March 31, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AYRO, Inc. (the “Company”), a corporation located outside Austin, Texas, was formed under the laws of the State of Texas on May 17, 2016 as Austin PRT Vehicle, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to Austin EV, Inc. under an Amended and Restated Articles of Formation filed with the State of Texas on March 9, 2017. On July 24, 2019, the Company changed its name to Ayro, Inc. and converted its corporate domicile to Delaware. The Company was founded on the basis of promoting resource sustainability. The Company is principally engaged in manufacturing and sales of environmentally-conscious, minimal-footprint Electric Vehicles (“EV’s”). The all-electric vehicles are typically sold both directly and to dealers in the United States, Mexico and Canada. The Company also operates a rental fleet of its three-wheel autocycle, partnering with fleet operators in destination resort communities. The Company is beginning initial stages of operations and is dependent on funding from equity investors. Management plans include continuing ramping up production and sales of vehicles in 2020. Management anticipates additional funding will be required, either through additional preferred stock offers or a new equity/debt funding. Management anticipates additional funding will be required, either through a pending merger (discussed in next paragraph), additional preferred stock offers or a new equity/debt funding.
On December 19, 2019, the Company entered into a material definitive agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) to merge with DropCar, Inc. a Delaware corporation. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of DropCar common stock based on an agreed-to exchange ratio. Additionally, upon closing of the merger, certain investors of DropCar are committed to increasing their equity investment in the combined companies. The merger is expected to close in the first half of 2020.
On March 13, 2019, the Company entered into a strategic Definitive Agreement with Club Car, a division of Ingersoll Rand, granting exclusive rights to private-label the AEV 411 light electric truck for resale to its 535 dealer network. Club Car must order a minimum of 500 vehicles over a twelve month period in order to maintain exclusive rights to the private-label rights of the vehicles. The Company has begun shipping vehicles under this master procurement agreement.
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with General Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of AYRO, Inc. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods shown have been made.
The Condensed Balance sheets and the Condensed Statements of Operations, Stockholders’ Equity and Cash Flows included in this report have been prepared by the Company. In our opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as March 31, 2020 and results of operations and cash flows for all periods have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the Unites States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition:
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. The Company adopted the ASU No. 2014-09 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption and comparable period financial statement amounts have not been adjusted. The Company’s reported results in 2019 would not have been different if reported under the previous accounting standard.
Product revenue from customer contracts is recognized on the sale of each electric vehicle as vehicles are shipped to customers. The majority of our vehicle sales orders generally have only one performance obligation: sale of complete vehicles. Ownership and risk of loss transfers to the customer based on FOB shipping point and freight charges are the responsibility of the customer. Payments are typically received at the point control transfers or in accordance with payment terms customary to the business. Vehicle product revenue for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $124,365 and $76,843, respectively. The Company provides product warranties to assure that the product complies with agreed upon specifications. Customers do not have the option to purchase a warranty separately; as such, warranty is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation.
Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are classified as shipping revenue, and we have elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping when control over vehicles has transferred to the customer as an operating expense. Our policy is to exclude taxes collected from a customer from the transaction price of automotive contracts. Shipping revenue for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $15,405 and $6,490, respectively.
Subscription revenue from revenue sharing with Destination Fleet Operators (“DFO’s”) and other vehicle rental agreements is recorded in the month the vehicles in the Company’s fleet is rented. The Company established its rental fleet in late March 2019. For the rental fleet, the Company retains title and ownership to the vehicles and places them in DFO’s in resort communities that typically rent golf cars for use in those communities as well as food service delivery. Subscription revenue from revenue sharing activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $1,786 and $618, respectively.
Services and other revenue consist of non-warranty after-sales vehicle services. Service and replacement parts revenue for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $5,261 and $0, respectively.
Payments received in advance of the delivery of vehicles or performance of services are reported in the accompanying balance sheets as contract liability.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of financial statement presentation, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with initial maturities of 90 days or less to be cash. The Company maintains cash balances which may exceed federally insured limits. Management does not believe that this results in any significant credit risk.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained and reflects the best estimate of probable losses determined principally on the basis of historical experience and specific allowances for known troubled accounts. All accounts or portions thereof that are deemed to be uncollectible or that require an excessive collection cost are written off to the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, management has determined that an allowance for $38,778 and $36,084, respectively, is reasonable to absorb any losses which may arise. In the event that actual losses differ from our estimate, the results of future periods may be impacted. All accounts receivable are made on an unsecured basis. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 in its analysis of receivables and determined that allowance for doubtful accounts was appropriate at March 31, 2020.
Inventories: Inventories are reported at the lesser of cost (using the first-in, first-out method “FIFO”) or net realizable value. Inventories consist of purchased chassis, cabs, batteries, truck beds/boxes, component parts as well as freight, tariffs, duties and other transport-in costs. Inventories are categorized as raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Work-in-process and finished goods include labor and overhead costs. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on its recorded value of inventory and determined no adjustment was necessary.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are recorded at the original cost and are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the assets or the remaining period of the lease, whichever is shorter. Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $86,058 and $83,280, respectively.
Intangible Assets: Intangible assets consist of the cost in registering patents for the Company’s unique inventions. Such patent-related expenses are recorded at their estimated fair value on the date of cost encumbrance and are being amortized over estimated life of 5 years. Intangible assets also include investments made with the supply chain partner, who is also an investor, for tooling and assembly line configuration. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $28,217 and $24,987, respectively.
The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC 360 requires that if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost of long-lived assets or asset groups may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the asset’s carrying value to determine if a write-down to market value would be required. Long-lived assets or asset groups that meet the criteria in ASC 360 as being held for sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amount or fair market value, less costs to sell. Management has determined that there is no impairment as of March 31, 2020.
Contract Liability: Customer invoices where payment has been received, yet product has not shipped, and therefore revenue cannot be recognized are recorded as a current liability under contract liability. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, contract liability was recorded as current liabilities of $71,404 and $0, respectively.
Deferred Rent: The Company recognizes the minimum non-contingent rents required under operating leases as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lives of the leases, with differences between amounts recognized as expense and the amounts actually paid recorded within the accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheets. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, deferred rent was recorded as current liabilities of $20,705 and $0, respectively.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Warranties: The Company records a reserve for warranty repairs upon the initial delivery of vehicles to its dealer network. The Company provides a product warranty on each vehicle including powertrain, battery pack and electronics package. Such warranty matches the product warranty provided by its supply chain for warranty parts for all unaltered vehicles and is not considered a separate performance obligation. The supply chain warranty does not cover warranty-based labor needed to replace a part under warranty. Warranty reserves include management’s best estimate of the projected cost of labor to repair/replace all items under warranty. The Company reserves a percentage of all dealer-based sales to cover an industry-standard warranty fund to support dealer labor warranty repairs. Such percentage is recorded as a component of cost of revenues in the statement of operations. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, warranty reserves were recorded as current liabilities of $29,171 and $27,375, respectively.
Leases: Operating lease assets are included within operating lease right-of-use assets, and the corresponding operating lease liabilities are included within accrued liabilities and other for the current portion, and within other long-term liabilities for the long-term portion on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Finance lease assets are included within property, plant and equipment, net, and the corresponding finance lease liabilities are included within current portion of long-term debt and finance leases for the current portion, and within long-term debt and finance leases, net of current portion for the long-term portion on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
The Company has elected not to present short-term leases on the consolidated balance sheet as these leases have a lease term of 12 months or less at lease inception and do not contain purchase options or renewal terms that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. All other lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Because most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Stock Based Compensation: The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions of FASB ASC 718, which requires all stock-based compensation costs to be measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the period the services are rendered, which is generally the option vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing method to determine the fair value of stock options and thus determining compensation expense associated with the grant.
The Company measures stock-based compensation expense for its non-employees and consultants under FASB ASC 505-50, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods and Services”. In accordance with ASC Topic 505-50, these stock options and warrants issued as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based upon the fair value of the underlying equity instrument. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional-paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
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 March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company excluded the outstanding warrant and option securities, which entitle 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.
Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach, which allows for the recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The accounting for deferred income tax calculation represents the management’s best estimate on the most likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns and related future anticipation. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.
The Company evaluates uncertainty in income tax positions based on a more-likely-than-not recognition standard. If that threshold is met, the tax position is then measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If applicable, the Company records interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no accruals for uncertain tax positions.
Use of Accounting Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make 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. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements: The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on an exit price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based information over entity specific information and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:
● | Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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 other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active | |
● | Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement |
Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements for current assets and current liabilities approximate the fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturities of the financial instruments. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any level 2 or level 3 instruments.
Concentrations: For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company purchased 95% and 100%, respectively, of its vehicle parts that it assembles from one supplier, a related entity (Note 13). Any disruption in the operation of this supplier could adversely affect the Company’s operations.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had one customer that accounted for 100% and 85% of its revenue, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 (“ASC 842”), Leases, to require lessees to recognize all leases, with certain exceptions, on the balance sheet, while recognition on the statement of operations will remain similar to lease accounting under ASC 840. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-20, Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors, and ASU 2019-01, Codification Improvements, to clarify and amend the guidance in ASU No. 2016-02. ASC 842 eliminates real estate-specific provisions and modifies certain aspects of lessor accounting. The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 using the cumulative effect adjustment approach (“adoption of the new lease standard”). In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed us to carry forward the historical determination of contracts as leases, lease classification and not reassess initial direct costs for historical lease arrangements. Accordingly, previously reported financial statements, including footnote disclosures, have not been recast to reflect the application of the new standard to all comparative periods presented. The adoption had a material impact on our Condensed Balance Sheets but did not have a significant impact on our Condensed Statements of Operations or our Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on our Condensed Balance Sheets. See Note 7.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. The amendment also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts and customers. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is prohibited. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of the adoption. The Company adopted the ASU No. 2014-09 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Going Concern: The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include completing a reverse merger with DropCar, Inc., a Delaware corporation under a merger agreement signed on December 19, 2019. Upon closing of the merger, certain investors of DropCar are committed to increasing their equity investment in the combined companies. Such equity investment is expected to support the Company’s operations for at least fifteen months. The merger is expected to close in the first half of 2020. Additionally, the Company will continue to raise capital through additional funding sources, growing its dealer channel base to increase product sales revenue, and expanding its product portfolio offerings. If the Company cannot achieve its operating plan, the Company may find it necessary to dispose of assets or undertake other actions, as may be appropriate.

NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED PAYMENTS (Continued)
Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based awards requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, and for stock options, the expected life of the option, and the expected stock price volatility. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock option awards. As a result, if factors change and different assumptions are used, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different for future awards.
The Company uses the following inputs when valuing stock-based awards. The expected life of the employee stock options was estimated using the “simplified method”, as the Company has no historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and employment duration for its stock option grants. The simplified method is based on the average of the vesting tranches and the contractual life of each grant. The expected life of awards that vest immediately use the contractual maturity since they are vested when issued. For stock price volatility, the valuation firm uses public company compatibles and historical private placement data as a basis for its expected volatility to calculate the fair value of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option at the grant-date.
Stock-based compensation as a result of stock option awards is included in the statement of operations as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:
2020
(Unaudited) | 2019

Research and development | $ | 15,872 | $ | 31,658 | ||||
Sales and marketing | $ | 34,584 | $ | 1,416 | ||||
General and administrative | $ | 83,946 | $ | 37,544 |
See below for the weighted average variables used in assessing the fair value at the grant dates:
2020 | 2019 | |||||||
Expected life (years) | 3.0 | 3.0 | ||||||
Risk-free interest rate | 0.29 | % | 1.62 | % | ||||
Expected volatility | 74.4 | % | 71.0 | % | ||||
Total grant date fair value | $ | 0.99 | $ | 0.94 |
Total compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized as of March 31, 2020 was $785,257 and will be recognized on a straight-line basis through the end of the vesting periods in 2021. Future stock option compensation expense related to these options to be recognized during the years ending December 31, 2020 (remainder), 2021 and 2022 is expected to be approximately $356,229, $281,142 and $147,886, respectively. The amount of future stock option compensation expense could be affected by any future option grants or by any forfeitures.

Warrants: The Company grants stock warrants pursuant to the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) effective January 1, 2017. The Company measures consultant and debtholder stock-based awards at grant-date fair value and recognizes contractor consulting expense for contractor warrants and interest expense for debtholder warrants on a straight-line method basis over the vesting period of the award. Grants to consultants are expensed at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the service provider to earn the equity instrument is reached and (ii) the date at which the service provider’s performance is complete. Grants to debtholders are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the debt facility.
Determining the appropriate fair value of the warrants requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the expected life of the warrant, and the expected stock price volatility. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its warrants granted. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of warrant grants are based on periodic valuations performed by an independent third-party valuation firm. As a result, if factors change and different assumptions are used, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different for future awards.

NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED PAYMENTS (Continued)
The Company uses the following inputs when valuing stock-based awards. Warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock granted to consultants are granted based on a five (5) year life. For stock price volatility, the valuation firm uses public company compatibles and historical private placement data as a basis for its expected volatility to calculate the fair value of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option at the grant-date.
Stock-based compensation, for warrants is included in the statement of operations as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure in these financial statements through April 30, 2020, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued and has not identified any material events requiring disclosure other than identified below.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus a “pandemic.” First identified in late 2019 and now known as COVID-19, the outbreak has impacted thousands of individuals worldwide. In response, many countries have implemented measures to combat the outbreak that have impacted global business operations. As of the date of the condensed financial statements, our operations have not been significantly impacted; however, we continue to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the consolidated balance sheet date, as the carrying amounts of our assets are expected to be recoverable; however, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition could be negatively impacted, the extent of the impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
In April 2020, the Company issued a promissory note payable to an individual investor providing $600,000 of short-term financing.

In conjunction with the notes, common stock representing two percent (2%) of the combined company’s post-merger outstanding common stock was granted each to the lender and to Mr. Adams as compensation for his personal guarantee.
In May 2020, the Company received a $218,000 loan from its primary bank under the Paycheck Protection Program administered by the Small Business Administration. The note carries a two-year maturity at a one percent interest rate. No payments are required for six months.
