Equity [Abstract]  
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common Stock
We have one class of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of our Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders. The Company effected the Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split did not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance, and, as of June 30, 2024, our authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance was 450.0 million with a par value $0.001 per share.
At-The-Market Sales Agreement
On March 10, 2022, we established an at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”). Under the ATM Program, we may offer and sell shares of our Common Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $175.0 million.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024 no shares were issued under the ATM Program and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, we issued 0.5 million shares under the ATM Program for net proceeds of $2.7 million. The remaining aggregate sales available under the ATM Program is $95.6 million as of June 30, 2024. Certain of our other existing financing arrangements place certain conditions and restrictions on the use of our ATM Program.
Equity Line of Credit
On December 12, 2023, the Company entered into an equity line of credit purchase agreement (the “ELOC Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (the “Purchaser”) which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, the Company may sell to the Purchaser up to $50.0 million of shares of Common Stock over the 24-month term of the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
In connection with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company paid a non-cash commitment fee to the Purchaser in the amount of 188,755 shares of Common Stock of the Company (valued at $1.5 million). The Company reflected the commitment fee as an expense in Interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations based on the fair value on the issuance date. Under applicable rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company cannot issue or sell more than 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement to the Purchaser under the ELOC Purchase Agreement without stockholder approval. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 600,000 shares of common stock at prices ranging between $4.42 and $6.86 pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement and received proceeds of $3.1 million. This activity occurred in the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The Company’s other financing arrangements substantially limit our ability to use the ELOC Purchase Agreement in the future.
The Company evaluated the contract that includes the right to require the Purchaser to purchase shares of common stock in the future (“purchased put right”) considering the guidance in ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts on an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) and concluded that it is an equity-linked contract that does not qualify for equity classification, and therefore requires fair value accounting as a derivative asset. The Company has analyzed the terms of the freestanding purchased put right and has concluded that it had insignificant value as of June 30, 2024.
Preferred Stock
Workhorse has authorized 75.0 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our certificate of incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our Board of Directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, qualification, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of preferred stock. As of June 30, 2024, there were no shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Warrants
In connection with the issuance of debt and Common Stock, we issued equity-classified warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock. As of June 30, 2024 there were approximately 5.5 million warrants outstanding under our 2024 Warrants.
