Registration Statement on Form S-3

Filed July 29, 2019

File No. 333-232867

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is being submitted on behalf of Capstone Turbine Corporation (the “Company”) in response to the comment contained in the letter dated August 9, 2019 (the “Letter”) from the Staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to Darren R. Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, with respect to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 that was submitted on July 29, 2019.  The Company is concurrently filing an Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement (the “Amendment”), including changes in response to the Staff’s comments.

All page references in the Company’s response below are to the Amendment.  Two copies of this letter and the marked Amendment will be provided to Tim Buchmiller of the Commission.

Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed July 29, 2019

Description of Capital Stock, page 8

1.              We note that your forum selection provision in your bylaws identifies the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) as the exclusive forum for certain litigation, including any “derivative action.” Please clearly and prominently describe the provision and any risks or other impacts on investors in your prospectus. Include in the prospectus disclosure of whether the provision applies to actions arising under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. If so, please also state that there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision. If the provision applies to Securities Act claims, please also state that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations

thereunder. In that regard, we note that Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

RESPONSE:  The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 12 of the Amendment to clarify that the Delaware choice of forum provision in the Company’s bylaws does not apply to any actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and to describe the potential risks or other impacts to investors related to the Delaware choice of forum provision.

*                                         *                                         *

·             the action of the Commission or the staff of the Commission, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the Registration Statement effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the Registration Statement; and

Form 10-K

Filed June 13, 2013

File No. 001-15957

Dear Ms. Ravitz:

Below is the response of Capstone Turbine Corporation (the “Company”) to the comment issued by the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) in a letter to the Company dated September 27, 2013 regarding the above-referenced Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 (the “Form 10-K”).  The Staff’s comment is repeated and underlined below for convenience of reference.

Comment:

Item 11.  Executive Compensation

1.                                      We see from your disclosure in the “Summary Compensation Table” on page 35  of your proxy statement that you have incorporated by reference into your annual report on Form 10-K that the value of the fiscal 2013 stock and option awards to your named executive officers increased significantly, in some cases doubling, from the value of the same awards made in fiscal 2012. Please tell us, and expand your compensation discussion and analysis in future filings to disclose, as appropriate, how you determined the size of the stock and option awards granted to each named executive officer, how and why those stock and option awards varied among the named executive officers and how and why the compensation committee determined to increase or decrease the value of those awards as compared to the prior year. Refer to Regulation S-K Item 402(b)(1)(v) and (b)(2)(ix). For additional guidance, please see “Staff Observations in the Review of Executive Compensation Disclosure” available at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/guidance/execcompdisclosure.htm.

Response:

As we will be describing in detail below, the value of the awards in fiscal year 2013 were at historical levels. For fiscal year 2012, equity incentives were temporarily reduced by approximately half of the amounts awarded in fiscal year 2011 and in earlier years. This was a result of the depletion of shares available under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) in 2012 and is illustrated in the schedule of awards to named executive officers for fiscal years 2011 through 2014 attached hereto as Schedule 1.

The Compensation Committee sets the amount of stock incentive awards for each named executive officer on the basis of equity incentive awards made to comparable officers by peer companies. It also evaluates the level of equity incentives that have been previously awarded to each named executive officer. Distinctions between executive officers are based on comparison data and the Compensation Committee’s assessment of each individual. The Compensation Committee relies on comparative market data provided by its independent compensation consultant, Aon Hewitt (“Hewitt”). Such data includes comprehensive analyses of total compensation and compensation components based on published survey data sized to the Company’s total revenue and includes publicly-traded technology and manufacturing industry companies that are between $50 million and $200 million in revenue. This information includes share utilization and annual grant rates. The Compensation Committee also evaluates the total cost of its stock-based compensation programs, and the effect of such cost on the Company’s performance, based on information provided annually by, and in consultation with, Hewitt.

For fiscal year 2012, the shares available for awards under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan were substantially depleted. There were not enough shares to make awards that would have been in the normal range and as had been recommended by Hewitt under its normal analysis for fiscal year 2012. Therefore, in consultation with Hewitt, the Compensation Committee approved a reduction of approximately 48% of the proposed aggregate award. Proportionate reductions were made to the amounts that would have been awarded to each named executive officer. Stockholders approved adding 9,000,000 shares of stock for awards under the Equity Incentive Plan in fiscal year 2013. The subsequent awards for fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2014 reflect the availability of shares for awards that are more closely aligned with the Company’s historical practices.  Such awards were based on Hewitt’s analysis, and management was being rewarded for substantial progress towards internal goals. As requested by the Staff, the Company will expand its disclosure in future filings to include the requested items as appropriate.

In connection with this response, the Company acknowledges that: (i) the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; (ii) Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the Company’s filings; and (iii) the Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

If you or the Staff have any questions or comments regarding the Company’s response, please contact the undersigned at (818) 734-5300 or the Company’s legal counsel, J. Chase Cole at (615) 850-8476.

Dear Mr. Cascio:

Below is the response of Capstone Turbine Corporation (the “Company”) to the comments issued by the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) in a letter to the Company dated March 22, 2011 regarding the above-referenced Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 (the “Form 10-K”).  The Staff’s comments are repeated and underlined below for convenience of reference.

Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010

Item 8.  Financial Statements

Note 3.  Inventories, page F-15

1.             Comment:             In future filings please provide disclosure about the nature of non-current inventory, including the age of the inventory and the timeframe over which you expect to use the non-current inventory.  Please provide us a sample of proposed revised disclosure.

Response:             As requested by the Staff, the Company will expand its disclosure related to its non-current inventory in future filings.  Provided below is a sample of the Company’s proposed disclosure in the notes to its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011.  The following disclosure is based on unaudited preliminary amounts that are subject to change:

The non-current portion of inventories represents that portion of the inventories in excess of amounts expected to be used in the next twelve months. The non-current inventories are primarily comprised of repair parts for older generation products that are still in operation, but are not technologically compatible with current configurations. The weighted average age of the inventories on hand as of March 31, 2011 is 1.55 years. The Company expects to use the non-current portion of the inventories on hand as of March 31, 2011 over the periods presented in the following table:

Note 9.  Fair Value Measurements, page F-27

2.             Comment:            On page F-28 you disclose that the inputs to determine the fair value of the derivative warrant liability is Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.  Please tell us how you determined that the derivative warrant valuation is Level 2 as opposed to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.  Please note that under FASB ASC 820-10-35-37 the level in the fair value hierarchy should be determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  We also refer you to FASB ASC 820-10-55-22 which states that a Level 3 input would include historical volatility.

Response:             The Company disclosed in the notes to its consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2010 that the inputs to determine the fair value of the derivative warrant liability are Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because the applied historical volatility of the Company’s stock prices was based on observable inputs. However, in accordance with FASB ASC 820-10-55-22, the Company acknowledges that historical volatility represents a Level 3 input. Therefore, the Company will revise the fair value measurement disclosure in its future filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011 to state that the inputs to determine the fair value of the derivative warrant liability are Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company will include the required disclosures pertaining to a Level 3 fair value measurement in accordance with FASB ASC 820-50 for all periods presented.

The Company considered the quantitative and qualitative factors included in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 1.M (SAB 99), Materiality, and has determined that this correction of an error is not material to the financial statements.  This error would not have an effect on any amounts in the financial statements.  The previous disclosure included a description of the assumptions used in the valuation, which would not be impacted by the revised disclosure, thus the error would not impact the users’ of the financial statements ability to understand the manner in which the valuation was prepared.  As there is not a substantial likelihood that a reasonable user of the financial statements would be influenced by this disclosure, the Company will include

2

substantially the following disclosure related to a correction of an error in accordance with FASB ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, in its filing of the Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011:

In the notes to its consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company classified the inputs to determine the fair value of the warrant liability as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy; however, the Company has reclassified such warrant liability as Level 3 for all periods presented because the Company’s fair value determination was made using significant unobservable inputs.

In connection with this response, the Company acknowledges that: (i) the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; (ii) Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the Company’s filings; and (iii) the Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
