Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Basis of Presentation References in this document to “the Company,” “LightPath,” “we,” “us,” or “our” are intended to mean LightPath Technologies, Inc., individually, or as the context requires, collectively with its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Exchange Act and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, filed with the SEC. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years or quarters refer to our fiscal years ended June 30 and the associated quarters of those fiscal years. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year as a whole. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies are provided in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , in the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended December 31, 2022, from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Use of Estimates Management makes estimates and assumptions during the preparation of our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that affect amounts reported in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes available, which, in turn, could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. 3. Revenue Product Revenue We are a manufacturer of optical components and higher-level assemblies, including precision molded glass aspheric optics, molded and diamond-turned infrared optical components, and other optical materials used to produce products that manipulate light. We design, develop, manufacture, and distribute optical components and assemblies utilizing advanced optical manufacturing processes. We also perform research and development for optical solutions for a wide range of optics markets. Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of optical components and assemblies. Revenue Recognition Revenue is generally recognized upon transfer of control, including the risks and rewards of ownership, of products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services. We generally bear all costs, risk of loss, or damage and retain title to the goods up to the point of transfer of control of products to customers. Shipping and handling costs are included in the cost of goods sold. We present revenue net of sales taxes and any similar assessments. Customary payment terms are granted to customers, based on credit evaluations. We currently do not have any contracts where revenue is recognized, but the customer payment is contingent on a future event. We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. Deferred revenue was not significant as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022, respectively. 8 Table of Contents Nature of Products Revenue from the sale of optical components and assemblies is recognized upon transfer of control, including the risks and rewards of ownership, to the customer. The performance obligations for the sale of optical components and assemblies are satisfied at a point in time. Product development agreements are generally short-term in nature, with revenue recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation, and transfer of control of the agreed-upon deliverable. We have organized our products in three groups: precision molded optics (“PMO”), infrared, and specialty products. Revenues from product development agreements are included in specialty products. Revenue by product group for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 PMO $ 3,876,627 $ 3,762,497 $ 7,149,182 $ 7,575,447 Infrared Products 4,024,591 5,075,168 7,664,250 9,963,086 Specialty Products 571,461 405,509 1,026,148 807,984 Total revenue $ 8,472,679 $ 9,243,174 $ 15,839,580 $ 18,346,517 4.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets There were no changes in the net carrying value of goodwill during the six months ended December 31, 2022. Identifiable intangible assets were comprised of: Useful Lives (Years) December 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 Customer relationships 15 $ 3,590,000 $ 3,590,000 Trade secrets 8 3,272,000 3,272,000 Trademarks 8 3,814,000 3,814,000 Total intangible assets 10,676,000 10,676,000 Less accumulated amortization ( 6,780,744 ) ( 6,218,202 ) Total intangible assets, net $ 3,895,256 $ 4,457,798 Future amortization of identifiable intangibles is as follows: Fiscal year ending: June 30, 2023 (remaining six months) 562,541 June 30, 2024 1,125,083 June 30, 2025 658,398 June 30, 2026 239,334 After June 30, 2026 1,309,900 $ 3,895,256 7. Income Taxes A summary of our total income tax expense and effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Loss before income taxes $ ( 639,061 ) $ ( 1,019,895 ) $ ( 1,917,627 ) $ ( 1,522,119 ) Income tax provision $ 55,000 $ 35,396 $ 157,134 $ 165,269 Effective income tax rate - 9 % - 3 % - 8 % - 11 % The difference between our effective tax rates in the periods presented above and the federal statutory rate is due to the mix of taxable income and losses generated in our various tax jurisdictions, which include the United States (the “U.S.”), the People’s Republic of China, and the Republic of Latvia. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, income tax expense was primarily related to income taxes from our operations in China, including accruals for withholding taxes on intercompany dividends declared by LightPath Optical Instrumentation (Zhenjiang) Co., Ltd. (“LPOIZ”), and paid or payable to LightPath, its parent company. We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe it is more likely than not that some portion or all of these assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, our net deferred tax assets are related to the U.S. jurisdiction and we have provided for a valuation allowance to reduce the net deferred tax assets to the amount we estimate is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Our net deferred tax asset consists primarily of federal and state tax credits with indefinite carryover periods. 10 Table of Contents U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes Our U.S. federal and state statutory income tax rate is estimated to be 25.5 %. Based on our current assessment of the valuation allowance position on our net deferred tax assets, no additional tax expense or benefit is expected to be recorded on pre-tax income or losses generated in the U.S. Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China Our Chinese subsidiaries, LightPath Optical Instrumentation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“LPOI”) and LPOIZ, are governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China. As of December 31, 2022, LPOI and LPOIZ were subject to statutory income tax rates of 25 % and 15 %, respectively. The net deferred tax liabilities included in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 are related to LPOIZ, and primarily consist of timing differences related to depreciation. During fiscal 2020, the Company began declaring intercompany dividends to remit a portion of the historical earnings of its foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. parent company. The Company intends to reinvest a portion of the more recent earnings generated by its foreign subsidiaries; however, the Company also plans to repatriate a portion of the historical earnings of its subsidiaries. The Company accrues withholding taxes on the portion of LPOIZ’s earnings that it intends to repatriate. Accrued and unpaid withholding taxes were approximately $ 40,000 as of both December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. Other than these withholding taxes, these intercompany dividends have no impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. Law of Corporate Income Tax of Latvia Our Latvian subsidiary, ISP Optics Latvia, SIA (“ISP Latvia”), is governed by the Law of Corporate Income Tax of Latvia. Effective January 1, 2018, the Republic of Latvia enacted tax reform with the following key provisions: (i) corporations are no longer subject to income tax, but are instead subject to a distribution tax on distributed profits (or deemed distributions, as defined) and (ii) the rate of tax was changed to 20 %; however, distribution amounts are first divided by 0.8 to arrive at the profit before tax amount, resulting in an effective tax rate of 25 %. As a transitional measure, distributions of earnings prior to January 1, 2018 are not subject to tax if declared prior to December 31, 2019. ISP Latvia has declared an intercompany dividend to be paid to ISP Optics Corporation (“ISP”), its U.S. parent company, for the full amount of earnings accumulated prior to January 1, 2018. Distributions of this dividend will be from earnings prior to January 1, 2018 and, therefore, will not be subject to tax. We currently do not intend to distribute any earnings generated after January 1, 2018. If, in the future, we change such intention, we will accrue distribution taxes, if any, as profits are generated. 8. Stock-Based Compensation Our directors, officers, and key employees are granted stock-based compensation through our Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Omnibus Plan”), through October 2018 and after that date, through our 2018 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “SICP”). Such stock-based compensation may include, among other things, incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The SICP is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. At our 2018 Annual Stockholders Meeting, our stockholders approved the SICP under which an aggregate of 1,650,870 shares of our Class A common stock were authorized for issuance pursuant to awards granted thereunder. As of December 31, 2022, 1,882,094 shares of Class A common stock are authorized and available for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the SICP. The Company’s executive officers are eligible to earn incentive compensation consisting of equity-based awards, as well as cash bonuses, based on the achievement of certain individual and/or Company performance goals set by the Compensation Committee. The stock-based compensation expense is based primarily on the fair value of the award as of the grant date, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. 11 Table of Contents The following table shows total stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Stock options $ 59,284 $ 25,879 $ 118,049 $ 50,007 RSAs $ 66,850 — $ 66,850 — RSUs $ 361,413 $ 158,659 $ 587,246 251,122 Total $ 487,547 $ 184,538 $ 772,145 $ 301,129 We also adopted the LightPath Technologies, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2014 ESPP”). The 2014 ESPP permits employees to purchase Class A common stock through payroll deductions, subject to certain limitations. A discount of $ 1,954 and $ 2,155 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, is included in SG&A expenses in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, which represents the value of the 10 % discount given to the employees purchasing stock under the 2014 ESPP. Grant Date Fair Values and Underlying Assumptions; Contractual Terms We estimate the fair value of each stock option as of the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model. The fair value of 2014 ESPP shares is the amount of the discount the employee obtains at the date of the purchase transaction. Most stock options granted vest ratably over two to four years and are generally exercisable for ten years. The assumed forfeiture rates used in calculating the fair value of RSU grants was 0%, and the assumed forfeiture rates used in calculating the fair value of options for performance and service conditions were 20% for each of the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The volatility rate and expected term are based on seven-year historical trends in Class A common stock closing prices and actual forfeitures. The interest rate used is the U.S. Treasury interest rate for constant maturities. No stock options were granted during the six months ended December 31, 2022 or during the six months ended December 31, 2021. Restricted Stock Awards RSAs are granted primarily to our executive officers, employees and consultants, and typically vest over a one to three year period from the date of grant, although some may vest immediately upon grant. The stock underlying RSAs is issued upon vesting. Restricted Stock Units RSUs are granted primarily to our directors, although RSU awards may also be made to executive officers, employees and consultants. RSUs typically vest over a one to four year period from the date of grant, although some may vest immediately upon grant. 12 Table of Contents Information Regarding Current Share-Based Compensation Awards A summary of the activity for share-based compensation awards in the six months ended December 31, 2022 is presented below: Stock Options Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) Restricted Stock Awards (RSAs) Weighted- Weighted- Weighted- Weighted- Average Average Average Average Exercise Remaining Remaining Remaining Shares Price Contract Shares Contract Shares Contract June 30, 2022 534,462 $ 2.03 7.0 2,079,669 0.9 — Granted - $ - 523,618 129,604 Exercised - $ - ( 169,273 ) ( 59,809 ) Cancelled/Forfeited - $ - - December 31, 2022 534,462 $ 2.03 6.6 2,434,014 1.5 69,795 1.4 Awards exercisable/ vested as of December 31, 2022 282,756 $ 1.92 6.1 1,703,187 — — Awards unexercisable/ unvested as of December 31, 2022 251,706 $ 2.15 7.2 730,827 1.5 69,795 1.4 534,462 2,434,014 69,795 As of December 31, 2022, there was approximately $ 1.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements (including stock options, RSAs and RSUs) granted.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding, during each period presented. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic earnings (loss) per share, except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue shares of Class A common stock were exercised or converted into shares of Class A common stock. The computations for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share of Class A common stock are described in the following table: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Net loss $ ( 694,061 ) $ ( 1,055,291 ) $ ( 2,074,761 ) $ ( 1,687,388 ) Weighted-average common shares outstanding: Basic number of shares 27,172,226 27,008,748 27,121,583 27,001,360 Effect of dilutive securities: Options to purchase common stock - - - - RSUs and RSAs - - - - Diluted number of shares 27,172,226 27,008,748 27,121,583 27,001,360 Loss per common share: Basic $ ( 0.03 ) $ ( 0.04 ) $ ( 0.08 ) $ ( 0.06 ) Diluted $ ( 0.03 ) $ ( 0.04 ) $ ( 0.08 ) $ ( 0.06 ) The following potential dilutive shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share of Class A common stock, as their effects would be anti-dilutive: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Options to purchase common stock 534,462 420,767 534,462 423,853 RSUs and RSAs 2,248,789 1,102,803 2,154,939 1,819,119 2,783,251 1,523,570 2,689,401 2,242,972 10. Leases Our leases primarily consist of operating leases related to our facilities located in Orlando, Florida; Riga, Latvia; Shanghai, China; and Zhenjiang, China, and finance leases related to certain equipment located in Orlando, Florida. The operating leases for facilities are non-cancelable operating leases, expiring through 2032 . We include options to renew (or terminate) in our lease term, and as part of our right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities, when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. We currently have obligations under three finance lease agreements, entered into during fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2023, with terms ranging from three to five years. The leases are for computer and manufacturing equipment. Our operating lease ROU assets and the related lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. Two of our operating leases include renewal options, which were not included in the measurement of the operating lease ROU assets and related lease liabilities. We previously had two leases for premises comprising our primary facility in Orlando, Florida (the “Orlando Facility”). We assigned one of such leases to a third-party and agreed that we would vacate the premises subject to the assigned lease on November 30, 2022. In December 2022, entered into an agreement with the assignee of such lease that extended our right to occupy the subject premises until February 28, 2023, in consideration of payments of rent through February 28, 2023, and other amounts to the assignee. We amended the second lease for the premises comprising our Orlando Facility in April 2021, and again in September 2021, to extend the term of such lease to a date we anticipate to be in or around December 2032 and to increase the leased space from 26,000 square feet to approximately 58,500 square feet. Effective in January 2022, the terms of our leases in Zhenjiang, China and Riga, Latvia were extended to December 31, 2024 and 2030, respectively . 14 Table of Contents As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Currently, none of our leases include variable lease payments that are dependent on an index or rate. We are responsible for payment of certain real estate taxes, insurance and other expenses on certain of our leases. These amounts are generally considered to be variable and are not included in the measurement of the ROU assets and the related lease liabilities. We generally account for non-lease components, such as maintenance, separately from lease components. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restricted covenants. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We received tenant improvement allowances for each of our two leases with respect to our Orlando Facility. These allowances were used to construct improvements and are included in leasehold improvements and operating lease liabilities. The balances are being amortized over the corresponding lease terms. We are constructing additional tenant improvements in the premises subject to our continuing lease for our Orlando Facility, of which the landlord has agreed to provide $ 2.4 million in tenant improvement allowances. We will fund the balance of the tenant improvement costs, which we estimate will be approximately $ 2.5 million. The components of lease expense were as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Operating lease cost $ 184,424 $ 171,911 $ 415,925 $ 344,141 Finance lease cost: Depreciation of lease assets 34,111 43,825 68,222 91,179 Interest on lease liabilities 1,187 5,315 3,870 11,747 Total finance lease cost 35,298 49,140 72,092 102,926 Total lease cost $ 219,722 $ 221,051 $ 488,017 $ 447,067 Supplemental balance sheet information related to the leases was as follows: Classification December 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 Assets: Operating lease assets Operating lease assets $ 9,894,925 $ 10,420,604 Finance lease assets Property and equipment, net (1) 91,430 61,566 Total lease assets $ 9,986,355 $ 10,482,170 Liabilities: Current: Operating leases Operating lease liabilities, current $ 926,132 $ 965,622 Finance leases Finance lease liabilities, current 43,123 55,348 Noncurrent: Operating leases Operating lease liabilities, less current portion 8,921,735 9,478,077 Finance leases Finance lease liabilities, less current portion 50,460 11,454 Total lease liabilities $ 9,941,450 $ 10,510,501 (1) Finance lease assets were recorded net of accumulated depreciation of approximately $ 55,000 and $ 418,000 as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. 15 Table of Contents Lease term and discount rate information related to leases was as follows: Lease Term and Discount Rate December 31, 2022 Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term (in years) Operating leases 9.7 Finance leases 2.5 Weighted Average Discount Rate Operating leases 2.9 % Finance leases 8.4 % Supplemental cash flow information: Six Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash used for operating leases $ 523,157 $ 448,485 Operating cash used for finance leases $ 2,286 $ 11,747 Financing cash used for finance leases $ 57,140 $ 113,298 Future maturities of lease liabilities were as follows as of December 31, 2022: Fiscal year ending: Finance Leases Operating Leases June 30, 2023 (remaining six months) $ 23,023 $ 240,823 June 30, 2024 43,683 1,046,659 June 30, 2025 31,872 1,222,871 June 30, 2026 9,557 1,193,987 June 30, 2027 - 1,165,786 Thereafter - 6,938,805 Total future minimum payments 108,135 11,808,931 Less imputed interest ( 14,552 ) ( 1,961,064 ) Present value of lease liabilities $ 93,583 $ 9,847,867 11. Loans Payable As of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, loans payable primarily consisted of the BankUnited Term Loan (as defined below) payable to BankUnited N.A. (“BankUnited”). On February 26, 2019, we entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with BankUnited for (i) a revolving line of credit up to a maximum amount of $ 2,000,000 (the “BankUnited Revolving Line”), (ii) a term loan in the amount of up to $ 5,813,500 (“BankUnited Term Loan”), and (iii) a non-revolving guidance line of credit up to a maximum amount of $ 10,000,000 (the “Guidance Line” and, together with the BankUnited Revolving Line and BankUnited Term Loan, the “BankUnited Loans”), which Guidance Line has since been terminated. Each of the BankUnited Loans is evidenced by a promissory note in favor of BankUnited (the “BankUnited Notes”). 16 Table of Contents On May 6, 2019, we entered into that certain First Amendment to Loan Agreement, effective February 26, 2019, with BankUnited (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amended the definition of the fixed charge coverage ratio to more accurately reflect the parties’ understandings at the time the Loan Agreement was executed. On September 9, 2021, we entered into a letter agreement with BankUnited (the “Letter Agreement”). The Letter Agreement: (i) reduced the fixed charge coverage ratio to 1.0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and to 1.1 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 ; (ii) modified the calculation for both the fixed charge coverage ratio and the total leverage ratio to provide for adjustments related to expenses incurred in connection with the employee matters that occurred during fiscal 2021 at LPOI and LPOIZ, which expenses must be approved by BankUnited; (iii) terminated the Guidance Line; and (iv) required approval from BankUnited prior to our being able to draw upon the Revolving Line, subject to our compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021. The Letter Agreement also granted us a waiver of default arising prior to the Letter Agreement for our failure to comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio measured on June 30, 2021. Based on the waiver, we were no longer in default of the Amended Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2021. Finally, in connection with the Letter Agreement, we paid BankUnited a fee equal to $10,000. On November 5, 2021, we entered into a second letter agreement with BankUnited (the “Second Letter Agreement”)and thereafter, in accordance with the Second Letter Agreement, on December 20, 2021, we entered into the Second Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Second Amendment”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited. In accordance with the Second Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) a maturity date of April 15, 2023 with respect to the Term Loan (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement); (ii) an increased monthly payment amount of $ 100,000 commencing on November 1, 2022; (iii) beginning on December 20, 2021, each facility will bear interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points (7.0% as of December 31, 2022), as adjusted from time to time; (iv) an exit fee equal to 4 % of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan on April 15, 2023 (to the extent the Term Loan is still outstanding on such date and has not been refinanced with another lender); and (v) a fee of $ 50,000 payable upon execution of the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment also granted us a waiver of compliance for the Financial Covenants (as set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement) for the periods ended December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. On May 11, 2022, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Third Amendment”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited. In accordance with the Third Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) an amended maturity date of April 15, 2024 with respect to the Term Loan (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement); and (ii) an amended exit fee equal to (a) 2% of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan on September 30, 2022, (b) 1% of the outstanding principal balance on December 31, 2022, (c) 1% of the outstanding principal balance on March 31, 2023, and (d) 4% of the outstanding principal balance on April 15, 2024 (to the extent the Term Loan is still outstanding on the respective dates and has not been refinanced with another lender) . Prior to September 30, 2022, BankUnited agreed to defer the exit fee that would have been due on September 30, 2022 to October 30, 2022, and reduce the amount to 1%. On December 31, 2022, BankUnited agreed to reduce the December 31, 2022 penalty to 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance as of that date. On February 7, 2023, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Fourth Amendment” and, together with the First Amendment, the Letter Agreement and the Second Letter Agreement, the Second Amendment, and the Third Amendment, the “Amended Loan Agreement”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited. In accordance with the Fourth Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) an amended maturity date of December 31, 2024 with respect to the Term Loan (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement); and (ii) an amended exit fee equal to (a) 1 % of the outstanding principal balance on December 31, 2023 and (d) 4% of the outstanding principal balance on December 31, 2024 (to the extent the Term Loan is still outstanding on the respective dates and has not been refinanced with another lender), (iii) a principal reduction payment of $ 1,000,000 on or before February 28, 2023, (iv) commencing on March 1, 2023 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until December 31, 2023, monthly payments of $ 75,000 , and commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, monthly payments of $ 100,000 , with each such payment applied first to interest, costs and expenses and then to principal, (v) commencing on March 1, 2023, each facility will bear interest at BankUnited’s then prime rate of interest ( 7.5 % as of December 31, 2022), and (vi) BankUnited has waived compliance with certain financial covenants until December 31, 2023. BankUnited Revolving Line Pursuant to the BankUnited Loan Agreement, BankUnited agreed to make loan advances under the BankUnited Revolving Line to us up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed $2,000,000, which proceeds could have been used for working capital and general corporate purposes. There were no amounts outstanding on the BankUnited Revolving Line as of June 30, 2021 and no amounts were due upon its expiration on February 26, 2022. 17 Table of Contents BankUnited Term Loan Pursuant to the BankUnited Loan Agreement, BankUnited advanced us $ 5,813,500 to satisfy in full the amounts owed to Avidbank, including the outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest under the acquisition term loan and to pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the BankUnited Loans. The Term Loan was for a 5 -year term, but co-terminus with the BankUnited Revolving Line should the BankUnited Revolving Line not be renewed beyond February 26, 2022. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan was extended to April 15, 2023, and pursuant to the Third Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan was extended to April 15, 2024. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan was extended to December 31, 2024. The Term Loan initially bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 2.75 % above the 30-day LIBOR. However, pursuant to the Second Amendment, beginning on December 20, 2021, each facility bears interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points ( 7.0 % as of December 31, 2022), as adjusted from time to time and pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, beginning on March 1, 2023, each facility will bear interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest ( 7.5 % as of December 31, 2022). Equal monthly principal payments of approximately $ 48,446 , plus accrued interest, were due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month during the term; provided that, pursuant to the Second Amendment, the monthly payments, including principal and interest, increased to $100,000 on November 1, 2022. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, monthly payments, including principal and interest, shall decrease to $75,000, but shall increase to $100,000 on January 1, 2024 . Upon maturity, all principal and interest shall be immediately due and payable. Security and Guarantees Our obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in all of our assets and the assets of our U.S. subsidiaries, GelTech, Inc. (“GelTech”), and ISP, pursuant to a Security Agreement granted by GelTech, ISP, and us in favor of BankUnited. Our equity interests in, and the assets of, our foreign subsidiaries are excluded from the security interest. In addition, all of our subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement and related documents, pursuant to Guaranty Agreements executed by us and our subsidiaries in favor of BankUnited. General Terms The Amended Loan Agreement contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to: (i) limitations on the disposition of property; (ii) limitations on changing our business or permitting a change in control; (iii) limitations on additional indebtedness or encumbrances; (iv) restrictions on distributions; and (v) limitations on certain investments. The Amended Loan Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including obligations to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 and a total leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00 . Pursuant to the Third Amendment, compliance for both the fixed charge coverage ratio and total leverage ratio was waived for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, and we were in compliance with all other required covenants, as amended. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the financial covenants are waived until December 31, 2023. We may prepay any or all of the BankUnited Loans in whole or in part at any time, without penalty or premium, other than the exit fees, as discussed above. Late payments are subject to a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid amount. Amounts outstanding during an event of default were to accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) above the 30-day LIBOR applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the event of default. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, beginning on December 20, 2021, the default rate was converted to five percent (5%) above BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points, as adjusted from time to time. The Amended Loan Agreement contains other customary provisions with respect to events of default, expense reimbursement, and others. Financing costs incurred related to the BankUnited Loans were recorded as a discount on debt and will be amortized over the term. Amortization of approximately $ 37,100 and $ 14,900 is included in interest expense for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In December 2020, ISP Latvia entered into an equipment loan with a third party (the “Equipment Loan”), which party is also a significant customer, and which the Equipment Loan is subordinate to the BankUnited Loans, and collateralized by certain equipment. The initial advance under the Equipment Loan was 225,000 EUR (or USD $ 275,000 ), payable in equal installments over 60 months, the proceeds of which were used to make a prepayment to a vendor for equipment to be delivered at a future date. An additional 225,000 EUR (or USD $ 267,000 ) was drawn in September 2021, which proceeds were paid to the vendor for the equipment, payable in equal installments over 52 months. The Equipment Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.3 %. 18 Table of Contents Future maturities of loans payable are as follows: BankUnited Term Loan Equipment Loan Unamortized Debt Costs Total Fiscal year ending: June 30, 2023 (remaining six months) $ 482,085 $ 52,232 ( 21,653 ) $ 512,664 June 30, 2024 3,086,415 104,464 — 3,190,879 June 30, 2025 — 104,464 — 104,464 June 30, 2026 — 43,527 — 43,527 After June 30, 2026 — — — — Total payments $ 3,568,500 $ 304,687 $ ( 21,653 ) 3,851,534 Less current portion ( 1,085,103 ) Non-current portion $ 2,766,431 12 . Foreign Operations Assets and liabilities denominated in non-U.S. currencies are translated at rates of exchange prevailing on the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange for the period. Gains or losses on the translation of the financial statements of a non-U.S. operation, where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, are reflected as a separate component of equity, which was a cumulative gain of approximately $ 688,000 and $ 935,000 as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. We also recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of $ 29,000 and $ 14,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of $ 7,000 and $ 40,000 , respectively, included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the line item entitled “Other income (expense), net.” Our cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $ 3.8 million at December 31, 2022. Of this amount, greater than 50% was held by our foreign subsidiaries in China and Latvia. These foreign funds were generated in China and Latvia as a result of foreign earnings. With respect to the funds generated by our foreign subsidiaries in China, the retained earnings of the respective subsidiary must equal at least 50 % of its registered capital before any funds can be repatriated through dividends. As of December 31, 2022, LPOIZ had approximately $ 3.9 million in retained earnings available for repatriation, and LPOI did not have any earnings available for repatriation, based on earnings accumulated through December 31, 2022, the end of the most recent statutory tax year, that remained undistributed as of December 31, 2022. Assets and net assets in foreign countries are as follows: China Latvia December 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 December 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 Assets $ 17.9 million $ 19.6 million $ 13.2 million $ 12.7 million Net assets $ 13.9 million $ 15.7 million $ 10.1 million $ 10.0 million 13. Contingencies Legal The Company from time to time is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Management, after reviewing with legal counsel all of these actions and proceedings, believes that the aggregate losses, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In April 2021, we terminated several employees of our China subsidiaries, LPOIZ and LPOI, including the General Manager, the Sales Manager, and the Engineering Manager, after determining that they had engaged in malfeasance and conduct adverse to our interests, including efforts to misappropriate certain of our proprietary technology, diverting sales to entities owned or controlled by these former employees and other suspected acts of fraud, theft and embezzlement. In connection with such terminations, our China subsidiaries have engaged in certain legal proceedings with the terminated employees. 19 Table of Contents We have incurred various expenses associated with its investigation into these matters prior and subsequent to the termination of the employees and the associated legal proceedings. These expenses, which included legal, consulting and other transitional management fees, totaled $ 718,000 and $ 400,000 during the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2022, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, expenses incurred related to the legal proceedings were immaterial. Such expenses were recorded as SG&A expenses in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Knowing that employee transitions in international subsidiaries can lead to lengthy legal proceedings that can interrupt the subsidiary’s ability to operate, compounded by the fact that our officers could not travel to China to oversee the transitions because of the travel restrictions imposed by COVID-19, we chose to enter into severance agreements with certain of the employees at the time of termination. Pursuant to the severance agreements, LPOIZ and LPOI agreed to pay such employees severance of approximately $ 485,000 in the aggregate, to be paid over a six-month period following the terminations in April 2021. After the execution of the severance agreements, we discovered additional wrongdoing by the terminated employees. As a result, LPOIZ and LPOI have disputed the employees’ rights to such payments and did not immediately begin making the severance payments. However, based on the likelihood that the courts in China would determine that our subsidiaries would ultimately be obligated to pay these amounts, we accrued for these payments as of June 30, 2021 and they remained accrued as of June 30, 2022. Such expenses were recorded as SG&A expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the year ended June 30, 2021. In October 2022, the severance amounts were paid to the court in accordance with a court order. We have transitioned the management of LPOI and LPOIZ to a new management team without any significant detrimental effects on the ability of those subsidiaries to operate. We have not experienced any material adverse impact to the business operations of LPOI or LPOIZ as a result of the transition. We expect to incur minimal additional legal fees and consulting expenses in future periods as we have exhausted nearly all of our legal options and remedies. Although we have taken steps to minimize the business impacts from the termination of the management employees and transition to new management personnel, we have experienced some short-term adverse impacts on LPOIZ’s and LPOI’s domestic sales in China and results of operations in the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The Company has not experienced, nor does management anticipate, any material adverse impact on LPOIZ’s or LPOI’s production and supply of products to its other subsidiaries for their customers. COVID-19 Our business, results of operations financial condition, cash flows, and the stock price of our Class A common stock can be adversely affected by pandemics, epidemics, or other public health emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and its lasting impacts. To date, we have not experienced any significant direct financial impact of COVID-19 to our business. However, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact economic conditions, particularly in China, which has impacted the short-term and long-term demand from customers and, therefore, has negatively impacted our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position in that region. Additionally, some areas still have travel restrictions in place, which has impacted some aspects of our operations that depend on travel, such as recruitment of senior positions, and travel of service providers to maintain our production equipment. Management is actively monitoring this situation and taking steps to mitigate the impact on our financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations globally. However, we are not able to precisely estimate the effects of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic on our future results of operations, financial, or liquidity for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 or beyond. Impact of Russian-Ukraine Conflict In February 2022, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine. This conflict has resulted in significant economic disruption and continues to adversely impact the broader global economy, including certain of our customers and suppliers. Given the dynamic nature of this situation, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the Russian-Ukraine conflict on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows into the foreseeable future. 20 Table of Contents Potential Impact of Economic Conditions in China Due to our operations in China, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by economic, political, legal and social conditions in China. China’s economy differs from the economies of other countries in many respects, including with respect to the level of development, growth rate, amount of government involvement, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While China’s economy has experienced significant growth over the past several decades, its growth rate has declined in recent years and may continue to decline. Deteriorating economic conditions in China generally and as a result of China’s zero-COVID strategy, have led to lower demand for our products in China and thus lower revenues and net income for our subsidiaries in China and the Company overall. A continuation of China’s current economic conditions or a further slowdown in the economic growth, an economic downturn, a recession, or other adverse economic conditions in China is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations in future quarters. 14. Liquidity We generally rely on cash from operations and equity and debt offerings, to the extent available, to satisfy our liquidity needs and to maintain our ability to repay the BankUnited Term Loan. As discussed in in Note 11, Loans Payable, on February 7, 2023, we entered into the Fourth Amendment with BankUnited to amend the BankUnited Loan Agreement. In accordance with the Fourth Amendment, the parties agreed to a further extension of the term, and reduced payments beginning March 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, among other items. On February 16, 2022, we filed a shelf registration statement to facilitate the issuance of our Class A common stock, warrants exercisable for shares of our Class A common stock, and/or units up to an aggregate offering price of $ 75.8 million from time to time. In connection with the filing of the shelf registration statement, we also included a prospectus supplement relating to an at-the-market equity program under which we may issue and sell shares of our Class A common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $ 25.2 million from time to time, decreasing the aggregate offering price available under the shelf registration statement to $ 50.6 million. The shelf registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on March 1, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, we had not issued any shares of its Class A common stock pursuant to the at-the-market equity program. On January 12, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell in a public offering under the shelf registration statement an aggregate of 9,090,910 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share for a purchase price of $ 1.10 per share and filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC related thereto. The sale of shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement closed on January 17, 2023, and resulted in net proceeds of approximately $9.2 million after payment of placement agent fees, and certain other costs and expenses of the offering. Following this equity raise, we do not expect to need additional equity capital for the foreseeable future, however there are a number of factors that could result in the need to raise additional funds, including a decline in revenue or a lack of anticipated sales growth, increased material costs, increased labor costs, planned production efficiency improvements not being realized, increases in property, casualty, benefit and liability insurance premiums, and increases in other costs. In addition, we may identify opportunities for acquisitions and other strategic transactions to expand and further enhance our business that may require that we raise additional capital should be elect to pursue any of such transactions. 21 Table of Contents
