NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Arcimoto, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007. The Company’s mission is to catalyze the global shift to a sustainable transportation system. Over the past 16 years, the Company has developed a new vehicle platform designed around the needs of everyday drivers. Having approximately one-third the weight and one-third of the footprint of the average car, the Arcimoto platform’s purpose is to bring the joy of ultra-efficient, pure electric driving to the masses. To date, the Company currently has two vehicle products built on this platform that target specific niches in the vehicle market: its flagship product, the Fun Utility Vehicle® (“FUV®”), for everyday consumer trips, and the Deliverator® for last-mile delivery and general fleet utility.
In February 2023, two wholly-owned subsidiaries
of the Company were formed, Arcimoto Property Holding Company, LLC and APHC Holdings, LLC. APHC Holdings, LLC is the parent of Arcimoto
Property Holding Company, LLC. Arcimoto Property Holding Company, LLC is the borrower in a loan obtained on February 17, 2023 for $
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split
On November 11, 2022, the Board of Directors approved
a reverse stock split of 1-for-20. This action enabled the Company to access additional funds for operational needs by maintaining its
listing requirements. The
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and management expects losses to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand to pay obligations as they come due.
| ● | On January 14, 2022 the Company entered into an agreement with Canaccord
Genuity LLC (“Canaccord”) to raise the at-the-market (“ATM”) offering amount to $ |
| ● | On February 17, 2023, the Company obtained a loan that is secured by the Company’s land and buildings
as disclosed in Note 6 - Mortgage Loan. The principal amount of this loan is $ |

Furthermore, the Company’s accounts payable
balance is approximately $
Management has evaluated these conditions and concluded that they raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the issuance of these unaudited financial statements. Management has initiated a series of actions to alleviate the Company’s financial situation: (1) reducing headcount significantly via lay-offs and an unpaid furlough program that started at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2022 and that have continued; (2) temporarily suspending production in the first quarter of 2023 in order to relocate operations to a new facility and focus purchases on the minimum needed to resume production, which was resumed in February 2023; (3) negotiating payment plans with the Company’s vendors that are critical to the Company’s operations; and (4) monetizing assets that may not be critical to the core business. Management also plans to pursue other financing solutions through the credit and equity markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such additional financing or, if available, that it will be on favorable terms or that the Company will be able to sufficiently reduce costs for any such additional financing to meet its needs. Therefore, the plans cannot be deemed probable of being implemented. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2023, and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.

ARCIMOTO, INC.
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The preparation of 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 and its related disclosures. Actual amounts could differ materially from those estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using
the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”)) or net realizable value.

The Company is required to remit partial prepayments
for some purchases of its inventories acquired from overseas vendors which are included in prepaid inventory. The Company is currently
selling vehicles below the base cost of a finished unit. Accordingly, the Company expensed all labor and overhead as period costs and
recorded an allowance to reduce certain inventories to net realizable value of approximately $
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets primarily consist of trade names/trademarks,
proprietary technology, and customer relationships. They are amortized using the straight-lined method over a period of
Net Loss per Share
The Company’s computation of loss per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., common stock warrants and common stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of the inputs and distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
9
ARCIMOTO, INC.
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Fair value estimates discussed herein were based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company measures convertible notes, the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for details.
Convertible Notes, Mortgage Loan, Derivative Liabilities and Warrants
We have elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10-25 to account for the convertible notes as well as the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrants. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. The fair valuation of these convertible notes, mortgage loan, derivative liabilities, and warrants use inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. Under this option, changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gain/loss on convertible notes, mortgage loan and warrants fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Refer to Note 6 – Mortgage Loan, Note 9 – Convertible Notes, and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for additional details regarding the fair value and significant assumptions utilized.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) which replaces the current incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans receivable and trade accounts receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments) and net investment in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 – Leases. ASU 2016-13 also made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities and requires credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on such securities management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not, they will be required to sell. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07) which aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures regarding segment expenses. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and has not yet completed its assessment of ASU 2023-07’s impact on its financial statements.
The Company does not believe there are any other recently issued and effective or not yet effective pronouncements that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTE 8: LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company has active operating lease arrangements for office space and production facilities. The Company is typically required to make fixed minimum rent payments relating to its right to use the underlying leased asset. In accordance with the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recorded right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities for these leases as of January 1, 2022.
The Company has lease agreements which contain both lease and non-lease components, which it has elected to account for as a single lease component when the payments are fixed. As such, variable lease payments not dependent on an index or rate, such as real estate taxes, common area maintenance, and other costs that are subject to fluctuation from period to period are not included in lease measurement. The Company includes extensions in the determination of the lease term when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised.
The Company’s lease agreements do not provide an implicit borrowing rate. Therefore, the Company used a benchmark approach to derive an appropriate incremental borrowing rate. The Company benchmarked itself against other companies of similar credit ratings and comparable credit quality and derived an incremental borrowing rate to discount each of its lease liabilities based on the remaining lease term.

NOTE 15: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of instruments:
| ● | Cash and cash equivalents – The carrying amount reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value. | |
| ● | Accounts receivable – The carrying amount reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value. | |
| ● | Accounts payable and accrued expenses—The carrying amount reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value. | |
| ● | Warrant liabilities – Fair value is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with inputs and assumptions including the Company’s equity valuation, expected volatility, expected duration of the warrants, and associated risk-free rate. | |
| ● | Derivative liabilities – Fair value is estimated using a binomial lattice methodology with inputs and assumptions including the Company’s equity valuation, expected volatility, expected duration of the warrants, and associated risk-free rate. | |
| ● | Convertible Notes carried under the fair value option – Fair value is estimated using a binomial lattice methodology with inputs and assumptions including the Company’s equity valuation, expected volatility, expected duration of the warrants, and associated risk-free rate. | |
| ● | Mortgage Loan carried under the fair value option – Fair value is estimated used a discounted cash flow model. |
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into the following categories:
| ● | Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
| ● | Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. | |
| ● | Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions or external inputs from inactive markets. |

NOTE 16: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. There are two types of subsequent events: (1) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements, and (2) non-recognized, or those that provide evidence with respect to conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose subsequent to that date.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and up to the time of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The discussions that follow reflect this evaluation.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and are likely to, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors discussed from time to time in this report and in other documents which we file with the SEC. In addition, such statements could be affected by risks and uncertainties related to:
| ● | our ability to identify financing sources to fund our capital expenditure requirements and continue operations until sufficient cash flow can be generated from operations; |
| ● | our ability to lower production costs to achieve cost-effective mass production, which we believe will be an important factor affecting adoption of the products; |
| ● | our ability to effectively execute our business plan and growth strategy; |
| ● | unforeseen or recurring operational problems at our facility, or a catastrophic loss of our manufacturing facility; |
| ● | our dependence on our suppliers, whose ability to supply us may be negatively impacted; |

| ● | changes in U.S. and foreign trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences; |
| ● | changes in the competitive environment, including adoption of technologies and products that compete with our products; |
| ● | our ability to generate consistent revenues; |
| ● | our ability to design, produce and market our vehicles within projected timeframes given that a vehicle consists of several thousand unique items and we can only go as fast as the slowest item; |
| ● | our experience to date in manufacturing and our ability to manufacture increasing numbers of vehicles at the volumes that we need in order to meet our goals; |
| ● | our reliance on as well as our ability to attract and retain key personnel; |
| ● | changes in the price of oil and electricity; |
29
| ● | changes in laws or regulations governing our business and operations; |
| ● | our ability to maintain adequate liquidity and financing sources and an appropriate level of debt, if any, on terms favorable to our company; |

| ● | our ability to maintain quality control over our vehicles and avoid material vehicle recalls; |
| ● | our ability to manage the distribution channels for our products, including our ability to successfully implement our direct to consumer distribution strategy and any additional distribution strategies we may deem appropriate; |
| ● | our ability to obtain and protect our existing intellectual property protections including patents; |
| ● | changes in accounting principles, or their application or interpretation, and our ability to make estimates and the assumptions underlying the estimates, which could have an effect on earnings or losses; |
| ● | interest rates and the credit markets; |
| ● | costs and risks associated with litigation; and |
| ● | other risks described from time to time in periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC. |
The foregoing list does not contain all potential risks and uncertainties.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 should be read together with our unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs and expected performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth above. We caution that assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events may, and often do, vary from actual results and the differences can be material. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
Arcimoto, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007, with the mission to create a right-sized, sustainable transportation system. Recognizing that almost ninety percent of daily drives in the U.S. are ten miles or less, we have created and patented a three-wheeled electric vehicle platform that is one of the most efficient electric vehicles on the market. Featuring dual-motor front wheel drive and an optimized center of gravity for nimble and balanced rides, this vehicle platform provides a 102 city mile range on one charge, and has an industry-leading miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent of 173.7.
On this platform, we currently manufacture a family of products targeting a wide range of everyday uses: the Fun Utility Vehicle® (“FUV®”) is for daily driving, ridesharing and rental operations. The Modular Utility Vehicle (“MUV”) features a variety of configurations including: a box design with a storage capacity of 25 cubic feet that serves the last-mile delivery of food and goods, a Flatbed design that can serve commercial and logistic needs, and a pickup-with-rails design perfect for agricultural and outdoor jobs. The Company’s Rapid Responder® brings the speed and maneuverability of the platform to emergency services like fire and rescue, along with campus and event security.
Weighing less than half of most internal-combustion-engine vehicles, our platform provides instant torque for an exhilarating and fun ride unlike any other. With a top speed of 75 miles per hour our vehicle platform is freeway-ready, and its smaller footprint provides more parking options for easy maneuverability into compact spaces. While individual drivers will enjoy the cost-savings of an ultra-efficient electric vehicle, we believe companies that own fleets of vehicles will also see the benefits of our vehicles.
The Company’s primary focus is on volume-production planning and reaching sustainable profitability. On April 19, 2021, the Company purchased an approximately 220,000 square-foot facility to expand production capabilities. The Company produced its 1000th FUV in June 2023, and is executing on its growth strategy while working to secure additional financing.
At the Company, we believe that if we right-size, electrify, and better utilize our vehicles, we can reclaim our shared space, help clean our skies, and make cities more livable for us all.
Platform and Technologies
The Company is fundamentally a technology company. Its first decade was spent developing and refining eight generations of a new three-wheeled electric vehicle platform: a light-footprint, nimble reverse-trike architecture that features a low center of gravity for stability on the road; dual-motor front-wheel drive for enhanced traction; can be parked three to a space while carrying two large adults comfortably, and is more efficient, by an order of magnitude, than today’s gas-powered cars. The Company has secured 13 utility patents on various constituent technologies and vehicle platform architectures. The Company has teamed with several companies to evaluate the Company’s manufacturing processes and supply chain management in order to drive down costs and increase the volume of production of the Company’s ultra-efficient electric vehicles. This project progressed significantly, primarily due to the purchase of a new production facility and additional capital manufacturing equipment, continued production ramp planning, and product architecture sourcing-selection across all major vehicle subsystems.

Products
The Company’s vehicle products are based on the Arcimoto Platform, which includes the basic lower framed structure and certain key components of our vehicles. While intended to serve very different market segments, an estimated 90% of the constituent parts are the same between all products currently in production and development.
FUV®
The Company’s flagship product is the FUV. The FUV delivers a thrilling ride experience, exceptional maneuverability, comfort for two passengers with cargo, highly-efficient parking (three FUVs to a single parking space), and ultra-efficient operation, all at an affordable price. Over time, we anticipate offering the FUV with several option packages to meet the needs of a variety of customers.
We led with a consumer product because we are a consumer-first brand. We believe individuals should be able to choose more efficient, more affordable, and lighter-footprint mobility solutions, so that more of us can participate in the transition to a sustainable transportation future.
Deliverator®
Development of the Deliverator was officially announced on March 19, 2019 with the reveal of the first Deliverator prototype. The Deliverator is currently in production.
The Deliverator is a pure electric, last-mile delivery solution designed to more quickly, efficiently, and affordably get goods where they need to go. The Deliverator can carry a wide array of products, from pizza, groceries, and cold goods to the 65 billion parcels delivered worldwide annually.
Arcimoto Flatbed
The Arcimoto Flatbed prototype was introduced at the FUV & Friends Summer Showcase on July 26, 2021. Similar to the Deliverator, it eschews the rear seat, this time for a pickup-style flatbed instead of an enclosed cargo area. Retail sales of the flatbed are in limited production.
TRiO
In February 2021, the Company acquired Tilting Motor Works and is currently selling their TRiO motorcycle upgrade kit, which transforms a traditional two-wheeled motorcycle into a leaning three-wheeled motorcycle. In February 2022, the Company introduced a second vehicle platform prototype and the first product concept on that platform, a class 3 e-trike codenamed the Mean Lean Machine™ (“MLM”). Research and development on the MLM has been put on hold as part of our operating cost-cutting efforts. Sales of the TRiO kits continue.
Driverless Arcimoto
Our long-term goal is to offer the market one of the lowest cost, most efficient “last mile” human and goods shared transport solutions for the future road. We intend that our platform will provide a ready foundation for remote control and self-driving technology deployment and have begun to demonstrate that capability.
Equipped with Faction’s DriveLink™ and TeleAssist™ technologies, the completely driverless Faction D1 combines autonomy with remote human teleoperation. The driverless vehicle system retains the FUV platform’s capabilities of a 75 mph top speed and just over 100 miles of range while transporting up to 500 pounds of cargo.
Pilot projects are in current deployment with additional scale/sites being added.

Sales and Distribution Model
Arcimoto’s sales and distribution model is direct. Customers place vehicle orders on our website, and the vehicle product will be delivered directly to the end user via a common carrier or our own delivery fleet. The website ordering and vehicle configuration system is functional, with additional development planned to further automate the sales process.
We are also developing relationships with commercial fleet management companies to accelerate commercial sales.
On October 26, 2020, we announced a partnership with DHL to provide nationwide home delivery of the FUV. They are currently handling the bulk of our customer deliveries.
The Company is currently exploring additive sales channels, such as dealerships, for distribution in states where the direct sales model is currently prohibited or where strong powersports distributors exist. These channels, along with our direct-to-consumer model, could scale both service and sales in states where we currently do business.
Rental Model
The Company is augmenting the direct web purchase process with experience rental in key markets. This rental model gives prospective customers a direct experience with the physical product before purchasing, recovering some of the cost of the test drive with revenue generated by the rental. We opened our first Company-owned rental operations in San Diego, California and Eugene, Oregon in the second quarter of 2021. The first Company-owned rental center in Hawaii opened on August 20, 2022. During the fourth quarter of 2022 we opened a second Company-owned location in Kauai, Hawaii. Additional rental vehicles are available at revenue sharing partner operators across locations in Washington, Florida, California, and Oregon. We have a revenue sharing agreement with GoCars in San Diego and Las Vegas, with additional locations opening in the near future.
Our current partner list includes Island Bike Shop, Adventure Center, Scoot Scoot Rentals and the New Experience Center at Royal Sonesta Kaua’i Resort Line.
Service
Arcimoto Service is provided by the Company or through third-party service providers. The Company has implemented a robust service training program to certify all internal and 3rd party technicians. A service request to support@arcimoto.com will trigger dispatch and notification to mobile technicians. In 2022, the Company launched partnerships with B&H Electric in Pennsylvania and Midas in Oahu to provide service in those regions. Currently, in all other open states, service is provided through Arcimoto directly.
Vehicle Financing
We have secured multiple partners nationwide to apply for consumer financing on our website. We have expanded financing options for customers to pursue personal financing to purchase our FUVs.
Management Opportunities, Challenges and Risks
Production, Sales Funnel and Order Backlog
The Company temporarily paused vehicle production on January 3, 2023 as the Company sought additional capital. After raising additional capital, the Company resumed production on February 12, 2023.
The Company is focused on generating sales and rental revenue in the states where we have current rental operations and/or delivery options available for customers: California, Florida, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Hawaii and Arizona. The Company is now accepting orders from customers in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Georgia, Texas, and Washington D.C. While we expand geographical boundaries of our business operations, we also plan to expand and improve on the customers’ retail experiences by including additional rental partnerships and pop-up demo drive experiences through new Customer Experience Centers. We opened our Honolulu Experience Center on August 20, 2022. The Company intends to increase our conversion rate for both our rental operations and demo drives through increased engagement at each step of our customer journey and grow our drive volume by expanding our geographical footprint through various channels. These various channels include, but are not limited to, our rental operations, pop-up demo centers in high traffic flagship markets, strategic events and shows throughout the country and identifying new markets and expanding our brand awareness.
33
At September 30, 2023, the order backlog for our vehicles is 12, defined as a vehicle order with a customer deposit, likely configured and expecting delivery. The conversion rate from order backlog to actual sales is approximately 8.4%. During the first nine months of 2023, the volume of demo drives made by potential customers was 1,656.
Currently, we are dependent on a single supplier for our battery cells. During the third quarter of 2022, our engineering team commenced a program to expand our options of battery cell types for module development. Upon development, regulatory testing will be conducted for compliance with government safety standards. We do not expect any challenges in regard to the certification process. We also expect that future battery cell technologies may have to be certified if these purchased cells have different specifications than what already has been certified.
We continue our efforts to drive down component and parts costs of Arcimoto ultra-efficient electric vehicles. To date, substantial progress has been made in identifying the cost targets for specific vehicle configuration based on current and anticipated supply chain conditions, cost reduction for manufacturing, lean manufacturing analysis, vehicle architecture sourcing-selection for all major subsystems and the technology roadmap for future vehicles and marketing roadmap.
We have conducted multiple pilot programs with various partners to add credence to the business case for a lightweight rapid response electric vehicle. Rapid responders have been well received under these pilot programs. We will continue to build Rapid Responders in cadence with sales orders, delivered to customers via specialized upfitters, to support commercial new pilot programs.
Trends in Cash Flow, Capital Expenditures and Operating Expenses
Our capital expenditures are typically difficult to project beyond the short term given the number and breadth of our core projects at any given time and may further be impacted by uncertainties in future market conditions. We released the Arcimoto Flatbed during the second quarter of 2023, while ramping manufacturing facilities at our 10-acre campus and piloting the development and manufacture of new battery module technologies, and the pace of our capital spend may vary depending on overall priority among projects, the pace at which we meet milestones, production adjustments to and among our various products, increased capital efficiencies and the addition of new projects. We currently expect our capital expenditures to be between $500,000 to $1,000,000 in 2023. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we initiated a series of strategic plans to conserve cash and focus on immediate revenue generating products in light of the global economic environment.
Our business has been consistently generating negative cash flow from operations. Some of this is offset with better working capital management resulting in shorter days sales outstanding than days payable outstanding. We are also likely to see heightened levels of capital expenditures during certain periods depending on the specific pace of our capital-intensive projects and rising material prices and increasing supply chain and labor expenses resulting from changes in global trade conditions. Moreover, while our stock price was significantly elevated during parts of 2021, we saw higher levels of exercise of investor warrants and options from employee equity plans, which obligates us to deliver shares pursuant to the terms of those agreements. In the long run, we expect our ability to be self-funding to be achieved as we approach a sales volume of approximately 2,500 vehicles per year and as long as macroeconomic factors support growth in our sales, and engineering cost reductions and volume pricing improve materials cost. On November 11, 2022, our shareholders approved an agreement to obtain additional funding (with certain restrictions) in order to finance our operations and growth with a $50,000,000 equity line of credit. Due to the January 18, 2023 common stock and warrant offering, the Company is restricted from utilizing the equity line of credit or the Canaccord Genuity LLC at-the-market (“ATM”) facility for a period of one year. The shareholders also approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s stock of 1-for-20 that was completed on November 11, 2022. These series of actions allow us to access funds from the capital markets which will be used to fund our operations in the foreseeable future. We also completed offerings of our Common Stock and warrants which resulted in proceeds of approximately $13,362,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses.
34
Operating expenses decreased by approximately 59% or $8,181,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 50% or $16,874,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily due to, among other things, a reduction in workforce, as the number of employees decreased by approximately 63%, from 325 as of September 30, 2022, to 120 employees as of September 30, 2023. The decrease in staff was due to a company-wide restructuring program in the fourth quarter of 2022 that was aimed at reducing overall overhead costs. We continue to monitor staffing levels in order to meet operational needs.
Risks and Uncertainties
In the future, the Company may not have the capital resources necessary to further the development of existing and/or new products. In October 2022, we initiated a series of strategic restructuring plans in order to focus on our revenue-generating lines of business. These actions resulted in cancellations or postponements of material supplier contracts as well as a significant reduction in workforce in order to conserve cash that is prioritized for immediate revenue-generating activities.
Although we have taken strategic steps to improve our cost structure, our current cost structure, along with other factors including market penetration in the states we are currently doing business, does not allow us to achieve profitability. Although we are constantly trying to improve our cost structure and market penetration, we may not succeed to the point where we can achieve profitability consistently. Also, Arcimoto may not be able to reduce costs to the level necessary to unlock the market potential for our products.
We may, from time to time, be subject to recalls due to, among other things, software glitches and/or faulty parts which may require us to provide warranty repairs to our customers. These additional warranties may have a negative impact on our financial resources, which may in turn, negatively impact our financial results.
New Accounting Pronouncements
For a description of new accounting pronouncements, please refer to the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience, as appropriate, and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. See Note 2 to our Condensed Financial Statements under Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”)) or net realizable value. We expense all labor and overhead costs as we are currently selling vehicles below the base cost of a finished unit. As such, our inventory costs consist mainly of material costs. Due to external economic conditions, including supply chain issues and inflation, among other things, such costs may fluctuate significantly over time and affect our results of operations.
35
Convertible Notes, Mortgage Loan, Derivative Liabilities, and Warrants
We have elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10-25 to account for the $4,500,000 and $10,000,000 convertible notes, as well as the mortgage loan and warrants. In addition, the mezzanine classified Series D 8% Convertible Preferred Stock was initially value at fair value using a binomial lattice model. The conversion option and tranched rights associated with the Series D 8% Convertible Preferred Stock (the derivative liabilities) were valued using a with or without and Black-Scholes model, respectively. We have utilized a binomial lattice methodology in estimating the fair values of the convertible notes. The mortgage loan fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow model. The warrant fair values were estimated using a Black Scholes model. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. The fair valuation of these convertible notes, mortgage loan, derivatives, and warrants use inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. Under this option, changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gain/loss on changes in fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Operating Expenses
Research and Development (“R&D”) Expenses
R&D expenses decreased by $5,358,000 or 82% during the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period last year primarily due to the reduction in workforce, a corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation relating from fewer employees, and a 70% reduction in consulting services and 97% decrease in R&D projects. R&D expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $1,164,000 and $6,521,000, respectively.
Sales and Marketing (“S&M”) Expenses
S&M expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $1,340,000 and $3,322,000, respectively. The primary reasons for the decrease in S&M expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2023 of approximately $1,982,000, or 60%, as compared to the prior period were the reduction in workforce, a corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees, and a 72% reduction in advertising expenses.
General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses
G&A expenses consist primarily of personnel and facilities costs related to executives, finance, human resources, information technology, as well as legal fees for professional and contract services. G&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $3,076,000 as compared to approximately $4,099,000 for the same period last year, representing an decrease of approximately $1,023,000, or 25%. The decrease was primarily due to, among other things, the reduction in workforce, the corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees and a 100% reduction in lobbying costs.
37
Financing Costs
We recorded financing costs of approximately $16,583,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 consisting of $300,000 facility fee on the Mortgage Loan and the excess of the issuance date fair value of the warrants and Series D Preferred Stock issued in August 2023 over the cash proceeds received resulting in financing costs of $16,283,000.
Unrealized Gain on Convertible Note, Mortgage Loan, Warrants and Derivatives
We recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $10,979,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of the mark-to-market to fair value for our convertible notes, mortgage loan, warrant liabilities, and derivatives in accordance with the election of the fair value option under ASC 825-10. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $2,123,000 as a result of the mark-to-market to fair value for our convertible notes in accordance with the election of the fair value option under ASC 825-10 and the bifurcated warrants issued in conjunction with our $10,000,000 convertible note.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $716,000, as compared to $85,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense was due to a $28,000 payment made to an equipment vendor for interest on an outstanding payable balance, and $660,000 for interest on the notes payable - related party.
Other (income) expense, net
Other (income) expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $98,000, as compared to $84,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in expense was due to a purchase order cancellation charge paid to a vendor.

Revenues
Total revenue increased approximately $50,000 or 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in outside services revenue which relates to the fabrication of service parts for a customer using the Company’s manufacturing equipment.
The Company had approximately $4,224,000 in revenue, net of discounts, comprising approximately $3,515,000 in net revenue from the sales of our vehicles and related products and accessories, approximately $548,000 in TMW net revenue and approximately $161,000 in net revenue from rental operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. We had approximately $4,174,000 in revenue, comprising of approximately $3,206,000 in net revenue from the sales of our vehicles, approximately $756,000 in TMW net revenue and approximately $212,000 in net revenue from rental operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Cost of Goods Sold (“COGS”)
Cost of goods sold decreased by approximately $7,711,000 or 45%, primarily driven by the reduction in workforce, the corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees, and a 12% and 32% reduction in freight and consumable costs, respectively.

Operating Expenses
Research and Development (“R&D”) Expenses
R&D expenses decreased by $10,427,000 or 74% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period last year primarily due to the reduction in workforce, the corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees, and a 79% reduction in consulting services, and an 85% reduction in R&D projects. R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $3,717,000 and $14,144,000, respectively.
Sales and Marketing (“S&M”) Expenses
S&M expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $4,261,000 and $9,319,000, respectively. The primary reasons for the decrease in S&M expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of approximately $5,058,000, or 54%, as compared to the prior period were the reduction in workforce, the corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees, and a 64% reduction in advertising expenses.
General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses
G&A expenses consist primarily of personnel and facilities costs related to executives, finance, human resources, information technology, as well as legal fees for professional and contract services. G&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were approximately $8,792,000 as compared to approximately $10,584,000 for the same period last year, representing a decrease of approximately $1,792,000, or 17%. The decrease was primarily due to, among other things, the reduction in workforce, the corresponding reduction in stock-based compensation resulting from fewer employees, a 91% reduction in lobbying costs, and a 51% reduction in consulting services.
39
Financing Costs
We recorded financing costs of approximately $21,827,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, consisting of $600,000 related to the loan fee and $300,000 facility fee on the Mortgage Loan, the excess of the issuance date fair value of the warrants and common shares issued in June 2023 over the cash proceeds received resulting in financing costs of $3,767,000, the excess of the issuance date fair value of the warrants and Series D 8% Preferred Stock issued in August 2023 over the cash proceeds received resulting in financing costs of $16,283,000 and offering costs for liability classified warrants of $877,000.
Unrealized Gain on Convertible Note, Mortgage Loan and Warrants
We recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $14,149,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to approximately $23,000 of unrealized loss for the same period last year, as a result of the mark-to-market to fair value for our convertible notes, mortgage loan and warrant liabilities in accordance with the election of the fair value option under ASC 825-10.
Loss on debt extinguishment
Loss on debt extinguishment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $2,926,000 related to the extinguishment of the September 2022 Convertible Note.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $1,027,000, as compared to $259,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense was related to the $102,000 payment made to a capital equipment vendor for interest on an outstanding payable balance, and $660,000 for interest on the notes payable, and $75,000 for interest on the notes payable - related party.
Other (income) expense, net
Other (income) expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $114,000, as compared to $13,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in expense was due to a purchase order cancellation charge paid to a vendor.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our cash flows from operating activities are significantly affected by our cash outflows to support the growth of our business in areas such as R&D, S&M and G&A expenses. Our operating cash flows are also affected by our working capital needs to support personnel related expenditures, accounts payable, inventory purchases and other current assets and liabilities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 cash used in operating activities was approximately $15,314,000, which included a net loss of approximately $34,719,000, non-cash charges of $16,941,000 and changes in net working capital and other items that contributed to cash and cash equivalent reduction of approximately $1,887,000. Our net loss was primarily due to, among other things, sales volume not currently commensurate to operating expenses.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 cash used in operating activities was approximately $40,864,000, which included a net loss of approximately $47,322,000, non-cash charges of $8,628,000 and changes in net working capital and other items that contributed to cash and cash equivalent reduction of approximately $2,170,000. Our net loss was primarily due to, among other things, (1) spending on R&D expenditures to develop and improve new technology in connection with our product lines and new designs of our production processes in anticipation of future increases in production volume, and (2) spending on S&M expenses as we increased our sales force in order to ramp up our marketing efforts and activities to increase our brand awareness and conduct road shows. Our inventory increased in anticipation of future sales and production growth while our accounts payable increased, primarily due to timing.
If any event of default occurs, the full principal amount of the note shall become, at the payee’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. Commencing 3 days after the occurrence of any event of default that results in the acceleration of the note, interest accrues at the rate of 18% per annum, or such lower maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law.
40
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash flows from investing activities primarily relate to the capital expenditures to support our growth in operations, including investments in manufacturing equipment and tooling. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 we received a refund of approximately $611,000 from the return of property and equipment.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid approximately $332,000 and $9,372,000, respectively, to purchase property and equipment in anticipation of our future production growth.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $14,800,000 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $37,484,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Cash flows provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 comprised of proceeds from the issuance of common stock and warrants through our registered offerings of approximately $13,362,000 (net of offering costs of approximately $1,133,000), proceeds from mortgage loan of approximately $6,000,000, reduced by debt issuance costs of approximately $600,000, proceeds from related party notes payable of $500,000, reduced by payments of related party notes payable of $250,000, payments on capital lease obligations and equipment notes of approximately $712,000 and repayment of convertible notes of $7,500,000.
On August 8, 2023, the Company signed two promissory notes totaling $660,000 at an original issue discount purchase price of $600,000. The principal of $660,000 was paid on August 21, 2023. Prior to the maturity on August 15, 2023, the notes did not bear interest. The noteholders had the right to convert any outstanding principal balance of the note, in whole or in part, into securities of the Company at a rate of 125% of the converted principal amount in connection with any new financing of the Company.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 comprised of proceeds from the issuance of common stock through our registered offerings of approximately $26,517,000 (net of offering costs of approximately $871,000), proceeds from exercise of warrants of approximately $20,000, proceeds from equipment notes of approximately $177,000, proceeds from the exercise of options of approximately $91,000, and net proceeds from convertible note of $13,500,000, reduced by payments of notes payable of approximately $2,039,000, payments on finance lease obligations of approximately $305,000, equipment notes of approximately $482,000, and payments of convertible note of approximately $162,000.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Because we are allowed to comply with the disclosure obligations applicable to a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, with respect to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Management uses the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013) to evaluate internal disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has not been any material change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f)) during the three months ended September 30, 2023, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| NATURE OF OPERATIONS | NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Arcimoto, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 21, 2007. The Company’s mission is to catalyze the global shift to a sustainable transportation system. Over the past 16 years, the Company has developed a new vehicle platform designed around the needs of everyday drivers. Having approximately one-third the weight and one-third of the footprint of the average car, the Arcimoto platform’s purpose is to bring the joy of ultra-efficient, pure electric driving to the masses.

| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split
On November 11, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split of 1-for-20. This action enabled the Company to access additional funds for operational needs by maintaining its listing requirements. The 1-for-20 reverse stock split decreased the number of outstanding shares and increased net loss per common share. All per share and share amounts presented have been retroactively adjusted for the effect of this reverse stock split for all periods presented.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and management expects losses to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand to pay obligations as they come due.
Furthermore, the Company’s accounts payable balance is approximately $9,500,000 at February 9, 2024, of which a significant amount is more than 30 days past due.
Management has evaluated these conditions and concluded that they raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the issuance of these unaudited financial statements. Management has initiated a series of actions to alleviate the Company’s financial situation: (1) reducing headcount significantly via lay-offs and an unpaid furlough program that started at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2022 and that have continued; (2) temporarily suspending production in the first quarter of 2023 in order to relocate operations to a new facility and focus purchases on the minimum needed to resume production, which was resumed in February 2023; (3) negotiating payment plans with the Company’s vendors that are critical to the Company’s operations; and (4) monetizing assets that may not be critical to the core business. Management also plans to pursue other financing solutions through the credit and equity markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such additional financing or, if available, that it will be on favorable terms or that the Company will be able to sufficiently reduce costs for any such additional financing to meet its needs. Therefore, the plans cannot be deemed probable of being implemented. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2023, and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.
The preparation of 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 and its related disclosures. Actual amounts could differ materially from those estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”)) or net realizable value. Inventories consist mainly of purchased electric motors, electrical storage and transmission equipment, and component parts. Raw materials include parts that have been sub-assembled and manufactured parts.
The Company is required to remit partial prepayments for some purchases of its inventories acquired from overseas vendors which are included in prepaid inventory. The Company is currently selling vehicles below the base cost of a finished unit. Accordingly, the Company expensed all labor and overhead as period costs and recorded an allowance to reduce certain inventories to net realizable value of approximately $849,000 and $1,280,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The amount expensed for all labor and overhead was approximately $5,219,000 and $11,362,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1,763,000 and $4,289,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets primarily consist of trade names/trademarks, proprietary technology, and customer relationships. They are amortized using the straight-lined method over a period of 10 to 14 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of its finite-lived intangible assets when there are indications of potential impairment.
Net Loss per Share
The Company’s computation of loss per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., common stock warrants and common stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
The following table presents the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for calculating net loss per share:
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company excluded the outstanding Employee Equity Plans (“EEP”) and other securities summarized below calculated using the Treasury Stock Method for options and other instruments and the If-Converted Method for convertible notes, which entitled the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
All options and warrants were excluded from the table above as they are out of the money.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of the inputs and distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Fair value estimates discussed herein were based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company measures convertible notes, the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for details.
Convertible Notes, Mortgage Loan, Derivative Liabilities and Warrants
We have elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10-25 to account for the convertible notes as well as the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrants. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. The fair valuation of these convertible notes, mortgage loan, derivative liabilities, and warrants use inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. Under this option, changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gain/loss on convertible notes, mortgage loan and warrants fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Refer to Note 6 – Mortgage Loan, Note 9 – Convertible Notes, and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for additional details regarding the fair value and significant assumptions utilized.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) which replaces the current incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans receivable and trade accounts receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments) and net investment in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 – Leases. ASU 2016-13 also made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities and requires credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on such securities management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not, they will be required to sell. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07) which aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures regarding segment expenses. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and has not yet completed its assessment of ASU 2023-07’s impact on its financial statements.
The Company does not believe there are any other recently issued and effective or not yet effective pronouncements that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. |

| MORTGAGE LOAN | NOTE 6: MORTGAGE LOAN
On February 17, 2023, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Arcimoto Property Holding Company, LLC (“Borrower”) entered into a loan (“Mortgage Loan”) with HRE FUV Lending, LLC (the “Lender”) and issued a related Promissory Note (the “Note”) payable to the Lender. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan and the Note, the Borrower is receiving a $6,000,000 loan secured by all the real properties of the Borrower and all equity interests of Borrower. The loan (i) has an initial term of six months with the possibility of a further six month extension upon the satisfaction of certain conditions; (ii) has an interest rate equal to 20% per annum of the first six months (with the possibility of retroactive reduction to 10% if repaid in full within such six (6) months without an event of default having occurred) and zero percent (0%) per annum for the six (6) month extension period; (iii) requires an upfront fee to Lender of $600,000 on the date the loan is made (and an additional facility fee to Lender of $300,000 if the loan is not repaid in full within the first six (6) months or if an event of default occurs); (iv) requires that, in the event of prepayment, a minimum of $600,000 in interest must have been paid (with the possibility of reduction to $300,000 if repaid in full within the first six (6) months if no event of default has occurred); (v) provides that $500,000 of the loan amount is retained as a holdback by Lender for disbursement to Borrower only after certain construction is completed at the real property and the cost of such construction is paid in full by Borrower; (vi) contemplates an increase in the interest rate if an event of default occurs; (vii) is fully guaranteed by Holdings and is subject to a limited recourse guaranty by the Company. The $500,000 holdback was received by the Company during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. On July 14, 2023, the Company extended the maturity date of the loan six months to February 2024. As a result of the extension, the Company paid a $300,000 facility fee and accrued an additional $600,000 fee to facilitate the extension, which were expensed as financing costs and interest expense, respectively.
The Company elected to account for this mortgage loan using the fair value option. In estimating the fair value of this debt, a discounted cash flows model was used. The required inputs include the principal, payment terms, maturity date, and yield of 10.71%. The note’s fair value measurement is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.” The fair valuation of this mortgage loan uses inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly in a discounted cash flows model. Under this option, changes in fair value of the debt are recorded as an unrealized loss on mortgage loan fair value in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations at inception of $336,194. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $551,574 and loss of $1,038,511, respectively. The fair value of the loan was $7,038,511 as of September 30, 2023.

| LEASES | NOTE 8: LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company has active operating lease arrangements for office space and production facilities. The Company is typically required to make fixed minimum rent payments relating to its right to use the underlying leased asset. In accordance with the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recorded right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities for these leases as of January 1, 2022.
The Company has lease agreements which contain both lease and non-lease components, which it has elected to account for as a single lease component when the payments are fixed. As such, variable lease payments not dependent on an index or rate, such as real estate taxes, common area maintenance, and other costs that are subject to fluctuation from period to period are not included in lease measurement. The Company includes extensions in the determination of the lease term when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised.
The Company’s lease agreements do not provide an implicit borrowing rate. Therefore, the Company used a benchmark approach to derive an appropriate incremental borrowing rate. The Company benchmarked itself against other companies of similar credit ratings and comparable credit quality and derived an incremental borrowing rate to discount each of its lease liabilities based on the remaining lease term.
The components of operating lease expense recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations were as follows:
Variable lease cost for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was not material.
Right of use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:
The weighted-average remaining lease term for operating leases was 1.92 years and the weighted-average incremental borrowing rate was 8.8% as of September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, future minimum lease payments required under operating leases are as follows:
Finance Leases
As of September 30, 2023, the Company has financed through lease agreements a total of approximately $1,867,000 of its capital equipment purchases with monthly payments ranging from approximately $1,600 to $14,000, repayment terms ranging from 48 to 60 months, and effective interest rates ranging from 2.67% to 7.44%. Monthly lease payments for all finance leases as of September 30, 2023 are approximately $39,000. These lease obligations mature ranging from May 2026 through February 2028 and are secured by approximately $3,901,000 in underlying assets which have approximately $964,000 in accumulated depreciation as of September 30, 2023. The balance of finance lease obligations was approximately $1,354,995 and $1,300,011 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

| CONVERTIBLE NOTES | NOTE 9: CONVERTIBLE NOTES
$4,500,000 Convertible Promissory Note (“April 2022 Note”)
On April 25, 2022, the Company (“Debtor”) entered into a $4,500,000 convertible promissory note agreement with Ducera Investments LLC - 2022 Series A (“Creditor”) whereby the Debtor agrees to pay the Creditor the amount borrowed plus interest accrued at an annual rate of 10% compounded quarterly. Subject to certain conditions, interest on the promissory note accrues as additional principal. The term of the April 2022 Note is five years unless conversion privileges are exercised. Conversion can occur at the option of the Creditor, the Debtor or upon maturity and is described below:
(i) The Creditor has the option to convert the promissory note at any time prior to the maturity date, in full or in part, into the number of shares of common stock (“Common Stock”), no par value, of the Company equal to the amount determined by dividing the principal amount of this note plus the accrued interest by $140.00 ($7.00 - pre reverse split), subject to adjustment (as adjusted, the “Conversion Price”); (ii) at any time prior to the maturity date, the Debtor may convert the note, in full or in part, at the Conversion Price provided that, in order to exercise the conversion, the closing share price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Closing Share Price”) for the thirty (30) consecutive trading days prior to, and including, the conversion date exceeds the per share price required to provide the Creditor with shares having a market value of at least 4.5 times $4,500,000 upon conversion; and (iii) if none of a Creditor’s election to convert shares or the Company’s election to convert shares has occurred, then upon the maturity date, the outstanding principal plus accrued interest on the note shall convert into shares of the common stock at the lesser of the Conversion Price and the greater of (x) the per share price required to provide the Creditor with shares having a market value of at least 4 times $4,500,000, and (y) $86.60 (the “Floor Conversion Price”) ($4.33 pre reverse split). In the event that the notes are converted at the Floor Conversion Price, the Company shall also pay to the Creditor on the maturity date a cash payment equal to (x) the principal amount of the note at the maturity date minus (y) the Converted Equity Market Value (as defined below) divided by 4. “Converted Equity Market Value” means the value of the shares of common stock delivered to the Creditor based on a share price equal to the lower of: (i) 10-day volume weighted average price of the common stock for the 10-days immediately prior to, but excluding, the maturity date and (ii) the Closing Share Price on the day immediately prior to the maturity date.
Arcimoto has elected to measure the note at fair value. In estimating the fair value of this debt, a binomial lattice model was used. The required inputs include the estimated term of 3.57 years, risk-free rate of 4.69%, the Company’s stock volatility of 111.91%, stock price on valuation date of $0.84, and a risk premium of 9.48%. The note’s fair value measurement is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.” The fair valuation of this convertible note uses inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. Under this option, changes in fair value of the convertible debt are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on convertible note fair value in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 15 “Fair Value Measurements” for further details. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized gain (loss) of $80,550 and $364,110 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and $1,925,190 and $(220,350) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The balance on this note is $4,523,580 and $4,887,690 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is classified as a long-term liability on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
$10,000,000 Senior Secured Convertible Note (“September 2022 Note”)
On August 31, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with a third-party investor (the “Buyer” or the “Holder”). Under the terms of the SPA, the Company issued to the Buyer the notes and warrants pursuant to a then currently effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which had sufficient availability for the issuance of the securities on each closing date.
Under the SPA, the Company authorized the issuance of one or more series of senior secured convertible notes of the Company, in the aggregate original principal amount of $20,000,000. Such notes shall be convertible into shares of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company. Further, the Company authorized the issuance of warrants to acquire up to an aggregate of 25,000 shares of common stock. The notes ranked senior to all outstanding and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and was secured by a second priority perfected security interest in all of the existing and future assets of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, if any, including a pledge of all of the capital stock of each of the subsidiaries.
On September 1, 2022 (the “Issuance Date”), one note (the “September 2022 Note”) in the amount of $10,000,000 with 25,000 accompanying warrants (the “Warrants”) were issued to the Buyer. The September 2022 Note was issued with a principal amount of $10,000,000 and an original issue discount of $600,000, payable in 24 periodic installments with a coupon rate of 6%, and with a maturity date of September 1, 2024. At the option of the Company, periodic installments can be paid in either cash or common stock (at an 8% discount) to the Holder. Payments in cash were subject to an additional premium and are recorded as additional interest expense. In the event of a default, the interest rate is increased to 15%, which is the default rate. At any time on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder is entitled to convert any unpaid principal plus accrued interest at a conversion price of $5.00 per share. The SPA also provided for the Holder to require payment of principal and unpaid interest up to four times per period. This provision allowed the September 2022 Note to be settled in full over a six-month period at the Holder’s option. In addition, a certain percentage of cash received from issuances of shares in conjunction with the ATM discussed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies was used to pay down the principal of the September 2022 Note.
The Warrants are exercisable at any time or times on or after the six month and one day anniversary of the Issuance Date. The Warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date. The exercise price of each Warrant which is convertible to a share of common stock is $200.00. As a result of the issuance of the Series D Convertible Preferred Share in August 2023 the warrants associated with this convertible note were canceled and replaced with new warrants for 650,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.50.
The net proceeds of $9,400,000 (after discount) are bifurcated between the Warrants and the September 2022 Note. The amount allocated to the Warrants is $598,670, which is the fair value on the Issuance Date. The remaining amount (before debt issuance costs) of $8,801,330 was allocated to the September 2022 Note on the Issuance Date. The Company has elected to measure the note at fair value. In estimating the fair value of this debt, a binomial lattice model was used. The required inputs include the risk-free rate, the Company’s stock volatility, stock price on valuation date, and a risk premium. The note’s fair value measurement is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. Under this option, changes in fair value of the convertible debt are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on convertible note fair value in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result of this election, debt issuance costs incurred were approximately $232,669 and are expensed in Other expense/(income) on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company also recorded an unrealized loss of $0 and $15,820 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The note was repaid in full on January 23, 2023 with a loss on extinguishment of $2,925,610 recognized for the difference between the carrying value of the note and unamortized discount and the payment made to satisfy the note. The balance of the September 2022 Note was $5,639,231 at December 31, 2022. There is no remaining availability to issue convertible notes under the SPA.
The Warrants were recorded at fair value on the September 1, 2022 issuance date at $598,670 and are remeasured at fair value quarterly and are classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Warrants were valued at September 30, 2023 using the Black-Scholes model with approximately a 5.50 year expected term, risk free interest rate of 4.39%, and an annualized standard deviation of stock price volatility of 112.20%. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $(418,663) and $(50,440) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. See Note 15 “Fair Value Measurements” for further details. The balance of the Warrants at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is $424,914 and $374,474, respectively, and is recorded as Warrant liabilities in the current liabilities section of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

| MEZZANINE EQUITY AND STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY | NOTE 10: MEZZANINE EQUITY AND STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value, of which 1,500,000 shares were designated as Series A-1 Preferred Stock, 2,000,000 are designated as Class C Preferred Stock, and 1,491,534 are undesignated Preferred Stock.
The Series A-1 Preferred Stock is convertible at any time after issuance at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at the original issue price of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock. The Series A-1 Preferred Stock was also subject to mandatory conversion provisions upon an initial public offering raising $15,000,000 or more and is not redeemable. To prevent dilution, the conversion price of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock is to be adjusted for any issuance of securities, excluding exempt securities, which change the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The Series A-1 Preferred Stockholders are entitled to equal voting rights to common stockholders on an as-converted basis and receive preference to the common stockholders upon liquidation.
Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided in the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, each share of Class C Preferred Stock has one vote for the election of directors and on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. The Company is not obligated to redeem or repurchase any shares of Class C Preferred Stock. Shares of Class C Preferred Stock are not otherwise entitled to any redemption rights, or mandatory sinking fund or analogous fund provisions.
On August 14, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations (the “Certificate of Designation”) designating 8,466 shares out of the authorized but unissued shares of its preferred stock as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1,000 per share.
The holders of Series D Preferred Stock will be entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% per annum, accrued daily and compounded monthly. Dividends are payable quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning on the first such date after the date of the first issuance of any shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and on each date in which a holder of Series D Preferred Stock delivers a notice of conversion in cash. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock have no voting rights. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the then holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to receive out of the assets available for distribution to shareholders of the Company an amount equal to 100% of the stated value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and any other fees or liquidated damages then due and owing thereon, prior and in preference to the Common Stock or any other series of preferred stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible (1) at any time at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of Common Stock (subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations), determined by dividing 125% of the conversion amount by $1.20 or (2) upon the Company’s common share price exceeding 300% of the conversion price.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, 104 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were converted into 108,963 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 5,542 and shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.
2023 Third Purchase Agreements
On August 15, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Third Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (collectively, the “Third Purchasers”). The Third Purchase Agreement provides for the sale, in a private placement, by the Company of an aggregate of (i) up to 8,471 shares of the Company’s 8% Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), initially convertible into an aggregate of 1,760,298 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”) at a conversion price of $1.20 (the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, collectively, the “Conversion Shares”), and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”), to purchase up to an aggregate of 14,110,835 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares,” and together with the Series D Preferred Stock, and Warrants, the “Securities”). For purposes of conversion into Common Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock has a stated value of $8,471,000, which represents an original issue discount of 20%.
The offering is to occur in two tranches. The first closing of the transaction with gross proceeds of $4,300,002, and net proceeds of $4,225,002, after cash placement agent fees, occurred on August 15, 2023 (the “First Closing”). In addition to the cash placement agent fees, the Company issued 269 share of Series D Preferred Stock and 448,334 warrants as placement agent compensation for the August 15, 2023 offering. A total of 5,646 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued in the First Closing. The second closing of the transaction can only occur after the date that the Company has received shareholder approval of the transaction and the Common Stock underlying the Securities has been registered with the SEC, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions (the “Second Closing”). As of September 30, 2023, the Second Closing has not yet occurred due to the low trading volume of the Company’s Common Stock.
The Series D Preferred Stock is classified as a mezzanine equity and is recorded at fair value at the time of issuance. The fair value of the Series D Preferred Stock was determined to be $4,418,015 utilizing a binomial lattice model at the date of issuance. The assumptions used in the lattice model were a 1.90-year term, risk free interest rate of 4.97%, risk adjusted rate of 30.00%, and an annualized standard deviation of stock price volatility of 117.25%. Share issuance costs of $158,787 were accounted for as a reduction in the Series D Preferred Stock totaling a carrying value of $4,259,228 on the date of issuance. The value of the Series D Preferred Stock is accreted to redemption value of $4,377,422 at September 30, 2023. The Company recorded a reduction to additional paid in capital of $118,194 related to the redemption value accretion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Each Warrant has an exercise price of $1.50 per share and is exercisable upon the earlier of (i) six months from the First Closing date or (ii) the date that the Company has received shareholder approval of the transaction and the common stock underlying such Warrants has been registered with the SEC for resale (the “Initial Exercise Date”), subject to certain ownership limitations and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date. The Company has determined that the Warrants are liability classified. The fair value of the Warrants was determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model at the dates of issuance. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model were a 5.00 year expected term, risk free interest rate of 4.30%, and an annualized standard deviation of stock price volatility of 111.09%. The grant date fair value of the Warrants was $9,618,708. The Warrants were remeasured at fair value using a Black-Sholes model using a 4.88 year expected term, risk free interest rate of 4.6%, and an annualized standard deviation of stock price volatility of 113.57% resulting in a fair value of $5,930,349 at September 30, 2023. The Warrants are classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $3,688,359 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The second tranche right associated with the Second Closing was determined to be a liability classified freestanding financial instrument that requires bifurcation from the initial Series D Preferred Stock issued. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative at issuance was $2,264,629 and is remeasured at a fair value of $1,195,018 at September 30, 2023 as is recorded as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value was measured as the difference between the forward value of the second tranche less the expected proceeds to be received. The conversion options on the Series D Preferred Stock from the First Closing were also determined to be liability classified freestanding financial instruments that require bifurcation. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative at issuance was $4,365,786 and are remeasured at a fair value of $2,239,309 at September 30, 2023 as is recorded as a long-term liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value was measured as the difference between the Series D Preferred Stock with and without the conversion options. Both of the derivatives are measured at fair value each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded an unrealized gain of $3,196,088 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to the derivatives in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As the fair value of the Series D Preferred Stock, Warrants and derivative liabilities was greater than the cash proceeds received from the offering, the Company recorded the excess of fair value over proceeds received of $16,283,349 as financing costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has reserved a total of 1,848,241 and 378,296 shares of its common stock pursuant to the equity incentive plans (see Note 11 – Stock-Based Payments) as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company has 348,241 and 278,296 stock units, options and warrants outstanding under these plans as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Offerings of Common Stock and Warrants
2023 Purchase Agreements
On January 18, 2023, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain investors (collectively, the “First Purchasers”). The Purchase Agreements provide for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of (i) 3,300,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, no par value per Share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 700,000 shares of common stock and (iii) warrants (the “Common Warrants” and, together with the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Securities”) to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock. The offering price per Share and associated Common Warrants is $3.00. The offering price per Pre-Funded Warrant and associated Common Warrant is $2.9999.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable subject to certain ownership limitations, have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised immediately upon issuance. Each Common Warrant has an exercise price of $3.00 per share, will be exercisable immediately upon issuance subject to certain ownership limitations and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date on which the Common Warrants become exercisable.
Both the Pre-Funded and Common Warrants contain provisions regarding settlement in the event of a fundamental transaction that calculate the fair value of the warrants using a prespecified volatility assumption that was not consistent with the input used to value the warrants at issuance which causes the warrants to be classified as liabilities.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are recorded at fair value on January 18, 2023 at $1,735,941. As the Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercised, the fair value is recorded in equity. The Common Warrants are recorded at fair value on January 18, 2023 at $7,951,393 and are remeasured at a fair value of $2,055,008 at September 30, 2023 and are classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $2,194,743 and $5,896,385 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $12 million. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $11 million, after deducting placement agent fees and other expenses. The Company used $7,500,000 of the net proceeds from the offering to repay the September 2022 Note as disclosed in Note 9 - Convertible Notes, and the remainder of the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.
2023 Second Purchase Agreements
On June 12, 2023, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Second Purchase Agreements”) with certain investors (collectively, the “Second Purchasers”). The Second Purchase Agreements provide for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of 1,467,648 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in a registered direct offering and warrants (the “Warrants” and, together with the Shares, the “Securities”) to purchase up to 2,935,296 shares of Common Stock in a concurrent private placement (the transactions contemplated by the Second Purchase Agreements are referred to herein as the “Second Offering”). The offering price per Share and associated Warrant is $1.70. Each Warrant has an exercise price of $1.75 per share, will be exercisable six months after issuance subject to certain ownership limitations and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date on which the Warrants become exercisable.
The Second Offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.5 million. The net proceeds to the Company from the Second Offering were approximately $2.3 million, after deducting placement agent fees and expenses and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used $250,000 of the net proceeds from the offering to partially repay the Note payable - related party, and the remainder of the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to $275,000 which was 5.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by all Second Purchasers in connection with the sale of the Securities, and warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the Shares (the “Placement Agent Warrants”). The Company issued 73,529 Placement Agent Warrants. The Placement Agent Warrants have a five-year term, and are exercisable beginning six months after the closing of the Second Offering at a price of $1.87 per share. The Company recorded the aggregate placement agent fees as financing costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Warrants issued to the Second Purchasers are recorded at fair value on June 12, 2023 at $3,906,366 and are remeasured at a fair value of $1,842,282 at September 30, 2023 and are classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As the fair value of the Warrants was greater than the cash proceeds received from the offering, the Company recorded the excess of warrant fair value over proceeds received of $1,404,374 as financing costs. The 1,467,648 common shares issued in the offering had a fair value of $2,362,914. The fair value of the common shares issued were recorded as additional financing costs in the transaction because the aggregate fair value of the liability classified warrants and the common shares issued exceeded the offering proceeds. The Placement Agent Warrants are recorded at fair value on June 12, 2023 at $95,740 and are remeasured at a fair value of $44,410 at September 30, 2023 and are also classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $1,686,806 and $2,108,424 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 for the Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a remaining reserve of 220,489 shares of common stock under the 2018 Plan for outstanding grants. Since approval of the 2022 Plan, awards that are forfeited no longer become available for grant under the 2018 Plan.

The options were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with approximately a 6.1 year expected term, risk free interest rate of 2.2%, a dividend yield of 0%, and an annualized standard deviation of stock price volatility of 60.97%. These options vest over three years.
During the first nine months of 2022, 23,690 restricted stocks were issued to certain personnel and outside consultants with a grant date fair value of approximately $1,514,000. These shares were valued by using the closing date of the Company’s stock price on the date of the grant. These awards have various vesting terms, ranging from immediate vesting to one year.
No options were granted or restricted stock issued during the first nine months of 2023 under the 2018 Plan.
Total compensation cost related to non-vested awards issued under the 2018 Plan not yet recognized as of September 30, 2023 was approximately $2,666,461 and will be recognized on a straight-line basis through July 2025 based on the respective vesting periods.

| RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | NOTE 13: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Arcimoto may, from time to time, sell to its management and employees at a discounted price. Sales to such parties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were not material. Also, from time to time, the Company may make certain purchases from an entity owned by the former Chief Operating Officer. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, no purchases were made and the amount owed to the related party was nil.
On May 26, 2023, the Company entered into a $500,000 promissory note with a director of the Company (the “Related Party Note”). The principal was due and payable in cash on the earlier of (a) June 25, 2023; or (b) the date the Company raises third-party capital in an amount equal to or in excess of the principal (“Maturity Date”) in either cash or, at the option of the holder, in the event the Arcimoto issues convertible promissory notes in an offering led, or participated, by Ducera Investments LLC (“Ducera”) to third parties before the Maturity Date, in a convertible promissory note on the same terms as purchased by such third parties. On the Maturity Date, the Company paid the holder a fixed interest amount of $75,000 in the Company’s common stock calculated based on the closing stock price on the Maturity Date.
The Related Party Note was amended on June 11, 2023. The amendment provided that if the promissory note becomes due because the Company raises third-party capital in an amount equal to or in excess of $500,000, the principal amount shall be paid 50% in cash and 50% in the Company’s common stock based on the closing stock price on the Maturity Date.
On June 12, 2023, the Company completed an equity offering raise in excess of $500,000. The Related Party Note matured in connection with the offering, as described above, and was partially repaid with $250,000 in cash. The remaining principal balance and interest are to be settled by the issuance of 201,863 shares of Common Stock, which have not yet been issued.
On April 25, 2022, the Company entered into a $4,500,000 convertible promissory note agreement with Ducera, a related party because a partner at Ducera is also a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. Further disclosures are presented in Note 9 - Convertible Notes.
On September 1, 2022, Arcimoto reimbursed Ducera Investments LLC approximately $67,000 for third party legal fees and expenses in conjunction with the issuance of the September 2022 Note described in Note 9 - Convertible Notes. |

| SEGMENT REPORTING | NOTE 14: SEGMENT REPORTING
Arcimoto has three reportable segments that are identified based on its product lines and services: fun utility vehicles (“FUV”), rental and TMW. The FUV segment consists of the sale of its electric vehicle product lines while the rental segment’s operations involve generating revenue from the short-term rental of its electric vehicles via various channels or networks. The TMW segment engages in the design, production, sales, and installation of a bolt on kit that converts a two wheeled motorcycle into a tilting three wheeled motorcycle.
The reportable segments were identified based on how the Chief Operations Decision Maker (“CODM”), which in the Company’s case, is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), allocates resources to the various operations. The following tables disclose the financial information used by the CODM in allocating the Company’s resources.

| FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 15: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of instruments:
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into the following categories:
The following table sets forth our financial liabilities as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period (in thousands):
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are valued using Level 1 inputs while warrant liabilities, derivative liabilities, and convertible notes and the mortgage loan where the fair value option has been elected are valued using Level 2 inputs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $10,979,457 and $14,148,595, respectively, on the change in fair value of these liabilities.
Refer to Note 6 – Mortgage Loan, Note 9 – Convertible Notes, and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for the significant inputs and assumptions used in the valuation model for each respective financial instrument. |

| Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
| SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 16: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. There are two types of subsequent events: (1) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements, and (2) non-recognized, or those that provide evidence with respect to conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose subsequent to that date.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and up to the time of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The discussions that follow reflect this evaluation.
The Company has been sued in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon, DWFritz Automation, LLC (“DWFritz”) v. Arcimoto et al. (Case No. 23CV45784 filed on November 7, 2023) for breach of contract. DWFritz contends that through the exchange of purchases order and related documents DWFritz agreed to provide Arcimoto for certain concept, design, and manufacturing products and services. DWFritz contends they fully performed and completed work under the purchase order through the third stage, which Arcimoto failed to pay on the contractually agreed upon due date. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $871,722 accrued related to the amounts owed to DWFritz.
The Company has been sued in the state of New Jersey by Highland Capital for breach of contract. Highland Capital is seeking payment in the amount of $255,799, plus interest, attorney fees, and expense.
The Company has been sued by Roush Industries filed on January 31, 2024 for breach of contract. Roush Industries is seeking payment in the amount of $553,052, plus 18% interest beginning on September 13, 2023, as well as attorney fees and plaintiff costs.
The Company has been sued in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division, Deutsche Leasing USA, Inc. (“Deutsche Leasing”) v Arcimoto, Inc (Case No. 24-cv-00429 filed on January 25, 2024) for breach of contract. Deutsche Leasing is seeking payment of $521,792, including accelerated future principal owed under Financing Agreement. |

| 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split | 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split On November 11, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split of 1-for-20. This action enabled the Company to access additional funds for operational needs by maintaining its listing requirements. The 1-for-20 reverse stock split decreased the number of outstanding shares and increased net loss per common share. All per share and share amounts presented have been retroactively adjusted for the effect of this reverse stock split for all periods presented. |

| Going Concern | Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and management expects losses to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand to pay obligations as they come due.
Furthermore, the Company’s accounts payable balance is approximately $9,500,000 at February 9, 2024, of which a significant amount is more than 30 days past due. Management has evaluated these conditions and concluded that they raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the issuance of these unaudited financial statements. Management has initiated a series of actions to alleviate the Company’s financial situation: (1) reducing headcount significantly via lay-offs and an unpaid furlough program that started at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2022 and that have continued; (2) temporarily suspending production in the first quarter of 2023 in order to relocate operations to a new facility and focus purchases on the minimum needed to resume production, which was resumed in February 2023; (3) negotiating payment plans with the Company’s vendors that are critical to the Company’s operations; and (4) monetizing assets that may not be critical to the core business. Management also plans to pursue other financing solutions through the credit and equity markets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such additional financing or, if available, that it will be on favorable terms or that the Company will be able to sufficiently reduce costs for any such additional financing to meet its needs. Therefore, the plans cannot be deemed probable of being implemented. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

| Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2023, and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.
The preparation of 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 and its related disclosures. Actual amounts could differ materially from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. |

| Inventory | Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”)) or net realizable value. Inventories consist mainly of purchased electric motors, electrical storage and transmission equipment, and component parts. Raw materials include parts that have been sub-assembled and manufactured parts.
The Company is required to remit partial prepayments for some purchases of its inventories acquired from overseas vendors which are included in prepaid inventory. The Company is currently selling vehicles below the base cost of a finished unit. Accordingly, the Company expensed all labor and overhead as period costs and recorded an allowance to reduce certain inventories to net realizable value of approximately $849,000 and $1,280,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The amount expensed for all labor and overhead was approximately $5,219,000 and $11,362,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1,763,000 and $4,289,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. |

| Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Intangible assets primarily consist of trade names/trademarks, proprietary technology, and customer relationships. They are amortized using the straight-lined method over a period of 10 to 14 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of its finite-lived intangible assets when there are indications of potential impairment. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net Loss per Share | Net Loss per Share The Company’s computation of loss per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., common stock warrants and common stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
The following table presents the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for calculating net loss per share:
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company excluded the outstanding Employee Equity Plans (“EEP”) and other securities summarized below calculated using the Treasury Stock Method for options and other instruments and the If-Converted Method for convertible notes, which entitled the holders thereof to ultimately acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
All options and warrants were excluded from the table above as they are out of the money. |

| Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of the inputs and distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 – Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Fair value estimates discussed herein were based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures convertible notes, the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for details. |

| Convertible Notes, Mortgage Loan, Derivative Liabilities and Warrants | Convertible Notes, Mortgage Loan, Derivative Liabilities and Warrants We have elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10-25 to account for the convertible notes as well as the mortgage loan, derivative liabilities and warrants. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as provided by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”. The fair valuation of these convertible notes, mortgage loan, derivative liabilities, and warrants use inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. Under this option, changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gain/loss on convertible notes, mortgage loan and warrants fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 6 – Mortgage Loan, Note 9 – Convertible Notes, and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity for additional details regarding the fair value and significant assumptions utilized. |

| Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted | Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) which replaces the current incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans receivable and trade accounts receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments) and net investment in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 – Leases. ASU 2016-13 also made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities and requires credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on such securities management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not, they will be required to sell. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07) which aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures regarding segment expenses. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and has not yet completed its assessment of ASU 2023-07’s impact on its financial statements. The Company does not believe there are any other recently issued and effective or not yet effective pronouncements that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. |
