VOLCON, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Organization and Nature of Operations
Volcon, Inc. (“Volcon” or the “Company”) was formed on February 21, 2020, as a Delaware corporation, under the name Frog ePowersports, Inc. The Company was renamed Volcon, Inc. on October 1, 2020. Volcon designs and sells all-electric off-road powersport vehicles.
On January 5, 2021, the Company created Volcon ePowersports, LLC (“Volcon LLC”), a Colorado wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to sell Volcon vehicles and accessories in the United States. Since 2023 Volcon LLC has not been used for selling vehicles and accessories.
Going Concern
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has recurring losses and has generated negative cash flows from operations since inception.
In February and March 2024, certain holders of
the May 2023 Convertible Notes issued in May 2023 converted approximately $
As discussed further in Note 6 below, on May 22,
2024, the Company issued Senior Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $
On July 12, 2024, the Company sold shares
of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $29.20 per share and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common
stock at $29.19992 per pre-funded warrant. The Company received net proceeds of $
In October 2024, the Company established an At
the Market equity offering (“ATM”) whereby the Company can sell up to $
Management anticipates that our cash on hand as of March 31, 2025 plus the cash expected to be generated from operations will not be sufficient to fund planned operations beyond one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025. There can be no assurance that additional funding, if needed, would be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
| 8 |
Nasdaq Compliance
On July 5, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), which requires that it maintain a market value of listed securities (“MVLS”) of $35 million. MVLS is calculated by multiplying the Company’s shares outstanding by the closing price of its common stock. On December 19, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as the minimum bid price of its common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.
On December 26, 2023, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) as the closing bid price of our common stock had been below $0.10 for ten consecutive trading days from December 11, 2023 through December 22, 2023 and was subject to delisting on January 2, 2024. On January 4, 2024, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that it did not meet the MVLS requirement and it was subject to delisting. The Company submitted a hearing request to Nasdaq’s Hearings Department for both of these matters, which stayed the suspension of the Company’s common stock. The Company participated in a hearing with Nasdaq’s Hearings Department on March 26, 2024 and on April 2, 2024, they informed the Company that the Company had until June 24, 2024 to regain compliance with the above listing rules.
On June 11, 2024, the Company received a notice from the Nasdaq that the Company no longer met the minimum 500,000 publicly held shares requirement for Nasdaq and, as such, it no longer complied with Listing Rule 5550(a)(4). Furthermore, the notice indicated that this matter would serve as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq, that the Panel would consider this matter in their decision regarding the Company’s continued listing on Nasdaq, and that the Company should present its views with respect to this additional deficiency to the Panel in writing no later than June 18, 2024. On June 18, 2024, the Company submitted a letter to Nasdaq notifying them that the Company was in compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(4) due to the issuance of additional shares of common stock from the conversion of preferred stock to common stock by certain Preferred Stockholders.
On July 17, 2024, Nasdaq informed the Company that it had regained compliance with the above listing rules but will continue to be monitored for ongoing compliance.
On March 28, 2025, the Company’s common stock closing bid price was $0.9601 and has remained below $1.00 since this date. In the event the that the closing bid price does not increase to $1.00 or greater by May 9, 2025, the Company will not be in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and may be required to participate in a hearing with Nasdaq’s Hearings Department to present a plan to regain compliance, which could include completing another reverse stock split as noted in Note 2 below.
Impact of Tariffs on Imported Goods from China and Vietnam
On April 2, 2025, the U.S. imposed tariffs on goods imported from certain countries including China and Vietnam, where Volcon’s vehicles are manufactured, including a 10% base tariff for all imports. On April 9, 2025, the tariffs for China were increased while the tariffs for Vietnam were deferred for 90 days. Further adjustments to these tariffs could occur. These tariffs will significantly increase the cost of the Company’s vehicles and parts. The Company is currently evaluating options to import parts and assemble vehicles in the U.S. or continue to import vehicles and pay the higher tariffs and increase the selling price of vehicles.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2025. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted from this report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Results for the interim periods in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results and have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly our interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2025, and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and are consistent with the adjustments recorded to prepare the annual audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024.

On January 8, 2024, the Company notified the manufacturer of the Volcon

manufacturer of a suspension component for the Stag that due to the Company’s initial production forecast provided by the third
party manufacturer of the Stag, the vendor had acquired raw materials to fulfill several months’ worth of this component needed
for the forecast. Although the Company had provided updated forecasts to the third party manufacturer of the Stag, the revised forecasts
were not provided timely to this vendor. The Company entered into an agreement to pay for the excess raw materials by making weekly payments
of $13,791 through February 2026 and to purchase remaining finished goods. The Company recorded
an expense of $
On December 6, 2024, the Company
entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (“Agreement”) with the manufacturer of the Stag and Grunt EVO, pursuant
to which the Company and the manufacturer agreed to terminate the Supplier Agreement dated March 11, 2022 for the development and engineering
of the Volcon Stag vehicle prototypes; the Supplier Agreement dated May 29, 2022 for the manufacturing of the Volcon Grunt EVO motorcycle;
and the Supplier Agreement dated August 11, 2022 for the manufacturing of the Volcon Stag vehicle (collectively, the “Supplier Agreements”).

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. The Company does not believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
NOTE 3 – SEGMENT REPORTING
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requiring public companies to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public companies with a single report segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements of ASU 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company operates as one operating segment and the Company’s CEO is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM uses the consolidated statement of operations to assess financial performance, which is based on costs by department, and allocate resources. See the condensed consolidated statement of operations above.

| 11 |
The holders of the New Notes also received fully
vested warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase
Concurrent with the issuance of the New Notes,
the Company exchanged the Convertible Notes into two new notes, Series A Notes and Series B Notes both due February 24, 2024 (collectively
the “Exchange Notes” and collectively with the New Notes the “May 2023 Notes”). The aggregate principal amount
of Series A Notes was $
Events of default for the May 2023 Notes were defined in the note agreements and the Company was in compliance with all covenants until the May 2023 Notes were exchanged for Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) on March 4, 2024 as discussed below.
The Company recognized interest expense of $
The Company also exchanged the Note Warrants with an exercise price of $513,000.00 per share issued with the Convertible Notes in August 2022 for warrants which had an initial exercise price of $196,200.00 per share (the “Exchange Warrants”) and was adjusted to $135,000.00 per share upon stockholder approval received on August 3, 2023. The Exchange Warrants expire on August 24, 2027.
The conversion prices of the Exchange Notes, and the exercise prices of the New Warrants and Exchange Warrants (collectively the “May 2023 Warrants”) were subject to further adjustment in the event that the Company issues additional common stock, stock options, warrants or convertible notes with prices below the exercise price in effect at the time of issuance, or completes a stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization where the lowest day’s VWAP of the Company’s stock price is below the then exercise price in the five days following the stock split with a floor of $0.22 per share.
In September 2023, the Company and the holders
of the Exchange Warrants entered into a warrant inducement agreement whereby the Exchange Warrant holders agreed to exercise
Exchange Warrants at a reduced exercise price of $63,000.00 per share. The Company issued the holders 11 warrants (“Reload Warrants”)
with an initial exercise price of $
The May 2023 Warrants and Reload Warrants contained certain conversion limitations, providing that a holder thereof may not exercise such warrants to the extent that, if after giving effect to such conversion, the holder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024,

NOTE 7 - WARRANT LIABILITIES
Series A and Series B Warrants
As discussed in Note 9 below, the Company issued
Series A and Series B Warrants (the “November 2023 Warrants”) in connection with the sale of common units and pre-funded warrant
units. Under the terms of the November 2023 Warrants, the number and exercise price are subject to adjustment if the Company completes
certain transactions specified in these warrant agreements. In addition, the Series A Warrants have a cashless exercise provision, if
approved by stockholders, which would allow holders to cashless exercise one warrant for three shares of the Company’s common stock.
Such adjustments were subject to stockholder approval (which was received on January 12, 2024). The Company initially determined that
these warrants should be classified as liabilities and used a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value until stockholder approval
of the cashless exercise provision was completed.
Subsequent to the approval by stockholders of the cashless exercise
provision of the Series A Warrant, the fair value of each Series A Warrant is the value of three shares of the Company’s common
stock. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a loss of $
In the three months ended March 31, 2024, the
Company recognized a loss of $

On March 4, 2024, the Company designated shares of Preferred Stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $ per share and exchanged the remaining May 2023 Notes (principal of $24,694,670) for Preferred Stock. For each $1,000 of May 2023 Note principal, one share of Preferred Stock was issued with a stated value of $1,000, and any principal held by an investor below $1,000 was granted one additional share of Preferred Stock. A total of 24,698 shares were issued in connection with the exchange. The Preferred Stock is initially convertible into share of the Company’s common stock at $1,064.00 per share. Conversion of Preferred Stock to common stock of the Company by the holders of the Preferred Stock is limited based on ownership restrictions of either 4.99% or 9.99%. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for anti-dilution provisions with an initial floor of $784.00 per share, subject to adjustment to $400.00 per share if stockholder approval is received. The stockholders approved this adjustment at the 2024 annual meeting held on May 28, 2024.
The Preferred Stock conversion price per share
is subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split based on the lowest 5-day daily VWAP in the five days subsequent to the completion
of a stock split. As a result of the reverse stock split completed on June 6, 2024, the conversion price of the Preferred Stock was adjusted

November 2023 Common Units and Pre-Funded Warrant Units
On November 17, 2023, the Company sold (i) common units (“Common Units”), each consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock, a Series A warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $19,800.00 per share or pursuant to an alternative cashless exercise option (described below), which warrant will expire on the five-year anniversary of the original issuance date (the “Series A Warrants”) and a Series B warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $30,240.00 per share, which warrant will expire on the five-year anniversary of the original issuance date (the “Series B Warrants” and together with the Series A Warrants, the “Warrants”); and (ii) pre-funded units (the “Pre-funded Units” and together with the Common Units, the “Units”), each consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock (the “Pre-funded Warrants”), a Series A Warrant and a Series B Warrant. The purchase price of each Common Unit was $15,120.00, and the purchase price of each Pre-Funded Unit was $15,119.64. The Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. All of the Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised by January 9, 2024.
In addition, the Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase additional shares of common stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, representing up to 15% of the number of common stock and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the Public Offering, and/or additional 24 Series A Warrants representing up to 15% of the Series A Warrants sold in the Public Offering, and/or additional 24 Series B Warrants representing up to 15% of the Series B Warrants sold in the Public Offering solely to cover over-allotments, if any. The underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option with respect to 24 Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants. A total of each of Series A and B Warrants were issued in the transaction.

Share Combination Event Adjustments
Conditioned upon the receipt of the Warrant Stockholder Approval at a required special meeting of stockholders (“Special Meeting”), if at any time on or after the date of issuance there occurs any share split, share dividend, share combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Company’s common stock (collectively a “Share Event”) and the lowest daily VWAP during the five consecutive trading days prior to the date of such event and the five consecutive trading days after the date of such event is less than the exercise price then in effect, then the exercise price of the Series A Warrant shall be reduced to the lowest daily VWAP during such period and the number of warrant shares issuable shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price on the date of issuance. Approval of this adjustment by the stockholders was made on January 12, 2024.
Cashless Exercise
If at the time a holder exercises its Series A Warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants under the Securities Act is not then effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Series A Warrants.
Conditioned upon the receipt of the Warrant Stockholder Approval at a required Special Meeting, a holder of Series A Warrants may also provide notice and elect an “alternative cashless exercise” pursuant to which they would receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series A Warrant and (y) 3.0. Approval of this adjustment by the stockholders was made on January 12, 2024.
The number of Series A Warrants were adjusted
for the reverse stock splits completed during 2024 and as a result of the February 6, 2025 common stock unit and prefunded warrant unit
offering in accordance with the Share Event provision noted above. As of March 31, 2025,
Series B Warrants
Each Series B Warrant offered had an initial exercise
price per share equal to $
The number of Series B Warrants and exercise prices were adjusted for the reverse stock split completed on February 2, 2024 and when the Company exchanged the May 2023 Notes for Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the Share Event provisions of the Series B Warrants.
On May 17, 2024, the Company entered into separate warrant amendment agreements (collectively, the “Warrant Amendment”) with the holders of a majority-in-interest of the holders of the Company’s Series B warrants issued November 2023. Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, all outstanding Series B Warrants were amended to delete the following sections: (i) a provision providing for the adjustment of the exercise price and number of shares issuable pursuant to the Series B Warrants if the Company completed a future offering at a price per share less the exercise price of the Series B Warrants then in effect; and (ii) a provision providing for the adjustment of the exercise price and number of shares issuable pursuant to the Series B Warrants if price of the Company’s common stock after the completion of a share split, share dividend, share combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction is less the exercise price of the Series B Warrants then in effect. In addition, the Warrant Amendment provides that the holders may also exercise the Series B Warrants on a cashless basis and receive an aggregate number of shares equal the product of the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants by means of a cashless exercise rather than a cash exercise, multiplied by 0.81.

In January 2021, the Company’s board of directors adopted the Volcon, Inc. 2021 Stock Plan, (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan is a stock-based compensation plan that provides for discretionary grants of stock options, stock awards, and restricted stock unit awards to employees, members of the board of directors and consultants (including restricted stock units issued prior to the adoption of the plan as further discussed below). The Company has reserved shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the 2021 Plan. To the extent that an award, if forfeitable, expires, terminates or lapses, or an award is otherwise settled in cash without the delivery of shares of common stock to the participant, then any unpaid shares subject to the award will be available for future grant or issuance under the 2021 Plan. There are shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan as of March 31, 2025. Awards vest according to each agreement and as long as the employee remains employed with the Company or the consultant continues to provide services in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
In August 2024, as part of the compensation package for the Company’s Chief Sales Officer, the Company granted stock options outside of the 2021 Plan with an exercise price of $. In April 2025, the Company cancelled these stock options.

The basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of common shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted net loss per common share is equal to basic net loss per share due to the Company’s net loss and any potentially issuable shares are anti-dilutive.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains audited financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2025 or any future period.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by the Company, contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions.
In addition, from time to time, we or our representatives may make forward-looking statements orally or in writing. We base these forward-looking statements on our expectations and projections about future events, which we derive from the information currently available to us. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance, including: our financial performance and projections; our growth in revenue and earnings; our product development and production releases; and our business prospects and opportunities. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “hopes” or the negative of these or similar terms. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including: our ability to change the direction of the Company; our ability to keep pace with new technology and changing market needs; and the competitive environment of our business. These and other factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are only predictions. The forward-looking events discussed in this document and other statements made from time to time by us or our representatives, may not occur, and actual events and results may differ materially and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us. We are not obligated to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this document and other statements made from time to time by us or our representatives might not occur.
While we believe we have identified material risks, these risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Form 10-Q describe additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q to conform our prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and we do not intend to do so.

Overview
We are an all-electric, off-road powersports vehicle company selling Volcon electric two-wheeled E-Bikes and motorcycles, utility terrain vehicles, or UTVs, also known as side-by-sides, and golf carts, along with a line of upgrades and accessories. In January 2025, we also entered into a distribution agreement with a golf cart manufacturer, Super Sonic Company Ltd. (“Super Sonic”) located in Vietnam, and a subsidiary of Odes Industry, to supply golf carts to other companies in the United States who sell golf carts.
Two-Wheeled Products
We began selling the Grunt in September 2021 and
the Grunt EVO replaced the Grunt in September 2023. Due to the manufacturing cost of the Grunt EVO, we terminated the manufacturing contract
for it in December 2024. As of March 31, 2025, we have sold all of the remaining Grunt EVO units.
Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, we began
evaluating other potential electric motorcycle offerings. We are determining what features and specifications would be included for new
offerings including considering a street legal version that would be dual purpose as an on-road/off-road motorcycle (not highway legal).
We have identified one new model which we are working on developing with a third party manufacturer. We received prototypes in February
2025 and we are testing them to evaluate the feasibility to produce and sell them. Provided testing is successful and whether the product
cost, including tariffs, allow for us to sell this product, we expect to start selling this product in the second half of 2025.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, we began selling an E-Bike, the Brat which is manufactured by a third party. The Brat is a class 2 E-Bike and can be used on-road or off-road.
We will continue to evaluate other potential two-wheel product offerings throughout 2025.
| 23 |
Utility Terrain Vehicles (UTVs)
Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, the Company began discussions with various third party manufacturers of electric UTVs to identify models that we could purchase. These models would be primarily used for utility purposes, have two or three passenger options, a dump bed or flatbed for hauling cargo, with speeds up to 30 miles per hour. These models may also include an enclosed cab with optional air conditioning.
During 2024, we signed an agreement with a manufacturer to distribute one of these utility UTV models, the VLCN HF1 in North America for five years, which includes a royalty agreement with the manufacturer for them to distribute the vehicle outside of North America. Royalties would commence in the third year of this agreement.
We also signed another agreement with Super Sonic to distribute other light UTV models, the VLCN MN1 in the United States. The VLCN MN1 has two models, the MN1 Adventurer, a golf cart style product, which has four seats with a fold down rear seat to accommodate light cargo and the MN1 Tradesman which has two seats with a dump bed for utility purposes.
Since both the MN1 and HF1 vehicles are manufactured outside of the U.S. we are subject to potential tariffs that could significantly impact our cost to sell these vehicles in the U.S. We are currently evaluating options to sell these vehicles in countries outside the U.S. through distributors.
Distribution and Supplier Agreements
Exclusive Distribution Agreement
In January 2025, we signed an exclusive distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with the manufacturer of the MN1s to distribute their golf carts in the United States and its territories. Super Sonic appointed us to act as their exclusive distributor of certain of their golf cart products (the “Products”), in the U.S. Super Sonic agreed to recommend us as the sole provider for all Products to all their customers in the U.S. Super Sonic has the right to sell non-Volcon branded Products to other customers and shall pay 5% of the order price to us. Before the end of June 2025, we agreed to provide a procurement plan, and if we fail to meet the minimum purchase requirement described in the procurement plan for two consecutive months, Super Sonic shall have the right to immediately terminate the Distribution Agreement. During the term of the Distribution Agreement, to the extent we sell any Volcon-branded products (the “Volcon Products”) that are similar to the Products, we agreed to provide Super Sonic with a right of first refusal to manufacture the Volcon Products. We may be required to issue our common stock, warrants to purchase our common stock and the right to appoint a director to our board of directors if certain golf cart sales volumes are attained.
Supply Agreement
On February 24, 2025, we
entered into a supply agreement with Venom-EV LLC (“Venom”) to supply Venom with certain golf carts. This agreement was amended
and restated on April 25, 2025 (the “Supply Agreement”). The Supply Agreement allows Venom to purchase up to $2 million of
golf carts with payment terms of the earlier of 100 days from the date the golf carts are shipped from the manufacturer’s facility
or upon sale to Venom’s dealers or to consumers. These golf carts will be purchased through a manufacturer specified in the Supply
Agreement and we will receive consideration of the cost of the golf carts plus a five percent margin. We received an initial order from
Venom for $2.0 million golf carts and paid a deposit to the manufacturer of $0.6 million on May 2, 2025. The remaining $1.4 million will
be paid as golf carts are completed and ready for shipment which is expected to be in the second quarter of 2025.

Customers
Dealers
We sell our products through powersports dealers, bicycle retailers, and golf cart dealers. As of May 5, 2025, we have 129 active powersports dealers, 20 active bicycle dealers and 14 golf cart dealers. For dealers who qualify for credit, we offer dealers payment terms of 30 to 90 days to make larger purchases of our vehicles provided their order is within their established credit limit. For dealers that do not qualify for credit, they must pay for their order prior to shipment. Powersports dealers can order any of our available products, bicycle retailers can order the Brat, and golf cart dealers can order either version of the MN1. We have entered into an accounts receivable factoring arrangement to allow us the ability to generate cash for working capital. We have agreements with third party financing companies to provide financing to qualified customers of dealers or customers purchasing from our website. There is no recourse to us or the dealer if the customer defaults on the financing agreement with the third party.
Consumers
Consumers can purchase the Brat from our website and have it delivered to a location of their choosing in the continental U.S.
International Distributors
We also sell our two-wheel products internationally through importers. Each importer buys vehicles by the container and sells vehicles and accessories to local dealers or directly to consumers. Payment for orders is required in advance of shipment, except in a few limited instances. Local dealers or the importer will provide warranty and repair services for vehicles purchased in their country. As of May 5, 2025, we have signed agreements with six importers in Latin America, one importer for the Caribbean Region, collectively referred to herein as the LATAM importers, and one importer each in New Zealand, Australia and Japan to sell our two-wheel vehicles and accessories in their assigned countries/markets. In 2025, we expect to expand our global sales of our vehicles and accessories beyond our current distributor base and offer our four-wheel products to these customers.
Manufacturers
We outsource the manufacturing of all of our vehicles
and accessories to third party manufacturers and suppliers. The estimated fulfillment of all two-wheeled and UTV orders we have received,
or will receive, assumes that our third party manufacturers can successfully meet our order quantities and deadlines. We have experienced
delays due to our third party manufacturers being unable to timely meet our order deadlines, and there is no assurance that we will not
experience delays in the future until such time as we are able to source products from multiple manufacturers or from larger, more established
manufacturers. If they are unable to satisfy orders on a timely basis, our customers may cancel their orders. Also, due to the limited
number of third party manufacturers who manufacture our products, if any one of them experiences financial hardship and cannot manufacture
our products, our customers may cancel their orders which will harm our sales. All of our products are manufactured internationally. Due
to the change in tariffs announced in April 2025, the cost of our products will increase and could increase further if additional changes
in import laws or tariffs occur. We could also experience delays in receiving shipments of our products if there are delays in getting
carriers to ship our products or delays at the port of entry.

Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $736,049 which represents sales of Grunt EVOs of $304,905, Brats of $99,458, HF1s of $142,121, MN1-Adventurers of $91,717, MN1-Tradesman of $33,799, and accessories and parts of $24,345.
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1,033,548 which represents sales of Grunt EVOs of $329,617, Stag of $39,999, Brats of $532,806, Volcon Youth of $93,757, and accessories and parts of $34,103.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $781,383, including payroll costs of $86,254 for employees performing product fulfillment, logistics management, and service and warranty and facilities costs of $123,863. Product costs were $224,281 for Grunt EVOs, $119,789 for Brats, $126,101 for HF1s and $131,437 for MN1s.
| 26 |
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1,621,580, including payroll costs of $94,320, which was partially offset by a stock-based compensation benefit of $10,641, for employees performing product fulfillment, logistics management, and service and warranty. Product costs were $343,981 for Grunt EVOs, $228,893 for the Stag which included costs for the one Stag sold in the amount of $43,412 and $10,429 for customized inventory related to the sale of the Stag, $582,550 for Brats and $42,311 for Volcon Youth. Also Included in the Stag product costs is $95,548 of expense related to accruing a loss on sales of units to a customer who initially ordered models that we will not be producing. The Company offered to substitute additional units of the Stag LTD at no additional charge to replace those units. Also relating to Stag costs is $52,503 in inbound freight and tariffs for Stag raw materials. Facilities costs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $105,950 for our warehouse facility and third party warehousing costs.
For the remainder of 2025 we expect revenue to increase due to the expected increase in sales of our products. We expect product costs to increase due to increased sales as well as increased tariffs since our products are manufactured outside the U.S. but it is difficult to predict in the current political environment. Product cost savings may be realized if the third party manufacturer for our vehicles can source or manufacture parts at a lower cost.
Sales and Marketing Expense
Sales and marketing expenses relate to costs to increase exposure and awareness for our products and developing our network of U.S. dealers and international distributors.
Sales and marketing expenses were $510,957 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and were primarily related to expenses associated with promoting our products and brand of $101,517 employee payroll costs of $198,319, and professional fees of $72,551 for fees paid to a third party distributor, third- party sales consultants and legal fees.
Sales and marketing expenses were $760,564 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and were primarily related to expenses associated with promoting our products and brand of $215,429, employee payroll costs of $453,191, including $112,500 for severance costs for our former chief marketing officer (“CMO”), which was partially offset by stock-based compensation benefit of $55,071 for cancellation of unvested share based awards to the CMO and other marketing employees whose positions were eliminated in the period and the CMO’s unvested share based awards.
For the remainder of 2025 we expect sales expenses to increase as we begin expanding our international distributors and selling commissions for increased sales of our products. We expect marketing expenses to increase to promote the MN1 and HF1 products and to launch the two-wheel motorcycle that will replace the Grunt EVO.
Product Development Expense
Product development expenses relate to the development and testing of our products and process to manufacture these products.
Product development expenses were $388,523 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and were primarily related to expenses associated with employee payroll costs of $249,354, and facilities costs of $56,782.
Product development expenses were $814,945 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and were primarily related to expenses associated with employee payroll costs of $436,902, stock-based compensation of $42,604 for share-based awards granted to employees, facilities costs of $63,856, travel costs primarily related to beginning production of Stag of $53,326 and prototype costs of $91,925.
For the remainder of 2025 we expect product development
costs related to employee costs to remain consistent with the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and we expect an increase in prototype expenses
as we develop the dual sport motorcycle.
| 27 |
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses relate to costs for our finance, accounting and administrative functions to support the development, manufacturing and sales of our products.
General and administrative expenses were $1,561,657 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and were primarily related to expenses associated with employee payroll costs of $550,402, professional fees of $260,187 (including auditor fees of $77,250, legal fees of $58,697 and consulting fees of $124,240), software costs of $123,629, insurance costs of $450,388, and board compensation expense of $50,000.
General and administrative expenses were $2,080,794 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and were primarily related to expenses associated with employee payroll costs of $579,363, stock-based compensation of $21,187 for share-based awards granted to employees, professional fees of $412,715 (including legal fees of $195,377, tax and accounting fees of $23,200 and audit fees of $146,925), software costs of $141,551, insurance costs of $662,927, and public company expense costs of $102,721.
For the remainder of 2025 we expect general and administrative expenses to remain consistent. Costs such as product liability insurance may increase due to the introduction of new products and increased sales.
Interest and Other Expenses
Interest and other income/expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was insignificant.
Interest and other income/expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $21,803,709. Non-cash interest expense of $314,838 was recognized for the amortization of debt issuance costs and accretion of principal on the May 2023 Notes through the date these notes were exchanged for Preferred Stock. We recorded a loss on the conversion of some of these notes of $333,544 and a loss from the exchange of these notes for Preferred Stock of $1,314,064. We recorded a loss on the change in the estimated fair value of the Series A and Series B Warrant liabilities of $20,004,342 which was partially offset by a gain of $165,355 from the exercise of some of the Series B Warrants.
Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $2,460,430. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $26,048,044.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On March 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $17.7 million, including $0.1 million of restricted cash, and we had working capital of $16.4 million. Since inception we have funded our operations from proceeds from debt and equity sales.
Cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and includes all of our operating costs, except non-cash costs of depreciation and amortization, loss on change in derivative financial liabilities and stock-based compensation, all of which were insignificant for the period. Significant uses/contributions of cash used in operating activities includes a decrease of $0.4 million in inventory and inventory deposits, an increase of $0.4 million in prepaid assets, a decrease of $0.2 million in accounts payable, and a decrease of $0.7 million in accrued liabilities primarily due to payments on vendor settlements, $0.1 million used to pay our lease liabilities and $0.2 million for fulfillment of sales where customers had previously placed deposits.
| 28 |
Net cash used in operating activities was $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and includes all of our operating costs except depreciation and amortization of $0.1 million, non-cash interest expense for the amortization of debt issuance costs and accretion of principal on the May 2023 Notes of $0.3 million, loss on change in derivative financial liabilities of $20.0 million, losses on conversion and exchange of Convertible Notes of $1.6 million and $0.2 million from the loss on disposal of fixed assets. Cash used in operating activities includes an increase in accounts receivable of $0.1 million due to sales to our U.S. dealers, an increase of $0.5 million in prepaid inventory deposits primarily for purchases of Stag raw materials, a decrease of $0.5 million in accounts payable, and an increase of $0.3 million in accrued liabilities. As of March 31, 2024, we have a decrease of $0.3 million in customer deposits, primarily due to orders being fulfilled for two of our Latin American distributors for shipments of Brats and Grunt EVOs paid for previously.
Cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily consisting of purchases of equipment and tooling.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily consisting of $0.1 million of purchases of equipment and tooling.
Cash provided by financing activities
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $19.1 million and was primarily related to proceeds of $8.8 million from the sale of our common stock from the At the Market offering, proceeds of $10.7 million from the sale of common stock units and prefunded warrant units, partially offset by share repurchases of $0.4 million.
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $0.1 million and was primarily related to proceeds from the exercise of Series B Warrants.
Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attain profitable operations and if necessary, obtain continued financial support from the issuance of debt or equity. As of March 31, 2025, we had incurred an accumulated deficit of $168.8 million since inception.
Management anticipates that our cash and cash equivalents on hand as of March 31, 2025 will not be sufficient to fund planned operations beyond one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025. We do not have any current commitments for future financing, and there can be no assurance that such additional funding would be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional financing, we will be required to modify or curtail our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
JOBS Act Accounting Election
The recently enacted JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.
We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and may impact our financial statements and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the appropriate time periods, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer, who serves as our principal executive officer, and Chief Financial Officer, who serves as our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. We, under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025 to provide assurance 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 in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures as we have previously missed filing certain forms timely and we have not implemented and tested controls and procedures to conclude that we have remediated this deficiency. Notwithstanding this conclusion, we believe that our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods covered thereby in all material respects. Management is working to identify corrective actions for the weakness and will periodically re-evaluate the need to add personnel and implement improved review procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may be involved in legal proceedings, the outcomes of which may not be determinable. The results of litigation are inherently unpredictable. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time and result in diversion of significant resources. We are not able to estimate an aggregate amount or range of reasonably possible losses for those legal matters for which losses are not probable and estimable. We have insurance policies covering potential losses where such coverage is cost effective.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors included in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
We have in the past failed to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, and if we fail to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market in the future, we will not be afforded traditional cure periods under Nasdaq rules and our common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq, which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.
Since March 28, 2025 our common stock closing bid price has been below $1.00. If our common stock closing bid price continues to be below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, we will be out of compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Until July 17, 2025, we are subject to a Nasdaq Discretionary Panel Monitor and due to this Panel Monitor, in the event that we have another deficiency or deficiencies, we will immediately go back into Nasdaq’s hearings process. In the event that the Nasdaq Hearings Department does not grant us an extension to demonstrate compliance our common stock would be delisted from Nasdaq and trading of our common stock could be conducted only in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such an event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our common stock, and there would likely also be a reduction in our coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a major exchange.
The new Administration has introduced tariff increases that apply to all our products which are sourced from Asian suppliers.
On April 2, 2025, the U.S. imposed tariffs on goods imported from certain countries including China and Vietnam, where Volcon’s vehicles are manufactured, including a 10% base tariff for all imports. On April 9, 2025, the tariffs for China were increased while the tariffs for Vietnam were deferred for 90 days. Further adjustments to these tariffs could occur. These tariffs will significantly increase the cost of the Company’s vehicles and parts. The Company is currently evaluating options to import parts and assemble vehicles in the U.S. or continue to import vehicles and pay the higher tariffs and increase the selling price of vehicles.
In the event a mutual trade agreement is not reached between the U.S. and these countries in the short-term and we find it necessary to begin purchasing a significant level of our inventory components from China and Vietnam at post-tariff prices, we would be faced with a decision as to whether we should attempt to pass along such tariff increases to our customers through higher prices for our products or absorbing them internally, or some combination of those two alternatives. Either circumstance would likely materially adversely affect our sales and/or our profitability.
