NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Coroware, Inc. (“CoroWare” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K and prior reports for 2008.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CoroWare Technologies, Inc. (“CTI”), Innova Robotics, Inc. (“IR”), Robotic Workspace Technologies, Inc. (“RWT”), and Robotics Software Service, Inc. (“RSS”) (Herein are referred to as the “Subsidiaries”).  In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 as reported in Form 10-K have been omitted.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted EITF 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The adoption of this pronouncement required the Company to perform additional analyses on both its freestanding equity derivatives and embedded equity derivative features. The adoption of EITF 07-05 affected the Company’s accounting for the warrants associated with the $600,000 convertible debenture resulting in the Company recording a derivative liability of $4,379 representing the fair value of the warrants as of January 1, 2009.  EITF 07-5 requires the Company to recognize the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.

Reclassifications:

Certain 2008 balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

NOTE 3 – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND GOING CONCERN

The Company has incurred losses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 of $2,064,835 and $910,406, respectively. Because of these losses, the Company will require additional working capital to develop its business operations.

The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the use of private placements, public offerings, bank financing and/or related party financings.

There are no assurances that the Company will be able to either (1) achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or (2) obtain additional financing through either private placements, public offerings, bank financing and/or related party financing necessary to support the Company's working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations, any private placements, public offerings, bank financing and/or related party financings are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE DEBT

The following table illustrates the carrying value of convertible debt at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008:

The following tables illustrate the fair value adjustments that were recorded related to the derivative financial instruments associated with the convertible debenture financings:   

The following table illustrates the components of derivative liabilities at March 31, 2009:

The following table summarizes the number of common shares indexed to the derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2009:

The Company’s determination of the number of shares indexed to the $2,825,000 and the $600,000 financings as of December 31, 2008 are materially impacted by the use of par value as a conversion rate “floor”. The actual terms of the financings call for a conversion rate of the lower of $.02 or 85% of the 30-day VWAP. However, 85% of the 30-day VWAP at December 31, 2008 is less than par and, consistent with redemptions which took place during 2008, par was used as the floor conversion rate due to the impact of state securities law which may not allow for issuance of shares at less than par value. Had the indexed share been calculated using the 30 day VWAP, the number of indexed shares would be materially higher and, as a result, so would the associated derivative liability.

Warrants issued in connection with the $600,000 financing have an embedded derivative feature (full-ratchet anti-dilution provision).   Emerging Issues Task Force EITF 07-5 requires reclassification of the warrants to liabilities at fair value on January 1, 2009 and subsequent reporting of the change in fair value.   The valuation for 21,875,000 warrants with embedded features was $4,379 on January 1, 2009 and $13,125 on March 31, 2009.   $4,379 was reclassified from the accumulated deficit account to the derivative liabilities account on January 1, 2009.  For the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the change in fair value of this component of the derivative instruments was $8,746 and recorded as an increase in the derivative liability account and as an expense.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or "continue," the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, such should not be regarded as a representation by Coroware, Inc., or any other person, that such forward-looking statements will be achieved. The business and operations of Coroware, Inc. are subject to substantial risks, which increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained in this report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2008:

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 (the "2009 Period") revenues were $657,989 compared to revenues of $778,276 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 (the "2008 Period"). Our revenues decreased as we continue to see customers delay or reduce spending on software development, multimedia production and infrastructure deployments.  

Cost of revenues was $415,488 and $619,028 for the 2009 Period compared to the 2008 Period, respectively. Cost of revenues sold represents primarily labor and labor-related costs in addition to overhead costs.  Management made a concerted effort during the second half of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009 to reduce staffing levels that helped to reduce our cost of sales and increase our gross profit.  Gross profit on these 2009 revenues amounted to $242,501 compared to $159,248 for the 2008 Period revenues.

Operating expenses were $301,235 during the 2009 Period compared to $686,008 during the 2008 Period.  Selling, general and administrative operating expenses were significantly lower in the 2009 Period due to the substantial reduction in costs related to officers’ salaries, rent and related expenses, travel and entertainment.

7

Loss from continuing operations before other income was $58,734 during the 2009 Period compared to $526,760 in the 2008 Period.  We believe the reduction in this loss to be a direct result of our cost cutting measures.  

Loss from continuing operations was $2,064,835 during the 2009 Period compared to loss of $906,133 in the 2008 Period.  Included in this loss is other income (expense) of $2,006,101 for the 2009 Period and $379,373 for the 2008 Period.  This other income (expense) is comprised primarily of derivative expense and amortization of debt discount and deferred finance costs.  The increase in the derivative expense is a direct result of the increase in our stock price ($0.0001 at December 31, 2008 versus $0.0006 at March 31, 2009).  The embedded conversion features associated with our convertible debentures are valued based on the number of shares that are indexed to that liability. Keeping the number of shares constant, the liability associated with the embedded conversion features increases as our share price increases and, likewise, decreases when our share price decreases.   Even through the share prices are sub-penny, the effect on the derivative liability is significant as the liability increases six times with an increase in the share price from $0.0001 at December 31, 2008 versus $0.0006 at March 31, 2009.

Loss from discontinued operations was $0 during the 2009 period compared to a loss of $4,273 in the 2008 period.

Weighted average shares outstanding were 878,752,920 during the 2009 Period compared to 136,663,873 in the 2008 Period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2009, we had current assets of $199,853, current liabilities of $6,092,406, negative working capital of $5,892,553 and an accumulated deficit of $21,294,786.

We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding. We will still need additional capital in order to continue operations until we are able to achieve positive operating cash flow. Additional capital is being sought, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain such investments. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.

However, even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The following table sets forth the contractual obligations of the Company as of December 31, 2008:

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (the principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (the principal financial officer); the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As of the end of the period covered by this Report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.  The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures is the result of certain deficiencies in internal controls constituting material weaknesses as discussed below. The material weaknesses identified did not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements or any other related financial disclosure, nor does management believe that it had any effect on the accuracy of the Company's financial statements for the current reporting period. We lack segregation of duties in the period-end financial reporting process. The Company has historically had limited accounting and limited operating revenue and, as such, all accounting and financial reporting operations have been and are currently performed by a limited number of individuals. The parties that perform the accounting and financial reporting operations are the only parties with any significant knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the lack of additional staff with significant knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles has resulted in ineffective oversight and monitoring. 

We lack segregation of duties in the period-end financial reporting process. This lack of additional accounting/auditing staff with significant knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles in order to properly segregate duties could result in ineffective oversight and monitoring and the possibility of a misstatement within the financial statements. However, the material weaknesses identified did not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements or any other related financial disclosure, nor does management believe that it had any effect on the accuracy of the Company's financial statements for the current reporting period.

The Company is currently reviewing its policies and is evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures so that it will be able to determine the changes it can and should make to make such controls more effective.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to material affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
