(Formerly Helbiz, Inc.)
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
(Unaudited)
1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
micromobility.com, Inc. (formerly known as Helbiz, Inc., and, together with its subsidiaries, “micromobility.com” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in October 2015 with its headquarters in New York, New York. The Company is an intra-urban transportation company that seeks to help urban areas reduce their dependency on individually owned cars by offering affordable, accessible, and sustainable forms of personal transportation, specifically addressing first and last mile transport.
Founded on proprietary technology platforms, the Company’s core business is the offering of electric vehicles in the sharing environment. Through its Mobility App, the Company offers an intra-urban transportation solution that allows users to instantly rent electric vehicles.
The Company currently has electric vehicles operating in the United States and Europe.
Basis of Presentation
These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company uses the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. For foreign subsidiaries where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, gains, and losses from remeasurement of foreign currency balances into U.S. dollars are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the foreign subsidiary where the local currency is the functional currency, translation adjustments of foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2023, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for any future annual or interim period.
2. Going Concern and Management’s Plans
The Company has experienced recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception. To date, these operating losses have been funded primarily from outside sources of invested capital. The Company had, and expects to continue to have, an ongoing need to raise additional cash from outside sources to fund its operations. Successful transition to attaining profitable operations depends upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
The Company plans to continue to fund its operations through debt and equity financing. Debt or equity financing may not be available on a timely basis on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business and, as such, the financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP generally requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of certain assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Specific accounts that require management estimates include determination of fair values of warrant and financial instruments.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which amends and enhances the disclosure requirements for reportable segments. All disclosure requirements under this standard will also be required for public entities with a single reportable segment. The new standard will be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which requires companies to provide disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The new requirements will be effective for public business entities for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory matters, indirect tax examinations or government inquiries and investigations that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these matters include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages.
| 10 |
The Company records a liability when the Company believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss in the consolidated financial statements. The Company reviews the developments in contingencies that could affect the amount of the provisions that have been previously recorded. The Company adjusts provisions and changes to disclosures accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of any potential losses and many of the legal proceedings are early in the discovery stage and unresolved.
As of December 31, 2024,
and December 31, 2023, the Company concluded that certain losses on litigation were probable and reasonable estimable; as a result, the
Company recorded as Accruals for legal contingencies, included in Other Current liabilities; $

10. Standby Equity Purchase Agreement
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into two Standby Equity Purchase Agreements (“2023 SEPAs”) with an investor. The 2023 SEPAs terms and conditions represent: i) at inception - a purchased put option on the Company’s Class A common shares and, ii) upon delivery of an advance notice - a forward contract on the Company’s Class A common shares. Neither the purchased put option nor the forward contract qualify for equity classification.
As a result of the above classification the settlement of forward contracts initiated by the Company were recorded as other SEPA financial income (expense), net.

Media revenues decreased by $2,074, or 99%, from $2,086 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, to $12 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease is mainly explained by the early termination of LNPB agreements. During the next months of 2024, Media revenues are expected to increase compared to the first three months of 2024 based on a Service Supply Agreement entered by the Company with a related party: Everli S.p.A. (entity owned by Micrmobility.com CEO). In detail, the mentioned Service Supply Agreement requires the Company to provide design, development, and communication ideas and activities to Everli.

Mobility Cost of revenues
Mobility cost of revenues shows a decrease of $3,830 or 83% mainly driven by the closing of multiple locations in Italy and United States, in line with the Company’s strategy to decrease the operating cash used by the micro-mobility business. Removing the depreciation and write-off, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 shows a Mobility Cost of Revenues lower than Mobility Revenues, this result is in line with the Company strategy to focus Mobility activities only in profitable markets.
Media Cost of revenues
Cost of Revenues related to Media decreased by $5,609, or 100% in the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease is mainly driven by the decrease in media content acquired during the period, including the early termination of LNPB agreements.

Interest expenses decreased by $837, or 49%, from $1,701 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, to $864 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Such decrease is mainly driven by the overall decrease of the Company’s financial liabilities.
Gain (loss) on extinguishment of financial debts
Gain on extinguishment of debt amounted to $728 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 is related to an Amendment Agreement entered by the Company with the holder of an unsecured Note previously issued by Wheels Lab Inc (entity acquired in 2022). In detail, the Company settled $734 of the aforementioned Unsecured Note by issuing 928,942 Class A Common Stock in March 2024, for the reduction of the Company’s share price from the Amendment date to the issuance date the Company recorded a gain amounted to $728.

Key Financial Measures and Indicators
Quarterly Active Platform Users. We define QAPUs as the number of unique users who completed a ride on our platform at least once in three months. While a unique user can use multiple product offerings on our platform in a given quarter, that unique user is counted as only one QAPU. We use QAPUs to assess the adoption of our platform and frequency of transactions, which are key factors in our penetration of the markets in which we operate.
Trips. We define Trips as the number of completed rides in a given year. To further clarify, a single-use Helbiz ride is recognized as a unique “Trip” upon completion of each ride. We believe that Trips is a useful metric to measure the usage of our platform.

Active Markets. We track the number of active markets (cities).
Italian licenses
We are an operator in Italy in the micro-mobility environment. During the first three months of 2024, we provided e-mobility services in the following Italian cities:
• Turin, Parma, Palermo, Pisa, San Benedetto del Tronto, Modena, and Catania.
United States licenses
During the first three months of 2024, we provided e-mobility services, either sharing or long-term rental proposal, in the following United States areas:
• Tampa (Florida), New York (New York), and Santa Monica (California).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily with proceeds from outside sources of invested capital. We have had, and expect that we will continue to have, an ongoing need to raise additional cash from outside sources to fund our operations and expand our business. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. Successful transition to attaining profitable operations depends upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our cost structure.
As of March 31, 2024, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents of $127.
We plan to continue to fund our operations and expansion plan, including the new business lines through debt and equity financing, for the next twelve months.
We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth and expanded operations, including the new business lines. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
LNPB Commitment
During 2021, the Company decided to enter into a new business line: the acquisition, commercialization and distribution of contents including live sport events to media partners and final viewers. In order to commercialize and broadcast media contents, the Company entered into non-cancellable Content licensing and Service agreements with multiple partners such as LNPB. In June 2023, the Company received communications from LNPB, the main live content provider, notifying that it was terminating early the agreements related to the commercialization and broadcast of the LNPB contents. The communications also requested the immediate payment of the invoices overdue amounting to $11,394. In February 2024, the Company entered into a Settlement agreement with LNPB. In detail, the main amended term was the full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the original agreements in exchange of a payment of $5,392, divided in three payments on or prior November 30, 2024, half of the amount has been paid in March 2024. As a result of the early termination of LNPB agreements, Helbiz Media significantly reduced its operations. Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 includes the full amount requested by LNPB minus the amount paid, the potential gain will be reflected only when the final payment will be made in line with the Settlement Agreement.
Litigation
The Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory matters, indirect tax examinations or government inquiries and investigations that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these matters include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages.
The Company records a liability when the Company believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss in the consolidated financial statements. The Company reviews the developments in contingencies that could affect the amount of the provisions that have been previously recorded. The Company adjusts provisions and changes to disclosures accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of any potential losses and many of the legal proceedings are early in the discovery stage and unresolved.
As of December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company concluded that certain losses on litigation were probable and reasonable estimable; as a result, the Company recorded as Accruals for legal contingencies, included in Other Current liabilities; $5,968 and $3,978, respectively.
The Company recorded $2,000 and $0 on the Condensed Consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively; included in General & Administrative expenses for additional contingency losses over litigations reasonably estimated and categorized as probable.
| 21 |
As of March 31, 2024, legal contingencies related to Wheels amounted to $1,555 while $4,413 are related to micromobility.com. In detail, Wheels has been named in various lawsuits related to the use of Wheels’s vehicles in US cities and in certain matters involving California Labor Code violations and the classification of individuals as independent contractors rather than employees. micromobility.com claims are related to previous investors who claimed financial losses for breaching contractual obligations.
The range of loss for the Company’s legal contingencies accrued is between $800 to $10,173 which represents the range between the amount already settled with the counterparts and the amount claimed deducting insurance coverage.
The Company is also involved in certain claims where the losses are not considered to be reasonably estimable or possible; for these claims the range of potential loss is between 0 to $3,050.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, costs and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Business Combinations
We account for acquisitions of entities or asset groups that qualify as businesses using the acquisition method of accounting. In detail, the acquisition method required that the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.
Emerging Growth Company Status
Under the JOBS Act, an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different transition dates for public and private companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We meet the definition of an emerging growth company and have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company, or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our consolidated financial statements and the reported results of operations contained therein may not be directly comparable to those of other public companies.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Helbiz did not have, during the periods presented, and it does not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Based on such evaluation, due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of such date to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Material Weakness
Our management’s conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective was due to the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the preparation of our Financial Statements. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting:
| · | We have insufficiently designed and operating controls surrounding the accounting policies and controls, including standardized reconciliation schedules to ensure the company's books and records are maintained in accordance with GAAP. | |
| · | Due to the company's size and nature, segregation of all duties may not be possible and may not be economically feasible. |
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated cash flows as of and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, we expect to make changes to our internal control over financial reporting in the future to remediate the material weakness identified above

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, and we may continue to be involved in such legal proceedings. Currently, there are several product liability claims against us none of which[, other than as discussed below,] is material by itself. If several of these claims were to be decided against our interest or if our product liability insurance were not to cover several of these claims, we might need to divert resources from our operations to pay for such claims, and our results of operations would be correspondingly affected.
We have estimated the range of loss for the legal contingencies accrued as between $0.8 million to $10.2 million which represents the range between the amount already settled with the counterparts and the amount claimed deducting insurance coverage. We are also involved in certain claims where the losses are not considered to be reasonably estimable or possible; for these claims the range of potential loss is between 0 to $3,050.
As of March 31, 2024, we concluded that certain losses on litigations were probable and reasonable estimable. As a result, we recorded an aggregate of approximately $5,968 in our unaudited interim financial statement for the period ended March 31, 2024 as “Accruals” for legal contingencies.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Although as a Smaller Reporting Company we are not required to provide this information, we refer you to the sections of our annual report on Form 10-K filed on April 16, 2024 and our registration statement on Form S-3 entitled “Risk Factors”. In addition to the risk factors contained in those documents and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission available on its Edgar filing website, we would like to draw your attention to the following risks:
We have hyper-diluted our shareholders’ ownership position, and we may continue to do so.
We operate at a loss and have needed to raise capital to continue to fund operations. Many of these capital raises have been in the form of equity offerings, including hybrid offerings such as debt that is convertible into shares of our common stock. Each such equity raise diluted the economic ownership and voting power of our shareholders of Common Stock prior to such raise. In the aggregate these equity raises were the primary reason that the total outstanding shares of our common stock increased from approximately 4,069 at December 31, 2021 to 45,185,172 at May 17, 2024.
We will need to obtain additional equity financing to fund our operations. These financings may take the form of capital raises or the retirement of outstanding debt, including to related parties, for equity issuances. Such financings, if any, may be on terms that continue to result in significant dilution to shareholders, in per share value and/or voting power, or that result in shareholders losing all of their investment in the Company. Such financings may be at prices substantially below our per share price or our per share net tangible book value.
The market price of shares of our Common Stock has dropped dramatically and may continue to do so.
The market value of a share of our Common Stock has dropped dramatically. By way of example, when we conducted our business combination and ceased to be a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation in August 2021, each share of Class Common Stock had a value of approximately $75,000 per share. As of May 14, 2024, the closing price for a share of our Common Stock was approximately $0.015 per share. This dramatic decrease in in the per share price of our common stock is due to multiple factors including the hyper dilution of our Common Stock, our inability to increase our revenues as anticipated or to operate at a profit, our inability to execute our business plan as envisioned and a negative market perception of the operation and viability of our enterprise. If the per share price of our Common Stock further deteriorates, the value of any investment you have made, or may make, in our Company will correspondingly decline.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
There have been no sales of unregistered equity securities that we have not previously disclosed in filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
