Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (“ChargePoint” or the “Company,” “it,” “its”) designs, develops, and markets networked electric vehicle (“EV”) charging system infrastructure and cloud-based services which enable consumers the ability to locate, reserve, authenticate, and transact charging sessions for EVs. As part of its networked charging systems, subscriptions, and other offerings, the Company provides an open platform that integrates with system hardware from multiple manufacturers, connecting systems over an intelligent network that provides real-time information about charging systems. This network provides multiple web-based portals for charging system owners, fleet managers, drivers, and utilities. The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. References to fiscal year 2021 relate to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2021 and to fiscal year 2022 refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022. Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021 and the related notes included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021 and as amended and filed with the SEC on April 1, 2021, which provides a more complete discussion of the Company’s accounting policies and certain other information. The information as of January 31, 2021 included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2021 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020. The results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 2022. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, the realization of assets, and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in developing its product offerings, raising capital, and recruiting personnel. The Company’s operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown and there can be no assurance that the current operating plan will be achieved in the time frame anticipated by the Company, and it may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. If adequate funds are not available to the Company on a timely basis, it may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate certain commercial efforts, or pursue merger or acquisition strategies, all of which could adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s stockholders. The Company has incurred net operating losses and negative cash flows from operations in every year since inception and expects this to continue for the foreseeable future. As of April 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $597.1 million. The Company has funded its operations primarily with proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock, borrowings under its loan facilities, customer payments and proceeds from the Reverse Recapitalization (as defined below). The Company had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $610.2 million as of April 30, 2021. As of June 11, 2021, the date on which these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, the Company believes that its cash on hand, together with cash generated from sales to customers, will satisfy its working capital and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. 12 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The Company’s assessment of the period of time through which its financial resources will be adequate to support its operations is a forward-looking statement and involves risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could vary as a result of, and its near- and long-term future capital requirements will depend on, many factors, including its growth rate, subscription renewal activity, the timing and extent of spending to support its infrastructure and research and development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing of new introductions of products or features, the continuing market adoption of its networked charging systems platform, and the overall market acceptance of EVs. The Company may in the future enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, services, and technologies, including intellectual property rights, although it has no agreements or commitments to complete any material transactions as of June 11, 2021, the date on which these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. The Company has based its estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and it could use its available capital resources sooner than it currently expects. The Company may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. Future liquidity and cash requirements will depend on numerous factors, including market penetration, the introduction of new products, and potential acquisitions of related businesses or technology. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, or if it cannot expand its operations or otherwise capitalize on its business opportunities because it lacks sufficient capital, its business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected. On February 26, 2021 (“Closing Date”), Switchback Energy Acquisition Corporation (“Switchback”), consummated the previously announced merger with Switchback, Lightning Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Switchback incorporated in the State of Delaware and ChargePoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Legacy ChargePoint”) with the Legacy ChargePoint surviving as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Switchback (“Merger” and, collectively with the other transactions described in the Merger Agreement (as defined below), the “Reverse Recapitalization”). As a result of the Merger, Switchback was renamed “ChargePoint Holdings, Inc.” Please refer to Note 3 “Reverse Recapitalization” for further details of the Merger. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Other than policies noted below, there have been no significant changes to the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2021 and 2020 and for the years ended January 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019. Common Stock Warrants Liabilities The Company assumed 10,470,562 publicly-traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) and 6,521,568 private placement warrants issued to NGP Switchback, LLC (“Private Placement Warrants” and, together with the Public Warrants, the “Common Stock Warrants”) upon the Merger, all of which were issued in connection with Switchback’s initial public offering and subsequent overallotment (other than 1,000,000 Private Placement Warrants that were issued in connection with the closing of the Merger) and entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. During the three months ended April 30, 2021, 6,413,057 Public Warrants and 4,347,712 Private Placement Warrants were exercised. The Public Warrants are publicly traded and are exercisable for cash unless certain conditions occur, such as the failure to have an effective registration statement related to the shares issuable upon exercise or redemption by the Company under certain conditions, at which time the warrants may be cashless exercised. The Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable for cash so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants are redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. 13 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The Company evaluated the Common Stock Warrants and concluded that they do not meet the criteria to be classified within stockholders’ equity. The agreement governing the Common Stock Warrants includes a provision (“Replacement of Securities Upon Reorganization”), the application of which could result in a different settlement value for the Common Stock Warrants depending on their holder. Because the holder of an instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s ordinary shares, the Private Placement Warrants are not considered to be “indexed to the Company’s own stock.” In addition, the provision provides that in the event of a tender or exchange offer accepted by holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s ordinary shares, all holders of the Common Stock Warrants (both the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants) would be entitled to receive cash for all of their Common Stock Warrants. Specifically, in the event of a qualifying cash tender offer (which could be outside of the Company’s control), all Common Stock Warrant holders would be entitled to cash, while only certain of the holders of the Company’s ordinary shares may be entitled to cash. These provisions preclude the Company from classifying the Common Stock Warrants in stockholders’ equity. As the Common Stock Warrants meet the definition of a derivative, the Company recorded these warrants as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss at each reporting date. Contingent Earnout Liability In connection with the Reverse Recapitalization and pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 23, 2020 by and among the Company, Lightning Merger Sub Inc., and Switchback (“Merger Agreement”), eligible ChargePoint equity holders are entitled to receive additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the Company achieving certain Earnout Triggering Events (as described in the Merger Agreement and Note 9). In accordance with ASC 815-40, the earnout shares are not indexed to the Common Stock and therefore are accounted for as a liability at the reverse recapitalization date and subsequently remeasured at each reporting date with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation using a distribution of potential outcomes on a monthly basis over the Earnout Period (as defined in Note 9) prioritizing the most reliable information available. The assumptions utilized in the calculation are based on the achievement of certain stock price milestones, including the current Company Common Stock price, expected volatility, risk-free rate, expected term and dividend rate. The contingent earnout liability is categorized as a Level 3 fair value measurement (see Fair Value of Financial Instruments accounting policy as described above) because the Company estimates projections during the Earnout Period utilizing unobservable inputs. Contingent earnout payments involve certain assumptions requiring significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. 14 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Actual results and outcomes could differ significantly from the Company’s estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Significant estimates include determining standalone selling price for performance obligations in contracts with customers, the estimated expected benefit period for deferred contract acquisition costs, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves, the useful lives of long-lived assets, the determination of the incremental borrowing rate used for operating lease liabilities, the valuation of redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants and common stock warrants, including Common Stock Warrants as a result of the Merger, contingent earnout liability, the value of common stock and other assumptions used to measure stock-based compensation, and the valuation of deferred income tax assets and uncertain tax positions. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could materially differ from those estimates and assumptions. Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are held in domestic and foreign cash accounts with large, creditworthy financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents through deposits with federally insured commercial banks and at times cash balances may be in excess of federal insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security in support of accounts receivable. To reduce credit risk, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is considered to be limited due to the diversity of the Company’s customer base and geographic sales areas. As of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021, one customer individually accounted for 11% and 16% of accounts receivable, net, respectively. For the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no customers that represented 10% or more of total revenue. The Company’s revenue is concentrated in the infrastructure needed for charging EVs, an industry which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological changes within the industry or customer requirements, or the emergence of competitive products with new capabilities or technologies, could adversely affect the Company’s operating results. Impact of COVID-19 In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer and business behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatility in the global economy and led to reduced economic activity. The spread of COVID-19 has also created a disruption in the manufacturing, delivery and overall supply chain of vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, and has led to a decrease in EV sales in some markets. 15 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, ChargePoint had initially modified its business practices (including employee travel, recommending that all non-essential personnel work from home and cancellation or reduction of physical participation in sales activities, meetings, events and conferences), implemented additional safety protocols for essential workers, implemented temporary cost cutting measures in order to reduce its operating costs, some of which it recently reversed, and it may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that it determines are in the best interests of its employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners. While the ultimate duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic depends on current and future developments that cannot be accurately predicted, such as the extent and effectiveness of containment actions and vaccinations, it has already had an adverse effect on the global economy and the ultimate societal and economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains unknown. In particular, the conditions caused by this pandemic are likely to affect the rate of global infrastructure spending, such as work-from-home policies commercial customers are adopting, and could adversely affect demand for ChargePoint’s platforms, lengthen its sales cycles, reduce the value, renewal rate or duration of subscriptions, negatively impact collections of accounts receivable, reduce expected spending from new customers, cause some of its paying customers to go out of business and limit the ability of its direct sales force to travel to customers and potential customers, all of which could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and potentially future periods. Segment Reporting The Company operates as one operating segment because its chief operating decision maker, who is its Chief Executive Officer, reviews its financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of making decisions regarding allocating resources and assessing performance. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as an exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into the following categories based on the inputs used to measure fair value: • (Level 1) — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date; • (Level 2) — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and • (Level 3) — Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability. The Company classifies financial instruments in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for Level 3 financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable, either directly or indirectly. The Company’s assessment of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available in determining fair value. The Company recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy, if any, at the end of each period. There were no transfers between levels during the periods presented. The Company had no material non-financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis that resulted in an impairment in any period presented. The carrying values of the Company’s cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, and accrued and other current liabilities approximate fair value based on the highly liquid, short-term nature of these instruments. 16 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations represents the amount of contracted future revenue not yet recognized as the amounts relate to undelivered performance obligations, including both deferred revenue and non-cancellable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The Company’s Assure, Cloud, and CPaaS subscription terms typically range from one to five years. Revenue expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations was $110.1 million as of April 30, 2021, of which 42% is expected to be recognized over the next twelve months and the remainder thereafter. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue represents billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized in revenue upon transfer of control. Balances consist primarily of software subscription services and extended Assure maintenance services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Contract assets, which represent services provided or products transferred to customers in advance of the date the Company has a right to invoice, are netted against deferred revenue on a customer-by-customer basis. Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period is recorded as deferred revenue with the remainder recorded as deferred revenue, non-current on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Total deferred revenue was $97.6 million and $89.8 million as of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021, respectively. The Company recognized $15.2 million and $16.4 million of revenue during the three months ended April 30, 2021 and April 30, 2020, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the respective period.

Reverse Recapitalization On February 26, 2021, Switchback merged with Legacy ChargePoint, with Legacy ChargePoint surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Switchback. As a result of the Merger, Switchback was renamed “ChargePoint Holdings, Inc.” Immediately prior to the closing of the Merger: • all 22,427,306 shares of Legacy ChargePoint’s outstanding Series H-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into an equivalent number of shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock on a one-to-one basis and an additional 1,026,084 shares of Common Stock were issued to settle the accumulated dividend to the Series H-1 redeemable convertible preferred stockholders of $21.1 million; • all 160,925,957 shares of Legacy ChargePoint’s outstanding Series H, Series G, Series F, Series E, and Series D redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into an equivalent number of shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock on a one-to-one basis; • all 45,376 shares of Legacy ChargePoint’s outstanding Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into an equivalent number of shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock on a 1:73.4403 basis; • all 130,590 shares of Legacy ChargePoint’s outstanding Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into an equivalent number of shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock on a 1:42.9220 basis; and • all 29,126 shares of Legacy ChargePoint’s outstanding Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into an equivalent number of shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock on a 1:48.2529 basis. At the Merger, eligible ChargePoint equity holders received or have the right to receive shares of Common Stock at a deemed value of $10.00 per share after giving effect to the exchange ratio of 0.9966 as defined in the Merger Agreement (“Exchange Ratio”). Accordingly, immediately following the consummation of the Merger, Legacy ChargePoint common stock exchanged into 217,021,368 shares of Common Stock, 68,896,516 shares were reserved for the issuance of Common Stock upon the potential future exercise of Legacy ChargePoint stock options and warrants that were exchanged into ChargePoint stock options and warrants, and 27,000,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for the potential future issuance of the earnout shares. In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Switchback entered into separate subscription agreements (each a “Subscription Agreement”) with a number of investors (each a “New PIPE Investor”), pursuant to which the New PIPE Investors agreed to purchase, and Switchback agreed to sell to the New PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock (“PIPE Shares”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $225.0 million, in a private placement pursuant to the subscription agreements (“PIPE Financing”). The PIPE Financing closed simultaneously with the consummation of the Merger. Pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement the initial Switchback stockholders entered into in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement (“Founders Stock Letter”), the initial stockholders surrendered 984,706 of Switchback Class B common stock shares purchased by NGP Switchback, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”) prior to Switchback Public Offering on May 16, 2019 (“Founder Shares”) for no consideration, whereupon such Founder Shares were immediately cancelled. Additionally 900,000 Founder Earn Back Shares, which were previously subjected to potential forfeiture until the closing volume weighted average price per share of Common Stock achieves $12.00 for any ten trading days within any twenty consecutive trading day period during the five-year period following the Closing (“Founder Earn Back Triggering Event”), met the Earn Back Triggering Event on March 12, 2021. At the Closing, the Sponsor exercised its right to convert a portion of the working capital loans made by the Sponsor to Switchback into an additional 1,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in satisfaction of $1.5 million principal amount of such loans. 18 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The number of shares of Common Stock issued immediately following the consummation of the Merger was: Shares Common stock of Switchback, outstanding prior to Merger 39,264,704 Less redemption of Switchback shares (33,009 ) Less surrender of Switchback Founder Shares (984,706 ) Common stock of Switchback 38,246,989 Shares issued in PIPE 22,500,000 Merger and PIPE financing shares (1) 60,746,989 Legacy ChargePoint shares (2) 217,021,368 Total shares of common stock immediately after Merger 277,768,357 The Merger is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under U.S. GAAP. This determination is primarily based on Legacy ChargePoint stockholders comprising a relative majority of the voting power of ChargePoint and having the ability to nominate the members of the Board, Legacy ChargePoint’s operations prior to the acquisition comprising the only ongoing operations of ChargePoint, and Legacy ChargePoint’s senior management comprising a majority of the senior management of ChargePoint. Under this method of accounting, Switchback is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of ChargePoint represent a continuation of the financial statements of Legacy ChargePoint with the Merger being treated as the equivalent of ChargePoint issuing stock for the net assets of Switchback, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Switchback are stated at historical costs, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Merger are presented as those of ChargePoint. All periods prior to the Merger have been retrospectively adjusted using the Exchange Ratio for the equivalent number of shares outstanding immediately after the Merger to effect the reverse recapitalization. Additionally, upon the consummation of the Merger, the Company gave effect to the issuance of 60,746,989 shares of Common Stock for the previously issued Switchback common stock and PIPE Shares that were outstanding at the Closing Date. In connection with the Merger, the Company raised $511.6 million of proceeds including the contribution of $286.6 million of cash held in Switchback’s trust account from its initial public offering, net of redemptions of Switchback public stockholders of $0.3 million, and $225 million of cash in connection with the PIPE financing. The Company incurred $36.5 million of transaction costs, consisting of banking, legal, and other professional fees, of which $29.5 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital of proceeds and the remaining $7.0 million was expensed in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. (1) This includes 900,000 contingently forfeitable Founder Earn Back Shares pending the occurrence of the Founder Earn Back Triggering Event. (2) The number of Legacy ChargePoint shares was determined from the 217,761,738 shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger converted at the exchange ratio of 0.9966. All fractional shares were rounded. 19 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) 4. Fair Value Measurements The Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows: Fair Value Measured as of April 30, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets Money market funds $ 454,710 $ — $ — $ 454,710 Total financial assets $ 454,710 $ — $ — $ 454,710 Liabilities Common stock warrant liabilities (Public) $ 55,710 $ — $ — $ 55,710 Common stock warrant liabilities (Private Placement) — — 30,499 30,499 Total financial liabilities $ 55,710 $ — $ 30,499 $ 86,209 Fair Value Measured as of January 31, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets Money market funds $ 109,703 $ — $ — $ 109,703 Total financial assets $ 109,703 $ — $ — $ 109,703 Liabilities Redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability $ — $ — $ 75,843 $ 75,843 Total financial liabilities $ — $ — $ 75,843 $ 75,843 The money market funds were classified as cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate fair value of the Company’s money market funds approximated amortized cost and, as such, there were no unrealized gains or losses on money market funds as of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021. Realized gains and losses, net of tax, were not material for any of the periods presented. As of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021, the Company had no investments with a contractual maturity of greater than one year. 20 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments: Redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability Private placement warrant liability Earnout liability (in thousands) Fair value as of January 31, 2021 $ (75,843 ) $ — $ — Private placement warrant liability acquired as part of the merger — (127,888 ) — Contingent earnout liability recognized upon the closing of the reverse recapitalization — — (828,180 ) Change in fair value included in other income (expense), net 9,237 45,434 84,420 Reclassification of option warrants to stockholders’ equity (deficit) due to exercise — 51,955 — Reclassification of Legacy ChargePoint preferred stock warrant liability upon the reverse capitalization 66,606 — — Issuance of earnout shares upon triggering events — — 501,120 Reclassification of remaining contingent earnout liability upon triggering event — — 242,640 Fair value as of April 30, 2021 $ — $ (30,499 ) $ — The fair value of the private placement warrant liability, redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability and earnout liability are based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. In determining the fair value of the private placement warrant liability, the Company used the Binomial-Lattice Model (“BLM”) model that assumes optimal exercise of the Company’s redemption option at the earliest possible date (Note 9). In determining the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value using unobservable inputs including the expected term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield (see Note 9). In determining the fair value of the earnout liability, the Company used the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model using a distribution of potential outcomes on a monthly basis over the Earnout Period using the most reliable information available (see Note 9). 5.

Debt In July 2018, the Company entered into a term loan facility with certain lenders (“2018 Loan”) with a borrowing capacity of $45.0 million to finance working capital and repay all outstanding amounts owed under the previous loans, of which $10.0 million expired unused in June 2019. The Company borrowed $35.0 million, with issuance costs of $1.1 million and net proceeds of $33.9 million. The 2018 Loan was secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, contained customary affirmative and negative covenants, and required the Company to maintain minimum cash balances and attain certain customer billing targets. The 2018 Loan had a five-year maturity and interest was calculated at LIBOR plus 6.55%. The 2018 Loan agreement was amended on March 20, 2019 to extend the interest only monthly payments through June 30, 2021 to be followed by equal monthly payments of principal and interest. As of January 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all financial and non-financial debt covenants. Transaction costs upon entering into the 2018 Loan were recorded as debt discount and were amortized over the term of the 2018 Loan. Total interest expense incurred during the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively. There was no accrued interest as of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021. In March 2021, the Company repaid the entire loan balance of $35.0 million plus accrued interest and prepayment fees of $1.2 million. 7. Commitments and Contingencies Purchase Commitments Open purchase commitments are for the purchase of goods and services related to, but not limited to, manufacturing, facilities, and professional services under non-cancellable contracts. As of April 30, 2021, the Company had open purchase commitments for goods and services of $100.5 million, all of which are expected to be received by January 31, 2024. Legal Proceedings The Company may be involved in various lawsuits, claims, and proceedings, including intellectual property, commercial, securities, and employment matters that arise in the normal course of business. The Company accrues a liability when management believes information available prior to the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements indicates it is probable a loss has been incurred as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. 23 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The Company believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any such lawsuits, claims, and proceedings and, as of April 30, 2021, it was not reasonably possible that a material loss had been incurred in excess of the amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on its experience, the Company believes that damage amounts claimed in these matters are not meaningful indicators of potential liability. Given the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the ultimate outcome of the ongoing matters described herein cannot be predicted with certainty. While litigation is inherently unpredictable, the Company believes it has valid defenses with respect to the legal matters pending against it. Nevertheless, the condensed consolidated financial statements could be materially adversely affected in a particular period by the resolution of one or more of these contingencies. Liabilities established to provide for contingencies are adjusted as further information develops, circumstances change, or contingencies are resolved; and such changes are recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations during the period of the change and reflected in accrued and other current liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Guarantees and Indemnifications The Company has service level commitments to its customers warranting certain levels of uptime reliability and performance and permitting those customers to receive credits in the event that the Company fails to meet those levels. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such commitments. The Company’s arrangements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if its products or services infringe a third-party’s intellectual property rights. Additionally, the Company may be required to indemnify for claims caused by its negligence or willful misconduct. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification obligations due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such obligations and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. 24 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The Company has also agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by them in any action or proceeding to which any of them are, or are threatened to be, made a party by reason of their service as a director or officer. The Company maintains director and officer insurance coverage that would generally enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company also may be subject to indemnification obligations by law with respect to the actions of its employees under certain circumstances and in certain jurisdictions. Leases The Company leases its office facilities under non-cancellable operating leases with various lease terms. The Company also leases certain office equipment under operating lease agreements. The Company’s future payments under the non-cancellable operating lease are as follows: Years Ending January 31, (in thousands) 2022 (remaining nine months) $ 3,835 2023 5,118 2024 4,331 2025 4,154 2026 3,838 Thereafter 13,871 Total undiscounted operating lease payments 35,147 Less: imputed interest (9,787 ) Total operating lease liabilities 25,360 Less: current portion of operating lease liabilities (2,494 ) Operating lease liabilities, noncurrent $ 22,866 8. Common Stock On February 26, 2021, the Merger was consummated and the Company issued 60,746,989 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $200.5 million, net of issuance costs of $29.4 million. Immediately following the Merger, there were 277,768,357 shares of Common Stock outstanding with a par value of $0.0001. The holder of each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. The Company has retroactively adjusted the shares issued and outstanding prior to February 26, 2021 to give effect to the exchange ratio established in the Merger Agreement to determine the number of shares of Common Stock into which they were converted. Immediately prior to the Merger, 484,951,532 shares were authorized to issue at $0.0001 par value, with 299,771,284 shares designated as Common Stock and 185,180,248 shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock. 25 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Common Stock Reserved for Future Issuance Shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance, on an as-if converted basis, were as follows: April 30, 2021 Common stock reserved for Earnout 9,000,000 Stock options issued and outstanding 29,795,964 Common stock warrants outstanding 43,895,087 Shares available for grant under 2021 Equity Incentive Plan 41,429,526 Shares available for grant under 2021 ESPP 8,177,683 Total shares of common stock reserved 132,298,260 On February 26, 2021, upon the closing of the Merger (Note 3), all of the outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted to Common Stock pursuant to the conversion rate effective immediately prior to the Merger and the remaining amount was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. 9. Stock Warrants and Earnouts Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants Warrants to purchase a total of 2,358,528 shares of Series B, D and E redeemable convertible preferred stock were initially recognized as a liability recorded at fair value upon issuance and were subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date. As part of the Merger, Legacy ChargePoint redeemable convertible preferred stock was converted into Legacy ChargePoint common stock pursuant to the conversion rate effective immediately prior to the Merger while all related Legacy preferred stock warrants were converted into warrants exercisable for shares of Common Stock with terms consistent with the Legacy preferred stock warrants except for the number of shares exercisable therefor and the exercise price, each of which was adjusted using the Exchange Ratio. At that time, the ChargePoint redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability was remeasured and reclassified to Legacy ChargePoint additional paid-in capital. The liability associated with these warrants was subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date using the Level 3 fair value inputs. See Note 4 for further details. The Level 3 fair value inputs used in the recurring valuation of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability were as follows: February 26, 2021 (Merger Date) January 31, 2021 Expected volatility 84.3 % 80.5 % Risk-free interest rate 0.0 % 0.1 % Dividend rate 0.0 % 0.0 % Expected term (years) 0.0 1.4 26 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Common Stock Warrants In addition to the warrants to purchase 2,358,528 shares of Legacy ChargePoint preferred stock described above, Legacy ChargePoint had outstanding warrants to purchase 36,402,503 shares of Legacy ChargePoint common stock, which now represent warrants to purchase Common Stock. Private Placement Warrants The Private Placement Warrants were initially recognized as a liability on February 26, 2021, at a fair value of $127.9 million and the Private Placement Warrant liability was remeasured to fair value as of any respective exercise dates and as of April 30, 2021, resulting in a gain of $45.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2021, classified within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Private Placement Warrants were valued using the following assumptions under the Binomial-Lattice Model (“BLM”) that assumes optimal exercise of the Company’s redemption option at the earliest possible date: April 30, 2021 February 26, 2021 Market price of public stock 25.3 30.8 Exercise price 11.5 11.5 Expected term (years) 4.8 5.0 Volatility 73.2 % 73.5 % Risk-free interest rate 0.8 % 0.8 % Dividend rate 0.0 % 0.0 % Public Warrants The Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Merger. The Public Warrants were initially recognized as a liability on February 26, 2021 at a fair value of $153.7 million and the public warrant liability was remeasured to fair value based upon the market price as warrants were exercised and as of April 30, 2021, resulting in a loss of $1.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2021, classified within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended April 30, 2021, net proceeds for exercised Public Warrants were $73.3 million. 27 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Activity of warrants is set forth below: Legacy Common and Preferred Stock Warrants (1) Private Placement Warrants Public Warrants Total Common Stock Warrants (1) Outstanding as of January 31, 2021 38,761,031 — — 38,761,031 Common Stock Warrants as Part of the Merger — 6,521,568 10,470,562 16,992,130 Warrants Exercised (1,097,305 ) (4,347,712 ) (6,413,057 ) (11,858,074 ) Outstanding as of April 30, 2021 37,663,726 2,173,856 4,057,505 43,895,087 (1) The shares (and the warrants’ exercise prices) subject to the Company’s Legacy common and preferred stock warrants were restated to reflect the exchange ratio of approximately 0.9966 established in the Merger Agreement as discussed in Note 3. Contingent Earnout Liability During the five year period starting at the closing of the Merger (“Earnout Period”), eligible former equity holders of Legacy ChargePoint may receive up to 27,000,000 additional shares of Common Stock (“Earnout Shares”) in the aggregate in three equal tranches if certain Earnout Triggering Events (as described in the Merger Agreement) are fully satisfied. An “Earnout Triggering Event” means the date on which the closing volume weighted-average price (“VWAP”) per share of common stock quoted on the NYSE (or the exchange on which the shares of common stock are then listed) is greater or equal to $15.00, $20.00 and $30.00 for any ten trading days within any 20 consecutive trading day period within the Earnout Period. Upon the closing of the Merger, the contingent obligation to issue Earnout Shares was accounted for as a liability because the Earnout Triggering Events that determine the number of Earnout Shares required to be issued include events that are not solely indexed to the common stock of ChargePoint. The estimated fair value of the total Earnout Shares at the closing of the Merger on February 26, 2021, was $828.2 million based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model using a distribution of potential outcomes on a monthly basis over the Earnout Period using the most reliable information available. Assumptions used in the valuation are described below. March 12, 2021 February 26, 2021 Current stock price 27.84 30.83 Expected volatility 72.00 % 71.60 % Risk-free interest rate 0.85 % 0.75 % Dividend rate 0.00 % 0.00 % Expected term (years) 4.96 5.00 The first two Earnout Triggering Events for up to 18,000,000 of the Earnout Shares occurred on March 12, 2021, and, after the withholding of some of these Earnout Shares for tax withholding, 17,539,657 Earnout Shares were issued on March 19, 2021, and the estimated fair value of the earnout liability was remeasured to $743.7 million, including (i) $501.1 million related to the Earnout Shares issuable upon the occurrence of the Earnout Triggering Event associated with the $15.00 and $20.00 VWAP per share thresholds based on the Common Stock price as of March 12, 2021, and (ii) $242.6 million related to the estimated fair value of earnout liability related to the remaining 9,000,000 Earnout Shares issuable upon the occurrence of the Earnout Triggering Event associated with the $30.00 VWAP per share threshold based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model as of March 12, 2021, as described above. The change in fair value resulted in a gain of $84.4 million recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2021. Upon settlement of the first two tranches, the classification of the remaining 9,000,000 Earnout Shares of the third tranche was changed to equity on March 12, 2021, because the Earnout Shares became an instrument contingently issuable upon the occurrence of the Earnout Triggering Event into a fixed number of Common Shares that is not based on an observable market price or index other than the Company’s own stock price. 10. Equity Plans and Stock-based Compensation On February 25, 2021, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (“2021 EIP”) and the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2021 ESPP”). As of April 30, 2021, 41,429,526 and 8,177,683 shares of Common Stock were available under the 2021 EIP and 2021 ESPP, respectively. On the first day of each March, beginning on March 1, 2021 and continuing through March 1, 2030, the 2021 EIP reserve will automatically increase by a number of shares equal to the lesser of (a) 5% of the total number of shares actually issued and outstanding on the last day of the preceding month and (b) a number determined by our Board of Directors. Further, on the first day of each March during the term of the 2021 ESPP, commencing on March 1, 2021 and ending on (and including) March 1, 2040, the aggregate number of shares of stock that may be issued under the 2021 ESPP shall automatically increase by a number equal to the lesser of (i) one percent (1%) of the total number of shares of stock issued and outstanding on the last day of the preceding month, (ii) 5,400,000 shares of stock (subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments), or (iii) a number of shares of stock determined by the Board. 28 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Under the 2021 EIP, the Company can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and certain other awards which are settled in the form of common shares issued under this 2021 EIP. Under the 2021 ESPP, the Company can grant stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock at a purchase price which shall not be less either than 85% of the fair market value of such share on the first trading day of an offering period or 85% of the fair market value of such share on the purchase date. No further awards will be granted under Legacy ChargePoint’s 2017 Stock Plan (“2017 Plan”) and 24,259,238 shares of Common Stock remain reserved for outstanding awards issued under the 2017 Plan at the time of adoption of the 2021 EIP and the 2021 ESPP. Additionally, no other awards can be granted under Legacy ChargePoint’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”) and 5,143,849 shares of Common Stock remained reserved for outstanding awards issued under the 2007 Plan at the time of the adoption of the 2021 EIP and the 2021 ESPP. Activity under the Company’s equity plans is set forth below: Number of Stock Option Awards Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Outstanding as of January 31, 2021 30,166,792 $ 0.71 7.3 $ 1,064,539 Forfeited (353,478 ) $ 0.74 Expired (17,350 ) $ 58.74 Outstanding as of April 30, 2021 29,795,964 $ 0.67 6.9 $ 734,460 Options vested and expected to vest as of April 30, 2021 29,795,964 $ 0.67 6.9 $ 734,460 Exercisable as of April 30, 2021 18,248,059 $ 0.64 6.0 $ 450,546 Activity for exercised awards includes early exercises of stock options such that these awards are not considered outstanding stock options upon exercise. The options outstanding as of April 30, 2021, also includes the June 2020 grant of a stock option to purchase a total of 1.5 million shares of Common Stock subject to both service and performance-based vesting conditions to the Chief Executive Officer under the 2017 Plan (“CEO Awards”). No stock-based compensation expense had been recorded as the CEO awards were improbable of vesting before and after two modifications in each of September 2020 and December 2020, because the performance-based vesting condition was contingent upon the closing of the Merger. Accordingly, the Company commenced recognition of stock-based compensation expense for such CEO Awards following the Merger in February 2021. As of April 30, 2021, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to these unvested CEO Awards was $38.8 million. Total stock-based compensation expense for stock awards recognized during the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 was $7.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. As of April 30, 2021, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to stock awards was $45.0 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The following sets forth the total stock-based compensation expense for the Company’s stock options (including the CEO Awards) and restricted common stock included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations: Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Cost of revenue $ 24 $ 23 Research and development 675 302 Sales and marketing 598 299 General and administrative 6,280 286 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 7,577 $ 910 29 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) 11. Income Taxes The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate as adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The effective income tax rate was nil for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the full valuation allowances on the Company’s net domestic deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted and signed into law in the United States. The CARES Act includes measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws. The Company did not receive a stimulus payment related to the CARES Act. 12. Related Party Transactions Daimler AG and its affiliated entities (“Daimler”) are investors in the Company and one of its employees is a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The following revenue transactions took place between the Company and Daimler during the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Daimler $ 1,335 $ 726 Revenue from related parties $ 1,335 $ 726 Related party accounts receivable as of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021 from Daimler was $1.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively. 30 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 2020 (in thousands, except share and per share data) Numerator: Net income (loss) $ 82,289 $ (30,098 ) Adjust: Cumulative dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock (4,292 ) — Adjust: Deemed dividends attributable to vested option holders (51,855 ) — Adjust: Deemed dividends attributable to common stock warrant holders (110,635 ) — Net loss attributable to common stockholders - Basic (84,493 ) (30,098 ) Less: Gain attributable to earnout shares issued (53,820 ) — Less: Change in fair value of dilutive warrants (49,471 ) — Net loss attributable to common stockholders - Diluted $ (187,784 ) $ (30,098 ) Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding 218,932,121 12,432,519 Less: Weighted-average unvested restricted shares and shares subject to repurchase (316,258 ) (179,427 ) Weighted average shares outstanding - Basic 218,615,863 12,253,092 Add: Earnout Shares under the treasury stock method 2,956,122 0 Add: Public and Private Placement Warrants under the treasury stock method 3,961,404 0 Weighted average shares outstanding - Diluted 225,533,389 12,253,092 Net loss per share - Basic $ (0.39 ) $ (2.46 ) Net loss per share - Diluted $ (0.83 ) $ (2.46 ) As a result of the Merger, the Company has retroactively adjusted the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding prior to February 26, 2021 (“Closing Date”) by multiplying them by the exchange ratio of 0.9966 used to determine the number of shares of Common Stock into which they converted. The Common Stock issued as a result of the redeemable convertible preferred stock conversion on the Closing Date was included in the basic net loss per share calculation on a prospective basis. Redeemable convertible preferred stock and preferred stock warrants outstanding prior to the Merger Closing Date were excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation for the three-months period ended April 30, 2021, because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. Additionally, the remaining 9,000,000 Earnout Shares for which the Earnout Triggering Event has not occurred yet were excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation for the three-months period ended April 30, 2021, because the Earnout Triggering Event was not met at the end of the reporting period. 31 Table of Contents ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The potential shares of Common Stock that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods presented because including them would have had an antidilutive effect were as follows: April 30, 2021 Options to purchase common stock 29,795,964 Unvested early exercised common stock options 263,982 Common stock warrants 43,895,087 Total potentially dilutive common share equivalents 73,955,033 14. Subsequent Events On June 4, 2021, the Company issued a notice of the redemption of all of its outstanding Public Warrants that remain outstanding on July 6, 2021 for a redemption price of $0.01 per warrant. The Private Placement Warrants that are still held by the initial holders thereof or their permitted transferees are not subject to the redemption. 32 Table of Contents ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion of the results of operations and financial condition of ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (“ChargePoint” or the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with ChargePoint’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021 and the related notes included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021 and as amended and filed with the SEC on April 1, 2021. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. ChargePoint’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this report. Overview ChargePoint designs, develops and markets networked electric vehicle (“EV”) charging system infrastructure and cloud-based services which enable consumers the ability to locate, reserve, authenticate and transact EV charging sessions (“Cloud” or “Cloud Services”). As part of ChargePoint’s networked charging systems, subscriptions and other offerings, it provides an open platform that integrates with system hardware from ChargePoint and other manufacturers, connecting systems over an intelligent network that provides real-time information about charging sessions and full control, support and management of the networked charging systems. This network provides multiple web-based portals for charging system owners, fleet managers, drivers and utilities. ChargePoint generates revenue primarily through the sale of networked charging systems, Cloud Services and extended parts and labor warranty (“Assure”), which are typically paid for upfront. Assure also includes proactive monitoring, fast response times, parts and labor warranty, expert advice and robust reporting. The ChargePoint as a Service (“CPaaS”) program combines the customer’s use of ChargePoint’s owned and operated systems with Cloud Services, Assure and other benefits available to subscribers into one subscription. ChargePoint targets three key customer markets: commercial, fleet and residential. Commercial customers have parking places largely within their workplaces. Fleet includes municipal buses, delivery and work vehicles, port/airport/warehouse and other industrial applications, ridesharing services, and is expected to eventually include, autonomous transportation. Residential includes single family homes and multifamily residences. Since ChargePoint’s inception in 2007, it has been engaged in developing and marketing its networked charging systems, subscriptions and other offerings, raising capital and recruiting personnel. ChargePoint has incurred net operating losses and negative cash flows from operations every year since its inception. As of April 30, 2021, ChargePoint had an accumulated deficit of $597.1 million. ChargePoint has funded its operations primarily from sales of its solutions, with proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock and common stock and borrowings under its loan facilities. Recent Developments Closing of Merger On February 26, 2021 (“Closing Date”), Switchback Energy Acquisition Corporation (“Switchback”), consummated the previously announced merger with Switchback, Lightning Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Switchback incorporated in the State of Delaware (“Merger Sub”) and ChargePoint, Inc. (“Legacy ChargePoint”), with the Legacy ChargePoint surviving as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Switchback. On the Closing Date, and in connection with the closing of the Merger (“Closing”), Switchback Energy Acquisition Corporation changed its name to ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each stockholder of Legacy ChargePoint received 0.9966 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and the contingent right to receive certain Earnout Shares (as defined below), for each share of Legacy ChargePoint common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, owned by such Legacy ChargePoint stockholder that was outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (other than any shares of Legacy ChargePoint restricted stock). In addition, certain investors purchased an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock (such investors, the “PIPE Investors”) concurrently with the Closing for an aggregate purchase price of $225,000,000. Additionally, at the Closing, after giving effect to the forfeiture contemplated by the Founders Stock Letter (as defined below), each outstanding share of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Founder Shares”), was converted into a share of Common Stock on a one-for-one basis and the Founder Shares ceased to exist. 33 Table of Contents In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (“Effective Time”), (1) warrants to purchase shares of capital stock of Legacy ChargePoint were converted into warrants to purchase an aggregate of 38,761,031 shares of Common Stock and the contingent right to receive certain Earnout Shares, (2) options to purchase shares of common stock of Legacy ChargePoint were converted into options to purchase an aggregate of 30,135,695 shares of Common Stock and, with respect to vested options, the contingent right to receive certain Earnout Shares and (3) unvested restricted shares of common stock of Legacy ChargePoint that were outstanding pursuant to the “early exercise” of Legacy ChargePoint options were converted into an aggregate of 345,689 restricted shares of ChargePoint (“Restricted Shares”). Also at the Closing, NGP Switchback, LLC (“Sponsor”) exercised its right to convert a portion of the working capital loans made by the Sponsor to Switchback into an additional 1,000,000 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in satisfaction of $1,500,000 principal amount of such loans. During the time period between the Closing and the five-year anniversary of the Closing Date, eligible former equity holders may receive up to 27,000,000 additional shares of ChargePoint’s common stock (“Earnout Shares”) in the aggregate in three equal tranches if the volume-weighted average closing sale price of our Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00, $20.00 and $30.00 for any 10 trading days within any 20 consecutive trading day period (“Trigger Events”). On March 19, 2021, a total of approximately 18,000,000 shares of Common Stock were released to eligible former equity holders of Legacy ChargePoint pursuant to the Earnout Shares provisions of the Merger Agreement, as the first two Trigger Events had been met. The Trigger Events were met by virtue of the volume-weighted average closing sale price of Common Stock having been greater than or equal to $15.00 and $20.00 for ten (10) trading days out of twenty (20) consecutive trading days following the closing of the Merger. The holders of Legacy ChargePoint common stock (other than restricted stock), warrants and vested options as of the closing of the Merger received their pro rata portion of the Earnout Shares. These Earnout Shares are not subject to a lock-up agreement and may be sold publicly following receipt. A third Trigger Event will be achieved and 9 million more shares will be released if the volume-weighted average closing sale price of the Common Stock is greater than or equal to $30.00 for ten (10) trading days within any twenty (20) consecutive trading day period prior to February 26, 2026. Key Factors Affecting Operating Results ChargePoint believes its performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for it but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below. Growth in EV Adoption ChargePoint’s revenue growth is directly tied to the continued acceptance of passenger and commercial EVs sold, which it believes drives the demand for charging infrastructure. The market for EVs is still rapidly evolving and although demand for EVs has grown in recent years, there is no guarantee of such future demand. Factors impacting the adoption of EVs include but are not limited to: perceptions about EV features, quality, safety, performance and cost; perceptions about the limited range over which EVs may be driven on a single battery charge; volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline; availability of services for EVs; consumers’ perception about the convenience and cost of charging EVs; and increases in fuel efficiency. In addition, macroeconomic factors could impact demand for EVs, particularly since they can be more expensive than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles when the automotive industry globally has been experiencing a recent decline in sales. If the market for EVs does not develop as expected or if there is any slow-down or delay in overall EV adoption rates, this would impact ChargePoint’s ability to increase its revenue or grow its business. 34 Table of Contents Competition ChargePoint is currently a market leader in North America in the commercial Level 2 Alternating Current (“AC”) chargers. ChargePoint also offers chargers for use at home or multifamily settings, and high-power Level 3 Direct Current (“DC”) Fast chargers for urban fast charging, corridor or long-trip charging and fleet applications. ChargePoint intends to expand its market share over time in its product categories, leveraging the network effect of its products and Cloud Services software. Existing competitors may expand their product offerings and sales strategies, and new competitors may enter the market. Furthermore, ChargePoint’s competition includes other types of alternative fuel vehicles and high fuel-economy gasoline powered vehicles. If ChargePoint’s market share decreases due to increased competition, its revenue and ability to generate profits in the future may be impacted. Europe Expansion ChargePoint operates in North America and selected countries in Europe. Europe is expected to be a significant contributor to ChargePoint’s revenue in future years. ChargePoint plans to use a portion of the proceeds from the Merger to increase its sales and marketing activities in Europe. ChargePoint is also positioned to grow its European business through existing partnerships with car leasing companies. In Europe ChargePoint primarily competes with smaller providers of EV charging station networks. Many of these competitors have limited funding, which could cause poor experiences and have a negative impact on overall EV adoption in Europe. ChargePoint’s growth in Europe requires differentiating itself as compared to these existing competitors. If ChargePoint is unable to continue penetrating the market in Europe, its future revenue growth and profits may be impacted. Fleet Expansion ChargePoint’s future growth is highly dependent upon fleet applications. Because fleet operators often make large purchases of EVs volatility may be more pronounced, and any significant decline from these customers reduces ChargePoint’s potential for future growth. Impact of New Product Releases and Investments in Growth As ChargePoint introduces new products, its gross margins may be temporarily impacted by launch costs, until its supply chain achieves targeted cost reductions, such as the market introduction of its Level 3 DC Fast charger in fiscal year 2020. In addition, ChargePoint may accelerate its operating expenditures where it sees growth opportunities which may impact gross margin until upfront costs and inefficiencies are absorbed and normalized operations are achieved. ChargePoint also continuously evaluates and may adjust its operating expenditures based on its launch plans for its new products, as well as other factors including the pace and prioritization of current projects under development and the addition of new projects. As ChargePoint attains higher revenue, it expects operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue to decrease as it scales and focuses on increasing operational efficiency and process automation. Government Mandates, Incentives and Programs The U.S. federal government, certain foreign governments and some state and local governments provide incentives to end users and purchasers of EVs and EV charging stations in the form of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives. These governmental rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives significantly lower the effective price of EVs and EV charging stations to customers. However, these incentives may expire on specified dates, end when the allocated funding is no longer available, or be reduced or terminated as a matter of regulatory or legislative policy. In particular, the credits under Section 30C of the Code which benefit investments in EV charging stations may be reduced or become unavailable if not extended in future years. Any reduction in rebates, tax credits or other financial incentives could reduce the demand for EVs and for charging infrastructure, including infrastructure ChargePoint offers. 35 Table of Contents ChargePoint also derives Other revenue from fees received for transferring regulatory credits earned for participating in low carbon fuel programs in approved states. ChargePoint claims these regulatory credits only if they are not claimed by purchasers of its EV charging stations; only a small percentage of its customers currently elect to claim such credits. If a material percentage of its customers were to claim these regulatory credits, ChargePoint’s revenue from this source could decline significantly, which could have an adverse effect on its revenue and overall gross margin. Recently, ChargePoint has derived a slight majority of its Other revenue from these regulatory credits, and ChargePoint expects revenue from this source as a percentage of Other and total revenue will decline over time. Further, the availability of such credits depends on continued governmental support for these programs. If these programs are modified, reduced or eliminated, ChargePoint’s ability to generate this revenue in the future would be adversely impacted. Impact of COVID-19 In December 2019, COVID-19 was first reported to the World Health Organization (“WHO”), and in January 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak to be a public health emergency. In March 2020, the WHO characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer and business behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatility in the global economy and led to reduced economic activity. The spread of COVID-19 has also created a disruption in the manufacturing, delivery and overall supply chain of vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, and has led to a decrease in EV sales in markets around the world. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, ChargePoint initially modified its business practices (including employee travel, recommending that all non-essential personnel work from home and cancellation or reduction of physical participation in sales activities, meetings, events and conferences), implemented additional safety protocols for essential workers, implemented temporary cost cutting measures in order to reduce its operating costs, some of which it recently reversed, and it may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that it determines are in the best interests of its employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners. While the ultimate duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future developments that cannot be accurately predicted, such as the extent and effectiveness of containment actions and vaccinations, it has already had an adverse effect on the global economy and the ultimate societal and economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains unknown. In particular, the conditions caused by this pandemic are likely to affect the rate of global infrastructure spending, such as work-from-home policies commercial customers are adopting, and could adversely affect demand for ChargePoint’s platforms, lengthen its sales cycles, reduce the value, renewal rate or duration of subscriptions, negatively impact collections of accounts receivable, reduce expected spending from new customers, cause some of its paying customers to go out of business and limit the ability of its direct sales force to travel to customers and potential customers, all of which could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition during the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022 and potentially future periods. Components of Results of Operations Revenue Networked Charging Systems Networked charging systems revenue includes revenue related to the deliveries of EV charging system infrastructure, which include lower priced Level 1 home chargers typically sold to drivers, Level 2 AC chargers for commercial use and Level 3 DC Fast charging systems for urban/corridor charging and for fleet operators. A majority of ChargePoint’s networked charging systems revenue is derived from the sale of Level 2 AC chargers. ChargePoint recognizes revenue from sales of networked charging systems upon shipment to the customer, which is when the performance obligation has been satisfied. Subscriptions Subscriptions revenue consists of services related to Cloud, as well as extended maintenance service plans under Assure. Subscriptions revenue also consists of CPaaS revenue which combines the customer’s use of ChargePoint’s owned and operated systems with Cloud and Assure programs into a single subscription. CPaaS subscriptions contain a lease for the customer’s use of ChargePoint’s owned and operated systems unless the location allows it to receive incremental economic benefit from regulatory credits earned on that EV charging system. Lessor revenue relates to operating leases and historically has not been material. Subscriptions revenue is recognized over time on a straight-line basis as ChargePoint has a stand-ready obligation to deliver such services to the customer. 36 Table of Contents Other Other revenue consists of fees received for transferring regulatory credits earned for participating in low carbon fuel programs in approved states, charging related fees received from drivers using charging sites owned and operated by ChargePoint, net transaction fees earned for processing payments collected on driver charging sessions at charging sites owned by its customers, and other professional services. Revenue from regulatory credits is recognized at the point in time the regulatory credits are transferred. Revenue from fees for owned and operated sites is recognized over time on a straight-line basis over the performance period of the service contract as ChargePoint has a stand-ready obligation to deliver such services. Revenue from driver charging sessions and charging transaction fees is recognized at the point in time the charging session or transaction is completed. Revenue from professional services is recognized as the services are rendered. For the remainder of fiscal year 2022, ChargePoint expects revenue to grow in both networked charging systems and subscriptions due to increased demand in EV and its related charging infrastructure market. Cost of Revenue Networked Charging Systems ChargePoint uses contract manufacturers to manufacture the majority of its networked charging systems. ChargePoint conducts the remainder of its manufacturing in-house. ChargePoint’s cost of revenue for the sale of networked charging systems includes the contract manufacturer costs of finished goods. For ChargePoint’s limited in-house production, cost of revenue for the sale of networked charging systems also includes parts, labor, manufacturing costs, and allocated facilities and information technology expenses. Cost of revenue for the sale of networked charging systems also consists of salaries and related personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation, warranty provisions, depreciation of manufacturing related equipment and facilities, amortization of capitalized internal-use software, and allocated facilities and information technology expenses. As revenue is recognized, ChargePoint accounts for estimated warranty cost as a charge to cost of revenue. The estimated warranty cost is based on historical and predicted product failure rates and repair expenses. Costs incurred for shipping and handling are recorded in cost of revenue. Subscriptions Cost of subscriptions revenue includes network and wireless connectivity costs for subscription services, field maintenance costs for Assure to support ChargePoint’s network of systems, depreciation of owned and operated systems used in CPaaS arrangements, amortization of capitalized internal-use software development costs, allocated facilities and information technology expenses, salaries and related personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation and third-party support costs to manage the systems and helpdesk services for drivers and site hosts. Other Cost of other revenue includes depreciation and other costs for ChargePoint’s owned and operated charging sites, salaries and related personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation, as well as costs of environmental and professional services. Gross Profit and Gross Margin Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue and gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of revenue. ChargePoint offers a range of networked charging systems products which vary widely in selling price and associated margin. Accordingly, ChargePoint’s gross profit and gross margin have varied and are expected to continue to vary from period to period due to revenue levels; geographic, vertical and product mix; new product introductions, and its efforts to optimize its operations and supply chain. 37 Table of Contents In the long term, improvements in ChargePoint’s gross profit and gross margin will depend on its ability to increase its revenue and continue to optimize its operations and supply chain. However, at least in the short term, as ChargePoint launches new networked charging systems products, grows its presence in Europe where it has not yet achieved economies of scale, and expands its solutions for its fleet customers, it expects gross margin to experience variability from period to period. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation, for personnel related to the development of improvements and expanded features for ChargePoint’s services, as well as quality assurance, testing, product management, amortization of capitalized internal-use software, and allocated facilities and information technology expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. ChargePoint expects its research and development expenses to increase on an absolute basis and they may increase as a percentage of total revenue for the foreseeable future as it continues to invest in research and development activities to achieve its technology and product roadmap. Sales and Marketing Expenses Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation, sales commissions, professional services fees, travel, marketing and promotional expenses amortization of capitalized internal-use software and allocated facilities and information technology expenses. ChargePoint expects its sales and marketing expenses to increase on an absolute basis and they may increase as a percentage of total revenue for the foreseeable future while it continues to add sales and marketing personnel, expand its sales channels and expand in Europe.

Interest Income Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on ChargePoint’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Interest Expense Interest expense consists primarily of the interest on ChargePoint’s term loan which was paid off in March 2021. Change in Fair Value of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability Redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability is subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. ChargePoint adjusts the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants and conversion of redeemable convertible preferred stock into Common Stock. 38 Table of Contents Change in Fair Value of Common Stock Warrant Liabilities Common stock warrant liabilities consist of publicly-traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) and private placement warrants issued to NGP Switchback, LLC. (“Private Placement Warrants”) which ChargePoint assumed in connection with the Merger and are subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date. ChargePoint expects to incur an incremental income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the fair value adjustments for the outstanding common stock warrant liabilities at the end of each reporting period or through the exercise of such warrants. Change in Fair Value of Contingent Earnout Liability Contingent Earnout liability was accounted for as a liability as of the date of the Merger and remeasured to fair value until the Earnout Triggering Event was met for the first two tranches in March 2021 and the Earnout Shares issued. In March 2021, the remaining Earnout liability for the third tranche converted to be accounted for as equity. Transaction Costs Expensed Transaction costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs that were directly related to the consummation of the Merger. Transaction costs related to the issuance of shares were recognized in shareholders’ equity (deficit) while costs associated with the warrant liabilities and non-capitalized amounts were expensed in the condensed consolidated statements of operations upon the completion of the Merger on February 26, 2021. Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense), net consists primarily of foreign currency transaction gains and losses. Provision for Income Taxes ChargePoint’s provision for income taxes consists of an estimate of federal, state and foreign income taxes based on enacted federal, state and foreign tax rates, as adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes in tax law. Due to the level of historical losses, ChargePoint maintains a valuation allowance against U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets as it has concluded it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. 39 Table of Contents Results of Operations Comparison of the Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2020 The following table summarizes ChargePoint’s results of operations for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended April 30, Period-over-Period Change Three Months Ended 2021 2020 April 30, 2021 to 2020 (in thousands, except percentages) Change ($) Change (%) Revenue Networked charging systems $ 26,800 $ 19,657 $ 7,143 36 % Subscriptions 10,824 9,004 1,820 20 % Other 2,886 4,115 (1,229 ) (30 )% Total revenue 40,510 32,776 7,734 24 % Cost of revenue Networked charging systems 23,742 18,616 5,126 28 % Subscriptions 5,640 4,773 867 18 % Other 1,911 1,623 288 18 % Total cost of revenue 31,293 25,012 6,281 25 % Gross profit 9,217 7,764 1,453 19 % Gross margin 23 % 24 % Operating expenses Research and development 25,374 18,026 7,348 41 % Sales and marketing 15,974 14,201 1,773 12 % General and administrative 14,467 5,089 9,378 184 % Total operating expenses 55,815 37,316 18,499 50 % Loss from operations (46,598 ) (29,552 ) (17,046 ) 58 % Interest income 22 243 (221 ) * Interest expense (1,499 ) (835 ) (664 ) 80 % Change in fair value of redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability 9,237 535 8,702 * Change in fair value of common stock warrant liabilities 43,761 — 43,761 * Change in fair value of contingent earnout liability 84,420 — 84,420 * Transaction costs expensed (7,031 ) — (7,031 ) * Other income (expense), net 15 (432 ) 447 * Net income (loss) before income taxes 82,327 (30,041 ) 112,368 * Provision for income taxes 38 57 (19 ) * Net income (loss) $ 82,289 $ (30,098 ) $ 112,387 373 % * Not Meaningful Revenue Revenue increased by $7.7 million, or 24%, from $32.8 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $40.5 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021, primarily attributable to an increase of $7.1 million in networked charging systems revenue. This increase was primarily attributable to higher volumes of systems delivered across both ChargePoint’s Level 1 home chargers and Level 3 DC Fast chargers as well as an increase in the average selling prices in some categories. Subscriptions revenue also increased by $1.8 million primarily due to growth in the number of charging systems connected to its network. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other revenue of $1.2 million due to fewer regulatory credits transferred. 40 Table of Contents Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue increased by $6.3 million, or 25%, from $25.0 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $31.3 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase of $5.1 million in networked charging systems cost of revenue primarily due to an increase in the number of charging system delivered. Subscriptions cost of revenue increased by $0.9 million as ChargePoint expanded its network and support capabilities, and other cost of revenue increased by $0.3 million primarily related to higher depreciation on owned and operated charging sites. Gross Profit and Gross Margin Gross profit increased by $1.5 million, or 19%, from $7.8 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $9.2 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021. Gross margin decreased from 24% during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to 23% during the three months ended April 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in other revenue in the form of regulatory credits transferred, which has higher gross margins. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses increased by $7.3 million, or 41%, from $18.0 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $25.4 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $3.8 million increase in engineering personnel costs due to headcount growth as well as a $3.0 million increase in research materials and related operating expenses. Sales and Marketing Expenses Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 12%, from $14.2 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $16.0 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in personnel costs including payroll, benefit and sales commissions, resulting from headcount and, with respect to sales commissions, revenue growth. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses increased by $9.4 million, or 184%, from $5.1 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $14.5 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $5.8 million increase in stock-based compensation and a $2.4 million increase in audit, legal and advisory fees mainly related to the closing of the Merger. Interest Income Interest income did not significantly fluctuate during the three months ended April 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2020. Interest Expense Interest expense increased by $0.7 million from $0.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $1.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2021. The increase was due to the prepayment charges associated with the settlement of the outstanding term loan. As of April 30, 2021, ChargePoint had no outstanding loans. Change in Fair Value of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability Change in fair value of redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability increased by $8.7 million from $0.5 million during the three months ended April 30, 2020 to $9.2 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021, due to changes in the fair value of Legacy ChargePoint’s redeemable convertible preferred stock through the date of the Merger. As of April 30, 2021, ChargePoint had no outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liabilities. 41 Table of Contents Change in Fair Value of Common Stock Warrant Liabilities ChargePoint recognized a change in fair value of common stock warrant liabilities of $43.8 million during the three months ended April 30, 2021 due to the decrease in the fair value of Legacy ChargePoint’s common stock during the period the warrants were outstanding. Change in Fair Value of Contingent Earnout Liability ChargePoint recognized a change in fair value of contingent earnout liability of $84.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2021 due to the decrease in the fair value of Legacy ChargePoint’s common stock after ChargePoint announced the Merger. Transaction Costs Expensed ChargePoint expensed transaction costs that related to the warrant liabilities assumed as part of the Merger of $7.0 million, out of $36.5 million total, for the three months ended April 30, 2021 as a result of the consummation of the Merger. Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense) did not significantly fluctuate during the three months ended April 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2020. Provision for income taxes The provision for income taxes did not significantly fluctuate during the three months ended April 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2020. Liquidity and Capital Resources Sources of Liquidity ChargePoint has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception which it anticipates will continue for the foreseeable future. To date, ChargePoint has funded its operations primarily with proceeds from the issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock, borrowings under its loan facilities, customer payments and proceeds from the Reverse Recapitalization. As of April 30, 2021, ChargePoint had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $610.2 million. ChargePoint believes that its cash on hand, together with cash generated from sales to customers will satisfy its working capital and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. From inception to April 30, 2021, ChargePoint has raised aggregate net cash proceeds of $615.7 million from the sale of shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock and $477.5 million from the Merger and the PIPE. In March 2021, ChargePoint repaid the entire loan balance of $35.0 million plus accrued interest and prepayment fees of $1.2 million. Long-Term Liquidity Requirements Until ChargePoint can generate sufficient revenue to cover its cost of sales, operating expenses, working capital and capital expenditures, it expects to primarily fund cash needs through a combination of equity and debt financing. If ChargePoint raises funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders may result. Any equity securities issued may also provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of holders of Common Stock. If ChargePoint raises funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of Common Stock. The terms of debt securities or borrowings could impose significant restrictions on ChargePoint’s operations. The capital markets have in the past, and may in the future, experience periods of upheaval that could impact the availability and cost of equity and debt financing. 42 Table of Contents ChargePoint’s principal use of cash in recent periods has been funding its operations and investing in capital expenditures. ChargePoint’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including its revenue growth rate, the timing and the amount of cash received from customers, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, expenses associated with its international expansion, the introduction of network enhancements and the continuing market adoption of its network. In the future, ChargePoint may enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products and technologies. ChargePoint may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that ChargePoint requires additional financing, it may not be able to raise such financing on acceptable terms or at all. If ChargePoint is unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand its operations and invest in continued innovation, it may not be able to compete successfully, which would harm its business, results of operations and financial condition. If adequate funds are not available, ChargePoint may need to reconsider its expansion plans or limit its research and development activities, which could have a material adverse impact on its business prospects and results of operations. Cash Flows For the Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 The following table sets forth a summary of ChargePoint’s cash flows for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended April 30, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Net cash (used in) provided by: Operating activities $ (37,539 ) $ (34,694 ) Investing activities (4,138 ) 39,631 Financing activities 505,988 446 Effects of exchange rates on cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash 7 (56 ) Net increase in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash $ 464,318 $ 5,327 Net Cash Used in Operating Activities During the three months ended April 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $37.5 million, consisting primarily of a net income of $82.3 million, fully offset by an increase in net operating assets of $2.2 million and non-cash charges of $117.6 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements ChargePoint is not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires ChargePoint to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, and base its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that ChargePoint believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for the judgments ChargePoint makes about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because these estimates can vary depending on the situation, actual results may differ from these estimates. Making estimates and judgments about future events is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond ChargePoint’s control. Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, it could have a material impact on ChargePoint’s results of operations, financial position and statement of cash flows. Other than the policies noted in Part I, Item 1, Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s notes to condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to its critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to those disclosed in its audited consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2021 and 2020 and for the years ended January 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. Recent Accounting Pronouncements For a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on ChargePoint’s condensed consolidated financial statements, see Part I, Item 1, Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in its notes to condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 44 Table of Contents
