The Company
 
DropCar Operating Business
 
The Company partners with top parking providers to get customers access to the best parking garages at the best rates via the Company’s mobile application (“App”).
 
In July 2018, the Company launched its mobility cloud platform which provides automotive-related businesses with a 100% self-serve SaaS version of its cloud-based Enterprise Vehicle Assistance and Logistic (“VAL”) platform to manage their own operations and drivers, as well as customer relationship management (“CRM”) tools that enable their clients to schedule and track their vehicles for service pickup and delivery. The Company’s mobility cloud also provides access to private application programming interfaces (“APIs”) which automotive-businesses can use to integrate the Company’s logistics and field support directly into their own applications and processes natively, to create more seamless client experiences. The Company earned de minimis revenues from Mobility Cloud during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
 
On the enterprise side, original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), dealers, and other service providers in the automotive space are increasingly being challenged with consumers who have limited time to bring in their vehicles for maintenance and service, making it difficult to retain valuable post-sale service contracts or scheduled consumer maintenance and service appointments. Additionally, many of the vehicle support centers for automotive providers (i.e., dealerships, including body work and diagnostic shops) have moved out of urban areas thus making it more challenging for OEMs and dealers in urban areas to provide convenient and efficient service for their consumer and business clientele. Similarly, shared mobility providers and other fleet managers, such as rental car companies and car share programs, face a similar urban mobility challenge: getting cars to and from service bays, rebalancing vehicle availability to meet demand in fleeting and de- fleeting vehicles to and from dealer lots, auction sites and to other locations.
 
In July 2018, the Company began assessing demand for a self-park spaces monthly parking plan (“Self-Park Spaces”) whereby consumers could designate specific garages for their vehicles to be stored at a base monthly rate, with personal 24/7 access for picking up and returning their vehicle directly, and the option to pay a la carte on a per hour basis for a driver to perform functions such as picking up and returning their vehicle to their front door. This model aligns more directly with how the Company has structured the enterprise Business-to-Business (“B2B”) side of its business, where an interaction with a vehicle on behalf of its drivers typically generates new revenue. The Company consumer Self-Park Spaces plan combined with its on-demand hourly valet service are the only consumer plans offered from September 1, 2018 onwards. Subscriber plans prior to this date continued to receive service on a prorated basis through the end of August 2018. Additionally, the Company is scaling back its DropCar 360 Services on Demand Service (“360 Services”) for the Consumer portion of the market. As a result of this shift, in August 2018, the Company began to significantly streamline its field teams, operations and back office support tied to its pre-September 1, 2018 consumer subscription plans. The scaling back of these services and the discontinuation of the Company’s monthly parking with front door valet (“Steve”) service resulted in a decrease in revenue.
 
To date, the Company operates primarily in the New York metropolitan area. In May, June, and August 2018, the Company expanded operations with its B2B business in San Francisco, Washington DC, and Los Angeles, respectively. These three new market expansions are with an OEM customer.
 
The COVID-19 outbreak, which surfaced in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and which was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has had a pronounced effect on the domestic and global economies. The Company’s business has been materially adversely impacted by the recent COVID-19 outbreak and may continue to be materially adversely impacted in the future. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity and action taken to contain or prevent further spread within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Merger with AYRO
 
On December 19, 2019, the Company, ABC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of DropCar (“ABC Merger Sub”), and Ayro, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AYRO”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “AYRO Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the AYRO Merger Agreement, ABC Merger Sub will merge with and into AYRO, with AYRO continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “AYRO Merger”). 
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the AYRO Merger Agreement, at the closing of the AYRO Merger, (a) each outstanding share of AYRO common stock and AYRO preferred stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock (the “DropCar Common Stock”) (after giving effect to a reverse stock split of DropCar Common Stock, as described below) equal to the exchange ratio described below; and (b) each outstanding AYRO stock option and AYRO warrant that has not previously been exercised prior to the closing of the AYRO Merger will be assumed by the Company.
 
Under the exchange ratio formula in the AYRO Merger Agreement, upon the closing of the AYRO Merger, on a pro forma basis and based upon the number of shares of DropCar common stock to be issued in the AYRO Merger, current shareholders of the Company (along with the Company’s financial advisor) will own approximately 20% of the combined company and current AYRO investors will own approximately 80% of the combined company (including the additional financing transaction referenced below). For purposes of calculating the exchange ratio, the number of outstanding shares of DropCar common stock immediately prior to the Merger does not take into effect the dilutive effect of shares of DropCar common stock underlying options, warrants or certain classes of preferred stock outstanding as of the date of the AYRO Merger Agreement.
 
If the AYRO merger is completed, holders of outstanding shares of AYRO common stock and preferred stock (collectively referred to herein as the AYRO equity holders) will be entitled to receive shares of DropCar common stock at an agreed upon exchange ratio per share of AYRO common stock they hold or into which their shares of preferred stock convert (the “AYRO Exchange Ratio”). Upon completion of the AYRO merger and the transactions contemplated in the AYRO Merger Agreement and assuming the exercise of the certain prefunded warrants, (i) AYRO equity holders (including the investors in the bridge financing, the AYRO private placements, and the nominal stock subscription and a consultant to AYRO) will own the majority of the outstanding equity of the Company. Immediately following the AYRO merger, subject to the approval of the Company’s current stockholders, it is anticipated that the combined company will effect a reverse stock split with respect to its issued and outstanding common stock. The reverse stock split will increase the Company’s stock price to at least $5.00 per share. 
 
Prior to the execution and delivery of the AYRO Merger Agreement, and as a condition of the willingness of the parties to enter into the AYRO Merger Agreement, certain stockholders have entered into agreements with AYRO pursuant to which such stockholders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of such agreements, to purchase, prior to the consummation of the AYRO Merger, shares of AYRO’s common stock (or common stock equivalents) and warrants to purchase AYRO’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2.0 million (the “AYRO Pre-Closing Financing”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreements is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the AYRO Merger Agreement. After consummation of the AYRO Merger, Ayro has agreed to cause the Company to register the resale of the DropCar Common Stock issued and issuable pursuant to the warrants issued to the investors in the AYRO Pre-Closing Financing.

Consummation of the AYRO Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among other things, approval by the stockholders of the Company and AYRO, the continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market after the AYRO Merger and satisfaction of minimum net cash thresholds by the Company and AYRO. The impact of the Company’s appeal to the Nasdaq Stock Market as discussed below and COVID-19 could negatively affect its stock price. In accordance with the terms of the AYRO Merger Agreement, (i) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of AYRO (solely in their respective capacities as AYRO stockholders) holding approximately 57% of the outstanding AYRO capital stock have entered into voting agreements with the Company to vote all of their shares of AYRO capital stock in favor of adoption of the AYRO Merger Agreement (the “AYRO Voting Agreements”) and (ii) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of the Company (solely in their respective capacities as stockholders of the Company) holding approximately 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock have entered into voting agreements with AYRO to vote all of their shares of the Company’s common stock in favor of approval of the AYRO Merger Agreement (the “DropCar Voting Agreements” and, together with the AYRO Voting Agreements, the “Voting Agreements”). The Voting Agreements include covenants with respect to the voting of such shares in favor of approving the transactions contemplated by the AYRO Merger Agreement and against any competing acquisition proposals.  In addition, concurrently with the execution of the AYRO Merger Agreement, (i) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of AYRO and (ii) certain directors of the Company have entered into or agreed to enter into lock-up agreements (the “Lock-Up Agreements”) pursuant to which they will accept certain restrictions on transfers of shares of the Company’s common stock for the one-year period following the closing of the AYRO Merger.
 
The AYRO Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both the Company and AYRO, and further provides that, upon termination of the AYRO Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, either party may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $1,000,000, or in some circumstances reimburse the other party’s reasonable expenses. 
 
At the effective time of the AYRO Merger, the Board of Directors of the combined company is expected to consist of seven members, three of whom will be directors designated by the Company’s board and will include Joshua Silverman, the Company’s current director and chairman of the board of directors, as chairman of the board of directors of the combined company, as well as Sebastian Giordano and Greg Schiffman, each of whom are current directors of the Company, Zvi Joseph, who is a current member of the Company’s Board of Directors, will be designated by Alpha Capital Anstalt, the lead investor in the AYRO private placement, and the three remaining directors will be the current directors of AYRO. It is anticipated that the AYRO designees will be Rodney C. Keller, Jr., George Devlin, and Mark Adams. The AYRO Merger Agreement contains certain provisions providing for the ability of AYRO to designate additional members upon the achievement of certain business milestones.
 
Discontinued Operations – DropCar Operating
 
On December 19, 2019 and concurrently upon entering in the AYRO Merger Agreement, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, DropCar Operating Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“DropCar Operating”), and DC Partners Acquisition, LLC (“DC Partners”), Spencer Richardson, the Company’s Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, and David Newman, the Company’s Co-Founder and Chief Business Development Officer, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell substantially all of the assets associated with its DropCar Operating business of providing vehicle support, fleet logistics and concierge services. The aggregate purchase price for the purchased assets consists of the cancellation of certain liabilities pursuant to those certain employment agreements by and between DropCar Operating and each of Mr. Richardson and Mr. Newman, plus the assumption of certain liabilities relating to or arising out of workers’ compensation claims that occurred prior to the closing date of the Asset Purchase Agreement. The sale of DropCar Operating represented a strategic shift that has had a major effect on the Company’s operations, and therefore, is presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows.

Completion of the Asset Purchase Agreement is subject to certain conditions, including customary closing conditions relating to the (i) consummation of a Change in Control (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), including the AYRO Merger and (ii) the receipt by the Company of the affirmative vote of the holders of the majority of the shares of DropCar common stock entitled to vote on such matters with respect to the matters contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement.
 
Trading of Company’s stock
 
The Company’s shares of common stock commenced trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market, on a post-reverse stock split adjusted basis, under the ticker symbol “DCAR” on January 31, 2018.
 
On September 6, 2019, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that it did not comply with the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Listing Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq listing rules, the Company was afforded 180 calendar days (until March 4, 2020) to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. On March 5, 2020, the Company received notification from the Listing Qualification Department of Nasdaq that it had not regained compliance with the Listing Rule. The notification indicated that the Company’s common stock would be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination. On March 12, 2020, the Company requested a hearing to appeal the determination with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which stayed the delisting of the Company’s securities pending the Panel’s decision. The hearing occurred on April 16, 2020.  The Company’s appeal to the Panel included a plan that set forth a commitment to consider all available options to regain compliance with the Listing Rule, including the option to effectuate a reverse stock split upon receipt of stockholder approval, which the Company intends to seek in connection with the joint proxy statement and consent solicitation statement/prospectus in connection with the AYRO Merger, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2020, in order to bring the Company’s stock price over the $1.00 bid price requirement and to meet the $4.00 bid price initial listing requirement. On April 27, 2020, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that the Panel had granted the Company’s request for continued listing, subject to the requirements that on or before May 29, 2020, the Company shall have completed the AYRO Merger and established compliance with all initial listing criteria outlined in Listing Rule 5505.  While the Company intends to complete the AYRO Merger and establish compliance prior to such date, there can be no assurance that DropCar will be successful in regaining compliance with the Listing Rule.
 
2.
Liquidity and Going Concern
 
The Company has a limited operating history and the sales and income potential of its business and market are unproven. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $35.8 million and has experienced net losses each year since its inception. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses into the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to continue. The Company’s cash is not sufficient to fund its operations through May 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.
 
Management’s plan includes raising funds from outside investors and consummating the AYRO Merger. However, there is no assurance that the AYRO Merger will be consummated or that outside funding will be available to the Company, or that outside funding will be obtained on favorable terms or will provide the Company with sufficient capital to meet its objectives. There have been recent outbreaks in several countries, including the United States, of the highly transmissible and pathogenic coronavirus. The outbreak of such communicable diseases could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect general commercial activity and the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States. An outbreak of communicable diseases, or the perception that such an outbreak could occur, and the measures taken by the governments of countries affected could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements included within the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020 and subsequently amended on April 10, 2020.
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 may not be indicative of results for the full year.
 
Significant Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Generally, matters subject to estimation and judgement include amounts related to accounts receivable realization, asset impairments, useful lives of property and equipment and capitalized software costs, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, and operating expense accruals. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, codified as ASC 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers.
 
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, the Company satisfies its performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to the customers. A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service. A performance obligation may be satisfied over time or at a point in time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring the Company’s progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the goods or services to the customer. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that the Company determines the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those promised goods or services (i.e., the “transaction price”). In determining the transaction price, the Company considers multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainties with respect to the amount are resolved. In determining when to include variable consideration in the transaction price, the Company considers the range of possible outcomes, the predictive value of its past experiences, the time period of when uncertainties expect to be resolved and the amount of consideration that is susceptible to factors outside of the Company’s influence, such as the judgment and actions of third parties.

The Company’s contracts are generally designed to provide cash fees to the Company on a monthly basis or an agreed upfront rate based upon demand services. The Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time as the service is provided continuously throughout the service period. The Company recognizes revenue evenly over the service period using a time-based measure because the Company is providing a continuous service to the customer. Contracts with minimum performance guarantees or price concessions include variable consideration and are subject to the revenue constraint. The Company uses an expected value method to estimate variable consideration for minimum performance guarantees and price concessions.
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. In periods when the Company has income, the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method, if required, pursuant to ASC 260 Earnings Per Share. The two-class method was required effective with the issuance of convertible preferred stock in the past because this class of stock qualified as a participating security, giving the holder the right to receive dividends should dividends be declared on common stock. Under the two-class method, earnings for a period are allocated on a pro rata basis to the common stockholders and to the holders of convertible preferred stock based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and number of shares that could be issued upon conversion. In periods of losses, diluted loss per share is computed on the same basis as basic loss per share as the inclusion of any other potential shares outstanding would be anti-dilutive. 
 
The following securities were excluded from weighted average diluted common shares outstanding because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards 
 
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements, which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements, and is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
Lease Agreements
 
The Company leases office space in New York City and Buenos Aires, Argentina on a month-to-month basis, with a condition of a 60-day notice to terminate. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, rent expense for the Company’s New York City and Buenos Aires offices was approximately $11,347 and $22,900, respectively, and included in loss from discontinued operations.
 
Litigation 
 
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business that it believes are incidental to the operation of its business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial positions or cash flows.
 
Other
 
As of January 1, 2019, the Company had accrued approximately $232,000 for the settlement of multiple employment disputes. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, approximately $39,000 of this amount was settled upon payment. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, $16,000 was expensed and accrued for settlements. As of March 31, 2019, approximately $209,000 remained accrued for the settlement of employment disputes. As of January 1, 2020, approximately $134,000 remained accrued as accounts payable and accrued expenses for the settlement of employment disputes. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately $40,000 was recorded as a reduction in loss from operations of discontinued component for the reversal of previously accrued settlements. Further, approximately $26,000 was settled upon payment. As of March 31, 2020, approximately $68,000 remains accrued as accounts payable and accrued expenses for the settlement of employment disputes.
  
On March 23, 2018, DropCar was made aware of an audit being conducted by the New York State Department of Labor (“DOL”) regarding a claim filed by an employee. The DOL is investigating whether DropCar properly paid overtime for which DropCar has raised several defenses. In addition, the DOL is conducting its audit to determine whether the Company owes spread of hours pay (an hour’s pay for each day an employee worked or was scheduled for a period over ten hours in a day). If the DOL determines that monies are owed, the DOL will seek a backpay order, which management believes will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on DropCar’s business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company expensed as loss from operations of discontinued component approximately $0 in relation to these matters. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has accrued as accounts payable and accrued expenses approximately $333,000 in relation to these matters.

The Company was a defendant in a class action lawsuit which resulted in a judgement entered into whereby the Company is required to pay legal fees in the amount of $45,000 to the plaintiff’s counsel. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $45,000 as current liabilities held for sale and loss from operations of discontinued component. As of March 31, 2020, the balance due remains $45,000.
 
On February 12, 2020, the Company received a notice from the New York State Department of Labor stating it has a negative balance in the experience rating account of approximately $165,000. The notice states the Company may make a voluntary payment of approximately $165,000. The Company does not expect to make this payment which will result in an increase to the future unemployment insurance rates. The Company will need to pay the max rate for a three-year period for not making the payment.

Stockholders’ Equity
 
Common Stock
 
On March 26, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain existing investors, pursuant to which the Company sold, in a registered public offering by the Company directly to the investors an aggregate of 478,469 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at an offering price of $4.18 per share for proceeds of $1,985,001 net of offering expenses of $15,000.
 
During the period ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued 1,412,420 shares of common stock from the conversion of 21,591 shares of Series H-4 Convertible Preferred stock.
 
During the period ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued 116,666 shares of common stock to a service provider and recorded $222,200 stock based compensation as a part of general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
 
During the period ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued 277,778 shares of common stock from the exercise of Series K warrants and received cash proceeds of $16,667.
 
During the period ended March 31, 2020, the Company issued 490,000 shares of common stock from the conversion of 4,900 shares of Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
Preferred Stock
 
In accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation, there are 5,000,000 authorized preferred shares at a par value of $ 0.0001. 
 
Series H Convertible Preferred Stock
 
Under the terms of the Series H Certificate of Designation, each share of the Company’s Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) has a stated value of $154 and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, equal to the stated value divided by the conversion price of $36.96 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits or dividends). The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 9.99%, in the aggregate, of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock calculated immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon such conversion.

In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Series H Preferred Stock are entitled, pari passu with the holders of common stock, to receive a payment in the amount the holder would receive if such holder converted the Series H Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment. As of March 31, 2020, such payment would be calculated as follows:
 
Number of Series H Preferred Stock outstanding

Multiplied by the stated value
 $154 
Equals the gross stated value
 $1,232

Under the terms of the Series H-3 Certificate of Designation, each share of the Series H-3 Preferred Stock has a stated value of $138 and is convertible into shares of common stock, equal to the stated value divided by the conversion price of $33.12 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and dividends).

In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Series H-3 Preferred Stock are entitled, pari passu with the holders of common stock, to receive a payment in the amount the holder would receive if such holder converted the Series H-3 Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment.

Series H-4 Convertible Preferred Stock
 
On March 8, 2018, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with investors pursuant to which the Company issued to the investors an aggregate of 25,472 shares of the Company’s Series H-4 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series H-4 Shares”) convertible into 424,533 shares of common stock of the Company, and warrants to purchase 424,533 shares of common stock of the Company, with an original exercise price of $15.60 per share (the “H-4 Exercise Price”), subject to adjustments (the “Series H-4 Warrants”). The purchase price per Series H-4 Preferred Stock and Series H-4 Warrant was $235.50, equal to (i) the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on March 7, 2018, plus $0.125 multiplied by (ii) 100. The aggregate purchase price for the Series H-4 Shares and Series H-4 Warrants was approximately $6.0 million. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the Series H-4 Warrants are immediately exercisable from the issuance date and are exercisable for a period of five years from the issuance date.
 
On March 8, 2018, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series H-4 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-4 Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing and designating the rights, powers and preferences of the Series H-4 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-4 Preferred Stock”). The Company designated up to 30,000 shares of Series H-4 Preferred Stock and each share has a stated value of $235.50 (the “H-4 Stated Value”). Each share of Series H-4 Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into a number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the H-4 Stated Value by the original conversion price of $14.13 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to a 9.99% blocker provision. The Series H-4 Preferred Stock has the same dividend rights as the common stock, and no voting rights except as provided for in the Series H-4 Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Series H-4 Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock in the distribution of assets, to the extent legally available for distribution.
 
The holders of Series H-4 Preferred Stock are entitled to certain anti-dilution adjustments if the Company issues shares of its common stock at a lower price per share than the applicable conversion price of the Series H-4 Preferred Stock. If any such dilutive issuance occurs prior to the conversion of the Series H-4 Preferred Stock, the conversion price will be adjusted downward to a price equal to the issuance (subject to a floor of $2.826 per share). On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with certain investors to exercise Series H-4 Warrants and issue Series J warrants which resulted in a reduced conversion price of $3.60 per share for the Series H-4 Preferred Stock. See “Exercise of Series H-4 Warrants and Issuance of Series J Warrants” below. On December 6, 2019, the Company entered into Series H-5 securities purchase agreement, causing the Conversion Price to decrease from $3.60 per share to $2.826 per share.
 
If at any time (i) the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock exceeds $35.10 for not less than ten (10) consecutive Trading Days (the “Mandatory Exercise Measuring Period”); (ii) the daily average number of shares of common stock traded during the Mandatory Exercise Measuring Period equals or exceeds 25,000; and (iii) no equity conditions failure has occurred as of such date, then the Company shall have the right to require the holder to exercise all or any portion of the Series H-4 Warrants still unexercised for a cash exercise.
 
In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Series H-4 Preferred Stock are entitled, pari passu with the holders of common stock, to receive a payment in the amount the holder would receive if such holder converted the Series H-4 Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment. As of March 31, 2020, such payment would be calculated as follows:

On December 6, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with investors pursuant to which the Company issued to the investors an aggregate of 34,722 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series H-5 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series H-5 Preferred Stock”) convertible into 3,472,200 shares of common stock of the Company. The purchase price per Series H-5 Preferred Stock was $72.00, equal to (i) the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 5, 2019, plus $0.125 multiplied by (ii) 100. The aggregate purchase price for the Series H-5 Preferred Stock was approximately $2.5 million.
 
December 6, 2019, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series H-5 Preferred Stock (the “H-5 Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing and designating the rights, powers and preferences of the Series H-5 Preferred Stock. The Company designated up to 50,000 shares of Series H-5 Preferred Stock and each share has a stated value of $72.00 (the “H-5 Stated Value”). Each share of Series H-5 Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into a number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the H-5 Stated Value by the conversion price of $0.72 per share, subject to a 9.99% blocker provision. The Series H-5 Preferred Stock has the same dividend rights as the common stock, and no voting rights except as provided for in the H-5 Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Series H-5 Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock in the distribution of assets, to the extent legally available for distribution.
 
Exchange of Series H-5 Preferred Stock for Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock
 
On February 5, 2020 the Company entered into separate Exchange Agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with the holders of existing Series H-5 Preferred Stock, to exchange an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-6 Preferred Stock”), par value $0.0001 per share (the “Exchange”). The purpose of the exchange was to include voting rights. The Company accounted for the Exchange as a modification which resulted in no impact to the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
 
On February 5, 2020, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock (the “Series H-6 Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing and designating the rights, powers and preferences of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock. The Company designated up to 50,000 shares of Series H-6 Preferred Stock and each share has a stated value of $72.00 (the “H-6 Stated Value”). Each share of Series H-6 Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into a number of shares of common stock of the Company determined by dividing the H-6 Stated Value by the initial conversion price of $0.72 per share, subject to a 9.99% blocker provision. The Series H-6 Preferred Stock has the same dividend rights as the common stock, except as provided for in the Series H-6 Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law. The Series H-6 Preferred Stock also has the same voting rights as the common stock, except that in no event shall a holder of Series H-6 Preferred Stock be permitted to exercise a greater number of votes than such holder would have been entitled to cast if the Series H-6 Preferred Stock had immediately been converted into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.78 (subject to adjustment). In addition, a holder (together with its affiliates) may not be permitted to vote Series H-6 Preferred Stock held by such holder to the extent that such holder would beneficially own more than 9.99% of our common stock. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution, the Series H-6 Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock in the distribution of assets, to the extent legally available for distribution.
 
The holders of Series H-6 Preferred Stock are entitled to certain anti-dilution adjustments if the Company issues shares of its common stock at a lower price per share than the applicable conversion price of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock. If any such dilutive issuance occurs prior to the conversion of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock, the conversion price will be adjusted downward to a price that cannot be less than 20% of the exercise price or $0.1584.

The Series I Warrants have an exercise price of $13.80 per share. If at any time (i) the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock exceeds $27.60 for not less than the mandatory exercise measuring period; (ii) the daily average number of shares of Common Stock traded during the mandatory exercise measuring period equals or exceeds 25,000; and (iii) no equity conditions failure has occurred as of such date, then the Company shall have the right to require the holder to exercise all or any portion of the Series I Warrants still unexercised for a cash exercise.
 
Exercise of Series H-4 Warrants and Issuance of Series J Warrants
 
On March 8, 2018, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 447,383 shares of common stock (the “Series H-4 Warrants”). The Series H-4 Warrants were initially exercisable at an exercise price equal to $15.60 per share. On August 31, 2018, the Company offered (the “Repricing Offer Letter”) to the holders (the “Holders”) of Series H-4 Warrants the opportunity to exercise such Series H-4 Warrants for cash at a reduced exercise price of $3.60 per share (the “Reduced Exercise Price”) provided such Series H-4 Warrants were exercised for cash on or before September 4, 2018 (the “End Date”). In addition, the Company issued a “reload” warrant (the “Series J Warrants”) to each Holder who exercised their Series H-4 Warrants prior to the End Date, covering one share for each Series H-4 Warrant exercised during that period. The terms of the Series J Warrants are substantially identical to the terms of the Series H-4 Warrants except that (i) the exercise price is equal to $6.00, (ii) the Series J Warrants may be exercised at all times beginning on the 6-month anniversary of the issuance date on a cash basis and also on a cashless basis, (iii) the Series J Warrants do not contain any provisions for anti-dilution adjustment and (iv) the Company has the right to require the Holders to exercise all or any portion of the Series J Warrants still unexercised for a cash exercise if the volume-weighted average price (as defined in the Series J Warrant) for the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $9.00 for not less than ten consecutive trading days.

On September 4, 2018, the Company received executed Repricing Offer Letters from a majority of the Holders, which resulted in the issuance of 260,116 shares of the Company’s common stock and Series J Warrants to purchase up to 260,116 shares of the Company’s common stock.
  
On November 15, 2018, the Company obtained shareholder approval to reduce the exercise price from $15.60 per share to $3.60 per share for 187,267 Series H-4 Warrants.
 
The Series H-4 Warrants contain anti-dilution price protection that was triggered on December 6, 2019 upon the issuance of the series H-5 Warrants (as defined below), causing the exercise price to decrease from $3.60 per share to $3.12 per share.

Overview
 
Strategy
 
Prior to January 30, 2018, DropCar was a privately-held provider of automotive vehicle support, fleet logistics and concierge services for both consumers and the automotive industry. In 2015, we launched our cloud-based Enterprise Vehicle Assistance and Logistics (“VAL”) platform and mobile application (“App”) to assist consumers and automotive-related companies reduce the costs, hassles and inefficiencies of owning a car, or fleet of cars, in urban centers. Our VAL platform is a web-based interface to our core service that coordinates the movements and schedules of trained valets who pickup and drop off cars at dealerships and customer locations. The App tracks progress and provides email and/or text notifications on status to customers, increasing the quality of communication and subsequent satisfaction with the service. To date, we operate primarily in the New York metropolitan area and may expand our territory in the future.
 
We achieve this balance of increased consumer flexibility and lower consumer cost by aggregating demand for parking and other automotive services and redistributing their fulfillment to partners in the city and on city outskirt areas that have not traditionally had access to lucrative city business. Beyond the immediate unit economic benefits of securing bulk discounts from vendor partners, we believe there is significant opportunity to further provide additional products and services to clients across the vehicle lifecycle.
 
 On the enterprise side, original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), dealers, and other service providers in the automotive space are increasingly being challenged with consumers who have limited time to bring in their vehicles for maintenance and service, making it difficult to retain valuable post-sale service contracts or scheduled consumer maintenance and service appointments. Additionally, many of the vehicle support centers for automotive providers (i.e., dealerships, including body work and diagnostic shops) have moved out of urban areas thus making it more challenging for OEMs and dealers in urban areas to provide convenient and efficient service for their consumer and business clientele. Similarly, shared mobility providers and other fleet managers, such as rental car companies, face a similar urban mobility challenge: getting cars to and from service bays, rebalancing vehicle availability to meet demand and getting vehicles from dealer lots to fleet locations.
 
We are able to offer our enterprise services at a fraction of the cost of alternatives, including other third parties or expensive in-house resources, given our pricing model that reduces and/or eliminates any downtime expense while also giving clients access to a network of trained valets on demand that can be scaled up or down based on the real time needs of the enterprise client. We support this model by maximizing the utilization of our employee-valet workforce across a curated pipeline for both the consumer and business network.
 
While our business-to-business (“B2B”) and business-to-consumer (“B2C”) services generate revenue and help meet the unmet demand for vehicle support services, we are also building-out a platform and customer base that positions us well for developments in the automotive space where vehicle ownership becomes more car-shared or access based with transportation services and concierge options well-suited to match a customer’s immediate needs. For example, certain car manufacturers are testing new services in which customers pay the manufacturer a flat fee per month to drive a number of different models for any length of time. We believe that our unique blend of B2B and B2C services make us well suited to introduce, and provide the services necessary to execute, this next generation of automotive subscription services.

COVID-19-Related Considerations
 
The COVID-19 outbreak, which surfaced in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and which was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has had a pronounced effect on the domestic and global economies. Our business has been materially adversely impacted by the recent COVID-19 outbreak and may continue to be materially adversely impacted in the future. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity and action taken to contain or prevent further spread within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
 
Merger with AYRO
 
On December 19, 2019, we entered into the AYRO Merger Agreement with ABC Merger Sub, and AYRO, pursuant to which, among other matters, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the AYRO Merger Agreement, ABC Merger Sub will merge with and into AYRO, with AYRO continuing as our wholly owned subsidiary and the surviving corporation of the AYRO Merger.  The AYRO Merger is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the AYRO Merger Agreement, at the closing of the AYRO Merger, (a) each outstanding share of AYRO common stock and AYRO preferred stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of our common stock (after giving effect to a reverse stock split of our common stock, as described below) equal to the Exchange Ratio described below; and (b) each outstanding AYRO stock option and AYRO warrant that has not previously been exercised prior to the closing of the AYRO Merger will be assumed by us.
 
Under the exchange ratio formula in the AYRO Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), upon the closing of the AYRO Merger, on a pro forma basis and based upon the number of shares of our common stock to be issued in the AYRO Merger, our current shareholders (along with our financial advisor) will own approximately 20% of the combined company and current AYRO investors will own approximately 80% of the combined company (including the additional financing transaction referenced below). For purposes of calculating the Exchange Ratio, the number of outstanding shares of our common stock immediately prior to the AYRO Merger does not take into effect the dilutive effect of shares of our common stock underlying options, warrants or certain classes of preferred stock outstanding as of the date of the AYRO Merger Agreement.
 
In connection with the AYRO Merger, we will seek the approval of our stockholders to amend our certificate of incorporation to: (i) effect a reverse split of our common stock at a ratio to be determined by us, which is intended to ensure that the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, or such other stock market on which our common stock is trading, are satisfied and (ii) change our name to AYRO, Inc., subject to the consummation of the AYRO Merger.
 
Prior to the execution and delivery of the AYRO Merger Agreement, and as a condition of the willingness of the parties to enter into the AYRO Merger Agreement, certain stockholders have entered into agreements with AYRO pursuant to which such stockholders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of such agreements, to purchase, prior to the consummation of the AYRO Merger, shares of AYRO’s common stock (or common stock equivalents) and warrants to purchase AYRO 's common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2.0 million (the “AYRO Pre-Closing Financing”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreements is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the AYRO Merger Agreement. After consummation of the AYRO Merger, AYRO has agreed to cause us to register the resale of our common stock issued and issuable pursuant to the warrants issued to the investors in the AYRO Pre-Closing Financing.
 
 
25
 
 
Consummation of the AYRO Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among other things, approval by our stockholders and the stockholders of AYRO, the continued listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market after the AYRO Merger and satisfaction of minimum net cash thresholds by us and AYRO.  In accordance with the terms of the AYRO Merger Agreement, (i) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of AYRO (solely in their respective capacities as AYRO stockholders) holding approximately 57% of the outstanding AYRO capital stock have entered into voting agreements with us to vote all of their shares of AYRO capital stock in favor of adoption of the AYRO Merger Agreement (the “AYRO Voting Agreements”) and (ii) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of ours (solely in their respective capacities as our stockholders) holding approximately 10% of the outstanding our common stock have entered into voting agreements with AYRO to vote all of their shares of our common stock in favor of approval of the AYRO Merger Agreement (the “DropCar Voting Agreements”, and together with the AYRO Voting Agreements, the “Voting Agreements”).  The Voting Agreements include covenants with respect to the voting of such shares in favor of approving the transactions contemplated by the AYRO Merger Agreement and against any competing acquisition proposals.  In addition, concurrently with the execution of the AYRO Merger Agreement, (i) certain executive officers, directors and stockholders of AYRO and (ii) certain directors of ours have entered or agreed to enter into lock-up agreements (the “Lock-Up Agreements”) pursuant to which they will accept certain restrictions on transfers of shares of our common stock for the one-year period following the closing of the AYRO Merger.
 
The AYRO Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both us and AYRO, and further provides that, upon termination of the AYRO Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, either party may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $1,000,000, or in some circumstances reimburse the other party’s reasonable expenses. 
 
At the effective time of the AYRO Merger, our Board of Directors is expected to consist of seven members, three of whom will be directors designated by our board and will include Joshua Silverman, our current director and chairman of the board, as chairman of the board of directors of the combined company, as well as Sebastian Giordano and Greg Schiffman, each of whom are current directors of ours, Zvi Joseph, who is a current member of our board of directors, will be designated by Alpha Capital Anstalt, the lead investor in the AYRO private placement, and the three remaining directors will be the current directors of AYRO. It is anticipated that the AYRO designees will be Rodney C. Keller, Jr., George Devlin, and Mark Adams. The AYRO Merger Agreement contains certain provisions providing for the ability of AYRO to designate additional members upon the achievement of certain business milestones. As a condition to the consummation of the AYRO Merger, we will immediately prior to the AYRO Merger enter into an executive employment agreement with Rodney Keller, the current chief executive officer of AYRO.
 
Simultaneously with the execution of the AYRO Merger Agreement, AYRO entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, dated December 19, 2019 (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among AYRO and the financial institutions and individuals signatories thereto, pursuant to which, on December 19, 2019, AYRO received aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the aggregate obligations of AYRO under the Loan Agreement are to automatically, immediately prior to the consummation of the AYRO Merger, convert into shares of AYRO common stock, subject to the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, upon conversion of the term loans made by the investors subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, AYRO is required to cause us to issue each bridge investor warrants to purchase our common stock. Upon consummation of the AYRO Merger, AYRO has agreed to cause us to register the resale of the warrant shares.
 
In connection with the AYRO Merger, AYRO entered into the Stock Subscription Agreement with an accredited investor, pursuant to which, immediately prior to the AYRO Merger, AYRO will issue up to an aggregate of 1,750,000 shares of AYRO common stock for the nominal per share purchase price of $0.001 per share, or, if applicable, pre-funded warrants to purchase AYRO common stock, in lieu of AYRO common stock. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Subscription Agreement is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the AYRO Merger Agreement.

Discontinued Operations – DropCar Operating
 
On December 19, 2019 and concurrently upon entering in the AYRO Merger Agreement, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (“Asset Purchase Agreement”) by and among us, DropCar Operating Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and DropCar Operating, and DC Partners, Spencer Richardson, our Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, and David Newman, our Co-Founder and Chief Business Development Officer , pursuant to which we agreed to sell substantially all of the assets associated with our DropCar Operating business of providing vehicle support, fleet logistics and concierge services. The aggregate purchase price for the purchased assets consists of the cancellation of certain liabilities pursuant to those certain employment agreements by and between DropCar Operating and each of Mr. Richardson and Mr. Newman, plus the assumption of certain liabilities relating to or arising out of workers’ compensation claims that occurred prior to the closing date of the Asset Purchase Agreement. The sale of DropCar Operating represented a strategic shift that has had a major effect on our operations, and therefore, was presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows.
 
Our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
 
Our financial statements as of March 31, 2020 were prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies, reduce expenditures, and, ultimately, to generate additional revenue. We cannot assure you, however, that we will be able to achieve any of the foregoing.
 
There have been recent outbreaks in several countries, including the United States, of the highly transmissible and pathogenic coronavirus. The outbreak of such communicable diseases could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect general commercial activity and the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States. An outbreak of communicable diseases, or the perception that such an outbreak could occur, and the measures taken by the governments of countries affected could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 
Recent Developments
 
Nasdaq Hearing
 
On September 6, 2019, we received notification from Nasdaq stating that we did not comply with the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Listing Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq listing rules, we were afforded 180 calendar days (until March 4, 2020) to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. On March 5, 2020, we received notification from the Listing Qualification Department of Nasdaq that we had not regained compliance with the Listing Rule. The notification indicated that our common stock would be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market unless we requested an appeal of this determination. On March 12, 2020, we requested a hearing to appeal the determination with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which stayed the delisting of our securities pending the Panel’s decision. The hearing occurred on April 16, 2020.  Our appeal to the Panel included a plan that set forth a commitment to consider all available options to regain compliance with the Listing Rule, including the option to effectuate a reverse stock split upon receipt of stockholder approval, which we intend to seek in connection with the joint proxy statement and consent solicitation statement/prospectus in connection with the AYRO Merger, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2020, in order to bring our stock price over the $1.00 bid price requirement and to meet the $4.00 bid price initial listing requirement. On April 27, 2020, we received notice from Nasdaq that the Panel had granted our request for continued listing, subject to the requirements that on or before May 29, 2020, we shall have completed the AYRO Merger and established compliance with all initial listing criteria outlined in Listing Rule 5505.  While we intend to complete the AYRO Merger and establish compliance prior to such date, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in regaining compliance with the Listing Rule.

Exchange Agreements
 
On February 5, 2020, we entered into separate exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with the holders of existing Series H-5 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-5 Preferred Stock”), par value $0.0001 per share, to exchange an equivalent number of shares of our Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-6 Preferred Stock”), par value $0.0001 per share (the “Exchange”). The Exchange closed on February 5, 2020. The purpose of the exchange was to include voting rights.
 
On February 5, 2020, we filed the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-6 Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing and designating the rights, powers and preferences of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock. We designated up to 50,000 shares of Series H-6 Preferred Stock and each share has a stated value of $72.00 (the “H-6 Stated Value”). Each share of Series H-6 Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into a number of shares of common stock of the Company determined by dividing the H-6 Stated Value by the initial conversion price of $0.72 per share, subject to a 9.99% blocker provision. The Series H-6 Preferred Stock has the same dividend rights as the common stock, except as provided for in the Series H-6 Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law. The Series H-6 Preferred Stock also has the same voting rights as the common stock, except that in no event shall a holder of Series H-6 Preferred Stock be permitted to exercise a greater number of votes than such holder would have been entitled to cast if the Series H-6 Preferred Stock had immediately been converted into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.78 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events). In addition, a holder (together with its affiliates) may not be permitted to vote Series H-6 Preferred Stock held by such holder to the extent that such holder would beneficially own more than 9.99% of our common stock. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution, the Series H-6 Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock in the distribution of assets, to the extent legally available for distribution.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 – Continuing Operations
 
General and Administrative
 
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled $0.8 million, an increase of $0.1 million, compared to $0.7 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This was primarily attributable to an increase of less than $0.1 million in stock-based compensation and $0.1 million in other legal, professional and public company costs.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we had net losses from continuing operations of approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020, we had an accumulated deficit of $35.8 million. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses into the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to continue. At March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million. At these capital levels, we believe we do not have sufficient funds to continue to operate for a 12 month period from the date of the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, by which point we will need to become profitable, improve cash flow from operations, begin selling property and equipment, or complete a new capital raise. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Our operations may be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on our financial position, operations and cash flows. Possible areas that may be affected include, but are not limited to, disruption to our customers and revenue, labor workforce, and the decline in value of assets held by us, including, property and equipment and capitalized software.
 
On February 12, 2020, we received a notice from the New York State Department of Labor stating we have a negative balance in our experience rating account of approximately $165,000. The notice states we may make a voluntary payment of approximately $165,000. We do not expect to make this payment which will result in an increase to our future unemployment insurance rates. We will need to pay the max rate for a three-year period for not making the payment.
 
 
29
 
 
On April 8, 2020, DropCar Operating entered into a U.S. Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) promissory note in the principal amount of $345,294 payable to Chase Bank (the “Bank”) evidencing a PPP loan from the Bank (the “PPP Loan”). Our Board of Directors is currently evaluating whether to return any of the PPP Loan funds in connection with its review of our financing needs and the financing needs of DropCar Operating.
 
Our plans include raising funds from outside investors and consummating the AYRO Merger. However, there is no assurance that the AYRO merger will be consummated, outside funding will be available to us, outside funding will be obtained on favorable terms or will provide us with sufficient capital to meet our objectives. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As such, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption the Company will continue as a going concern.
 
Cash Flows
 
Operating Activities – Continuing Operations
 
We have historically experienced negative cash outflows. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are the costs associated with continuing as a public company.
 
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was approximately $0.6 million, which includes a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $0.8 million, offset by cash provided by a change in net working capital items of $0.2 million related to the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.2 million and the decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of less than $0.1 million. 
 
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately $1.0 million, which includes a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $0.6 million, partially offset by non-cash expenses of less than $0.1 million related to stock-based compensation expense, and cash used from the change in net working capital items of $0.3 million principally related to the decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.3 million and the increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of less than $0.1 million.
 
Investing Activities – Continuing Operations
 
There were no cash flows from investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
 
Financing Activities – Continuing Operations
 
There were no cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 totaled approximately $2.0 million, primarily resulting from proceeds of $2.0 million from the sale of the common stock.
  
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We did not engage in any “off-balance sheet arrangements” (as that term is defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) and do not have any holdings in variable interest entities as of March 31, 2020.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
 
Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, including the CEO and CFO, evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2020. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.
 
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on management’s assessment, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020 as a result of the material weaknesses described below:
 
A.
Control environment, control activities and monitoring:
 
The Company did not design and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting related to control environment, control activities and monitoring based on the criteria established in the COSO Framework including more specifically:
 
Competency of resources: Management did not effectively execute a strategy to hire, train and retain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of training, knowledge and experience in certain areas important to financial reporting; and
Deployment and oversight of control activities: Management did not implement effective oversight to support deployment of control activities due to (a) failure to establish clear accountability for the performance of internal control over financial reporting responsibilities in certain areas important to financial reporting and (b) a limited segregation of duties amongst Company employees with respect to the Company’s control activities, primarily as a result of the Company’s limited number of employees.
 
B.
Review of the Financial Reporting Process:
 
The Company did perform an adequate review of the financial reporting process (i.e., untimely accounting for certain significant transactions, inadequate review of journal entries, and financial statements and related footnotes) which resulted in material corrected misstatements and disclosure adjustments.
 
Remediation Efforts
 
Management is committed to the remediation of the material weaknesses described above, as well as the continued improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. We have identified and implemented, and continue to implement, the actions described below to remediate the underlying causes of the control deficiencies that gave rise to the material weaknesses. As we continue our evaluation and improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may modify the actions described below or identify and take additional measures to address control deficiencies. Until the remediation efforts described below, including any additional measures management identifies as necessary, are completed, the material weaknesses described above will continue to exist.
 
To address the material weakness noted above, the Company is in the process of:
 
hiring additional personnel who possess the requisite skillsets in certain areas important to financial reporting;
assessing the required training needs to ascertain continuous development of existing personnel;
performing a comprehensive review of current procedures to ensure a lack of segregation of duties and compliance with the Company’s accounting policies and GAAP;
hiring additional personnel in order to mitigate the risk of a lack of segregation of duties.
 
 
31
 
 
We believe these measures will remediate the material weaknesses noted. While we have completed some of these measures as of the date of this report, we have not completed and tested all of the planned corrective processes, enhancements, procedures and related evaluation that we believe are necessary to determine whether the material weaknesses have been fully remediated. We believe the corrective actions and controls need to be in operation for a sufficient period of time for management to conclude that the control environment is operating effectively and has been adequately tested through audit procedures. Accordingly, the material weaknesses have not been fully remediated as of the date of this report. As we continue to evaluate and work to remediate the control deficiencies that gave rise to the material weaknesses, we may determine that additional measures or time are required to address the control deficiencies or that we need to modify or otherwise adjust the remediation measures described above. We will continue to assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting.
 
(b)
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
Our remediation efforts were ongoing during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. Other than the remediation steps described above and the appointment of our Chief Financial Officer described above, there were no other material changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
 
There have been no material changes to the legal proceedings disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
 
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020 and as amended on April 10, 2020.
 
The recent COVID-19 outbreak has had and may continue to have an adverse effect our business operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flow.
 
The COVID-19 outbreak, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020 and has rapidly spread throughout the United States and many other parts of the world, is having an impact on the global economy, resulting in rapidly changing market and economic conditions. Our business has been materially adversely impacted by the recent COVID-19 outbreak due to restrictions on travel, the loss of B2B clients who have suspended or reduced operations as a result of the pandemic and the loss of B2C clients as residents have moved away from densely populated areas or found alternate parking arrangements. This has had and may continue to have a materially adverse impact on our cash flows from operations and liquidity. Ongoing significant reductions in business related activities could result in further loss of sales and profits and other material adverse effects. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity and action taken to contain or prevent further spread within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. As the outbreak of COVID-19 continues to spread rapidly in the U.S. and globally, related government and private sector responsive actions may continue to adversely affect our business operations. It is impossible to predict the effect and ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as the situation is rapidly evolving. If the COVID-19 outbreak continues and persists for an extended period of time, we expect there will be significant and material disruptions to our operations, which will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
 
None.
 
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.
 
None.
 
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 5. Other Information.
 
PPP Loan
 
On April 8, 2020, DropCar Operating entered into a U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) promissory note in the principal amount of $345,294 payable to Chase Bank (the “Bank”) evidencing a PPP loan from the Bank (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan will bear interest at a rate of 0.98% per annum. No payments will be due on the PPP Loan during a six month deferral period commencing on April 8, 2020. Commencing one month after the expiration of the deferral period, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter until the maturity date of the PPP Loan, DropCar Operating will be obligated to make monthly payments of principal and interest, each in such equal amount required to fully amortize the principal amount outstanding on the PPP Loan by the maturity date. The maturity date is April 8, 2022.
 
The principal amount of the PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness under the PPP upon DropCar Operating’s request to the extent that PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the PPP, including payroll, rent, and utilities. The Bank may forgive interest accrued on any principal forgiven if the SBA pays the interest. There can be no assurance that any part of the PPP Loan will be forgiven. The PPP Loan contains customary borrower default provisions and lender remedies, including the right of the Bank to require immediate repayment in full the outstanding principal balance of the PPP Loan with accrued interest.
 
The Board of Directors of the Company is currently evaluating whether to return any of the PPP Loan funds in connection with its review of the financing needs of each of the Company and DropCar Operating. The Company intends to provide an update once the Board of Directors reaches its decision.
