was $1.0 million during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and was primarily due to cash acquired in acquisitions net of cash paid. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million during the six months ended September 30, 2024, and was primarily due to investments in operating and rental fleet assets.
Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities of $1.0 million and $0.1 million during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was primarily used for repayment of finance lease obligations. Additionally, during the six months ended September 30, 2025, treasury stock was accumulated as a result of the tax withholdings of employee stock vesting.

Going Concern In connection with the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended September 30, 2025, management evaluated whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the financial statements. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $7.7 million, which includes restricted cash of $0.7 million, and a working capital deficit of $14.2 million. The Company had net income of $0.8 million and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
A robust plan to improve the Company’s future financial performance has been developed. The plan includes multiple process improvement workstreams directed to drive operational and financial performance. The process improvement initiatives are supported with external resources as needed for a specific level of expertise. The plan includes cost reduction in products, services and operating expenses, margin expansion through price increases, and sales volume initiatives focused on improving the Company’s liquidity. Achieving the targeted product cost reductions has risk, and is being challenged by the current geopolitical environment, including the impact of tariffs. There is no guarantee that such steps will be successful, or to result in our ability to meet our payment obligations coming due within the twelve month period after the date of this report.
The Company and its advisors are considering various alternatives to address the upcoming maturity of the Exit New Money Notes, which may include issuances of equity or the incurrence of additional indebtedness; however there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in refinancing the Exit New Money Notes.
Given the Company’s current cash position, lack of liquidity, short term debt repayments, limits to accessing capital and debt funding options and current economic and market risks, there exists substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and its ability to meet its financial obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of the financial statements as of, and for the period ended September 30, 2025.
New Accounting Pronouncements Refer to Note 3— Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q) for information regarding new accounting standards.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in and pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our financial reporting controls and procedures were not effective.
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position and consolidated

results from operations and cash flows for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, and our financial condition as of each such date and have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our CEO and CFO and effected by our Board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2025 because of the material weakness described below.
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 a company’s annual and interim financial statements will not be detected or prevented on a timely basis. The following material weakness was identified:
| ● | We did not design and maintain effective controls over financial reporting related to the proper accounting, presentation and disclosure for FPP service contracts, including controls relating to the relevant information technology systems used in this process. |
Management’s Remediation Plan
Management, with the direction and oversight of the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors, is engaged in remediation actions to address the material weakness described above. The Company’s remediation actions include, but are not limited to the following:
| ● | Management has reviewed and refined the Company’s current accounting memorandums related to FPP service contracts to address the proper financial reporting considerations. Additionally, management is enhancing the design of and implementing controls over financial reporting for FPP service contracts, including controls over the Information Technology systems specifically used in Company’s process for receiving notice of FPP claims. |
We believe these measures will remediate the material weakness, but management is assessing the need for any additional steps to remediate the underlying causes that gave rise to this weakness. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. There is no assurance that additional remediation steps will not be necessary.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13d-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Refer to Note 17 – Commitments and Contingencies — Legal Matters, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q) for information regarding legal proceedings in which we are involved. The Company is from time to time a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company and certain of its former and current directors and officers are party to several material legal proceedings. The outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were to be resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, together with the cautionary statement under the caption “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The risks described are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
There is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, and this may adversely affect the Company's stock price and the Company's ability to raise capital.
In connection with the preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, management evaluated whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the financial statements. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $7.7 million and a working capital deficit of $14.2 million. The Company had net income of $0.8 million and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
The Exit New Money Notes (as defined in Note 8 – Debt) will mature on December 7, 2025 (see Note 8 – Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion). The Company does not expect to have sufficient internally generated cash, nor does the Company expect that it could obtain sufficient financing through underwritten public offerings, at-the market offerings or other similar methods, to satisfy the obligations of the Exit New Money Notes. If the Company is unable to repay the obligations of the Exit New Money Notes on the maturity date, it will be in default under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 8 – Debt), which may result in, among other things, default interest or an acceleration of all obligations. It is not certain whether the Company will have, or will be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make any such accelerated payments. If any outstanding indebtedness under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement is accelerated, the Company’s assets may not be sufficient to repay such indebtedness.
The Company and its advisors are considering various alternatives to address the upcoming maturity of the Exit New Money Notes, which may include issuances of equity or the incurrence of additional indebtedness; however there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in refinancing the Exit New Money Notes.
Given the Company’s current cash position, lack of liquidity, short term debt maturity, limits to accessing capital and debt funding options, and current economic and market risks, there exists substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and its ability to meet its financial obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of the financial statements as of, and for the period ended September 30, 2025. The substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern may affect the price of the Company's common stock and the grade of its credit rating, may negatively impact relationships with third parties with whom the Company does business, including customers, vendors and lenders, may impact the Company's ability to raise additional capital or implement its business plan.
The Exit Note Purchase Agreement, as amended, defines an event of default as, among other things, payment default, bankruptcy events, cross defaults, breaches of covenants and representations and warranties, changes of control, and judgment defaults. An event of default, if not waived, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In the event the Company fails to meet its obligations to repay the Exit New Money Notes, the collateral agent under the Exit Note Purchase Agreement, may enforce any and all liens and security interests on the collateral the Company has used to secure the Notes and the Company may forfeit its right to such collateral.

There are uncertainties and risks related to the profitability, safety and regulatory environment of AI that could adversely affect our business and operations.
In order to position ourselves to take advantage of growth opportunities, we have made, and may continue to make, investments, strategic acquisitions, mergers, partnership, joint ventures and alliances related to AI-infrastructure and data centers that involve significant risks and uncertainties. The Company has only recently begun to pursue initiatives in AI related technologies and has not made any sales to AI infrastructure clients. Some of the Company’s competitors, including competitors that have significantly greater resources, have already successfully generated revenues from AI business lines. AI technologies and their uses are currently evolving rapidly. If the Company fails to successfully integrate its products in AI infrastructure or develop new products in response to changes in technology or industry standards, or the Company fails to bring product enhancements or new product developments to market quickly enough, the Company’s products could rapidly become less competitive or obsolete for use in the development of AI infrastructure. Thus, the future profitability of any AI-related investments is highly uncertain and such investments may adversely affect our business and operations.
The regulatory landscape surrounding AI is also evolving rapidly, and we anticipate increased scrutiny and potential regulation in the near and long term. If we continue to invest in utilizing our products for the development of AI data centers and other AI infrastructure, then any such developments may significantly impact our business and operations in ways that are difficult to predict. Governments and regulatory bodies are considering measures to ensure the responsible development and deployment of AI systems, including transparency, accountability, and fairness guidelines. The amount of energy used for AI has also received significant attention, and it is expected that energy efficiency and sustainability will be critical factors regulating AI data centers.
