Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. All statements, other than statements of present or historical fact included in this Quarterly Report regarding our future financial performance, as well as our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues, losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. Any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions, hopes, beliefs, intentions and strategies regarding future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. Although we believe such expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. All readers are cautioned that the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are not guarantees of future performance and we cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or that the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur.
As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, our actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include:
our ability to fund our future cash obligations and continue as a going concern;
our ability to access sources of capital to finance our operations and future capital requirements;
our financial and business performance, including risk of uncertainty in our financial projections and business metrics and any underlying assumptions thereunder;
the delisting of our common stock and public warrants from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and the commencement of trading of our common stock and public warrants in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market;
changes in our business and strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans;
our ability to execute our business model, including market acceptance of our planned products and services and achieving sufficient production volumes at acceptable quality levels and prices;
changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, legal conditions and applicable laws and regulations;
our ability to grow market share in our existing markets or any new markets we may enter;
our ability to achieve and maintain profitability in the future;
our ability to maintain and enhance our products and brand, and to attract and retain customers;
our ability to find new partners for product offerings;
the success of strategic relationships with third parties;
our ability to scale in a cost-effective manner;
developments and projections relating to our competitors and industry;
supply chain disruptions;
our ability to protect our intellectual property (“IP”);

3

the actions of stockholders and the related impact on the price of our common stock;
expectations regarding the time during which we will be an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended;
our ability to find and retain critical employee talent and key personnel;
our ability to successfully manage changes in our executive team;
the possibility that we may be adversely impacted by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;
future exchange and interest rates;
the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings; and
other risks and uncertainties, including those disclosed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2024 and the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in other filings that have been made or will be made with the SEC by the Company.
Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Our SEC filings are available publicly on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
You should read this Quarterly Report with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity and performance as well as other events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Heliogen, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation
Background
Heliogen, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Heliogen” or the “Company”), is involved in the development and commercialization of next-generation concentrated solar energy. We are developing a modular, artificial intelligence enabled, concentrated solar energy plant that will use an array of mirrors to reflect sunlight and capture, concentrate, store and convert it into cost-effective energy on demand. Unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise, references in our consolidated financial statements to “we,” “us,” or “our” and similar expressions refer to Heliogen.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, these unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information or notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair statement.
The results reported in these unaudited consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2024.
Certain immaterial prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Such changes did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Reverse Stock Split
On August 31, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-35 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the reverse stock split, every 35 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock as of 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on August 31, 2023 was automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, with no change in par value per share. No fractional shares of common stock were issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares in connection with the reverse stock split were rounded down to the nearest whole share and cash payments were made to the stockholders. The reverse stock split had no impact on the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue pursuant to its certificate of incorporation. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company's equity awards and warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price. All share and per share information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the reverse stock split.
Liquidity and Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

11

Heliogen, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had liquidity of $60.7 million, consisting of $58.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $2.5 million of investments and no debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of $15.2 million and used cash in operations of $14.3 million. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses and have significant cash outflows from operating activities for at least the next few years. Based on these factors, the Company anticipates that it may not have sufficient resources to fund its cash obligations for the next 12 months after the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has evaluated the conditions discussed above and is taking various steps in an effort to alleviate them. The Company is exploring various cost saving opportunities and intends to continue seeking opportunities to generate additional revenue through its commercialization of engineering services. The Company has also engaged a financial advisor and is actively assessing various avenues to secure additional capital, including, but not limited to, the issuance of debt, equity or both. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Despite our intention to establish accurate estimates and reasonable assumptions, actual results could differ materially from such estimates and assumptions.

Note 2—Revenue
Disaggregated Revenue
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue:

Engineering services revenue421 50 
Total services revenue954 866 
Grant revenue574 1,071 
Total revenue$1,528 $1,937 
Services Revenue
Project revenue consists of amounts recognized under contracts with customers for the development, construction and delivery of commercial-scale concentrated solar energy facilities. The Company’s recognized project revenue is associated with a commercial-scale demonstration agreement (“CSDA”) executed with Woodside Energy (USA) Inc. (“Woodside”) in March 2022 for the engineering, procurement and construction of a new 5 MWe concentrated solar energy facility to be built in Mojave, California (the “Capella Project”) for the customer’s use in research, development and testing.
Engineering services revenue consists of amounts recognized under contracts with customers for the provision of engineering, research and development (“R&D”), or other similar services in our field of expertise. The Company’s recognized engineering services revenue is associated with engineering studies and projects in the United States (“U.S.”) and Europe.

12

Heliogen, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Grant Revenue
The Company’s grant revenue is primarily related to the Company’s award from the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE Award”) for costs incurred during such periods that are reimbursable under the DOE Award.
Contract Estimates
In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company adjusted its Capella Project estimate after completing the front-end engineering design phase. Our current cost estimates for the Capella Project are subject to further refinement as we continue value engineering, exploring additional cost savings opportunities and continue to negotiate an executable engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) contract. As a result, the actual cost for the Capella Project could vary from our current estimate.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized a total provision for contract losses of $0.4 million associated with our projects in Germany. No provision for contract losses was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
We amortized $0.8 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, of the previously recognized contract loss provisions as a reduction to cost of services revenue incurred during the periods based on percentages of completion.
Performance Obligations
Revenue recognized under contracts with customers, which excludes amounts to be received from government grants, relates solely to the performance obligations satisfied during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 with no revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods.
As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $37.7 million of transaction prices allocated to remaining performance obligations from our customer contracts. Based on our current forecast, we expect to recognize approximately 28% of the remaining transaction prices as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder to be recognized thereafter through 2027.

Customer Concentrations
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, two customers, including governmental entities, each comprised greater than 10% of our total revenue and collectively represented 95% and 97%, respectively, of our total revenue.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, two customers, including governmental entities, each comprised greater than 10% of our total receivables and represented 83% and 89%, respectively, of our total receivables.

Note 3—Warrants
Public Warrants and Private Warrants
The Company’s warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2024 include public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and private placement warrants (the “Private Warrants,” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Public and Private Warrants”). The Public Warrants and Private Warrants permit warrant holders to purchase in the aggregate 238,095 shares and 6,667 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $402.50 per share. The Public and Private Warrants became exercisable on March 18, 2022 and expire on December 30, 2026, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Public and Private Warrants are recorded as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and measured at fair value at each reporting date, with the change in fair value included in gain (loss) on warrant remeasurement on the consolidated statements of operations.
Project Warrants
In connection with the execution of the CSDA with Woodside in March 2022, the Company issued warrants permitting Woodside to purchase 26,068 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.35 per share (the “Project Warrants”). The Project Warrants expire upon the earlier of a change in control of the Company or March 28, 2027 and vest pro rata with certain payments required to be made by Woodside under the CSDA. The fair value of the Project Warrants upon issuance was $173.60 per warrant based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on March 28, 2022, less the exercise price. The Project Warrants are recorded as equity on the consolidated balance sheets.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, was recognized as additional paid-in capital related to the vesting of Project Warrants. As of March 31, 2024, vested Project Warrants were exercisable for 13,675 shares of the Company’s common stock.

14

Heliogen, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Collaboration Warrants
In connection with the execution of a collaboration agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with Woodside in March 2022, the Company issued warrants permitting Woodside to purchase 104,275 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.35 per share (the “Collaboration Warrants”). Under the Collaboration Agreement, Woodside will assist us in defining product offerings that use our modular technology for potential customers. The Collaboration Warrants expire upon the earlier of a change in control of the Company or March 28, 2027. Of these warrants, (i) half of the warrants vested immediately upon execution of the Collaboration Agreement, to purchase 52,138 shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) the remaining warrants will vest based on certain specified performance goals under the Collaboration Agreement. The fair value of the Collaboration Warrants upon issuance was $173.60 per warrant based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on March 28, 2022, less the exercise price.
The Collaboration Warrants are recorded as equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the related expense is recognized ratably as selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense for marketing services to be provided over the estimated service period. The Company recognized SG&A expense, related to the vesting of the Collaboration Warrants, of $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we fully impaired the Collaboration Warrants and recognized the remaining expense as an impairment charge on our consolidated statements of operations.

Note 5—Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized in the following table by fair value measurement level:

(1)Included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Private Warrants. The fair value of the Private Warrants approximates the fair value of the Public Warrants due to the existence of similar redemption provisions. As a result, the Company has determined that the fair value of the Private Warrants at a specific date would be similar to that of the Public Warrants, and thus the fair value is determined by using the closing price of the Public Warrants, which was $0.01 as of March 31, 2024.
Contingent Consideration. In connection with the acquisition of HelioHeat GmbH in September 2021, part of the fair value of the consideration transferred was contingent consideration. The contingent consideration was classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy and measured at fair value using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model utilizing estimated timing for the commissioning and required operational period of a commercial facility using the acquired particle receiver technology.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the contingent consideration was zero. The following table summarizes the activities of our Level 3 fair value measurement for the three months ended March 31, 2023:

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 9—Equity
Stockholders Rights Plan
On April 16, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (“Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock to the stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 28, 2023, and adopted a limited duration stockholder rights plan, as set forth in the Rights Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2023 (the “Rights Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as rights agent. The Rights will be exercisable only if a person or group (an “acquiring person”) acquires or launches a tender or exchange offer to acquire beneficial ownership (which includes certain synthetic equity interests) of 12.5% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock (20% for certain passive institutional investors as described in the Rights Agreement) without the approval of the Board. Under the original terms of the Rights Agreement, once the Rights become exercisable, each Right will entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person, whose rights will become void) to purchase for $122.50, subject to adjustment, additional shares of our common stock having a market value of twice such exercise price. In addition, the Rights Agreement has customary flip-over and exchange features. On April 16, 2024, the Rights Agreement was amended to extend the final expiration date of the Rights Agreement by one year such that the Rights will now expire on April 17, 2025. Refer to Note 16—Subsequent Events for additional information.
The Rights Agreement will reduce the likelihood that any entity, person or group gains control of Heliogen through open market accumulation without paying all stockholders an appropriate control premium or without providing our Board sufficient time to make informed judgments and take actions that are in the best interests of all stockholders.

Note 12—Impairment Charges
During the first quarter of 2023, we assessed our goodwill for impairment due to a sustained decrease in the Company’s market capitalization. The Company concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying amount as of March 31, 2023. As a result, we fully impaired goodwill and recorded an impairment of $1.0 million during the first quarter of 2023.

Heliogen, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 13—Income Taxes
We calculate our quarterly tax provision pursuant to the guidelines in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires companies to estimate the annual effective tax rate for current year ordinary income. The estimated annual effective tax rate represents the Company’s estimate of the tax provision in relation to the best estimate of pre-tax ordinary income or loss. The estimated annual effective tax rate is then applied to year-to-date ordinary income or loss to calculate the year-to-date interim tax provision. The relationship between our income tax provision or benefit and our pre-tax book income or loss can vary significantly from period to period considering, among other factors, the overall level of pre-tax book income or loss and changes in the blend of jurisdictional income or loss that is taxed at different rates and changes in valuation allowances. The income tax provision was $2 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Any income tax benefit associated with the pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, resulting primarily from the U.S. jurisdiction, is offset by a full valuation allowance.

Note 14—Related Party Transactions
NantG Power, LLC
On March 24, 2023, Heliogen entered into an agreement with NantG Power, LLC (“NantG”), an affiliated sister-company to Nant Capital LLC, a holder of more than 5% of Heliogen’s outstanding voting stock, to provide front-end concept design and R&D engineering services. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $86 thousand of services revenue from NantG. The Company did not recognize any revenue from NantG during the three months ended March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had outstanding accounts receivable of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, with NantG.

Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims and other miscellaneous claims. We recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Note 16—Subsequent Events
Stockholder Matters
As previously reported, on November 7, 2023, the NYSE notified the Company that it had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock and Public Warrants from the NYSE. Trading in these securities was immediately suspended. The NYSE reached its decision to delist these securities pursuant to Section 802.01B because the Company had fallen below the NYSE’s continued listing standard requiring listed companies to maintain an average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading day period of at least $15 million. The Company subsequently appealed the delisting determination.
On April 15, 2024, the Company notified the NYSE that the Company intends to withdraw its appeal of the delisting determination and the Company expects the NYSE to promptly file with the SEC a Notification of Removal From Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on Form 25 in order to delist the Company’s common stock and public warrants from the NYSE and deregister the Company’s common stock and public warrants under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included in the fore-part in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (our “Quarterly Report”) and included in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”), as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2024.
The following MD&A should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Part I Item 1 in this Quarterly Report and our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, included in our Annual Report.
Overview
Heliogen, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Heliogen,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a leader in next generation concentrated solar energy. We are developing a modular, artificial intelligence enabled, concentrated solar energy plant that will use an array of mirrors to reflect sunlight and capture, concentrate, store and convert it into cost-effective energy on demand. Our product offering will deliver industrial process steam around the clock using thermal energy storage based on proven technology. This steam can also be used to produce electricity when paired with a steam turbine and green hydrogen when coupled with a solid oxide electrolyzer. Our next-generation system will be able to cost-effectively generate and store thermal energy at very high temperatures, enabling more cost-effective production of electricity at a smaller scale. The inclusion of a thermal energy storage system distinguishes our solution from clean energy provided by typical photovoltaic and wind installations which do not produce thermal energy and are only able to produce energy intermittently unless battery storage is added. The system will be configurable for several applications, including carbon-free industrial-grade heat and steam (for use in industrial processes), clean power (electricity), and generation of green hydrogen, based on a customer’s needs.
Recent Developments
U.S. Department of Energy Award. Budget approved and finalized for $4.0 million award from the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE”) to accelerate the large-scale development and deployment of a solar thermal calciner to decarbonize cement production.
Stockholder Matters. On November 7, 2023, we received a letter from the NYSE notifying us that it had determined to commence proceedings to delist our common stock and Public Warrants from the NYSE pursuant to Section 802.01B.

How We Generate Revenue
We primarily generate revenue by contracting with owner-operators to build turnkey facilities that deploy Heliogen’s technology. Our services revenue which is derived from customer contracts, is primarily recognized over time using the incurred costs method for our contracts with customers that include projects under development and engineering and design services. Engineering service contracts can be short-term or span several years and we recognize revenue over time as customers receive and consume the benefit of such services. Additionally, we have government grants which are accounted for as grant revenue and are recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant funds will be received.
In March 2022, we secured a contract to engineer and construct a 5 MWe commercial-scale concentrated solar energy facility (the “Capella Project”) with Woodside Energy (USA) Inc. (“Woodside”) in Mojave, California with a total transaction price of $45.5 million and received an award from the DOE of $39.0 million (the “DOE Award”) to support the Capella Project, of which $3.9 million will be paid directly by the DOE to another party providing services under the DOE Award at our direction.
Cost of Conducting Our Business
Cost of revenue consists primarily of direct material, labor and subcontractor costs related to our revenue contracts. Additionally, we have indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and allocated depreciation.

Revenue and Gross Profit (Loss)
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized total revenue of $1.5 million, a decrease of $0.4 million compared to total revenue of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
We recognized services revenue of $1.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $0.1 million compared to services revenue of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in services revenue is primarily due to an increase in engineering services performed during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was offset by a reduction in revenue recognized on the Capella Project during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, resulting from a decrease in the cost incurred on the project.
We recognized grant revenue of $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of $0.5 million compared to grant revenue of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by a decrease in reimbursable costs incurred on the Capella Project under the DOE Award for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized a gross profit of $0.1 million, a change of $0.5 million compared to gross loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The change was primarily driven by the recognition of a contract loss provision during the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $0.4 million primarily related to our German operations.
Selling, General and Administrative

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized SG&A expense of $12.4 million, an increase of $8.2 million compared to SG&A expense of $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a one-time reversal of share-based compensation of $12.5 million during the first quarter of 2023, as a result of stock options forfeited in connection with the termination of our former Chief Executive Officer, as well as an overall reduction in share-based compensation expense due to forfeitures. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $0.9 million in employee compensation primarily driven by headcount reductions in 2023 and a decrease of $0.4 million in reorganization costs related to employee severance and related benefits.

Research and Development
The following table summarizes research and development (“R&D”) expenses:

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized R&D expense of $3.8 million, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to R&D expense of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by a decrease of $1.3 million in employee compensation primarily due to headcount reductions in 2023 and a decrease of $0.1 million in share-based compensation expense.
Impairment Charges
During the first quarter of 2023, we fully impaired goodwill, resulting in a $1.0 million impairment charge due to a sustained decrease in our market capitalization. We had no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and investments on hand, which are short-term in duration and highly liquid, and cash receipts from customers and government grants. Our principal uses of cash are expenditures related to project development and completion, as well as R&D and SG&A expenditures in support of our technology development and operational support and growth efforts.
Total liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale investments are as follows:
$ in thousandsMay 2, 2024March 31, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents$59,284 $58,235 
Investments— 2,491 
Total liquidity$59,284 $60,726 
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2024, our liquidity was $60.7 million and we had an accumulated deficit of $453.4 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss of $15.2 million and used cash in operations of $14.3 million. We expect to continue to generate operating losses and have significant cash outflows from operating activities for at least the next few years. Based on our liquidity position as of March 31, 2024 and our current forecast of operating results and cash flows, we anticipate that we may not have sufficient resources to fund our cash obligations for the next 12 months after the issuance date of this Quarterly Report. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

26

We have evaluated the conditions discussed above and we are taking various steps in an effort to alleviate them. We are exploring various cost saving opportunities and intend to continue seeking opportunities to generate additional revenue through our commercialization of engineering services. We have also engaged a financial advisor and we are actively assessing various avenues to secure additional capital, including, but not limited to, the issuance of debt, equity or both. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. If we are unable to effectively implement additional cost reductions, generate additional revenue or raise additional funding, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of our commercialization efforts, product expansion or R&D programs and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Assuming no additional funding and based on our current operating and development plans, we expect that existing liquidity as of the date of this filing will be sufficient to fund currently anticipated operating expenses through the end of 2024.
Summary of Cash Flows
The following table provides a summary of our cash flows:
Three Months Ended

Net Cash from Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $24.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The $9.8 million decrease in the net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by reductions in headcount and discretionary spending as we focused on cost saving opportunities.
Net Cash from Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received proceeds from the maturities of available-for-sale securities of $10.0 million to fund our operations, partially offset by capital expenditures of $0.2 million.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we received net proceeds from the maturities of available-for-sale securities of $17.8 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $0.5 million.
Net Cash from Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities was $17 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we paid $17 thousand related to taxes for net-share settlement of share-based compensation. For three months ended March 31, 2023, we received proceeds of $0.2 million from stock option exercises.
Cash Requirements
Our material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations consist of our long-term operating leases, which are primarily for real estate. Refer to Note 11—Leases to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report, for additional information regarding maturity analysis of our operating leases.
Critical Accounting Estimates
There have been no material changes to our discussion of critical accounting estimates from those set forth in our Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, and as a result of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in our Annual Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In January 2024, we had changes to our executive team. Our Chief Financial Officer resigned effective January 11, 2024 and the Board appointed an Interim Chief Financial Officer. In addition, our Chief Accounting Officer resigned effective January 26, 2024 and a new Chief Accounting Officer was appointed at the same time. In March 2024, the Board appointed a new Chief Financial Officer effective April 1, 2024. Other than in connection with changes in personnel and executing upon the implementation of the remediation measures described in our Annual Report and the associated changes to our internal control over financial reporting, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Information relating to various commitments and contingencies is described in Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies to our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
There are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report, other than as set forth below.
Our common stock and Public Warrants have been delisted from the NYSE and are not listed on any other national securities exchange.
On November 7, 2023, we received a letter from the staff of NYSE Regulation notifying us that it had determined to commence proceedings to delist our common stock and public warrants (“Public Warrants”). Trading in these securities was immediately suspended. The NYSE Regulation reached its decision to delist these securities pursuant to Section 802.01B of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual because we had fallen below the NYSE’s continued listing standard requiring listed companies to maintain an average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading day period of at least $15 million. On April 15, 2024, we notified the NYSE that we intended to withdraw our appeal of the delisting determination and we expect the NYSE to promptly file with the SEC a Notification of Removal From Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on Form 25 in order to delist our common stock and Public Warrants from the NYSE and deregister our common stock and Public Warrants under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act.
On November 8, 2023, our common stock and Public Warrants began trading on the OTC market under the symbols HLGN and HLGNW, respectively. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to, re-list our common stock or the Public Warrants on a national securities exchange or that there will be an active market for these securities on the OTC market. Moreover, without an active trading market, the market price of our securities may be extremely volatile and not reflective of the market price that would be seen on a more active trading market. For so long as our common stock is limited to trading on the OTC market, we and our stockholders could face significant negative consequences including:
limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
a reduction in the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock, which would negatively impact our ability to access equity markets and obtain financing;
a determination that the common stock is a “penny stock” which would require brokers trading in the common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for shares of common stock;
a limited amount of analyst coverage;
a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; and
an impairment of our ability to provide equity incentives to our employees.
