                                    Overview


VIVIC CORP. ("VIVC") is a corporation established under the corporation laws in the State of Nevada on February 16, 2017. Starting December 27, 2018, associated with the change of management, we expanded our business operations to include new types of marine tourism. In addition, we started making efforts to enter into the businesses of constructing marinas and constructing yachts in the mainland China under the brand of Monte Fino. Monte Fino is a famous yacht brand owned by Taiwan Kha Shing Yacht Company, one of the leading yacht manufacturers in the world.

It has also developed and operates "Joy Wave", an online yacht rental and leisure service business in Guangzhou, China. In the mainland China and Taiwan, primarily through the Internet, we provide third-party yacht and marine tourism services. This marine tourism involves high quality coastal tourism attractions in Taiwan and China including Hainan, Guangdong, Xiamen, and Quanzhou.

In the field of marine tourism, the number of yachts that can be rented has been increased through a yacht-sharing program system, which can provide services for more customers.

We also started to develop energy-saving yacht engines. Because it has advanced technology, it can achieve up to 50% energy efficiency. This energy-saving and innovative technology may be applied to new energy-saving engines for yachts. This innovative technology may bring favorable changes to the yachting industry and promote a low-carbon tourism for global environmental protection.







                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Our business has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic with the authorities implementation of various preventive measures including, but not limited to, travel bans and restrictions, mandatory quarantine requirements, limited business activities and operations, and shelter-in-place orders. These measures have led to, and are continuing to lead to, business slowdowns or shutdowns worldwide. The global economy and financial markets have been adversely influenced as well. Considering the features of our business in the tourism and recreation industries, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a reduction in the demand for recreational trips and activities. Our business has been experiencing the downturn with the COVID-19 pandemic. It is expected that our business will be resumed, at least, after the abolition of the travel restrictions and mandatory quarantine requirements.





RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recover ability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

We generated net revenues of $1,058 and $3,011 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in net revenues was primarily because the revenue deriving from consulting services rendered on sales and marketing of yachts decreased.

The gross profits were $108 and $3,011 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The falling gross profit in 2021 was essentially caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which unfavorably influenced our consulting service fee on sales and marketing of yachts.

three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was primarily due to the investment gain(loss) in long-term investment. Loss on loan settlement was $2,000 and $661,132 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

In addition, with respect to the ongoing and evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, which was designated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, the outbreak has caused substantial disruption in international economies and global trades and if repercussions of the outbreak are prolonged, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's business.

Going Concern


The independent auditors' report accompanying our financial statements contain a note expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we have not established a recurring source of revenue to sufficiently cover its operating costs in the next twelve months. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and implement business and expansion plans. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recover ability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Our management believes that the current actions to obtain additional funding and implement our strategic plans provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that additional funds will be available when needed from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.

Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next six months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) developmental expenses associated with business and (ii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long- term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.





MATERIAL COMMITMENTS


As of the date of this Report, we do not have any material commitments.

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
