Organization and Principal Activities Organization and Principal Activities
Ideanomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDEX) is a Nevada corporation that primarily operates in Asia, Europe and the United States through its subsidiaries.

Ideanomics Mobility’s mission is to use EVs and EV battery sales and financing to attract commercial fleet operators that will generate large scale demand for energy, energy storage systems, and energy management contracts. Ideanomics Mobility operates as an end-to-end solutions provider for the procurement, financing, charging and energy management needs for fleet operators of commercial EVs.
Ideanomics Capital is the Company's fintech business unit, which focuses on leveraging technology and innovation to improve efficiency, transparency, and profitability for the financial services industry.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation one year after the date these financial statements are issued and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Pursuant to the requirements of the ASC 205, management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date these financial statements are issued.

This evaluation does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented or are not within control of the Company as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.2 million. Approximately $1.2 million was held in accounts outside of the United States, primarily in Italy. The Company also had accounts payable and accrued expenses of $64.3 million, other current liabilities of $13.2 million, current contingent consideration of $0.7 million, lease payments due within the next twelve months of $3.2 million, and payments of short-term and long-term debt due within the next twelve months of $24.5 million. The Company had a net loss from continuing operation of $204.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, and an accumulated deficit of $1,090.6 million.

The Company believes that its current level of cash and cash equivalents are not sufficient to fund continuing operations. The Company will need to bring in new capital to support its growth and, as evidenced from its successful capital raising activities in 2020 and 2021, believes it has the ability to continue to do so. However, there can be no assurance that this will occur.

The Company has various vehicles through which it could raise a limited amount of equity funding, however, these are subject to market conditions which are not within management’s control. Management continues to seek to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, mezzanine or debt securities. As we seek additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that such financing would be available to us on favorable terms or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity capital markets is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, our performance and investor sentiment with respect to us and our business and industry. These factors individually and collectively raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has experienced greater net losses and negative cash flows from operating and investing activities in the year ended December 31, 2023, consistent with its business plan for ongoing activities and planned acquisitions. As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-K, securing additional financing is in progress, and as such management has limited the extent to which it is taking actions to delay, scale back, or abandon future expenditures. As such, management’s actions to preserve an adequate level of liquidity for a period extending twelve months from the date of the filing of this Form 10-K are no longer sufficient on their own without additional financing, to mitigate the conditions raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long-term needs. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

The Company’s ability to raise capital is critical. The Company has raised approximately $30 million, since the beginning of the first quarter 2023, including the sale of preferred shares, issuance of a convertible note, the sale of financial assets and the sale of shares under the SEPA.
Although management continues to use these facilities and other opportunities to raise additional capital through a combination of debt financing, other non-dilutive financing and/or equity financing to supplement the Company’s capitalization and liquidity, management cannot conclude as of the date of this filing that its plans are probable of being successfully implemented.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We believe substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date of issuance of our financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

During the year ended December 31, 2023, our business components Timios, US Hybrid, Tree Technologies, Justly and China met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations and are no longer presented as continuing operations. Assets and liabilities associated with these components are presented in our consolidated balance sheets as Discontinued Operations. The results of operations related to these components are included in the consolidated statements of operations as "Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax." The cash flows of these components are also presented separately in our consolidated statements of cash flows. All corresponding prior year periods presented in our financial statements and related information in the accompanying notes have been reclassified to reflect the Discontinued Operations presentation. Please refer to Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements of this Annual Report for additional information regarding these specific matters.
