Previous report

Previous report

On July 23, 2021, we closed our initial public offering pursuant to which we offered and sold 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $6.00 per share (for aggregate gross proceeds of $18,000,000), pursuant to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (as amended) (File No. 333-255134), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 20, 2021, as amended by the Registration Statement on Form S-1 MEF (File No. 333-258058) filed with the SEC on July 20, 2021 and effective as of the date of filing. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $1,260,000, and other offering expenses payable by us of approximately $1,567,150, we received approximately $15,849,037 in net proceeds from our initial public offering. ThinkEquity LLC acted as the representative of the several underwriters for the offering. We also granted a 45-day option to the representative of the underwriters to purchase up to 450,000 additional shares of common stock solely to cover over-allotments, if any, which expired unexercised.

Previous report

At the time of the initial public offering, the primary use of the net proceeds was as follows: (i) approximately $1,500,000 for production and marketing of our larger fully equipped boats; (ii) approximately $2,500,000 for the design, development, testing, manufacturing and marketing of our new line of electric boats; (iii) approximately $6,000,000 for the design, development, testing, manufacturing and marketing of our fully electric propulsion system; (iv) approximately $3,500,000 for acquisition of waterfront property and development of the Electra Power Sports- EV Innovation & Testing Center, in Fort Pierce, Florida to build, design and manufacture our electric propulsion systems; and (v) the balance for working capital.

Previous report

It was originally anticipated that we would retrofit a gas-powered boat with an electric motor that would be designed by us and that we would also sell the motors to other third-party boat manufacturers to retrofit their boats. The retrofitting would require extensive development, testing and manufacturing of multiple variations of electric motors. However, consumer preference in the electric marine market was and is trending towards a single purchase of a fully integrated electric boat rather than a retrofitted existing gas and diesel fuel powered boat with electric outboard motors and battery packs. Therefore, we decided not to continue designing electric motors for retrofitting, resulting in us no longer needing any funding for the design, development, testing, manufacturing and marketing of our fully electric propulsion system and instead those funds are anticipated to be used for working capital needs.

Previous report

Further, we originally anticipated that we would acquire waterfront property for a testing center in Fort Pierce, the price of real estate in Florida has prohibited us from moving forward. Therefore, we decided to use the $3,500,000 of funds to build additional manufacturing space at our Fort Pierce location.

Previous report

The remaining planned use of proceeds has not changed since the initial public offering.
Reworded paragraphs (10)

Previous wording

On May 10, 2024, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 28, 2024 through May 9, 2024), our common stock did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 (“Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) per share as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock and the common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “VEEE.”

Current wording

On May 10, 2024, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 28, 2024 through May 9, 2024), our common stock did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 (“Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) per share as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

Previous wording

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2024, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Compliance is generally achieved by meeting the price requirement for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. However, Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require a company to satisfy the applicable price-based requirement for a period in excess of 10 consecutive business days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days, before determining that a company has demonstrated an ability to maintain long-term compliance.

Current wording

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until November 6, 2024, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

Previous wording

If, however, we do not achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by November 6, 2024, we may be eligible for additional time to comply. In order to be eligible for such additional time, we will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and must notify Nasdaq in writing of our intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period.

Current wording

Since we did not achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by November 6, 2024, we were eligible for additional time to comply. Nasdaq granted us until May 6, 2025 in order to cure the deficiency.

Previous wording

We have incurred losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, and could continue to incur losses in the future.

Current wording

We have incurred losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, and could continue to incur losses in the future.

Previous wording

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred a loss from operations of $11,987,299 and a net loss of $9,782,196. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred a loss from operations of $6,854,390 and a net loss of $5,137,294. As of June 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $18,975,713. There can be no assurance that expenses will not continue to increase in future periods or that the cash generated from operations in future periods will be sufficient to satisfy our operating needs and to generate income from operations and net income.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred a loss from operations of $10,191,513 and a net loss of $9,864,298. As of September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $21,491,078.

Previous wording

A significant portion of our sales of our gas-powered boats are derived from our network of independent dealers. We typically manufacture our gas-powered boats based upon indications of interest received from dealers who are not contractually obligated to purchase any boats. While our dealers typically have purchased all of the boats for which they have provided us with indications of interest, it is possible that a dealer could choose not to purchase boats for which it has provided an indication of interest (e.g., if it were to have reached the credit limit on its floor plan), and as a result we once experienced, and in the future could experience, excess inventory and costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, three individual dealers represented over 10% of our total sales, or 38% in total. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, one individual dealer represented over 10% of our sales, and that dealer represented 20% of total sales. The loss of a significant dealer could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The number of dealers supporting our products and the quality of their marketing and servicing efforts are essential to our ability to generate sales. Competition for dealers among other boat manufacturers continues to increase based on the quality, price, value, and availability of the manufacturers’ products, the manufacturers’ attention to customer service, and the marketing support that the manufacturer provides to the dealers. We face intense competition from other boat manufacturers in attracting and retaining dealers, affecting our ability to attract or retain relationships with qualified and successful dealers. Although our management believes that the quality of our products in the performance sport boat industry should permit us to maintain our relationships with our dealers and our market share position, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain or improve our relationships with our dealers or our market share position. In addition, independent dealers in the boating industry have experienced significant consolidation in recent years, which could result in the loss of one or more of our dealers in the future if the surviving entity in any such consolidation purchases similar products from a competitor. A substantial deterioration in the number of dealers or the quality of our network of dealers would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
