CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The information contained in this Report includes some statements that are not purely historical and that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and as such, may involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, expectations of the business environment in which we operate, perceived opportunities in the market and statements regarding our mission and vision. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words “anticipates, believes, continue, could, estimates, expects, intends, may, might, plans, possible, potential, predicts, projects, seeks, should, will, would” and similar expressions, or the negatives of such terms, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

 

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and forward-looking statements are expressed in good faith based on management’s views and assumptions as of the time the statements are made, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs or projections will result or be achieved or accomplished.

 

In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the following are important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: technological advances, impact of competition, dependence on key personnel and the need to attract new management, effectiveness of cost and marketing efforts, acceptances of products, ability to expand markets and the availability of capital or other funding on terms satisfactory to us. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.

 

For a discussion of the risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that could affect our future events, developments or results, you should carefully review the information set forth under “Item 1. Description of Business” below. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events, developments or results described by our forward-looking statements herein could turn to be materially different from those we discuss or imply.

PART I

 

Item 1. Description of Business.

 

History and Development of the Company

 

2050 Motors, Inc. has an agreement, subject to minimum sales requirements, to import, market and sell in the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Territories and Peru, the “e-Go” lightweight carbon fiber all-electric vehicle (“EV”) design and electric light truck to be manufactured by Jiangsu Aoxin New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd. (“Aoxin Automobile”) located in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). Aoxin Automobile was a wholly owned subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor Corporation (“Dongfeng Motor”), which is one of the largest automobile manufacturers in China, producing over 3.76 million cars and trucks in 2012. Aoxin Automobile was funded by Dongfeng Motor to develop and manufacture a lightweight, efficient, carbon fiber e-Go EV electric car (“e-Go”). Dongfeng Motor, over a five-year period, invested a substantial amount of money to develop, with the support of Italian engineers, a new carbon fiber technology to produce auto parts at a significantly reduced cost. They also developed a lightweight aluminum racing frame for the e-Go.

 

In 2014, Yancheng Municipal State-Owned Asset Investment Group, Co. Ltd. (“YMSIG”), an investment and property development company founded by the Yancheng Municipal Government, purchased Aoxin Automobile from Dongfeng Motor, Co. Ltd. YMSIG made major investments in Aoxin, which funded on a fast track schedule the completion of the e-Go automobile manufacturing facility that culminated in a grand opening ceremony on January 20, 2015.

 

The e-Go is a five-passenger sedan that weighs only 1,450 pounds with its battery pack included. It was designed to be the first vehicle of its advanced type to be sold in the price range of less than $35,000. It will have a unique lightweight carbon fiber body built on an aluminum frame. It will be the only production line EV with a carbon fiber body manufactured by a new process that uses robotics to produce parts, which significantly reduces the production time and cost of carbon fiber components. The carbon fiber composite material is five times stronger than steel and one third the weight.

 

In accordance with the agreement signed with Aoxin Automobile, which was previously exclusive, in order to maintain rights for the United States, the Company is required to purchase and sell a certain number of e-Go vehicles per year for a certain period of time starting from the completion of the requirements established by the United States Department of Transportation’s (“US DOT”) protocols for the e-Go. The required number of vehicles that the company needs to sell per year are as follows: Year 1 - 2,000 vehicles; Year 2 - 6,000 vehicles; Year 3 - 12,000 vehicles; Year 4 - 24,000 vehicles and Year 5 - 48,000 vehicles.

 

The contract between 2050 Motors and Aoxin Automobile requires that 2050 Motors completes crash testing according to US DOT safety standards with a certified full-scale crash testing facility.

 

Two demonstration vehicles were received from Aoxin in the fourth quarter of 2015. One of the demonstration vehicles was showcased to the American public at the William Carr Gallery in Las Vegas, Nevada. This vehicle remained for public viewing at the gallery until April 30, 2016. 2050 Motors intends to eventually crash test eight (8) e-Go vehicles at a certified testing Facility. However, before this is done, design of the airbags must also be completed by Aoxin Automobile. Aoxin is currently designing an airbag system for the e-Go; however, 2050 Motors cannot predict at this time whether the airbag system will suffice for the U.S. market and/or may require additional airbags for successful crash testing. In addition, Aoxin Automobile has stated that the e-Go will be equipped with US DOT approved parts and equipment including windshields, tires, braking systems, and related. 2050 Motors does not know at the present time if all the equipment on the e-Go will be US DOT compliant, and 2050 Motors may or may not have to re-equip the parts, if any, either in China or the United States.

 

During the year 2013, both engineers in the United States and in China collaborated on many aspects of the e-Go to meet or surpass the US DOT’s standards. These modifications have been incorporated into the e-Go. One of these modifications was to specifically address a new crash test which is not yet required in the United States. This test, created by the leading insurance industry group IIHS, is called the “overlap test” which insurance companies are trying to adopt into the standard automobile crash test program. The crash test consists of a vehicle to be submitted under new safety standards for front-end collisions in which 25% of the front end, on the driver’s side, strikes a 5-foot-tall barrier at 40 mph. The overlap test has proven to be very difficult for present automobiles on the road to pass. In fact, thirteen automobiles produced by the top end manufacturers such as Mercedes, Audi and other market leaders have either failed or done very poorly in this crash test sequence.

2050 Motors intends to import components completely fabricated and manufactured in China from Aoxin Automobile and will set up an assembly plant to utilize American labor and OEM’s in the facility. All the e-Go’s parts and equipment must be DOT approved. Aoxin Automobile has made every effort to build the e-Go according to American standards; however, there is no certainty that all the parts will be US DOT approved. 2050 Motors may elect to secure replacement parts here in the United States or in China for manufacturing or installation of components either in the United States or in China, if required.

 

In October 2017, a delegation from 2050 Motors went to visit Aoxin Automobile to lay out the plans for assembly of the e-Go in the United States. 2050 decided to assemble the vehicles in the United States because of a delay by Aoxin in obtaining their license to export fully assembled electric vehicles to 2050 Motors in the United States according to our contract arrangements. While 2050 Motors was planning this relatively complex assembly plant, the United States and China entered a tariff battle which would require products from China to be taxed at a 25% rate. This development has put 2050 Motors plans on hold as it tries to evaluate how these new policies impact the end-price for the vehicles in the United States.

 

2050 Motors intends to initially sell the e-Go to a network of customers primarily in the Las Vegas area. 2050 Motors plans to establish a service and parts center which would be separate from the showroom. The showroom facility will be at an area with a high volume of people in Las Vegas, where visitors to the city can directly view the e-Go. 2050 Motors may also elect to sell the e-Go at selected distributors in the Las Vegas Area, which have already provided letters of interest. 2050 Motors’ initial plan is to sell the vehicles in large cities in the Southwest United States such as Las Vegas which has a metropolitan population of approximately 1.9 million people.

 

2050 Motors is a development stage company with no operating history and may never be able to carry out its business plan or achieve any revenues or profitability. 2050 Motors was established in October 2012 and has not generated any revenues, nor has the Company realized any profit from its operations to date and there is little likelihood that we will generate any revenues or realize any profits in the long term. Any profitability in the future from 2050’s business will be dependent upon the successful marketing and sales of the e-Go. Accordingly, 2050 Motors’ prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in establishing a new business, especially one in the automobile industry, and therefore it is a highly speculative venture involving significant financial risk.

 

We are completely dependent on Aoxin Automobile to supply us with the e-Go and other trucks and automobiles and parts and components thereto. The inability of Aoxin Automobile to continue to deliver, or their refusal to deliver such vehicles and parts at prices and volumes acceptable to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and operating results. Changes in business conditions, global financial instability, trade wars, governmental changes, and other factors beyond our control or which we do not presently anticipate, could also affect Aoxin Automobile’s ability to deliver vehicles and/or parts on a timely basis and cause material adverse consequences to 2050 Motors.

 

Subsequent to year-end 2018, the Company announced an expanded plan to incubate businesses in the electric vehicle, communications, power and lighting, and Internet markets. Please see subsequent events for additional information on developments announced after December31, 2018.

Market Information

 

Market Information

 

There has only been limited trading for the Company’s Common Stock over the past ten years. There is no assurance that an active trading market will ever develop or, if such a market does develop, that it will continue. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for purposes relevant to the Company, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or a security to purchase equity with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading, and about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Holders

 

There are approximately 265 holders of the Company’s Common Stock. This figure does not include holders of shares registered in “street name” or persons, partnerships, associates, corporations or other entities identified in security position listings maintained by depositories.

 

Dividends

 

We have not declared any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception and do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain future earnings, if any, for use in our business. Any decisions as to future payments of dividends will depend on our earnings and financial position and such other facts, as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Securities Authorized under Equity Compensation Plans

 

We do not have any equity compensation plans.

 

Shares Available for Future Sale

 

Approximately 23% of all outstanding shares of our common stock are “restricted securities,” as that term is defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, because they were issued in a private transaction not involving a public offering. Accordingly, none of the outstanding shares of our common stock may be resold, transferred, pledged as collateral or otherwise disposed of unless such transaction is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available. In connection with any transfer of shares of our common stock other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the Company may require the holder to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred shares under the Securities Act.

 

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by companies that are, or previously were, shell companies, like us, unless the following conditions are met:

 

the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
   
the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
   
the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K; and
   
at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current comprehensive disclosure with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

In view of the above, shareholders may utilize Rule 144 for the sale of their 2050 Motors shares at any time, assuming all the other requirements set forth above are met.

 

Repurchases of Equity Securities

 

None

 

Our common stock is approved for quotation on the OTC Markets’ pink sheet marketplace under the symbol “ETFM”. The pink sheet marketplace is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities. The pink sheet 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.

 

On July 8, 2019, the closing price of our common stock reported on the pink sheet marketplace was $0.0006 per share. The following table sets forth, for each of the quarterly periods indicated, the high and low sales prices of our common stock, as reported on the OTC Pink Sheets market.

Penny Stock Considerations

 

The trading of our common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus are subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.

 

Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:

 

  Deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt;
   
  Disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities;
   
  Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and
   
  Make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account.

 

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to buy or sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling stockholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our common stock in the marketplace. In addition, the liquidity for our common stock may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our common stock. Our shares are likely to be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future.

 

Reports to Stockholders

 

We are currently subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and will continue to file periodic reports, and other information with the SEC. We intend to file annual reports for our stockholders containing audited financial statements.

Transfer Agent

 

Signature Stock Transfer, Inc., located at 2632 Coachlight Court, Plano, Texas 75093 is the registrar and transfer agent for our common stock.

 

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

On February 20, 2018, the Company issued three (3) million shares of Series A Preferred stock to Michael Hu, the prior President and Director of the Company, for services rendered. The preferred stock is convertible into common stock on a one for one share basis. In addition, each share of preferred stock has 50 votes per share.

 

All the above issuances by us of our unregistered securities were made in reliance upon Regulation D and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). No commissions were paid relating to the issuance of the securities. The entities or individuals listed above that purchased the unregistered securities were known to us and our management, through pre-existing business relationships. They were provided access to all material information, all information necessary to verify such information, and our management in connection with the purchases. The purchaser of the unregistered securities acquired such securities for investment and not with a view toward distribution, acknowledging such intent to us. All certificates or agreements representing such securities that were issued contained restrictive legends, prohibiting further transfer of the certificates or agreements representing such securities, without such securities either being first registered or otherwise exempt from registration in any further resale or disposition.

 

Between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018, the Company issued to third-party lenders a total of 391,238,673 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of $326,982 debt and accrued interest owed by the Company to such lenders. In accordance with the “tacking” provisions under the rules and regulations of the 1933 Act, the shares were held over one year and the request for conversions were accompanied by opinions of counsel and therefore all the shares were issued without restrictions on sales or transfers.

 

Between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018, the Company issued to related party lenders a total of 174,757,816 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of $200,352 debt and accrued interest owed by the Company to such lenders. The Company has been unable to confirm the providence of these shares and the related party loans and has placed a stop action order at its transfer agent blocking sale or transfer of these shares pending proof of the legitimacy of these loans and their Board approved, Sarbanes-Oxley compliant conversions into common stock. Current management is evaluating its legal options for recovery of these shares from these previously related parties.

Plan of Operation

 

Prior to the completion of the acquisition of 2050 Motors on May 2, 2014, the Company was a public company with nominal assets whose sole business was to identify, evaluate, and investigate various companies to acquire or with which to merge. Upon consummation of the transaction with 2050 Motors, the Company’s business became the business of 2050 Motors, which was at the time the Company’s sole operating subsidiary.

 

The 2050 Motors acquisition was completed pursuant to the terms of a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) entered into on February 5, 2014, by and between the Company, 2050 Motors and certain shareholders of 2050 Motors. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of 2050 Motors in exchange for 24,994,670 post-split shares of the Company’s common stock (aggregating approximately 82% of its then issued and outstanding common stock).

 

2050 Motors’ principal activity is the importation and the marketing and selling of electric automobiles. 2050 Motors has an agreement, subject to minimum sales requirements, to import, market and sell in the United States, Puerto Rico, the United States Territories and Peru, the e-Go lightweight carbon fiber all-electric vehicle, manufactured by Jiangsu Aoxin New Energy Automobile Co., LTD (“Aoxin Automobile”) located in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”). Aoxin Automobile is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dongfeng Motors Corporation (“Dongfeng Motor”) which is one of the automobile manufacturers in China, producing over 3.76 million cars and trucks in 2012. Aoxin Automobile was funded by Dongfeng Motors to develop and manufacture a lightweight, efficient, carbon fiber e-Go electric car.

 

2050 Motors intends to import vehicles completely fabricated and assembled in China from Aoxin Automobile. 2050 Motors will market the e-Go vehicles in designated markets and is not expected to need any raw materials, components or equipment, except spare parts which will be supplied by Aoxin Automobile. However, the e-Go and all of its parts and equipment must be US DOT approved. After the demonstration vehicles are delivered to the United States, some of the existing parts of the e-Go may or may not meet US DOT specifications. Aoxin Automobile has made every effort to build the e-Go according to American standards. However, there is no certainty that all the parts will be US DOT approved. 2050 Motors may elect to secure replacement parts here in the United States or in China for installation either in the United States or in China, if required.

 

2050 Motors intends to initially sell the e-Go to a network of customers primarily in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. 2050 Motors plans to establish a service and parts center, which would be separate from the showroom. The Showroom facility will be at an area with high volume of people in Las Vegas, where visitors to the city can directly view the e-Go. 2050 Motors may also elect to sell the e-Go at selected distributors in the Las Vegas Area, which have provided letters of interest to sell the vehicles. 2050 Motors’ initial plan is to sell the vehicle primarily in the Las Vegas vicinity, consisting of an area within a radius of 100 miles with a population of roughly 1.9 million.

 

2050 Motors is a development stage company with no operating history and may never be able to carry out its business plan or achieve any revenues or profitability. The Company was established in October 2012 and has not generated any revenues. 2050 Motors has not realized a profit from its operations to date, and there is little likelihood that we will generate any revenues or realize any profits in the short term. Any profitability in the future from its business will be dependent upon the successful marketing and sales of the e-Go. 2050 Motors may not be able to successfully carry out its business plan. There can be no assurance that it will ever achieve any revenues or profitability. Accordingly, its prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in establishing a new business, especially one in the automobile industry, which is highly competitive and capital intensive and therefore it is a highly speculative venture involving significant financial risk.

 

Research by Aoxin Automobile over the past five years developed its advanced all-electric vehicle. The e-Go is a five-passenger sedan which weighs only 1,450 pounds with its battery pack included. It will be the first vehicle of this advanced type to be sold in the price range of less than $35,000. The body components are built out of carbon fiber which is five times stronger than steel and one third its weight constructed over a strong ultralight aluminum frame chassis and race car suspension. This ensures that the vehicle will be one of the safest and strongest ever built for the consumer market. It will also be the most efficient mass-produced vehicle ever built, capable of achieving 200+ miles to the gallon energy equivalent.

Costs and Resources

 

The Company is currently pursuing additional funding sources that would enable it to maintain its current and planned operations through the next 12 months. The Company anticipates that it will need to raise substantial additional capital in order to sustain and grow its operations over the next few years.

 

To the extent that the Company’s capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, the Company will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and the Company does not anticipate that existing lenders or shareholders will provide any portion of the Company’s future financing requirements. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize which would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

 

Results of Operation for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

 

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no operating revenues. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company incurred operating expenses of $291,641 consisting primarily of consulting fees, travel expenses and general and administrative costs. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred operating expenses of $298,974. These operating expenses combined with a lack of operating revenues resulted in net losses of ($1,901,443) and ($1,250,333) for the periods ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of ($1,848,975) compared to a stockholders’ deficit of ($1,350,452) as of December 31, 2017. The increased stockholders’ deficit was due to the net losses in 2018 primarily due to the issuance of common stock for reduction of debt, finance fees, and non-cash charges for changes in derivative valuations associated with the embedded conversion features of convertible debentures.

 

Equity and Capital Resources

 

We have incurred losses since inception of our business and, as of December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of ($5,960,691). As of December 31, 2018, we had cash of $1 and negative working capital of ($1,848,975).

 

To date, we have funded our operations through short-term debt and equity financing. During the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company received $161,700 of borrowed funds, comprised of $0 from related parties and $161,700 from non-related parties. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued the following common stock: no shares for cash proceeds, 565,103,632 shares for reduction and settlement of third-party debt and related party loans, 6,000,000 shares issued for common stock issuable from 2017, and 5,000,000 shares for services.

 

We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operational expenses and the development of our automobile business as well as other planned ventures (see subsequent events). However, we do not expect to start generating revenues from our operations for the foreseeable future. Consequently, we are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which would have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary amounts of additional capital or that our estimates of our capital requirements will prove to be accurate. As of the date of this Report we did not have any commitments from any source to provide such additional capital. Even if we are able to secure outside financing, it may not be available in the amounts or the times when we require. Furthermore, such financing would likely take the form of bank loans, private placement of debt or equity securities or some combination of these. The issuance of additional equity securities would dilute the stock ownership of current investors while incurring loans, leases or debt would increase our capital requirements and possible loss of valuable assets if such obligations were not repaid in accordance with their terms.

Delinquent Loans

 

The Company is delinquent in its payments on loans owing to seven different lenders in the aggregate amount of $285,768 excluding potential penalties. The Company is in discussions with such lenders to extend the maturity dates or to convert all or part into the company’s common stock. There is no assurance that these discussions will result in amicable settlements. Any legal action by any one of the lenders could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to continue operations.

 

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Since our inception through December 31, 2018, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We have adopted all applicable recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements did not have a material effect on our operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and

Board of Directors of 2050 Motors, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of 2050 Motors, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, 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, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis of 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 audit. 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 U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 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 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 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 provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s cumulative net losses, recurring operating losses and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. Management’s plans are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of 2050 Motors, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of 2050 Motors, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017, 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, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter – Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared to assume the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $4,059,248 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2050 MOTORS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION

 

2050 Motors, Inc. (“the Company”) is the successor to an entity incorporated on April 22, 1986 in the state of California. 2050 Motors, Inc., the Company’s sole operating subsidiary, was incorporated on October 9, 2012 in the state of Nevada to import, market, and sell electric cars manufactured in China. On May 2, 2014, that entity sold its business, operations and assets to the Company, whose sole business at the time was to identify, evaluate, and investigate various companies to acquire or with which to merge. Upon consummation of the acquisition of 2050 Motors, Inc., the Company’s sole business became the business of the Company, and the public Company renamed itself “2050 Motors, Inc.” Our principal business objective is to achieve long-term growth through 2050 Motors, Inc. and other investments (see subsequent events).

 

On October 25, 2012, 2050 Motors, Inc. entered into an agreement with Jiangsu Aoxin New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd., (“Aoxin”), located in Jiangsu, China, for the distribution in the United States of a new electric automobile, known as the “e-Go”. This Agreement was amended in 2017 to exclude certain markets in Central America and South America.

 

Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include accounts payable, the recoverability of long-term assets, and the valuation of derivative liabilities.

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, 2050 Motors, Inc. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Cash

 

Cash consists of deposits in one large national bank. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, the Company had $1 and $499 in cash in the United States. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.

 

Property, Plant & Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset; leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of estimated useful life of the asset or over the lease term. The estimated useful lives of our property and equipment are generally as follows: tools and equipment, five years; vehicles and parts, three years; leasehold improvements, lesser of lease term or life of related asset; and furniture and fixtures, seven years.

 

F- 8
 

 

As of December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, Property, Plant and Equipment consisted of the following:

 

    2018     2017  
Furniture and furnishings   $ 14,303     $ 14,303  
Leasehold improvements     18,104       18,104  
Vehicle and parts     76,045       76,045  
Tools and equipment     22,494       22,494  
Total     131,026       131,026  
Less: Accumulated depreciation     (131,026 )     (99,350 )
Property, plant and equipment, net   $ -     $ 31,676  

 

Depreciation expense was $31,676 and $33,274 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash accounts payable, accrued liabilities, short-term debt and derivative liability, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. We adopted ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,”, which requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 input to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815.

 

We have recorded the conversion option on notes as a derivative liability as a result of the variable conversion price, which in accordance with U.S. GAAP, prevents them from being considered as indexed to our stock and qualified for an exception to derivative accounting.

 

We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets at fair value. We record changes in the fair value of the derivatives in the accompanying statement of operations.

 

F- 9
 

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows as of December 31, 2018:

 

    Total     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Liabilities                                    
Derivative liability   $ 876,058            -       -       876,058  
Total liabilities measured at fair value   $ 876,058       -       -       876,058  

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows as of December 31, 2017:

 

    Total     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Liabilities                                
Derivative liability   $ 1,030,132            -            -       1,030,132  
Total liabilities measured at fair value   $ 1,030,132     $ -     $ -     $ 1,030,132  

 

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

 

Balance as of December 31, 2016     270,075  
Fair value of derivative liabilities issued     717,999  
Gain on change in derivative liabilities     42,058  
Balance as of December 31, 2017   $ 1,030,132  
Fair value of derivative liabilities issued     400,078  
Loss on conversions     (710,076 )
Gain on change in derivative liabilities     155,924  
Balance as of December 31, 2018   $ 876,058  

 

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

 

Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed similar to basic net income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all the potential common shares, warrants and stock options had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted EPS assumes that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for the outstanding options and the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible preferred shares. Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Under the if-converted method, convertible outstanding instruments are assumed to be converted into common stock at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later). During the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company incurred losses. Therefore, the effect of any common stock equivalents is anti- dilutive during those periods.

 

The following table sets for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

 

    2018     2017  
Basic and diluted                
Net loss   $ (1,931,443 )   $ (1,250,333 )
                 
Weighted average number of shares in computing basic and diluted net loss                
                 
Basic     233,348,503       39,431,012  
Diluted     233,348,503       39,431,012

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists primarily of inventory costs, as well as warehousing costs (including the cost of warehouse labor), shipping, importation duties and charges, third party royalties, and product sampling.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising and marketing are expensed when incurred and included in selling general and administrative expenses. Advertising and marketing expense amounted to $0 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively

 

Operating Overhead Expense

 

Operating overhead expense consists primarily of payroll and benefit related costs, rent, depreciation and amortization, professional services, and meetings and travel.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company utilizes FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

ASC 740 provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. When tax returns are filed, it is likely that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income.

 

F- 11
 

 

At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had not taken any significant uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for the period ended December 31, 2018 and prior years or in computing its tax provisions for any years. Prior management considered its tax positions and believed that all of the positions taken by the Company in its Federal and State tax returns were more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company is subject to examination by U.S. Federal and State tax authorities from inception to present, generally for three years after they are filed. New management, which took control of the Company on March 5, 2019, is currently evaluating prior management’s decision to not file federal tax returns and plans on filing past returns, and related 10-99 filings for compensation paid to prior management, employees, consultants, contractors and affiliates. The Company does not believe it has a material tax liability due to its operating losses in these periods.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Cash is mainly maintained by one highly qualified institution in the United States. At various times, such amounts are in excess of federally insured limits. Management does not believe that the Company is subject to any unusual financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Company has not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company is subject to risks from, among other things, competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history and the volatility of public markets.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our financial position and statement of operations.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) “ASU 2014-09”. ASU 2014-09 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2016-10 and 2016-12. As amended, Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments create a new Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers . In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, the amendments to ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The new revenue standards are not expected to have a material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized in our financial statements.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or cash flow.

 

Note 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company reported an accumulated deficit of ($5,960,691) as of December 31, 2018. The Company also incurred net losses of ($1,901,443) and ($1,250,333) for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively and had negative working capital for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. To date, these losses and deficiencies have been financed principally through the issuance of common stock and loans from third parties.

 

F- 12
 

 

In view of the matters described, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern without a significant infusion of capital. We anticipate that we will have to raise additional capital to fund operations over the next 12 months. To the extent that we are required to raise additional funds to acquire properties, and to cover costs of operations, we intend to do so through additional offerings of debt or equity securities. There are no commitments or arrangements for other offerings in place, no guaranties that any such financings would be forthcoming, or as to the terms of any such financings. Any future financing may involve substantial dilution to existing investors.

 

Note 4 – VEHICLE DEPOSITS

 

Vehicle deposit of $0 as of December 31, 2018 and $24,405, as of December 31, 2017, represented one prototype test model for delivery into the United States when the specifications are completed for an advanced crash test known in the Automobile Safety Industry as the “overlap crash test”. The estimated date set for this test was mid-2018. The test never occurred, the prototype was never delivered, and we wrote-off the Vehicle deposit of $24,405 during the fourth quarter of 2018.

 

Note 5 – LICENSE AGREEMENT

 

In 2012 and 2013, the Company made a total payment of $50,000 and signed an exclusive license agreement with Aoxin to import, assemble and manufacture the e-Go. The cost of this license agreement was recognized as a long-term asset and was evaluated, by management, for impairment losses at each reporting period. The Company wrote-off the value of this license agreement during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 due to Aoxin’s inability to produce the e-Go and ship vehicles and/or auto parts to the United States.

 

Note 6 – ACCOUNTS PAYABLE DUE TO RELATED PARTIES

 

A related party of the Company paid $7,750 cash on behalf of the Company during the second quarter of 2016. The cash advance was non-interest bearing and was due on August 1, 2016. The Company defaulted on the payment and the payable accrued penalties on it. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 140,808 shares of common stock, having a fair market value of the shares of $8,589, for payment of the principal and penalties.

 

Note 7 – LOANS PAYABLE DUE TO RELATED PARTIES

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company entered into two loans for a total amount of $100,000 due to a shareholder whose control party, William Fowler, became our CEO and a Director during 2018. The loans charged 12% interest and matured on February 28, 2015 and March 30, 2015, respectively. Subsequently, the loans were combined, and the maturity date was extended to April 1, 2018. The outstanding balance of the loans as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $0 and $71,400, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $8,568 of interest expense for these loans. The balance of the loans, which included penalty interest, was paid in cash and/or converted into 53,347,701 common shares during the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018. Current management has been unable to confirm the details of these loans and accordingly has frozen the shares taken for conversion of the loans during the fourth quarter of 2018.

 

On July 1, 2017, the Company entered into an unsecured loan payable agreement with a related party for $14,100, due on September 15, 2017. The Company granted the related party an option to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.015 per share. The Company valued the options using the Black Scholes options pricing model. The fair market value of the options was $26,746. The value was restricted to the face value of the note and hence, $14,100 was recorded as a debt discount which was amortized over the term of the loan. The Company also agreed to pay $1,500 as an interest on the loan. On September 27, 2017, the Company entered into a note amendment, whereby, the term of the note was extended until November 1, 2017, in exchange for an additional $1,500 finance fee and $1,500 late fee. The Company recorded the same as interest expense in the accompanying financials. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company amortized the debt discount of $14,100. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded $1,500 of interest expense for amortization of and another $1,500 of interest expense for the excess derivative. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $14,259 of interest expense. As of December 31, 2017, the loan was in default and the outstanding balance of the loan, as of December 31, 2017 was $17,100. The Company accrued a penalty of $1,750 plus $100 per day of default, aggregating to $7,750 in the accompanying financial statements.

 

F- 13
 

 

On September 27, 2017, the Company entered into another unsecured loan payable agreement with the same related party for $17,500, due on November 1, 2017. The lender charged $1,750 as funding fee and $1,650 as processing fee for the loan, which were recorded as debt discount, with net loan proceeds of $14,100. The Company also granted the related party an option to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.015 per share. The Company valued the options using the Black Scholes options pricing model. The fair market value of the options was $22,945. The value was restricted to the net proceeds of the note and hence, $14,100 was recorded as a debt discount which is being amortized over the term of the loan. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company amortized the debt discount of $14,100 and the finance fee of $3,400. As of December 31, 2017, the loan was in default and the outstanding balance of the loan was $17,500. The Company accrued a penalty of $1,750 plus $100 per day of default, aggregating to $7,750 in the accompanying financial statements. During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018, the balance of this loan and associated interest and penalties was converted into 84,770,115 shares of common stock, eliminating the loan and accrued interest from the Company’s balance sheet.

 

Current management has been unable to confirm the details of these last two loans and accordingly has issued a stop action notice to the Company’s transfer agent freezing sales and transfers of the shares taken for conversion of the loans during the fourth quarter of 2018.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the options using the Black – Scholes model. The variables used for the Black –Scholes model are as listed below:

 

Volatility: 253% - 286%
   
Risk free rate of return: 1.24% - 1.53%
   
Expected term: 1 -3 years

 

The Company received an unsecured $10,000 loan during the third quarter of 2016 from a related party. The loan paid 12% interest and on March 16, 2017, the original maturity date, an extension was granted to April 1, 2018. The outstanding balance on the loan as of December 31, 2017 was $10,000. The Company accrued interest of $1,201 and $1,201 on the loan during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

NOTE 8 - CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLES

 

The Company had several convertible note payables with unrelated third parties with stated interest rates ranging between 10% and 12% and 22% default interest not including penalties. These notes have a conversion feature such that the Company could not ensure it would have adequate authorized shares to meet all possible conversion demands; accordingly, the conversion option has been treated as a derivative liability in the accompanying interim financial statements. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had the following third-party convertible notes outstanding:

 

    Lender  

Origination

  Maturity   Amount     Interest

Net               $ 250,019          

 

*Note is currently in default.

 

Note #1, issued on January 6, 2017, is in default and under the terms of the convertible promissory note, the Company is liable to pay 150% of the then outstanding principal and interest plus additional penalties for certain covenants that are breached. In addition to the note balance of $71,533 as of December 31, 2018, there are penalties totaling $616,199 relating to the default of this note which are included in Accrued expenses. Management believes liquidated damages penalties of $2,000 per day are not enforceable or collectible as the lender has recovered its principal and default interest through conversions of the loans into common stock. The matter is currently being reviewed by counsel.

 

During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded conversion of $292,445 of third-party notes payable and interest into 373,328,673 shares of common stock. The Company recorded a loss on conversion of debt of $149,980 during this period.

 

The derivative liability for all the remaining convertible notes was recalculated on December 31, 2018 to be $876,058 and the loss on change in derivative liability of $110,699 for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018, was recorded on the accompanying financial statements.

 

The variables used for the Binomial model are as listed below:

 

  December 31, 2017   December 31, 2018
Volatility: 253% - 286%   Volatility: 191% - 301%
       
Risk free rate of return: 1.28%- 1.76%   Risk free rate of return: 1.93% - 1.99%
       
Expected term: 1-11 months   Expected term: 1-10 months

 

The Company amortized a debt discount of $139,885 and $302,567 respectively, during the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Company amortized finance fees of $18,750 and $58,239, respectively, during the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Interest expense accrued on non-related convertible notes was $49,740 and $26,513 for the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

Note 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Effective March 1, 2014, the Company signed a lease for four thousand square feet of industrial space in North Las Vegas. The term of the lease was for three years and cost $2,200 per month. The lease expired on April 30, 2017 and the Company went to a month to month basis. The lease was terminated as of June 30, 2018.

 

F- 15
 

 

Effective September 16, 2015, the Company renewed its residential lease agreement in California for its traveling consultants. Effective September 2015, the Company extended the lease agreement for one more year with a new monthly amount of $2,300.

According to the license agreement signed between the Company and Aoxin, in order to maintain rights for the United States, the Company is required to purchase and sell certain amount of e-Go vehicles per year for a certain period of time starting from the completion of the requirements established by the United States Department of Transportation’s protocols for the e-Go model. The table below demonstrates the required number of vehicles that the company needs to sell per year.

 

First year     2,000  
Second year     6,000  
Third year     12,000  
Fourth year     24,000  
Fifth year     48,000  
      92,000  

 

As part of the license agreement, the Company was committed to pay expenses related to any required airbag testing procedures. The cost of these airbags could have been as little as $500,000 or as much as $2 million. Based on its assessment of its relationship with Aoxin Motors and difficult industry conditions and a potential trade war between China and the United States, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company wrote-off its $50,000 license with Aoxin Motors. Further, due to failure to deliver by Aoxin Motors, during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2018, the Company wrote-off its Vehicle deposit of $24,415 with Aoxin Motors.

 

The Company may from time to time, become a party to various legal proceedings, arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company investigates these claims as they arise. Management does not believe, based on current knowledge, that there were any such claims outstanding as of December 31, 2018.

 

Note 10 – REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT- RELATED PARTY

 

On February 12, 2016, the Company signed a twelve months revolving line of credit agreement with a related party. The line amount was $100,000 and carried interest at 12% per annum. In January 2017, the Company signed an amendment to extend the due date of the loan to June 30, 2018 for a conversion option for the restricted common stock of the Company. The note carried interest at the rate of 12% per annum and was convertible at any time starting from January 18, 2017 and ending on the later of the maturity date or the date of payment. The note was convertible at 50% of the Average Market Price for the 15 previous trading days before the conversion notice date. The derivative liability on the note was calculated, using the Binomial model, to be $227,760, of which $101,400 was recorded as a debt discount and the balance $126,360 was recorded as an interest expense, at inception. During the year ended December 31,2018, the balance on the revolving line of credit and related interest were converted to 53,347,701 shares of common stock.

 

The derivative liability was recalculated on December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 as $0 and $177,707, respectively, on the balance of the related party loan and the difference in the value recorded as a change in derivative liability in the income statement. As of December 31, 2018, the balance outstanding on the related party loans was $0. The loan was due on June 30, 2018 and subsequently converted to 53,347,701 common shares.

 

Current management has been unable to confirm the details of these loans and accordingly has frozen the shares taken for conversion of the loans during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Note 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company did not file its federal tax returns for fiscal years from 2012 through 2018. Management at year-end 2018 believed that it should not have any material impact on the Company’s financials because the Company did not have any tax liabilities due to net loss incurred during these years.

 

Based on the available information and other factors, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, management has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $6,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively.

 

Deferred tax assets consist of the following components:

 

    2018     2017  
             
Net loss carryforward   $ 1,252,000     $ 1,100,000  
Valuation allowance     (1,252,000 )     (1,100,000 )

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with an objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls are also designed with an objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer, in order to allow timely consideration regarding required disclosures.

 

The evaluation of our disclosure controls by our principal executive officer included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, the operation of the controls, and the effect of the controls on the information presented in this Annual Report. Our management, including our chief executive officer, does not expect that disclosure controls can or will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud, if any. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures to future periods are subject to the risk that the disclosure controls and procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that there were weaknesses in our internal controls over Financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 and they were therefore not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. The weaknesses in our controls and procedure were failure to timely file tax returns, lack of formal documents such as invoices and consulting agreements and lack of evidence for proper approval and review of disbursements. Management does not believe that any of these weaknesses materially affected the results and accuracy of its financial statements. However, in view of this discovery of such weaknesses, management has begun a review to improve them.

 

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING .

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the (i) effectiveness and efficiency of operations, (ii) reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Our internal controls framework is based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting is as of the year ended December 31, 2018. We believe that internal controls over financial reporting as set forth above shows some weaknesses and are not effective. We have identified certain weaknesses considering the nature and extent of our current operations and any risks or errors in financial reporting under current operations.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

PART III

 

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

 

The following table sets forth the names and ages of the directors and executive officers of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and the principal offices and positions with the Company held by each person. The executive officers of the Company are elected annually by the Board of Directors. The directors serve one-year terms until their successors are elected. The executive officers serve terms of one year or until their death, resignation or removal by the Board of Directors. There are no family relationships among any of the officers and directors.

 

Name   Age   Position(s)
Bernd Schaefers   75   Director
         
William Fowler   79   Director

 

Bernd Schaefers is a veteran self-made businessman with over 40 years of work in the media industry with over 20 years in the advertising and marketing sector. Mr. Schaefers founded one of the most successful advertising production companies, Interteam Productions, in the 1970s with offices in Germany, Switzerland, France and Brazil.

 

William Fowler is a native Californian. He attended the University of Pacific in Stockton, California, with Athletic Scholarships (Football and Basketball) and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) Degree in Business Administration. Mr. Fowler has been a licensed Real Estate Broker since 1964 in the State of California. He is currently a corporate broker with RE/MAX Investments, a full-service Real Estate Firm in San Mateo, CA 94401. He, with two associates, founded 2050 Motors, Inc. in 2012.

 

Term of Office

 

All officers and directors listed above will remain in office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders, and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. There are no agreements with respect to the election of Directors. We have not compensated our Directors for service on our Board of Directors, any committee thereof, or reimbursed for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors and/or any committee of our Board of Directors. Officers are appointed annually by our Board of Directors and each Executive Officer serves at the discretion of our Board of Directors. We do not have any standing committees. Our Board of Directors may in the future determine to pay Directors’ fees and reimburse Directors for expenses related to their activities.

 

To management’s knowledge, none of 2050 Motors’ past or named Officers and/or Directors have filed any bankruptcy petition, been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past five (5) years.

 

Management has not filed any bankruptcy petition, been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or is the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past five (5) years.

 

14
 

 

Mr. Schaefers and Mr. Fowler resigned from their positions at 2050 Motors as Officers and Directors on March 6, 2019 and were replaced with Vikram Grover. Further information on this change of management can be found on Form 8-K filings with the SEC on or around March 6, 2019.

 

Board Committees

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have a standing audit committee of the Board of Directors. Management has determined not to establish an audit committee at present because of our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so. We do not have a financial expert serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B is beyond its limited financial resources and the financial skills of such an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in its financial statements at this stage of its development.

 

Code of Ethics

 

As of December 31, 2018, former management had not adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer because the Company has no meaningful operations. New management believes that a formal written code of ethics is necessary. We expect that the Company will adopt a code of ethics as soon as practicable.

 

Our directors will serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their successors are duly elected and have qualified. Officers hold their positions at the pleasure of the board of directors, absent any employment agreement, of which none currently exists or is contemplated. There is no arrangement or understanding between any person pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer, and there is no arrangement, plan or understanding as to whether non-management shareholders will exercise their voting rights to continue to elect directors to our board. There are also no arrangements, agreements or understandings between non-management shareholders that may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs. Our Board of Directors does not have any committees at this time.

 

Indemnification of Executive Officers and Directors

 

Our Articles of Incorporation and by-laws provide for indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the California General Corporation Law (the “CGCL”). Section 317 of the CGCL provides that any director or officer of a California corporation may be indemnified against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by him in connection with or in defending any action, suit or proceeding in which he is a party by reason of his position, so long as it shall be determined that he conducted himself in good faith and that he reasonably believed that his conduct was in the corporation’s best interest and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. If a director or officer is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in connection with such proceeding, such indemnification is mandatory.

 

We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Currently we do not maintain any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and officers against expenses and liabilities arising from certain actions to which they may become subject by reason of having served in such role.

 

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents where indemnification will be required under California law. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or preceding that might result in a claim for such indemnification.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

15
 

 

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

 

We have not entered into employment agreements with our executive officers and their compensation, if any, is determined at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

 

We do not offer retirement benefit plans to our executive officers, nor have we entered into any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payments to a named executive officer at, or in connection with, the resignation, retirement or other termination of a named executive officer, or a change in control of the company or a change in the named executive officer’s responsibilities following a change in control. We do not have any standard arrangement for compensation of our directors for any services provided as director, including services for committee participation or for special assignments.

 

The Company does not have a compensation committee. Given the nature of the Company’s business, its limited stockholder base and the current composition of management, the board of directors does not believe that the Company requires a compensation committee at this time.

 

The following table summarizes all compensation recorded by us in 2018, 2017 and 2013 for our principal executive officer, each other executive officer serving as such whose annual compensation exceeded $100,000, and up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been made in this table but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of our company at December 31, 2016. The value attributable to any option awards is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions made in the valuations of the option awards are included in Note 2 of the Notes to our Financial Statements appearing later in this report.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

 

The following table sets forth, as of the closing of the acquisition of 2050 Motors, certain information with respect to the Company’s equity securities owned of record or beneficially by (i) each Officer and Director of the Company; (ii) each person who owns beneficially more than five percent (5%) of each class of the Company’s outstanding equity securities; and (iii) all Directors and Executive Officers as a group.

 

Title of Class   Name and Address of Beneficial Owner   Amount and Nature of
Beneficial Ownership
    Percent of
Class (1)
 
Common Stock   Bernd Schaefers, Director     99,565,502 *     11.0 %
    William Fowler     78,727,701 *     8.7 %
Common Stock   All Directors and Officers as a Group (2 persons)     178,293,203 *     19.7 %

 

  * Includes shares held by entities under the shareholder’s control.
     
  (1) Unless otherwise indicated, based on 905,776,444 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this report. Shares of common stock subject to options or warrants currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days, are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage of the person holding such options or warrants but are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage of any other person.

 

We are not aware of any person who owns of record, or is known to own beneficially, five percent or more of the outstanding securities of any class of the issuer, other than as set forth above. There are no classes of stock other than common stock or Series A Preferred stock issued or outstanding.

 

There are no current arrangements which will result in a change in control.

 

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

As per Notes 7 and 10, the Company received loans of $100,000, $14,100 and $17,500 in years 2014-2017 from entities controlled by our Director Bernd Schaefers and our CEO and Director, William Fowler. The balances on these loans and accrued interest and penalties were converted into 138,117,816 common shares during the three-month period ended December 31, 2018. The providence of these loans and their conversions are being reviewed by current management.

 

17
 

 

Director Independence

 

Our Common Stock is not quoted or listed on any national exchange or interdealer quotation system with a requirement that a majority of our board of directors be independent and therefore, the Company is not subject to any director independence requirements. Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2)(A), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Under such definition our three officers and directors would not be considered an independent director.

In addition, fees and services related to the audit of the financial statements of the Company for the period ended December 31, 2018, as contained in this Report, are estimated and included for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
