Nature of Business, Liquidity and Basis of Presentation Nature of Business
We design, manufacture, sell and, in certain cases, install solid-oxide fuel cell systems ("Energy Servers") for on-site power generation. Our Energy Servers utilize an innovative fuel cell technology and provide efficient energy generation with reduced operating costs and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to conventional fossil fuel generation. By generating power where it is consumed, our energy producing systems offer increased electrical reliability and improved energy security while providing a path to energy independence.
We continue to monitor and adjust as appropriate our operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. There have been a number of supply chain disruptions throughout the global supply chain as countries are in various stages of opening up and demand for certain components increases. Although we were able to find alternatives for many component shortages, we experienced some delays and cost increases with respect to container shortages, ocean shipping and air freight.
Liquidity
We have generally incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. With the series of new debt offerings, debt extensions and conversions to equity that we completed during 2020 and 2021, we had $291.8 million of total outstanding recourse debt as of December 31, 2021, $283.5 million of which is classified as long-term debt. Our recourse debt scheduled repayments will commence in June 2022.
On October 23, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with SK ecoplant Co., Ltd. (formerly known as SK Engineering and Construction Co., Ltd.) ("SK ecoplant") in connection with a strategic partnership. Pursuant to the SPA, on December 29, 2021, SK ecoplant purchased 10,000,000 shares of zero coupon, non-voting Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock ("RCPS") in Bloom Energy, par value $0.0001 per share, at a purchase price of $25.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $255.0 million, including an option to purchase Class A common stock. For more information about the SPA, please see Note 18 - SK ecoplant Strategic Investment , and for more information about our joint venture with SK ecoplant, please see Note 12 - Related Party Transactions .
In November 2021, PPA V entered into $136.0 million, 3.04% Senior Secured Notes due June 30, 2031, which replaces the LIBOR + 2.5% Term Loan due December 2021.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development efforts and other business initiatives, the rate of growth in the volume of system builds and the need for additional manufacturing space, the expansion of sales and marketing activities both in domestic and international markets, market acceptance of our product, our ability to secure financing for customer use of our Energy Servers, the timing of installations, and overall economic conditions including the impact of COVID-19 on our ongoing and future operations.
In the opinion of management, the combination of our existing cash and cash equivalents and operating cash flows is expected to be sufficient to meet our operational and capital cash flow requirements and other cash flow needs for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
