 OMNIMETRIX
– POWER GENERATION MONITORING AND CONTROL AND CATHODIC PROTECTION MONITORING AND CONTROL

is a Georgia limited liability company based in Buford, Georgia that develops and markets wireless remote monitoring and control systems
and services for critical assets (including stand-by power generators, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers, turbines, compressors, fire pumps
and other industrial equipment) and multiple markets in the IoT ecosystem, as well as cathodic protection solutions for the pipeline
industry (gas utilities and pipeline companies). Acorn owns 99% of OmniMetrix, with the remaining 1% owned by OmniMetrix's former
CEO.

 Following
the emergence of IoT applications whereby companies aggregate multiple sensors and monitors into a simplified dashboard for
customers, OmniMetrix believes it plays a key role in this economic ecosystem within the sectors in which it operates. OmniMetrix continues to see a rapidly
growing need for backup power infrastructure to secure critical military, government, and private sector assets against emergency
events including terrorist attacks, natural disasters, demand response and cybersecurity threats. Residential and industrial standby
generators, turbines, compressors, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers and other industrial equipment are part of the critical
infrastructure increasingly being monitored in IoT applications. OmniMetrix solutions monitor critical equipment used by cell
towers, manufacturing plants, medical facilities, data centers, retail stores, public transportation systems, energy distribution
and federal, state and municipal government facilities, in addition to residential back-up generators. Given that OmniMetrix
monitors all major brands of critical equipment and continues to invest in research and development in response to customer and
potential customer feedback, OmniMetrix is well-positioned to grow its customer base and expand its product offerings in this
market.

 Products
& Services

 In
the PG segment, OmniMetrix sells a line of devices and services built on our baseline TrueGuard wireless remote monitor. These devices
are broadly applicable across all brands and models of emergency power generators and industrial engine applications. The TrueGuard product
family connects directly to the engine's control panel and captures all data flowing through the control panel. As a result, the
product provides the ability to identify whether an emergency generator is capable of operating as expected. OmniMetrix also sells our
AIRGuard product which remotely monitors and controls industrial air compressors and our Smart Annunciator product which is typically
sold to commercial customers that require a visual representation of the generator's status and has a large touch-screen display.

 In
the CP segment, OmniMetrix offers three primary product lines: the Hero 2 Rectifier Monitor, the Patriot Plus Test Station Monitor, and
the RAD TM (Remote AC Mitigation Disconnect). All of these products are used to monitor cathodic protection systems, a process
which reduces rust and corrosion on pipelines used to transport natural gas. As the name suggests, the Hero 2 Rectifier Monitor product
monitors and controls the operation of the rectifiers, which are a critical component in the effort to prevent corrosion and are also
the most common point of failure in the pipeline system. The Patriot Plus Test Station Monitor is also used to provide data points along
the pipeline segment powered by the rectifier including AC current density. Additionally, the industry's first and patented RAD mounts onto existing
Solid-state Decouplers in the field and can remotely disconnect/connect these AC mitigation tools which drastically reduces company expense
while increasing employee safety.

 Customers
and Markets

 At
its core, the OmniMetrix family of PG monitors (TrueGuard PRO and TrueGuard 2) can remotely monitor and control a variety of industrial
engine applications, including engines, standby generators, air and gas compressors, fire pumps, batteries, turbines, pumps and other
equipment. Early in the company's history, a strategic decision was made to focus primarily on the standby power generation market.
In the past several years, the company has expanded its focus to add several additional applications where it sees demand. Standby generator
monitoring is part of the IoT ecosystem, whereby multiple sensing and monitoring devices are aggregated into one simple dashboard for
customers.

 As
OmniMetrix can monitor and control all major brands of standby generators, it is well-positioned to compete in this market.

 In
the early stages of OmniMetrix's PG product and market development, relatively unsophisticated generator controls and early generation
cellular and satellite communication processes limited the applications to alarm delivery. Customers were notified that some event had
taken place after the fact. There was no diagnostic data opportunity, but service organizations could, at best, practice a reactive service
approach.

 With
the advent of second-generation cellular systems and newer, computerized engine controls, OmniMetrix migrated to a design point of
collecting large amounts of performance data from remote machinery, which allows service organizations to perform diagnostics on
equipment before dispatching service. These enhanced control panels allowed the service organization to put the right person in the
right truck with the right parts to affect a one-trip or even a zero-trip solution. At this phase, service organizations could be
efficient, proactive, and provide a higher level of customer satisfaction. They could also manage more customers by using remote
monitoring. Customers have provided OmniMetrix feedback regarding how customer service teams are able to work "smarter"
and more efficiently by going directly to problem sites with the appropriate people, parts and solutions, thus increasing the value
of their businesses.

is now focused on expanding its product offerings while also executing its third phase of evolution, maturing the high-performance data
collection design point into the first provider offering of automated prognostic solutions. For example, as most generator failures are
the result of consumables, and as those consumables can be monitored, the consumption trends can be extrapolated into predictions of
the most common failure modes.

 OmniMetrix's PG monitors have been installed on commercial, industrial
and residential generators from original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") such as Caterpillar, Kohler, Generac, Cummins, Briggs
& Stratton, MTU Solutions and other generator manufacturers. OmniMetrix provides dual value propositions to the generator service
organizations as well as to the machine owner. The dealers benefit from the receipt of performance data and status conditions from the
generators they service for their customers, which allows the dealer service organization to be proactive in their delivery of service
to their customers, as well as analyzing the remote machines before dispatching a service truck. Since the majority of service and warranty
costs are incurred by the service providers, preemptive analysis of customer site conditions prior to dispatch can reduce their labor
cost. From the machine owner's perspective, the OmniMetrix product provides a powerful tool to be used in their efforts to avoid
failures that come from consumables such as batteries and fuel. With proper monitoring, 95% of machine failures can be avoided completely.
This migration from failure reporting to failure prevention is fundamentally OmniMetrix's focus and is the result of a strong data
collection and analysis design point. We believe that this transition to prognostics sets OmniMetrix apart from its competitors, many
of whom are still in the failure reporting phase of application development. OmniMetrix has also shifted its primary focus to the commercial
and industrial segments from residential due, in part, to the ability to customize our products to the customers' specifications.
We have also increased our marketing efforts to end-users in an effort to increase demand for our services. These efforts have proven
to be successful, and OmniMetrix continues to execute on that strategy.

 Competition

is a vertical market company, deeply focused on providing excellent customer experience and product and service designs for a complete
end-to-end program for its customers. Having been the first provider of wireless remote monitoring systems for standby generators, the
company has had the opportunity to mature its offering to a level not offered by others who compete in our two segments. This long experience
working with key brand and project partners over the years has resulted in product offerings that are highly competitive.

 There
are two types of competitors in the PG marketplace:

 (1)

 Independent monitoring organizations produce the monitoring systems, but
not the equipment being monitored. Aside from OmniMetrix, such companies include Ayantra, FleetZOOM, Gen-Tracker, and PowerTelematics
in the high-performance power generation monitoring segment. Other competitors operate in the reactive "failure notification"
mode described in the early stages of the OmniMetrix business model. These competitors position themselves in a lower-performance, lower-price
quadrant of the market typically due to the lesser amount of data their products can collect from the generator's control panel
compared to OmniMetrix.

 (2)

 OEMs
 such as generator manufacturers or generator controls manufacturers that offer customer connectivity to their machinery. They offer
 a current generation connectivity replacing telephone dial-up modems that had been used in the past. Their offerings are limited
 to their own brands, so they do not fit into broad applications like the OmniMetrix products that service all brands. They are also
 generally designed for the machine owners' use, in a reactive application, similar to lower-performance, lower-priced market competitors.

 We believe OmniMetrix has a well-established and well-defended position
in the high-performance PG monitoring segment, due to its long history and numerous industry partner projects. While the execution of
our aggressive sales strategy was interrupted by the impact of COVID-19, the Company has resumed an aggressive sales effort, including
pursuit of the market segment requiring less technology and lower price (the extremely large residential generator market) as well as developing
more sophisticated, diagnostic products and custom solutions for commercial and industrial clientele.

 Within the CP marketplace, there are no OEM competitors, but there are
several companies that provide monitoring capabilities similar to OmniMetrix such as Mobiltex Solutions, Abriox, Elecsys, and American
Innovations. We believe that OmniMetrix systems provide greater functionality than these competitors, though those competitors are much
larger and have greater resources, potentially enabling better channel penetration in the future than OmniMetrix has accomplished in the
past.

 Intellectual
Property

has always focused on being the technology leader in its markets, and as a result has created many "industry firsts" and
"trade secrets". Initially, the Company only pursued patents on the most valuable processes and systems and otherwise made
public disclosure of many processes to prevent others from making later patent claims on those items. Nonetheless, OmniMetrix has four
issued valid patents. Furthermore, the Company has agreements with its employees and consultants which establish certain non-disclosure
and, in some cases, non-compete, requirements. OmniMetrix continually evaluates whether and how to best protect its intellectual property,
but there can be no assurance that its efforts will be successful in all cases.

 Facilities

activities are currently conducted in 21,000 square feet of office and production space in the Hamilton Mill Business Park located in
Buford, Georgia, under a lease that expires September 30, 2025. On July 6, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with King Industrial
Realty, Inc., to sublease from the Company 1,900 square feet of unused office space. The sublease commenced on October 1, 2021 and will
run through September 30, 2025, which is the end of the Company's lease term with its landlord.

 BACKLOG

 As
of December 31, 2023, OmniMetrix had a backlog of $5.6 million, primarily comprised of deferred revenue, of which $4.0 million is expected
to be recognized as revenue in 2024. This compares to a backlog of $6.2 million at December 31, 2022.

 ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS

 We
may from time to time make written or oral statements that contain forward-looking information. However, our actual results may differ
materially from our expectations, statements or projections. The following risks and uncertainties, together with other factors not presently
determinable, could cause actual results to differ from our expectations, statements or projections.

 GENERAL
FACTORS

 We
have a history of operating losses and have used significant amounts of cash for operations and to fund our investments.

 Although
we have had several consecutive quarters of profitability at our OmniMetrix subsidiary, we have had a history of losses from our OmniMetrix
subsidiary plus corporate overhead and have used significant amounts of cash to fund our operating activities over the years.

 While
we believe we have sufficient cash to finance our operations for at least twelve months from the issuance of the audited
consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report, we may need to seek additional sources of funding for long-term
corporate costs or if OmniMetrix were not to grow at the rate anticipated and needed additional funds for their operations.
Additional sources of funding may include additional loans from related and/or non-related parties, partial sale of, or finding a
strategic partner for, OmniMetrix or equity financing. There can be no assurance additional funding will be available at acceptable
terms or that we will be able to successfully utilize any of these possible sources to provide additional liquidity.

 We
depend on key management for the success of our business.

 Our
success is largely dependent on the skills, experience and efforts of our senior management team, including Jan Loeb, CEO of Acorn and
Acting CEO of OmniMetrix, who beneficially owns approximately 21.02% of the Company's stock, and Tracy Clifford, CFO of Acorn
and COO of OmniMetrix. The loss of the services of either of these key managers could materially harm our business, financial condition,
future results and cash flow. We do not maintain "key person" life insurance policies on any members of senior management.
We may also not be able to locate or employ on acceptable terms qualified replacements for our senior management if their services were
no longer available.

 Loss
of the services of a few key employees could harm our operations.

 We
depend on key technical employees and sales personnel. The loss of certain personnel could diminish our ability to develop and maintain
relationships with customers and potential customers. The loss of certain technical personnel could harm our ability to meet development
and implementation schedules. The loss of key sales personnel could have a negative effect on sales to certain current customers. Although
most of our significant employees are bound by confidentiality and non-competition agreements, the enforceability of such agreements
cannot be assured. Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, train and retain other highly qualified
technical and managerial personnel. If we fail to attract or retain highly qualified technical and managerial personnel in the future,
our business could be disrupted.

 There
is a limited trading market for our common stock and the price of our common stock may be volatile.

 Our
common stock is traded on the OTCQB marketplace under the symbol "ACFN." The OTCQB is a regulated quotation service that
displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities and provides significantly less
liquidity than a listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchanges. The OTCQB securities are traded by a community
of market makers that enter quotes and trade reports. This market is limited in comparison to the national stock exchanges, and any prices
quoted may not be a reliable indication of the value of our common stock. Quotes for stocks included on the OTCQB are not listed in the
financial sections of newspapers as are those for the NASDAQ Stock Market or the NYSE. Therefore, prices for securities traded solely
on the OTCQB may be difficult to obtain.

 Trading
on the OTCQB marketplace as opposed to a national securities exchange has resulted, and may continue to result, in a reduction in some
or all of the following, each of which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock and our company:

 the
 liquidity of our common stock;

 the
 market price of shares of our common stock;

 our
 ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;

 the
 number of institutional and other investors that will consider investing in shares of our common stock;

 the
 number of market markers in shares of our common stock;

 the
 availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of shares of our common stock; and

 the
 number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our common stock.

 In
addition, the market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to:

 quarterly
 variations in our revenues and operating expenses;

 announcements
 of new products or services by us;

 fluctuations
 in interest rates;

 significant
 sales of our common stock;

 the
 operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable to us; and

 news
 reports relating to trends in our markets or general economic conditions.

 Compliance
with changing regulations of corporate governance, public disclosure and financial accounting standards may result in additional expenses
and affect our reported results of operations.

 Keeping
informed of, and in compliance with, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance, public disclosure and
accounting standards, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Dodd-Frank Act, as well as new and proposed SEC regulations and accounting standards,
has required an increased amount of management attention and external resources. Compliance with such requirements may result in increased
general and administrative expenses and an increased allocation of management time and attention to compliance activities.

 We
may not be able to successfully integrate companies which we may invest in or acquire in the future, which could materially and adversely
affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow.

 Part
of our business plan includes the acquisition of new companies either as new platform companies or complimentary companies. Any failure
to effectively integrate any future acquisition's management into our controls, systems and procedures could materially adversely
affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.

 Any
significant acquisition could require substantial use of our capital and may require significant debt or equity financing. We anticipate
the need to closely manage our cash for the foreseeable future and cannot provide any assurance as to the availability or terms of any
such financing or its effect on our liquidity and capital resources.

 Integrating
acquisitions is often costly, and we may not be able to successfully integrate acquired companies with existing operations without substantial
costs, delays or other adverse operational or financial consequences. Integrating acquired companies involves a number of risks that
could materially and adversely affect our business, including:

 failure
 of the acquired companies to achieve the results we expect;

 inability
 to retain key personnel of the acquired companies;

 dilution
 of existing stockholders;

 potential
 disruption of our ongoing business activities and distraction of our management;

 difficulties
 in retaining business relationships with suppliers and customers of the acquired companies;

 difficulties
 in coordinating and integrating overall business strategies, sales and marketing, and research and development efforts; and

 difficulties
 in establishing and maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies, including accounting controls and procedures.

 We
incur substantial costs as a result of being a public company.

 As
a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses in connection with our reporting requirements. The Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002, Dodd-Frank Act and the rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") have
required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. These rules and regulations have already increased our legal
and financial compliance costs and the amount of time and effort we devote to compliance activities. We expect that as a result of continued
compliance with these rules and regulations, we will continue to incur significant legal and financial compliance costs. We continue
to regularly monitor and evaluate developments with respect to these new rules with our legal counsel, but we cannot predict or estimate
the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

 We
may in the future become involved in litigation that may materially adversely affect us.

 From
time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings, including commercial, product
liability, employment, class action and other litigation and claims, as well as governmental and other regulatory investigations and
proceedings. Any legal proceedings can be time-consuming, divert management's attention and resources and cause us to incur significant
expenses. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, the results of any such actions may have a material adverse effect on our business,
operations or financial condition.

 We
have reported material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 and we cannot assure you
that additional material weaknesses will not be identified in the future or that we can effectively remediate our reported
weaknesses. If our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, there may be
errors in our consolidated financial statements that could require a restatement of our consolidated financial statements, or our
filings may not be timely, and investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information.

 Section
404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
the end of each year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting
in each Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 Our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our internal control over financial
reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect
the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Controls can be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Over
time, controls may become inadequate because changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures
may occur. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and
not be detected.

 Any
failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could
result in significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, cause us to fail to timely meet our periodic reporting obligations, or
result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic
management evaluations regarding disclosure controls and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required
under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of a material weakness could
result in errors in our consolidated financial statements that could result in a restatement of our consolidated financial
statements, cause us to fail to timely meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported
financial information.

 If
we are unable to protect our intellectual property, or our intellectual property protection efforts are unsuccessful, others may duplicate
our technology.

 We
rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual
property rights. Our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary technology, systems'
designs and manufacturing processes. The ability of others to use our intellectual property could allow them to duplicate the benefits
of our products and reduce our competitive advantage. In the future, should we apply for new patents, we do not know whether any of our
pending patent applications will be issued or, in the case of patents issued, that the claims allowed are or will be sufficiently broad
to protect our technology or processes. Further, a patent issued covering one use of our technology may not be broad enough to cover
uses of that technology in other business areas. Even if all our patent applications are issued and are sufficiently broad, they may
be challenged or invalidated, or our competitors may independently develop or patent technologies or processes that are equivalent or
superior to ours. We could incur substantial costs in prosecuting patent and other intellectual property infringement suits and defending
the validity of our patents and other intellectual property. While we have attempted to safeguard and maintain our property rights, we
do not know whether we have been or will be completely successful in doing so. These actions could place our patents, trademarks and
other intellectual property rights at risk and could result in the loss of patent, trademark or other intellectual property rights protection
for the products, systems and services on which our business strategy partly depends. Furthermore, it is not practical from a cost/benefit
perspective to file for patent or trademark protection in every jurisdiction where we now or in the future may conduct business. In those
territories where we do not have the benefit of patent or trademark protections, our competitors may be able to prevent us from selling
our products or otherwise limit our ability to advertise under our established product names and we may face risks associated with infringement
litigation as discussed below.

 We
rely, to a significant degree, on contractual provisions to protect our trade secrets and proprietary knowledge. These trade secrets
either cannot be protected by patent protection or we have determined that seeking a patent is not in our interest. These agreements
may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. Our trade secrets may also be known without breach of such agreements
or may be independently developed by competitors.

 It
can be difficult or expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations.

 As
part of our business operations, we maintain insurance as a corporate risk management strategy. Insurance products are impacted by market
fluctuations and can become expensive and sometimes very difficult to obtain. There can be no assurance that we can secure all necessary
or appropriate insurance at affordable prices for the required limits. Our failure to obtain such insurance could lead to uninsured losses
that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition or cause us to be out of compliance with
our contractual obligations.

 We
may in the future be involved in product liability and product warranty claims relating to the products we manufacture and distribute
that, if adversely determined, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Product liability
claims can be expensive to defend and can divert the attention of management and other personnel for significant periods, regardless
of the ultimate outcome. Claims of this nature could also have a negative impact on customer confidence in our products and our company.
While insurance can mitigate some of this risk, due to our current size and operating history, we have been unable to obtain product
liability insurance with significant coverage. Our customers may no longer accept the terms we have been able to procure and seek to
terminate our existing contracts or cease to do business with us.

 Our
financial instruments could subject us to concentrations of credit risk.

 Our
financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and trade accounts
receivable. Our cash was deposited with a U.S. bank and amounted to $1,449,000 at December 31, 2023. We had one customer that represented
25% of the accounts receivable at December 31, 2023. Credit risk with respect to the balance of trade receivables is generally diversified
due to the number of entities comprising our customer base. Although we do not believe there is significant risk of non-performance by
these counterparties, any failures or defaults on their part could negatively impact the value of our financial instruments and could
have a material adverse effect on our business, operations or financial condition.

 We
are dependent on information technology and our systems and infrastructure face certain risks, including from cybersecurity breaches
and data leakage.

 We
rely extensively on information technology systems, networks and services, including internet sites, data hosting and processing facilities
and tools, physical security systems and other hardware, software and technical applications and platforms, some of which are managed,
hosted, provided and/or used for third-parties or their vendors, to assist in conducting our business. A significant breakdown, invasion,
corruption, destruction or interruption of critical information technology systems or infrastructure, by our workforce, others with authorized
access to our systems or unauthorized persons could negatively impact operations. The ever-increasing use and evolution of technology,
including cloud-based computing, creates opportunities for the unintentional dissemination or intentional destruction or modification
of confidential information stored in our, or our third-party providers' systems, portable media or storage devices. We could
also experience a business interruption, theft of confidential information or reputational damage from industrial espionage attacks,
malware or other cyber-attacks, which may compromise our system infrastructure or lead to data leakage, either internally or at our third-party
providers. There has been an increase in cybersecurity incidents across all industries, predominantly ransomware and social engineering
attacks. Further, government entities have also been the subject of cyberattacks. As the cyber-threat landscape evolves, these attacks
are growing in frequency, sophistication and intensity, and due to the nature of some of these attacks, there is also a risk that they
may remain undetected for a period of time. We have invested in industry-appropriate protections and monitoring practices of our data
and IT and have established a Cybersecurity Steering Committee to reduce these risks and continue to monitor our systems on an ongoing
basis for any current or potential threats. While we have purchased cybersecurity insurance, there are no assurances that the coverage
would be adequate in relation to any incurred losses. Moreover, as cyber-attacks increase in frequency and magnitude, we may be unable
to obtain cybersecurity insurance in amounts and on terms we view as appropriate for our operations. There can be no assurance that our
continuing efforts will prevent breakdowns or breaches of our and/or our third-party providers' databases or systems that could
adversely affect our business.

 RISKS
RELATED TO OMNIMETRIX

has had a history of incurring net losses since it was acquired by us and may never achieve sustained profitability.

 Although
OmniMetrix realized an operating profit of $1,131,000 in 2023 and $330,000 in 2022, OmniMetrix has a history of incurring operating losses
since it was acquired by Acorn in 2012. While OmniMetrix has significantly reduced its losses and its cash needs from us and we expect
positive cash flow from its operations in 2024, we can provide no assurance that OmniMetrix will be able to generate sufficient revenues
to allow it to sustain profitability and to have sustained positive cash flows.

 An
increase in customer terminations would negatively affect our business by reducing OmniMetrix's revenue or requiring us to spend
more money to grow our customer base.

 Non-renewals
or other monitoring service terminations could increase in the future due to customer dissatisfaction with our products and services,
increased competition from other providers or alternative technologies.

 If
we have an increase in our non-renewal rate, we will have to acquire new customers on an ongoing basis just to maintain our existing
level of customers and revenues. As a result, marketing expenditures are an ongoing requirement of our business. We incur significant
costs to acquire new customers, and those costs are an important factor in determining our net profitability. Therefore, if we are unsuccessful
in retaining customers or are required to spend significant amounts to acquire new customers, our revenue could decrease and/or our operating
results could be affected.

is a relatively small company with limited resources compared to some of its current and potential competitors, which may hinder its
ability to compete effectively.

 Some
of OmniMetrix's current and potential competitors have significantly greater resources and broader name recognition than it does.
As a result, these competitors may have greater credibility with OmniMetrix's existing and potential customers. They also may be
able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products,
which would allow them to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies or changes in customer requirements. In particular, at
the present time we are facing significant competition from certain generator manufacturers who offer their own monitoring solutions.

may not be able to access sufficient capital to support growth.

 Although
OmniMetrix is not expected to need funding from us in 2024 to support its growth and working capital needs, OmniMetrix has historically
been dependent on Acorn's ability and willingness to provide funding to support its business and growth strategy. As of December
31, 2023, OmniMetrix owes Acorn $2,657,000 from such funding support which includes accrued dividends of $342,000, a loan with an outstanding
principal amount of $2,304,000 and accrued interest and other advances of $11,000. During 2023, the intercompany amount due to Acorn
from OmniMetrix decreased by $1,020,000. This included repayments of $1,285,000 offset by interest of $164,000, dividends of $76,000
due to Acorn and $25,000 in shared expenses paid by Acorn. During 2022, the intercompany amount due to Acorn from OmniMetrix decreased
by $540,000. This included repayments of $985,000 offset by interest of $179,000, dividends of $76,000 due to Acorn and $190,000 in shared
expenses paid by Acorn. This intercompany balance is eliminated in consolidation.

 While
we believe we have sufficient cash to finance our operations for at least twelve months from the issuance of the audited
consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report, we may need to seek additional sources of funding for long-term
corporate costs or if OmniMetrix were not to grow at the rate anticipated and needed additional funds for their operations.
Additional financing for OmniMetrix may be in the form of a bank line, a new loan or investment by others, an equity raise by Acorn
which could then facilitate a loan by Acorn to OmniMetrix, or any combination thereof. The availability and amount of any additional loans
from us to OmniMetrix may be limited by the working capital needs of our corporate activities. Whether Acorn will have the resources
necessary to provide funding, or whether alternative funds, such as third-party loans or investments, will be available at the time
and on terms acceptable to Acorn and OmniMetrix cannot be determined at this time.

sells equipment and services which monitor third-party products, thus its revenues are dependent on the continued sales of such third-party
products.

end-user customer base is comprised exclusively of parties who have chosen to purchase either generators or construct gas pipelines.
OmniMetrix has no ability to control the rate at which new generators or cathodic protection systems are acquired. If purchases of such
products decline, the associated need for OmniMetrix's products and services would be expected to decline as well.

 If
OmniMetrix is unable to keep pace with changing market or customer-mandated product and service improvements, OmniMetrix's results
of operations and financial condition may suffer.

 Many
of OmniMetrix's existing products may require ongoing engineering and upgrades in conjunction with market developments as well
as specific customer needs. There can be no assurance that OmniMetrix will continue to be successful in its engineering efforts regarding
the development of its products, and future technological difficulties could adversely affect its business, results of operations and
financial condition.

 The
cellular networks used by OmniMetrix are also subject to periodic technical updates that may require corresponding updates to, or replacement
of, OmniMetrix's monitoring equipment.

 Cellular
networks have evolved over time to offer more robust technical capabilities in both voice and data transmission. For example, the changes
from the so-called "3G" to "4G LTE" service have resulted in only limited service interruptions. OmniMetrix anticipates,
however, that as new capabilities come online, it will be necessary to have equipment that can readily interface with the newer cellular
networks to avoid negative impacts on customer service. Not all of the costs associated with OmniMetrix's corresponding equipment
upgrades can be passed on to customers, and any increased expenses are expected to have a negative impact on OmniMetrix's operating
results.

 A
substantial portion of OmniMetrix's revenues is expected to be generated not from product sales, but from periodic monitoring fees
and thus it is continually exposed to risks associated with its customers' financial stability.

sells on-going monitoring services to both PG and CP customers. It is therefore dependent on these customers continuing to timely pay
service fees on an on-going basis. If a significant portion of these fees are not paid on a timely basis and/or are not renewed from
year-to-year, OmniMetrix could expect to experience deterioration in its financial condition.

ability to provide, and to collect revenues from, monitoring services is dependent on the reliability of cellular networks not controlled
by OmniMetrix.

provides monitoring services through the use of cellular and satellite technology utilizing the networks of third-party providers. These
providers generally do not warrantee their services to either OmniMetrix or the end users, and any dropped transmissions could result
in the loss of customer renewals and potential claims against OmniMetrix. While OmniMetrix uses contractual measures to limit its liability
to customers, there is no assurance that such limitations will be enforced or that customers will not cancel monitoring services due
to network issues.

business is dependent on its ability to reliably store and manage data, but there can be no guarantee that it has sufficient capabilities
to mitigate potential data loss in all cases.

 The
efficient operation of OmniMetrix's business is dependent on its information technology systems. In addition, OmniMetrix's
ability to assist customers in analyzing data related to the performance of such customers' power and cathodic protection monitoring
systems is an important component of its customer value proposition. OmniMetrix utilizes Microsoft Azure cloud-hosted data servers utilizing
accepted data and power monitoring and protection processes, but whether a data loss can be avoided cannot be assured in every case.
OmniMetrix's information technology systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, sabotage (including
theft and attacks by computer viruses or hackers), power outages, and computer systems, Internet, telecommunications or data network
failure. Any interruption of OmniMetrix's information technology systems could result in decreased revenue, increased expenses,
increased capital expenditures, customer dissatisfaction and potential lawsuits, any of which could have a material adverse effect on
its results of operations and financial condition.

 RISKS
RELATED TO OUR SECURITIES

 Our
stock price is highly volatile and we do not expect to pay dividends on shares of our common stock for the foreseeable future. Investors
may never obtain a return on their investment.

 The
market price of our common stock has fluctuated substantially in the past and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and subject
to wide fluctuations. During 2023, on an as-adjusted basis to take into account the September 2023 1-for-16 reverse stock split, our
common stock traded at prices as low as $4.00 and as high as $8.50 per share. Fluctuations in our stock price may continue to occur in
response to various factors, many of which we cannot control, including:

 general
 economic and political conditions and specific conditions in the markets we address;

 quarter-to-quarter
 variations in our operating results;

 strategic
 investments or divestments;

 announcements
 of changes in our senior management;

 the
 gain or loss of one or more significant customers or suppliers;

 announcements
 of technological innovations or new products by our competitors, customers or us;

 the
 gain or loss of market share in any of our markets;

 changes
 in accounting rules;

 changes
 in investor perceptions; or

 changes
 in expectations relating to our products, plans and strategic position or those of our competitors or customers.

 We
do not intend to pay dividends to our stockholders in the foreseeable future. We intend to reinvest earnings, if any, in the development
and expansion of our business. Accordingly, investors will need to rely on sales of your common stock after price appreciation, which
may never occur, in order to realize a return on their investment.

 Our
share price may decline due to the large number of shares of our common stock eligible for future sale in the public market including
shares underlying options.

 Almost
all of our outstanding shares of common stock are, or could upon exercise of options become, eligible for sale in the public market as
described below. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the possibility of these sales,
may adversely affect our stock price.

 As
of March 5, 2024, 2,487,307 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding. As of that date we had 79,168 options outstanding
and exercisable with a weighted average exercise price of $6.41 per share, which if exercised would result in the issuance of additional
shares of our common stock. In addition to the options noted above, at March 5, 2024, there were 13,703 options outstanding that have
not yet vested and are not yet exercisable.

 Substantially
all of our currently outstanding shares and shares issuable under our outstanding options are or would be freely tradable.

 We
may have to offer additional securities for sale in the near future.

 As
of March 5, 2024, we had consolidated cash of $1,236,000 which we believe is sufficient for at least the next twelve months. Despite
this, we may ultimately not have sufficient cash to allow us to execute our plans, and the occurrence of one or more unanticipated events
may require us to make significant expenditures. Accordingly, we may need to raise additional amounts to finance our operations. If we
were to do so by selling shares of our common stock and/or other securities convertible into shares of our common stock, current investors
may incur dilution in the value of their shares.

 ITEM
1C. CYBERSECURITY

 Risk
Management and Strategy

 Securing
our business information, intellectual property, customer and employee data and technology systems is essential for the continuity of
our business, meeting applicable regulatory requirements and maintaining the trust of our stockholders. Cybersecurity is an important
and integrated part of our enterprise risk management function that identifies, monitors and mitigates business, operational and legal
risks.

 To
help protect us from a major cybersecurity incident that could have a material impact on operations or our financial results, we have
implemented policies, programs and controls, including technology investments that focus on cybersecurity incident prevention, identification
and mitigation. The steps we take to reduce our vulnerability to cyberattacks and to mitigate impacts from cybersecurity incidents include,
but are not limited to: annual penetration testing by a third party vendor, cloud and agent based security scanning that runs continuously,
establishing information security policies and standards, implementing information protection processes and technologies, monitoring
our information technology systems for cybersecurity threats, assessing cybersecurity risk profiles of key third-parties, and implementing
cybersecurity training. In addition, we annually purchase a cybersecurity risk insurance policy that would help defray the costs associated
with a covered cybersecurity incident if it occurred.

 Governance

 Our
Board of Directors is actively engaged in overseeing and reviewing our strategic direction and objectives, taking into account, among
other considerations, our risk profile and related exposures, including oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats. As part of this
oversight, the Company established a Cybersecurity Steering Committee consisting of certain members of our senior management team and
a Board representative, that meets quarterly and updates the Board periodically, and at least annually, on our cybersecurity program,
including with respect to particular cybersecurity threats, cybersecurity incidents, new developments in our risk profile, the status
of projects to strengthen our cybersecurity systems, assessments of our cybersecurity program, and the emerging threat landscape.

 Management
has the responsibility to manage risk and bring to the Board's attention any material near-term and long-term risks to the Company,
including risks from cybersecurity threats. We actively engage with key vendors and industry participants and monitor new developments
in global cybersecurity concerns as part of our continuing efforts to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of our cybersecurity policies
and procedures. Our Cybersecurity Steering Committee has developed a standard operating procedure that outlines specific steps to identify,
mitigate and report on any cybersecurity-related incidents that may be discovered.

 Although
we did not experience a material cybersecurity incident during the year ended December 31, 2023, the scope and impact of any future incident
cannot be predicted. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors" for more information on our cybersecurity-related risks.

 ITEM
2. PROPERTIES

activities are currently conducted in approximately 21,000 square feet of office and production space in the Hamilton Mill Business Park
located in Buford, Georgia, under a lease that expires on September 30, 2025. The annual total rent payment was $128,000 in 2023 and
$124,000 in 2022. For 2024, the annual total rent payment will be $129,000. OmniMetrix is currently utilizing only a portion of these
leased facilities and expects to grow into a portion of the currently unused space.

 On
July 6, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with King Industrial Realty, Inc. to sublease from the Company 1,900 square feet
of the unused office space for a monthly sublease payment of $2,375 plus annual escalators (the average monthly sublease payment in
2023 was $2,465), which includes the base rent plus a pro-rata share of utilities, property taxes and insurance. Fifty percent of any
excess rent received above the per square foot amount that the Company pays will be remitted to the Company's landlord less
the allocation of any shared expenses and leasehold improvements specific to the sublease. As of December 31, 2023, after the offset
of the investment in leasehold improvements and other expenses related to the sublease, the Company owes its landlord $6,500 for its
share of the sublease profit since the lease commencement. The estimated amount the Company expects to remit to the landlord each
year of the sublease subsequent to December 31, 2023 is $6,500 per year. The sublease commenced on October 1, 2021 and will run
through September 30, 2025 which is the end of the Company's lease term with its landlord. Below are the future payments

 ITEM
7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 OVERVIEW
AND TREND INFORMATION

 The
following discussion includes statements that are forward-looking in nature. Whether such statements ultimately prove to be accurate
depends upon a variety of factors that may affect our business and operations. Certain of these factors are discussed in "Item
1A. Risk Factors."

 All
dollar amounts in the discussion below are rounded to the nearest thousand and, thus, are approximate.

 We
currently operate in two reportable operating segments, both of which are performed through our OmniMetrix subsidiary:

 The
 PG segment provides wireless remote monitoring and control systems and IoT applications for residential and commercial/industrial
 power generation equipment. This includes our AIRGuard product, which remotely monitors and controls industrial air compressors,
 and our Smart Annunciator product which is typically sold to commercial customers that require a visual representation of the generator's
 status and has a touch-screen display that indicates the current state of that generator; and

 The
 CP segment provides remote monitoring and control products for cathodic protection systems on gas pipelines serving the gas utilities
 market and pipeline operators. The CP product lineup includes solutions to remotely monitor and control rectifiers, test stations
 and bonds. OmniMetrix also offers the industry's first RAD TM (Remote AC Mitigation Disconnect) that mounts onto
 existing Solid-state Decouplers in the field and can remotely disconnect/connect these AC mitigation tools which can drastically
 reduce a company's expense while increasing employee safety.

 The
following analysis should be read together with the segment information provided in Notes 12 and 13 to our consolidated financial statements
included in this report.

 Following
the emergence of machine-to-machine ("M2M") and IoT applications whereby companies aggregate multiple sensors and monitors
into a simplified dashboard for customers, OmniMetrix believes it plays a key role in this economic ecosystem. In addition, OmniMetrix
continues to see a growing need for backup power infrastructure to secure critical military, government, and private sector assets against
emergency events including terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and cybersecurity threats. Residential, commercial and industrial standby
generators, turbines, compressors, pumps, pumpjacks, light towers and other industrial equipment are part of the critical infrastructure
increasingly becoming monitored in IoT applications. OmniMetrix solutions monitor critical equipment used by cell towers, manufacturing
plants, medical facilities, data centers, retail stores, public transportation systems, energy distribution and federal, state and municipal
government facilities, in addition to residential back-up generators. Given that OmniMetrix monitors all major brands of critical equipment
and continues to invest in research and development in response to customer and potential customer feedback, OmniMetrix remains well-positioned
as a competitive participant in this market to continue to grow its customer base and expand its product offerings.

 Intercompany

2023, the intercompany amount due to Acorn from OmniMetrix decreased by $1,020,000. This included repayments of $1,285,000 offset by
interest of $164,000, dividends of $76,000 due to Acorn and $25,000 in shared expenses paid by Acorn. During 2022, the intercompany
amount due to Acorn from OmniMetrix decreased by $540,000. This included repayments of $985,000 offset by interest of $179,000,
dividends of $76,000 due to Acorn and $190,000 in shared expenses paid by Acorn. This intercompany balance is eliminated in
consolidation. We believe that OmniMetrix will not need working capital support in 2024. However, we have no assurance that this
will be the case. Additional financing for OmniMetrix may be in the form of a bank line, a new loan or investment by others, an
equity raise by Acorn which could then facilitate a loan by Acorn to OmniMetrix, or any combination thereof. The availability and
amount of any additional loans from Acorn to OmniMetrix may be limited by the working capital needs of our corporate activities.
Whether Acorn will have the resources necessary to provide funding, or whether alternative funds, such as third-party loans or
investments, will be available at the time and on terms acceptable to Acorn and OmniMetrix cannot be determined at this
time.

 As
of March 5, 2024, Acorn's corporate operations (excluding cash at our OmniMetrix subsidiary) held a total of $1,236,000 in cash.

 Other
Matters

 On
January 12, 2024, we entered into a new contract with our current primary data provider for Internet of Things (IoT) wireless services
for a 36-month contract term with automatic one-year extensions, subject to termination notice. The pricing structure involves account
setup, SIM charges, monthly revenue obligations, and various rate plans based on data usage and regions along with other optional services.
The monthly revenue obligation is $10,000 for the first 6 months and $15,000 thereafter. We will also be eligible for volume discounts
based on total monthly service revenue. Additionally, the agreement includes an IoT Enhanced Support and Priority Care Services Rate
Plan with various support service types and pricing tiers based on the number of devices and terms for SIM migrations, including tiered
pricing and conditions for waiver of certain charges during migration. This new agreement will allow us to migrate our customers to higher
tier data plans for nominal additional cost.

 On
December 22, 2023, we entered into an agreement with a new Azure cloud hosting provider to move to their Cloud Reliability Platform and
utilize their premium cloud operations services. The initial term of this agreement is twenty-four months with automatic renewal of successive
one-year terms unless ninety days written notice is given prior to the expiration of the initial term. Through this relationship, we
will have unparalleled cloud management that provides a central location to access cloud operations metrics, configure services, set
up proactive monitoring, create backup policies and request access to certified cloud experts to ensure that our operating infrastructure
is healthy, resilient and operating efficiently. We will also have 24 x 7 x 365 monitoring and resolution support to timely resolve any
issues that may arise and reduce or potentially eliminate unplanned downtime for our customers on our data monitoring platform, OmniView.
We will pay monthly recurring fees of $4,000 plus 115% of actual Azure usage costs. There may also be additional hourly fees from time
to time for projects or problem resolution outside the scope of the premium cloud operations services platform. This agreement will replace
our current cloud hosting service provider to whom we pay monthly recurring fees of approximately $6,000 plus 100% of actual Azure usage
costs.

 On
November 7, 2023, we entered into a non-exclusive reseller agreement with one of the nation's largest commercial generator dealers
with regional dealerships throughout the United States. We believe this agreement could yield 2,500 to 3,000 new monitoring connections
per year for OmniMetrix, which could represent hardware sales, start-up fees and monitoring revenue of $1 million to $2 million per year
in the aggregate. Importantly, endpoints added from this relationship are expected to make a meaningful contribution to the growth of
our base of recurring monitoring revenue. We expect initial revenue from this relationship to start in the first quarter of 2024 and
to build as the program is rolled out across their dealer network.

 On October 1, 2023, we deployed our
new user interface to our customer data portal and made it available to customers. On March 17, 2021, we entered into a master services
agreement for the development of a new user interface for our customer data portal. Prior to deployment on October 1, 2023, we had invested
$194,000 in design, development and quality assurance services of the new user interface. Since deployment, our customers have the option
to continue to use the "classic view" of our user interface, which is our original user interface, or our new user interface
known as "OV2" until March 4, 2024 when we will officially terminate our original user interface. The cost of this project
was capitalized, and amortization began as of October 1, 2023. We have continued to implement bug fixes and enhancements to OV2, for which
any related IT costs have been expensed as incurred.

 On
September 5, 2023, the Board of Directors of Acorn approved a Certificate of Amendment to Acorn's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
(the "Certificate of Amendment") that provided for a 1-for-16 reverse stock split of Acorn's Common Stock (the "Reverse
Stock Split"). Acorn filed the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 6, 2023,
and the Reverse Stock Split became effective at 5:00 p.m. EDT on September 7, 2023. The Reverse Stock Split increased the market price
of Acorn's Common Stock and makes Acorn's shares accessible to a broader range of investors, including institutions and those
unable to purchase or recommend low-priced stocks. At the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, every sixteen issued and outstanding
shares of Acorn's Common Stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change
in the par value per share. Stockholders who would have otherwise been entitled to fractional shares of Common Stock as a result of the
Reverse Stock Split received a cash payment in lieu of receiving fractional shares. The value of the fractional shares repurchased was
$347 and equated to fifty-eight shares. All share and per-share amounts of common stock, options and warrants contained in this Management's
Discussion and Analysis have been restated for all periods to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split and the related fractional
share repurchase for all prior periods presented.

 On
September 1, 2023, we launched an updated version of our products that includes new functionality in our TrueGuard, AIRGuard,
Patriot and Hero products that allows our customers to have options as it relates to obtaining and utilizing the data that is
provided by our hardware devices. This new functionality allows for SIM card options, configuration options regarding IP address
endpoints and DNS routes, and access to our over-the-air data protocol. This product update allows customers to have the option to
purchase our monitoring service, monitor the products themselves if they have the ability in-house, or choose another monitoring
provider if they so desire, whereas, historically, our standard products only functioned with our monitoring services. Modifications
were made to the circuit boards and embedded firmware of hardware enclosures in stock as of August 31, 2023 such that only the new
versions of these products were sold subsequent to this date.

 In
July 2022, we announced a partnership between OmniMetrix, CPower Energy Management (" CPower "), and Power Solutions
Specialists TX ("PSS") designed to help homeowners that install next-generation standby generators to earn compensation for
offering grid relief, known as "demand response," to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas ("ERCOT"). CPower's
demand response solutions, combined with OmniMetrix's remote control capabilities, allow the shifting of electricity production
to PSS's best-in-class residential standby generators for a few hours each year when the grid is stressed or ERCOT energy pricing
is high, without the homeowner needing to take any action. Homeowners are compensated for signing up and possibly supplying grid offload
by running their generators for up to 12 hours per year. We are currently assisting PSS to market the demand response program to generator
owners and will incentivize existing generator owners who sign up and satisfy certain terms and conditions by offering a one-time rebate
of $200 to anyone who signs up before March 31, 2024.

 Critical
Accounting Estimates

 In
preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that have an impact on the asset, liability,
revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect our supplemental information disclosures, including information
about contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe, given current facts and circumstances, that our estimates and assumptions
are reasonable, adhere to U.S. GAAP, and are consistently applied. Inherent in the nature of an estimate or assumption is the fact that
actual results may differ from estimates and estimates may vary as new facts and circumstances arise. We make routine estimates and judgments
in determining net realizable value of accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, prepaid expenses, product warranties and other reserves as well
as the amortization period for deferred commissions payable. Management believes our most critical accounting estimates and assumptions
are in the area of revenue recognition.

Recognition

 Our
revenue recognition policy is consistent with applicable revenue recognition guidance and interpretations. The core principle of ASC
606 is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle, which
includes: (1) identifying contracts with customers, (2) identifying performance obligations within those contracts, (3) determining the
transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, which may include an estimate
of variable consideration, and (5) recognizing revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied. We assess whether payment
terms are customary or extended in accordance with normal practice relative to the market in which the sale is occurring. Our sales arrangements
generally include standard payment terms. These terms effectively relate to all customers, products, and arrangements regardless of customer
type, product mix or arrangement size. A critical estimate is the estimated life of our units in determining the period over which the
hardware revenue was amortized for the units sold prior to September 1, 2023.

 RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

 The
selected consolidated statement of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and consolidated balance sheet data
as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report.

 On
September 1, 2023, OmniMetrix launched an updated version of its products that includes new functionality in its TrueGuard,
AIRGuard, Patriot and Hero products that allows its customers to have options as it relates to obtaining and utilizing the data that
is provided by its hardware devices. This new functionality allows for SIM card options, configuration options regarding IP address
endpoints and DNS routes, and access to OmniMetrix's over-the-air data protocol. This product update allows customers to have
the option to purchase OmniMetrix's monitoring service, monitor the products themselves if they have the ability in-house, or
choose another monitoring provider if they so desire. OmniMetrix's prior hardware product version could not function as a
distinct product from its monitoring services. This new version's functionality results in OmniMetrix's hardware and
monitoring services being capable of being two distinct products and services. OmniMetrix recognizes revenue, COGS and commissions
from the sale of the new version of its hardware products sold when the product is shipped rather than over the estimated time that
the unit is in service for the customer. Monitoring revenue continues to be deferred and amortized over the period that the
monitoring services are rendered. The remaining balance of deferred revenue from the prior version of these products will continue
to be amortized each period until it is fully amortized. Modifications were made to the circuit boards and embedded firmware of
hardware enclosures in stock as of August 31, 2023, such that only the new versions of these products were sold subsequent to this
date.

 Revenue.
 In 2023, OmniMetrix recorded total revenue of $8,059,000, as compared to total revenue of $7,000,000 in 2022, for an increase of
$1,059,000 (15%). As previously stated, OmniMetrix has two divisions: PG and CP. The PG segment includes our monitoring device for generators,
industrial air compressors and our annunciator products. The CP segment includes our monitoring device for cathodic protection systems
on gas pipelines serving the gas utilities market and pipeline operators. In 2023, revenue of $7,000,000 was attributed to the PG segment
and revenue of $1,059,000 was attributed to the CP segment, as compared to the 2022 revenue of $5,894,000 that was attributed to the
PG segment and $1,106,000 that was attributed to the CP segment. Hardware revenue increased $709,000 from $3,088,000 during the year
ended December 31, 2022 to $3,797,000 during the year ended December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded $259,000
in revenue from the sale of custom TG Pro units that were designed to large customer specifications and monitored by the customer; thus,
the revenue was not deferred. We did not have any custom unit orders in the year ended December 31, 2022. The hardware revenue during
the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is further detailed in the table below:

 The
PG hardware revenue during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $2,234,000 compared to $2,735,000, excluding the sale of custom units,
during the year ended December 31, 2023; thus, the increase in PG hardware revenue excluding the custom units was 22%. We also had a
decrease in CP hardware revenue of $51,000 (6%) to $803,000 during the year ended December 31, 2023 from $854,000 during the year ended
December 31, 2022. The increase in total hardware revenue was due to the sale of custom PG units (as noted above) and increased sales
of other PG products as well as from installation income realized, offset by a decrease in revenue from Hero products in the CP segment. Monitoring revenue increased $350,000 (9%) from $3,912,000 in the year ended December 31, 2022
to $4,262,000 in the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in monitoring revenue was due to an increase in the number of connections
being monitored and growth in our c ustomer base.

 Gross
profit. Gross profit was $6,004,000, reflecting a gross margin of 74% on revenue, in 2023 compared with a gross profit
of $5,071,000, reflecting a 72% gross margin on revenue, in 2022. Gross margin on hardware revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023
was 54% compared to 48% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in gross margin was due to a higher gross margin realized
in 2023 on a large volume of sales to two large commercial customers to whom there were no sales in 2022. Gross margin on monitoring
revenue was 93% for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 92% for year ended December 31, 2022.

 Research
and development ("R&D") expense. During 2023, OmniMetrix recorded $875,000 of R&D expense as compared to
$845,000 in 2022, an increase of $30,000 (4%). The increase in R&D expense in 2023 is related to increases in wages and bonuses
paid to our engineering personnel in 2023 and the expenses and materials paid to third-party consultants in the continued
development of next-generation PG and CP products and exploration into potential new product lines. We expect a moderate
increase in R&D expense for 2024 due to engineering salary increases granted effective October 1, 2023 and for continued
investment in work on certain initiatives to redesign products and expand product lines to increase our level of innovation ahead of
our competitors.

 Selling,
general and administrative ("SG&A") expense. Consolidated SG&A expense in 2023 increased by $251,000 (5%), from
$4,804,000 in 2022 to $5,055,000 in 2023. Corporate overhead increased by $98,000 (10%), from $959,000 in 2022 to $1,057,000 in 2023,
primarily due to $102,000 in expenses related to the execution of the reverse stock split in 2023.

SG&A expense increased $153,000 (4%), from $3,845,000 in 2022 to $3,998,000 in 2023. This increase was primarily due to increases
of (i) $102,000 in personnel expenses related to staff additions, promotions, bonuses and cost of living wage increases, (ii) $101,000
in commission expenses, (iii) $42,000 in depreciation and amortization primarily related to IT assets, (iv) $16,000 in travel and trade
show expenses, and offset by a decrease of $107,000 in technology expenses primarily in technology consulting and $1,000 in net aggregate
decreases in other expense categories. We anticipate that our annual SG&A costs in 2024 will increase by approximately 15% due to
increasing wage and benefit expenses as a result of merit increases, promotions and hiring a higher level skill
set in certain roles in 2023 as well as other inflationary increases in other operational costs.

 Finance
income/expense, net. Interest income in the year ended December 31, 2023 was $67,000 due to high interest rates on cash balances
offset by interest expense of $3,000, compared to interest expense of $2,000 in 2022. The interest expense is primarily related
to insurance financing arrangements.

 Income
tax expense. State income tax expense was $9,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023 reflecting estimates for certain state taxes. There was no state income tax estimated/accrued for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 Net
income (loss) attributable to Acorn Energy. We had net income attributable to Acorn of $119,000 in 2023 compared to net loss attributable
to Acorn of $633,000 in 2022. Our income in 2023 is comprised of net income at OmniMetrix of $1,185,000, corporate expense of $1,056,000,
offset by $10,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our income in OmniMetrix. Our loss in 2022 is comprised of net income
at OmniMetrix of $331,000, corporate expense of $962,000, offset by $2,000 representing the non-controlling interest share of our income
in OmniMetrix. The positive change in net income (loss) was due to the increase in gross margin as described above.

 LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 At
December 31, 2023, we had a negative working capital of $571,000. Our working capital includes $1,449,000 of cash and deferred revenue
of $4,034,000. Such deferred revenue does not require a significant cash outlay for the revenue to be recognized. Total deferred revenue
decreased by $587,000, from $6,171,000 at December 31, 2022 to $5,584,000 at December 31, 2023, as a result of the sales mix of products
sold. Based on the current products being sold, the Company expects continued decreases in the deferred revenue balance in the foreseeable
future. Net cash decreased during the year ended December 31, 2023 by $1,000, of which $72,000 was provided by operating activities,
$78,000 was used in investing activities, and $5,000 was provided by financing activities.

the year ended December 31, 2023, our operating activities provided $72,000 of net cash. Our OmniMetrix subsidiary provided $1,147,000
from its operations while our corporate headquarters used $1,075,000 in its operating activities during the period. OmniMetrix's
inventory balance increased by $173,000 at December 31, 2023 as compared to December 31, 2022, due to purchase orders placed to have
sufficient safety stock on hand for anticipated growth in 2024. We expect to sell through the excess inventory in 2024. During the year
ended December 31, 2022, our operating activities provided $31,000 of net cash. Our OmniMetrix subsidiary provided $916,000 from its
operations while our corporate headquarters used $885,000 in its operating activities during the period.

the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash of $78,000 was used in investing activities, primarily related to the continued development
of our new user interface for our customer monitoring data portal (OmniView 2.0). During the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash of
$308,000 was used in investing activities, primarily in our technology infrastructure. These investments were primarily related to the
design of our new Azure cloud server environment, as well as investments in the development of OmniView 2.0 and hardware and software
upgrades.

 Net
cash of $5,000 was provided by financing activities during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 which represents proceeds from
the exercise of warrants and proceeds from the exercise of stock options, respectively.

 Other
Liquidity Matters

owes Acorn $2,657,000 for loans, accrued interest, dividends and expenses advanced to it by Acorn. OmniMetrix has made monthly payments
to Acorn of varying amounts since the second quarter of 2019. In 2023, OmniMetrix made payments to Acorn of $1,285,000 offset by interest
of $164,000, dividends of $76,000 due to Acorn and $25,000 in shared expenses paid by Acorn. OmniMetrix will continue to make payments
to Acorn against this balance as long as OmniMetrix is generating sufficient cash to allow such repayments. This intercompany balance
is eliminated in consolidation.

 We
had $1,449,000 of cash on December 31, 2023, and $1,236,000 on March 5, 2024. We believe that such cash, plus the cash
expected to be generated from operations, will provide sufficient liquidity to finance the corporate activities of Acorn and the
operating activities of OmniMetrix at their current level of operations for at least the twelve-month period from the issuance of
the audited consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report. We may, at some point, elect to obtain a new line of credit or other source
of financing to fund additional investments in the business. If we decide to pursue additional financing in the future, it may be in
the form of a bank line, a new loan or investment by others, an equity raise by Acorn which could then facilitate a loan by Acorn to
OmniMetrix, or any combination thereof. Whether alternative funds, such as third-party loans or investments, will be available at
the time required and on terms acceptable to Acorn and OmniMetrix cannot be determined at this time.

 ITEM
7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 General

 We
are required to make certain disclosures regarding our financial instruments, including derivatives, if any.

 A
financial instrument is defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract that imposes on one entity a contractual
obligation either to deliver or receive cash or another financial instrument to or from a second entity. Examples of financial instruments
include cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade accounts receivable, loans, investments, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses,
options and forward contracts. The disclosures below include, among other matters, the nature and terms of derivative transactions, information
about significant concentrations of credit risk, and the fair value of financial assets and liabilities.

 Fair
Value of Financial Instruments

 Fair
values of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are estimated to approximate their book values due
to the short maturity of such investments.

 Concentrations
of Credit Risk

 The
Company's financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of
cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company's cash was deposited with a U.S. bank and amounted to $1,449,000 at December 31,
2023. The Company had one customer that represented 25% of its accounts receivable at December 31, 2023. This is a large corporate customer
with 90-day payment terms. Credit risk with respect to the balance of trade receivables is generally diversified due to the number of
entities comprising the Company's customer base. The Company does not believe the risk of non-performance by
these counterparties is significant.

 Interest
Rate Risk

has no interest rate risk related to debt since the Company paid off our credit line in February 2021.

 ITEM
9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 Our
management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and
CFO concluded that, due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below, our disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023.

 Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting

 Management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange
Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation
of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based upon the document "Internal
Control - Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").
Based upon this assessment and those criteria, management concluded that due to the material weaknesses described below, our internal
control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023.

 The
Company employs a decentralized internal control methodology, coupled with management's oversight, whereby its subsidiary is responsible
for mitigating its risks to financial reporting by implementing and maintaining effective control policies and procedures and subsequently
translating that respective risk mitigation up and through to the parent level and to the Company's external consolidated financial
statements. Also, as the Company's subsidiary is not large enough to effectively mitigate certain risks by segregating incompatible
duties, management must employ compensating mechanisms throughout the Company in a manner that is feasible within the constraints it
operates.

 The
material weaknesses management identified were caused by an insufficient complement of resources at the Company's OmniMetrix subsidiary
and limited IT system capabilities, such that individual control policies and procedures could not be implemented, maintained, or remediated
when and where necessary. More specifically, there were weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting related
to ineffective design and implementation of information technology general controls ("ITGCs") in the areas of user access,
program change management and vendor management controls.

 As
a result, a majority of the significant process areas management identified for the Company's OmniMetrix subsidiary had three material weaknesses present. This condition was further exacerbated as the Company could not demonstrate that each of the principles
described within COSO's document "Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)" were present and functioning.

 A
material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified and the related risks are not
uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the location, size and number of our staff. The material weaknesses
identified, however, did not result in any material misstatements of the Company's consolidated financial statements and
disclosures for any interim periods during, or for, the annual period ended December 31, 2023.

 Remediation
Actions

 Management
intends to continue to focus on strengthening the Company's internal controls. Management expects to make progress towards reducing
the risk that the material weakness could result in a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial
statements. As business conditions allow and resources permit, management will continue to systematically build the necessary capabilities
and infrastructure to implement corrective action. Our remediation actions include but are not limited to implementing change controls
to document approval of changes along with required peer review and tagging of changes to an approved help desk ticket, requesting SOC
reports from our vendors on a set schedule to review and address prior to year-end, and continue focused review of the COSO Framework
to identify areas where we can implement manual controls or multi-level reviews of additional staff members to more effectively address
segregation of duties.

 Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 Other
than the material weaknesses and remediation actions noted above there were no material changes in our internal control over financial
reporting during our fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023, that could significantly affect, that materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 Each
non-employee Director (other than the Executive Chairman) receives an annual retainer of $15,000, plus an annual grant on January 1 of
an option to purchase 625 shares of Company Common Stock.

 Upon
a non-employee Director's first election or appointment to the Board, such newly elected/appointed Director will be granted an
option to purchase 1,562 shares of Company Common Stock. Each option so granted to a newly elected/appointed Director shall vest for
the purchase of one-third of the shares purchasable under such option on each of the three anniversaries following the date of first
election or appointment.

 All
options granted to non-employee Directors shall have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company's Common
Stock on its then-current trading platform or exchange on the last trading day immediately preceding the date of grant, and shall,
except as described in the preceding paragraph, vest in four quarterly installments beginning on the grant date. Once vested, such options
shall be exercisable in whole or in part at all times until the earliest of (i) seven years from the date of grant or (ii) 18 months
from the date such Director ceases to be a Director, officer, employee of, or consultant to, the Company.

 The
chair of the Audit Committee receives an additional annual retainer of $10,000; each Audit Committee member other than the chair receives
an additional annual retainer of $2,000.

 Each
Director may, in his discretion, elect by written notice delivered on or before the first day of each calendar year whether to receive,
in lieu of some or all of his retainer and board fees, that number of shares of Company Common Stock as shall have a value equal to the
applicable retainer and board fees, based on the closing price of the Company's Common Stock on its then-current trading platform
or exchange on the last trading day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable year. Once made, the election shall be irrevocable
for such election year and the shares subject to the election shall vest and be issued one-fourth upon the first day of the election
year and one-fourth as of the first day of each of the second through fourth calendar quarters thereafter during the remainder of the
election year. A newly-elected or appointed Director may, in his or her discretion, make such an election for the balance of the year
in which he or she was elected/appointed by written notice delivered on or before the tenth day after his or her election/appointment
to the Board, with the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such newly elected/appointed Director's election to

Fees were for professional services rendered for the audits of the consolidated financial statements of the Company, assistance with
review of documents filed with the SEC, consents, and other assistance required to be performed by our independent accountants. The audit
fees per the engagement letters were $121,000 for 2023 and $99,500 for 2022 which represents a 22% increase year over year. The difference
in the audit fees in the table above is due to the timing of when the audit services were performed.

 Pre-Approval
Policies and Procedures

 The
Audit Committee's current policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services that are to be performed and fees to be charged
by our independent auditor to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the independence of the auditor. The Audit
Committee pre-approved all audit and non-audit services rendered by our principal accountant in 2023 and 2022.

 REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 To
the Board of Directors and

 Stockholders
Acorn Energy, Inc.

 Opinion
on the Financial Statements

 We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Acorn Energy, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of
December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders deficit, and cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the
"financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

 Basis
for Opinion

 These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's
financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 We
conducted our audit s in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit s
 to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or
fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
As part of our audit s we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.

 Our
audit s included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit s also included evaluating the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe
that our audit s provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 Critical
Audit Matters

 Critical
audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be
communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and
(2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

 NOTE
1— NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 (a)
Description of Business

 Acorn
Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries, OMX Holdings, Inc. and OmniMetrix, LLC (collectively, "Acorn" or "the Company")
is a Delaware corporation which is a holding company focused on technology-driven solutions for energy infrastructure asset management.

 See
Notes 12 and 13 for segment information and major customers.

 (b)
Liquidity

 As
of December 31, 2023, the Company had $ 1,449,000 of consolidated cash.

 At
December 31, 2023, the Company had a negative working capital of $ 571,000. Its working capital includes $ 1,449,000 of cash and deferred
revenue of $ 4,034,000. Such deferred revenue does not require a significant cash outlay for the revenue to be recognized. Total deferred
revenue decreased by $ 587,000, from $ 6,171,000 at December 31, 2022 to $ 5,584,000 at December 31, 2023, as a result of the sales mix
of products sold. Based on the current products being sold, the Company expects continued decreases in the deferred revenue balance in
the foreseeable future. The balance of deferred hardware revenue at December 31, 2023 will continue to be amortized over the months remaining
in the three-year period since the hardware's original date of shipment. Net cash decreased during the year ended December 31,
2023 by $ 1,000, with $ 72,000 provided by operating activities, $ 78,000 used in investing activities, and $ 5,000 provided
by financing activities.

 As
of March 5, 2024, the Company had cash of $ 1,236,000.
The Company believes that such cash, plus the cash expected to be generated from operations, will provide sufficient liquidity to finance
the corporate activities of Acorn and operating activities of OmniMetrix at their current level of operations for at least the twelve-month
period from the issuance of these audited consolidated financial statements. The Company may, at some point, elect to obtain a new line
of credit or other source of financing to fund additional investments in the business. If the Company decides to pursue additional financing
in the future, it may be in the form of a bank line, a new loan or investment by others, an equity raise by Acorn which could then facilitate
a loan by Acorn to OmniMetrix, or any combination thereof. Whether alternative funds, such as third-party loans or investments, will
be available at the time and on terms acceptable to Acorn and OmniMetrix cannot be determined at this time.

 NOTE
2— SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 Basis
of Presentation

 The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America ("GAAP"). All dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand and, thus, are approximate.

 Principles
of Consolidation and Presentation

 The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. In these consolidated financial statements,
"subsidiaries" are companies that are over 50 % controlled, the accounts of which are consolidated with those of the Company.
Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation; profits from intercompany sales are also eliminated; non-controlling
interests are included in equity.

 Use
of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

 The
preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 As
applicable to these consolidated financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions relate to uncertainties with respect
to income taxes, inventories, account receivable allowances, contingencies, revenue recognition, management's projections and analyses
of the possible impairments.

 Accounts
Receivable and Credit Losses

 Accounts
receivable consists of trade receivables. Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowance for credit losses.

 The Company's trade receivables
primarily arise from the sale of our products to independent residential dealers, industrial distributors and dealers, national and regional
retailers, equipment distributors, and certain end users with payment terms generally ranging from 30 to 60 days. The Company evaluates
the credit risk of a customer when extending credit based on a combination of various financial and qualitative factors that may affect
the customer's ability to pay. These factors include the customer's financial condition and past payment experience.

 The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses, which represents
an estimate of expected losses over the remaining contractual life of its receivables considering current market conditions and estimates
for supportable forecasts when appropriate. The Company measures expected credit losses on its trade receivables on an entity-by-entity
basis. The estimate of expected credit losses considers a historical loss experience rate that is adjusted for delinquency trends, collection
experience, and/or economic risk where appropriate. Additionally, management develops a specific allowance for trade receivables known
to have a high risk of expected future credit loss.

 For
the Company, ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,"
applies to its contract assets (deferred COGS and deferred sales commissions, see Note 13), lease receivables (sublease, see Note 7)
and trade receivables. There are no expected or estimated credit losses on the Company's contract assets or its lease receivable
based on the Company's implementation of ASU 2016-13. See Note 4, Allowance for Credit Losses.

 Inventory

 Inventories
are comprised of components (raw materials), work-in-process and finished goods, which are measured at net realizable value.

 Raw
materials inventory is generally comprised of radios, cables, antennas, and electrical components. Finished goods inventory consists
of fully assembled systems ready for final shipment to the customer. Costs are determined at cost of acquisition on a weighted average
basis and include all outside production and applicable shipping costs.

 All
inventories are periodically reviewed to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventory. Management conducted an assessment and wrote-off
inventory valued at $ 8,000 and $ 41,000 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets

 The
Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, intangible assets subject to amortization, and right-of-use assets
on operating leases for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset
group may not be recoverable. These events or changes in circumstances include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance
relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the
strategy for the overall business, and significant negative industry or economic trends. Recoverability of assets to be held and used
is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset group to the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the estimated remaining
useful life of the primary asset included in the asset group. If the asset group is not recoverable, the impairment loss is calculated
as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value.

 F- 8

June 2022, the Company conducted an evaluation of the status of an ERP software customization project that had been initiated in July
2019 and was ongoing. As a result of this evaluation, the Company elected to terminate this project effective June 30, 2022 and recorded
an impairment against the capitalized investment in this project of $ 51,000.

 Non-Controlling
Interests

 The
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") requires that non-controlling interests be reported as a component of equity,
changes in a parent's ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling interest be accounted for as equity transactions,
and upon a loss of control, retained ownership interest be re-measured at fair value, with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. The
Company attributes the applicable percentage of income and losses to the non-controlling interests associated with OmniMetrix (see Note
3).

 Property
and Equipment

 Property
and equipment are presented at cost at the date of acquisition. Depreciation and amortization are calculated based on the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets, or in the case of leasehold improvements, the shorter of the lease
term or the estimated useful life of the asset, a portion of which is allocated to cost of sales. Improvements are capitalized while
repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

 Capitalization
of Software

 The Company
capitalizes certain implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a
service contract to develop or obtain internal-use software.
During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company capitalized internal-use software costs totaling $ 29,000
and $ 279,000, respectively.

Sales Commissions

 The
Company pays its employees sales commissions for sales of hardware and for first sales of monitoring services (not for renewals). In accordance
with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC 606"), the Company
capitalizes as a contract asset the sales commissions on these sales. Contract assets associated with hardware are amortized over the estimated
life of the units which are currently estimated to be three years. Contract assets associated with monitoring services are amortized
over the expected monitoring life, including renewals.

 Commissions
earned from the sales of the new hardware products will be recognized when the product is shipped. Commissions earned from the sales
of monitoring services continue to be deferred and amortized over the period of service.

 The
contract assets of deferred COGS and deferred sales commissions are subject to review under ASU 2016-13 (see Notes 2 and 4); however,
no credit losses on contract assets are expected based on the Company's implementation of ASU 2016-13.

 Leases

 The
Company determines if a contractual arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease
right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current operating lease liabilities, and noncurrent operating lease liabilities on the
Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates and classifies leases as operating or finance leases for
financial reporting purposes. The classification evaluation begins at the commencement date and the lease term used in the
evaluation includes the non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with
renewal option periods when the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably certain and failure to exercise such option would
result in an economic penalty. All of the Company's real estate leases are classified as operating leases.

 F- 9

 ROU
assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's
obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement
date of the lease based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease payments included in the present value
are fixed lease payments. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimates its collateralized
incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at the commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments.
The Company applies the portfolio approach in applying discount rates to its classes of leases. The operating lease ROU assets include
any payments made before the commencement date. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease
term. The Company does not currently have residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants in its leases.

 The
Company also made accounting policy elections by class of underlying asset to not apply the recognition requirements of the standard
to leases with terms of 12 months or less and to not separate non-lease components from lease components. Consequently, each separate
lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component will be accounted for as a single lease component for
lease classification, recognition, and measurement purposes.

 The
lease obligation liability was $ 221,000 and $ 336,000 as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which includes the
office space lease and an office equipment lease entered into in April 2019.

Stock

 Shares
of common stock repurchased are recorded at cost as treasury stock. When shares are reissued, the cost method is used for determining
cost. In accordance with GAAP, the excess of the acquisition cost over the reissuance price of the treasury stock, if any, is charged
to additional paid-in capital, limited to the amount previously credited to additional paid-in capital, if any. Any excess is charged
to accumulated stockholders' deficit.

Recognition

 The
Company's revenue recognition policy is consistent with applicable revenue recognition guidance and interpretations. The core principle
of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue when promised
goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those
goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle, which includes: (1) identifying contracts with
customers, (2) identifying performance obligations within those contracts, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the
transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, which may include an estimate of variable consideration, and (5) recognizing
revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company assesses whether payment terms are customary or extended in
accordance with normal practice relative to the market in which the sale is occurring. The Company's sales arrangements generally
include standard payment terms. These terms effectively relate to all customers, products, and arrangements regardless of customer type,
product mix or arrangement size. See Note 13, Revenue, for further discussion.

 Revenue from sales of the hardware products that are distinct products
are recorded when shipped while the revenue from sales of the hardware products (product versions sold prior to September 1, 2023) that
were not separable from the Company's monitoring services was deferred and amortized over the estimated unit life. Revenue
from the prepayment of monitoring fees (generally paid twelve months in advance) are recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt of payment
from the customer and then amortized to revenue over the monitoring service period. See Notes 12 and 13 for the disaggregation of the
Company's revenue for the periods presented.

 Any
sales tax, value added tax, and other tax the Company collects concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue.

 Warranty
Provision

generally grants their customers a one-year warranty on their products. Estimated warranty obligations are provided for as a cost of
sales in the period in which the related revenues are recognized, based on management's estimate of future potential warranty
obligations and historical experience. Adjustments are made to accruals as warranty claim data and historical experience warrant.
The Company's warranty obligations may be materially affected by product or service failure rates and other costs incurred in
correcting a product or service failure. Should actual product or service failure rates or other related costs differ from the
Company's estimates, revisions to the accrued warranty liability would be required.

 F- 10

 Concentration
of Credit Risk

 The
Company's financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of
cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company's cash was deposited with a U.S. bank and amounted to $ 1,449,000 at December 31,
2023. The Company does not believe there is significant risk of non-performance by these counterparties. See Note 12(d) with respect
to revenue from significant customers and concentrations of trade accounts receivables.

 Financial
Instruments

 Fair
values of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are estimated to approximate their book values, due
to the short maturity of such instruments.

 Research
and Development Expenses

 Research
and development expenses consist primarily of labor and related expenses and are charged to operations as incurred.

 Advertising
Expenses

 Advertising
expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expense was $ 24,000 and $ 16,000 for each of the years ended December 31,
2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.

 Stock-Based

 The
Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees in accordance with applicable accounting principles, which requires compensation
expense related to share-based transactions, including employee stock options, to be measured and recognized in the consolidated financial
statements based on a determination of the fair value of the stock options. The grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton
("Black-Scholes") pricing model. For all employee stock options, the Company recognizes expense over the requisite service
period on an accelerated basis over the employee's requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).
Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company's option pricing model requires
the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, expected term, and forfeiture rate. Any changes
in these highly subjective assumptions significantly impact stock-based compensation expense.

 Options
awarded to purchase shares of common stock issued to non-employees in exchange for services are accounted for as variable awards in accordance
with applicable accounting principles. Such options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model when the services are performed.

 See
Note 9(b) for the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock-based employee compensation. Upon the exercise of options, it
is the Company's policy to issue new shares rather than utilizing treasury shares.

 Sales
Taxes

 On
June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an opinion in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., 138 S. Ct. 2080 (2018), whereby the longstanding
Quill Corp v. North Dakota sales tax case was overruled, and states may now require remote sellers to collect sales tax under certain
circumstances. In 2020, the Company began collecting sales tax in nearly all states that have sales tax. The Company accrued sales taxes
in the states with sales tax. The Company accrued the liability from the effective date of a state's adoption of the Wayfair decision
up to the date the Company began collecting and filing sales taxes in the various states. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022,
the amount of such accrual was $ 13,000 and $ 51,000, respectively.

 F- 11

 The
Company accrues sales taxes based on determination of which of its products/services are subject to sales tax, and in which states and
jurisdictions the tax applies. Further, the Company must determine which of its customers are exempt from the Company charging sales
tax because the customer is a reseller or self-assesses and direct pays to states and other jurisdictions on purchases the customer makes
from the Company. These determinations contain estimates and are subject to judgment and interpretation by taxing authorities in various
states and other jurisdictions, which could result in recognizing materially different amounts in future periods.

Income Taxes

income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, as well as operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current. Valuation allowances are established against deferred tax assets if
it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates or laws is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment
date. See Note 10(d) for the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

 Income
Tax Uncertainties

 The
calculation of the Company's tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations.
The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on the two-step process prescribed by applicable accounting principles.
The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is
more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if
any. The second step requires the Company to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more likely than not
being realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as this requires the Company
to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company reevaluates these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis.
This evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively
settled issues under audit, and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in the recognition of a
tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision in the period. The Company recognizes interest and penalties as incurred in
finance income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

 As
of December 31, 2023 and 2022, no interest or penalties were accrued on the consolidated balance sheets related to uncertain tax positions.

the years ending December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no changes in unrecognized tax benefits or associated interest and penalties
as a result of tax positions made during the current or prior periods with respect to its continuing operations.

 The
Company is subject to U.S. Federal and state income tax. As of January 1, 2023, the Company is no longer subject to examination by U.S.
Federal taxing authorities for years before 2019, or for years before 2018 for state income taxes.

 Basic
and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 Basic
net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Acorn Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the year, excluding treasury stock. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number
of shares outstanding plus the dilutive potential of common shares which would result from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
The dilutive effects of stock options and warrants are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share if doing so would
be antidilutive.

 The
combined weighted average number of options and warrants that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as they
had an antidilutive effect, was 17,000 (which have a weighted average exercise price of $ 9.42) and 62,000 (which had a weighted average
exercise price of $ 6.29) for the years ending December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively (as adjusted to account for the September 2023
1-for-16 reverse stock split).

 Fair
Value Measurement

 The
Company follows the provisions of the accounting standard which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. Under these provisions, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date.

 The
standard establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the
use on unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.
Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed
based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is described below:

 Level
1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value
hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 Level
2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.

 Level
3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level
3 inputs.

 The
carrying amounts for cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their fair value because of their short-term maturity.
The Company determined that the carrying amount of the lease liabilities approximate fair value since the applicable interest rate approximated
fair value at the time the leases were entered into. While the Company believes the carrying value of the assets and liabilities are
reasonable, considerable judgment is used to develop estimates of fair value; thus, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the
amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic
740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate
reconciliation, as well as information related to income taxes paid to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax
disclosures. This ASU will be effective for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the timing
and impacts of adoption of this ASU.

 Recently
Adopted Accounting Standards

 On
January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit
Losses on Financial Instruments." This guidance was issued to provide financial statement users with more useful information about
the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting
date. Specifically, this guidance requires entities to utilize a new "expected loss" model as it relates to trade and other
receivables. The adoption of the standard impacts the way the Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts on its trade and
other receivables. Refer to Note 4, "Allowance for Credit Losses," for further information regarding the Company's
allowance for expected credit losses.

leases office space and office equipment under operating lease agreements. The office lease has an expiration date of September 30, 2025.
The office equipment lease was entered into in April 2019 and has a sixty-month term. Operating lease payments for 2023 and 2022 were
$ 128,000 and $ 124,000, respectively. The future minimum lease payments on non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2023 using
a discount rate of 4.5 % are $ 221,000. The 4.5 % used is the incremental borrowing rate (established at the commencement of the lease)
which, as defined in ASC 842, is the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, over a similar
term and in a similar economic environment, an amount equal to the lease payments.

 On
July 6, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with King Industrial Realty, Inc., to sublease from the Company 1,900 square feet
of office space of the Company's 21,000 square feet of office and production space in the Hamilton Mill Business Park located in
Buford, Georgia, for a monthly sublease payment of $ 2,375 (plus an annual escalator each year of 3%) which includes the base rent plus
a pro-rata share of utilities, property taxes and insurance. Fifty percent of any excess rent received above the per square foot amount
that the Company pays will be remitted to the Company's landlord less the allocation of any shared expenses and leasehold improvements
specific to the sublease. As of December 31, 2023, after the offset of the investment in leasehold improvements and other expenses related
to the sublease, the Company paid its landlord $ 12,000 for its share of the sublease profit since the lease commencement. The estimated
amount the Company expects to remit to the landlord each year of the sublease subsequent to December 31, 2023 is $ 6,500 per year. The
sublease commenced on October 1, 2021 and will run through September 30, 2025 which is the end of the Company's lease term with
its landlord. Below are the future payments expected under the sublease net of the estimated annual service cost of $ 2,750 (gross of
the estimated amount expected to be remitted to our landlord):

 NOTE
9— EQUITY

 All
information below includes adjustments where applicable to account for the September 2023 1-for-16 reverse stock split.

 (a)
Summary Employee Option Information

 The
Company's stock option plans provide for the grant to officers, directors and employees of options to purchase shares of
common stock. The purchase price may be paid in cash or, if the option is "in-the-money" at the end of the option term,
it is automatically exercised "net". In a net exercise of an option, the Company does not require a payment of the
exercise price of the option from the option holder but reduces the number of shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of the
option by the smallest number of whole shares that has an aggregate fair market value equal to or in excess of the aggregate
exercise price for the option shares covered by the option exercised. Each option is exercisable for one share of the
Company's common stock. Most options expire within five to ten years from the date of the grant, and generally vest over a
three-year period from the date of the grant.

 At
December 31, 2023, 76,769 options were available for grant under the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and no options were
available for grant under the 2006 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. In 2023 and 2022, 14,936 ( 11,874 to directors and executive
officers and 3,062 to other employees) and 9,110 ( 7,187 to directors and executive officers and 1,923 to other employees) options, respectively,
were granted. In 2023 and 2022, there were no grants to non-employees (other than the non-employee directors and executive officers).
The fair value of the options issued was $ 47,000 and $ 54,000 in 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 2,187
warrants and no options were exercised in the year ended December 31, 2023. 2,187 options were exercised in the year ended December 31,
2022. The intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable at December 31, 2023 was $ 40,000 and $ 35,000, respectively.
The intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable at December 31, 2022 was $ 16,000 and $ 13,000, respectively.

 The
Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value, utilizing the following assumptions for the respective
years (all in weighted averages):

 The
expected term of the options is the length of time until the expected date of exercising the options. With respect to determining expected
exercise behavior, the Company has grouped its option grants into certain groups in order to track exercise behavior and establish historical
rates. The Company estimated volatility by considering historical stock volatility over the expected term of the option. The risk-free
interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yields for a period consistent with the expected term. The Company expects no dividends
to be paid. The Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate
in determining the estimated fair value of the Company's stock options granted in the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Estimates
of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.

 Valuation

tax losses related the Company's OmniMetrix subsidiary and book-tax differences related to asset impairments, deferred revenue,
capitalized Section 174 expenditures, and stock-based compensation expense of the Company. The Company continually evaluates the likelihood
of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the
extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is more likely than not. The Company considers many factors when assessing the
likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction,
expectation of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other
relevant factors. As of December 31, 2023, based on the Company's history of earnings and its assessment of future earnings, management
believes that it is more likely than not that future taxable income will not be sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets. During
the year ended December 31, 2023, the gross deferred tax asset and the valuation allowance decreased by $ 567,000.

 The
 utilization of a portion of these net operating loss carryforwards is limited due to limits on utilizing net operating loss carryforwards
 under Internal Revenue Service regulations for separate return limitation years.

 Effective
for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021, taxpayers are required to capitalize any expenses incurred that are considered incidental
to research and experimentation (R&E) activities under IRC Section 174. While taxpayers historically had the option of deducting
these expenses under IRC Section 174, the December 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act mandates capitalization and amortization of R&E expenses
for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. Expenses incurred in connection with R&E activities in the US must be amortized
over a 5-year period if incurred. R&E activities are broader in scope than qualified research activities considered under IRC Section
41 (relating to the research tax credit). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company performed an analysis based on available
guidance and capitalized the required R&E costs. The Company will continue to monitor this issue for future developments.

 The
Company files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business,
the Company is subject to examinations by federal, foreign, and state and local jurisdictions, where applicable. There are currently
no pending tax examinations. The Company's tax years are still open under statute from 2019 to the present in the U.S. and from
2017 to 2018 in the Company's foreign operations. To the extent the Company has tax attribute carryforwards, the tax years in
which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state and local tax authorities
to the extent utilized in a future period.

 The
Company is also subject to certain non-income taxes such as value added taxes, sales taxes, and property taxes. The Company has taken
certain positions that management feels, although not free from doubt, should not result in a successful challenge by certain tax authorities.

 NOTE
12— SEGMENT REPORTING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

 (a)
General Information

 As
of December 31, 2023, the Company continues to operate in two reportable operating segments, PG and CP, both of which are performed through the
Company's OmniMetrix subsidiary. See Note 1, Nature of Operations, for a description of these segments.

 The
Company's reportable segments are strategic business units, offering different products and services and are managed separately
by the Chief Decision Maker (CDM) as each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

 F- 20

 (b)
Information about profit or loss and assets

 The
accounting policies of all the segments are those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates
performance based on net income or loss before taxes.

 The
Company does not systematically allocate assets to the divisions of the subsidiaries constituting its consolidated group, unless the
division constitutes a significant operation. Accordingly, where a division of a subsidiary constitutes a segment that does not meet
the quantitative thresholds of applicable accounting principles, depreciation expense is recorded against the operations of such segment,
without allocating the related depreciable assets to that segment. However, where a division of a subsidiary constitutes a segment that
does meet the quantitative thresholds, related depreciable assets, along with other identifiable assets, are allocated to such division.

 The
following tables represent segmented data for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands). The Company does not currently
break out total assets by reportable segment as there is a high level of shared utilization between the segments. Further, the CDM does
not review the assets by segment.

 NOTE
13— REVENUE

sells monitoring equipment ("HW") and monitoring services ("Monitoring"). Prior to September 1, 2023, sales of
OmniMetrix equipment typically did not qualify as a separate unit of accounting. As a result, revenue (and related costs) associated
with sale of equipment was recorded to deferred revenue (and deferred cost of goods sold) upon shipment of PG and CP monitoring units.
Revenue and related costs with respect to the sale of equipment were recognized over the estimated life of the units which was estimated
to be three years. On September 1, 2023, OmniMetrix launched an updated version of its products that includes new functionality in its
TrueGuard, AIRGuard, Patriot and Hero products that allows its customers to have options as it relates to obtaining and utilizing the
data that is provided by its hardware devices. This new functionality allows for SIM card options, configuration options regarding IP
address endpoints and DNS routes, and access to OmniMetrix's over-the-air data protocol. This product update allows customers to
have the option to purchase OmniMetrix's monitoring service, monitor the products themselves if they have the ability in-house,
or choose another monitoring provider if they so desire. OmniMetrix's prior hardware product version could not function as a distinct
product from its monitoring services. This new version's functionality results in OmniMetrix's hardware and monitoring services
being capable of being two distinct products and services. OmniMetrix recognizes revenue, COGS and commissions from the sale of the new
version of its hardware products sold when the product is shipped rather than over the estimated time that the unit is in service for
the customer. The remaining balance of deferred hardware revenue from the prior version of these products will continue to be amortized
each period until it is fully amortized. The modification to the circuit boards and embedded firmware of hardware enclosures in inventory
as of August 31, 2023 were made such that only the new version of these products was sold subsequent to this date.

 On
January 12, 2024, we entered into a new contract with our current primary data provider for Internet of Things (IoT) wireless services
for a 36-month contract term with automatic one-year extensions, subject to termination notice. The pricing structure involves account
setup, SIM charges, monthly revenue obligations, and various rate plans based on data usage and regions along with other optional services.
The monthly revenue obligation is $ 10,000 for the first 6 months and $ 15,000 thereafter. We will also be eligible for volume discounts
based on total monthly service revenue. Additionally, the agreement includes an IoT Enhanced Support and Priority Care Services Rate
Plan with various support service types and pricing tiers based on the number of devices and terms for SIM migrations, including tiered
pricing and conditions for waiver of certain charges during migration. This new agreement will allow us to migrate our customers to higher
tier data plans for nominal additional cost.
