ITEM 1. BUSINESS
In this Annual Report on Form 10-K, “we,” “us,” “our,” “EVCARCO,” “Company” or similar terms are references to EVCARCO, Inc., unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on October 14, 2008. Our offices are currently located at 7703 Sand Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76118. Our telephone number is (817) 595-0710.
Overview
EVCARCO, Inc. is a new car Franchised Dealership company that was incorporated on October 14, 2008 in the State of Nevada. We are engaged in selling environmentally conscious automobiles, offering both new electric and pre-owned vehicles, along with financing, warranties, maintenance, and mechanical services. The Company was established to manage several automotive dealerships in multiple cities throughout the U.S. The first location in Fort Worth, TX has been in operation since December of 2008. The second location, in Dallas, TX is scheduled for opening in April of 2010. Currently available products are from Wheego Electric Cars, Inc., manufactured in the US, and The Tazzari Group, produced in Italy.
Executives in the Company have many years of experience in the automobile industry managing large dealerships in the Dallas, Fort Worth, and North Texas regions.
Products and Services
EVCARCO has developed a new kind of business model for automotive dealerships that provide customers with quality, eco-friendly, and alternative-fuel vehicles, with an emphasis on performance, safety, affordability, and superior service. The Company already has established its first dealership at its Company headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas. In April of 2010, the Company headquarters will be relocated to Dallas, TX. The same property will house our second dealership location. This will be the model for all other dealerships, creating the first automotive retail group dedicated to deploying a coast-to-coast network of eco-friendly vehicles and dealerships.
EVCARCO intends to establish company-owned dealerships in other Texas markets, including Dallas, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio. The Company is also offering franchise dealerships in major markets across the country, initially focusing in the South and Southeast. The rate of expansion of company and franchise locations will largely depend on market acceptance of the new products and availability of capital. EVCARCO dealerships will offer the latest new electric vehicles, multiple pre-owned car brands that utilize various green technologies, such as electric, hydrogen, and compressed natural gas, and a small portion of regular pre-owned cars. Other products and services will include financing, warranties, maintenance, and mechanical services.
Some automobiles being sold by the Company are restricted by states to maximum speeds and streets with certain maximum speed limits due to their sale being pursuant to an exemption from certain Department of Transportation (“DOT”) safety requirements. Also, certain automobiles that are not subject to these restrictions are being sold from manufacturers without certain DOT safety standards being certified as having been met, based on an ability to manufacture and sell a limited number of models while the DOT certification is being obtained. These limitations may restrict the market for the models the Company offers, or limit the volume of models available to be sold.
The following is a limited list of manufactures, whose products we sell, or intend to sell in the near future:
| · | Wheego Electric Cars, Inc. - manufactures Wheego Whip, fully electric car, currently certified as Low Speed Vehicle (LSV), capable of traveling 40 miles on a single charge, with a base model delivered retail price of $19.995. Wheego wants to make the best electric cars in the world and educate everyone as to the practical benefits of owning and driving one. EVCARCO is offering Wheegos under exclusive authorized dealership contract for Tarrant Country, Texas and has options on other territories in several states. |

Currently, EVCARCO is the exclusive dealer of ZERO in the US. |
| · | EnVision Motor Company, Inc. - the exclusive distributor for Electric Motor Cars family of all electric vehicles, which include a 7 passenger station wagon, a cargo van, and a pick-up truck. Production is scheduled to begin in the next few months, with the estimated price between $35,000 and $40,000. EVCARCO is a non-exclusive authorized dealer of EMC products, and is in current negotiations regarding exclusive distribution rights for several states. |

It currently has distribution contracts for Tazzari and Foton vehicles, with many others in the works. Venta and EVCARCO work closely on brining new electric vehicles to US market. |

Models include the Triac™, a freeway commuter; the Moose™, a van that retails for $16,995; and the Buckshot™, a heavy-duty work truck with a best-in-class 1/2 ton payload capacity, retailing for $23,995. We are currently in negotiations to finalize the agreement with this manufacturer. |
| · | RONN Motor Company, Inc. - developed Scorpion HX™, hydrogen fuel injected hybrid vehicle. Estimated price for this exotic sports car is $250,000. Full production is scheduled to begin at the end of April, 2010. Their other products, H2GO™ real time hydrogen generation system and RonnZoil™ line of biodegradable lubricants will be available for sale in the near future. EVCARCO has signed a memorandum of understanding with RMC, and is working to finalize the agreement for retail sales of their products. |
| · | Coulomb Technologies Charging Stations - Coulomb Technologies provides networked charging stations for the electric vehicles. Coulomb offers 24/7 service and support for all of its stations as well as a Network Operating System that provides a smart charging infrastructure. EVCARCO is an authorized dealer of Coulomb products. |
Strategic Marketing Plan
Our overall marketing objective is to drive rapid market penetration of EVCARCO products, establishing us in the marketplace with high quality electric new cars and hybrid pre-owned vehicles. We will establish our branding as an environmentally responsible automobile dealership.
There are five key phases to the strategy in which EVCARCO intends to penetrate the marketplace:
| · | Launch EVCARCO franchises, with new electric vehicles and pre-owned operations. |
| · | Establish EVCARCO through branding the Company as eco-friendly by use of: |
| - | Billboards and other outside advertising |
| - | Internet sales and advertising |
| - | Industry specific magazines and articles |
| - | Involve local media by using the Go Green campaign |
| - | Join and sponsor environmental clubs and groups, plus participate in their community activities |
| - | Get involved in political issues which support the environment |
ITEM 1. BUSINESS - continued
Strategic Marketing Plan - continued
| · | Set up outside dealership displays and events to create awareness of the product capabilities: |
| - | Kiosk in malls with information |
| - | Exposure through daily use of vehicles |
| · | Develop Green projects and sustainable transportation programs with various governmental entities, non-profit and educational organizations. |
| · | Aggressively market its brand through social media, online strategic partnerships, and search engine optimization. |
Market Analysis
Hybrid Vehicles
According to R.L. Polk, registrations for new hybrid vehicles totaled 315,668 in 2008, down slightly from 2007 but still a 3,270% increase from 2000. Sales of hybrids show strong correlation with the price of gasoline. With the predicted rise in oil prices, due to growing global demand, future of these vehicles remains optimistic. In 2008, hybrids comprised 2.8 percent of all vehicles in North America, that number is expected to raise to 5.3 percent by 2012. Although, some experts believe, that hybrid vehicles are only a stepping stone on the path toward even cleaner and more energy efficient cars, powered completely by electricity, fuel cells and other developing technologies.
Electric Vehicles
In 2006, a documentary titled “Who Killed the Electric Car” was released as an expose of the various forces that brought about the demise of the General Motors (“GM”) EV1. The EV1 was introduced to consumers in California in the 1990s, and enjoyed strong consumer demand before vanishing from the market and the media. This film brought the electric car back to the forefront of environmentally conscious Americans, who began searching for electric vehicle options once again.
Current U.S. Administration announced plans for significant financial support for development of fuel-efficient vehicles, as well as advanced electric and hybrid batteries.
Most existing car manufacturers have electric cars in their production plans. Some of the models have already been announced for upcoming years: BMW Megacity, BYD E6, Coda (Electric Sedan), Ford Focus EV and Transit Connect Electric, Mercedes BlueZero, Mini E, Mitsubishi iMiEV, Nissan Leaf, Pininfarina Blue Car, Renault Fluence, Smart ED, Subaru R1E, Toyota FT-EV, Tesla Model S.
Compressed Natural Gas (“CNG”)
Currently, the only production CNG vehicle available is the Honda Civic GX; however, several companies sell aftermarket conversion kits for cars and trucks. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has stated that CNG is the cleanest internal-combustion technology available. Attributes include:
| · | Reduction of carbon monoxide emissions of 90 to 97 percent |
| · | Reduction of carbon dioxide emissions of 25 percent |
| · | Reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions of 35 to 60 percent |
| · | Potential reduction of non-methane hydrocarbon emissions of 50 to 75 percent |
| · | Emission of fewer toxic and carcinogenic pollutants |
| · | Emission of little or no particulate matter |
| · | Elimination of evaporative emissions |
ITEM 1. BUSINESS - continued
Competition
The Company’s franchise model will be deployed so that it faces minimal competition in each of its markets. However, the Company will face competition from electric carmakers sold through other dealers. Some of these are major players in the automotive industry (GM, Nissan, and others), while others are small companies that have hit upon the correct formula of price, performance, and features to make consumers demand their cars.
Competitive Advantage
EVCARCO believes that its competitive advantages include:
| · | The Company is the first automotive retail group dedicated to opening car dealerships that only sell eco-friendly vehicles |
| · | Management team has more than 45 years of combined experience in sales, service, ownership, and management of multiple automobile dealerships |
| · | Uses the most advanced clean technologies available |
| · | Best selection on both new and pre-owned electric vehicles and other environmentally friendly vehicles |
| · | We intend to have diverse sources of operating revenue |
| · | Creative marketing tactics that will reach a large segment of customers |
Sources and Availability of Products and Supplies
Currently the company has access to an adequate supply of products, from various manufacturers. These companies and their products are new, not well established, and are a subject to significant risk and uncertainty.
The Company believes that due to the number of manufacturers who are trying to develop alternative fuel products and constant progress in new technologies and new entrants to the market, loss of one or several sources will not have significant negative impact on our operations.
Dependence on One or A Few Major Customers
We do not anticipate dependence on one or a few major customers into the foreseeable future.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchise Restrictions and Contractual Obligations & Concessions
We own, and are in the process of registering, the following marks on the Principal Register of the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
MARK | APPLICATION SERIAL NO. | FILING BASIS | FILING DATE |
EVCARCO (standard characters) | 77/764394 | 1b (Intent to Use) | June 29, 2009 |
EV.CAR.CO (standard characters) | 77/799343 | 1b (Intent to Use) | August 7, 2009 |
EV.CAR.CO (stylized design) | 77/799389 | 1b (Intent to Use) | August 7, 2009 |
FUTURE DRIVEN (standard characters) | 77/799356 | 1b (Intent to Use) | August 7, 2009 |
Opposition period has ended and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a Notice of Allowance on January 26, 2010 (February 9, 2010 for “FUTURE DRIVEN”). On April 19, 2010, the Company submitted Trademark/Service Mark Statement of Use (15 U.S.C. Section 1051(d)) and requested registration of the above-identified marks in the United States Patent and Trademark Office on the Principal Register. Currently, there are no pending infringement, opposition, or cancellation proceeding or any pending material litigation involving the Marks. There are no agreements currently in effect, which significantly limit our rights to use or license the use of the Marks in any material manner. We are not aware of any superior prior rights or infringing uses of the Marks in any state.
We do not have a federal registration for our principal trademark. Therefore, our trademark does not have many legal benefits and rights as a federally registered trademark.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS - continued
Regulations
We operate in a highly regulated industry. A number of state and federal laws and regulations affect our business. In every state in which we operate, we must obtain dealer licenses issued by state regulatory authorities. Federal regulations and a lot of states require franchise or business opportunity registrations. Numerous laws and regulations govern our conduct of business, including those relating to our sales, operations, financing, insurance, advertising, and employment practices. These laws and regulations include state franchise laws and regulations, consumer protection laws, privacy laws, escheatment laws, anti-money laundering laws, and other extensive laws and regulations applicable to new and used motor vehicle dealers, as well as a variety of other laws and regulations. These laws also include federal and state wage - -hour, anti-discrimination, and other employment practices laws.
Furthermore, we expect that new laws and regulations, particularly at the federal level, in the labor and employment, health care, environmental, and consumer protection areas may be enacted that could also affect our business.
Safety, required gas mileage regulations, and state lemon laws, while affecting the automobile industry generally, could have an increased impact on the Company due to its size and limited scope of automobiles intended to be sold. Additionally many of the automobiles offered by the Company are subject to state LSV regulations, which vary by state.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Risk Factors Relating to Our Business
As a company in the early stage of development with an unproven business strategy, our limited history of operations makes evaluation of our business and prospects difficult.
We were incorporated on October 14, 2008. Our business prospects are difficult to predict because of our limited operating history, early stage of development and unproven business strategy. Our primary business activities will be to earn revenues through new car sales, pre-owned car sales, parts, service, both warranty and customer pay repairs, finance & insurance sales, accessory sales, and aftermarket products. Although we believe that our business plan has significant profit potential, we may not be able to attain profitable operations and our management may not succeed in realizing our business objectives.
Our business plan may be unsuccessful, and if it fails, we will not have alternate services or products to offer in order to ensure our continuation as a going concern.
The success of our business plan is dependent on the continued development and improvement by the manufacturers of the automobiles we sell. Lack of operating history makes it difficult to validate our business plan. In addition, the success of our business plan is dependent upon the market acceptance of the electric automobiles we sell. Should our market strategy be too narrowly focused or should the target market not be as responsive as we anticipate, we will not have in place alternate services or products that we can offer to ensure our continuation as a going concern.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS - continued
We have maintained losses since inception, which we expect will continue in the future.
We expect to continue to incur operating losses in near future. These losses will occur because we do not yet have sufficient revenues to offset the expenses associated with the development, marketing and sales of our products and services. We cannot guarantee that we will ever be successful in generating sufficient revenues in the future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate adequate revenues, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumptions regarding the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we can provide no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.
Our independent auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, indicating the possibility that we may not be able to continue to operate.
From inception through December 31, 2009, the Company has generated revenues of $934,336 and incurred cumulative net losses of $1,160,354. Without obtaining adequate capital, it is unlikely we can maintain operations long enough to become profitable. Therefore, we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial statements to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities which could result should we be unable to continue as a going concern. In addition, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the accompanying financial statements regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. To date, we have completed only initial stages of our business plan and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to generate enough revenue from our business in order to achieve profitability. It is not possible at this time for us to predict with assurance the potential success of our business. The revenue and income potential of our proposed business and operations are unproven, and the lack of operating history makes it difficult to evaluate the future prospects of our business. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in our Company.
We may not be able to execute our business plan or stay in business without additional funding.
We will require additional financing, through issuance of debt and/or equity, in order to continue operations. Such financing, may not be forthcoming. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms we find favorable, or result in profits.
We may not be able to compete effectively against our competitors.
We are engaged in a rapidly evolving industry, and face direct competition from companies that may have greater resources, research and development staff, sales and marketing staff and facilities than we do. In addition, other recently developed technologies are, or may in the future be, the basis of competitive products. There can be no assurance that our competitors will not develop technologies and products that are more effective than those being represented by us.
We need to retain key personnel to support our product and ongoing operations.
The development and marketing of our product will continue to place a significant strain on our management and other resources. Our future success depends upon the continued services of our executive officers who have critical industry experience and relationships that we rely on to implement our business plan. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers would negatively impact our ability to sell our product, which could adversely affect our financial results and impair our growth. Currently, we have no employment agreement with any of the officers, but anticipate entering into such agreements in the near future.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our executive offices are currently at 7703 Sand St., Fort Worth, TX 76118. The current lease for this location is for two years, with 5 months remaining at a monthly rate of $2,400. We intend to renew the lease for an additional two year term. This location serves as our primary office for day to day operation as well as storing, servicing and selling our new and pre-owned inventory. We expect to relocate the Company headquarters, and open our second dealership location, in April of 2010, at 6124 Denton Dr., Dallas, TX 75235. We do not have any investments or interests in any real estate. Our company does not invest in real estate mortgages, nor does it invest in securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate activities.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We know of no existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or any of their respective affiliates, or any beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest. Our address for service of process in Nevada is Nevada Agency and Trust Company, 50 West Liberty Street, Reno, Nevada 89501.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market Information
Our common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board (”OTCBB”) under the symbol “EVCA” on December 15, 2009. The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices of our common stock for the periods indicated.
Period | | High | | | Low | |
| | | | | | |
December 15, 2009 - December 31, 2009 | | $ | 0.510 | | | $ | 0.080 | |
January 1, 2010 - March 31, 2010 | | $ | 0.515 | | | $ | 0.090 | |
Prices may represent inter-dealer prices without retail markup, markdowns, or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions.
On March 26, 2010, the stock was delisted from the OTCBB for failure to comply with Rule 15c2-11. There was no wrong doing on the part of the Company. Our stock was delisted because our market makers chose to quote our shares on Pick Sheets, rather than on OCTBB.
The shares are still trading on Pink Sheets.
On March 29, 2010, Spartan Securities Group, Ltd. has filed a new Form 211 application with FINRA, in order to have our stock reinstated on OTCBB. We are expecting the application to be approved very quickly.
Holders
As of April 26, 2010, there were approximately 308 stockholders of record of our stock. Some holders of our common stock are “street name” or beneficial holders, whose shares are held by brokers and other financial institutions.
Dividends
We have not paid any cash dividends to our stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, or general economic and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, into our business.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
We do not have any compensation plans under which equity securities are authorized for issuance.

Overview
EVCARCO, Inc is a development stage company that was incorporated on October 14, 2008 in the State of Nevada. We have begun our business operations and we currently have minimal revenue and no significant assets, as a result, we face substantial liquidity risk and uncertainty, near-term and otherwise, which threatens our ability to continue. EVCARCO, Inc has never declared bankruptcy, has never been in receivership, and has never been involved in any illegal action or proceedings.
Since becoming incorporated, EVCARCO, Inc has not made any significant purchases or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations. EVCARCO, Inc is not a blank check registrant as that term is defined in Rule 419(a) (2) of Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933, since it has a specific business plan or purpose.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued
Overview - continued
Neither EVCARCO, Inc nor its officers, directors, promoters, or affiliates has had preliminary contact or discussions with, nor do we have any present plans, proposals, arrangements, or understandings with any representatives of the owners of any business or company regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger.
Plan of Operation
Over the next twelve months, we will concentrate on the following six areas to grow our operations:
| · | Capital and Funding – Seek to obtain capital from all available sources. |
| · | Advertising and Marketing – Work with TKMG, LLC to develop brand identity, marketing materials, and our web site. Utilize all available marketing venues and public relations opportunities to promote the Company and its products. |
| · | Sales – Grow sales to 45-50 new cars, and 125-175 pre-owned cars per quarter. |
| · | Product Development – Continue to work with existing manufacturers and new manufacturers. |
| · | Franchise Development – Begin marketing the EVCARCO franchise concept and licensing of Company’s Trademarks, with the short term objective of securing several territories and establishing five to ten Dealer Development Candidates during 2010. Several candidates in various states have already been identified for dealer development. |
| · | Product Research and Development – Continue working on identifying and testing products and vehicles from U.S. companies, as well as foreign manufacturers, which can provide cleaner, safer, faster, and more economical forms of transportation, by utilizing the latest developments in the alternative fuel area |
Maintaining an adequate inventory of automobiles requires significant capital. Given the Company’s liquidity limitations its inventory levels may be adversely impacted.
Operating Environment
The Company continues to operate in a tough economic climate, tight equity and credit markets, which caused significant decline in automobile sales and put many dealers out of business. This challenging operating environment also presents tremendous opportunity for our concept: decrease in competition, rise of fuel prices, consumers becoming more cost conscious, and environmental issues gaining a lot of traction, are making our products a lot more attractive alternative to traditional transportation solutions.
Operating Results
Since inception through December 31, 2009, we have generated revenues of $934,336 and incurred cumulative net losses of $1,160,354. Limited financial resources have affected our ability to acquire inventory. A majority of our gross revenues since inception have come from wholesale operations, with quick turnaround, but very low margins. Margins on the sales of new electric vehicles have been significant, and show a lot of promises for the future.
In July of 2009, we acquired a thirty pre-owned vehicles in exchange for stock and sold most of those cars by the end of that quarter. Although realized prices were disappointing, the proceeds covered a majority of our operating expenses for the third quarter and allowed for repayment of some short term obligations.
Certain consulting services have been obtained in exchange for stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had no significant cash reserves or other liquid assets. We anticipate that trading of our common stock on the OTCBB will increase our ability to raise capital and borrow funds.
Meeting future liquidity needs will require sales of dealership franchises, as well as income from new and pre-owned auto sales and service. We estimate it will take an estimated $165,000 per Company dealership location in addition to a line of credit of $1.2 Million for floor plans at each location. This means as a company in an early stage of development, our ability to proceed with our plan of operation will continually be a function of our ability to raise sufficient capital to continue our operations.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued
Other Items and Conditions
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $416,297 in debt and accrued expenses outstanding. The Company has no off balance sheet arrangements, or significant obligations under any contracts.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other information and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty and, accordingly, these estimates may change as additional information is obtained, as more experience is acquired, as our operating environment changes and as new events occur. Our critical accounting polices are listed in the notes to our aud ited financial statements included in Item 8 of this annual report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
EVCarCo, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of EVCarCo, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009, from inception on October 14, 2008 through December 31, 2008, and from inception on October 14, 2008 through December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conduct our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EVCarCo, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009, from inception on October 14, 2008 through December 31, 2008, and from inception on October 14, 2008 through December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, as of December 31, 2009 the Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,160,354 since inception, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
EVCARCO, Inc. (“The Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 14, 2008. The Company sells “green” automobiles, offering the latest technology electric vehicles, pre-owned vehicles converted to various green technologies, and a comprehensive financial package to complement their sales. The Company is in the development stage, having only begun operations recently.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company operates on calendar basis.
b. Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share
Basic net loss per share amount is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are the same as basic earnings per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.
c. Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There are no restrictions on Company’s cash. At December 31, 2009 balances in Company’s cash accounts did not exceed federally insured limits.
d. Inventories
Inventories of cars and parts are located at the Company’s Fort Worth office and are valued at the lower of cost (specific identification method) or market.
e. Facilities and Equipment
Facilities and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is charged on the straight-line basis for buildings, furniture and equipment over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, or the life of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major improvements are capitalized.

g. Warranties
The Company does not warranty the vehicles it sells and has no contingency after the sale. New vehicles carry manufacturers’ warranty. Warranty for pre-owned vehicles can be arranged through a third party provider.
h. Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
i. Income Taxes
A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards.
Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
j. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. This cash is on deposit with a large federally insured bank. The Company has not experienced any losses in cash balances and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

In June 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Office of the Chief Accountant and Division of Corporation Finance announced the release of Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 112. This staff accounting bulletin amends or rescinds portions of the interpretive guidance included in the Staff Accounting Bulletin Series in order to make the relevant interpretive guidance consistent with current authoritative accounting and auditing guidance and Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. Specifically, the staff is updating the Series in order to bring existing guidance into conformity with recent pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, namely, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007) (ASC Topic 805), Business Combinations, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standar ds No. 160 (ASC Topic 810), Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. The statements in staff accounting bulletins are not rules or interpretations of the Commission, nor are they published as bearing the Commission's official approval. They represent interpretations and practices followed by the Division of Corporation Finance and the Office of the Chief Accountant in administering the disclosure requirements of the Federal securities laws.
In September 2008, the FASB issued exposure drafts that eliminate qualifying special purpose entities from the guidance of SFAS No. 140 (ASC Topic 860), “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” and FASB Interpretation 46 (ASC Topic 810) (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities − an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (ASC Topic 810),” as well as other modifications.

The changes would be effective March 1, 2010, on a prospective basis.
The Company does not expect any recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE - continued
Board Composition
Our Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of one or more members, but not more than nine, and that our shareholders shall determine the number of directors at each regular meeting. Each director serves for a term that expires at the next regular meeting of the shareholders or until his successor is elected and qualified.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Due to our size, limited operating history and financial conditions we do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees of our Board of Directors. Our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee and handles matters related to compensation and nominations of directors. We do not have an audit committee “financial expert.”
Potential Conflicts of Interest
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executives or directors.
Director Independence
We are not subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or national securities association and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our board comprised of a majority of “independent directors.” Our determination of independence of directors is made using the definition of “independent director” contained in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Marketplace Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”), even though such definitions do not currently apply to us because, we are not listed on NASDAQ. We have determined that none of our directors currently meet the definition of “independent” as within the meaning of such rules as a result of their current positions as our executive officers.
Significant Employees
We have no significant employees other than the executive officers described above.
Family Relationships
There are no familial relationships among any of our officers and directors.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
No director, person nominated to become a director, executive officer, promoter or control person of our company has, during the last five years: (i) been convicted in or is currently subject to a pending a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to any federal or state securities or banking or commodities laws including, without limitation, in any way limiting involvement in any business activity, or finding any violation with respect to such law, nor (iii) any bankruptcy petition been filed by or against the business of which suc h person was an executive officer or a general partner, whether at the time of the bankruptcy or for the two years prior thereto.
Stockholder Communications with the Board
We have not implemented a formal policy or procedure by which our stockholders can communicate directly with our Board of Directors or make nominations to the Board of Directors. Nevertheless, every effort has been made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board of Directors or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. We believe that we are responsive to stockholder communications, and therefore have not considered it necessary to adopt a formal process for stockholder communications with our Board. During the upcoming year, our Board will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt such a process.

Code of Ethics
As of December 31, 2009, we had not adopted a Code of Ethics, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.
