FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for any historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contain certain “forward-looking statements’’ within the meaning of the federal securities laws. This includes statements regarding our future financial position, economic performance, results of operations, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, plans and objectives of management for future operations, and the information referred to under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,’’ “will,’’ “expect,’’ “intend,’’ “estimate,’’ “anticipate,’’ “believe,’’ “continue’’ or similar terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, you are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, expectations may prove to have been materially different from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ from projections include, for example:

	●	the success or failure of management’s efforts to implement our business plan;

	●	our ability to fund our operating expenses;

	●	our ability to compete with other companies that have a similar business plan;

	●	the effect of changing economic conditions impacting our plan of operation; and

	●	our ability to meet the other risks as may be described in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Unless otherwise required by law, we also disclaim any obligation to update our view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the SEC. We cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may prove to be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time-frame, or at all.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

TraQiQ, Inc. (“TraQiQ” or along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to herein as the “Company”) is engaged in the full-service solution of waste management. The Company is based out of Troy, Michigan and offers a comprehensive package of waste reduction, collection, recycling, and technology-enabled solutions to support customer demand. The Company operates two distinct lines of business. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Titan Trucking, LLC (“Titan”), is a non-hazardous solid waste management company providing waste and recycling collection and transportation services for industrial generators, commercial contractors and transfer station operators in Michigan. Titan maintains a fleet of roll off and tractor trailer trucks to perform its services. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Recoup Technologies, Inc. (“Recoup”), provides technology-enabled solutions for food waste processing, including onsite digestors for food waste along with cloud-based software tracking and analytics solutions.

On May 19, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Titan and Titan’s wholly owned subsidiary, Senior Trucking, LLC (“Senior”). In accordance with ASC 805 - Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), the transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, with TraQiQ treated as the legal acquirer and Titan treated as the accounting acquirer. TraQiQ remains the continuing registrant and reporting company . Accordingly, the historical financial and operating data of the Company, which covers periods prior to the closing date of the Titan Merger, reflects the assets, liabilities, and results of operations for Titan and does not reflect the assets, liabilities and results of operations of TraQiQ for the periods prior to May 19, 2023 (Note 3 – Business Combinations).

On July 28, 2023 the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary TraQiQ Solutions, Inc (“Ci2i”), and Ajay Sikka (“Sikka”), a director of the Company and its former chief executive officer, signed an Assignment of Stock Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”). Under the terms of the Assignment Agreement, the Company assigned and transferred to Sikka all of the rights, title, and interests in the issued and outstanding equity interests of Ci2i in exchange for consideration of $1. The Company additionally assumed from Ci2i loans and short term debts valued at $209,587 plus fees and interest. Other than the liabilities assumed from Ci2i, the balance sheet amounts and operations of Ci2i as of the date of sale were insignificant.

March 31, 2023 Financial Statements

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, (collectively, “the second quarter financial statements”), the Company identified errors in its previously-issued financial statements as of and for the period ending March 31, 2023. Management determined that these financial statements incorrectly accounted for the January 5, 2023, acquisition of the Recoup digester business assets as a business combination instead of as an asset acquisition under the guidance enumerated in FASB ASC 805. The result of the change was to remove goodwill previously recorded ($7.2 million) as part of the transaction and allocate that value to the intellectual property intangible asset. The Company also determined that the Black-Scholes model used to previously value the derivative liability was not appropriate and subsequently utilized a Monte Carlo pricing model, to more appropriately reflect the variability in the derivative. This resulted in a $112 million reduction of the derivative liability at March 31, 2023. The Company’s management and the audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors concluded that due to the correction of the errors that were discovered, the previously issued unaudited financial statements and other financial information contained in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the fiscal period ended March 31, 2023 should no longer be relied upon.

The Company’s acquisition of Titan on May 19, 2023 (Note 3 – Business Combinations) (the “Titan Merger”) was treated as a reverse acquisition under ASC 805 for financial reporting purposes, with TraQiQ as the legal acquirer and Titan as the accounting acquirer. Titan’s historical consolidated financial statements have replaced TraQiQ’s historical consolidated financial statements with respect to periods prior to the completion of the Titan Merger. Therefore, management believes the accounting errors identified do not impact the historical consolidated financial statements presented herein.

Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $142,155,870. The working capital of the Company was a deficit of $8,321,866 as of September 30, 2023 (deficit of $1,106,879 as of December 31, 2022). These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after that date that the financial statements are issued.

Management’s plans include raising capital through issuances of equity and debt securities, and minimizing operating expenses of the business to improve the Company’s cash burn rate. On July 17, 2023, the Company converted $1,944,000 of principal and $75,263 of accrued interest related to its outstanding convertible note payables into Series A rights to receive common stock (“Series A Rights”), resulting in the extinguishment of almost all of the Company’s convertible note embedded derivative liabilities. In addition, the Company has been successful in attracting substantial capital from investors interested in the current public status of the Company that has been used to support its ongoing cash outlays. This includes $2,178,000 of convertible notes during the three months ended September 30, 2023 (Note 10 - Convertible Notes Payable). The Company believes, but cannot guarantee, it will continue to be able to attract capital from outside sources as it pursues a move to a national stock exchange. The Company has engaged a qualified investment bank to assist in the uplisting of its common stock and simultaneous raise of capital. In addition, the Company’s revenue continues to grow and management expects the Company to shrink its net losses over the upcoming quarters through organic and acquisitive growth. The Company has identified a plan to decrease expenses going forward to reduce its cash burn.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consistent of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for a full year. The Company adopted a December 31 fiscal year-end for financial statement purposes.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Accounting

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TraQiQ, Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s policy is to prepare its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting, whereby revenue is recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Business Combinations

Under the guidance enumerated in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not considered a business and is accounted for as an asset acquisition at which point, the acquirer measures the assets acquired based on their cost, which is allocated on a relative fair value basis.

Business combinations are accounted for utilizing the fair value of consideration determined by the Company’s management and external specialists. The Company recognizes estimated fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized as any excess in fair value over the net value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid money market funds and certificates of deposit with original maturities of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with various banks. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. The Company monitors the cash balances held in its bank accounts, and as of September 30, 2023 and December, 2022 did not have any concerns regarding cash balances which exceeded the insured amounts.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivables are recorded at the amount the Company expects to collect on the balance outstanding at year-end. Management closely monitors outstanding balances during the year and allocates an allowance account if appropriate. The Company estimates and records a provision for its expected credit losses related to its financial instruments, including its trade receivables and contract assets. The Company considers historical collection rates, the current financial status of its customers, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating for current expected credit losses. Forward-looking information is also considered in the evaluation of current expected credit losses. However, because of the short time to the expected receipt of accounts receivable, the Company believes that the carrying value, net of expected losses, approximates fair value and therefore, relies more on historical and current analysis of such financial instruments.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company allocated $77,690 to the allowance for credit loss. The Company writes off bad debts as they occur during the year. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had accounts receivable, net of $413,723.

Subscriptions Receivable

Subscription receivable consists of units that have been issued with subscriptions that have not yet been settled. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $0 and $200,000, respectively, in subscriptions that had not yet settled. Subscriptions receivable are carried at cost which approximates fair value.

Inventory

Inventories primarily consist of parts for our digester business purchased for resale. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. Management reviews the age of inventories for obsolescence and determined that a reserve for obsolescence was not required as of September 30, 2023.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any related gain or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations or the period in which the disposal occurred. The Company utilizes a useful life ranging from 5 to 25 years for its trailers, tractors, shop equipment, leasehold improvements, and containers.

Management regularly reviews property and equipment for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Finite Long-lived Intangible Assets, Net

Finite long-lived intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. Finite long-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Management annually evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the finite intangible assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. Titan acquired the finite intangible asset, customer lists, as part of the acquisition of WTI Global, Inc. during the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company also recognized finite intangible intellectual property, noncompete agreement and tradename assets from its reverse acquisition with Titan (Note 3 – Business Combinations).

Finite long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the expected long-term undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate is less than its carrying amount. Any write-downs are treated as permanent reductions in the carrying amount of the respective asset. Management assessed and concluded that no impairment write-down would be necessary for finite long-lived intangible assets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Company amortizes these intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as stated below:

Finite Long-lived Intangible Assets Categories		Estimated Useful Life
Customer Lists		10 Years
Intellectual Property		10 Years
Noncompete agreement		5 Years
Tradenames		10 Years

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition price of a business over the fair value of identified net assets of that business. Goodwill has an indefinite lifespan and is not amortized. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually and record an impairment charge when the carrying amount of a reporting unit with goodwill exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit. The Company has two reporting units, Titan and Recoup.

The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine if it is necessary to conduct a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If deemed necessary, a quantitative assessment of the reporting unit’s fair value is conducted and compared to its carrying value in order to determine the impairment charge. Due to the reverse acquisition with Titan, the Company recognized goodwill of $22,319,908 for the Recoup reporting unit on the condensed consolidated balance sheet (Note 3 - Business Combinations). As a result of the historical net losses of TraQiQ, the Company concluded it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than it’s carrying amount as of June 30, 2023. Therefore, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the goodwill.

The fair value of the Recoup reporting unit was estimated using an income approach and included assumptions related to estimates of future revenue and operating expenses, long-term growth rates, a technology obsolescence rate, and a discount rate. The quantitative impairment test indicated a fair value of the reporting unit that was lower than it’s carrying value, and as a result, the goodwill was impaired with an impairment expense of $15,669,287 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (Note 6 - Goodwill).

Leases

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and recognizes right-of-use assets (“ROU”) and corresponding lease liabilities at the lease commencement date. The lease term is used to calculate the lease liability, which includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The leases the Company currently holds do not have implicit borrowing rates, therefore the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to measure the ROU assets and liabilities. Operating lease expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. All leases that have lease terms of one year or less are considered short-term leases, and therefore are not recorded through a ROU or liability.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate the lease and non-lease components of a contract, which ultimately results in a higher amount of total lease payments being included within the present value calculation of the lease liability.

Loan Origination Fees

Loan origination fees represent loan fees, inclusive of original issue discounts, relating to convertible note payables and note payables granted to the Company. The Company amortizes loan origination fees over the life of the note (Note 9 – Note Payables and Note 10 – Convertible Note Payable). Amortization expense of loan issuance fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $210,225 and $450, respectively. Amortization expense of loan issuance fees for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $139,228 and $420, respectively. The net amounts of $577,480 and $93,744 were netted against the outstanding notes payable as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.

The following provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which fair value is observable:

Level 1- fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted in active markets for identical assets or liabilities);

Level 2- fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3- fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Financial instruments classified as Level 1 quoted prices in active markets include cash and cash equivalents.

These consolidated financial instruments are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment to estimation. Valuations based on unobservable inputs are highly subjective and require significant judgments. Changes in such judgments could have a material impact on fair value estimates.

In addition, since estimates are as of a specific point in time, they are susceptible to material near-term changes. Changes in economic conditions may also dramatically affect the estimated fair values.

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management for the respective periods. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value, as the variable interest rates approximate current market rates. The Company measured its derivative liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis using level 3 inputs.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record embedded conversion options and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded in earnings each period as non-operating, non-cash income or expense. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Embedded conversion options and any related freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument. The Company allocates proceeds based on the relative fair values of the debt and equity components.

Valuations derived from various models are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. The Company determined the fair value of the derivative liability as of September 30, 2023 using the Black-Scholes pricing model for its derivative liability from warrants and a Monte Carlo pricing model for its derivative liabilities from convertible note payables. The inputs used involve management’s judgement and may impact net income (loss).

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires the following:

1. Identify the contract with a customer.

2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

3. Determine the transaction price of the contract.

4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

5. Recognize revenue when the performance obligations are met or delivered.

The Company’s operating revenues are primarily generated from fees charged for the collection and disposal of waste. Revenues are recognized at a point in time immediately after completion of disposal of waste at a landfill or transfer station. Revenues from collection operations are influenced by factors such as collection frequency, type of collection furnished, type and volume or weight of the waste collected, distance to the disposal facility or material recovery facility and disposal costs. Fees charged at transfer stations are generally based on the weight or volume of waste deposited, including the cost of loading, transporting, and disposing of the solid waste at a disposal site. The fees charged for services generally include environmental, fuel charge and regulatory recovery fees, which are intended to pass through to customers direct and indirect costs incurred. For waste collection and disposal services the Company invoices its customers with standard 30-day payment terms without any significant financing terms.

The Company also recognizes operating revenues from its product sales, such as sales of digester equipment and parts. Performance obligations from product sales are satisfied at the point in time when products are shipped to the customer, which is when the customer has title and control. Therefore, the Company’s product sale contracts have a single performance obligation (shipment of product). The Company primarily receives fixed consideration for sales of products. When revenue is earned on digester equipment related services, such as management advisory fees and digester maintenance and repair services, fees are recognized as the services are performed based on service milestones. For product sales, the Company invoices its customers with standard 30-day payment terms without any significant financing terms.

The following is a summary of revenue disaggregated by type for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

SUMMARY OF DISAGGREGATION OF REVENUE

	2023		2022		2023		2022
	Nine Months Ended				Three Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Product sales	$	935,209	$	-	$	751,034	$	-
Waste collection and disposal		4,633,015		2,823,911		1,855,619		1,254,058
Total revenue	$	5,568,224	$	2,823,911	$	2,606,653	$	1,254,058

Concentration Risk

The Company performs a regular review of customer activity and associated credit risks.

As of September 30, 2023, three customers accounted for approximately 51% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022, one customer accounted for approximately 63% of accounts receivable.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for approximately 35% of total revenues generated. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, two customers accounted for approximately 68% of total revenues generated. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, three customers accounted for approximately 48% of total revenues generated. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, two customers accounted for approximately 59% of total revenues generated.

The Company maintains positive customer relationships and continually expands its customer base, mitigating the impact of any potential concentration risks that exist.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

Basic net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number vested of common shares, plus the net impact of common shares (computed using the treasury stock method), if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of dilutive securities. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company excluded the common stock equivalents summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

	Nine Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,
	2023		2022
Series C preferred stock		63,090,000		-
Warrants		108,734		-
Convertible notes		17,680		-
Total common stock equivalents		63,216,414		-

As further described in Note 3 – Business Combinations, under applicable accounting principles, the historical financial results of Titan prior to May 19, 2023 replace the historical financial statements for the period prior to May 19, 2023. Titan’s equity structure, prior to the combination with the TraQiQ, was a limited liability company, resulting in all components of equity attributable to the members being reported within Member’s Equity. Given that Titan was a limited liability company, net loss prior to the reverse acquisition is not applicable for purposes of calculating loss per share.

The Company has assessed the Series A Right to Receive Common Stock (“Series A Rights”) and the Series B Rights to Receive Common Stock (“Series B Rights”) for appropriate balance sheet classification and concluded that the Series A Rights and Series B Rights are freestanding equity-linked financial instruments that meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815. In accordance with ASC 260 Earnings per Share the Company determined that the Series A Rights and Series B Rights should be included in the determination of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Income Taxes and Uncertain Tax Positions

Income taxes are accounted under the asset and liability method. The current charge for income tax expense is calculated in accordance with the relevant tax regulations applicable to entity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company follows FASB ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. Management evaluates their tax positions on an annual basis.

TraQiQ, Inc. files a tax return in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. Prior to the sale of its subsidiary TraQiQ Solutions, Inc., TraQiQ Inc. and TraQiQ Solutions Inc filed a consolidated tax return in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. Recoup files a tax return in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and the State of Delaware. Prior to the Titan Merger, Titan, with consent from its shareholders, had elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be an “S” corporation. In lieu of corporation income taxes, the shareholders of an “S” corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Titan Merger qualified as a tax-free “reorganization”. Therefore, following the Titan Merger, Titan is to be taxed as a “C” corporation in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and in various state tax jurisdictions.

The U.S. federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities. U.S. federal income tax returns have a default audit examination window of three years, and an examination window of six years when there are substantial omissions or errors on the return. There is no statute of limitations for fraudulent or false returns, or for returns which were never filed. The company is subject to various state tax jurisdictions, which generally have an examination window of four years for income tax returns.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Costs associated with advertising are charged to expense as occurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the advertising and marketing costs were $11,010 and $24,918, respectively. Advertising and marketing costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $3,328 and $4,982, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company has reviewed the recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC and determined that these pronouncements do not have a material impact on the Company’s current or anticipated consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments carried at amortized cost, such as accounts receivable, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for smaller reporting companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Titan Trucking, LLC Reverse Acquisition

The Company, the Company’s subsidiary Titan Merger Sub Corp. (“Merger Sub”), Titan and the owners of Titan (“Titan owners”) entered into a merger agreement (the “Titan Merger Agreement”) on May 19, 2023 (the “acquisition date”). Pursuant to the terms of the Titan Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into Titan on the acquisition date with Titan surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Titan Merger”). For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Titan Merger qualified as a tax-free “reorganization”. Under the terms of the Titan Merger Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Titan owners 630,900 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock. Concurrent to the Titan Merger, the Company’s chief executive officer and one of the Company’s directors resigned from their respective positions and a new chief executive officer, chief operating officer and chief financial officer were appointed. Additionally, the new chief executive officer and chief operating officer were both appointed as directors of the Company. The Company additionally agreed to issue stock compensation in the form of 70,100 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock to the new chief executive officer (Note 14 – Stock-Based Compensation).

In accordance with ASC 805 – Business Combinations, the Titan Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Titan being deemed the accounting acquirer of TraQiQ. Titan, as the accounting acquirer, recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of TraQiQ at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Titan’s historical consolidated financial statements have replaced TraQiQ’s historical consolidated financial statements with respect to periods prior to the completion of the Titan Merger with retroactive adjustments to Titan’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of TraQiQ. TraQiQ remains the continuing registrant and reporting company.

Titan was deemed to be the accounting acquirer based on the following facts and circumstances: (1) the Titan owners owned approximately 65% of the voting interests of the combined company immediately following the transaction; (2) the Titan Merger resulted in significant changes to the combined company’s Board of Directors; (3) the Titan Merger resulted in significant changes to the management of the combined company.

The Company accounted for the Titan Merger as a reverse acquisition using acquisition accounting. Because the Titan Merger qualifies as a reverse acquisition and given that Titan was a private company at the time of the Titan Merger and therefore its value was not readily determinable, the fair value of the merger consideration was deemed to be equal to quoted market capitalization of the Company at the acquisition date. The purchase consideration was as follows:

SCHEDULE OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION


TraQiQ, Inc. market capitalization at closing	$	27,162,222
Total purchase consideration	$	27,162,222

The Company recorded all tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at their preliminary estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing the estimated fair values with a third-party specialist. The following represents the allocation of the estimated purchase consideration:

	Preliminary
	Estimated
Description	Fair Value

Assets:
Cash	$	69,104
Accounts receivable		369,338
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		17,893
Inventory		416,046
Fixed assets		1,134
Intangible assets		10,681,477

Derivative liability		(219,171	)
Convertible notes payable		(1,466,382	)
Convertible notes payable – related parties		(102,851	)
Notes payable		(3,579,160	)
Notes payable – related parties		(2,500	)
Liabilities acquired total	$	(6,712,678	)

Net fair value of assets (liabilities)	$	27,162,222

The Company assessed the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities and the amount of goodwill to be recognized as of the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and were based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The intangible assets acquired were specific to the Company’s Recoup subsidiary.

The preliminary fair value of the intellectual property intangible asset was measured using the multiple periods excess earnings method (“MPEEM”). Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimated useful life of ten (10) years, an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, an estimated technology obsolescence adjustment, and a discount rate of 19.8%.

The preliminary fair value of the tradenames intangible asset was measured using the relief from royalty method. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimated projected revenue from the tradename, a pre-tax royalty rate of 1%, and a discount rate of 19.8%.

The preliminary fair value of the noncompete agreement intangible asset was measured with a discounted cash flow analysis that compared projected cash flows during the noncompete agreement period with and without the agreement. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of time for the parties involved to identify the product, bring in the technology, and start the manufacturing process. As well as the estimated risk that the parties involved would choose to compete without the agreement in place and a discount rate of 19.8%. The noncompete agreement prevents the parties involved from directly or indirectly, engaging in, or be interested in, any business or entity that engages in any business substantially similar to the Recoup Digester business for a period of five (5) years.

Goodwill arising from the acquisition consisted of new customer relationships for the Company, access to new product market opportunities and expected growth opportunities. Total acquisition costs incurred were approximately $450,000 recorded as component of professional fees expenses.

The approximate revenue and gross profit for TraQiQ (excluding the operations of Titan) from May 19, 2023 through September 30, 2023 was $935,209 and $546,902, respectively.

The following supplemental pro-forma financial information approximate combined financial information assumes that the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the year ended December 31, 2022:

	Nine Months Ended			Year Ended
	September 30,			December 31,
	2023			2022
Total revenue	$	5,936,731		$	4,204,694
Net loss	$	(122,348,055	)	$	(24,337,792	)
Pro forma loss per common share	$	(1.46	)	$	(5.52	)
Pro forma weighted average number of common shares basic and diluted		84,039,244			4,410,595

The pro forma combined results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, include stock-based compensation of $5,590,485 and goodwill impairment expense of $15,669,287. The pro forma combined results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have occurred, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results.

NOTE 6 – GOODWILL

The Company has two reporting units, Titan and Recoup. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the goodwill for both reporting units was $6,650,621 and $0, respectively. Due to the Titan Merger and the resulting recognition of goodwill from the reverse acquisition, the Company recognized goodwill of $22,319,908 for the Recoup reporting unit on the Titan Merger acquisition date.

As a result of the historical net losses of TraQiQ, the Company concluded it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than it’s carrying amount as of June 30, 2023. Therefore, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the goodwill. The fair value of the Recoup reporting unit was estimated using an income approach and included assumptions related to estimates of future revenue and operating expenses, long-term growth rates, a technology obsolescence rate, and a discount rate. The quantitative impairment test indicated a fair value of the reporting unit that was lower than it’s carrying value, and as a result, the goodwill was impaired with an impairment expense of $15,669,287 on June 30, 2023.

Pursuant to the Series B Preferred Exchange Agreement Sikka also exchanged 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and a payment of receivable from the Company for unreimbursed advances in the amount of $100,000 for an aggregate of 7,000,000 additional Series A Rights dated July 17, 2023. The Series A Rights were valued at their fair value at the time of grant, which was deemed to $2.90 per Series A Right Share.

On July 20, 2023, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “REI Exchange Agreement”) with Renovare Environmental, Inc. (“REI”) pursuant to which REI exchanged 14,118,233 shares of Common Stock and 1,250,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for 108,729,363 Series A Rights dated July 20, 2023 and 30,388,873 Series B Rights dated July 20, 2023. The Series A Rights and Series B Rights were valued at their fair value at the time of grant, which was deemed to be $1.80 per Series A Right Share and $1.80 per Series B Right Share.

The transactions contemplated by the Note Exchange Agreement, Series B Preferred Exchange Agreement and REI Exchange Agreement are together referred to as the “Rights Exchanges”. As a result of the Rights Exchanges, the Company recognized a loss of $116,591,322 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The Company’s Series A Rights obligate the Company to issue Common Stock (“Series A Right Shares”) to the holder without any additional consideration. The number of Series A Right Shares is fixed, and is only subject to customary non-price based ratable adjustments, such as stock splits, and stock combinations. The Series A Rights are exercisable immediately and expire five years after the issuance date. The Series A Rights require the Company to hold in reserve the total number of shares of Common Stock that would need to be exercised in order meet the obligations of the Series A Rights.

The Company’s Series B Rights obligate the Company to issue Common Stock (“Series B Right Shares”) to the holder without any additional consideration. The number of Series B Right Shares is fixed and is only subject to customary non-price based ratable adjustments, such as stock splits, and stock combinations. The Company’s Series B Rights are exercisable upon the earlier of (1) December 31, 2023 or (2) the initial date on which the Company’s Common Stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE American, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, Nasdaq Capital Markets, or the Nasdaq Global Market. The Series B Rights expire five years after the issuance date. The Series B Rights require the Company to hold in reserve the total number of shares of Common Stock that would need to be exercised in order meet the obligations of the Series B Rights.

The Company assessed the Series A Rights and Series B Rights for appropriate balance sheet classification and concluded that the Series A Rights and Series B Rights are freestanding equity-linked financial instruments that meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815. Accordingly, they are classified as equity and accounted for as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. The Company also determined that the Series A Rights and Series B Rights should be included in the determination of basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 2,005,000 shares of common stock related to restricted stock grants that were vested and unissued. On September 13, 2023, the Company signed a Cancellation of Restricted Stock Grants Agreement with Sikka and two directors which rescinded and annulled 1,705,000 of the vested and unreleased shares and the 3,000,000 unvested shares. Consequently, the obligation to issue shares was eliminated.

Stock-based compensation from restricted stock awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $5,590,485 and $0, respectively. Stock-based compensation from restricted stock awards for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $2,278 and $0, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, there remained $0 of unrecognized stock-based compensation from restricted stock awards. The total fair value of restricted shares that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $3,510 and $0, respectively. The fair value of the vested and unreleased shares on the date of the Titan Merger was $16,439.

On the Titan Merger acquisition date, the Company awarded 70,100 shares of Series C Preferred Stock that vested immediately to its chief executive officer, and as a result recorded $5,586,796 of stock-based compensation (Note 13 – Stockholders’ Equity). On September 28, 2023, the Company and the chief executive officer signed a cancellation agreement and the Series C Preferred Stock shares were rescinded. Under the terms of the cancellation agreement, the Company agreed to issue ten-year stock options to acquire a number of shares of common stock of the Company in order to provide the chief executive officer an equity interest in the Company commensurate with the value of the original stock award. Such options will have an exercise price equal to the sale price of the common stock in the next public offering of common stock consummated by the Company.

The fair value of the Series C Preferred Stock was determined using observable inputs (level 2 fair value measurement) with a market approach technique. The main input for the Series C Preferred Stock fair value was the price of the Company’s common stock as of the date of the grant.

NOTE 15 – CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is involved in routine litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business. The Company is in an ongoing lawsuit with Wolverine Transfer Station over a contractual dispute and property damages. Wolverine is countersuing the Company for losses from the cancellation of contractual obligations. It is the position of the Company that net losses arising from Wolverine’s claims are not estimable nor probable at the time of this filing.

NOTE 16 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events were evaluated through November 14, 2023, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. There were no subsequent events other than those described below:

Deferral of Note Payable Payments

In October 2023, the Company and Michaelson agreed to forbear until October 31, 2023, the principal payments owed by the Company to Michaelson during the three month period ended September 30, 2023 under the terms of the Michaelson Note. The Company continued to pay Michaelson its regularly scheduled interest payments and on October 31, 2023 paid Michaelson the deferred principal (Note 9 – Notes Payable).

Related Party Promissory Note

In October 2023, the Company and Glen Miller, the Company’s chief executive officer, signed a non-interest bearing promissory note with a principal of $250,000. The promissory note is to be repaid within thirty days of the receipt of bridge funding received by the Company as a result of a planned private placement of equity securities. In the event of a default on the promissory note, the Company will be required to pay a 10% late payment fee.

Board and Shareholder Approval of Plan for Reincorporation

Subsequent to September 30, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors and the holders of the Company’s capital stock representing a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast by the Company’s shareholders approved a plan to reincorporate the Company in the State of Nevada (the “Reincorporation”) through the merger (the “Reincorporation Merger”) of the Company with and into Titan Environmental Solutions Inc., a wholly-owned, newly-formed Nevada subsidiary formed by the Company specifically for this purpose (“Titan Environmental”), in an effort to better position the Company to attract capital as it seeks to grow its business in the waste management industry. Implementing the Reincorporation will have, among other things, the following effects: 1) the Company’s corporate name will be charged to “Titan Environmental Solutions, Inc.”, 2) each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger will be converted into one share of common stock of Titan Environmental, 3) each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Series C preferred stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger will be converted into one share of Series A convertible preferred stock of Titan Environmental, which has substantially the same rights and preferences as the Company’s Series C preferred stock, 4) each outstanding Right to Receive Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger will be converted into one Right to Receive Common Stock of Titan Environmental, which has substantially the same rights and preferences as the Company’s Rights to Acquire Common Stock, 5) the outstanding warrants to purchase our common stock will automatically be assumed by Titan Environmental and will represent a warrant to acquire shares of common stock of Titan Environmental, 6) the Company’s authorized capital stock will be increased to 425,000,000 total shares, consisting of 400,000,000 shares of common stock and 25,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, of which 630,900 shares shall be designated “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”, 7) the persons presently serving as the Company’s executive officers and directors will continue to serve in such respective capacities following the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger, and 8) the Company will be governed by the laws of the State of Nevada and the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws will be those of Titan Environmental, which were adopted under the laws of the State of Nevada.

On or about October 12, 2023, the Company mailed an Information Statement that describes the Reincorporation to the Company’s shareholders of record as of October 5, 2023 for informational purposes only pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations prescribed thereunder. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act, the Reincorporation will not be effective until 20 calendar days after the mailing of the Information Statement to the shareholders, at which time the Company may file with the California Secretary of State and the Nevada Secretary of State one or more certificates of merger and incorporation to effectuate the Reincorporation. The Reincorporation will be effective at such time after the expiration of such 20-day period as the board of directors determines to be the appropriate effective time.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

As used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” except where the context otherwise requires, the term “we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Company,” refers to the business of TraQIQ Inc.

The following presentation of management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. This section and other parts of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview of Our Company

We operate two distinct lines of business. Titan Trucking, LLC is a non-hazardous solid waste management company providing waste and recycling collection and transportation services for industrial generators, commercial contractors and transfer station operators in Michigan. Titan maintains a fleet of roll off and tractor trailer trucks to perform its services. Titan operates in a highly recession resistant industry given the ongoing generation of waste and recyclable materials. Titan’s goal is to provide our customers with safe and efficient options for the disposal and recycling of their waste streams. Titan has begun to create the infrastructure needed to expand its operations organically and through strategic acquisitions and market development opportunities across the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast regions of the United States. Recoup Technologies, Inc. provides technology enabled solutions for food waste processing including onsite Digestors for food waste along with cloud-based software tracking and analytics solutions.

Reverse Acquisition with Titan Trucking, LLC

On May 19, 2023, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Titan Merger Sub Corp. (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of the Closing Date (the “Merger Agreement”), with Titan Trucking, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Titan”), Titan 5, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Titan 5”), Titan National Holdings 2, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Holdings”), Jeffrey Rizzo, an individual (“JR”), William McCauley, an individual (“WM”, and, together with Holdings, Titan 5 and JR, the “Sellers”), and Jeffrey Rizzo, as the Seller Representative, pursuant to which, Merger Sub was merged with and into Titan, with Titan continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company (the “Titan Merger”).

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Titan Merger qualified as a tax-free “reorganization”. Under the Terms of the Titan Merger Agreement, we agreed to pay the Titan owners 630,900 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock. Concurrent to the Titan Merger, the our chief executive officer and one of our directors resigned from their respective positions and a new chief executive officer, chief operating officer and chief financial officer were appointed. Additionally, the new chief executive officer and chief operating officer were both appointed as directors of our company. We additionally agreed to issue stock compensation in the form of 70,100 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock to the new chief executive officer.

In accordance with ASC 805 – Business Combinations, the Titan Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Titan being deemed the accounting acquirer of our company. Titan, as the accounting acquirer, recorded the assets and liabilities of our company at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Titan’s historical consolidated financial statements have replaced our historical consolidated financial statements with respect to periods prior to the completion of the Titan Merger with retroactive adjustments to Titan’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of our company. We remain the continuing registrant and reporting company.

We accounted for the Titan Merger as a reverse acquisition using acquisition accounting. Because the Titan Merger qualifies as a reverse acquisition and given that Titan was a private company at the time of the Titan Merger and therefore its value was not readily determinable, the fair value of the merger consideration was deemed to be equal to quoted market capitalization of our company at the acquisition date. The purchase consideration is as follows:

TraQiQ, Inc. market capitalization at closing		$	27,162,222
Total purchase consideration		$	27,162,222

We recorded all tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at their preliminary estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The following represents the allocation of the estimated purchase consideration:

	Preliminary

Results of Operations and Financial Condition for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 as Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Waste collection and disposal		4,633,015		2,823,911
Total revenue	$	5,568,224	$	2,823,911

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our revenues increased by $2,744,313, from $2,823,911 to $5,568,224. The increase was the result of the Titan Merger on May 19, 2023, and the resulting increased revenue caused by the combined operations of our company and Titan. Additionally, we have continued to expand the Titan sales operations.

Cost of Revenue

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our cost of revenue increased by $1,835,714 or 64%, from $2,868,070 to $4,703,784. The increase was due to the increased revenue-generating activities from our increased sales activities, and from the combined operations of our company and Titan resulting from the Titan Merger.

Operating Expenses

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our salary and salary related costs increased by $847,735, or 257%, from $330,120 to $1,177,855. The increase was due to the increased personnel costs associated with the Titan Merger combination of the operations of our company and Titan and increases to the operational activity of Titan.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our stock based compensation increased by $5,590,485, or 100%, from $0 to $5,590,485. The increase can be attributed primarily to the vesting of restricted stock awards and to Series C Preferred Stock that was awarded to the chief executive officer on May 19, 2023 and which vested immediately. On September 28, 2023, the Company and the chief executive officer signed a cancellation agreement and the Series C Preferred Stock shares were rescinded and cancelled. Under the terms of the cancellation agreement, the Company agreed to issue ten-year stock options to acquire a number of shares of common stock of the Company in order to provide the chief executive officer an equity interest in the Company commensurate with the value of the original stock award. Such options will have an exercise price equal to the sale price of the common stock in the next public offering of common stock consummated by the Company.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our professional fees increased by $2,028,655, or 1,965%, from $103,247 to $2,131,902. The increase was attributed primarily to consulting, accounting, and legal fees incurred during 2023 related to the Titan Merger and our other acquisition activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our depreciation and amortization expense increased by $669,882 from $4,997 to $674,879. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was the result of Titan’s investment in new fixed asset equipment and the intangible assets recognized from the Titan Merger.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our general and administrative expenses increased by $487,694, or 250%, from $194,889 to $682,583. The increase was primarily due to our increased operational and sales activities, the addition of a new lease, and the Titan Merger.

Interest Expense, net of Interest Income

The increase was due mainly to a large increase in debt instruments accruing interest on our balance sheet as a result of the Titan Merger. We also issued and sold new debt instruments following the Titan Merger, which increased our interest expense.

Net Loss

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our net loss increased by $142,032,107 or 114,761% from a net loss of $123,763 to a net loss of $142,155,870. The change in net loss was primarily a result of the loss on extinguishment and issuance of share rights of $116,591,322, impairment of goodwill of $15,669,287, the increase in stock-based compensation, the increase in professional fees, and the other effects of the May 19, 2023 Titan Merger.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our stock based compensation increased by $2,278, or 100%, from $0 to $2,278. The increase is due to the vesting of restricted stock awards.

The increase was primarily due to our increased operational and sales activities, the addition of a second lease, and the Titan Merger.

Interest Expense, net of Interest Income

The increase was due mainly to a large increase in debt instruments accruing interest on our balance sheet as a result of the Titan Merger. We have also issued and sold new debt instruments following the Titan Merger, which has resulted in increased interest expense.

Net Loss

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022, our net loss increased by $118,310,092 or 42,691% from $277,129 to $118,587,221 due to the loss on extinguishment and issuance of share rights of $116,591,322, the increase in professional expenses, and the other effects of the May 19, 2023 Titan Merger.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. As of September 30, 2023, we had $598,416 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $26,650 at December 31, 2022, an increase of $571,766 resulting primarily from net proceeds of debt financings. As of September 30, 2023, we had approximately $1.2 million in accounts receivable compared to approximately $0.5 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of approximately $0.7 million primarily from receivables gained from the Titan Merger.

As of September 30, 2023, we had total current assets of approximately $2.4 million and total current liabilities of approximately $10.7 million, or negative working capital of approximately $8.3 million, compared to total current assets of approximately $0.9 million and total current liabilities of approximately $2.0 million, or negative working capital of $1.1 million at December 31, 2022. This is a decrease in working capital of approximately $7.2 million over the working capital balance at the end of 2022 driven primarily by the Titan Merger and the private placements of debt securities completed during the nine-month period.

As of September 30, 2023, we had undiscounted obligations in the amount of approximately $7.5 million relating to the payment of indebtedness due within one year. We anticipate meeting our cash obligations on our indebtedness that is payable on or prior to September 30, 2024 primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities, as well as through earnings from operations, including, in particular, those of Titan.

Our future capital requirements for our operations will depend on many factors, including the profitability of our businesses, the number and cash requirements of other acquisition candidates that we pursue, and the costs of our operations. We plan to generate positive cash flow from Titan to address some of our liquidity needs. However, to execute our business plan, service our existing indebtedness, finance our proposed acquisitions and implement our business strategy, we anticipate that we may need to obtain additional financing from time to time and may choose to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financings, a bank line of credit, borrowings from affiliates or other arrangements. We cannot be sure that any additional funding, if needed, will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Furthermore, any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or equity-linked securities may dilute our current stockholders’ ownership in us and could also result in a decrease in the market price of our common stock. The terms of those securities issued by us in future capital transactions may be more favorable to new investors and may include the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have a further dilutive effect. Furthermore, any debt financing, if available, may subject us to restrictive covenants and significant interest costs. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital, when needed, to continue operations in their current form.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our capital expenditures were approximately $0.2 million and approximately $3.3 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we offset our capital expenditures with approximately $69,000 in cash and cash equivalents from the Titan Merger and approximately $97,000 in proceeds from the disposal of property and equipment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we offset our capital expenditures with approximately $0.3 million from the proceeds from disposal of property and equipment.

We expect our capital expenditures for next 12 months will grow as we continue to expand the Titan operational activity. These capital expenditures will be primarily utilized for equipment needed to generate revenue and for office equipment. We expect to fund such capital expenditures out of our working capital.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation as of the date of the end of the period covered by this report, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer (collectively, our “Certifying Officers”) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, because of the disclosed material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon the evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of continuing weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting principally due to the following:

	-	We have not established adequate financial reporting processes or monitoring activities to ensure adequate financial reporting and to mitigate the risk of management override, specifically because there are few employees and only two officers with management functions and therefore there is lack of segregation of duties.

	-	An outside consultant assists in the preparation of the annual and quarterly financial statements and partners with us to ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

	-	We did not maintain a sufficient complement of qualified accounting personnel and controls associated with segregation of duties over complex transactions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended September 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

(a)	Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;

(b)	Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and

(c)	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrant’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of our business. Although the results of such litigation and claims in the ordinary course of business cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. Currently, there is no litigation pending against our company that could materially affect our company other than as follows:

As reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 filed with the SEC on October 6, 2023 in July 2022, a complaint was filed against our subsidiary, Titan Trucking LLC (“Titan”), in the Circuit Court for Macomb County, Michigan titled Wolverine Transfer and Recycling LLC v. Titan Trucking LLC (Case No. 22-002780-CB) for breach of contract. There have been no material developments in that lawsuit that we have not previously reported.

In July 2023, a complaint was filed against us and Ajay Sikka, a director of our company and our former chief executive officer, in the Circuit Court of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit, Lake County, Illinois titled Alta Waterford, LLC v. TraQiQ, Inc. and Ajay Sikka (Case No. 23LA00000476) for breach of contract. In the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that we breached contracts for the payment of compensation for investor relations and web development and copyright services allegedly provided by the plaintiff, which payment obligation was personally guaranteed by Mr. Sikka. The complaint seeks damages in the amount of $324,000, attorney fees and other unspecified litigation costs. We answered the complaint, denying all of the basic allegations, and the plaintiff then moved to strike our answer. We have since entered into an agreement with plaintiff pursuant to which we will file an amended answer on or before November 28, 2023. Once that amended answer has been filed, we will begin discovery. We have already requested that plaintiff produce all documents supporting its claim that it performed services under the contracts. The matter is currently scheduled for trial in Illinois in September 2024.

As of September 30, 2023, no accruals for loss contingencies have been recorded as the outcomes of these litigations is neither probable nor reasonably estimable.
