NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2004. On August 13, 2007, the Company changed its name from Stone Mountain Resources, Inc. to Kandi Technologies, Corp.

On June 29, 2007, the Company executed an exchange agreement to acquire 100% of Continental Development Limited, a Hong Kong corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Vehicles”).

In the first fiscal quarter of 2011, Jinhua Kandi New Energy Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“Kandi New Energy”) was incorporated by Kandi Vehicles and Mr. Xiaoming Hu, the Chairman and CEO of the Company.

On April 25, The Company completed the acquisition of KO NGA Investment Limited and its’ subsidiaries of K S Asia Limited Group Limited, Yongkang K S Electric Limited and Yongkang Scrou Electric Co. with consideration of 2,354,212 shares of the Company’s common stock. Yongkang Scrou Electric Co. is an operation vehicle of manufacturing various auto generators.

In connection with an internal reorganization, for the purposes of reducing expenses, Kandi Vehicles and Yongkang KS Electric Co., Ltd (“Yongkang KS Electric”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Share Transfer Agreement, dated June 27, 2012. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this agreement, Yongkang KS Electric sold, transferred and assigned its entire ownership interest in Yongkang Scrou Electric Co. (“Yongkang Scrou”) to Kandi Vehicles for a transfer price of RMB40,000,000. As a result of this transaction, Yongkang Scrou became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kandi Vehicles.

In connection with, and in furtherance of, the internal reorganization noted above, the Company and three of its subsidiaries, Kandi Vehicles, Yongkang KS Electric and Yongkang Scrou entered into an Offset Agreement of credits and debts, dated June 29, 2012. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the parties agreed to offset the payables and receivables of RMB40,000,000 involving share/ownership transfer described above. For clarification, Kandi Vehicles is not required to remit payment of the RMB40,000,000 transfer price to Yongkang KS Electric.

On June 29, 2012, the Company entered into a Share Transfer Agreement with a non-affiliated third-party, Mr. Chen Huabin. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this agreement, the Company sold, transferred and assigned all of its interest in and to certain shell subsidiaries, KO NGA Investment Limited and its subsidiaries, to Mr. Chen Huabin for $1.00. This transaction did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position.

The Company’s organization chart as of this reporting date is as follows:


8



KANDI TECHNOLOGIES, CORP.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 (UNAUDITED)

Kandi Vehicles has a 50% ownership interest and controls the Board of Directors in Kandi New Energy. Under Share Escrow and Trust Agreement, Loan Agreement, Contractor Agreement, between Kandi Vehicles and the other equity owner, Kandi Vehicles is entitled to 100% of the economic benefits, voting rights and residual interests (100% profits and loss absorption rate) in Kandi New Energy.

The primary operations of the Company are designing, developing, manufacturing, and commercializing of all-terrain vehicles, go-karts, and specialized automobile related products for the PRC and global markets.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY

As of September 30, 2012, the Company’s working capital surplus was $ 25,903,447.

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had credit lines from commercial banks of $ 41,364,067, of which $ 29,681,086 was used as of September 30, 2012.

The Company believes that its cash flows generated internally may not be sufficient to support growth of future operations and repay short term bank loans for the next twelve months if needed. However, the Company believes its access to existing financing sources and established relationships with PRC banks will enable it to meet its obligations and fund its ongoing operations.

The Company has historically financed itself through short-term commercial bank loans from PRC banks. The terms of these loans are typically for one year, and upon the payment of all outstanding principal and interest on such loans, the banks have typically rolled over these loans for additional one-year terms, with adjustments made to the interest rate to reflect prevailing market rates. The Company believes this situation has not changed and short-term bank loans will be available on normal trade terms if needed.

NOTE 3 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements.

The financial information included herein for the nine months period ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for these interim periods.

The results of operations for the nine months period ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

NOTE 4 – PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its ownership interest in following subsidiaries:

(i)

Continental Development, Ltd. (“Continental”) (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company)

(ii)

Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Vehicles”) (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Continental)

(v)

Yongkang Scrou Electric. Co., Ltd(a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kandi Vehicles)

Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in a consolidation.

NOTE 5 – USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 6 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

NOTE 6 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.

These tiers include:

  • Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
  • Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
  • Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2012 are as follows:

Warrants   2,621,557     -     2,621,557     -  

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly rated money market funds at a variety of well-known institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash represents time deposits on account, some of which is used to secure short-term bank loans and notes payable. The original cost of these assets approximates fair value due to their short term maturity.

Warrants which are accounted as liabilities, are treated as derivative instruments, which will be measured at each reporting date for their fair value using Level 2 inputs. Also see Note 6 section (s).

The Company’s non-financial assets are measured on a recurring basis. These non-financial assets are measured for impairment annually on the Company’s measurement date at the reporting unit level using Level 3 inputs. For most assets, ASC 820 requires that the impact of changes resulting from its application be applied prospectively in the year in which the statement is initially applied.

The Company’s non-financial assets measured on a non-recurring basis include the Company’s property, plant and equipment and finite-use intangible assets which are measured for recoverability when indicators for impairment are present. ASC 820 requires companies to disclose assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis in the period in which the remeasurement at fair value is performed. The Company has reviewed its long-lived assets as of September 30, 2012 and determined that there are no significant assets to be tested for recoverability under ASC 360 and as such, no fair value measurements related to non-financial assets have been made during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

NOTE 6 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(c) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted cash on September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 represent time deposits on account, some of which are used to secure short-term bank loans and notes payable. As of September 30, 2012, our restricted cash was as set forth on the table below:

Purpose   Amount  
Used to secure short-term bank loans (also see Note 14) $  2,368,172  
Used to secure note payable (also see Note 15)   8,051,784  
Pure time deposits   9,475,488  
Total   19,895,444  

(d) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (market value). The cost of raw materials is determined on the basis of weighted average. The cost of finished goods is determined on the weighted average basis and comprises direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.

Net realizable value is based on estimated selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and selling expense.

(e) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging, ongoing business relation and other factors. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts, as per the management's judgment based on their best knowledge.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the longest credit term used, in connection with certain selected customers was 120 days.

(f) Note receivable

Notes receivable represents short-term loans to third parties with the maximum term of one year. Interest income is recognized according to each agreement between a borrower and the Company on an accrual basis. If notes receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they are recognized in the relevant year if the loan default is probable, reasonably sure and the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company recognizes income if the written-off loan is recovered at a future date. In case of foreclosure procedures or legal actions being taken, the Company provides accrual for the related foreclosure expense and related litigation expenses.

(g) Prepayments

Prepayments represent cash paid in advance to suppliers. As of September 30, 2012, prepayments included cash paid advances to raw material suppliers and prepaid expenses, such as water and electricity fees.

NOTE 6 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(h) Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Office equipment 5 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Moulds 5 years

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

(i) Construction in Progress

Construction in progress represents direct costs of construction or the acquisition cost of buildings or machinery and design fees. Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. No depreciation is provided until the assets are completed and ready for their intended use.

(j) Land Use Rights

According to the laws of China, land in the PRC is owned by the government and its ownership cannot be sold to an individual or a company. However, the government grants the user a “land use right” to use the land. The land use rights granted to the Company are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of fifty years.

(k) Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, including intangible assets subject to amortization, when events and circumstances warrant such a review, pursuant to the guidelines established in ASC No. 350. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset. Fair market value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost to dispose.

During the reporting period, there was no impairment loss.

(l) Revenue Recognition

Revenues represent the invoiced value of goods sold, recognized upon the shipment of goods to customers. Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

  • Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
  • Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
  • The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
  • Collectability is reasonably assured.

(o) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The accounting for deferred tax calculation represents the management’s best estimate on the most likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns and related future anticipation. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

(p) Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). Capital accounts of the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the year, which was obtained from website: http://www.oanda.com

(r) Stock Option Cost

The Company’s stock option cost is recorded in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC 505.

The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the option. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Stock option expense recognized is based on awards expected to vest, and there were no estimated forfeitures. ASC standards requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods, if necessary, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

The stock based compensation expense for the period ended September 30, 2012 was $19,053. Also see Note 17.

(s) Warrant Cost

The Company’s warrant costs are recorded in liabilities and equities respectively in accordance with ASC 480, ASC 505 and ASC 815.

The fair value of warrants, which is classified as a liability, is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the warrant. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the warrant is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement. The warrants, which are freestanding derivatives and are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet, will be measured at fair value on each reporting date, with decreases in fair value recognized in earnings and increases in fair values were recognized in expenses.

The Company determined that the fair value of equity based warrants, which are not considered derivatives under ASC 815, is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the warrant. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

NOTE 7 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). ASU 2011-04 clarifies some existing concepts, eliminates wording differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS, and in some limited cases, changes some principles to achieve convergence between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this ASU beginning January 1, 2012.The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position.

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this ASU beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position; however, the adoption of ASU 2011-05 did affect the manner in which we present comprehensive income.

In September 2011, the FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 is intended to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance. We adopted this ASU beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position.

In July 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-02, Intangibles--Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles--Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. Under the guidance in this ASU, an entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

NOTE 16 – TAX

(a) Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”)

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “new CIT law”), which went into effect on January 1, 2008. In accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of the PRC, the applicable corporate income tax rate is 25%.

Prior to January 1, 2008, the CIT rate applicable to the Company was 33%. Kandi’s first profitable tax year for income tax purposes as a foreign-invested company was 2007. As a foreign-invested company, the income tax rate of Kandi was entitled to a 50% tax holiday based on 25% for years 2009 through 2011. During the transition period, the above tax concession granted to the Company, prior to the new CIT law, will be grandfathered according to the interpretations of the new CIT law. After the tax holiday period is ended, the tax rate applicable to Kandi Vehicle changes to 15% since 2012 because of Kandi Vehicle’s high technology enterprise qualification. Nevertheless, the Company is qualified to a special research and development credit for 2012. The aggregate tax benefits from January 1, 2012 to September 30,2012 were $799,896.

Kandi New Energy and Yongkang Scrou Electric Co., Ltd., aresubsidiaries of the Company and their applicable corporate income tax rate is 25%.

According to the PRC corporation income tax (“CIT”) reporting system, the CIT sales cut-off base is concurrent with the value added tax (“VAT”) which will be reported to the State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”) on a quarterly basis. Since the VAT and CIT are accounted for on a VAT tax basis that recorded all sales on a “State provided official invoices” reporting system, the Company is reporting the CIT according to the SAT prescribed tax reporting rules. Under the VAT tax reporting system, sales cut-off did not take the accrual base but rather on a VAT taxable reporting basis. Therefore, when the company adopted US GAAP on accrual basis, the sales cut-off CIT timing difference which derived from the VAT reporting system will create a temporary sales cut-off timing difference and this difference is reflected in the deferred tax assets or liabilities calculations on the income tax estimation reported in the Form 10-K.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes. The interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.

Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of September 30, 2012, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company files income tax returns to the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) and states where the Company has operation. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by IRS and relevant state tax authorities for years after 2006. During the periods open to examination, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards (“NOLs”) for U.S. federal and state tax purposes that have attributes from closed periods. Since these NOLs may be utilized in future periods, they remain subject to examination. The Company also files certain tax returns in China. As of September 30, 2012 the Company was not aware of any pending income tax examinations by China tax authorities. The Company's policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company has not recorded a provision for U.S federal income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2012 due to the net operating loss carry forward in the United States.

On February 11, 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the grant of stock options for 2,600,000 shares of common stock to ten of the Company's employees and directors.

NOTE 17 - STOCK OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND CONVERTIBLE NOTES (CONTINUED) (b) Warrants and Convertible Notes

On September 21, 2009, the Company executed an agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) with a third-party consultant, whereby the consultant is to provide management consulting and advisory services for a period of 12 months, beginning on September 22, 2009, and ending on September 22, 2010. As compensation for the services provided, the Company agreed to issue 200,000 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock, with 100,000 of these warrants issued at an exercise price of $2.00 per share and 100,000 of these warrants issued at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. In addition, the Consulting Agreement permitted a cashless exercise of all 200,000 warrants. The warrants had a five year contractual term and were granted on October 22, 2009. The warrants vested in full and became exercisable on January 21, 2010, upon the closing of an initial round of financing. The fair value per share of the 100,000 warrants issued under the Consulting Agreement with an exercise price of $2.00 is $4.56, and the fair value per share of the 100,000 warrants issued under the Consulting Agreement with an exercise price of $2.50 is $4.48. As of September 30, 2012, the consultant had cashless exercised all 200,000 warrants.

Under a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 21, 2010, by and among the Company and certain investors thereto, the Company issued a total of $10 million of senior secured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”) and warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 800,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Investor Warrants”), for gross proceeds of $10 million. As of January 21, 2010, at the price of $6.25 per share, the Convertible Notes were convertible into 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock. The Investor Warrants, which are exercisable for a period of three years following the closing date, were initially exercisable for shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.5625 per share.

(2) Pledged collateral for a third party’s bank loans

As of September 30, 2012, the Company provided the land use rights and plant and equipment pledged as collateral for the following third party:

Zhejiang Mengdeli Electric Co., Ltd.:      
Land use rights net book value $  6,844,301  
Plant and equipment net book value $  4,536,418  

It is a common business practice among companies in the region of China where Kandi is located to exchange guarantees for bank debt with no consideration given. It is considered a “favor for favor” business practice and is commonly required by the lending banks as in these cases. These companies provided guarantees for the Company’s bank loans as well. The banks involved in these guarantee transactions typically allow a maximum loan amount based on a 30% to 70% discount on the net book value of the pledged collateral. Also see Note 14.

(b) Pending litigation

There are two lawsuits currently pending in Ripley County, Missouri against the Company and its subsidiary Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd.(“Kandi Vehicles”) as well as other parties, Kandi Investment Group and SunL, and they are related to two persons who died in an accident on March 3, 2006 while operating a go-cart allegedly manufactured by Kandi Vehicles. Kandi Investment Group was a major shareholder of Kandi Vehicles but it transferred all its equity in Kandi Vehicles to Continental Development Limited in November 2006. Since then, Kandi Investment Group is unrelated to the Company or its affiliates.

The cases were filed in 2009 and are known as Elder vs. SunL Group and Griffen vs. SunL Group. In March, 2010, the local trial court entered two default judgments in the amount of $20,000,000 each against Kandi Vehicles and other parties including Kandi Investment but not the Company. The lawsuit and default judgments didn’t come to the Company or Kandi Vehicles’ attention until May or June 2010. The Company had not been served or notified of the lawsuits and learned of their existence and of the default judgment in the course of commercial discussions with another of the defendants in the cases. Currently, the Company and Kandi Vehicles have filed answers to the complaint denying any culpability. In addition, the Company requested that the court set aside the default judgments against Kandi Vehicles, a request granted, by the court, on February 28, 2011. On March 3, 2011, the plaintiffs subsequently appealed the court order vacating the default judgments; however, the plaintiffs have since voluntarily withdrawn their appeal.

The Company intends to propound discovery on the plaintiffs. The Company and Kandi Vehicles each filed a Motion for Summary Judgment in an attempt to have the cases dismissed by summary judgment. The plaintiffs also filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. All of the Motions for Summary Judgment were argued before the court on July 2, 2012. The judge has not ruled on any of the Motions for Summary Judgment.

The Company intends to defend these cases vigorously and expects to prevail in this lawsuit since the Company including its subsidiaries did not manufacture the subject vehicle in the accident.

(c) Capital Commitment

During the previous year, certain mold manufacturing contracts were executed. As of September 30, 2012, the remaining unpaid balance was $ 2,640,669; we plan on paying $ 2,174,929within the next twelve months and the rest in June of 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Policy affecting options, and warrants

The Company’s stock option cost is recorded in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC 505.

The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the option. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Stock option expense recognized is based on awards expected to vest, and there were no estimated forfeitures. ASC standards requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods, if necessary, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

The Company’s warrant costs are recorded in liabilities and equities, respectively, in accordance with ASC 480, ASC 505 and ASC 815.

The fair value of warrants, which is classified as a liability, is estimated using a Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the warrant. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the warrant is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement. The warrants, which are freestanding derivatives and are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet, will be measured at fair value on each reporting date, with decreases in fair value recognized in earnings and increases in fair values recognized in expenses.

The Company determined that the fair value of equity based warrants, which are not considered derivatives under ASC 815, is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the warrant. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Estimates affecting accounts receivable and inventories

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reporting of assets and liabilities (and contingent assets and liabilities). These estimates are particularly significant where they affect the reported net realizable value of the Company’s accounts receivable and inventories.

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging, ongoing business relation and other factors. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 and $0 respectively, as per the management’s judgment based on their best knowledge.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When inventories are sold, their carrying amount is charged to expense in the year in which the revenue is recognized. Write-downs for declines in net realizable value or for losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the year the impairment or loss occurs. There were no declines in net realizable value of inventory for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

While the Company currently believes that there is little likelihood that actual results will differ materially from these current estimates, if customer demand for our products decreases significantly in the near future, or if the financial condition of our customers deteriorates in the near future, the Company could realize significant write downs for slow-moving inventories or uncollectible accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues represent the invoiced value of goods sold, recognized upon the shipment of goods to customers. Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

  • Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
  • Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
  • The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
  • Collectability is reasonably assured.

Off-Road Vehicles

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the market condition for ATV products continued to recover. The Company developed some price competitive products to meet markets demands, which has caused good results and successfully increased the Company’s sales. Revenues from our ATVs experienced a significant increase of $1,925,711, or 69.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 over the comparable period, which was attributable to a 127.0% increase in units sold, from 4,695 units in the first nine months of 2011 to 10,657 units in 2012. This increase was partially caused by a 25.3% unit price reduction.

In the first nine months of 2012, our Go-Karts experienced a significant increase in revenue of $5,320,675 or 31.5% over the same period of last year, which was mainly attributable to a 44.0% increase in unit sales from 16,907 units in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to 24,354 units in 2012. Just as with ATVs, the Company’s successful development of meet-market-demands price competitive products has achieved good results.

The sales of three-wheeled motorcycle (TT) experienced a significant decrease in revenues from $1,433,049 to $893,337.In the first nine months ended September 30, 2012, the sales of TT decreased $539,712, or 37.7% from the same period of last year, despite the slight increase in unit sales from 678 units in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to 733 units in 2012, with an average unit price decrease of 42.3% . The unit price decreased because the Company developed price-competitive gas-electric hybrid driven three wheeled motorcycles to meet the growing demand of such units in the Chinese urban and rural markets.

Utility vehicles (UTVs) experienced a significant decrease in revenues from $1,854,771 to $134,740. This 92.7% decrease is mainly due to the 95.8% drop in unit sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. This significant drop is primarily because of the continuing high competition in this UTV market, while the UTV manufactured by the Company is relatively high end and more expensive, which caused the average unit price to increase significantly compared to the same period of last year.

Super-mini-Car Products

The EV products experienced a significant increase in revenues from $4,920,718 to $5,417,659. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenues from our Super-mini car increased by $496,941, or 10.1% from the same period of 2011, which was attributable to an increase in unit sales of 32.1% from 840 units in the first nine months of 2011 to 1,110 units in 2012. This increase is primarily a result of the benefit from local government’s policies which encourage the development of eco-car. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the average unit price of our super-mini-cars decreased 16.7%, because during most of the reporting period, the Company adopted the sales mode of charging or exchanging batteries to sell the super-mini-cars without batteries.

Refitted car

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenues from our refitted car increased by $1,467,814, or 164.1% from the same period of 2011; that is because the Company started to refit other companies’ vehicles to meet special requirements for certain customers since June 2011.

Auto generator

On April 25, 2012, the Company acquired Yongkang Scrou Electric Co. (“Yongkang Scrou”), whose main business is producing various auto generators. From April 25, 2012 to September 30, 2012, a total 61,440 sets of auto generators were sold with sales totaling $2,441,047.

The following table shows the breakdown of Kandi’s revenues from its customers by geographical markets based on the location of the customer during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

    Nine Months Ended September 30  
    2012     2011  
    Sales     Percentage     Sales     Percentage  
North America $  4,462,269     12%   $  3,476,633     12%  
China   32,868,171     86%     24,531,801     85%  
Europe & other region   851,771     2%     781,332     3%  
Total $  38,182,211     100%   $  28,789,766     100%  

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, approximately 80% of our sales in China were to Chinese export agents, who resell the company’s products to markets around the world.

(b) Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $29,829,097, representing an increase of $7,768,209, or 35.2% from the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This increase can be attributed to the Company’s significant increase of revenue.

(c) Gross profit

Gross profit for the first nine months of 2012 increased 24.1% to $8,353,114 compared to $6,728,878 at the same period of last year, as a result of increased revenue. However, gross margin decreased to 21.9% compared to 23.4% for the same period of 2011. This was primarily due to the fact that processing techniques for refitted cares are relatively simple; therefore, its gross margin is comparatively lower. In addition, Yongkang Scrou’s adjustment to its product structure, its disposal of its old products, and sales of price-competitive products all contributed to a reduction in the Company’s overall gross margin for this reporting period.

(d) Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses were $331,750 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $234,854 for the same period in 2011, representing a 41.3% increase. The significant increase is primarily because of the increase in fees related to customs inspection fees, higher transportation fees and advertising fees.

(e) General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $2,520,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2,568,417 for the same period in 2011, representing a 1.9% decrease.

Off-Road Vehicles

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the market condition for our ATV products continued to recover. The Company developed some price competitive products to meet markets demands that caused good results and successfully increased the Company’s sales. Revenues from our ATVs experienced a significant increase of $689,518, or 66.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the comparable period in 2011, which was attributable to a 76.3% increase from 2,030 units in the three months of 2011 to 3,579 units in 2012. This increase was partially caused by a 5.8% unit price decrease.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, our Go-Karts experienced an increase in revenue of $740,933 or 12.9% compared to the same period in 2011, which was attributable to a 33.7% increase in unit sales from 5,513 units in the three months ended September 30, 2011 to 7,372 units in 2012. Just as with ATVs, the Company’s successful development of price competitive products that meet market demands achieved good results.

In the three months ended September 30, 2012, sales of our TT decreased $541,755, or 72.1% compared to the same period of last year. This decrease primarily occurred because the market is highly competitive, and the decrease in unit sales from 394 units in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to 235 units in 2012, with the average unit price having decreased by 53.3% . The unit price decreased because the Company developed price-competitive, gas-electric hybrid driven three wheeled motorcycles to meet the growing demand of such units in the Chinese urban and rural markets.

UTVs experienced a significant decrease in revenues from $634,534 to $1,358. This 99.8% decrease was mainly due to a 99.8% drop in unit sales in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. This significant drop was primarily due to continuing high competition in the UTV market. The UTVs manufactured by the Company are relatively high end and more expensive, which caused the average unit price to increase significantly compared to the same period of last year.

Super-mini-Car Products

The EV products experienced a significant increase in revenues from $1,512,861 to $2,780,807. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, revenues from our Super-mini car increased by $1,267,946, or 83.8%% from the same period of 2011, which was attributable to an increase in unit sales of 58.1%% from 298 units in the three months of 2011 to 471 units in 2012. This increase is primarily due to beneficial local government policies that have encouraged the development of eco-cars. In addition, for the three month period ended September 30, 2012, the company sold super-mini-cars with and without batteries; the selling price of super-mini-cars with batteries is higher than the selling price of super-mini-cars sold without batteries.

Financial Condition

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital

The Company had a working capital surplus of $25,903,447as of September 30, 2012, comparable to a working capital surplus of $18,936,075 as of September 30, 2011.

The Company believes that its cash flows generated internally may not be sufficient to support growth of future operations and repay short term bank loans for the next twelve months if needed. However, the Company believes its access to existing financing sources and established relationships with PRC banks will enable it to meet its obligations and fund its ongoing operations.

The Company has historically financed itself through short-term commercial bank loans from PRC banks. The terms of these loans are typically for one year, and upon the payment of all outstanding principal and interest in a respective loan, the banks have typically rolled over the loans for additional one-year terms, with adjustments made to the interest rate to reflect prevailing market rates. The Company believes this situation has not changed and the short-term bank loans will be available on normal trade terms if needed.

It is a common business practice among companies in the region of China where Kandi is located to exchange guarantees for bank debt with no consideration given. It is considered a “favor for favor” business practice and is commonly required by the lending banks as in these cases. These companies provided guarantees for the Company’s bank loans as well. The banks involved in these guarantee transactions typically allow a maximum loan amount based on a 30% to 70% discount on the net book value of the pledged collateral.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Exchange Rate Risk

Our operations are conducted mainly in the PRC. As such, our earnings are subject to movements in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in RMB, which is our functional currency. Accordingly, our operating results are affected by changes in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and those currencies.

Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s performance may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in this Form 10-Q, and in other reports required to be filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms for such filings. Management of the Company, under the direction of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15a(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2012. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance 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 SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

There are two lawsuits currently pending in Ripley County, Missouri against the Company and its subsidiary Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd.(“Kandi Vehicles”) as well as other parties, Kandi Investment Group and SunL, and they are related to two persons who died in an accident on March 3, 2006 while operating a go-cart allegedly manufactured by Kandi Vehicles. Kandi Investment Group was a major shareholder of Kandi Vehicles but it transferred all its equity in Kandi Vehicles to Continental Development Limited in November 2006. Since then, Kandi Investment Group is unrelated to the Company or its affiliates.

The cases were filed in 2009 and are known as Elder vs. SunL Group and Griffen vs. SunL Group. In March, 2010, the local trial court entered two default judgments in the amount of $20,000,000 each against Kandi Vehicles and other parties including Kandi Investment but not the Company. The lawsuit and default judgments didn’t come to the Company or Kandi Vehicles’ attention until May or June 2010. The Company had not been served or notified of the lawsuits and learned of their existence and of the default judgment in the course of commercial discussions with another of the defendants in the cases. Currently, the Company and Kandi Vehicles have filed answers to the complaint denying any culpability. In addition, the Company requested that the court set aside the default judgments against Kandi Vehicles, a request granted, by the court, on February 28, 2011. On March 3, 2011, the plaintiffs subsequently appealed the court order vacating the default judgments; however, the plaintiffs have since voluntarily withdrawn their appeal.

The Company intends to propound discovery on the plaintiffs. The Company and Kandi Vehicles each filed a Motion for Summary Judgment in an attempt to have the cases dismissed by summary judgment. The plaintiffs also filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. All of the Motions for Summary Judgment were argued before the court on July 2, 2012. The judge has not ruled on any of the Motions for Summary Judgment.

The Company intends to defend these cases vigorously and expects to prevail in this lawsuit since the Company including its subsidiaries did not manufacture the subject vehicle in the accident.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Other than as set forth in our previous Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2012, as of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011. An investment in our common stock involves various risks. When considering an investment in our company, you should carefully consider all of the risk factors described in our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2012. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing us and there may be additional matters that we are unaware of or that we currently consider immaterial. All of these could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and, thus, the value of an investment in our company.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

As previously reported on Form 8-Ks filed with the SEC on February 17, 2012 and May 2, 2012, in connection with a Share Exchange Agreement, the Company, on April 25, 2012, issued, in an exempt private placement, a total of 2,354,212 shares of the Company’s common stock in reliance on Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with this exempt private placement, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 registering the resale of the securities issued in the private placement. This Resale Form S-3 Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on September 20, 2012.
