−Removed: and a new Director of Channel
−Removed: Partnerships in Europe to drive growth in commercial and government sectors.
−Removed: The Company believes there continues to be a high level of
−Removed: support for funding EV charging infrastructure from both commercial and government entities, including a number of federal grants available
−Removed: under the Inflation Reduction Act.
−Removed: In addition, certain of our commercial customers may benefit from the Federal Solar Investment Tax
−Removed: Credit and accelerated depreciation as allowed under Section 179 of the IRS code which, we believe, provides a competitive advantage for
−Removed: our products over traditionally installed EV charging infrastructure which is not eligible for these incentives.
−Removed: Given these available
−Removed: incentives, we have invested in a federal lobbyist, a federal business development resource and a government relations employee, who have
−Removed: helped to identify opportunities and increase awareness of our product and outreach with federal agencies.
−Removed: In addition, the General Services
−Removed: Administration (GSA) awarded Beam Global a federal blanket purchase agreement in April 2022 which provides federal agencies a streamlined

Results of Operations
Comparison of Results of Operations for the
−Removed: Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
−Removed: For the quarter
−Removed: ended September 30, 2024, our revenues, though they were the second highest third quarter revenues in our history, decreased 30% to $11.5
−Removed: million compared to $16.5 million for the same period in 2023.
−Removed: Revenues to federal customers decreased by $7.5 million in Q2 2024 compared
−Removed: to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.
−Removed: During the first three months of 2024, revenues from California represented 21% of total revenues.
−Removed: We recorded revenues of $3.5 million as a result of our acquisition of Amiga and $67 thousand as a result of our acquisition of Telcom,
−Removed: demonstrating the positive contribution of our geographic expansions.
−Removed: Revenues derived from non-government commercial entities increased
−Removed: by 80% for the three months from 2023 to 2024 and were 11% of total revenues.
−Removed: The receipt of orders may continue to be uneven due to the
−Removed: timing of customer approvals or budget cycles, however, we believe that the diversification of our product offerings combined with our
−Removed: geographic expansions, recent hires and as EV adoption increases, our business will be less impacted by specific variations in order timing.
−Removed: Gross Profit.
−Removed: quarter ended September 30, 2024, our gross profit was $1.2 million, or 10.7% of sales, compared to a gross profit of $0.8 million or
−Removed: 1.7% of sales for the same period in 2023.
−Removed: The margin improved by 9 percentage points, primarily because we have implemented cost improvements
−Removed: in late 2023 as a result of design changes to the EV ARC TM as well as operational improvements and positive margins generated
−Removed: from the acquisition of Amiga.
−Removed: Additionally, 48.6% of ARC sales reflected the price increase implemented in 2024.
−Removed: Our gross profits included

−Removed: We began to see some improvements in the reduction of material costs in late 2023, which we believe should continue to improve.
−Removed: Our engineering
−Removed: and operations teams continue to identify further cost reductions and efficiencies which, along with support from our Serbian facilities,
−Removed: we believe will improve our gross margins in future quarters.
−Removed: Operating Expenses.
−Removed: operating expenses were a credit of $50 thousand, or (0.4%) of revenues, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to $4.0 million,
−Removed: or 24% of revenues, for the same quarter in the prior year.
−Removed: The $4.1 million decrease is mostly attributable to $6.1 million related to
−Removed: the non-cash change in fair value of contingent consideration for the Amiga acquisition, offset by non-cash warrants amortization increase
−Removed: of $0.2 million and stock compensation increase of $0.2 million, resulting in $1.7 million increase in operating expenses quarter over
−Removed: quarter mainly related to $1.2 million for operating expenses for Beam Europe, $0.3 million in customer service accommodation costs, $0.1
−Removed: million related to facility expansion and $0.1 million mainly for consulting for government relations and engineering.

−Removed: We continue to
−Removed: invest in sales employees, diversifying our product portfolio and expanding our geographic footprint to reduce our reliance on single
−Removed: large orders of our EV ARC™ product by federal agencies, although we believe that that opportunity still exists.
−Removed: The receipt of
−Removed: orders may continue to be uneven due to the timing of customer approvals or budget cycles, however we believe that as EV adoption increases
−Removed: and our new and existing products are brought to larger international audiences, our business will be less impacted by specific variations
−Removed: in order timing.
+Added: Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

−Removed: $0.3 million, stock compensation $0.3 million, bad debt allowance $0.4 million resulting in $3.3 million increase in operating expenses.
−Removed: The increase is mainly related to $2.1 million for operating expenses for Beam Europe, $0.4 million for facility expansion, $0.3 million
−Removed: commissions due to earned at time of customer payment, $0.3 million in customer accommodation service costs and $0.2 million related to
−Removed: acquisition costs.
