Note 1 – Organization, Description of Business and Going Concern

 

Nature of Organization

 

DriveItAway Holdings, Inc. (“DIA Holdings”DIA”, “the Company”, “we” or “us”) was formed in Delaware on March 8, 2006 as B2 Health, Inc. On July 2, 2010, the Company acquired BFK Franchise Company, LLC (“BFK”), a Nevada limited liability company, and concurrently changed its name to Creative Learning Corporation. On February 24, 2022, the Company acquired DriveItAway, Inc., and on March 18, 2022, disposed of BFK and its other subsidiaries involved in the learning business. On April 18, 2022, the name was changed to DriveItAway Holdings, Inc.

 

DIA Holdings is a national dealer focused mobility platform that enables car dealers to sell more vehicles in a seamless way through eCommerce, with its exclusive “Pay as You Go” app-based subscription program. DIA provides a comprehensive turnkey, solutions driven program with proprietary mobile technology and driver app, insurance coverages and training to get dealerships up and running quickly and profitably in emerging online sales opportunities. The company is planning to soon expand its easy and transparent consumer app ‘subscription to ownership’ platform to enable entry level consumers to drive and acquire new Electric Vehicles. For further information, please see www.driveitaway.com.www.driveitaway.com.

Going Concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States, applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the period ended March 31,June 30, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $540,387697,482 and cash used in operating activities of $334,678366,356. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,921,1463,078,241. The Company has not established sufficient revenue to cover its operating costs and will require additional capital to continue its operating plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company includes: sales of equity instruments; traditional financing, such as loans; and obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimum operating expenses. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this plan.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America. The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the Company’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented herein are adequate and not misleading, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2022, contained in the Company’s Form 10K, as filed on January 13, 2023.


Basis of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DriveItAway Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary DriveItAway, Inc., collectively referred to as the “Company”. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions made by management include allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for deferred tax assets, fair value of equity instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates as the current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of six months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $41,91130,783 and $127,109, which included restricted cash of $26,992 and $0, respectively and did not have any cash equivalents.

 

Restricted Cash

As of March 31,June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had $26,992 and $0 in restricted cash that is held by AJB Capital LLC, for funds advanced by them, but are to be used for future payment for professional fees.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company reviews accounts receivable periodically for collectability and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts and records bad debt expense when deemed necessary. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on historical trends, customer knowledge, any known disputes, and considers the aging of the accounts receivable balances combined with management’s estimate of future potential recoverability. Accounts and receivables are written off against the allowance after all attempts to collect a receivable have failed. The Company believes its allowances for doubtful accounts as of March 31,June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 are adequate, but actual write-offs could exceed the recorded allowance. As of March 31,June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 the balances in the allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value 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 on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 


Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts shown of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expense, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Vehicles

 

Vehicles are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of seven (7) years. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Major improvements, which extend the useful life of the related asset, are capitalized. Upon disposal of a vehicle, we record a gain or loss based on the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value of the disposed vehicle. We remove fully depreciated vehicles from the cost and accumulated depreciation amounts disclosed.

 

Website and Software Development Costs

 

The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of website and software development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental and deemed by management to be significant, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the website or software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. Amortization expense related to capitalized website and software development costs is included in operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.

 

Capitalized development activities placed in service are amortized over the expected useful lives of those releases, currently estimated at three (3) years. The estimated useful lives of website and software development activities are reviewed frequently and adjusted as appropriate to reflect upcoming development activities that may include significant upgrades and/or enhancements to the existing functionality. We remove fully amortized website and software development costs from the cost and accumulated amortization amounts disclosed.

 

Construction-in-progress primarily consists of website development costs that are capitalizable, but for which the associated applications have not been placed in service.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of an embedded conversion option that is convertible into a variable amount of shares and warrants that include price protection reset provision features are deemed to be “down-round protection” and, therefore, do not meet the scope exception for treatment as a derivative under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, since “down-round protection” is not an input into the calculation of the fair value of the conversion option and warrants and cannot be considered “indexed to the Company’s own stock” which is a requirement for the scope exception as outlined under ASC 815.

 


The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record embedded conversion options and warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

 

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the embedded conversion options and warrants. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of our common stock, equal to the weighted average life of the options.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for all periods presented. The Company, through its DriveItAway online/app-based platform, operates in the retail automotive industry. The Company assists subprime and deep subprime candidates, with little or no down payment, in purchasing the used vehicle of his/her choice by first starting in an app based, turnkey rental, through participating franchise and independent car dealers. The Company derived its rental revenue from contract revenue share for rentals between participating franchise and independent car dealers and individual car rental customers (“customers”). In conjunction with the rental revenue, the Company generates revenue by providing driver and vehicle insurance through a third party, included in the rental contract with each customer.

 

The Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide an application to track car rental arrangements and to collect cash from car rental customers and remit those payments to participating franchise and independent car dealers, net of the Company’s revenue share. The car rental arrangements are over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably during the contract term. The Company’s performance obligation for insurance revenue is to collect insurance fees from the customer and provide the third-party provider payment for the insurance provided to the customer. The insurance is offered over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably during the contract term.

 

Rental and insurance transactions are prepaid at the beginning of the rental cycle (typically a one-week rental that has an automatic renewal) with an automatic charge to the customer’s credit card on file through the DIA system. The DIA system then distributes the vehicle owner share (typically 85% of rental revenue) to the vehicle owner’s bank account from the Stripe Account. This amount is shown as a deduction to Revenues (“Vehicle Owner Share”) on the Company’s Statements of Operations. The net amount is then transferred from the Company’s Stripe Account to the DIA operating bank account. DIA also distributes insurance amounts due to the third-party insurance provider on a monthly basis. This amount is shown as a deduction to revenues (“Driver & Dealer Insurance Cost”) on the Company’s Statements of Operations.

 

DIA also generates miscellaneous revenue in a number of ways. At the end of the rental term, the DIA software system checks for any excess usage and charges, based on the terms of the rental contract, and will automatically charge a customer’s credit card. These charges are recognized when the credit card charge goes through and recorded as miscellaneous revenue on the Company’s Statements of Operations. Additional miscellaneous revenue represents amounts earned on telematics equipment and telematics software services related to each rental vehicle used to track excess usage and charges. DIA performance obligation is to provide the equipment to the vehicle owner for self-installation and allow access to the software throughout the rental term. The Company recognizes revenue when the equipment is delivered to the vehicle owner. Miscellaneous revenue associated with use of the telematics software is recognized on a monthly basis.

 

The Company’s Cost of Goods sold consists of direct expenses, such as roadside assistance or telematics service fees, and credit card fees incurred from the cash collections and cash remittance process, as a significant portion of its performance obligation is to collect and remit payments through its credit card processors.

 


General Advertising Costs

 

General advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred general advertising costs for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022 of $38,45138,838 and $4,88914,155, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation expense for all restricted stock awards and stock options. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured using the grant date fair value of our stock, as determined by the Board of Directors. The fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period. We have elected to recognize compensation expense for all options with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the entire option. The determination of fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model is affected by our stock value as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility and the risk-free interest rate.

 

Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes and deferred income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. On a periodic basis, the Company assesses the probability that its net deferred tax assets, if any, will be recovered. If after evaluating all of the positive and negative evidence, a conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be recovered, a valuation allowance is provided by a charge to tax expense to reserve the portion of the deferred tax assets which are not expected to be realized.

 

Net Loss per Share of Common Stock

 

The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares and potential shares outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible debt, preferred stock, warrants and stock option.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

During the sixnine months ended March 31,ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued:

1,000,000 shares of common stock valued at $1,509 for commitment fees in conjunction with the issuance of promissory note of $750,000 (see Note 7).

250,000 shares of common stock valued at $15,000, for consulting services, based on the fair market value of the shares on the grant date.

During the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company had the following common stock activity:

On February 24, 2022, the Company recognized the equity of DIA Holdings as part of the reorganization which resulted in the Company recognizing the issuance of 13,716,041 shares of common stock and 15,100 shares of treasury stock, at a value of $1,720,867.

On February 24, 2022, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock valued at $316,324 for commitment fees in conjunction with the issuance of a promissory note of $750,000.
On April 20, 2022, the Company issued 88,085,681 shares of common stock as a result of the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
● In May 2022, 500,000 shares were returned for cancellation, to satisfy a note receivable in the amount of $100,000.

As of March 31,June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022,2022, the Company had 106,551,722 and 105,301,722 common shares issued, respectively.

 

Treasury stock

 

The Company records treasury stock at cost. Treasury stock is comprised of shares of common stock purchased by the Company in the secondary market. As of March 31,June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 the Company had 15,100 shares of treasury stock valued at $18,126.

 

Warrants

 

In November 2022, in conjunction with a private offering and the issuance of secured promissory notes of $200,000, the Company issued 100,000 warrants for $0.30 per share. The transaction led to no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon future settlement of the conversion options, therefore the warrants qualified for derivative accounting and were assigned a value of $3,794 which was recorded as a derivative liability and debt discount. The warrants expire in November 2027.

 

In February 2023, 1,000,000 warrants with exercise price of $0.05 were issued that expire on February 24, 2027 (4 year). As a result of the Company’s equity environment being tainted the warrants qualified for derivative accounting and were assigned a value of $21,469 which was recorded as a derivative liability and debt discount.

 

In March 2023, 125,000 warrants with exercise price of $0.05 were issued that expire on March 1, 2028 (5 year). As a result of the Company’s equity environment being tainted the warrants qualified for derivative accounting and were assigned a value of $3,835which was recorded as a derivative liability and debt discount.

 

All warrants issued were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement (see Note 8).

Note 7 – Convertible Notes Payable

 

AJB Capital Investments, LLC Note

 

Effective February 24, 2022 and as amended October 31, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with AJB Capital Investments, LLC (“AJB”), and issued a Promissory Note in the principal amount of $750,000 (the “AJB Note”) to AJB in a private transaction for a purchase price of $675,000 (after giving effect to a 10%10% original issue discount). In connection with the sale of the AJB Note, the Company also paid $33,750 in certain fees and due diligence costs of AJB and brokerage fees to J.H. Darbie & Co., a registered broker-dealer. After payment of the fees and costs, the net proceeds to the Company were $641,250, which will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

The maturity date of the AJB Note was extended to February 24, 2023. The AJB Note bears interest at 10% per annum for the original note’s period and 12% per annum for extension period which was started from August 24, 2022, and it is payable on the first of each month beginning April 1, 2022. The Company may prepay the AJB Note at any time without penalty.

 

The note is convertible into Common Stock of the Company at any time that the note is in default, provided that at no time may the note be convertible into an amount of common stock that would result in the holder having beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The conversion price equals the lowest trading price during either the 20 days trading days prior to the date of conversion or the 20 trading days prior to the date of issuance of the note (which was $0.14 per share). The conversion is subject to reduction in the following situations: (i) a 10% discount will apply anytime a conversion occurs when the company is not eligible to deliver the shares by DWAC; (ii) a 15% discount will apply whenever the shares are “chilled” for deposit into the DTC system; (iii) a 15% discount will apply if the Company’s common stock ceases to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; (iv) a 15% discount will apply if the note cannot be converted into free trading shares 181 days after its issue date; (v) in the event any other party has the right to convert debt into Common Stock at a greater discount to market than under the note, then the holder has the right to utilize such discount in determining the conversion price; or (vi) if the Company issues any shares of Common Stock for less than the conversion price in effect on the date of issuance, including any options, warrants or securities convertible into Common Stock at price less than the conversion price, then the conversion price shall be automatically reduced to the amount of consideration received by the company for such shares, except for any issuance that is an exempt issuance.

 

Also pursuant to the SPA, the Company was to pay AJB a commitment fee of $800,000, payable in the form of 5,000,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Commitment Fee Shares”) of which 4,000,000 shares were issued at note inception and 1,000,000shares on the October 31, 2022 amendment. If, after the sixth month anniversary of closing and before the thirty-sixth month anniversary of closing, AJB has been unable to sell the Commitment Fee Shares for $800,000, then the Company may be required to issue additional shares or pay cash in the amount of the shortfall. However, if the Company pays the AJB Note off on or before its maturity date, then the Company may redeem 2,000,000 of the Commitment Fee Shares for one dollar and the amount of the commitment fee will be reduced to $400,000. On issuance of the note, the Company determined that the guarantee on the commitment fee was a make-whole provision and an embedded derivative within the host instrument. The guarantee was bifurcated from the host instrument and recorded as a derivative liability valued at $385,796 using a Black-Scholes option pricing model (see Note 8).

 

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company also issued to AJB common stock purchase warrants (the “warrants”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $0.30 per share, which was assigned a value of $107,283 that was recorded as derivative liability. The warrants expire on February 24, 2027. The warrants also include various covenants of the Company for the benefit of the warrant holder and include a beneficial ownership limitation on the holder that, in certain circumstances, may serve to restrict the holder’s right to exercise the warrants.

 

After recording the derivative liabilities associated with the SPA, the Company allocated the net proceeds to the 4,000,000 common shares issued and the note itself based on their relative fair market values, resulting in the common shares being assigned a value of $65,274. The allocation of the financing costs of $108,750, the derivative for the guarantee of $384,287, the derivative for the warrant of $107,283, and issuance of the 4,000,000 Commitment Fee shares of $65,274, to the debt component resulted in a $665,594 debt discount that is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the AJB Note.

 

On October 31, 2022, the Company amended the AJB Note to issue 1,000,000 additional Commitment Fee Shares,, recognizing the value of the shares and a debt discount of $1,509 (see Note 5).

 

On February 10, 2023, the Company entered into second amendment with AJB by increasing the original principal of note with amount of $85,000 in cash for payment to vendors, issuance 1,000,000 additional warrant (see Note 5) and extension maturity date of note to May 24, 2023. The Company determined the extension of cash and term met the conditions of a modification.

During the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, the Company recorded interest expense of $46,88872,217, additional debt discount of $26,478, amortization of debt discount of $13,38725,902, a loss on change in fair value of derivative liability of $$(2,791272,161) for the guarantee and warrants and repaid $31,042 of interest. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, the derivative liability was $73,95352,062 and the debt discount recorded on the note was $13,091576, resulting in a note payable balance of $821,909834,423. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, the Company owed had defaulted on the convertible notes payable with aggregate outstanding principal of $$835,000 and $750,000, and owed unpaid interest of $17,60142,930 and $1,755, respectively..

 

Secured Convertible Notes

 

In June 2022, the Company’s board of directors approved an offering of up to 10 Units at $50,000 per Unit in a private offering. Each Unit consists of a Secured Convertible Note with an original principal balance of $50,000 and one warrant to purchase Common Stock for every $2 invested in the offering. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.30 per share and expire five (5) years from the date of issuance. Each Secured Convertible Note bears interest at 15% per annum, matures two years after the date of issuance, and is convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at $0.20 per share. Pursuant to a security agreement between the Company and investors in the Unit offering, and the subscription agreements executed by the Company and the investors, the Secured Convertible Notes are secured by liens on four existing electric vehicles that were owned by the Company at the time of the commencement of the offering, and eight additional electric vehicles that will be purchased with the proceeds of the offering, assuming all 10 Units are sold in the offering. The Company also granted subscribers in the Unit offering piggyback registration rights with respect to any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Secured Convertible Notes or upon exercise of the warrants issued in the Unit offering.

The cash issuance discount resulted in the recording of a debt discount of $20,000. The total debt discount of $43,124 is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Note.

Note 8 – Derivative Liabilities

 

Certain features and instruments issued as part of the Company’s debt financing arrangements qualified for derivative accounting under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as the number of common shares that are to be issued under the arrangements are indeterminate, therefore the Company’s equity environment is tainted.

 

ASC 815 requires we record the fair market value of the derivative liabilities at inception and at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item.

 

The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair values at inception and as of March 31,June 30, 2023. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration,

the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes model during the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, and year ended September 30, 2022:

 

Schedule of defined benefit plan, assumptions                
  Six Months Ended   Year Ended   Nine months ended   Year Ended

Note 11 - Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

 

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted net income per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods. Common equivalent shares consist of convertible preferred stock and convertible notes that are computed using the if-converted method, and outstanding warrants that are computed using the treasury stock method. Antidilutive stock awards consist of convertible notes that would have been antidilutive in the application of the if-converted method.

 

For the sixthree and nine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

For the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, compared to the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2022

 

Our operating results for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, and 2022 are summarized as follows:

 

 Six Months Ended     Nine months ended    
 March 31,     June 30,    
 2023 2022 Change % 2023 2022 Change %
Revenues $115,083  $21,646  $93,437   432% $193,088  $28,730  $164,358   572%
Cost of revenue  86,550   11,095   75,455   680%  150,664   21,789   128,875   590%
Gross Profit  28,533   10,551   17,982   170%  42,424   6,941   35,483   515%
Gross Profit Percentage  25%  49%          22%  24%        
                                
Operating expense  443,654   620,592   (176,938)  (29%)  578,229   951,136   (372,907)  (39%)
Other expense  125,266   482,766   (357,500)  (74%)  161,677   790,971   (629,294)  (80%)
Net loss $(540,387) $(1,092,807) $552,420   (51%) $(697,482) $(1,735,166) $1,037,684   (60%)

 

Revenues for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, increased $93,437,$164,358, from $21,646$28,730 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2022, to $115,083$193,088 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2023. This was primarily due to the somewhat greater availability of the supply of vehicles on our platform through a sublease arrangement, a derivative of the lessoning effect of the nation-wide car shortage resulting from supply chain disruptions due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the gradual increase in supply of, semiconductor chips, one of the main components that run vehicle electronics.

 

We anticipate that, in 20232024 automotive supply and demand will return to a more historically normal levels which should translate into greater vehicle availability for vehicles on our platform, leading to a further increase in revenues.

 

Cost of revenue for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, increased $75,455,$128,875, from $11,095$21,789 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2022, to $86,550$150,664 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2023. This was primarily due to one-time fees in preparing a sublease car for rental, including telematics product and installation fees, pick up and transport fees, etc. In general, each time a new vehicle is introduced on our platform, there are fees associated with the initial preparation.

 

Operating expenses for the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, decreased $176,938$372,907 as compared to the sixnine months ended March 31,June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in professional fees of $187,214$307,674 and salaries and payroll taxes of $32,575,$92,475, however, we had an increase in selling expenses of $33,562$24,683 and other operating expenses of $9,289.$2,559.

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022

 

Our operating results for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, and 2022 are summarized as follows:

  

 Three Months Ended     Three Months Ended    
 March 31,     June 30,

Revenues for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, increased $55,971,$70,921, from $11,029,$7,084, for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2022, to $67,000$78,005 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2023. This was primarily due to the somewhat greater availability of the supply of vehicles on our platform through a sublease arrangement, a derivative of the lessoning effect of the nation-wide car shortage resulting from supply chain disruptions due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the gradual increase in supply of, semiconductor chips, one of the main components that run vehicle electronics.

 

We anticipate that, in 2023 automotive supply and demand will return to a more historically normal levels which should translate into greater vehicle availability for vehicles on our platform, leading to a further increase in revenues.

 

Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, increased $41,269,$53,420, from $5,409$10,694 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2022, to $46,678$64,114 for the period ending March 31,June 30, 2023. This was primarily due to one-time fees in preparing a sublease car for rental, including telematics product and installation fees, pick up and transport fees, etc. In general, each time a new vehicle is introduced on our platform, there are fees associated with the initial preparation.

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, decreased $126,678$194,341 as compared to the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in professional fees of $114,567 and$120,460, salaries and payroll taxes of $44.325, however, we had an increase$59,900, and in other operating expenses of $32,214.$13,981.

 

Loss from operations was $199,688$122,312 for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, as compared to $341,068$334,154 for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022. The decrease of $141,380$211,842 was largely attributable to the change in operating expenses of $126,678$194,341 and an increase in gross profit of $14,702.$17,501.

 

Other incomeexpenses for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, was $380,309,$34,783 as compared to other expenses of $500,018$308,205 for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, we incurred a gain on change in fair value of derivative of $451,459,$47,725, amortization of debt discounts on our convertible notes of $28,555,$30,576, interest expense of $41,969$50,036 and interest expenses - related parties of $626.$1,896. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, we incurred a loss on contingency liability of $400,000,$60,000, amortization debt discount on our convertible notes of $87,683,$228,182, interest expenses of $11,481, interest expenses - related parties of $859$20,030, and interest income of $5.$7.

Going Concern

 

As of March 31,June 30, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $540,387,$697,482, accumulated deficit of $2,921,146$3,078,241 and did not have sufficient cash on hand to cover expenses for the next twelve (12) months. The Company intends to convert its convertible debt into common stock and to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending September 30, 2023.

 

The ability of our Company to emerge from the development stage is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue operations, and development of our business plan. In response to these requirements, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We believe our most critical accounting policies and estimates relate to the following:

 

Revenue Recognition
Stock-Based Compensation
Income Taxes
● Financial Instruments 
● Derivative Financial Instruments 

 

While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

 The Company’s revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for all periods presented. The Company, through its DriveItAway online/app-based platform, operates in the retail automotive industry. The Company assists subprime and deep subprime candidates, with little or no down payment, in purchasing the used vehicle of his/her choice by first starting in an app based, turnkey rental, through participating franchise and independent car dealers. The Company derived its rental revenue from contract revenue share for rentals between participating franchise and independent car dealers and individual car rental customers (“customers”). In conjunction with the rental revenue, the Company generates revenue by providing driver and vehicle insurance through a third party, included in the rental contract with each customer.

 


The Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide an application to track car rental arrangements and to collect cash from car rental customers and remit those payments to participating franchise and independent car dealers, net of the Company’s revenue share. The car rental arrangements are over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably during the contract term. The Company’s performance obligation for insurance revenue is to collect insurance fees from the customer and provide the third-party provider payment for the insurance provided to the customer. The insurance is offered over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably during the contract term.

 

Rental and insurance transactions are prepaid at the beginning of the rental cycle (typically a one-week rental that has an automatic renewal) with an automatic charge to the customer’s credit card on file through the DIA system. The DIA system then distributes the vehicle owner share (typically 85% of rental revenue) to the vehicle owner’s bank account from the Stripe Account. This amount is shown as a deduction to Revenues (“Vehicle Owner Share”) on the Company’s Statements of Operations. The net amount is then transferred from the Company’s Stripe Account to the DIA operating bank account. DIA also distributes insurance amounts due to the third-party insurance provider on a monthly basis. This amount is shown as a deduction to revenues (“Driver & Dealer Insurance Cost”) on the Company’s Statements of Operations.

 

DIA also generates miscellaneous revenue in a number of ways. At the end of the rental term, the DIA software system checks for any excess usage and charges, based on the terms of the rental contract, and will automatically charge a customer’s credit card. These charges are recognized when the credit card charge goes through and recorded as miscellaneous revenue on the Company’s Statements of Operations. Additional miscellaneous revenue represents amounts earned on telematics equipment and telematics software services related to each rental vehicle used to track excess usage and charges. DIA performance obligation is to provide the equipment to the vehicle owner for self-installation and allow access to the software throughout the rental term. The Company recognizes revenue when the equipment is delivered to the vehicle owner. Miscellaneous revenue associated with use of the telematics software is recognized on a monthly basis.

 

The Company’s Cost of Goods sold consists of direct expenses, such as roadside assistance or telematics service fees, and credit card fees incurred from the cash collections and cash remittance process, as a significant portion of its performance obligation is to collect and remit payments through its credit card processors.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 The Company recognizes compensation expenses for all restricted stock awards and stock options. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured using the grant date fair value of our stock, as determined by the Board of Directors. The fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period. We have elected to recognize compensation expense for all options with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the entire option. The determination of fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model is affected by our stock value as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility and the risk-free interest rate.

 

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes and deferred income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. On a periodic basis, the Company assesses the probability that its net deferred tax assets, if any, will be recovered. If after evaluating all of the positive and negative evidence, a conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be recovered, a valuation allowance is provided by a charge to tax expense to reserve the portion of the deferred tax assets which are not expected to be realized.

 

Financial Instruments

 The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value 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 on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 


Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts shown of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expense, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair value of an embedded conversion option that is convertible into a variable amount of shares and warrants that include price protection reset provision features are deemed to be “down-round protection” and, therefore, do not meet the scope exception for treatment as a derivative under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, since “down-round protection” is not an input into the calculation of the fair value of the conversion option and warrants and cannot be considered “indexed to the Company’s own stock” which is a requirement for the scope exception as outlined under ASC 815.

 

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record embedded conversion options and warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

 

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the embedded conversion options and warrants. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of our common stock, equal to the weighted average life of the options.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that in light of the material weaknesses described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31,June 30, 2023. See material weaknesses discussed below in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

(b)Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

 

Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditure are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

As of March 31,June 30, 2023, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31,June 30, 2023 due to the following identified material weaknesses:

 

Our control environment is inadequate. We have no risk assessment procedures, no formal information or communication process, and no monitoring activities in place. Additionally, we lack policies that require formal written approval for related party transactions.
  
We have not established and/or maintained adequately designed internal controls in order to prevent or detect and correct material misstatements to the financial statements. We do not have controls in place to prevent individuals from manipulating financial data or entering inaccurate data into the accounting software, and there are no controls over the financial reporting close process. Additionally, we lack segregation of duties and review procedures to ensure our financial data is accurate.
  
We lack the necessary accounting resources with sufficient SEC reporting experience, US GAAP knowledge and accounting experience. We also lack the resources to properly account for complex debt and equity transactions and are unable to analyze such transactions timely or in sufficient detail.

 


Management believes that despite our material weaknesses, our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2023 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.

 

(c)Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

 

Management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are no resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
