Note 1 – Organization, Description of Business and Going Concern
Nature of Organization
DriveItAway Holdings, Inc. (“DIA”, “the Company”, “we” or “us”) was formed in Delaware on March 8, 2006 as B2 Health, Inc. On July 2, 2010, the Company acquired BFK Franchise Company, LLC (“BFK”), a Nevada limited liability company, and concurrently changed its name to Creative Learning Corporation. On February 24, 2022, the Company acquired DriveItAway, Inc., and on March 18, 2022, disposed of BFK and its other subsidiaries involved in the learning business. On April 18, 2022, the name was changed to DriveItAway Holdings, Inc.
DIA is a national dealer focused mobility platform that enables car dealers to sell more vehicles in a seamless way through eCommerce, with its exclusive “Pay as You Go” app-based subscription program. DIA provides a comprehensive turnkey, solutions driven program with proprietary mobile technology and driver app, insurance coverages and training to get dealerships up and running quickly and profitably in emerging online sales opportunities. The company is planning to soon expand its easy and transparent consumer app ‘subscription to ownership’ platform to enable entry level consumers to drive and acquire new Electric Vehicles. For further information, please see www.driveitaway.com.
Going Concern
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of
the United States, applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal
course of business. During the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $
To continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company includes: sales of equity instruments; traditional financing, such as loans; and obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimum operating expenses. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this plan.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America. The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the Company’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented herein are adequate and not misleading, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2023, contained in the Company’s Form 10K, as filed on March 8, 2024.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DriveItAway Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary DriveItAway, Inc., collectively referred to as the “Company”. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions made by management include allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for deferred tax assets, and fair value of equity instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates as the current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currency translation is recognized in accordance with ASC 830. The Company’s functional currency is USD, therefore all amounts of revenues received from foreign accounts are translated to the Company’s functional currency (USD) upon receipt and thereby, translation gains and losses are recognized upon receipt.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents.
As of March 31, 2024, and September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $

Accounts Receivable
The
Company reviews accounts receivable periodically for collectability and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts and records bad
debt expense when deemed necessary. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on historical trends, customer
knowledge, any known disputes, and considers the aging of the accounts receivable balances combined with management’s estimate
of future potential recoverability. Accounts and receivables are written off against the allowance after all attempts to collect a receivable
have failed. The Company believes its allowances for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 are adequate, but actual write-offs could exceed the recorded allowance. As of March
31, 2024, and September 30, 2023 the balances in the allowance for doubtful accounts was $
Fixed Assets
Fixed
assets are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, currently seven (
Intangible Assets
Our intangible assets include website and software development costs. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of website and software development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental and deemed by management to be significant, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the website or software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. Amortization expense related to capitalized website and software development costs is included in operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.
Capitalized
development activities placed in service are amortized over the expected useful lives of those releases, currently estimated at three

Construction-in-progress primarily consists of website development costs that are capitalizable, but for which the associated applications have not been placed in service.
Leases
The Company’s operating lease portfolio for the period ended March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, includes the vehicle leases from third parties and the Company’s owned vehicles that are leased to the customers under operating leases. The contracts for these operating leases are short-term in nature with terms less than twelve (12) months. The Company has elected as an accounting policy not to apply the recognition requirements in ASC 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”) to short-term leases. The Company recognizes the lease payments for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not have leases that qualified as ROU assets.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which 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 that 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
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying amounts shown of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expense, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
All financial assets and liabilities are approximate to their fair value. Derivative liabilities are valued at Level 3.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for their derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” therefore
any embedded conversion options and warrants accounted for as derivatives are to be recorded at their fair values as of the inception
date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating,
non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative
instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified
as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the embedded conversion options and warrants. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for all periods presented. The Company, through its DriveItAway online/app-based platform (“platform”), operates in the automotive rental industry. The Company assists subprime and deep subprime candidates to rent/lease vehicles on a short-term basis, generally on a weekly or, in some cases monthly, basis under a Pay-As You-Go program. Through its platform the Company will track vehicle values and reduce vehicle pricing through the customers usage payments to show drivers a vehicle purchase price should they be interested in buying the vehicle, at which time the customer would procure financing if the Company determined they wanted to sell the vehicle at the listed purchase price.
During the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company derived its revenue from signed contracts for vehicle rentals between the Company, other leasing companies, or car dealerships and individual car rental customers (“customers”).
Customers book a vehicle through the Company’s platform, starting first with a rental contract with the vehicle. When the customer books the vehicle, per the terms of the individual rental agreements, the customer shall pay a stated rental rate, a stated insurance amount, an initial non-refundable fee, and, in some cases, a refundable deposit. At the end of the usage cycle, the system calculates miles driven and if the customer has driven more than the prorated, included amount, they pay extra usage/mileage fees. In instances when a customer pays late, they pay a late fee and in cases of incurring charges for tolls they pay for the toll costs incurred. Additionally, contracts may be extended (a new contract is signed) at which time the credit card on file for the customer will be charged at the beginning of the contract extension period for rental rate and insurance amount for the new extension period.
Vehicles available in the platform can be owned or leased by the Company or made available through arrangements with independent car dealerships (“dealerships”). For vehicles owned or leased by the Company, the Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide customers with a vehicle and an application to track vehicle rental arrangements. For vehicles made available through dealerships the Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide an application to track vehicle rental arrangements and to collect cash from customers and remit those amounts to dealerships net of the Company’s revenue share. The vehicle rental arrangements are over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes rental revenue ratably over the contract term. Costs related to rental revenue include depreciation for Company owned vehicles and monthly lease payments when the vehicles are leased from a leasing company. The amount of revenue transferred to dealerships is treated as contra-revenue because the Company acts as an agent in these transactions resulting in only the Company’s revenue share being recognized.
The Pay-As-You-Go program manages or includes insurance. Fleet insurance is sometimes provided where the Company has a fleet policy and the driver is added to it when needed. In this case, the driver pays the cost of insurance as a separate payment in the system. This payment is a type of revenue. The Company pays the insurance company providing the coverage. This is a cost of goods sold. The Company also allows for drivers to bring their own insurance. The Company works with associated insurance brokers to write a policy for the customer for that vehicle and a separate finance company that pays for the policy in full. The Company acts as trustee in collecting installments and transferring them to the finance company. Collected payments are treated as a revenue and transfers to the finance company are treated as contra-revenue because the Company acts as an agent in these transactions. Lastly, in markets where the Company cannot support this program, drivers are allowed to bring their own insurance and pay it directly themselves with no involvement of the Company. No revenue is collected or recognized in this instance. Because any insurance revenue is collected at contract inception and covers the fixed contract period the Company recognizes insurance revenue ratably over the contract term.

Initial
non-refundable fees are recognized when payment is received as the Company has no obligation to provide additional services at that point.
Miscellaneous charges for extra mileage, late fees, or toll charges calculated and charged to the customer credit card at the end of
the usage cycle are recognized when the credit card charge goes through. Refundable deposits are recorded on the balance sheet until
deposits are returned to customers or applied to their account for fees incurred. Deferred revenue includes rental and insurance amounts
that are paid for contracts that overlap a reporting date and relate to usages after that date. As of March
31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 refundable deposits were $
In addition to the costs associated with rental revenue and insurance revenue, within the Cost of Goods Sold account the Company also records credit card fees incurred from the cash collections and cash remittance process, as a significant portion of its performance obligation is to collect and remit payments through its credit card processors.
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all restricted stock awards and stock options. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured using the grant date fair value of our stock, as determined by the Board of Directors. The fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period. We have elected to recognize compensation expense for all options with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the entire option. The determination of fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model is affected by our stock value as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility and the risk-free interest rate.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
Advertising
and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred advertising and marketing costs for the six months ended
March 31, 2024 and 2023 of $
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes and deferred income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. On a periodic basis, the Company assesses the probability that its net deferred tax assets, if any, will be recovered. If after evaluating all of the positive and negative evidence, a conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be recovered, a valuation allowance is provided by a charge to tax expense to reserve the portion of the deferred tax assets which are not expected to be realized.
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares and potential shares outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible debt, preferred stock, warrants and stock option. For the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

All derivative liabilities recognized for the warrants issued were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement (see Note 8).

The conversion price equals the lowest trading price during either the 20 days trading days prior to the date of conversion or the 20 trading days prior to the date of issuance of the note (which was $0.14 per share). The conversion is subject to reduction in the following situations: (i) a 10% discount will apply anytime a conversion occurs when the company is not eligible to deliver the shares by DWAC; (ii) a 15% discount will apply whenever the shares are “chilled” for deposit into the DTC system; (iii) a 15% discount will apply if the Company’s common stock ceases to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; (iv) a 15% discount will apply if the note cannot be converted into free trading shares 181 days after its issue date; (v) in the event any other party has the right to convert debt into Common Stock at a greater discount to market than under the note, then the holder has the right to utilize such discount in determining the conversion price; or (vi) if the Company issues any shares of Common Stock for less than the conversion price in effect on the date of issuance, including any options, warrants or securities convertible into Common Stock at price less than the conversion price, then the conversion price shall be automatically reduced to the amount of consideration received by the company for such shares, except for any issuance that is an exempt issuance.

Note 8 – Derivative Liabilities
Certain features and instruments issued as part of the Company’s debt financing arrangements qualified for derivative accounting under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as the number of common shares that are to be issued under the arrangements are indeterminate, therefore the Company’s equity environment is tainted.
ASC 815 requires that we record the fair market value of the derivative liabilities at inception and at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item.
The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair values at inception and as of March 31, 2024. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes model during the six months ended March 31, 2024, and year ended September 30, 2023:

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased $22,307 from $67,000 for the period ending March 31, 2023, to $89,307 for the period ending March 31, 2024. This was due to a $28,155 increase in rental revenue and $15,272 increase in insurance revenue, offset by an increase of $21,120 in insurance lender payback costs.

We anticipate that, in 2024 automotive supply and demand will see a continuing return to more historically normal levels which should translate into greater vehicle availability for vehicles on our platform, leading to a further increase in revenues.
Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased $30,398, from $46,678 for the period ending March 31, 2023, to $77,076 for the period ending March 31, 2024. This was primarily due to DIA fleet payments which increased alongside an increase in revenue.
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased $89,285 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in salaries and payroll taxes of $7,875, professional fees of $61,007, software development of $1,276 and advertising and marketing expenses of $28,007, offset by an increase in general and administrative of $8,880.
Loss from operations was $118,494 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $199,688 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $81,194 was largely attributable to the change in operating expenses of $89,285 and an decrease in gross profit of $8,091.
Other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were $357,721, as compared to net other income of $380,309 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $738,030 is primarily attributable to increases in interest expense of $14,341, a change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $625,600, and in amortization of debt discount of $98,089.
For the six months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the six months ended March 31, 2023

Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2024, increased $70,727 from $115,083 for the period ending March 31, 2023, to $185,810 for the period ending March 31, 2024. This was due to a $97,985 increase in rental revenue and $24,486 increase in insurance revenue, offset by an increase of $51,743 in insurance lender payback costs.
We anticipate that, in 2024 automotive supply and demand will see a continuing return to more historically normal levels which should translate into greater vehicle availability for vehicles on our platform, leading to a further increase in revenues.
Cost of revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2024, increased $76,205, from $86,550 for the period ending March 31, 2023, to $162,755 for the period ending March 31, 2024. This was primarily due to DIA fleet payments which increased alongside an increase in revenue.
Operating expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2024, decreased $106,919 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in salaries and payroll taxes of $23,125, professional fees of $54,422, software development costs of $2,754 and advertising and marketing expenses of $36,382, offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses of $9,764.

Loss from operations was $313,680 for the six months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $415,121 for the six months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $101,441 was largely attributable to the decrease in professional fees of $54,422.
Other expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2024, were $877,964, as compared to $125,266 for the six months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of $752,698 is primarily attributable to increases in loss on change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $506,222, interest expense of $126,400, and in amortization of debt discount of $120,076.

For the six months ended March 31, 2023, net cash flows used in operating activities was $334,678, consisting of a net loss of $540,387, reduced by a loss on change in derivative liability of $3,196, stock-based compensation expenses of $15,000, amortization debt discount of $41,975, depreciation and amortization of $17,836, a change in operating assets and liabilities of $127,703.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not use or generate any cash from investing activities.
During the six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company used cash for the purchased two vehicles for $67,039 and website development costs of $5,833.

During the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company generated $357,222 from the issuance of convertible notes and $57,474 from the issuance of promissory notes which was partially offset by $59,988 for repayment of promissory notes and payment for debt issuance costs of $90,445.
During the six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company generated $285,000 from the issuance of convertible notes, $50,000 from the issuance of promissory notes - related parties, $12,500 from issuance of promissory notes which was partially offset by $1,648 for repayment of promissory notes and payment of debt issuance coasts of $23,500.
Going Concern
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $1,191,644, accumulated deficit of $4,502,540 and did not have sufficient cash on hand to cover expenses for the next twelve (12) months. The Company intends to convert its convertible debt into common stock and to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the ensuing twelve months.
The ability of our Company to emerge from the development stage is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue operations, and development of our business plan. In response to these requirements, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We believe our most critical accounting policies and estimates relate to the following:
| ● | Revenue Recognition | |
| ● | Stock-Based Compensation | |
| ● | Income Taxes | |
| ● | Financial Instruments | |
| ● | Derivative Financial Instruments |
While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for all periods presented. The Company, through its DriveItAway online/app-based platform (“platform”), operates in the automotive rental industry. The Company assists subprime and deep subprime candidates to rent/lease vehicles on a short-term basis, generally on a weekly or, in some cases monthly, basis under a Pay-As You-Go program. Through its platform the Company will track vehicle values and reduce vehicle pricing through the customers usage payments to show drivers a vehicle purchase price should they be interested in buying the vehicle, at which time the customer would procure financing if the Company determined they wanted to sell the vehicle at the listed purchase price.
During the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company derived its revenue from signed contracts for vehicle rentals between the Company, other leasing companies, or car dealerships and individual car rental customers (“customers”).
Customers book a vehicle through the Company’s platform, starting first with a rental contract with the vehicle. When the customer books the vehicle, per the terms of the individual rental agreements, the customer shall pay a stated rental rate, a stated insurance amount, an initial non-refundable fee, and, in some cases, a refundable deposit. At the end of the usage cycle, the system calculates miles driven and if the customer has driven more than the prorated, included amount, they pay extra usage/mileage fees. In instances when a customer pays late, they pay a late fee and in cases of incurring charges for tolls they pay for the toll costs incurred. Additionally, contracts may be extended (a new contract is signed) at which time the credit card on file for the customer will be charged at the beginning of the contract extension period for rental rate and insurance amount for the new extension period.
Vehicles available in the platform can be owned or leased by the Company or made available through arrangements with independent car dealerships (“dealerships”). For vehicles owned or leased by the Company, the Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide customers with a vehicle and an application to track vehicle rental arrangements. For vehicles made available through dealerships the Company’s performance obligation for rental revenue is to provide an application to track vehicle rental arrangements and to collect cash from customers and remit those amounts to dealerships net of the Company’s revenue share. The vehicle rental arrangements are over a fixed contracted period; therefore, the Company recognizes rental revenue ratably over the contract term. Costs related to rental revenue include depreciation for Company owned vehicles and monthly lease payments when the vehicles are leased from a leasing company. The amount of revenue transferred to dealerships is treated as contra-revenue because the Company acts as an agent in these transactions resulting in only the Company’s revenue share being recognized.
The Pay-As-You-Go program manages or includes insurance. Fleet insurance is sometimes provided where the Company has a fleet policy and the driver is added to it when needed. In this case, the driver pays the cost of insurance as a separate payment in the system. This payment is a type of revenue. The Company pays the insurance company providing the coverage. This is a cost of goods sold. The Company also allows for drivers to bring their own insurance. The Company works with associated insurance brokers to write a policy for the customer for that vehicle and a separate finance company that pays for the policy in full. The Company acts as trustee in collecting installments and transferring them to the finance company. Collected payments are treated as a revenue and transfers to the finance company are treated as contra-revenue because the Company acts as an agent in these transactions. Lastly, in markets where the Company cannot support this program, drivers are allowed to bring their own insurance and pay it directly themselves with no involvement of the Company. No revenue is collected or recognized in this instance. Because any insurance revenue is collected at contract inception and covers the fixed contract period the Company recognizes insurance revenue ratably over the contract term.
Initial non-refundable fees are recognized when payment is received as the Company has no obligation to provide additional services at that point. Miscellaneous charges for extra mileage, late fees, or toll charges calculated and charged to the customer credit card at the end of the usage cycle are recognized when the credit card charge goes through. Refundable deposits are recorded on the balance sheet until deposits are returned to customers or applied to their account for fees incurred. Deferred revenue includes rental and insurance amounts that are paid for contracts that overlap a reporting date and relate to usages after that date. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 refundable deposits were $1,339 and $2,234 and deferred revenue was $4,967 and $7,233, respectively.
5
In addition to the costs associated with rental revenue and insurance revenue, within the Cost of Goods Sold account the Company also records credit card fees incurred from the cash collections and cash remittance process, as a significant portion of its performance obligation is to collect and remit payments through its credit card processors.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all restricted stock awards and stock options. The fair value of restricted stock awards is measured using the grant date fair value of our stock, as determined by the Board of Directors. The fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period. We have elected to recognize compensation expense for all options with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the entire option. The determination of fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model is affected by our stock value as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility and the risk-free interest rate.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes and deferred income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. On a periodic basis, the Company assesses the probability that its net deferred tax assets, if any, will be recovered. If after evaluating all of the positive and negative evidence, a conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be recovered, a valuation allowance is provided by a charge to tax expense to reserve the portion of the deferred tax assets which are not expected to be realized.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which 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 that 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
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
6
The carrying amounts shown of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expense, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
All financial assets and liabilities are approximate to their fair value. Derivative liabilities are valued at Level 3.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for their derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” therefore
any embedded conversion options and warrants accounted for as derivatives are to be recorded at their fair values as of the inception
date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating,
non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative
instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified
as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the embedded conversion options and warrants. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time of our common stock, equal to the weighted average life of the options.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
| (a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that in light of the material weaknesses described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2024. See material weaknesses discussed below in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
| (b) | Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting |
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditure are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the 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 financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
As of March 31, 2024, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2024, due to the following identified material weaknesses:
| ● | Our control environment is inadequate. We have no risk assessment procedures, no formal information or communication process, and no monitoring activities in place. Additionally, we lack policies that require formal written approval for related party transactions. |
| ● | We have not established and/or maintained adequately designed internal controls in order to prevent or detect and correct material misstatements to the financial statements. We do not have controls in place to prevent individuals from manipulating financial data or entering inaccurate data into the accounting software, and there are no controls over the financial reporting close process. Additionally, we lack segregation of duties and review procedures to ensure our financial data is accurate. |
8
Management believes that despite our material weaknesses, our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.
| (c) | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting |
During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls
Management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are no resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls.
