The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United StatesU.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue 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 when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 7 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, together with subsequent Accounting Standards Updates collectively known as the “leases standard” or “ASC 842”. ASC 842 requires a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new standard using the effective date approach. The Company elected to adopt both the transition relief provided in ASU 2018-11 and the package of practical expedients which allowed us, among other things, to retain historical lease classifications and accounting for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard. Additionally, the management elected the practical expedients allowing the Company not to separate lease and non-lease components and not record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less (“short-term leases”) on the balance sheet across all existing asset classes.
Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of $140,000 as of January 1, 2019, which primarily relates to the corporate office leases for SC Autosports. The standard did not materially impact the condensed consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. Adopting the new standard did not have a material impact on the accounting for leases under which the Company is the lessee.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 (Topic 350) Intangibles—Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU will be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company plans to adopt this ASU in the fourth quarter of 2019 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2018, the FASB released ASU 2018-2, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This standard update addresses a specific consequence of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”(the “Tax Act”) and allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects resulting from U.S. tax reform.the Tax Act. Consequently, the update eliminates the stranded tax effects that were created as a result of the historical U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to the newly enacted U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. The Company is required to adopt this standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. The Company has finishedadopted this ASU in the evaluationfirst quarter of 2020 and determined there is nothe new standard did not have a material impact of on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds, and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements under ASC 820. This ASU is to be applied on a prospective basis for certain modified or new disclosure requirements, and all other amendments in the standard are to be applied on a retrospective basis. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2020 and the new standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, and Derivatives and Hedging, which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for equity method investments in Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. This guidance will be effective in the first quarter of 2021 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance and do not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 9 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The spread of COVID-19 around China and other parts of the world has caused significant volatility in the markets of China, U.S., and the rest of the world. The pandemic has resulted in quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores and facilities in China and elsewhere. Although the Company’s operations in China has fully resumed in early March 2020, the COVID-19 will affect the Company’s business performance in 2020. However, the extent to which the COVID-19 impacts our operations will depend on its future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or minimize its harm, among others.

The COVID outbreak has seriously impacted the EV market in 2020, leading us to explore how to augment our business. As we looked at other market opportunities that leverage our expertise, the management of the Company found potential in a number of ancillary products aimed at intelligent transportation. For example, Electric Scooters and Electric Self-Balancing Vehicles have distinct potential, with tens of millions of units sold each year around the world. The Company is pursuing these opportunities by expanding production of intelligent transportation products that exploit our advantages in the Yongkang Scrou’s power electric motor and Kandi Smart Battery Swap’s power battery pack. Our products aimed at this market combines our motors and battery packs into a dynamic power train system. Through extensive product trials, we are able to meet a leading standard in China, and thus went into production in the second quarter. As this business is developing quickly and progressing, the Company will consider to merge Yongkang Scrou and Kandi Smart Battery Swap into a single company that specialized in both smart battery swap system and powertrain technology.
The Company originally planned to export 2,000 to 5,000 units electric vehicles to the gain from equity saleU.S. in the Affiliate Company and the decreased research and development expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized total revenue of $73,903,234 as compared to $62,690,873 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $11,212,361, or 17.9%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded $12,615,006 of gross profits, an increase of $2,968,994 or 30.8% from the same period of 2018. Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 17.1%, an increase compared to 15.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. We recorded a net income of $361,811 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to net loss of $1,418,879 in the same period of 2018, largely2020, but due to the increased revenue, decreased research and development expense and the gain from equity saleCOVID-19 pandemic in the Affiliate Company.
The current subsidy standard is provided forfirst half of 2020, the plan are being adjusted according to the situation of COVID-19 control in the CircularU.S, as well as the virtual pre-sales event on Further ImprovingAugust 18.
During the Subsidy Policiessecond quarter of 2020, the Company’s revenue increased to $19.4 million from $6.4 million during the first quarter of 2020. However, COVID-19 may eventually affect the Company's 2020 overall business performance. The operating results for the Promotionthree and Applicationsix months ended June 30, 2020 may not be indicative of New Energy Vehicles, which was jointly promulgated by the Ministryfuture operating results for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 or other future periods, particularly in light of Finance, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission in 2019. The current subsidy standard reduces the amount of national subsidies and cancels local subsidies, resulting in a significant reduction in the total subsidy amount as compared to 2018. We believe the new subsidy standard presents both challenges and opportunities to the Company. In the past few years, although the government had a strong support policy for new energy vehicles, the unstable subsidy policy and the unpredictable timing of receiving such subsidiesuncertain impact COVID-19 could have exerted tremendous pressure on the Company’s cash flow. Currently, in order to adapt to the new subsidy standard, the Affiliate Company is making full useCompany's business.
Results of Geely’s resources and developing new models with goals to be independent of the government’s subsidies and have strong competitiveness at the same time. The new model are expected to be placed to market by the end of this year or at the beginning of 2020. We believe the Company will have greater opportunities for development at that time.Operations
