NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Arcimoto, Inc. (the “Company”, “We”, “Us”, or “Our”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007. The Company’s mission is to catalyze the global shift to a sustainable transportation system. Over the past 13 years, the Company has developed a new vehicle platform designed around the needs of everyday drivers. Having approximately one-third the weight and one-third of the footprint of the average car, the Arcimoto platform’s purpose is to bring the joy of ultra-efficient, pure electric driving to the masses. To date, the Company has introduced five vehicle products built on this platform that target specific niches in the vehicle market: our flagship product, the Fun Utility Vehicle® (“FUV®”), for everyday consumer trips; the Deliverator® for last-mile delivery and general fleet utility; the Rapid Responder™ for emergency services and security; the Cameo™ for film, sports and influencers; and the Arcimoto Roadster, an unparalleled pure-electric on-road thrill machine.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

We may, from time to time, be subject to recalls due to, among other things, software glitches and/or faulty parts which may require us to provide additional warranties to our customers. These additional warranties may have a negative impact on our financial resources, which may in turn, negatively impact our financial results.

 

Our current cost structure does not allow us to achieve profitability. Although we are constantly trying to improve our cost structure, we may not succeed in improving our structure to the point when we can achieve profitability consistently.

 

Although we expect our recent acquisition of TMW to positively impact our overall financial performance, the results may not justify our goodwill and intangible asset values. If this occurs, we will have to consider the recoverability of our values placed on our goodwill and intangible assets.

 

Finally, the Company may not have the capital resources necessary to further the development of existing and/or new products.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and management expects losses to continue for the foreseeable future. The Company had approximately $38,473,000 of cash as of June 30, 2021, which is in excess of cash needed for the next twelve months. In the event that additional funding is needed to sustain the business, the Company anticipates being able to obtain such funds through the capital markets and/or by re-financing its long-lived assets.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021, and the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and its related disclosures. Actual amounts could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for business combinations under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 “Business Combinations” using the acquisition method of accounting, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired business are recorded at their fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. Upon acquisition, the acquired assets and liabilities and results of operations are consolidated beginning at the acquisition date.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”) or market value. Inventories consist of purchased electric motors, electrical storage and transmission equipment, and component parts.

The Company is required to remit partial prepayments for some purchases of its inventories acquired from overseas vendors which are included in prepaid inventories. The Company is currently selling vehicles below the base cost of a finished unit. Accordingly, the Company expensed all labor and overhead as period costs and recorded an allowance to reduce inventories to net realizable value of approximately $597,000 and $550,000 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets primarily consist of trade names/trademarks, proprietary technology, and customer relationships. They are amortized using the straight-line method over a period of 10 to 14 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of its finite-lived intangible assets when there are indications of potential impairment. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for impairment annually.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company tests goodwill for potential impairment at least annually, or more frequently if an event or other circumstance indicates that the Company may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the net assets of the reporting unit. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company bypasses the qualitative assessment, or if the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the Company performs a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount.

 

The Company calculates the estimated fair value of a reporting unit using a weighting of the income and market approaches. For the income approach, the Company uses internally developed discounted cash flow models that include the following assumptions, among others: projections of revenues, expenses, and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. For the market approach, the Company uses internal analyses based primarily on market comparables. The Company bases these assumptions on its historical data and experience, third party appraisals, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and its expectations.

 

Net Earnings or Loss per Share

 

The Company’s computation of earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income (loss) available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., common stock warrants and common stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

 

Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for all periods presented because all common stock warrants and common stock options outstanding were anti-dilutive.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company excluded the outstanding Employee Equity Plans (“EEP”) and other securities summarized below calculated using the Treasury Stock Method, which entitled the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financial statements properly reflect the change.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”) which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheets for all the leases with terms greater than 12 months. Based on certain criteria, leases will be classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In November 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date for Topic 842 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 for private companies and emerging growth companies, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU No 2020-05 that further delayed the effective date of Topic 842 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. We will adopt this new standard on January 1, 2022. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” that allows entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at the effective date, as opposed to the earliest period presented under the modified retrospective transition approach and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients primarily focused on leases that commenced before the effective date of Topic 842, including continuing to account for leases that commence before the effective date in accordance with previous guidance, unless the lease is modified. The Company currently expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon its adoption of Topic 842, which will increase the total assets and total liabilities that the Company reports relative to such amounts prior to adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 is not expected to have a material impact on Arcimoto’s Statement of Operations.

NOTE 3: TMW ACQUISITION

 

On January 23, 2021, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tilting Motor Works, Inc. (“TMW”), a Washington corporation (the “Seller”) and its owner. TMW engages in the design, production, sales, and installation of a bolt on kit that converts a two wheeled motorcycle into a tilting three wheeled motorcycle. TMW was acquired to utilize the tilting technology in new three wheeled micro-mobility vehicles.

 

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Company paid cash of $1,754,083 and issued 436,339 shares of Company common stock as consideration for substantially all of the TMW’s assets and certain assumed liabilities. The common shares issued were unregistered and are subject to sales restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company valued the shares issued in the transaction at the average of opening and closing price on the date of acquisition with a 12.5% discount for lack of marketability. The acquisition closed on February 4, 2021 and was recorded as a business combination as the set of assets and activities acquired met the definition of a business.

 

The purchase price allocation is as follows:

 

Cash   $ 1,754,083  
Add: Fair value of shares issued     13,038,355  
Total consideration   $ 14,792,438

The total sales price was increased to $12,750,000. The purchase was contingent upon the Company’s complete and unconditional approval of: (i) the property and its physical condition, zoning and land use restrictions, and all systems, utilities, and access rights pertaining to the property; (ii) the seller’s documents; (iii) securing financing; (iv) a Phase I environmental assessment and all appropriate inquiries investigation so as to protect the Company under CERCLA; and (v) anything else the Company deemed necessary.

Litigation 

 

On March 6, 2020, the Company filed a complaint (“the Complaint”) against Ayro, Inc. (“Ayro”), accusing Ayro of patent infringement in Federal District Court for the Western District of Texas, Waco Division (Case No. 6:20-cv-00176-ADA) (“the Ayro Litigation”). In the Complaint, Arcimoto alleged that Ayro’s 311 two-seater electric vehicles infringe U.S. Patent 8,985,255 (the “255 Patent”). The Complaint asked for monetary damages and enhanced damages due to willful infringement of the 255 Patent by Ayro. On March 27, 2020, Ayro answered the Complaint, denying liability and asserting counterclaims of noninfringement and patent invalidity. During the first quarter of 2021, the parties reached a settlement and submitted a request to the court to dismiss the case.

 

The Company, Mark Frohnmayer and Douglas Campoli have been sued in two putative class actions in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Barnette v. Arcimoto, Inc. et al. (Case No. 21-cv-02143 filed on April 19, 2021) and Gibson v. Arcimoto, Inc. et al. (Case No. 21-cv-02870 filed on May 20, 2021). The putative class actions purported to be on behalf of all those who purchased our common stock between February 14, 2018 and March 22, 2021. The allegations in the actions are based on the research report dated March 23, 2021 produced by Bonitas Research, LLC, a short seller of our common stock. The Barnette and Gibson actions were consolidated as In re Arcimoto, Inc. Securities Litigation (Case No. 21-cv-02143) on July 14, 2021, and a consolidated amended complaint is due on September 20, 2021. No motion to certify a class has been filed at this time. We believe we have substantial defenses to the claims asserted in this lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend this action.

 

The Company is also a nominal defendant in two shareholder derivative lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Liu v. Frohnmayer et al. (Case No. 21-cv-03702 filed on June 30, 2021) and Carranza v. Frohnmayer et al. (Case No. 21-cv-03888 filed on July 9, 2021), and a shareholder derivative lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon, Laguerre v. Frohnmayer et al. (Case No. 21-cv-00982 filed on June 30, 2021). Mark Frohnmayer, Douglas Campoli, Terry Becker, Nancy Calderon, Joshua Scherer, and Jesse Eisler are named as defendants in all three shareholder derivative suits. Jeff Curl is named as a defendant in Laguerre and Liu. The allegations in the shareholder derivative lawsuits largely arise from the Bonitas report referenced above. The Liu and Carranza actions were consolidated on August 4, 2021 as In re Arcimoto, Inc. Derivative Litigation (Lead Case No. 21-cv-03702).

 

Additionally, from time to time, we might become involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations, proceedings, and threats of litigation relating to intellectual property, commercial arrangements and other matters arising in the ordinary course of our business.

 

NOTE 11: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Between July 1 and August 5, 2021, we issued and sold 398,051 shares of common stock in connection with the ATM at an average price per share of $17.41, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $6,740,000, which includes proceeds from subscription receivable of approximately $3,438,000, after subtracting underwriting commissions. These funds will be used for general operating needs.

Overview

 

Arcimoto, Inc. (the “Company”, “We”, or “Our”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007, with the mission to catalyze the shift to a sustainable transportation system. We build light, electric, ultra-efficient vehicles that are incredibly fun to drive for a reason. Put simply, our vision is an untouched planet and more livable cities.

 

Today’s city is dominated by the car. We pave over almost half our urban land for these giant, multi-ton, extractive machines that we almost always drive alone or with just one other person and leave parked and rusting for approximately 95% of their useful lives.

 

At Arcimoto, we believe that if we rightsize, electrify, and better utilize our vehicles, we can reclaim our shared space, help clean our skies, and make cities more livable for us all.

 

We have developed a new, human-scale three-wheel electric vehicle platform, featuring dual-motor front wheel drive, a battery pack sized to meet the range needs of the vast majority of typical trips, and an optimized center of gravity for a nimble, balanced driving experience. On this platform, we currently manufacture a family of products targeting a wide range of everyday uses: the Fun Utility Vehicle, for daily driving, ride share and rental, the Deliverator, for last-mile delivery of essential food and goods, the Rapid Responder for emergency services and security, the Flatbed, for general fleet utility, and the Roadster, a pure fun machine that drives like nothing else on the road.

 

We launched production of the Fun Utility Vehicle in the third quarter of 2019, prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2019, Arcimoto produced 57 vehicles and sold 46. In 2020 Arcimoto produced 117 vehicles and sold 97. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Arcimoto produced 173 vehicles and sold 90 new vehicles and one pre-owned vehicle, a 137% improvement over the 38 vehicles sold to customers in the six months ended June 30, 2020. A portion of our unsold vehicles were placed into service as marketing, demo or show vehicles, and in Arcimoto’s rental operations. Sixty-three vehicles were in finished goods inventory as of June 30, 2021.

 

The Company’s primary focus is on volume production planning in order to push to sustainable profitability. On April 19, 2021, the Company purchased an approximately 220,000 square foot facility to expand production capabilities. The Company has submitted an application for the Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Loan Program to secure the funds necessary to execute our growth strategy.

Platform and Technologies

 

Arcimoto spent its first decade developing and refining eight generations of a new three-wheeled electric vehicle platform: a light-footprint, nimble reverse-trike architecture that features a low center of gravity for stability on the road; dual-motor front-wheel drive for enhanced traction; can be parked three to a space while carrying two large adults comfortably, and is more efficient, by an order of magnitude, than today’s gas-powered cars. The Company has secured 10 utility patents on various constituent technologies and vehicle platform architectures. As announced on June 10, 2020, Arcimoto has teamed with Munro & Associates to evaluate Arcimoto’s manufacturing processes and supply chain management in order to drive down costs and begin high-volume production of Arcimoto ultra-efficient electric vehicles. This project, which is estimated to take two years, progressed significantly in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to the purchase of a new production facility, continued production ramp planning, and product architecture sourcing-selection across all major vehicle subsystems.

 

Products

 

Arcimoto’s vehicle products are based on the Arcimoto Platform. While intended to serve very different market segments, an estimated 90% of the constituent parts are the same between all products currently in production and development.

 

Fun Utility Vehicle® (FUV®

 

Arcimoto’s flagship product is the Fun Utility Vehicle. The FUV delivers a thrilling ride experience, exceptional maneuverability, comfort for two passengers with cargo, highly-efficient parking (three FUVs to a single parking space), and ultra-efficient operation, all at an affordable price. Over time, we anticipate offering the FUV with several option packages to meet the needs of a variety of customers.

 

We led with a consumer product because we are a consumer-first brand. We believe individuals should be able to choose more efficient, more affordable, and lighter-footprint mobility solutions, so that more of us can participate in the transition to a sustainable transportation future.

 

Rapid Responder™

 

The Rapid Responder was announced on February 15, 2019. The pure-electric Rapid Responder is developed on the Arcimoto platform, and designed to perform specialized emergency, security, and law enforcement services at a fraction of the cost and environmental impact of traditional combustion vehicles. The Rapid Responder aims to deliver first responders to incidents more quickly and affordably than traditional emergency response vehicles.

 

Arcimoto is initially targeting the more than 50,000 fire stations across the United States that use traditional fire engines and large automobiles to respond to calls. Arcimoto also plans to market the Rapid Responder as a solution for campus security and law enforcement applications.

 

21

 

 

Deliverator®

 

Development of the Deliverator was officially announced on March 19, 2019 with the reveal of the first Deliverator prototype.

 

The Deliverator is a pure electric, last-mile delivery solution designed to more quickly, efficiently, and affordably get goods where they need to go. We plan for the Deliverator to be customizable to carry a wide array of products, from pizza, groceries, and cold goods to the 65 billion parcels delivered worldwide annually.

 

Cameo ()

 

Arcimoto completed a prototype of the Cameo, an FUV equipped with a rear-facing rear seat and a modified roof built for on-road filming in September 2020. We teased the Cameo prototype in several Arcimoto videos in September 2020 and have used the Cameo to shoot all of our own driving footage since its on-roading. Development of the Cameo is still in the planning stages.

 

The Cameo is aimed at the film industry, as well as the growing influencer and DIY film market.

 

Arcimoto Roadster

 

The Arcimoto Roadster prototype was first introduced in a video released October 30, 2020. Conceived as a pure platform fun machine, the Roadster offers a lower center of gravity, lower overall weight, and potentially improved aerodynamics. We announced the formal development of the Roadster product, in collaboration with industry partners on November 16, 2020. The first production Roadster was unveiled on July 26, 2021.

 

Arcimoto Flatbed

 

The Arcimoto Flatbed prototype was introduced at the FUV & Friends Summer Showcase on July 26, 2021. Similar to the Deliverator, it eschews the rear seat, this time for a pickup-style flatbed instead of an enclosed cargo area. Arcimoto announced a collaboration with Eugene-based SherpTek, and displayed a modular, expandable flatbed that could be used for the Flatbed model.

 

Driverless Arcimoto

 

Our long-term goal is to offer the market one of the lowest cost, most efficient “last mile” human and goods shared transport solutions for the future road. We intend that our platform will provide a ready foundation for remote control and self-driving technology deployment, and have begun to demonstrate that capability.

 

At the FUV & Friends Summer Showcase on July 26, 2021, Arcimoto demonstrated progress on torque vectoring and other drive system software improvements, including “drive-by-wire” functionality, a foundational layer for a true driverless control system.

 

The first step toward that driverless control system was also on display at the Summer Showcase. A technology company, based in South San Francisco, demonstrated the first ever driverless FUV using remote control, a step toward ride-on-demand, where riders will be able to summon a vehicle to their location and then hop in and drive.

 

22

 

 

Sales and Distribution Model

 

Arcimoto’s sales and distribution model is direct. Customers place vehicle orders on our website, and the vehicle product will be delivered directly to the end user via a common carrier or our own delivery fleet. The website ordering and vehicle configuration system is functional, with further development planned to further automate the sales process.

 

On October 26, 2020, we announced a partnership with DHL to provide nationwide home delivery of the FUV. They are currently handling the bulk of our customer deliveries.

 

Rental and Rideshare Model

 

We plan to augment this direct web purchase process with experience rental in key markets. This rental model gives prospective customers a direct experience with the physical product before purchasing. We opened our first Company-owned rental operations in San Diego, California and Eugene, Oregon in the second quarter of 2021. Additional rental vehicles are available at our franchise rental location, Arcimoto Key West in Key West, Florida, and at GoCars in San Francisco, California.

 

We plan to open additional Arcimoto-owned and operated rental locations in favorable markets in the future, while also further developing our model for franchise and partner rental operations, and aggressively pursuing partners for those operations.

 

Additionally, we are developing the technology necessary to enable rideshare on the platform. This technology takes the form of a versatile mobile app, unlocking the ability for Arcimoto or a potential partner to determine what level of human resources and interaction is necessary for a given rental location.

 

Service

 

We are pursuing three different models for service of the FUV:

 

Service-on-demand

 

Our initial model is on-demand and on-site vehicle service by Arcimoto technicians or Arcimoto-authorized technicians. Service-on-demand will likely be the primary model during our West Coast release as the majority of the vehicles will be geographically located relatively near the factory or a mobile technician. We intend for customers to request service either through the Arcimoto mobile app or by calling a 24-hour service number.

 

In-market partnership

 

We are currently reviewing potential service partners located in our key distribution regions. We have contracted with Agero Driver Assistance Services, Inc. to provide our customers with roadside assistance. We are currently reviewing Agero’s network of pre-approved third-party service providers, as well as other third-party service providers, to perform service on Arcimoto vehicles. We will be selecting and certifying providers near our customers based on our planned expansion.

 

23

 

 

Retail facility service

 

We plan to employ Arcimoto service technicians at some of our rental locations, depending on the dealer laws in the state. Customers near those rental locations would be able to deliver their vehicle to that location for service needs.

 

Management Opportunities, Challenges and Risks

 

Demand, Production and Capital

 

Demand for the Retail Series Arcimoto FUV has continued to increase. As of June 30, 2021, we had 5,424 net FUV pre-orders, since inception, placed with small refundable deposits or fleet order commitments, representing an increase of 707, or approximately 15%, from the 4,717 pre-orders as of December 31, 2020.

 

We consider pre-orders to be strong sales leads, and use these leads as one indicator of market demand. Pre-orders are made up of small refundable cash deposits from individual retail customers and distribution agreements or nonbinding letters of intent from commercial customers that may or may not have deposited cash. The distribution of pre-orders as of June 30, 2021, is presented in the table below:

In the third quarter of 2019, we completed vehicle testing. Arcimoto tested to verify robustness of its vehicle design, to demonstrate compliance with all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards required for motorcycles, and to demonstrate proper function of voluntarily-added equipment such as the FUV’s 3+3 seat belts. Following completion of compliance testing, we initiated the sales process with our first customers. As sales are completed, pre-order and reservation fees are applied to the purchase price and balances due are collected on delivery.

 

For portions of all four quarters of 2020, Arcimoto’s production operations were suspended in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company restarted limited production and resumed deliveries to customers in the third quarter of 2020. We have continued to experience supply chain challenges related to extended lead times for delivery of parts and raw materials, and may continue to do so in the foreseeable future.

 

With limited FUV production through 2020 and now extending into 2021, we are focusing on pilot programs for the Deliverator and Rapid Responder, performing value engineering and planning for volume manufacture to achieve sustainable profitability, applying to the Federal Department of Energy’s Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Loan Program (“ATVMLP”) to finance original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) volume production, engaging sales efforts focused on fleet deployments, building and testing our rental operations, and expanding our service network.

 

The average sales price, including custom upgrade options, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $22,202, which is $4,302 or 24% above the base model price of $17,900. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Arcimoto produced 173 vehicles, and sold 90 new vehicles and one pre-owned vehicle. Twenty-seven vehicles have been placed into service in rental operations.

 

We have contracted Munro and Associates, a lean design consulting company, to evaluate Arcimoto’s manufacturing processes and supply chain management in order to drive down costs and begin high-volume production of Arcimoto ultra-efficient electric vehicles. To date, substantial progress has been made in understanding the cost models for future vehicles based on current and anticipated supply chain conditions, ergonomic studies, planning for failure modes and effects analysis (“FMEA”), baseline ride-drive characteristics, mapping out European Union (“EU”) certification, cost reduction for manufacturing, lean manufacturing analysis, vehicle architecture sourcing-selection for all major subsystems and the technology roadmap for future vehicles and marketing roadmap.

 

Arcimoto’s test of the Rapid Responder in a pilot program with the City of Eugene, the Eugene-Springfield Fire Department (“ESFD”) was completed on March 31, 2021, and ESFD has provided us with valuable feedback for future product development and marketing. We are evaluating upfitters and defining the process for installation of non-compliant accessories such as lights and sirens and we released pricing and availability for the Rapid Responder in the first quarter of 2021.

 

We have several ongoing Deliverator pilot programs with individuals, municipalities, and corporate fleets. We have completed the first phase of tool-up for manufacture and production of the Deliverator, and we will continue to build Deliverators in low volume through the remainder of 2021, with the intent to deliver them to new pilot programs.

On September 26, 2020, Arcimoto introduced the beta Configurator, a web tool for selecting vehicle options and visualizing the final configured product. We subsequently opened $2,500 non-refundable reservations for production FUVs through the end of the year to pre-order customers in Washington, California, and Oregon, with a new starting price of $17,900, and many more configurable options than our previous offering. Average sales price as configured for the first 113 reservations was $21,893. While the beta Configurator has been an effective tool for converting early pre-orders to purchased vehicles, we are working on the next iteration in order to improve user interface and experience.

 

On February 4, 2021, the Company closed and completed a Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) for the business of Tilting Motor Works, Inc. (“TMW”), including technology patents for tilting three wheeled vehicles and the TRiO motorcycle accessory product line. The TRiO is a bolt-on front end kit that converts a two wheeled motorcycle to a three wheeled tilting reverse trike. The Company believes the TRiO product line will continue to flourish under Arcimoto, as we are able to bring considerable marketing and manufacturing efforts to bear, and the underlying technology will be beneficial to future Arcimoto products. Authorized dealers/installers of the TRiO products are potential partners for providing product support services to FUV owners in certain areas. Arcimoto delivered two and ten TRiO kits, generating $30,678 and $123,000 in revenue with a 14.8% and 24.0% gross margin, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, and from February 4, 2021 to June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company completed the relocation of TMW to its Eugene, Oregon campus in the second quarter of 2021.

 

Trends in Cash Flow, Capital Expenditures and Operating Expenses

 

In 2019, Arcimoto generated cash flow from retail production vehicle sales for the first time.

 

Our capital expenditures for low-volume production are substantially complete. We are bringing the thermo forming of body panels in-house and ordered approximately $1,741,000 in equipment for this process. Approximately $1,450,000 of this amount were financed at interest rates ranging from 5.56% to 9.0% and terms of 60-72 months. We anticipate a savings of $780 per FUV produced with this automation. We purchased a multi-directional rotary brush machine at a total cost of $142,200 to automate the deburr and finishing of sheet metal. This was financed at an interest rate of 9.86% and a term of 60 months. We purchased an additional CNC mill at a total cost of $173,860 to increase production capacity. This was financed at an interest rate of 4.11% for 60 months. We purchased an additional welding cell at a total cost of $286,674 for welding the two sides of the upper frame together. $250,000 of this was financed at an interest rate of 5.75% for 60 months. We anticipate a savings of $390 per FUV produced with the welding automation. We purchased a wire bonding machine at a cost of $211,524 for next generation battery module production. We anticipate securing low interest debt for these equipment purchases. The Company is preparing an ATVMLP application to finance OEM volume production.

 

Operating expenses increased by approximately 173%, or $8,005,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was mostly due to increased R&D expense associated with developing the 1.X FUV platform that is planned for OEM production volumes and increased personnel costs related to new hires across all departments. Other factors include, but are not limited to an increase in sales and marketing efforts and G&A expense associated with the integration of TMW. The number of employees increased by approximately 92%, from 103 as of June 30, 2020 to 198 employees as of June 30, 2021. The increased staff was needed to build out all parts of the Company for selling and servicing vehicles.

Gain on Forgiveness of PPP Loan

 

On May 5, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan in the amount of approximately $1,069,000, referred to on the balance sheet as Note payable to bank. The loan has an interest rate of 1% and monthly payments of approximately $60,000 for 18 months beginning December 5, 2020. This loan is eligible for the limited loan forgiveness provisions of Section 1102 of the CARES Act, and the SBA Interim Final Rule dated April 2, 2020. On April 27, 2021 all of the outstanding principal and interest of approximately $1,069,000 and $10,000, respectively, were forgiven as of June 30, 2021. There was no forgiveness on the PPP loan recognized as of June 30, 2020.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $100,000, as compared to $663,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in interest expense was due to the payoff of all non-equipment financing in June 2020.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

 

The Company has not achieved positive earnings and operating cash flows to enable the Company to finance its operations internally. Funding for the business to date has come primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities. The Company may require additional funding to continue to operate in the normal course of business. The substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated based on management’s belief that current cash reserves will sustain operations for more than 12 months.

 

Although the Company’s objective is to increase its revenues from the sale of its products to sufficiently generate positive operating and cash flow levels, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in this regard. The Company may need to raise additional capital in order to fund its operations, which if needed, it intends to obtain through debt and/or equity offerings. Funds on hand and any follow-on capital, will be used to invest in our business to expand sales and marketing efforts, including Company-owned and franchise-rental operations and the systems to support them, enhance our current product lines by continuing research and development to enhance and reduce the cost of the FUV and to bring future variants to retail production, continue to build out and optimize our production facility, debt repayment, and fund operations until positive cash flow is achieved. The need for additional capital may be adversely impacted by uncertain market conditions or approval by regulatory bodies.

 

As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $38,473,000 in cash and cash equivalents, representing a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $978,000 from December 31, 2020. Our cash used from operating activities was approximately $14,259,000, which was primarily due to our net loss of approximately $12,989,000. In connection with our ATM, we issued and sold 1,455,130 shares of common stock through June 30, 2021, resulting in proceeds to the Company of approximately $26,400,000, net of offering costs. After June 30, 2021, an additional 398,051 shares were sold for net proceeds to the company of approximately $6,740,000. On April 19, 2021, we disbursed $11,500,000 cash for the purchase of the buildings on Chambers Ave. We anticipate that our current sources of liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents, together with our current projections of cash flow from operating activities, will provide us with more than 12 months of liquidity. The amount and timing of funds that we may raise is undetermined and could vary based on a number of factors, including our ongoing liquidity needs, our current capitalization, as well as access to current and future sources of liquidity. If circumstances arise where we have to obtain additional funds for our business needs, we will consider obtaining such funds, among other things, through the capital markets and/or refinancing our long-lived assets.

 

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

 

Our cash flows from operating activities are significantly affected by our cash outflows to support the growth of our business in areas such as R&D, sales and marketing and G&A expenses. Our operating cash flows are also affected by our working capital needs to support personnel related expenditures, accounts payable, inventory purchases and other current assets and liabilities.
