PART I
| ITEM 1. | BUSINESS. |
Tribal Rides International Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”, “we”, or “us”), was incorporated on May 19, 2014 as “Trimax Consulting, Inc.” On May 8, 2017, we changed our name to “Xinda International Corp.”
From incorporation through January 2020, we were principally engaged in the business of marketing an array of property tax lien services including (a) identifying property tax lien auctions and property tax liens for sale; (b) providing valuation services with regards to real property subject to property tax liens; and (c) providing consultative and advisory services to property tax lien investors in regards to purchasing property tax liens, servicing property tax liens and adjudicating property tax liens.
On January 18, 2020, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Tribal Rides, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Tribal Rides”), pursuant to which we purchased certain assets of Tribal Rides in exchange for the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. On February 24, 2021, we changed our name to “Tribal Rides International Corp.”
After the asset purchase, we are now engaged in a business that is in the research and development stage of disrupting current ride-sharing paradigms. We are a transportation technology company creating the future of personal mobility with a unique, patented focus on autonomous vehicles. We believe that the mobility ecosystem and marketplace we are creating, based upon our innovative patent and patent-pending technologies, will enable us to address current ridesharing demands and those of the rapidly emerging autonomous vehicle personal mobility market. We are focused on having a significant impact in the emerging self-driving car marketplace.1
Our Principal Products or Services and Markets
We have and plan on improving a cloud-based Systems as a Solution (“SaaS”) interface for a comprehensive social network and mobile app. Our planned E-commerce module will enable users to create and manage their own highly personalized transportation experience; to form and/or join groups; collaborate on cost-saving strategies; find, schedule, obtain transportation services from within the groups in which they belong, and easily and securely conduct financial transactions.
Further development of our SaaS interface and mobile app and the required marketing and distribution will require additional capital which we are in the process of raising.
We believe that the approximately ten to fourteen million shared-ride drivers in the United States are possible customers for our SaaS services and software and they too may be able to move forward with the autonomous vehicles and their expanded scope of services.
Autonomous Driving Vehicle Global Market:
Autonomous vehicles are slowly gaining market share. While in 2019, there were some 31 million vehicles with at least some level of automation in operation worldwide, that number is expected to surpass 54 million in 2024. Correspondingly, the global autonomous car market is projected to grow as well. Although the market shrank by around 3% in 2020 due to the economic slowdown caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is forecast that between 2020 and 2024, the market will grow by almost 60%.2
Some estimate that the autonomous vehicle industry is expected to generate global revenue of $173 billion in the next three years and autonomous ride-sharing is widely seen as the next big step for the industry. The development of autonomous vehicles is set to generate global revenue of $173 billion dollars by 2024 with the ride-sharing market playing a primary role in the development and marketing of the technology.3 The industry is forecasted to be $2.195 billion in 2030.

Shared-Ride and Taxi Market (UBER/Lyft/Didi, etc.) (Domestic)
| · | $117 billion forecasted for 2021. | |
| · | $220 billion forecasted by 2025; CAGR of 20.2%. | |
| · | Smartphone penetration into the market is the key to industry businesses’ success. | |
| · | A quarter of the U.S. population uses ride-sharing for transport at least once a month. | |
| · | There are great differences between drivers in different segments of the industry. |
Shared-Ride and Taxi Market (UBER/Lyft/Didi, etc.) (International)
| · | The global ride share market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 16.6% during the forecast period, from an estimated $85.8 billion in 2021 to $185.1 billion by 2026. Ride sharing services were the most preferred services before the pandemic, as they offered a convenient and cost-effective means of personal mobility with the help of a transportation network system. | |
| · | The autonomous vehicle market is projected to be approximately 15+ times that of the Shared-Ride and Taxi Market by 2030.45 |
Environmental, Social and Governance
The world’s cities are expanding with a resulting suburban daily automobile commute that is un-scalable and over-crowding infrastructure. The average commuter spends nearly as much annually on vehicles, their maintenance and fuel as they do on housing. We believe that this is proving to be unsustainable both fiscally and environmentally.
While electric vehicles reduce some of the environmental burden, they do not improve our clogged roadways nor greatly reduce the cost burden of vehicle ownership. We believe the emergence of self-driving cars enhanced by our Mobility as a Service (“MAAS”) platform will bring another wave of societal and environmental transformation, making carpooling safer, optimized and convenient resulting in fewer vehicles on the road, and a corresponding reduction in congestion and damaging emissions. Furthering this benefit, we believe that our patented “Anticipatory Deployment” algorithms will help anticipate demand and may deploy cars in a more optimized and efficient manner than current methods.
We also believe that creating, developing and rewarding a cooperative community of users, developers and vendors through ownership stock grants will inspire loyalty to our platform, create a priority of use and commitment, and will provide for financial advancement while reducing the costs of vehicle use and ownership.
Distribution
We plan on further developing our cloud-based SaaS shared-ride application and interface for a comprehensive social network and mobile app for both Drivers and Riders.
We are currently reviewing and revising our plans for the Driver and Rider applications.

Marketing
We are currently reviewing and revising our sales and marketing plans for 2024.
Status of Our Publicly Announced Products or Services
Our SaaS interface is in review.
Competition
Although we believe that our disruptive technology and ecosystem have many unique capabilities, we will be competing with the current shared-ride provider community, both domestically and internationally including: Uber, Lyft, Wingz, Gett, Getaround, BlaBlaCar, RelayRides, Ridejoy, and Justsharelt.
Intellectual Property
We have patented and patent pending technologies with a focus on artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning with optimization and Smart Deployment algorithms. It involves anticipating demand for passengers and dispatching cars in advance – to reduce wait-time, increasing utilization of vehicles, and decrease cost. It includes new and efficient system for tracking and charging customers with preferred rates, supply and demand rates, and “specific” community engagement. Our technology may also be subject to protection by other intellectual property laws including copyright and trade secret.
We currently own the following patents and pending applications:
| · |
U.S. Patent 9,984,574, issued May 29, 2018, claims priority to provisional application filed on Jan. 21, 2014. U.S. Patent 11,217,101, issued January 4, 2022, claims priority to provisional application filed on Jan. 21, 2014. |
Government Regulation and Effects on Our Business
Once we have developed our products and services, we plan on operating in a particularly complex legal and regulatory environment. Our business will be subject to a variety of U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules, and regulations, including those related to Internet activities, privacy, cybersecurity, data protection, intellectual property, competition, consumer protection, payments, labor and employment, transportation services, transportation network companies, licensing regulations and taxation.

____________________
(1) The first trade of our Common Stock did not occur until January 1, 2021.
Our common stock is considered to be penny stock under rules promulgated by the SEC. Under these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in these securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes risks associated with these stocks, broker-dealers’ duties, customers’ rights and remedies, market and other information, and make suitability determinations approving the customers for these stock transactions based on financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing, provide monthly account statements to customers, and obtain specific written consent of each customer. With these restrictions, the likely effect of designation as a penny stock is to decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market for the stock, to decrease the liquidity of the stock and increase the transaction cost of sales and purchases of these stocks compared to other securities.
Holders
As of the close of business on April 17, 2024, we had approximately 26 holders of our common stock. The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies. We have appointed Olde Monmouth Stock Transfer Co Inc., 200 Memorial Parkway, Atlantic Highlands, NJ 07716, to act as transfer agent for the common stock.
Dividends
We have never declared a cash dividend on our common stock and our Board of Directors does not anticipate that we will pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, restrictions contained in our agreements and other factors which our Board of Directors deems relevant.

2020 Stock Incentive Plan
Effective June 20, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the Plan. The purposes of the Plan are (a) to enhance our ability to attract and retain the services of qualified employees, officers, directors, consultants, and other service providers upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts the successful conduct and development of our business largely depends, and (b) to provide additional incentives to such persons or entities to devote their utmost effort and skill to the advancement and betterment of our company, by providing them an opportunity to participate in the ownership of our Company and thereby have an interest in the success and increased value of our Company.
The Plan is administered by our board of directors; however, the board of directors may designate administration of the Plan to a committee consisting of at least two independent directors. Only employees of our Company or of an “Affiliated Company”, as defined in the Plan, (including members of the board of directors if they are employees of our Company or of an Affiliated Company) are eligible to receive incentive stock options under the Plan. Employees of our Company or of an Affiliated Company, members of the board of directors (whether or not employed by our company or an Affiliated Company), and “Service Providers”, as defined in the Plan, are eligible to receive non-qualified options, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights under the Plan. All awards are subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
No option awards may be exercisable more than ten years after the date it is granted. In the event of termination of employment for cause, the options terminate on the date of employment is terminated. In the event of termination of employment for disability or death, the optionee or administrator of optionee’s estate or transferee has six months following the date of termination to exercise options received at the time of disability or death. In the event of termination for any other reason other than for cause, disability or death, the optionee has 30 days to exercise his or her options.
| 6 |
The Plan will continue in effect until all the stock available for grant or issuance has been acquired through exercise of options or grants of shares, or until ten years after its adoption, whichever is earlier. Awards under the Plan may also be accelerated in the event of certain corporate transactions such as a merger or consolidation or the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all our assets.
There are 2,500,000 shares authorized for issuance under the Plan.
As of December 31, 2022, the Board had granted options to purchase 300,000 shares Common Stock under the Plan.
Stock Options
We have issued options to purchase 300,000 shares of our common stock, as described herein.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On November 11, 2022, we issued 500,000 shares each to Don Smith, our CFO, and Steve Ritacco, our CIO, pursuant to the terms of their employment agreements. The total of 1,000,000 shares, which became vested on July 1, 2022, were valued at $300,000 or $0.30 per share which was the value of our stock on their date of grant.
On January 5, 2023, we entered into a Private Placement Subscription Agreement (“PPM”) with a third party (the “Subscriber”) under which the Subscriber agreed to purchase 250,000 units with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase one additional share. The consideration received was $25,000. The warrants are exercisable immediately at $0.10 per share, which was the fair market value of our common stock on the date of the agreement and expire in three years from the date of issuance. In allocating the proceeds of the PPM between the common stock and the warrant, we valued the warrant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recorded the resulting amount of $12,500 as an increase to additional paid-in capital. The shares were issued in April 2023.
On April 13, 2023, we entered into a Private Placement Subscription Agreement (“PPM”) with a third party (the “Subscriber”) under which the Subscriber agreed to purchase 1,000,000 units with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The following discussions are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Going Concern Considerations
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of our Company as a going concern. We currently have no revenues, have incurred net losses, and have an accumulated deficit of $2,693,747 as of December 31, 2023. The continuation of our Company as a going concern
is dependent upon our ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from any future business we may acquire. There are no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining sufficient capital to continue as a going concern. If our working capital needs are not met and we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Intellectual Property
We have patented technologies with a focus on artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning with optimization and Smart Deployment algorithms. It involves anticipating demand for passengers and dispatching cars in advance to reduce wait-time, increasing utilization of vehicles, and decreasing cost. It includes a new and efficient system for tracking and charging customers with preferred rates, supply and demand rates, and “specific” community engagement.
Patent expenses, consisting mainly of patent filing fees, have been capitalized and are shown as an asset on our balance sheet. We amortize our patent assets over the remaining life of the patent, which is approximately 10 years.
Long-lived Assets
We follow ASC 360-10-15-3, Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets, which established a “primary asset” approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used. Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Common Stock Issued for Services
Our accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, codified into ASC 505 Equity. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement at various performance completion dates, and for unvested instruments, at each reporting date. Compensation expense, once recorded, may not be reversed.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position and result of operations.
Trends and Uncertainties
Demand for our products is dependent on general economic conditions, which are cyclical in nature. Because a major portion of our activities are the receipt of revenues from our services and products, our business operations may be adversely affected by competitors and prolonged recessionary periods.
There are no other known trends, events or uncertainties that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity. Sources of liquidity will come from the sale of our products and services. There are no material commitments for capital expenditure at this time. There are no trends, events or uncertainties that have had or are reasonably expected to have a material impact on the net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations. There are no significant elements of income or loss that do not arise from the registrant’s continuing operations. There are no other known causes for any material changes from period to period in one or more line items of our financial statements.
Impact of COVID-19
During the year 2021, the effects of a new coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and related actions to attempt to control its spread began to impact our business. The impact of COVID-19 on our operating results for the year ended December 31, 2021 was limited, in all material respects, due to the government mandated numerous measures, including closures of businesses, limitations on movements of individuals and goods, and the imposition of other restrictive measures, in its efforts to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 within the country.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 as a global pandemic. Governments around the world have mandated, and continue to introduce, orders to slow the transmission of the virus, including but not limited to shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, significant restrictions on travel, as well as work restrictions that prohibit many employees from going to work. Uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of the pandemic has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets.
Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022
For both years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, we had no revenues.
Our operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 were $185,914 compared to $1,098,690 for the year ended December 31, 2022. In 2023, the expenses are related to normal operating practices. In 2022, we incurred an expense of $600,000 for common stock issued and issuable to our Chief Financial and Chief Information Officers in connection with the terms of their amended employment agreements. In 2022, we also incurred an expense of $334,000 related to the investor relations agreement with SRAX, Inc. as described in Note 9 to the accompanying financial statements. Also in 2022, we recorded a $20,000 expense paid to a firm to provide DTC eligibility services to our Company. Finally in 2022, our professional fees include an expense of $42,000 for our Chief Financial Officer hired in November 2021. This cost was partially offset by a reduction of $26,535 in our accounting fees.
| 10 |
Our other income/expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 totaled net expenses of $392,823 The 2022 period included debt discount amortization of $208,287 related to the convertible promissory note described in Note 6 to the accompanying financial statements. The 2022 period also included interest expense of $34,931. Finally, in 2022 we recorded a net loss on extinguishment of debt of $149,605, mainly due to a $150,000 debt extinguishment cost resulting from a debt extension agreement for our convertible promissory note. In the 2021 period, we recorded a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $41,914 in connection with the repayment of a promissory note.
Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2023, of $185,918 ($0.01 per share) compares to a net loss of 1,491,513 ($0.04 per share) in the previous year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have previously raised capital through debt financing, advances from related parties and private placements of our common stock to meet operating needs. During the year ended December 31, 2023 the company was financed by Related Parties. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we issued a promissory note to a note holder and received $20,000 in proceeds. As of December 31, 2023, we have $NIL in cash, and we will need to raise additional funds to execute our current plan of operation. If we are unable to raise sufficient funds to execute our plan of operation, we intend to scale back our operations commensurately with the funds available to us. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.
We have no plant or significant equipment to sell, nor are we going to buy any plant or significant equipment during the next 12 months.
Balance Sheets
As of December 31, 2023, we had cash of $NIL and total assets of $1,789,157 compared with cash of $4,213 and total assets of $137,652 as of December 31, 2022. Our total liabilities increased in the 2023 period compared to 2022 by $316,295 due to increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities ($145,084), notes payable, net of debt discount ($103,075) and related party advances ($49,909).
During the year ended December 31, 2022 we issued or became obligated to issue shares of our common stock as follows: 2,000,000 shares to our CFO and CTO in accordance with the terms of their employment agreements, 24,000 shares in settlement of a promissory note, and 600,000 shares for the extension of the maturity date of our convertible note payable.
Cash Flows
During the year ended December 31, 2023, we used cash of $4,213 in our operating activities versus $154,504 in the comparable 2022 period. This use of cash in the 2023 period was caused by our net loss of $185,918 offset to some degree by the total non-cash items of shares issued for services, shares issued in accordance with terms of employment agreements, loss on extinguishment of debt, amortization of debt discount, and changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and deferred revenue. In the 2022 period, our net loss of $1,098,690 was offset mainly by non-cash items of shares issued for services and, gain on extinguishment of debt, amortization of debt discount, and changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Our investing activities used cash of $(9,424) and $85,444 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily related to costs incurred in the development of our digital transportation platform.
In the year ended December 31, 2023, we generated $(89,872) in financing activities from related party advances in the year ended December 31, 2022, we generated $122,680 in financing activities from the issuance of a note payable of $20,000 as well as proceeds from related party advances of $102,680.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity capital expenditures or capital resources.

Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Certain specified reduced reporting and other regulatory requirements that are available to public companies that are emerging growth companies include:
| 1. | an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; | |
| 2. | an exemption from the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until they would apply to private companies; | |
| 3. | an exemption from compliance with any new requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about our audit and our financial statements; and | |
| 4. | reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements. |
We have elected to take advantage of the exemption from the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until they apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to public companies required to adopt these new requirements.
| ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. |
As a “smaller reporting company,” we are not required to furnish information under this Item 7A.
| ITEM 8. | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. |
The financial statements and supplementary data required by this item are included following the signature page of this Annual Report.
| ITEM 9. | CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. |
None.
| ITEM 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, as such, is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Grimes who serves as our principal executive officer, and our Chief Financial Officer, Don Smith who serves as our principal accounting and financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Messrs. Grimes and Smith evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2023. Based on their evaluation, Messrs. Grimes and Smith concluded that, due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023. In light of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, we completed substantive procedures, including validating the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used for accounting prior to filing this Annual Report.
These additional procedures have allowed us to conclude that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s 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). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based upon Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).
During its evaluation, management noted certain matters involving internal control and its operation that we consider to be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses under standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.
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 the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We noted deficiencies involving lack of segregation of duties, lack of governance/oversight, and lack of internal control documentation that we believe to be material weaknesses.
Because of this material weaknesses, management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria described in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
Remediation of the Material Weakness
We are evaluating the material weaknesses and developing a plan of remediation to strengthen our overall internal control over financial reporting. The remediation plan will include the creation and adoption of a formal policy manual specifically dealing with financial controls.
We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment and we believe that these remediation efforts will represent significant improvements in our controls. Some of these steps will take time to be fully integrated and confirmed to be effective and sustainable. Additional controls may also be required over time. Until the remediation steps set forth above are fully implemented and tested, the material weakness described above will continue to exist.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, during our most recent fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
| 13 |
Important Considerations
The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

Legal Proceedings
During the past ten years there have been no events under any bankruptcy act, no criminal proceedings and no judgments, injunctions, orders or decrees material to the evaluation of the ability and integrity of any of our directors or executive officers, and none of these persons has been involved in any judicial or administrative proceedings resulting from involvement in mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity, any judicial or administrative proceedings based on violations of federal or state securities, commodities, banking or insurance laws or regulations, or any disciplinary sanctions or orders imposed by a stock, commodities or derivatives exchange or other self-regulatory organization.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships between any of our directors and executive officers.
Director Independence
We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be “independent” and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our Board of Directors comprised of a majority of “independent directors.”
We currently have not established any committees of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may designate from among its members an executive committee and one or more other committees in the future. We do not have a nominating committee or a nominating committee charter. Further, we do not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders. To date, other than as described above, no security holders have made any such recommendations. The entire Board of Directors performs all functions that would otherwise be performed by committees. Given the present size of our board it is not practical for us to have committees. If we are able to grow our business and increase our operations, we intend to expand the size of our board and allocate responsibilities accordingly.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the Commission reports regarding initial ownership and changes in ownership. Directors, executive officers, and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the Commission to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Joseph Grimes had an obligation to file a Form 4; however, the Form 3 was not timely filed. In addition, Joseph Grimes and Steven Ritacco each had obligations to file a Form 4; however, the Form 4s were not timely filed.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a Code of Ethics. We have had minimal operations or business and have not generated any revenues and have limited members of management, including one sole executive officer. Due to this, we feel that the adoption of a Code of Ethics would not serve the primary purpose of such a code to provide a manner of conduct as the development, execution and enforcement of such a code would be by the same persons and only persons to whom such code applied. At such time as we commence more significant business operations, the current officers and directors will recommend that such a code be adopted.

| (1) | Under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the number of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights.

We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be “independent” and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our Board of Directors comprised of a majority of “independent directors.” Although we have not adopted the independence standards any national securities exchange to determine the independence of directors, the NYSE MKT LLC provides that a person will be considered an independent director if he or she is not an officer of the company and is, in the view of our board of directors, free of any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment. Under this standard, our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Prasad and Ritacco would meet this standard, and therefore, would be considered to be independent.

Fees Paid
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal accountants for the audit of our annual financial statements, review of financial statements included in the quarterly reports and other fees that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $29,827 and $28,000 for the period ended December 31, 2021. There will be a fee of $6,500 for the 2023 audit.
Audit-Related Fees
There were no fees billed for assurance and related services by our principal accountants that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements, other than those reported above, for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Tax Fees
There were no fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal accountants for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning in the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

All Other Fees
There were no other fees billed for products or services provided by the principal accountants, other than those previously reported above, for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022.
Audit Committee
We do not have an Audit Committee; therefore, the Board of Directors has considered whether the non-audit services provided by our auditors to us are compatible with maintaining the independence of our auditors and concluded that the independence of our auditors is not compromised by the provision of such services. Our Board of Directors pre-approves all auditing services and permitted non-audit services, including the fees and terms of those services, to be performed for us by our independent auditor prior to engagement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
TRIBAL RIDES INTERNATIONAL, CORP.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Tribal Rides International Corp (the ‘Company’) as of December 31, 2023, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company suffered an accumulated deficit of $(2,851,996), net loss of $(185,918) and a negative working capital of $(846,618). These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regards to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. Communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Tribal Rides International Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements

Going Concern Matter

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| 1. | Organization and Business |
Organization and Business
We were incorporated on May 19, 2014 in the State of Nevada as Trimax Consulting, Inc. with an initial business plan of providing real estate consulting services and purchasing tax liens. On March 16, 2017, Newfield Global Holdings Limited acquired 25.0 million shares of our common stock representing 96.3% of our then outstanding shares. Upon election of a new Board of Directors and appointment of new management, we altered our business plan to provide end-to-end Human Resource services. On May 8, 2017, we filed an Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation changing our name to Xinda International Corp. On February 24, 2021, we filed an Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation changing our name to Tribal Rides International Corp. On February 23, 2022, we filed an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to change our ticker symbol. Until that change is made, our ticker symbol remains XNDA.
We are engaged in the business of digital transformation of transportation. The digital transportation enablement and enhancement platform provides fully automated dispatching and bookings management built for taxi companies, limousine companies and ride-sharing service providers. The platform gives customers an app-based experience and provides service providers a range of functions which include customer booking, accounts management, driver tracking, real-time notifications, auto dispatching algorithms, accounting and settlements, corporate account management as well as providing reporting and analytics. The platform has also shown to have a direct application in the B2B space in providing corporations with a more efficient taxi chit solution to combat fraud and excessive administration costs.
Although we have made progress on our platform, it is continuing to undergo beta testing while we await additional funding. We hope to launch the next phase of release during the year ending December 31, 2023. We have focused on expanding some of the transportation capabilities and bug fixing. One significant addition to the financial transaction capabilities of our platform is the successful registration and qualification for using the Paypal financial transaction features to supplement our current Stripe capabilities.
| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Our Company’s year-end is December 31.
Going Concern Considerations
The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which contemplate
continuation of our Company as a going concern. We currently have no revenues, have incurred net losses, and have an accumulated deficit
of $
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if our Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
| F-8 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all short-term
investments readily convertible to cash, without notice or penalty, with an initial maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.
Our cash balance was $ and $
Internal Use Software Development
We account for costs incurred to develop or purchase computer software for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40 “Internal-Use Software” or ASC 350-50 “Website Costs”. As required by ASC 350-40, we capitalize the costs incurred during the application development stage, which include costs to design the software configuration and interfaces, coding, installation, and testing.
Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage along with post-implementation stages of internal use computer software are expensed as incurred. Capitalized development costs, once placed into service, are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of five years, management’s estimate of the economic life. Costs incurred to maintain existing product offerings are expensed as incurred. Our software platform has not yet been placed into service. The capitalization and ongoing assessment of recoverability of development costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological and economic feasibility, and estimated economic life.
Intellectual Property
We have patented technologies with a focus on artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning with optimization and Smart Deployment algorithms. It involves anticipating demand for passengers and dispatching cars in advance – to reduce wait-time, increasing utilization of vehicles, and decrease cost. It includes new and efficient system for tracking and charging customers with preferred rates, supply and demand rates, and “specific” community engagement. Our technology may also be subject to protection by other intellectual property laws including copyright and trade secret.
Patent expenses, consisting mainly of patent filing fees, have been capitalized and are shown as an asset on our balance sheet. We amortize our patent assets over the remaining life of the Patent, which is approximately ten (10) years.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined 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 as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of our Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| Level 1 | — | Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |||
| Level 2 | — | Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable in the marketplace either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). | |||
| Level 3 | — | Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. |
| F-9 |
For assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Fair Value Hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are recognized and measured at fair value in the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 (level 3 inputs are not applicable):
| Fair Value Measurement Using | ||||||||
| Level 1 | Level 2 | |||||||
| Year ended December 31, 2023: | ||||||||
| Liabilities: | ||||||||
| Due to related parties – recognized at fair value (1) | $ | $ | ||||||
| Year ended December 31, 2022: | ||||||||
| Liabilities: | ||||||||
| Due to related parties – recognized at fair value (1) | $ | $ | ||||||
____________
| (1) |
During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3.
Financial risk factors
As our software platform has not yet been launched and we believe our activities do not yet expose us to any market, credit or liquidity risk.
Long-lived Assets
We follow ASC 360-10-15-3, Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets, which established a “primary asset” approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used. Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
Revenue Recognition
At our inception, we adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under this guidance, operating revenue is recognized at the time a good or service is transferred to a customer and the customer receives the service performed. Our revenue arrangements with customers are predominantly short-term in nature involving a single performance obligation related to the delivery of the service and generally provide for transfer of control at the time payment for the service is received.
We exclude from the measurement of the transaction price, if applicable, all taxes imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by us from a customer, including sales, use, excise, value-added, and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as sales taxes). Sales taxes which may be collected are not recognized as revenue but are included in accounts payable on the balance sheets as they would ultimately be remitted to governmental authorities. No such taxes have yet been charged or collected.
We have elected the practical expedient permitted in ASC 606-10-32-18, which allows an entity to recognize the promised amount of consideration without adjusting for the effects of a significant financing component if the contract has a duration of one year or less. Our revenue arrangements are short-term in nature and do not have significant financing components, therefore we have not adjusted consideration.
| F-10 |
Debt Issued with Common Stock/Warrants
Debt issued with common stock/warrants is accounted for under the guidelines established by ASC 470-20 – Accounting for Debt With Conversion or Other Options. We record the relative fair value of common stock and warrants related to the issuance of debt as a debt discount or premium. The discount or premium is subsequently amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the debt.
Our accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, codified into ASC 505 Equity. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement at various performance completion dates, and for unvested instruments, at each reporting date. Compensation expense, once recorded, may not be reversed.
Stock option grants are valued using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. The assumptions include the risk-free rate of interest, expected dividend yield, expected volatility, and the expected term of the award. The risk-free rate of interest was based on the U.S. Treasury bond rates appropriate for the expected term of the award. There are no expected dividends as we do not currently plan to pay dividends on our common stock. Expected stock price volatility was based on historical volatility levels of our common stock. The expected term is estimated by using the actual contractual term of the option grants and the expected length of time for the employees to exercise the options.
Stock awards issuable pursuant to employment agreements are valued at the fair market value of our stock at the date on which each award, or portion thereof, vests.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 - Income Taxes, which requires us to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carry forwards. Tax law and rate changes are reflected in income in the period such changes are enacted. We record a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We include interest and penalties related to income taxes, including unrecognized tax benefits, within the provision for income taxes.
We compute net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method.

Convertible Promissory Note
On November 10, 2021 (the
“Issue Date”), we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with a third party (the “Lender”),
for the purchase of a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $
In addition to the issuance of the Note, we were obligated to issue to the Lender, as a commitment fee, restricted shares of our common stock (the “Commitment Shares”). Along with the issuance of the Commitment Shares, we were required to issue to the Lender a warrant to purchase shares of our common stock (the “Warrant”). All or any part of the Warrant is immediately exercisable at $1.00 per share and expires three years from the Issue Date. The Warrants are subject to adjustments as provided in the warrant agreement. The Commitment Shares and Warrant were issued in February 2022.
| F-13 |
On May 22, 2022, pursuant
to our Company’s request, the Note was extended for six months until November 10, 2022. On November 22, we signed a Modification-Extension
of Maturity Date letter from the note holder extending the maturity date of the Note to
The Note is convertible only upon an event of default (as defined in the Note) and is then convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of the our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of 90% multiplied by the lowest trading price (i) during the previous 20 trading day period ending on the Issue Date, or (ii) during the previous 20 trading day period ending on the date of conversion of the Note (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to various adjustments, as specified in the Note. There has been no event of default to date.
While the Note is issued and outstanding, our Company is required at all times to have authorized and reserved five times the number of shares that are actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Note in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”). If, at any time we do not maintain or replenish the Reserved Amount within three business days of the request of the Lender, the principal amount of the Note will increase by $5,000 per occurrence. If we fail to maintain our status as “DTC Eligible” for any reason, or, if the Conversion Price is less than $0.01 at any time after the Issue Date, the principal amount of the Note will be increased by $5,000 and the Conversion Price will be redefined to mean 50% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined in the Note), subject to adjustments (which includes an adjustment for anti-dilutive issuances). The Note and the SPA also contain various restrictions and grant to the Lender various rights.
Upon an Event of Default, the Note will become immediately due and payable, and our Company will pay to the Lender the Default Sum (as defined in the Note) or the Default Amount (as defined in the Note).

Common Stock
We are authorized to issue shares of our $ par value common stock and each holder is entitled to one (1) vote on all matters subject to a vote of stockholders. We discovered an error whereby we previously reported our par value as $0.0001 per share. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, we evaluated the materiality of the error from qualitative and quantitative perspectives, and concluded that the error was immaterial to the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021 and Statement of Operations, Changes in Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit), and Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2021. We have corrected this error by making an out-of-period adjustment as of December 31, 2022, reducing Balance Sheet amounts for both Common Stock and Common Stock to be Issued, and increasing the Balance Sheet amount for Additional Paid-In Capital.
Common stock activity for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was as follows:

Under the Plan, the exercise price of a granted option shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant (110% of the fair market value in the case of a 10% stockholder).
