Revenue Passes $6 million, Cash Position Strengthens and Operating Results Improve Due to Expense Reductions, Efficiency Gains, New Deals, and 132% Growth in B2B Sales

Company Continues to Explore Strategic Opportunities to Maximize Shareholder Value

DropCar, Inc. (Nasdaq: DCAR) (“DropCar” or the “Company”), a provider of last mile logistics technology, mobility services and cloud based software for both the automotive industry and consumers, today announced financial results and the filing of its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2018 and provided an update on the results of initiatives implemented in August 2018 while outlining a series of new business developments.

Spencer Richardson, DropCar’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We believe that between the significant improvements we have made to our operating business and overall cash position, we are well-positioned to continue aggressively exploring additional strategic opportunities to maximize shareholder value including, but not limited to, business combinations.”

"The fourth quarter of 2018 was a transformational period for our business, with benefits that have continued to proliferate into the first quarter of 2019. The transition of our consumer business (“B2C”) in August 2018, from a valet parking focused “Steve” subscription offering, to the significantly less labor intensive “Self-Park” model turned a major generator of losses into a gross margin accretive business for us in Q4. Moreover, advancements to our own logistics technology have enabled us to increase the efficiency and productivity of our ground operations across the board, enabling us to improve our margins for our business to business (“B2B”) operations as well,” Mr. Richardson added.

In addition to the Company’s expansion into Washington DC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New Jersey and Baltimore, fueled primarily by the Company’s partnership with General Motors’ Maven brand car sharing program, the Company:

(i) has recently added a major Tier-1 electric vehicle manufacturer to its B2B client base in multiple existing markets;

(ii) has recently expanded its footprint in the peer-to-peer car sharing space by adding Turo, one of the largest such peer-to-peer car sharing networks, to the DropCar Mobility Cloud logistics platform; and

(iii) is actively exploring synergies between the DropCar Mobility Cloud platform and autonomous vehicle solutions, as supported by the recent partnership with STEER-Technologies.

Mr. Richardson noted, “Beyond the new clients we have already recently onboarded, we are excited to continue advancing discussions with several other name brand automotive partners in the vehicle subscription, peer-to-peer and car sharing spaces to provide SaaS technology and/or DropCar managed services. This includes discussions with major fleet organizations serving clients across a variety of industries including: retail, e-hailing, ride-sharing, car rentals, as well as business and residential services.”

During the past few months, DropCar has also completed the following transactions to improve its liquidity as it continues working towards building top-line revenue and improving operating margins:

(i) the completion of the sale of the Company’s WPCS operations for $3.5 million in cash; and

(ii) the completion on March 28, 2019, of an offering of common stock at an offering price of $4.18 per share with gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million.

Financial Results for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2018

Revenue of B2B service for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 increased approximately $197,000, or 130%, to approximately $348,000 compared to approximately $151,000 for the same period in 2017. Revenue of our “Will” on-demand service for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 increased approximately $36,000, or 48%, to approximately $112,000 as compared to approximately $75,000 for the same period in 2017. While DropCar Operating’s “Steve” service was discontinued after August 2018, its “Self-Park” replacement generated approximately $665,000 in Q4 2018, bringing total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 to approximately $1,122,000 as compared to the approximately $1,488,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

DropCar Operating reduced negative gross margin by approximately $272,000 or 68%, from a gross loss of approximately $400,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 to $128,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. In addition, DropCar Operating reduced negative gross margin by approximately $58,000, or 31%, from a gross loss of approximately $185,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2017. DropCar Operating had its first month with positive gross margin of approximately $27,000 in December 2018.

The Company's approximately $6,570,000 net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 was comprised of approximately $2,715,000 net loss from continuing operations and a net loss of approximately $3,855,000 from the sale of the Company’s WPCS business in December 2018. This compared to a net loss of approximately $2,552,000 for the same period in 2017.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three-month period totaled approximately $6,634,000 due to the approximately $6,570,000 net loss and approximately $64,000 of deemed dividends on the exchange of warrants.

Financial Results for the year Ended December 31, 2018

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018 increased approximately $1,792,000, or 42%, to approximately $6,078,000 as compared to approximately $4,286,000 for the same period in 2017, as a result of (i) an increase of DropCar Operating B2B revenue of approximately $603,000, or 132%, due to the expansion of DropCar Operating’s operations to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington DC, New Jersey and Baltimore, as well as a change in the pricing structure, (ii) an increase in DropCar Operating consumer recurring “Steve” service and “Self-Park” space revenue of approximately $962,000 to $4,409,000, an increase of approximately 28% as compared to 2017 consumer recurring revenue of approximately $3,447,000, and (iii) an increase in DropCar Operating “Will” on-demand services of approximately $99,000, or 43%, as compared to 2017 “Will” service revenue of approximately $231,000.

The Company's approximate $18,749,000 net loss for the year ended December 31, 2018 was comprised of the approximately $14,895,000 net loss from continuing operations and a net loss of approximately $3,854,000 from the WPCS discontinued operations. This compared to a net loss of approximately $7,641,000 for the same period in 2017.

In addition, the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the 12-month period totaled approximately $20,149,000 due to the approximately $18,749,000 net loss and approximately $1,400,000 of deemed dividends on the exchange of warrants.

On March 29, 2019, the Company concluded that a non-cash adjustment related to the incorrect characterization of approximately $1,000,000 of non-cash expenses as equity in the first quarter of 2018 would require a restatement of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in each of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018, and September 30, 2018 (the “Quarterly Reports”). The adjustment, which has no impact on cash flows, impacts all future quarter cumulative earnings and, as such, the Company anticipates that it will file an amendment to each of the Quarterly Reports in order to amend and restate financial results for the affected periods as soon as practicable. The Company’s Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 already reflects this adjustment.
