Notes To Financial Statements (Unaudited)
2050 Motors, Inc., (the “Company”) is a high-tech development stage company formed to import, market, and sell electric cars manufactured in China. 2050 Motors has entered into an agreement with Jiangsu Aoxin New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd., located in Jiangsu, China (“Aoxin”), for the distribution in the United States of a new electric automobile, known as the e-Go EV.
1. DEVELOPMENT STAGE
The Company is in the development stage, it has not generated any revenues from operations, it has no assurance of any future revenues or its ability to obtain additional capital to fund future acquisitions, or, if such funds might be available, that they will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company.
The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent on its ability to develop additional sources of capital, and/or achieve profitable operations, positive cash flows, and the successful distribution of the vehicles in the USA markets. Management’s plan is to aggressively pursue its present business plan. Since inception the Company has funded its operations through the issuance of common stock and related party funding and advances, and will seek additional debt or equity financing as required.. However, there can be no assurance that the Company would be successful in raising such additional funds. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue upon concluding that all of the fundamental criteria for revenue recognition have been met. The criteria are usually met at the time products are shipped. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and records a reserve for sales returns and allowances based on the historical rate of returns on its products. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had not recognized any revenue.
Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development cost amounted to $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the period from November 1, 2012 (date of inception) to June 30, 2014, respectively.
Advertising Costs
Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising are expensed when incurred and included in selling general and administrative expenses. Advertising expense amounted to $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the period from November 1, 2012 (date of inception) to June 30, 2014, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income. Property and equipment are depreciated over the useful lives of the asset using the straight line method.
Depreciation for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 totaled $2,347 and $0, respectively. No depreciation expenses were recognized for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the period from November 1, 2012 (date of inception) to June 30, 2014, the Company has incurred losses; therefore the effect of any Common Stock equivalent would be anti-dilutive during those periods. There were no warrants, options, or other stock equity outstanding as of June 30, 2014.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is les s than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded. No impairment losses were recognized for the three and six month ended June 30, 2014.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Cash and cash equivalents are mainly maintained by one highly qualified institution in the United States. At various times such amounts are in excess of federally insured limits.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes . This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes. The accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an entity in its tax returns that might be uncertain.
The accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by the Company in its Federal and State tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. The Company is subject to examinations by U.S. Federal and State tax authorities from 2012 (inception) to the present, generally for three years after they are filed.

This new accounting standard is effective as of January 1, 2014. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard that requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented as a decrease in a deferred tax asset where a net operating loss, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists and certain criteria are met. The new accounting standard is effective as of January 1, 2014 and is consistent with the Company’s present practice.
3. VEHICLE DEPOSITS
2050 Motors purchased three prototype test models for delivery into the United States. One will undergo an advanced crash test known in the Automobile Safety Industry as the “overlap crash test” designed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
Plan of Operations
This 10−Q contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those set forth as a result of general economic conditions and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. The analysis set forth below is provided pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is not intended to serve as a basis for projections of future events.
Plan of Operation
Prior to the completion of the acquisition of 2050 Motors, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (“2050 Motors”) on May 2, 2014, the Company was a public “shell” company with nominal assets whose sole business was to identify, evaluate, and investigate various companies to acquire or with which to merge. Upon consummation of the transaction with 2050 Motors, the Company’s business became the business of 2050 Motors, which is the Company’s sole operating subsidiary. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months will be to achieve long-term growth through 2050 Motors.
The Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of 2050 Motors on May 2, 2014. The acquisition was effected pursuant to the terms of a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) entered into on February 5, 2014, by and between the Company, 2050 Motors and Certain Shareholders of 2050 Motors. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of 2050 Motors in exchange for 24,994,670post-split shares of the Company’s common stock (aggregating approximately 82% of its issued and outstanding common stock).
2050 Motors principal activity is the importation and the marketing and selling of electric automobiles. 2050 Motors, Inc. has an exclusive license, subject to minimum sales requirements, to import, market and sell in the United States, Puerto Rico, the US Territories and Peru, the “e-Go” lightweight carbon fiber all-electric vehicle design and electric light truck, manufactured by Jiangsu Aoxin New Energy Automobile Co., LTD (“Aoxin Automobile”) located in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”). Aoxin Automobile is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dongfeng Motors Corporation (“Dongfeng Motor”) which is one of the largest automobile manufacturers in China, producing over 3.76 million cars and trucks in 2012. Aoxin Automobile was funded by Dongfeng Motors to develop and manufacture a lightweight, super-efficient, carbon fiber e-Go EV electric car (“e-Go EV”).
The e-Go EV is a unique concept electric vehicle. It will be the only production line electric vehicle with a carbon fiber body manufactured by a new process that uses robotics to produce parts, which significantly reduces the production time and cost of carbon fiber components. The carbon fiber composite material is five times stronger than steel, and one third the weight.
The exclusive license contract between 2050 Motors and Aoxin Automobile requires that 2050 Motors complete US crash testing according to US Department of Transportation (“DOT”) safety standards. 2050 Motors has entered into negotiations with Calspan Corporation (‘Calspan”). Calspan is committed to the evolution of safety in the air and on the ground, and has assisted in developing new aircraft; training world-class test pilots; performing ground-breaking automobile accident research; and contributing to safety innovations on the ground and in the air over its 70-year history. It’s important to note that one of the three demonstration vehicles that will be shipped to the United States by June 2014 will be used to evaluate this overlap crash test at Calspan’s facilities during the summer of 2014. This will be a definitive evaluation of the effectiveness of the design modifications incorporated into the e-Go EV vehicle. There is no assurance that the e-Go EV will pass this crash test in June 2014 or at any other time.
2050 Motors intends to import all vehicles completely fabricated and assembled in China from Aoxin Automobile. 2050 Motors will market the e-Go EV vehicles in designated markets and is not expected to need any raw materials, components or equipment, except spare parts which will be supplied by Aoxin Automobile. However, the e-Go EV and all of its parts and equipment must be DOT approved. After the demonstration vehicles are delivered to the USA, some of the existing parts of the e-Go EV may or may not meet DOT specifications. Aoxin Automobile has made every effort to build the e-Go EV according to American standards. However, there is no certainty that all the parts will be DOT approved. 2050 Motors may elect to secure replacement parts here in the USA or in China for installation either in the United States or in China, if required.
2050 Motors intends to initially sell the e-Go EV to a network of customers primarily in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. 2050 Motors plans to establish a service and parts center, which would be separate from the Showroom. The Showroom facility will be at an area with high volume of people in Las Vegas, were visitors to the city can directly view the e-Go EV. 2050 Motors may also elect to sell the e-Go EV at selected distributors in the Las Vegas Area, which have already provided letters of interest to sell our vehicles. 2050 Motors’ initial plan is not to sell the vehicle outside of the Las Vegas vicinity, consisting of an area within a radius of 100 miles. This is the Company’s current marketing plan in order to effectively market to and support people that work in Las Vegas and/or live in Las Vegas, which in Las Vegas metro area the population equals 1.9 million.

2050 Motors is a development stage company with no operating history and may never be able to carry out its business plan or achieve any revenues or profitability. 2050 Motors was established in October 2012 and it has not generated any revenues nor has it realized a profit from its operations to date, and there is little likelihood that it will generate any revenues or realize any profits in the short term. Any profitability in the future from its business will be dependent upon the successful marketing and sales of the e-Go EV. 2050 Motors may not be able to successfully carry out its business plan. There can be no assurance that it will ever achieve any revenues or profitability. Accordingly, its prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in establishing a new business, especially one in the automobile industry, and therefore it is a highly speculative venture involving significant financial risk.
We are completely dependent on Aoxin Automobile to supply us with the e-Go EV and other trucks and automobiles and parts and components thereto. The inability of Aoxin Automobile to continue to deliver, or their refusal to deliver such vehicles and parts at prices and volumes acceptable to us would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and operating results. Changes in business conditions, global financial instability, wars, governmental changes, and other factors beyond our control or which we do not presently anticipate, could also affect Aoxin Automobile’s ability to deliver vehicles and/or parts on a timely basis and cause material adverse consequences to 2050 Motors.
Research by Aoxin Automobile over the past five years developed this advanced all-electric vehicle. The e-Go EV is a five passenger sedan which weighs only 1,400 lbs with its battery pack included. It will be the first vehicle of this advanced type to be sold for distribution at a price of less than $35,000.
The body components are built out of carbon fiber which is five times stronger than steel and one third its weight constructed over a strong ultralight aluminum frame chassis and race car suspension. This ensures that the vehicle will be the safest and strongest ever built for the consumer market. It will also be the most efficient vehicle ever built, capable of achieving 200+ miles to the gallon energy equivalent.
2050 Motors projects expenses associated with its business over the remainder of 2014 to be approximately $385,000.
Costs and Resources
The Company believes that its current capital resources and current funding will enable it to maintain its current and planned operations through the next 6 months. The Company anticipates, however, that it will need to raise additional capital in order to sustain and grow its operations over the next few years.
To the extent that the Company’s capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, the Company will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and the Company does not anticipate that existing shareholders will provide any portion of the Company’s future financing requirements. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Results of Operation for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no revenues. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company incurred general and administrative expenses of $175,590 consisting primarily of operational expenses of 2050 Motors and professional fees related to preparation of the Company’s 10-K and 10-Q and acquisition costs relating to the reorganization with 2050 Motors. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 the Company incurred travel and professional expenses of $20,873. These operating expenses combined with a lack of revenues resulted in net losses of $175,590 and $20,873 for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of June 30, 2014 the Company had stockholders’ equity of $236,558 compared to a stockholders’ equity of $407,648 as of December 31, 2013.

Equity and Capital Resources
We have incurred losses since inception of our business and, as of June 30, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of $676,392. As of June 30, 2014, we had cash of $114,237 and working capital of $61,968.
To date, we have funded our operations through short-term debt and equity financing. Recently we borrowed $75,000 as an advance from our largest stockholder and in July, 2014, the Company closed a private placement with the receipt of aggregate proceeds of $293,425 from the sale of 838,357 shares of its common stock at $0.35 per share. The proceeds from the sale of equity were used to pay fees and expenses, to the extent that such expenses are not deferred, arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements and to continue to proceed with its business plan to market and sell electric automobiles.
We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operational expenses and the development of our automobile business. However, we do not expect to start generating revenues from our operations for another 12 months. Consequently, we are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which would have a material adverse affect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary amounts of additional capital or that our estimates of our capital requirements will prove to be accurate. As of the date of this Report we did not have any commitments from any source to provide such additional capital. Even if we are able to secure outside financing, it may not be available in the amounts or the times when we require. Furthermore, such financing would likely take the form of bank loans, private placement of debt or equity securities or some combination of these. The issuance of additional equity securities would dilute the stock ownership of current investors while incurring loans, leases or debt would increase our capital requirements and possible loss of valuable assets if such obligations were not repaid in accordance with their terms.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a “small reporting company” we are not required to provide this information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q, our President (principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of and the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer each concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to 2050 Motors, Inc. required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
In July, 2014, the Company sold 338,357 shares of its common stock to seven accredited investors, for gross proceeds of $293,425.
On July 10, 2014, the Company sold 500,000 of its common shares to two accredited investors for gross proceeds of $175,000. In addition the two investors were offered to purchase collectively an additional 1,500,000 shares for $0.35 per share for an aggregate amount of $525,000. The offer to purchase expires on October 8, 2014.
On July 9, 2014, the Company issued 32,000 shares for $11,200 of marketing services rendered to the Company.
We relied upon Section 4(2) and Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the issuances of the securities listed above. Each prospective investor was given the Company’s Form 10, Form 10-Q and Forms 8-k previously filed with the SEC. These filings included all material aspects of an investment in us, including the business, management, offering details, risk factors and consolidated financial statements. It is the belief of management that each of the individuals who invested has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment and therefore did not need the protections offered by registering their shares under Securities and Act of 1933, as amended. Each investor completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and/or Subscription Agreement whereby the investors certified that they were purchasing the shares for their own accounts, with investment intent. This offering was not accompanied by general advertisement or general solicitation and the share certificates were issued with a Rule 144 restrictive legend.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

4. LICENSE AGREEMENT
In 2012 and 2013, the Company made a total payment of $50,000 and signed an exclusive license agreement with Aoxin to import, assemble and manufacture the advanced carbon fiber electric vehicle, the e-Go EV model.
