NOTE－2ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND 

VIVIC CORP. (the "Company" or “VIVC”) is a corporation established under the corporation laws in the State of Nevada on February 16, 2017. Starting December 27, 2018, associated with the change of management, we expanded our business operations to include new types of marine tourism.  In addition, the Company started making efforts to enter into the businesses of constructing marinas and constructing yachts in the mainland China under the brand of Monte Fino. Monte Fino is a famous yacht brand owned by Taiwan Kha Shing Yacht Company, one of the leading yacht manufacturers in the world.

It has also developed and operates “Joy Wave”(享浪)，an online yacht rental and leisure service business in Guangzhou, China. In the mainland China and Taiwan, primarily through the Internet, we provide third-party yacht and marine tourism services.  This marine tourism involves high quality coastal tourism attractions in Taiwan and China including Hainan, Guangdong, Xiamen, and Quanzhou.

In the field of marine tourism, the number of yachts that can be rented has been increased through a yacht-sharing program system, which can provide services for more customers.

The Company also started to develop energy-saving yacht engines. Because it has advanced technology, it can achieve up to 50% energy efficiency. This energy-saving and innovative technology may be applied to new energy-saving engines for yachts. This innovative technology may bring favorable changes to the yachting industry and promote a low-carbon tourism for global environmental protection.

On January 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture and Cooperation Agreement to acquire 60% of Shenzhen Ocean Way Yachts Services Co., Ltd and its subsidiaries.

On May 11, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary namely Guangzhou Khashing Yacht Company Limited ceased its operation and de-registered.

On June 23, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary namely Vivic Corporation (Fujian) Co., Limited ceased its operation and de-registered.

On July 13, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary namely Shenzhen Cheng Tou Yacht Development Co., Ltd ceased its operation and de-registered.

On September 23, 2021, the Company acquired the additional 25% of Vivic Corporation (Hong Kong) Co., Limited.

VIVC and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as (the “Company”).

NOTE－3SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.

lUse of estimates 

In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

lRisks and Uncertainties 

(1)The Company’s auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that the Company can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months if the Company does not generate more revenues or obtain more funds for its business operations. There is no assurance that the Company can generate more revenues or obtain more investments.  

(2)The Company faces strong competition from well-established companies and small independent companies. The Company will be at a competitive disadvantage in obtaining the facilities, employees, financing and other resources required to provide its services and products to customers. The Company’s opportunity to obtain customers may be limited by its financial resources and other assets. 

(3)The Company relies on the health and growth of the tourism industry. Tourism is highly sensitive to business and personal discretionary spending levels, and thus tends to decline during general economic downturns. In addition, other adverse trends or events that tend to reduce tourism are likely to reduce our revenues. Also, due to the nature of its business, the Company may be subject to liability claims arising out of accidents or disasters causing injury to its customers, including claims for serious personal injury or death. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient insurance coverage at acceptable premium levels in the future. Successful assertion against one or a series of large uninsured claims, or of one or a series of claims exceeding our insurance, could adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.   

(4)The Company has a trademark in China and will continue the process of applying trademarks in Taiwan and US.  There is no assurance that the trademark registration can be obtained timely. 

9

(5)The Company is unable to afford establishing an audit committee due to limited operations and lack of revenue. 

(6)As a Nevada corporation, the Company plans to be able to carry out business in the United States eventually. However, currently we don’t have any substantial asset in the U.S. and we may not be able to own any substantial asset in the near future. Lack of substantial assets will make it difficult for us to launch business operations and cause delay to the execution of our business plans in the U.S. 

(7)The Company has not used a private placement memorandum, a registered stock offering or any other type of formal disclosure connected with prior sales of securities.  Therefore, there is risk that investors might seek to reverse prior purchase transactions and ask for a return of their money. 

lBasis of consolidation 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of VIVC and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

lCash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in readily available checking and saving accounts. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and that mature within three months or less from the date of purchase. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.

lAccounts receivable  

ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.

lIncome taxes 

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, 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 basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any 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.

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

The Company is subject to tax in local and foreign jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities.

lForeign currencies translation 

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollar ("US$") and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company and subsidiaries are operating in PRC and Hong Kong maintain their books and record in their local currency, Renminbi (“RMB”) and Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of changes in stockholder’s equity.

Translation of amounts from RMB and HK$ into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the period ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

lLease 

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. However, certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as prepaid or accrued lease payments. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.). Subsequently, the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on the respective relative fair values to the lease components and non-lease components.

11

The Company made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components. Each lease component and the related non-lease components are accounted for together as a single component.

lNoncontrolling interest 

The Company accounts for noncontrolling interest in accordance with ASC Topic 810-10-45, which requires the Company to present noncontrolling interests as a separate component of total shareholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated net loss attributable to the its noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

lNet loss per share 

The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

lRelated parties 

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

lConcentrations and credit risk 

The Company’s principal financial instruments subject to potential concentration of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents, including amounts held in money market accounts. The Company places cash deposits with a federally insured financial institution. The Company maintains its cash at banks and financial institutions it considers to be of high credit quality; however, the Company’s domestic cash deposits may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s insured limit. Balances in excess of federally insured limitations may not be insured. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts, and management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

lFair value of financial instruments 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding short-term bank borrowing and note payable): cash and cash equivalents, accounts and retention receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax payable, amount due to a related party, other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Management believes, based on the current market prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of note payable approximate the carrying amount.

The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820-10"), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

lRecent accounting pronouncements 

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The standard is expected to reduce cost and complexity related to accounting for income taxes. The new guidance eliminates certain exceptions and clarifies and amends existing guidance to promote consistent application among reporting entities. Depending on the amended guidance within this standard, adoption is to be applied on a retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

12

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” The new guidance clarifies the interactions between accounting standards that apply to equity investments without readily determinable fair values. Specifically, it addresses the accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

NOTE－4GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company has suffered from net loss of $2,203,628 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Also, at September 30, 2021, the Company has incurred the accumulated deficits of $3,382,040 and working capital deficit of $824,816. In addition, with respect to the ongoing and evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, which was designated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, the outbreak has caused substantial disruption in international economies and global trades and if repercussions of the outbreak are prolonged, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s business.

The continuation of the Company as a going concern through September 30, 2022 is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the Company is currently pursuing additional financing for its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.

These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

NOTE－5BUSINESS COMBINATION
