New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 40% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 40% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (23% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$53.6m market cap). Reported Earnings • Feb 06

Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has increased by 67% per year but the company’s share price has fallen by 10% per year, which means it is significantly lagging earnings. New Risk • Feb 05
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 22% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (22% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$56.0m market cap). Price Target Changed • Feb 05

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of American stocks, typically moving 16% a week.

Orion Energy Systems Receives Written Notice from Nasdaq Regarding Non-Compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirements Set Forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) On December 21, 2023, Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (the ‘Company’) received written notice (the ‘Notification Letter’) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (‘Nasdaq’) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the ‘Bid Price Rule’) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Bid Price Rule requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notification Letter, the Company no longer meets the Bid Price Rule. The Notification Letter does not impact the Company’s current listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market at this time, and shares of the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol ‘OESX’. The Notification Letter states that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until June 18, 2024, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance, the Company’s common stock must have a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. If the Company does not regain compliance by June 18, 2024, an additional 180 days may be granted to regain compliance, so long as the Company meets The Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing criteria (except for the Bid Price Rule) and notifies Nasdaq in writing of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including the implementation of a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Company’s common stock, at which point the Company would have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a hearings panel. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. The Company’s management remains committed to the Company’s strategy of increasing its revenues and adhering to a strict cost culture. As previously announced, the Company achieved 17% year-over-year and sequential growth in the fiscal 2024 second quarter. In addition, the Company expects to achieve fiscal 2024 revenue growth of 30% above fiscal 2023 revenue. This anticipated performance in the second half of fiscal 2024 is expected to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow during that period. The Company believes achievement of this performance will enable the Company to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. Reported Earnings • Nov 09
