NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management's Plans

Management’s Plans

We have incurred operating losses since Inception and historically relied on debt and equity financing for working capital. Throughout the next 12 months, the Company intends to fund its operations through revenue from operations, the remaining capital raised through the Follow-On Public Offering and cash2021 offering described in Note 1. The funds received on April 13, 2020 through a Paycheck Protection Plan Loan (“PPP Loan”) for $2,004,175. Based onfrom the revenue and margin impact of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) situation, we have adjusted many of the variable expenses which make up a significant portion of our entire cost structure and continue to adjust other operating costs appropriate for the situation. The PPP Loan, in addition to2021 offering, our existing capital and the ability to reduce expense levels further if necessary depending on the duration of the COVID-19 situation,pandemic, causes us to continue to believe the Company has sufficient resources to continue as a going concern.concern.

In March 2020, COVID-19 began spreading rapidly throughout the world, prompting governments and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Such measures included restrictions on travel and business operations, temporary closures of businesses, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders. The full extent of the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operational and financial performance is currently uncertain and will depend on many factors outside the Company’s control, including, without limitation, the timing, extent, trajectory and duration of the pandemic, the development and availability of effective treatments and vaccines, and the imposition of protective public safety measures.

Basis of Presentation – Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, within the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”"SEC"). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and of the financial condition as of the date of the interim consolidated balance sheet. The financial data and the other information disclosed in these notes to the interim consolidated financial statements related to the three monththree-month periods are unaudited. Unaudited interim consolidated results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 20192020 and notes thereto that are included in the Company’sCompany's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company’s most significant estimates and judgments involve recognition of revenue and estimates for future contingent customer incentive obligations, calculating insurance reserves, and the measurement of the Company’s stock-based compensation, and allowance for doubtful accounts.compensation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’sCompany's assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Fair-value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. Fair values for these items were assumed to approximate carrying values because of their short-term nature or they are payable on demand.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considers institutional money market funds and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consist primarily of amounts held in restricted bank account as collateral for the amount pledged to secure certain revolving line of credit.


Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported net of allowance for expected losses. It represents the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Differences between the amount due and the amount management expects to collect are charged to operations in the year in which those differences are determined, with an offsetting entry to a valuation allowance. As of March 31, 2021 and as of December 31, 2020, the Company has 0 reserve allowance.

Insurance Reserve and Insurance Deposits

The Company records a loss reserve for insurance deductible or physical damage that the Company paysand other liability coverage caused to car owners based on the Company’s policy in relationowner vehicles up to the Company's insurance policy in effect at the time.deductibles or relevant limits. This reserve represents an estimate for both reported accidents claims not yet paid, and claims incurred but not yet reported and are recorded on a non-discounted basis. The lag time in reported claims is minimal and as such represents a low risk of unreported claims being excluded from the loss reserve assessment. The adequacy of the reserve is monitored quarterly and is subject to adjustment in the future based upon changes in claims experience, including the number of incidents for which the Company is ultimately responsible and changes in the cost per claim, or changes to the Company’s insurance policy as towhich dictates what amounts of the deductible ora claim will be paid by the Company. Company. Effective March 1, 2021 the Company entered into a two-year claim adjusting agreement with Sedgwick which included an escrow account requirement of $1,750,000 to be held by Sedgwick for claim payments.  This escrow account is replenished by the Company on a quarterly basis dependent on the actual claims paid during that quarter.As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019, $1,453,2572020, $1,747,134 and $1,332,892$2,113,039 was included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, respectively, related to the loss reserve, where the expense is included in costs of revenues.

Liability insuranceWhile certain liability claims may take several years to completely settle, and the Company has limited historical loss experience. Because ofCompany's liability exposure limit is generally met in the near term. Due to our limited operational history, the Company makes certain assumptions based on both currently available information to estimate the insurance reserves as well as third party claims adjuster data provided on existing claims. A number of factors can affect the actual cost of a claim, including the length of time the claim remains open, economic and healthcare cost trends and the results of related litigation. Furthermore, claims may emerge in future periods for events that occurred in a prior period that differs from expectations. Accordingly, actual losses may vary significantly from the estimated amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Reserves are continually reviewed quarterly and adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes known. However, ultimate results may differ from the Company’s estimates, which could result in losses over the Company’s reserved amounts. Such adjustments are recorded in general and administrative expenses.costs of revenues.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates the majority of its revenue from its ridesharing marketplace that connects vehicle owners and drivers and the related insurance issued for each rental.Vehicle owners and drivers agree to terms of service with the Company in order to use the HyreCar platform and enter into a rental contract that governs each rental.  In entering into a rental agreement, the driver is charged in a single transaction:  the base rental fee as agreed upon between the driver and vehicle owner, a 10% HyreCar fee on the base rental fee, and a daily insurance charge (“Insurance and administrative fees”), all based on the number of days the vehicle is to be rented within the contract. HyreCar retains 15-25% of the base rental fee and remits the remaining portion to the vehicle owner. The 10% fee collected from the driver and 15-25% retained from the owner are considered “Transaction Fees” and the recorded on a net basis as described below. The Company recognizes revenue daily during the rental periods as the Company is required to maintain insurance underlying the transaction and as a customary business practice, a driver can return a vehicle early for a refund of the unused rental period. Insurance and transaction fees are charged to a driver in a single transaction. Drivers currently do not have an option to decline insurance at any point during the transaction.

The Company also recognizes revenue from other sources such as referrals, motor vehicle record fees (application fees), late rental fees, dealership subscription fees, and other fees charged to drivers in specific situations.  situations.  

In applying the guidance of ASC 606, the Company 1) identifies the contract with the customer, 2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, 3) determines the transaction price, 4) determines if an allocation of that transaction price is required to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognizes revenue when or as the companies satisfies a performance obligation.

Refunds may occur when the driver returns the owner vehicle early based on the terms of the original contract or cancels the rental prior to completing the exchange. In limited circumstances, the Company provides contingent consideration in the form of a rebate that is redeemable only if the customer completes a specific level of transaction over a specific time period. In such cases, the rebate or refund obligation is recognized as a reduction of revenues. The Company defers revenue in all instances when the earnings process is not yet complete.complete.

Principal Agent Considerations

The Company evaluates our service offerings to determine if we are acting as the principal or as an agent, which we consider in determining if revenue should be reported gross or net. One of our primary revenue sources is a transaction fee made from a confirmed booking of a vehicle on our platform. Key indicators that we evaluate to reach this determination include:

the terms and conditions of our contracts;

whether we are paid a fixed percentage of the arrangement’sarrangement's consideration or a fixed fee for each transaction;

the party which sets the pricing with the end-user, has the credit risk and provides customer support; and

the party responsible for delivery/fulfillment of the product or service to the end consumer.

We have determined we act as the agent in the transaction for vehicle bookings (Transaction Fees), as we are not the primary obligor of the arrangement and receive a fixed percentage of the transaction. Therefore, revenue is recognized on a net basis.basis.

For other fees such as insurance, referrals, and motor vehicle records (application fees), and dealer subscription we have determined revenue should be recorded on a gross basis. In such arrangements, the Company sets pricing, has risk of economic loss, has certain credit risk, provides support services related to these transactions, and has decision making ability about service providers used. used.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues primarily include direct fees paid for insurance to cover the vehicle driver and owner, insurance claim payments and estimated liabilities based on the policy in effect at the time of loss, merchant processing fees, technology and hosting costs, and motor vehicle record fees incurred for paid driver applications. General liability insurance that covers corporate risk from activity on our platform is included in general and administrative costs.costs.

Research and Development

We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. Our research and development costs consist primarily of non-capitalized development and maintenance costs. We expense these costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance.guidance.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock awards issued under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’semployee's requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’snonemployee's period of providing goods or services. The fair value of each stock option or warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Restricted shares are measured based on the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date.

Loss per Common Share

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”("EPS") and diluted EPS on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For periods in which we incur a net loss, the effects of potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive and would be excluded from diluted EPS calculations. For the three months ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, there were 251,846 and 2,680,093 and 2,888,883 options orand warrants excluded, 403,100 and 138,800789,289 and 403,100 restricted stock units excluded, and 0 and 400,000respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be credit worthy.  Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.  At times, the Company maintains balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

New Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), specifying the accounting for leases, which supersedes the leases requirements in Topic 840, Leases. The objective of Topic 842 is to establish the principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of consolidated financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lessors’Lessors' accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, Topic 842 expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. Lessees and lessors will use a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes several practical expedients. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 20202021 for emerging growth companies, with early adoption permitted. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020,2021, and interim periods within those annual periods, where the transition method varies depending upon the specific amendment. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. An entity that elects to early adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period, and all amendments must be adopted in the same period. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.Company.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, "Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815", which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting under Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. This guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Settlement and Legal

Except as may be set forth below, weWe are not currently a party to any on-going legal proceedings, and we are not aware of any claims or actions pending or threatened against us. In the future, we might from time to time become involved in litigation relating to claims arising from our ordinary course of business, the resolution of which we do not anticipate would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On November 13, 2018, two founders of the Company (the “Claimant Founders”), initiated two lawsuits in the Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco, (“SFSC”), entitled Nathaniel Farber v. HyreCar Inc., Case No. CGC-18-571257 and Josiah Larkin v. HyreCar Inc., Case No. CGC-18-571258. The complaints for the lawsuits, which were largely duplicative, alleged that the Company breached a Settlement Agreement by and between the Company and the Claimant Founders by not allowing the Claimant Founders to sell stock in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), failing to buyback Claimant Founders’ stock at the time of the IPO, allowing the issuance of certain stock without proportionately increasing the stock ownership of Claimant Founders, and not providing certain required information to the Claimant Founders. The Company strongly disagreed with all of the allegations and has vigorously contested both lawsuits. The Company believesbelieve that, at all times, its actions have beenwere consistent with the terms, conditions, and context of the Settlement Agreement, as well as applicable law. Pursuant to a motion brought by the Company, the two lawsuits were joined for pretrial and trial purposes.  The joined litigation is currently in the discovery phase. As the case has been litigated,progressed, the Claimant Founders have narrowed their allegations significantly. Mr. Larkin dismissed all of his claims in their entirety.claims.

Item 2. Management’sManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 20192020 included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors. We discuss certain factors that we believe could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our Company

We operate in the car sharing marketplace for ride sharing through our proprietary platform. The Company has established a leading presence in Transportation as a Service (TaaS) through vehicle owners and institutions, such as franchise car dealerships, independent car dealerships and rental car companies, who have been disrupted by automotive asset sharing. We are based in Los Angeles, California and car owners and drivers currently use the platform nationwide. Our unique revenue opportunity for both owners and drivers are providing a safe, secure, and reliable marketplace. We categorize our operations into one reportable business segment: Rental, consisting primarily of our vehicle rental operations in the United States.

Business and Trends

We generate revenue by taking a fee out of each rental processed on our platform. Each rental transaction represents a Driverride-sharing service driver (each, a "Driver") renting a car from a participating car owner (each, an Owner."Owner"). Drivers pay a daily rental rate set by the Car Owner, plus a 10% HyreCar Driver Fee and direct daily insurance costs. Owners receive their daily rental rate minus a 15-25% HyreCar Owner Fee. For example, as of March 31, 2020,2021, the average daily rental rate of a HyreCar vehicle nationally is approximately $38.00 (“$36.00 ("Daily Rental Rate”Rate"), plus a 10% HyreCar Driver fee ($3.80)3.60) and daily direct insurance fee of $13.00, totaling $54.80$52.60 in total daily gross billings in paid by the Driver via a credit card transaction. On average approximately 80% of the daily rental or $30.40 is transferred to the Owner via our merchant processing partner. HyreCar earns revenues from the two revenue share fees and the insurance totaling approximately $24.40$24.16 per day. Accordingly, the GAAP reportable revenue recognized by HyreCar is $24.40$24.16 in this example transaction as detailed in the following table:

Gross billing is an important measure by which we evaluate and manage our business. We define gross billings as the amount billed to Drivers, without any adjustments for amounts paid to Owners or refunds. It is important to note that gross billing is a non-GAAP measure and as such, is not recorded in our consolidated financial statements as revenue. However, we use gross billings to assess our business growth, scale of operations and our ability to generate gross billings is strongly correlated to our ability to generate revenues. Gross billings may also be used to calculate net revenue margin, defined as the company’scompany's GAAP reportable revenue over gross billings. Using the definition of net revenue margin and the example above, HyreCar’sHyreCar's net revenue margin is equal to approximately 44.0%46.4% ($5,780,413 HyreCar’s7,448,400 HyreCar's GAAP revenue over $13,140,698$16,056,275 Total Gross Billings).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Gross Billings

Gross billing is an important measure by which we evaluate and manage our business. We define gross billings as the amount billed to Drivers, without any adjustments for amounts paid to Owners or refunds. Gross billings include transactions from both our revenues recorded on a net and a gross basis. It is important to note that gross billing is a non-GAAP measure and as such, is not recorded in our consolidated financial statements as revenue. However, we use gross billings to assesassess our business growth, scale of operations and our ability to generate gross billings is strongly correlated to our ability to generate revenues. Gross billings may also be used to calculate net revenue margin, defined as the company’sCompany's GAAP reportable revenue over gross billings.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitate internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we use these measures for business planning purposes. We expect Adjusted EBITDA will increase over the long term as we continue to scale our business and achieve greater efficiencies in our operating expenses.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude:

other income (expense), net;

provision for income taxes;

depreciation and amortization;

stock-based compensation expense; and

prior expenses expected to be settled in stock included in liabilities.

For more information regarding the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, see the section titled “Reconciliation"Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Our definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Furthermore, these measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. Thus, our Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the related GAAP financial measures, revenue and net loss, respectively. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with their respective related GAAP financial measures.

Our operating results are subject to variability due to seasonality, macroeconomic conditions such as the recent novel coronavirus outbreak (“COVID-19”)COVID-19 pandemic and other factors. Car rental volumes tend to be associated with travel and driving holidays, where there is an influx of Uber and Lyft demand. Thus far in 2020,2021, we have continued to operate in an uncertain and uneven economic environment marked by heightened economic and geopolitical risks due to the COVID-19 situation.pandemic.

Our objective is to focus on strategically accelerating our growth, strengthening our position as a leading provider of vehicle rental services to ridesharing (Lyft and Uber) and delivery (Door Dash, Instacart, Postmates) drivers, continuing to enhance our customers’customers' rental experience, and controlling costs and driving efficiency throughout the organization. We operate in a high growth industry and we expect to continue to face challenges and risks. We seek to mitigate our exposure to risks in numerous ways, including delivering upon our core strategic initiatives, continued growth of fleet levels to match changes in demand for vehicle rentals, and appropriate investments in technology.

Management’sManagement's Plan

We have incurred operating losses since Inception and historically relied on debt and equity financing for working capital. Going forward, the Company intends to fund its operations through increased revenuerevenues from operations and the funds raised through recent public securities offerings. OurWe completed an underwritten public equity offering on February 9, 2021, consisting of an aggregate of 2,530,000 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $11.75 per share, which included the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option. This provided approximately $29.7 million in gross proceeds to the Company, before underwriting expenses and other costs. As a result, the Company believes it currently is sufficiently capitalized to pursue expanded business opportunities into the 2021 fiscal year.

With over 300,000 quarterly rental days in the first quarter, our annualized rental day run rate has increased to over 900,0001,200,000 per year. Our business model and platform allow us to potentially leverage new opportunities and create a larger market with ridesharing, food and package delivery services, and delivery now accounting for more than half. We expect to realize steady revenue growth through 2021.

The Company announced a new strategic partnership with AmeriDrive Holdings to create a national network of vehicle supply and fleet maintenance operations in January 2021 and is in the first quarterprocess of 2020 before the COVID-19 situation occurredexpanding operations starting in early March 2020. This situation has hadthe Southeast United States. On February 10, 2021, TrueCar announced a dramatic negative impactpartnership with HyreCar to provide its car sharing marketplace with a modern digital car buying and trade-in solution. The TrueCar partnership offers a potential way to address this significant market in a relevant and effective manner for dealers and customers. TrueCar helps create awareness that vehicle dealers can benefit from serving the Transportation -as-a-Service ("TaaS") industry via the Company's platform. We believe both the AmeriDrive and TrueCar relationships enhance HyreCar’s opportunity to increase revenue and profitability during the current fiscal year.

Based on the ridesharing sector as evidenced by revenue drops at the TNCs. As our operations are platform agnostic, we are diversifying our business to include other gig economy service providers, including but not limited to, food and grocery delivery services, as demand for those services has significantly increased. This expands the opportunities for the drivers and ownerscapital currently on our platform and solidifies their connection to our Company. 

Our key activity metric weekly rental days decreased approximately 30% from an all-time high of just over 20,000 weekly rentals in early March, reaching a floor of just over 14,000 weekly rentals in early April, and then started growing again as our car supply supported the expansion of the gig economy, reaching over 17,000 weekly rental days in early May, as shown in the chart below. We are attempting to mitigate the impact to our car owners and drivers,hand, as well as to the Company itself. Much of our cost structure is variable in nature so that our costs for driver screening, insurance, merchant processing, and more has almost immediately decreased in line with these lower activity levels. Based on generally increasing revenuesrevenue levels through the normal course of business, and a high relative amount of variable costs, our additional cash generated from the funded PPP Loan from JPMorgan Chase for $2,004,175 received on April 13, 2020, we believe the Company’s has sufficient resources to continue to operate its business for at least the next 12 months.Our current geographic footprint with volumes of quarterly rental days and net revenues from the quarters ended March 31, 2019 through March 31, 2021, is detailed below.

A Driver will typically rent a car through one transaction via our on-line marketplace. We recognize GAAP reportable revenue primarily from a transaction fee and an insurance fee when a car is rented on our platform when the Company, 1) identifies the contract with the customer, 2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, 3) determines the transaction price, 4) determines if an allocation of that transaction price is required to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognizes revenue when or as the companiesCompany satisfies a performance obligation. 

Cost of revenues primarily include direct fees paid for insurance to cover the vehicle driver and owner,insurance, insurance claim payments based on the policy in effect at the time of loss, merchant processing fees, technology and hosting costs, and motor vehicle record fees incurred for paid driver applications. General liability insurance that covers corporate risk from activity on our platform is included in general and administrative costs.

General and administrative costs include all corporate and administrative functions that support our business. These costs also include payroll for officers and operational staff, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs, professional fees, insurance costs to cover corporate risks , and other costs that are not included in cost of revenues. Research and development costs are related to activities such as user experience and user interface development, database development and maintenance, and technology related expenses to research, improve, implement, or maintain technology and systems utilized throughout our enterprise.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From timeWe are not currently a party to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits andany on-going legal proceedings, which arise inand we are not aware of any claims or actions pending or threatened against us. In the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arisefuture, we might from time to time that may harmbecome involved in litigation relating to claims arising from our business.ordinary course of business, the resolution of which we do not anticipate would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On November 13, 2018, two founders of the Company (the “Claimant Founders”), initiated two lawsuits in the Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco (“SFSC”), entitled Nathaniel Farber v. HyreCar Inc., Case No. CGC-18-571257 and Josiah Larkin v. HyreCar Inc., Case No. CGC-18-571258. The complaints for the lawsuits, which were largely duplicative, alleged that the Company breached a Settlement Agreement by and between the Company and the Claimant Founders by not allowing the Claimant Founders to sell stock in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), failing to buyback Claimant Founders’ stock at the time of the IPO, allowing the issuance of certain stock without proportionately increasing the stock ownership of Claimant Founders, and not providing certain required information to the Claimant Founders. The Company strongly disagreed with all of the allegations and has vigorously contested both lawsuits. The Company believes that, at all times, its actions have been consistent with the terms, conditions, and context of the Settlement Agreement, as well as applicable law. Pursuant to a motion brought by the Company, the two lawsuits were joined for pretrial and trial purposes. The joined litigation is currently in the discovery phase. As the case has been litigated, the Claimant Founders have narrowed their allegations significantly. Mr. Larkin dismissed all of his claims in their entirety. Mr. Farber dismissed all of his allegations except for an allegation that the Company failed to buyback the Claimant Founders’ stock at the time of the IPO. HyreCar believes that this remaining claim is without merit and has filed a motion for summary judgment regarding the same. Mr. Farber has filed his own motion for summary judgment, which HyreCar believes lacks merit and will vigorously challenge. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, SFSC operations have largely been suspended and the litigation has effectively been stayed. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate potential damage exposure, if any, related to the litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be impacted by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including those set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, the occurrence of any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our actual results.

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except as noted below.2020.

Unfavorable global economic, business, or political conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the global economy and in the global financial markets, including conditions that are outside of our control, including the impact of health and safety concerns, such as those relating to the current COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The recent global financial crisis in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic has caused extreme volatility and disruptions in the capital and credit markets. A severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including weakened demand for our platform and our ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. Any of the foregoing could harm our business and we cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current economic climate and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.
