Explanatory Note

On November 16, 2021, Ideanomics, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing that the Company determined that our previously issued financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021 should no longer be relied upon due to errors in such condensed consolidated financial statements related to revenue reported by our affiliate Timios Holding Corp. (“Timios”), that provides title and agency services.

The errors were uncovered as part of the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021. The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021 also identified additional transactions and accounting practices not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”).

This Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021 (“Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A” or “Amendment No. 1) reflects the correction of the following errors identified subsequent to the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021, which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 17, 2021 (the “Original Form 10-Q”):

A.The Company determined that it did not present Timios title and agency services revenue and the related cost of revenue in accordance with US GAAP on the condensed consolidated statement of operations, as premiums from title insurance policies written by independent agencies were presented on a gross basis and did not properly present revenue and cost of revenue net of commission costs.
B.The Company discovered that it did not properly account for its investment in Technology Metals Market Limited (“TM2”) in accordance with the equity method of accounting. In addition, the Company determined that it incorrectly presented equity income (loss) on its equity method investments as a component of interest and other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations rather than as a separate financial statement caption below income taxes.
C.The Company discovered certain errors in determining the estimated fair value of acquired intangible assets in its purchase price allocation for its acquisitions.
D.The Company determined that the errors in determining the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in its acquisitions resulted in an additional reduction to the Company’s deferred tax liabilities.
E.The Company determined that it did not properly recognize income tax expense (benefit) for certain acquired entities subsequent to their respective acquisitions during the period ended March 31, 2021.

For the convenience of the reader, we have included all items in this Amendment No. 1 which supersedes in its entirety the Original Form 10-Q.

The following sections in the Original Form 10-Q have been revised in this Amendment No. 1 to reflect the restatement:

Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements”
Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Ideanomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDEX) is a Nevada corporation that primarily operates in Asia and the United States through its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs.”) Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” in these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements refers to Ideanomics, Inc., its consolidated subsidiaries and VIEs.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. Through March 31, 2021, the Company operates in one segment with two business units, Ideanomics Mobility and Ideanomics Capital.

With two acquisitions closing in the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company anticipates that its internal management structure and the information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker will change such that it may, in the future, have multiple reportable segments. At a minimum these are thought to be Ideanomics Mobility, which would encompass the entities with businesses centered in the electric vehicle (“EV”) market, and Ideanomics Capital, which would encompass business centered in the finance/real estate market, and a corporate entity, with the combination/consolidation of all three comprising the consolidated operations of the Company.

Ideanomics Mobility is driving EV adoption by assembling a synergistic ecosystem of subsidiaries and investments across the three key pillars of EV: Vehicles, Charging, and Energy. These three pillars provide the foundation for Ideanomics Mobility’s planned offering of unique business solutions such as Charging as a Service (“CaaS”) and Vehicle as a Service (“VaaS.”)

Ideanomics Capital is the Company’s fintech business unit, which focuses on leveraging technology and innovation to improve efficiency, transparency, and profitability for the financial services industry.

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessary be indicative of annual results.

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2021 (“2020 Form 10-K.”)

Immaterial Revision to Prior Period

The Company determined that a legal agreement the Company entered into whereby the Company took possession of a property in Qingdao, China for no consideration was incorrectly accounted for as a lease in accordance with ASC 842, Leases.  The Company determined that the error was immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements, however, the Company has revised its condensed consolidated financial statements to properly account for this transaction.  The adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 is, as follows (in thousands):

See Note 2 for adjustments for this matter as of and for the period ended March 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the Company’s estimates, including those related to the bad debt allowance, variable considerations, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets (including digital currencies) and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, asset retirement obligations, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. The Company bases its estimates on assumptions, both historical and forward looking, that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Significant Accounting Policies

For a detailed discussion about Ideanomics’ significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in Ideanomics’ consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company acquired two businesses, Timios Holdings Corp. (“Timios”) and Wireless Advanced Vehicle Electrification, Inc. (“WAVE”) which resulted in the adoption of the following accounting policies with respect to those businesses:

Timios

Title Revenue

Premiums from title insurance policies written by independent agencies are recognized net of commission costs when the policies are reported to Timios and not before the effective date of the policy. Regulation of title insurance rates varies by state. Premiums are charged to customers based on rates predetermined in coordination with each states’ respective Department of Insurance.

Closing Revenue

A closing or escrow is a transaction pursuant to an agreement of a buyer, seller, borrower, or lender wherein an impartial third-party, such as Timios, acts in a fiduciary capacity on behalf of the parties in accordance with the terms of such

14

Table of Contents

agreement in order to accomplish the directions stated therein. Services provided include, among others, acting as escrow or other fiduciary agent, obtaining releases, and conducting the actual closing or settlement. Closing and escrow fees are recognized upon closing of the escrow, which is generally at the same time of the closing of the related real estate transaction.

Appraisal Revenue

Revenue from appraisal services are primarily related to establishing the ownership, legal status and valuation of the property in a real estate transaction. In these cases, Timios does not issue a title insurance policy or perform duties of an escrow agent. Revenues from these services are recognized upon delivery of the service to the customer.

Title Plant

Title plant consists of costs incurred to construct the title plant and to obtain, organize and summarize historical information for Glenn County title searches. These costs were capitalized until such time as the plant was deemed operational to conduct title searches and issue title insurance policies. Management has determined that the title plant has been properly maintained, has an indeterminable life, and in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 950, Financial Services – Title Plant, has not been amortized. The costs to maintain the current status of the title plant are recorded as a current period expense.

Software Development Costs

Software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software, is capitalized during the application development stage. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company begins to capitalize costs to develop software when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used as intended. Once the project has been completed, these costs are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally estimated to be three years. Costs incurred prior to meeting these criteria together with costs incurred for training and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The Company classifies software development costs associated with the development of the Company’s products and services as intangible assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company capitalized software development costs of $0.3 million.

Escrow and Trust Deposits

In providing escrow services, Timios holds funds for others in a fiduciary capacity, pending completion of real estate transactions. A separate, self-balancing set of accounting records is maintained by Timios to record escrow transactions. Escrow trust funds held for others are not Timios’s and, therefore, are excluded from the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, however, Timios remains contingently liable for the disposition of these deposits. Escrow trust balances at March 31, 2021 were $77.8 million. It is a common industry practice for financial institutions where escrow funds are deposited to either reimburse or to directly provide for certain costs related to the delivery of escrow services. Timios follows the practice of non-recognition of costs borne by the financial institution where escrow funds are deposited.

WAVE

Inventory

Inventories, which include the costs of material, labor and overhead, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost generally computed on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. Estimated losses from obsolete and slow-moving inventories are recorded to reduce inventory values to their estimated net realizable value and are charged to costs of revenue. At the point of loss recognition, a new cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in a recovery in carrying value.

Table of Contents

Revenue

For product sales, WAVE considers practical and contractual limitations in determining whether there is an alternative use for the product. For example, long-term design and build contracts are typically highly customized to a customer’s specifications. For contracts with no alternative use and an enforceable right to payment for work performed to date, including a reasonable profit if the contract were terminated at the customer’s convenience for reason other than nonperformance, WAVE recognizes revenue over time. All other product sales are recognized at a point in time.

For contracts recognized over time, WAVE uses the cost-to-total cost method or the units of delivery method, depending on the nature of the contract, including length of production time.

For contracts recognized at a point in time, WAVE recognizes revenue when control passes to the customer, which is generally based on shipping terms that address when title and risk and rewards pass to the customer. However, WAVE also considers certain customer acceptance provisions as certain contracts with customers include installation, testing, certification or other acceptance provisions. In instances where contractual terms include a provision for customer acceptance, WAVE considers whether they have previously demonstrated that the product meets objective criteria specified by either the seller or customer in assessing whether control has passed to the customer.

For service contracts, WAVE recognizes revenue as the services are rendered if the customer is benefiting from the service as it is performed, or otherwise upon completion of the service. Separately priced extended warranties are recognized as a separate performance obligation over the warranty period.

The transaction price in WAVE’s contracts consists of fixed consideration and the impact of variable consideration including returns, rebates and allowances, and penalties. Variable consideration is generally estimated using a probability-weighted approach based on historical experience, known trends, and current factors including market conditions and status of negotiations.

For design and build contracts, WAVE may at times collect progress payments from the customer throughout the term of the contract, resulting in contract assets or liabilities depending on the timing of the payments. Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts when revenue recognized exceeds customer billings. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized.

Design and engineering costs for highly complex products to be sold under a long-term production-type contract are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with revenue recognition of the related contract or anticipated contract. Other design and development costs are deferred only if there is a contractual guarantee for reimbursement. Costs to obtain a contract (e.g., commissions) for contracts greater than one year are deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with revenue recognition of the related contract.

Product Warranties

WAVE’s standard product warranty terms generally include post-sales support and repairs or replacement of a product at no additional charge for a specified period of time. Accruals for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time revenue is recognized and are recorded as a component of costs of revenue. WAVE estimates the liability for warranty claims based on standard warranties, the historical frequency of claims and the cost to replace or repair products under warranty. Factors that influence the warranty liability include the number of units sold, the length of warranty term, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim. The warranty liability as of March 31, 2021 is $0.6 million and is included in “Other long-term liabilities” within the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Effects of COVID 19

Novel Coronavirus 2019 (“COVID-19”) is an infectious disease cause by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus. The disease was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As of May 7, 2021, over 156.4 million cases had been reported across the globe, resulting in 3.3 million deaths.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused significant disruption to society as a whole, including the workplace. The resulting impact to the global supply chain has disrupted most aspects of national and international commerce, with government-mandated social distancing measures imposing stay-at-home and work-from-home orders in almost every country. The effects of social distancing have shut down significant parts of the local, regional, national, and international economies, for limited or extended periods of time, with the exception of government designated essential services.

In many parts of the world, stay-at-home and work-from-home orders were relaxed during the summer of 2020 as the effects of the Coronavirus appeared to lessen, and economic activity began to recover. However, commencing in the autumn and fall of 2020 and continuing, the U.S. as well as countries in Europe, South America and Asia began to experience an increase in new COVID-19 cases, and in some cases local, state, and national governments began to reinstate restrictive measures to stem the spread of the virus. The U.S. and other countries also experienced an increase in new COVID-19 cases after the fall and winter holiday season, with new, more infectious variants of COVID-19 identified. Various vaccines have been developed, with vaccinations programs in effect worldwide, though reaching acceptable levels for worldwide immunization against COVID-19 remains challenging.

The future effects of the virus are difficult to predict, due to uncertainty about the course of the virus, different variants that may evolve, and the supply of the vaccine on a local, regional, and global basis, as well as the ability to implement vaccination programs in a short time frame.

The Company does not anticipate significant adverse effects on its operations’ revenue as compared to its business plan in the near- or mid-term, although the future effects of COVID-19 may result in regional restrictive measures which may constrain the Company’s operations.

The Company continues to monitor the overall situation with COVID-19 and its effects on both local, regional and global economies.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12 (“ASU 2019-12”) “Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” ASU 2019-12 will simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions currently provided for in ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740,”) and by amending certain other requirements of ASC 740. The changes resulting from ASU 2019-12 will be made on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis, depending on the specific exception or amendment. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2019-12 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 effective January 1, 2021. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2019-12 was not material.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06 (“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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current U.S. GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting, and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as additional paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities which meet the definition of a smaller reporting company are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2021. As the Company had no outstanding convertible instruments as of that date, the adoption of ASU 2020-06 had no effect.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC 326:”) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326,) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815,) and Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASC 2019-10,”) which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, for public entities which meet the definition of a smaller reporting company. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2023. Management is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the consolidated financial statements. The effect will largely depend on the composition and credit quality of our investment portfolio and the economic conditions at the time of adoption.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04 (“ASU 2021-04”) “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation— Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40)” which provides guidance on modifications or exchanges of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. An entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument, and provides further guidance on measuring the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange. ASU 2021-04 also provides guidance on the recognition of the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange on the basis of the substance of the transaction, in the same manner as if cash had been paid as consideration. The Company will adopt ASU 2021-04 on January 1, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2021-04 on the consolidated financial statements. The effect will largely depend on the terms of written call options or financings issued or modified in the future.

Note 2.Restatement of Previously Reported Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed on November 16, 2021, the Company determined that the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2021 should no longer be relied upon due to errors in such condensed consolidated financial statements related to revenue reported by Timios that provides title and agency services. The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements identified additional transactions and accounting practices not in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following errors were identified as part of the restatement:

A.The Company determined that it did not present Timios title and agency services revenue and the related cost of revenue in accordance with US GAAP on the condensed consolidated statement of operations, as premiums from title insurance policies written by independent agencies were presented on a gross basis and did not properly present revenue and cost of revenue net of commission costs.
B.The Company discovered that it did not properly account for its investment in Technology Metals Market Limited (“TM2”) in accordance with the equity method of accounting. In addition, the Company determined that it incorrectly presented equity income (loss) on its equity method investments as a component of interest and other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations rather than as a separate financial statement caption below income taxes.
C.The Company discovered certain errors in determining the estimated fair value of acquired intangible assets in its purchase price allocation for its acquisitions.

18

Table of Contents

D.The Company determined that the errors in determining the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in its acquisitions resulted in an additional reduction to the Company’s deferred tax liabilities.
E.The Company determined that it did not properly recognize income tax expense (benefit) for certain acquired entities subsequent to their respective acquisitions during the period ended March 31, 2021.

*The revenues were recorded on either a Principal or Agent basis, depending on the terms of the underlying transaction, including the ability to control the product and the level of inventory risk taken. All of the revenue from the sale of electric vehicles, as well as revenue from the sale of charging and batteries in the three months ended March 31, 2021, were recorded on a Principal basis. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, the EV revenues were recorded on an Agency (Net) basis because the Company acted as an agent rather than principal in these transactions.

Note 5.Available for Sale Security

On January 28, 2021, the Company invested $15.0 million in Silk EV via a convertible promissory note. Silk is an Italian engineering and design services company that has recently partnered with FAW to form a new company (“Silk-FAW”) to produce fully electric, luxury vehicles for the Chinese and global auto markets.

The terms of the convertible promissory note are as follows:

The principal amount is $15.0 million;
The interest rate is 6%;
The maturity date is January 28, 2022;

26

Table of Contents

Upon a qualified equity financing, as defined, the outstanding principal and accrued interest shall convert into equity securities sold in the qualified equity financing at a conversion price equal to the cash price for the equity securities times 0.80;
The events of default are as follows:

o

SILK EV fails to pay timely the principal and accrued interest due under this note;

o

SILK EV files any petition for relief under bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar other law; or

o

An involuntary petition is filed against SIK EV under bankruptcy or similar statute.

The Company accounts for the Silk EV note as an available for sale security at its fair value, with changes in fair value, if any, recorded in other comprehensive income.

Note 6.Acquisitions and Divestitures

The Company may divest certain businesses from time to time based upon review of the Company’s portfolio considering, among other items, factors relative to the extent of strategic and technological alignment and optimization of capital deployment, in addition to considering if selling the businesses results in the greatest value creation for the Company and for shareholders.

The Company has not acquired any companies nor disposed of any subsidiaries in the year ended December 31, 2020, with the exception of the disposition of its remaining 10.0% interest in Amer Global Technology Limited (“Amer.”) In the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold its remaining 10.0% interest in Amer to Fintalk Media Inc., a related party, for a nominal amount. As the Company had no basis in its remaining interest in Amer, the gain recognized on the sale was de minimis.

2021 Acquisitions

The Company has completed the below acquisitions in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of the acquired entities from their respective acquisition dates. All of the acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations. Accordingly, consideration paid by the Company to complete the acquisitions is initially allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated acquisition date fair values. The recorded amounts for assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional and subject to change during the measurement period, which is up to 12 months from the acquisition date.

Timios Holdings Corp.

On January 8, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of privately held Timios and its affiliates pursuant to the stock purchase agreement (the “Timios Agreement”) entered into on November 11, 2020. Pursuant to the Timios Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Timios for a purchase price of $40.0 million, net of cash acquired of $6.5 million. The full purchase price was paid in cash. Pursuant to the Timios Agreement, $5.1 million of the cash consideration was paid into escrow pending a one year indemnification review. Timios provides title and escrow services for real estate transactions. Revenue of $24.8 million and net income of $3.4 million have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date.

Wireless Advanced Vehicle Electrification, Inc.

On January 15, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of privately held WAVE pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the “WAVE Agreement”) entered into on January 4, 2021. WAVE is a provider of wireless charging solutions for medium and heavy-duty electric vehicles.

Pursuant to the WAVE Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of WAVE for an aggregate purchase price of $55.0 million in a combination of $15.0 million of cash plus a total of 12.6 million unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $40.0 million at the date of closing. Pursuant to the Wave Agreement, $5 million of the cash consideration was paid into escrow pending a one year indemnification review. The WAVE Agreement provided that 3.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock be held back at closing, to be released upon the receipt of certain customer consents not obtained prior to closing. As of March 31, 2021, 2.4 million of the Company’s common stock remains

27

Table of Contents

unissued pending receipt of the consents. Since receipt of the consents is probable, the Company has included these common shares as contingent consideration as of the acquisition date of $7.7 million. If any such consent is not obtained within six months following the closing date, the portion of the common stock allocated to such consent in the WAVE Agreement will not be issued to the sellers.

In addition to the purchase price to be paid at closing, the WAVE Agreement contains three earnouts that could result in additional payments of up to $30.0 million to the sellers based upon: (1) revenue and gross profit margin metrics in calendar year 2021; (2) revenue and gross profit margin metrics in calendar year 2022; and (3) revenue and gross profit margin metrics for 2021 and 2022 collectively. The Company considers this earnout to be contingent consideration that as of the acquisition date is unlikely to occur and has therefore attributed zero value for purposes of the preliminary purchase price allocation. The Company will continue to monitor the fair value of this contingent considerations with any changes being recorded in the statement of operations if and when a change occurs.

Ideanomics has also agreed to a performance and retention plan for the benefit of certain WAVE’s employees which could result in up to $10.0 million paid to such employees if certain gross revenue targets and certain gross profit margins are achieved for calendar years 2021 and 2022. Consistent with the conclusion on the earnout contingent consideration, the Company has not accrued any of this retention plan as the revenue and gross profit margin criteria are unlikely to be met.

Revenue of $1.8 million and net loss of $0.6 million have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date.

Acquisition Method Accounting Estimates

The Company initially recognizes the assets and liabilities acquired from the aforementioned acquisitions based on its preliminary estimates of their acquisition date fair values. As additional information becomes known concerning the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, management may make adjustments to the opening balance sheet of the acquired company up to the end of the measurement period, which is no longer than a one year period following the acquisition date. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed (and the related determination of estimated lives of depreciable tangible and identifiable intangible assets) requires significant judgment.

Global Headquarters for Technology and Innovation in Connecticut (“Fintech Village”)

On January 28, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors accepted an offer of $2.75 million for Fintech Village, and subsequently signed a sale contract on March 15, 2021. The Company believes that Fintech Village met the criteria for held for sale classification on January 28, 2021. As the sale is expected to be completed within one year, the land with a carrying amount of $2.6 million and the asset retirement cost of $4.5 million are recorded as “Held for sale assets (Fintech Village”) in the current asset section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has estimated the costs to sell Fintech Village to be $0.2 million and has recorded these costs in “Loss on disposal of subsidiaries, net.”

The Company recorded asset retirement obligations for environmental remediation matters in connection with the acquisition of Fintech Village. The asset retirement obligations are not classified as held for sale as the purchaser will not assume these liabilities. However, as the sale of Fintech Village is expected to be completed within one year, the asset retirement obligations, which will be derecognized upon the sale, have been classified as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Non-marketable equity investment

Non-marketable equity investments are investments in privately held companies without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.

The Company reviews its equity securities without readily determinable fair values on a regular basis to determine if the investment is impaired. For purposes of this assessment, the Company considers the investee’s cash position, earnings and revenue outlook, liquidity and management ownership, among other factors, in its review. If management’s assessment indicates that an impairment exists, the Company estimates the fair value of the equity investment and recognizes an impairment loss that is equal to the difference between the fair value of the equity investment and its carrying amount.

Table of Contents

Based on management’s analysis of certain investment’s performance, no impairment losses were recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

On January 28, 2021, the Company entered into a simple agreement for future equity (the “SAFE”) with Technology Metals Market Limited (“TM2”) pursuant to which Ideanomics invested £1.5 million ($2.1 million.) If there is an equity financing (of above one million pounds (1,000,000) during the twelve months immediately following execution of the SAFE, on the initial closing of such equity financing the SAFE will automatically convert into the number of ordinary shares equal to the purchase amount divided by the lowest price per share of the ordinary shares paid during such equity financing. If no equity financing has taken place during the twelve-month period immediately following the date of the SAFE, the parties shall in good faith attempt for one month to agree a fair value per ordinary share represented by the SAFE, following which the SAFE shall convert into the number of ordinary shares equal to the purchase amount divided by such fair value. If the parties are unable to establish a fair value per ordinary share within such one-month period, they shall jointly appoint and remunerate an expert valuer who shall deliver to both TM2 and Ideanomics simultaneously a written determination of fair value per ordinary share. Following receipt by both parties of such written determination, the SAFE shall convert into ordinary shares equal to the purchase amount divided by such fair value as determined by the expert valuer.

The Company has received no dividends from equity method investees in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

(a) Solectrac, Inc. (“Solectrac”)

On October 22, 2020, the Company acquired 1.4 million common shares, representing 15.0% of the total common shares outstanding, of Solectrac for a purchase price of $0.91 per share, for total consideration of $1.3 million. On November 19, 2020, Ideanomics acquired an additional 1.3 million shares of common stock for $1.00 per share, for a subsequent investment of $1.3 million. The Company’ ownership in Solectrac was diluted to 24.3% as of March 31 2021 due to the new share issuance by Solectrac during the three months ended March 31 2021.

Solectrac develops, assembles and distributes 100% battery-powered electric tractors-an alternative to diesel tractors-for agriculture and utility operations. Solectrac tractors provide an opportunity for farmers around the world to power their tractors by using the sun, wind, and other clean renewable sources of energy.

(b) Technology Metals Market Limited (“TM2”)

On December 20, 2019, the Company acquired 20 common shares, representing 10.0% of the then outstanding shares for 1.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock valued at 1,000,000 British pounds (approximately $1.2 million). In connection with the acquisition of 20 common shares, the Company also received the right to appoint one person (of four) to the board of directors. Accordingly, the Company has significant influence over TM2.

TM2 is a London based digital commodities issuance and trading platform for technology metals. It connects institutional investors, proprietary traders and retail investors with metals suppliers – miners, refiners, recyclers and mints. The platform

focuses specifically on new metals that currently don’t have an active trading marketplace, such as rhodium, lithium, cobalt, rhenium, etc.

(c) Energica Motor Company S.P.A. (“Energica”)

On March 3, 2021, the Company entered into an investment agreement with Energica Motor Company S.P.A (“Energica.”) The Company invested €10.1 million ($13.6 million) for 6.1 million ordinary shares of Energica at a subscription price of €1.78 ($2.21) for each ordinary share. Pursuant to the purchase of the shares the Company will hold 20.0% of Energica’s share capital. From March 3, 2021 through September 30, 2021 the Company has the right to participate in any equity financing by Energica. Ideanomics will not be able to sell any of the shares for a period of 90 days.

Energica is the world’s leading manufacturer of high performance electric motorcycles and the sole manufacturer of the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup. Energica motorcycles are currently on sale through the official network of dealers and importers.

The Company has decided to account for Energica on a one quarter lag as Energica, which is publicly traded on the Milan stock exchange, is only required to prepare and file semi-annual and annual financial statements, and the time frame in which the filings must be complete is much more lenient than in the U.S. Energica prepares its financial statements in accordance with Article 2423 et seq of the Italian Civil Code, rather than U.S. GAAP. Energica’s financial statements will either be prepared in or reconciled to U. S. GAAP prior to the Company recording its share of Energica’s earnings or losses, and the one quarter lag will be utilized to accomplish this, as well as related disclosure matters.

Shenma was required to complete the share transfer registration prior to May 31, 2020, otherwise it will be required to return the consideration to the Company. The Company has paid $0.5 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and recorded it on the “Other Non-Current Assets” since the share transfer registration is not completed yet. The Company is currently taking actions to resolve these matters.

Note 15.Share-Based Compensation

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 25.8 million options, 0.1 million restricted shares and 1.1 million warrants outstanding.

The Company awards common stock and stock options to employees, consultants, and directors as compensation for their services, and accounts for its stock option awards to employees, consultants, and directors pursuant to the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton valuation model. The Company recognizes the fair value of each option as compensation expense ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Effective as of December 3, 2010 and amended on August 3, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (“the 2010 Plan”) pursuant to which options or other similar securities may be granted. On October 22, 2020, the Company’s shareholders approved the amendment and restatement of the 2010 Plan. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2010 Plan increased from 31.5 million shares to 56.8 million shares. As of March 31, 2021, options available for issuance are 23.6 million shares.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, total share-based payments expense was $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

Basic earnings (loss) per common share attributable to the Company’s shareholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to the Company’s shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by taking net loss, divided by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share equals basic net loss per share because the effect of securities convertible into common shares is anti-dilutive.

The following table includes the number of shares that may be dilutive potential common shares in the future. The holders of these shares do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses and thus these shares were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the effect was antidilutive (in thousands):

Note 17.Income Taxes

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 there was an income tax benefit of $7.2 million. This principally consisted of a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance that resulted from the acquisitions of Timios and WAVE. In both cases intangible assets were recognized for financial reporting purposes that were not recognized for income tax purposes. This, in combination with some smaller temporary differences of Timios and WAVE, resulted in the recognition of $8.3 million deferred tax liabilities. The federal tax returns of Timios and WAVE will be included in the Ideanomics and subsidiaries consolidated U.S. federal tax return. WAVE will be included in the state tax returns of Ideanomics. The federal deferred tax liabilities, and the WAVE state deferred tax liabilities created, resulted in the valuation allowance on Ideanomics’ deferred tax assets being reduced by an equal amount. Ideanomics’ net deferred tax assets that had previously been judged to be more likely that not to be unable to reduce the Company’s income tax liability and consequently were completely offset by a valuation allowance. Once the acquisitions of Timios and WAVE occurred, a portion of Ideanomics’ deferred tax assets could be utilized in offsetting the newly acquired deferred tax liabilities, this resulted in a $7.4 million one-time income tax benefit.

Table of Contents

Timios has taxable income reported on certain separate state tax returns and consequently has related state income tax expense. The net state income tax expense for Timios was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. There are no other material income tax expenses or benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2021 because of net operating loss and deferred tax assets related to the net operating loss carryovers utilized had been offset by a valuation allowance. The Company had established a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets, excluding Timios’ net state deferred tax liabilities, due to its history of pre-tax losses and the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 income tax expense is nil because of net operating loss and deferred tax assets related to the net operating loss carryovers utilized had been offset by a valuation allowance. Company had established a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to its history of pre-tax losses and the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

There were no identified uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 18.Commitments and Contingencies

Lawsuits and Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the business.

Shareholder Class Actions and Derivative Litigation

On July 19, 2019, a purported class action, now captioned Rudani v. Ideanomics, et al. Inc., was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors. The Amended Complaint alleges violations of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Among other things, the Amended Complaint alleges purported misstatements made by the Company in 2017 and 2018.

On June 28, 2020, a purported securities class action, captioned Lundy v. Ideanomics et al. Inc., was filed in the United State District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain current officers and directors of the Company. Additionally, on July 7, 2020, a purported securities class action captioned Kim v. Ideanomics, et al, was filed in the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain current officers and directors of the Company. Both cases alleged violations of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 arising from certain purported misstatements by the Company beginning in March 2020 regarding its MEG division. On November 4, 2020, the Lundy and Kim actions were consolidated and is now titled “In re Ideanomics, Inc. Securities Litigation.” In December 2020, the Court appointed Rene Aghajanian as lead plaintiff and an amended complaint was filed in February 2021, alleging violations of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 arising from certain purported misstatements by the Company beginning in March 2020 regarding its MEG division.

On July 10, 2020, the Company was named as a nominal defendant, and certain of its former officers and directors were named as defendants, in a shareholder derivative action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Toorani v. Ideanomics, et al., 1:20-cv-05333. The Complaint alleges violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and corporate waste and seeks monetary damages and other relief on behalf of the Company. Additionally, on September 11, 2020, the Company was named as a nominal defendant, and certain of its former officers and directors were named as defendants, in a shareholder derivative action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Elleisy, Jr. v. Ideanomics, et al, 20-cv-5333, alleging violations and allegations similar to the Toorani litigation. On October 10, 2020, the Court in the Elleisy and Toorani, consolidated these two actions. Additionally, on October 27, 2020, the Company was named as a nominal defendant, and certain of its former officers and directors were named as defendants, in a shareholder derivative action filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, captioned Zare v. Ideanomics, et al, 20-cv-608, alleging violations and allegations similar to the Toorani and Elleisy litigation.

As previously disclosed, there was a mediation scheduled for April 21 and 22, 2021 for the above-referenced filed civil actions. In the Rudani action, the parties reached a settlement in principle, subject to finalizing a settlement agreement and

44

Table of Contents

approval of the Court, for $5,000,000. As to the shareholder derivative cases, the parties have advised the Court in the Southern District of New York that the parties are currently engaged in a dialogue pertaining to settlement. As to the action titled In re Ideanomics, Inc. Securities Litigation pending in the Southern District of New York, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss on May 6, 2021. While the Company believes that these actions are without merit, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in the pending lawsuits. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with the pending and unresolved litigations.

SEC Investigation

As previously reported, the Company is subject to an investigation by the SEC and continues to respond to various information and document requests from the SEC. The Company is fully cooperating with the SEC’s requests and cannot predict the outcome of this investigation.

Note 19.Concentration of Credit and Foreign Currency Risks

(a) Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s cash was held by financial institutions (located in the PRC, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the U.S. and Singapore) that management believes have acceptable credit. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured. The risk with respect to accounts receivable is mitigated by regular credit evaluations that the Company performs on its distribution partners and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

(b) Foreign Currency Risks

A portion of the Company’s operating transactions are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The value of the RMB is subject to changes in the central government policies and to international economic and political developments. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by laws to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC.”) Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to complete the remittance.

1This represents the liability incurred in connection with the acquisition of DBOT shares during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and as remeasured as of April 17, 2020. The contractual period which required periodic remeasurement has expired, and therefore the Company will not remeasure this liability in the future. The fair value of DBOT contingent consideration as of March 31, 2020 was valued using the Black-Scholes Merton method. The Company issued 10.9 million shares during the three months ended months ended March 31, 2020 and partially satisfied this liability. No shares have been issued in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

2This represents the liability incurred in connection with the acquisition of Tree Technology shares during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and as subsequently remeasured as of March 31, 2021. The fair value of the

Tree Technology contingent consideration was valued using a scenario-based method which incorporates various estimates, including projected gross revenue for the periods, probability estimates, discount rates and other factors.

3This represents the liability incurred in connection with the acquisition of WAVE. The liability represents the combination of the hold back shares and the earnout. The hold back shares are the remaining shares to be issued as of March 31, 2021 contingent on the receipt of certain customer consents as disclosed in Note 6. The fair value of this contingent consideration was valued using a scenario-based method that indicated based on the probabilities that 100% of the consents will be received in the second quarter of 2021. The earnout liability is dependent on WAVE achieving certain revenue and gross profit margin criteria in 2021, 2022 and cumulatively 2021 and 2022. The fair value of zero has been determined using a scenario-based method indicated that none of the criteria are likely to be achieved.

On January 28, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors accepted an offer of $2.75 million for Fintech Village, and subsequently signed a sale contract on March 15, 2021. The Company believes that Fintech Village met the criteria for held for sale classification on January 28, 2021. As the sale is expected to be completed within one year, the land with a carrying amount of $2.5 million and the asset retirement cost of $4.5 million are recorded as “Held for sale assets (Fintech Village”) in the current asset section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has estimated the costs to sell Fintech Village to be $0.2 million and has recorded these costs in “Loss on disposal of subsidiaries, net.”

Recent Developments

U.S. Hybrid

On May 12, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire U.S. Hybrid Corporation (“US Hybrid.”) Founded in 1999, and headquartered in Torrance, California, U.S. Hybrid has been providing innovative solutions including components, drive trains, and fuel cells to medium and heavy-duty commercial fleet operators. U.S. Hybrid designs, manufactures, and markets integrated power conversion systems for battery electric, fuel cell, and hybrid vehicles, as well as systems for renewable energy generation and storage. The company has been leading the clean-tech revolution by offering integrated power conversion components and integrated motor drives, motors and controllers, distributed energy management systems, and DC-DC boost converters - equipment that is vital to the growth of the broader EV industry. In addition to its relationships with leading original equipment manufacturers, U.S. Hybrid has delivered projects for the private and public sectors, including the defense industry and governmental customers.

U.S. Hybrid has reliably demonstrated proven powertrain technology, along with DC-DC converters which possess high efficiency ratings and fast dynamic response capabilities. U.S. Hybrid enjoys long-term commercial relationships in various industries including Commercial, Defense and Aerospace, and Transit/Municipal for its battery electric vehicle, fuel cell energy, and hybrid platforms.

The acquisition of U.S. Hybrid brings to Ideanomics the application of U.S.-built technology, for use in its own vehicles, and significantly extends the company’s capabilities in zero-emission transportation. U.S. Hybrid will continue to service its existing customer base, and Ideanomics will assist them in scaling their business operations within the Ideanomics Mobility business division. U.S. Hybrid operates from locations in California, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.

Principal Factors Affecting the Company’s Financial Performance

The business is expected to be impacted by both macroeconomic and Ideanomics-specific factors. The following factors have been part of the transformation of the Company which affected the results of its operations in 2021 and 2020:

The Company’s ability to transform the business and to meet internal or external expectations of future performance. In connection with this transformation, the Company is in the process of considerable changes, which include assembling a new management team in the United States and overseas, reconfiguring its business structure, continuing to further enhance the controls, procedures, and oversight during this transformation, and expanding the Company’s mission and business lines for continued growth. It is uncertain whether these efforts will prove beneficial or whether the Company will be able to develop the necessary business models, infrastructure and systems to support the businesses. To succeed, among other things, the Company will need to have or hire the right talent to execute the business strategy. Market acceptance of new product and service offerings will be dependent in part on management’s ability to include functionality and usability that address customer requirements, and optimally price the products and services to meet customer demand and cover costs.

Table of Contents

The Company’s ability to remain competitive. The Company will continue to face intense competition: these new technologies are constantly evolving, and the Company’s competitors may introduce new platforms and solutions that are superior. In addition, the Company’s competitors may be able to adapt more quickly to new technologies or may be able to devote greater resources to the development, marketing and sale of their products than the Company can. The Company may never establish and maintain a competitive position in the hybrid financing and logistics management businesses.
The fluctuation in earnings from the deployment of the Company’s services through acquisitions, strategic equity investments, the formation of joint ventures, and through licenses of technology. The Company’s results of operations may fluctuate from period to period based on the entry into new transactions to expand the business. In addition, while management intends to contribute cash and other assets to the Company’s various investments, the Company does not intend for its holding company to conduct significant research and development activities. The Company intends research and development activities to be conducted by its technology partners and licensors. These fluctuations in growth or costs and in the Company’s various investments may contribute to significant fluctuations in the results of the Company’s operations.

Effects of COVID 19

Novel Coronavirus 2019 (“COVID-19”) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus. The disease was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As of May 7, 2021, over 156.4 million cases had been reported across the globe, resulting in 3.3 million deaths.

The spread of COVID 19 has caused significant disruption to society as a whole, including the workplace. The resulting impact to the global supply chain has disrupted most aspects of national and international commerce, with government-mandated social distancing measures imposing stay-at-home and work-from-home orders in almost every country. The effects of social distancing have shut down significant parts of the local, regional, national, and international economies, for limited or extended periods of time, with the exception of government designated essential services.

In many parts of the world, stay-at-home and work-from-home orders were relaxed during the summer of 2020 as the effects of the Coronavirus appeared to lessen, and economic activity began to recover. However, commencing in the autumn and fall of 2020, the U. S. as well as countries in Europe, South America and Asia began to experience an increase in new COVID-19 cases, and in some cases local, state, and national governments began to reinstate restrictive measures to stem the spread of the virus. The U.S. and other countries also experienced an increase in new COVID-19 cases after the fall and winter holiday season, with new, more infectious variants of COVID-19 identified. Various vaccines have been developed, with vaccinations programs in effect worldwide, though reaching acceptable levels for worldwide immunization against COVID-19 remains challenging.

The future effects of the virus are difficult to predict, due to uncertainty about the course of the virus, different variants that may evolve, and the supply of the vaccine on a local, regional, and global basis, as well as the ability to implement vaccination programs in a short time frame.

The Company does not anticipate significant adverse effects on its operations’ revenue as compared to its business plan in the near- or mid-term, although the future effects of COVID-19 may result in regional restrictive measures which may constrain the Company’s operations.

The Company continues to monitor the overall situation with COVID-19 and its effects on both local, regional and global economies.

Information about Segment Presentation

The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. Through March 31, 2021, the Company operates in one segment with two business units, Ideanomics Mobility and Ideanomics Capital.

51

Table of Contents

With two acquisitions closing in the three months ending March 31, 2021, the Company anticipates that its internal management structure and the information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker will change such that it may, in the future, have multiple reportable segments. At a minimum these are thought to be Ideanomics Mobility, which would encompass the entities with businesses centered in the electric vehicle (“EV”) market, and Ideanomics Capital, which would encompass business centered in the finance/real estate market, and a corporate entity, with the combination/consolidation of all three comprising the consolidated operations of the Company.

Our Unconsolidated Equity Investments

The investments where the Company exercises significant influence, but not control, are classified as long-term equity investments and accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and adjusted for its share of undistributed earnings or losses of the investee. Investment losses are recognized until the investment is written down to nil, provided that the Company does not guarantee the investee’s obligations or is committed to provide additional funding. Refer to Note 10 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for further information.

Table of Contents

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $29.9 million as compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2020, an increase of $29.6 million. The increase was mainly due to the Company’s acquisition of Timios, which generated revenue of $24.8 million from the acquisition closing date through March 31, 2021. No revenue was generated related to title and escrow services for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company gradually ramped up its business related to EVs and recognized $0.1 million revenue from the sales of EVs. The EV revenues for the quarter were recorded on an Agency (Net) basis because the Company acted as an agent rather than principal in these transactions.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company recognized $24.8 million revenue from the sales of title and escrow services, $3.0 million revenue from the sales of EVs, and $1.9 million revenue from sales of charging and batteries. The EV revenues for the quarter were recorded on a Principal (Gross) basis because the Company acted as principal in these transactions.

Income tax benefit

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the income tax benefit of $7.2 million is mainly due to a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance of $7.4 million that resulted from the acquisitions of Timios and WAVE, partially offset by the $0.2 million state income taxes mainly from Timios that has taxable income reported on certain separate state tax returns and consequently has related state income tax expense. The Company had established a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to its history of pre-tax losses and the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, income tax expense is nil because of net operating loss and deferred tax assets related to the net operating loss carryovers utilized had been offset by a valuation allowance. Company had established a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to its history of pre-tax losses and the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Equity in loss of equity method investees of $0.2 million related to recording TM2 and Solectrac’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest

Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to a net loss of $0.3 million in the same period in 2020. The decrease of loss is mainly due to the decrease in loss of our investment with iUnicorn, partially offset by the slight increase in loss of Tree Technologies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2021, we had cash of $355.9 million. Approximately $3.9 million was held in accounts outside of the United States, primarily in the PRC.

Due to the strict regulations governing the transfer of funds held in the PRC to other jurisdictions, the Company does not consider funds held in its PRC entities to be available to fund operations and investment outside of the PRC and consequently does not include them when evaluating the liquidity needs of its businesses operating outside of the PRC.

Timios holds various regulatory licenses related to its business as a title insurance agency and is required to hold a minimum cash balance of $2.0 million. As a broker-dealer, DBOT has minimum capital requirements. DBOT had cash of $0.3 million as of March 31, 2021, which was necessary for DBOT to meet its minimum capital requirements. The Company consolidates a 51.0% owned investment in an entity which is based in Singapore. This entity had cash of $0.5 million as of March 31,

Operating Activities

Cash generated in operating activities was $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to cash used in operations of $3.9 million in the same period in 2020. This change of $6.5 million was primarily due to: (1) a reduction in net loss to $6.6 million in the current period as compared to a net loss of $12.6 million in the first quarter of 2020, (2) total non-cash adjustments increase (decrease) to net loss was $(1.9) million and $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively; and (3) total changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in an increase of $11.1 million and of $1.5 million in cash provided by (used in) operations activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $86.1 million, primarily due to expenditures incurred for the acquisition of Timios and WAVE, the investment in Energica and the acquisition of the convertible note with Silk EV.

Financing Activities

The Company received $273.7 million from financing activities in the current quarter versus $7.1 million in the same quarter in the prior year. The issuance of convertible notes generated $220.0 million in the current quarter as compared to $2.0 million in the same period of 2020. The exercise of warrants and issuance of common stock generated $53.7 million as compared to $1.0 million in the same period of 2020. In the quarter ended March 31, 2020 the Company received $7.1 million from a non-controlling shareholders contribution and made a repayment of $3.0 million to a related party.

The Company expects to continue to raise both equity and debt finance to support the Company’s investment plans and operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements are obligations the Company has with nonconsolidated entities related to transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements. The Company holds interests in investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company does not control these investments and therefore does not consolidate them.

The Company does not have other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in its securities.

Table of Contents

Seasonality

The Company expects that orders and sales in its Ideanomics Mobility business unit will be influenced by the amount and timing of budgeted expenditure by its customers. Typically, the Company would expect to see higher sales at the start of the year when companies start executing on their capital programs and at the end of the year when companies are spending any surplus or uncommitted budget before the new budget cycle commences. The Company’s operating businesses are in the early stage of their development and consequently do not have sufficient trading histories to project seasonal buying patterns with any degree of confidence.

Orders and sales in our Ideanomics Capital business unit will principally be influenced by changes in interest rates and the resulting impact on in the U.S. housing market particularly as it relates to purchases of homes and the refinancing of existing mortgages which are central to our Timios business.

OUTLOOK

The Company believes that the investment made to build out its sales capacity in China and a related capability in sourcing and supply chain and related logistics in China will help drive growth in China using the Company’s S2F2C business model and enable the Company to source high quality components and completed vehicles at competitive prices for its Medici, Treeletrik, WAVE and Solectrac businesses outside of China. The global focus on climate change and the related regulatory changes to encourage the adoption of EVs is very favorable for the Company’s business, particularly the charging and battery businesses, which are critical to the widespread adoption of EVs. Providing customers with easy access to financing options for their purchases of vehicles, batteries and charging infrastructure is an important enabler for the deployment of EV and related technologies and the Company will continue to work to develop funding sources in conjunction with manufactures and established lenders.

The Company’s Tree Technologies subsidiary secured a large order to supply up to 200,000 units of its 100% electric motorbikes to Indonesia through PSE, its exclusive distributor, during a 3 year term. As part of supplying this order the Company anticipates entering into arrangements to assemble these motorbikes in Indonesia and setting up a battery swap business.

Fintech continues to provide opportunities which could generate high rates of return through the deployment of technology to disrupt existing business models. The Company’s acquisition of Timios in the first quarter of 2021 marks the first entrance into the real estate title agency and closing market. Management believes that through deployment of advanced technology and complimentary acquisitions it can increase Timios’ value. The regulatory environment for the adoption of digital securities is improving with regulators and central bankers in the world’s most developed economies acknowledging that digital securities should be part of the financial ecosystem. This change favors companies like Ideanomics that have assets, such as DBOT, that are fundamental building blocks of any move towards digital securities.

The Company anticipates making continued investments in both the Ideanomics Mobility and Ideanomics Capital business units.

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations governing, among other things, hazardous materials, environmental contamination and the protection of the environment. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. We may also incur fines and penalties from time to time associated with noncompliance with such laws and regulations.

Based on that evaluation, in our Original Form 10-Q, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of March 31, 2021, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

Our management has reevaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021. During the preparation of the condensed consolidation financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021, the Company identified material misstatements in its Original Form 10-Q. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of March 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of material weaknesses in the Company’s accounting and financial reporting for complex transactions.

Management has determined that the Company has the following material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting:

The design and implementation of internal controls over the review of management’s inputs into valuation models and associated valuation outputs from third party valuation specialists.
The design and implementation of internal controls over the revenue recognition process, specifically the failure to properly evaluate whether the Company was to be considered the principal or the agent in contracts with customers.
There is a lack of sufficient personnel in accounting and financial reporting functions with sufficient experience and expertise with respect to the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
Operating effectiveness of internal controls to identify and evaluate the accounting implications of non-routine transactions.

These material weaknesses, individually or in the aggregate, could result in misstatements of accounts or disclosures that would each result in a material misstatement of the interim or annual Consolidated Financial Statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Notwithstanding the conclusion by our management that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021 were not effective, and notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A fairly present in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the dates presented, and for the periods ended on such dates, in conformity with US GAAP.

Our evaluation excluded Timios and WAVE which were acquired in January 2021. As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 Timios represented 11.6% of total assets and 83.0% of revenue and WAVE represented 12.1% of total

assets and 6.1% of revenue, respectively. In accordance with guidance issued by the SEC, we expect to exclude the acquisitions from our assessment of internal controls over financial reporting during the first year following the acquisition.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2021, which have materially affected or would likely materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. The Company continues to invest resources in order to upgrade internal controls.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For a description of the Company’s legal proceedings, see Note 18, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 2020 Form 10-K which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in the 2020 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to management or that management currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results.

Risks Related to the Restatement of our Prior Period Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Material Weaknesses in our Internal Control

We have restated our condensed consolidated financial statements for several prior periods, which has affected and may continue to affect investor confidence, our stock price, our ability to raise capital in the future, and our reputation with our customers, which may result in stockholder litigation and may reduce customer confidence in our ability to complete new opportunities.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A includes restated condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended March 31, 2021. The restatement of our condensed consolidated financial statements primarily reflects the correction of certain errors, which resulted from an incorrect application of US GAAP, as described in more detail elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A. Such restatement may have the effect of eroding investor confidence in the Company and our financial reporting and accounting practices and processes, and may negatively impact the trading price of our common stock, may result in stockholder litigation, may make it more difficult for us to raise capital on acceptable terms, if at all, and may negatively impact our reputation with our customers and cause customers to place new orders with other companies.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which, did and could continue to, if not remediated, adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner.

We have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2021 due to the existence of material weaknesses in such controls, and we have also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2021 due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, all as described in Part I, Item 4, “Controls and Procedures” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A. Although we have initiated remediation measures to address the identified weaknesses, we cannot provide assurance that our remediation efforts will be adequate to allow us to conclude that such controls will be effective in the future. We also cannot assure you that additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not arise or be identified in the future.

We intend to continue our remediation activities and to continue to improve our overall control environment and our operational and financial systems and infrastructure, as well as to continue to train, retain and manage our personnel who are essential to effective internal control. In doing so, we will continue to incur expenses and expend management’s time on compliance-related issues. However, we cannot ensure that the steps that we have taken or will take will successfully remediate the errors. If we are unable to successfully complete our remediation efforts or favorably assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our operating results, financial position, ability to accurately report our financial results and timely file our SEC reports, and our stock price could be adversely affected.

Moreover, because of the inherent limitations of any control system, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis, or at all. If we are unable to provide reliable and timely financial reports in the future, our business and reputation may be further harmed. Restated financial statements and failures in internal control may also cause us to fail to meet reporting obligations, negatively affect investor and customer confidence

in our management and the accuracy of our financial statements and disclosures, result in events of default under our banking agreements, or result in adverse publicity and concerns from investors and customers, any of which could have a negative effect on the price of our common stock, subject us to regulatory investigations and penalties or additional stockholder litigation, and have a material adverse impact on our business and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Information Technology Systems and Cyber-Security

Defects or disruptions in our technology or services could diminish demand for our products and services and subject us to liability.

Because our technology, products and services are complex and use or incorporate a variety of computer hardware, software and databases, both developed in-house and acquired from third-party vendors, our technology, products and services may have errors or defects. Errors and defects could result in unanticipated downtime or failure and could cause financial loss and harm to our reputation and our business. We have from time to time found defects and errors in our technology, products and service and defects and errors in our technology, products or services may be detected in the future. In addition, our customers may use our technology, products and services in unanticipated ways that may cause a disruption for other customers. As we acquire companies, we may encounter difficulty in incorporating the acquired technologies, products and services, and maintaining the quality standards that are consistent with our technology, products and services. Since our customers use our technology, products and services for important aspects of their businesses and for financial transactions, any errors, defects, or disruptions in such technology, products and services or other performance problems with our technology, products and services could subject our customers to financial loss and hurt our reputation.

Our platform functions on software that is highly technical and complex and may now or in the future contain undetected errors, bugs, or vulnerabilities. Some errors in our software code may only be discovered after the code has been deployed. Any errors, bugs or vulnerabilities discovered in our code after deployment, inability to identify the cause or causes of performance problems within an acceptable period of time or difficultly maintaining and improving the performance of our platform, particularly during peak usage times, could result in damage to our reputation or brand, loss of revenues, or liability for damages, any of which could adversely affect our business and financial results.

We expect to continue to make significant investments to maintain and improve the availability of our platform and to enable rapid releases of new features and products. To the extent that we do not effectively address capacity constraints, upgrade our systems as needed and continually develop our technology and network architecture to accommodate actual and anticipated changes in technology, our business and operating results may be harmed.

We have previously experienced, and may in the future experience, service disruptions, outages and other performance problems due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, third-party service providers, human or software errors and capacity constraints. If our application is unavailable when customers attempt to access it or it does not load as quickly as they expect, customers may seek other services.

Malicious cyber-attacks and other adverse events affecting our operational systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties, could disrupt our businesses, result in the disclosure of confidential information, damage our reputation and cause losses or regulatory penalties.

Developing and maintaining our operational systems and infrastructure are challenging, particularly as a result of us and our clients entering into new businesses, jurisdictions and regulatory regimes, rapidly evolving legal and regulatory requirements and technological shifts. Our financial, accounting, data processing or other operating and compliance systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or become disabled as a result of events that are wholly or partially beyond our control, including malicious cyber-attack or other adverse events, which may adversely affect our ability to process these transactions or provide services or products.

In addition, our operations rely on the secure processing, storage and transmission of confidential and other information on our computer systems and networks. Although we take protective measures, such as software programs, firewalls and similar technology, to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our and our customers’ information, and endeavor to modify these protective measures as circumstances warrant, the nature of cyber threats continues to evolve. As a result, our computer systems, software and networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, loss or destruction

of data (including confidential customer information), account takeovers, unavailability or disruption of service, computer viruses, acts of vandalism, or other malicious code, ransomware, hacking, phishing and other cyber-attacks and other adverse events that could have an adverse security impact. Despite the defensive measures we have taken, these threats may come from external forces, such as governments, nation-state actors, organized crime, hackers, and other third parties, including outsource or infrastructure-support providers and application developers, or may originate internally from within us. Given the high volume of transactions, certain errors may be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and rectified.

We also face the risk of operational disruption, failure, termination or capacity constraints of any of the third parties that facilitate our business activities, including vendors, customers, counterparties, exchanges, clearing agents, clearinghouses or other financial intermediaries. Such parties could also be the source of a cyber-attack on or breach of our operational systems, network, data or infrastructure.

There have been an increasing number of ransomware, hacking, phishing and other cyber-attacks in recent years in various industries, including ours, and cyber-security risk management has been the subject of increasing focus by our regulators. Like other companies, we have on occasion experienced, and may continue to experience, threats to our systems, including viruses, phishing and other cyber-attacks. The number and complexity of these threats continue to increase over time. The techniques used in these attacks are increasingly sophisticated, change frequently and are often not recognized until launched. If one or more cyber-attacks occur, it could potentially jeopardize the confidential, proprietary and other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, our computer systems and networks, or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our, as well as our customers’ or other third parties’ operations, which could result in reputational damage, financial losses, customer dissatisfaction and/or regulatory penalties, which may not in all cases by covered by insurance. If an actual, threatened or perceived cyber-attack or breach of our security occurs, our clients could lose confidence in our platforms and solutions, security measures and reliability, which would materially harm our ability to retain existing clients and gain new clients. As a result of any such attack or breach, we may be required to expend significant resources to repair system, network or infrastructure damage and to protect against the threat of future cyber-attacks or security breaches. We could also face litigation or other claims from impacted individuals as well as substantial regulatory sanctions or fines.

The extent of a particular cyber- attack and the steps that we may need to take to investigate the attack may not be immediately clear, and it may take a significant amount of time before such an investigation can be completed and full and reliable information about the attack is known. While such an investigation is ongoing, we may not necessarily know the full extent of the harm caused by the cyber-attack, and any resulting damage may continue to spread. Furthermore, it may not be clear how best to contain and remediate the harm caused by the cyber-attack, and certain errors or actions could be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and remediated. Any or all of these factors could further increase the costs and consequences of a cyber-attack.

Our regulators in recent years have increased their examination and enforcement focus on all matters of our businesses, especially matters relating to cyber-security threats, including the assessment of firms’ vulnerability to cyber-attacks. In particular, regulatory concerns have been raised about firms establishing effective cyber-security governance and risk management policies, practices and procedures that enable the identification of risks, testing and monitoring of the effectiveness of such procedures and adaptation to address any weaknesses; protecting firm networks and information; data loss prevention, identifying and addressing risk associated with remote access to client information and fund transfer requests; identifying and addressing risks associated with customers business partners, counterparties, vendors, and other third parties, including exchanges and clearing organizations; preventing and detecting unauthorized access or activities; adopting effective mitigation and business continuity plans to timely and effectively address the impact of cyber-security breaches; and establishing protocols for reporting cyber-security incidents. As we enter new jurisdictions or different product area verticals, we may be subject to new areas of risk or to cyber-attacks in areas in which we have less familiarity and tools. A technological breakdown could also interfere with our ability to comply with financial reporting requirements. The SEC has issued guidance stating that, as a public company, we are expected to have controls and procedures that relate to cybersecurity disclosure, and are required to disclose information relating to certain cyber-attacks or other information security breaches in disclosures required to be made under the federal securities laws. While any insurance that we may have that covers a specific cyber-security incident may help to prevent our realizing a significant loss from the incident, it would not protect us from the effects of adverse regulatory actions that may result from the incident or a finding that we had inadequate cyber-security controls, including the reputational harm that could result from such regulatory actions.

Additionally, data privacy is subject to frequently changing rules and regulations in countries where we do business. For example, the European Union adopted a new regulation that became effective in May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR,”) which requires entities both in the European Economic Area and outside to comply with new regulations regarding the handling of personal data. We are also subject to certain U.S. federal and state laws governing the protection of personal data. These laws and regulations are increasing in complexity and number. In addition to the increased cost of compliance, our failure to successfully implement or comply with appropriate processes to adhere to the GDPR and other laws and regulations relating to personal data could result in substantial financial penalties for non-compliance, expose us to litigation risk and harm our reputation.

Risks Related to the Real Estates Services Industry

If adverse changes in the levels of real estate activity occur, the revenues of our Timios subsidiaries may decline.

Title insurance, settlement services, and appraisal revenue is closely related to the level of real estate activity, which includes, among other things, sales, mortgage financing and mortgage refinancing. The levels of real estate activity are primarily affected by the average price of real estate sales, the availability of funds to finance purchases and mortgage interest rates. Both the volume and the average price of residential real estate transactions have increased substantially in many parts of the country over the past year. Due to the unprecedented nature of activity, these trends are unlikely to continue at the same level in the long term.

We have found that residential real estate activity generally decreases in the following situations:

Mortgage interest rates are high or increasing;
Mortgage funding supply is limited; and
The United States economy is weak, including high unemployment levels.

If there is a decline in the level of real estate activity or the average price of real estate sales may adversely affect our title insurance, settlement services, and appraisal management revenues. In 2020, the mortgage interest rate reached record lows increasing mortgage refinancing to the highest levels in history. In 2021, the mortgage interest rate has increased, which may negatively impact the amount of mortgage refinancing activity in comparison to 2020. Sales and mortgage financing remain elevated and the interest rate remains low in respect to historical averages. This activity may be adversely impacted if the economy does not continue to perform well, mortgage rates increase greatly, or lending institutions experience losses that prohibit their ability to lend. Our revenues in future periods will continue to be subject to these and other factors which are beyond our control and, as a result, are likely to fluctuate.

If financial institutions at which we hold escrow funds fail, it could have a material adverse impact on our company.

We hold customers’ assets in escrow at various financial institutions, pending completion of real estate transactions. These assets are maintained in segregated bank accounts. Failure of one or more of these financial institutions may lead us to become liable for the funds owed to third parties and there is no guarantee that we would recover all of the funds deposited, whether through Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage or otherwise.

If we experience changes in the rate or severity of title insurance claims, it may adversely impact our ability to conduct business.

By their nature, claims are often complex, vary greatly in dollar amounts and are affected by economic and market conditions and the legal environment existing at the time of settlement of the claims. We are an underwritten title company, and if our claims exceed the threshold established by the title companies that underwrite the insurance we offer, it may be cause to have our appointments revoked and negatively impact our ability to conduct business.

Because our Timios subsidiary is dependent upon California for a substantial portion of our title insurance premiums, our business may be adversely affected by regulatory conditions in California.

California is the largest source of revenue for the title insurance industry and, in 2020, California-based premiums accounted for a substantial portion of the premiums earned by our Timios subsidiary. A significant part of our revenues and profitability are therefore subject to our operations in California and to the prevailing regulatory conditions in California. Adverse regulatory developments in California, which could include reductions in the maximum rates permitted to be charged, cost of employment regulations, inadequate rate increases or more fundamental changes in the design or implementation of the California title insurance regulatory framework, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The title insurance business is highly competitive.

Competition in the title insurance and appraisal management industry is intense, particularly with respect to price, service and expertise. Business comes primarily by referral from real estate agents, lenders, developers and other settlement providers. The sources of business lead to a great deal of competition among title agents and appraisal management companies. There are numerous national companies and smaller companies at the regional and local levels. The smaller companies are an ever-present competitive risk in the regional and local markets where their business connections can give them a competitive edge. Although we are not aware of any current initiatives to reduce regulatory barriers to entering our industry, any such reduction could result in new competitors, including financial institutions, entering the title insurance business. From time to time, new entrants enter the marketplace with alternative products to traditional title insurance, although many of these alternative products have been disallowed by title insurance regulators. These alternative products, if permitted by regulators, could adversely affect our revenues and earnings. Competition among the major title insurance companies and any new entrants could lower our premium and fee revenues.

Industry regulatory changes and scrutiny could adversely affect our ability to compete for or retain business or increase our cost of doing business.

The title insurance industry has recently been, and continues to be, under regulatory scrutiny in a number of states with respect to pricing practices, and alleged Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act violations and unlawful rebating practices. The regulatory environment could lead to industry-wide reductions in premium rates and escrow fees, the inability to get rate increases when necessary, as well as to changes that could adversely affect the Company’s ability to compete for or retain business or raise the costs of additional regulatory compliance. Further, if regulatory decrees delaying foreclosures are extended, it will continue to impact our ability to recognize revenue and profitability from our default title and settlement services department.

We may pursue opportunities that involve business, regulatory, legal or other complexities.

We may pursue unusually complex opportunities. This can often take the form of substantial business, regulatory or legal complexity. Our tolerance for complexity presents risks, as such contracts can be more difficult, expensive and time-consuming to execute; it can be more difficult to manage or realize value from the assets managed in such activity; and such activity sometimes entail a higher level of regulatory scrutiny or a greater risk of contingent liabilities. Any of these risks could harm the results of our operations.

Our business depends upon our ability to keep pace with the latest technological changes, and our failure to do so could make us less competitive in our industry.

The market for our products and services is characterized by rapid change and technological change, frequent new product innovations, changes in customer requirements and expectations and evolving industry standards. Products using new technologies or emerging industry standards could make our products and services less attractive. Failure to respond in a timely and cost-effective way to these technological developments may result in serious harm to our business and operating results. As a result, our success will depend, in part, on our ability to develop and market product and service offerings that respond in a timely manner to the technological advances available to our customers, evolving industry standards and changing preferences.

Rapid technological changes in our industry require timely and cost-effective responses. Our earnings may be adversely affected if we are unable to effectively use technology to increase productivity.

Technological advances occur rapidly in the title insurance industry as industry standards evolve and title insurers introduce new products and services. We believe that our future success depends on our ability to anticipate technological changes and to offer products and services that meet evolving standards on a timely and cost-effective basis. Successful implementation and customer acceptance of our technology-based services will be crucial to our future profitability. There is a risk that the introduction of new products and services, or advances in technology, could reduce the usefulness of our products and render them obsolete.

Risks Related to the Wireless Charging System Industry

The success of our business depends in large part on our ability to protect our proprietary information and technology and enforce our intellectual property rights against third parties.

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, service mark, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual restrictions, to establish and protect our proprietary rights, all of which provide only limited protection. We cannot assure you that any patents will issue with respect to our currently pending patent applications, in a manner that gives us the protection that we seek, if at all, or that any future patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Our currently issued patents and any patents that may issue in the future with respect to pending or future patent applications may not provide sufficiently broad protection or they may not prove to be enforceable in actions against alleged infringers. Also, we cannot assure you that any future service mark registrations will be issued with respect to pending or future applications or that any registered service marks will be enforceable or provide adequate protection of our proprietary rights.

We endeavor to enter into agreements with our employees and contractors and agreements with parties with whom we do business to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. We cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use of our technology or the reverse engineering of our technology. Moreover, others may independently develop technologies that are competitive to ours or infringe our intellectual property. The enforcement of our intellectual property rights also depends on our legal actions against these infringers being successful, but we cannot be sure these actions will be successful, even when our rights have been infringed.

Further, effective patent, trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available in every country in which our services are available over the Internet. In addition, the legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights in EV-related industries are uncertain and still evolving.

Changes to existing federal, state or international laws or regulations applicable to us could cause an erosion of our current competitive strengths.

Our business is subject to a variety of federal, state and international laws and regulations, including those with respect government incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy, electric vehicles and others. These laws and regulations, and the interpretation or application of these laws and regulations, could change. Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in diminished revenues from government sources and diminished demand for our products. In addition, new laws or regulations affecting our business could be enacted. These laws and regulations are frequently costly to comply with and may divert a significant portion of management’s attention. If we fail to comply with these applicable laws or regulations, we could be subject to significant liabilities which could adversely affect our business.

There are many federal, state and international laws that may affect our business, including measures to regulate EVs and charging systems. If we fail to comply with these applicable laws or regulations, we could be subject to significant liabilities which could adversely affect our business.

There are a number of significant matters under review and discussion with respect to government regulations which may affect business and/or harm our customers, and thereby adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
