Item 1. Business Introduction

Our Core Business

Before the year 2013, the Company had been mainly engaged in the design, production and distribution of the off-road vehicle products. Due to various market factors and the environment with positive government supports, starting from the year 2013, the Company gradually shifted its main focus towards the development on pure electric vehicles (which we refer to as “EVs” in this report). For the year ended December 31, 2014, the majority of the Company’s revenue and profit were generated from EV parts and EV products.

The Market for Electric Vehicles

Business Environment and Policy

Research and development of major EV technology projects in China began in 2001. Driven by two central government five-year plans for scientific and technological research as well as by the Olympics, World Expo and the “1000 cars in 10 cities” demonstration platform, the Chinese electric automobile sector was officially born, which brings a positive basis for EV business.

With the growing consumer demand for motor vehicles in China many cities are experiencing severe problems from environmental pollution. At the same time, with the lack of the efficient traffic planning, major Chinese cities are crippled by  traffic congestion. Thus, major cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, have begun to implement various policies restricting the purchase and usage of traditional cars. We expect that more cities will have no choices but to adopt similar policies in the future.

To improve the environment of the urban areas, the China Central Government, along with many municipalities, has been introducing numerous supporting policies that encouraged the usage and adoption of EVs, including subsidies, tax exemptions, special treatment of tag and license. Among these policies,  the most significant development involved the availability of subsidies from central and local government for the sale of EVs. The process of receiving government subsidies is as follows: manufacturers receive central government subsidies through application and sell the EVs to local dealers at a discounted price, reflecting the deduction of the central government subsidy from the normal sale price. Local dealers then establish their retail price based upon the prevailing purchase price from the manufacturers, then deduct the local government subsidy from the retail price before selling the EVs to consumers. Through these steps, consumers receive both subsidies from the central and local governments when they purchase EVs.

Because the central and local government subsidies are disclosed to the public and all the subsidies are reviewed and verified by the respective governments, consumers know what subsidies they will receive along with the price they expect to pay for EVs. Therefore, even though dealers can sell vehicles at prices established at their discretion, programs are designed to assure that consumers receive the entire benefit from both subsidies. This allows for full disclosure for consumers in the costs associated with purchasing EVs, along with the added benefits of the respective subsidies.

Issues confronting the market

Although the basis for the EV industry in China has already been established, the development of Chinese EV industry is still ongoing due to five major obstacles  towards  extensive commercialization of EVs and the full development of the EV market in China,  These obstacles include the comparatively higher cost of EVs, compared with traditional automobiles, the shorter driving range between battery charges, long charging times for standard EV batteries, the limited infrastructure of EV charging facilities, and EV battery attenuation and maintenance.

Our Solutions and Growth Strategy

To resolve these key market issues, given the economic and population growth in China, we believe there is an opportunity for a new business model. Kandi has been advocating, and through the Service Company, as defined below, implemented the “Micro Public Transportation” model, or MPT (the “EV-Share Program”), which provides a shared pure EV transportation platform that has not been previously afforded to urban residents. While it is less expensive than standard taxis. MPT is designed as a new business model for public transportation that maximizes the advantages of our existing EV products and technologies, and further stimulates the expansion of the EVs markets to urban communities. Since its inception, the “Micro Public Transportation” model has made impressive progress, and received great recognition and support from government officials, the end users, and our business partners throughout of China. In order to smoothly move the MPT concept forward, Kandi Electric Vehicles Group Co., Ltd., our 50/50 joint venture with Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd. ( the “JV Company”) participated in the establishing of Zhejiang ZuoZhongYou Electric Vehicle Service Co., Ltd. (the “Service Company”), of which the JV Company has a 19% of ownership interest. As of the end of 2014, the EV-Share Program had been launched, through the Service Company, in nine cities including Hangzhou, Shanghai, Chengdu, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Changzhou and Rugao.

Today, cities in China face four critical challenges in the traffic environment, including pollution, traffic congestion, insufficient parking space and growing scarcity of energy supplies, which are mainly the result of ever growing volume of gas-powered automobiles. One solution to solve these problems is to create cleaner and more affordable public transportation to urban residents. Currently, subway and bus transport are the most abundant public transportation options available. In this regard, the Company advocates the EV-Share Program to reduce the total number of private cars in use, which will improve environmental conditions, ease traffic congestion, alleviate parking availability, and reduce the reliance and use of fossil fuels.

Besides the zero-emission benefit, the EV-Share Program combines the advantages of city taxis, resident vehicular transport, rental cars and traditional mass transportation, along with the benefits of the availability of the vertical automatic charging/parking garage and the street-level service stations. It is a seamless transportation tool in all dimensions for urban public transportation, designed to greatly improve the efficiency of urban EV usage, while easing traffic congestion, allowing for greater parking resources. Additionally, it will likely to promote the fast adoption of the pure EVs among Chinese consumers as MPT enables consumers to rent pure EVs on a short-term hourly base or lease them on the long-term base, without concerns on the costs and issues associated with owning and maintaining EVs individually.

The EV-Share Program is supported by a network of charging/parking stations, which provides charging, maintenance and battery recycling facilities. The stations locate at airports, train stations, hotels, business centers, selected residential areas and other strategic locations close to city public transportation network . A centralized tracking system allows the service provider of EV-Share Program to keep a close watch at the status and precise location of each vehicle. In addition to the short-term rental and long term leasing options to consumers described above, the Service Company also offers long-term leasing options to large enterprises, government entities and residential communities so they can use pure EVs for extended periods of time (the “Long-term Leasing Program”). In 2014, we have greatly benefited from the success of various MPT initiatives in China, especially the short-term hourly rental and the Long-term Leasing Program.

Our Organizational Structure

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2004. The Company changed its name from Stone Mountain Resources, Inc. to Kandi Technologies, Corp. on August 13, 2007. On December 21, 2012, the Company changed its name to Kandi Technologies Group, Inc.

Headquartered in the Jinhua city, Zhejiang Province, China, the Company’s primary business operations are the design, development, manufacturing and commercialization of electric vehicles, electric vehicle parts and off-road vehicles, which are distributed in China and global markets. The Company conducts its primary business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Vehicles”) and the partial and wholly-owned subsidiaries of Kandi Vehicles. As part of its strategic objective to become a leader in EV market in China, the Company focuses on fuel efficient, pure EV parts manufacturing with a particular emphasis on expanding its market share in China.

The Company's organizational chart is as follows:

* The box with dotted-line border represents the entity that has ceased operation and was dissolved in July 2014.

Operating Subsidiaries:

Pursuant to relevant agreements executed in January 2011, Kandi Vehicles is entitled to 100% of the economic benefits, voting rights and residual interests (100% profits and loss absorption rate) of Jinhua Kandi New Energy Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“Kandi New Energy”). Kandi New Energy currently holds vehicle production rights (license) on manufacturing Kandi brand electric utility vehicles (”Special-purpose Vehicles”) and the production rights (license) on manufacturing battery packs used in Kandi brand EVs.

Jinhua Three Parties New Energy Vehicles Service Co., Ltd. (“Jinhua Service”) was formed as a joint venture, by and among our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kandi Vehicles, the State Grid Power Corporation and Tianneng Power International. The Company, indirectly through Kandi Vehicles, had a 30% ownership interest in Jinhua Service. As of September 30, 2014, Jinhua Service ceased its operations and was dissolved.

In April 2012, pursuant to a share exchange agreement, the Company acquired 100% of Yongkang Scrou Electric Co, Ltd. (“Yongkang Scrou”), a manufacturer of parts for automobile and electric vehicle, including EV drive motors, EV controllers, air conditioners and other electrical products.

As a part of our EV business strategy, we believe we need more production resources to timely and efficiently satisfy the market demands. In March 2013, pursuant to a joint venture agreement (the “JV Agreement”) entered into between Kandi Vehicles and Shanghai Maple Guorun Automobile Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Guorun”), a 99%-owned subsidiary of Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd. (“Geely”), the parties established Zhejiang Kandi Electric Vehicles Co., Ltd. (the “JV Company”) to develop, manufacture and sell EVs and related auto parts, and to invest in other companies with related or similar business. Each of Kandi Vehicles and Shanghai Guorun has a 50% ownership interest in the JV Company. In March 2014, the JV Company changed its name to Kandi Electric Vehicles Group Co., Ltd. At present, the JV Company is a holding company with products that are manufactured by its subsidiaries.

In March 2013, Kandi Vehicles formed Kandi Electric Vehicles (Changxing) Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Changxing”) in the Changxing (National) Economic and Technological Development Zone. Kandi Changxing is engaged in the production of EVs. In the fourth quarter of 2013, Kandi Vehicles entered into an ownership transfer agreement with JV Company pursuant to which Kandi Vehicles transferred 100% of its ownership in Kandi Changxing to the JV Company. The Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 50% economic interest in Kandi Changxing.

7

In April 2013, Kandi Electric Vehicles (Wanning) Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Wanning”) was formed in Wanning City of Hainan Province by Kandi Vehicles and Kandi New Energy. Kandi Vehicles has a 90% ownership in Kandi Wanning, and Kandi New Energy has the remaining 10% interest. However, by contract, Kandi Vehicles is, effectively, entitled to 100% of the economic benefits, voting rights and residual interests (100% profits and losses) of Kandi Wanning. Hainan Province is planned as an international tourism island by the Chinese government and there is a high possibility that all non-EV vehicles will be banned from use within the province. Therefore, the Company believes EV business has a great potential growth rate in Hainan province. To capture this opportunity, the Company signed an agreement with Wanning city government and invested a total of RMB 1 billion to develop a factory in Wanning with an annual production of 100,000 EVs. Currently, this project is expected to launch its trial production by 2015.

In July 2013, Zhejiang ZuoZhongYou Electric Vehicle Service Co., Ltd. (the “Service Company”) was formed. The Service Company is engaged in various pure EV leasing businesses including the EV-Share Program. The JV Company has a 19% ownership interest in the Service Company. The Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 9.5% economic interest in the Service Company.

In November 2013, Zhejiang Kandi Electric Vehicles Jinhua Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Jinhua”) was formed by the JV Company. The JV Company has 100% ownership interest in Kandi Jinhua, and the Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 50% economic interest in Kandi Jinhua. According to the terms of the JV Agreement, except the JV Company and its subsidiaries, Kandi Vehicle and its subsidiaries are not allowed to manufacture pure EVs. However, Kandi New Energy holds the production rights (license) on manufacturing of Special-purpose Vehicles. Therefore, it is necessary to establish Kandi Jinhua, which is in charge of the Special-purpose Vehicle business and entitles to use Kandi New Energy’s Special-purpose Vehicle production rights (license).

In November 2013, Zhejiang JiHeKang Electric Vehicle Sales Co., Ltd. (“JiHeKang”) was formed by the JV Company and is engaged in car sales business. The JV Company has 100% ownership interest in JiHeKang, and the Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 50% economic interest in JiHeKang.

In December 2013, the JV Company entered into an ownership transfer agreement with Shanghai Guorun pursuant to which the JV Company acquired 100% ownership of Kandi Electric Vehicles (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Shanghai”). As a result, Kandi Shanghai is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the JV Company, and the Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 50% economic interest in Kandi Shanghai.

In January 2014, Zhejiang Kandi Electric Vehicles Jiangsu Co., Ltd. (“Kandi Jiangsu”) was formed by the JV Company. The JV Company has 100% ownership interest in Kandi Jiangsu, and the Company, indirectly through its 50% ownership interest in the JV Company, has a 50% economic interest in Kandi Jiangsu.

Our Products

General

For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, our products include EV parts, EV products, and off-road vehicles including ATVs, utility vehicles (“UTVs”), go-karts, and others. According to our market research on consumer demand trends, we have adjusted our production line strategically and continued to develop and manufacture new EV products in an effort to meet market demands and better serve our customers.

EV Parts

During the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from the sale of EV parts were $116,431,310. We sold our EV parts mostly to the JV Company for manufacturing of the EV products. We started the EV parts business to the JV Company in the first quarter of 2014 and achieved significant growth during the year. Among the total EV parts sales to the JV Company for the year ended December 31, 2014, approximately 83% or the majority of the sales were related to the sales of battery packs. Due to  various Chinese auto industry  regulations, we hold the necessary production license to manufacture  battery packs to be exclusively used in the EVs manufactured by the JV Company under the Kandi brand. Approximately 6% of the sales were related to the sales of EV controllers. Approximately 5% of the sales were related to the sales of air conditioning units. Approximately 4% of the sales were related to the sales of EV drive motors, and the remaining 2% were related to the sales of body parts and other auto parts.

EV Products

We continued to sell EV products during the year of 2014. Our revenues from the sale of EV products for the fiscal year of 2014 were $33,978,619, a decrease of $12,640,584 or 27.1% from $46,619,203 for the year ended December 31, 2013, representing a 19.9% of reduction in unit sales. The decrease in the sales volume was due to a JV Agreement signed in 2013 which required us to gradually transfer our EVs production and distribution business to the JV Company.

Off-Road Vehicles

During the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from the sale of the off-road vehicles declined by $26,373,733, or 57.1%, to $19,819,078 from $46,192,811 for the year ended December 31, 2013, The decrease was primarily due to the rearrangement of our product portfolio for more efficient use of resources to capture more sales opportunities in the fast-growing EV market in China.

The following table shows the breakdown of Kandi's revenues from its customers by geographic markets:

Recent Development Activities

In November 2014, SMA7002BEV05, the first Mid-tier Luxury Pure Electric Vehicle developed by JV Company was approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China ("MIIT") according to No. 69 public announcement of MIIT. The SMA7002BEV05 model is among the latest vehicles on the lists of the approved vehicle products (“MITT” No. 266) and the recommended models for energy saving & new energy vehicle demonstration and promotion in China (“MITT” No. 63). As a result, purchasers of such EV will now be the ultimate beneficiaries to receive all levels of national and local subsidies and incentives. The approval of SMA7002BEV05 is an indication of our beginning to enter the field of the middle and high level pure vehicle products. We believe that our diversified products will meet the market's growing demands and secure our leading position in manufacturing pure electric vehicle products in China.

In December 2014, Kandi Vehicles signed a purchase contract with Zhejiang Tianneng Energy Technology Co, Ltd ("Tianneng Energy Technology") for a one-year supply of TNL-ITR18650-2200P lithium batteries starting in January 2015. Kandi Vehicle's purchase amount is committed to be no less than RMB 260 million or approximately $42.6 million in 2015. Management believes Tianneng Energy Technology's lithium battery is a great addition and will help Kandi to achieve a better performance for EVs.

As of the end of 2014, our EV-Share Program has been expanded to 9 cities including Hangzhou, Shanghai, Chengdu, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Changzhou, and Rugao. This program is an innovative business model aimed at promoting and popularizing the use of EVs in China. Since its inception, the program has generated significant public interest, and received key recognitions and endorsements from consumers as well as the government agencies. It also includes a variety of the Long-term Leasing Program, ideal for those companies, government entities and residential communities. As of the end of 2014, there had been a total of 14,398 Kandi EVs delivered to our customers. Leveraging the success of the EV-Share Program, Kandi has built a solid foundation to be recognized as the one of the leaders in the pure EV market in China.

On January 14, 2015, we announced that the first 60 Kandi Brand EVs were delivered to launch an innovative EV business model, which we called “Mini Police Car” Program. The EVs are the first time used by Hangzhou Uptown Public Security Bureau to facilitate performance of community safety patrols, population permit patrols, fire safety inspections, as well as other police duties. The Mini Police Car offers the advantage for police to quick access into these congested areas and small alleyways to carry out its duties. Kandi equips these EVs with the necessary police equipment, firefighting apparatuses, emergency kits, and other related equipment. In addition to our successful EV sharing program catering to average Chinese consumers, we hope to explore more EV growth opportunities in the area of fleet sales and leasing to large business and government entities in China in the future.

From January 23 to 25, 2015, the 2014 Global New Energy Auto Conference was held in Tianjin China. More than 700 people attended this conference, including government officers, scholars, auto industry experts, ecommerce companies, electric vehicles users, industry investors, technical development personnel, media and others. During the conference, Mr. Hu Xiaoming, our Chairman and CEO, was granted the sole award for  “Innovator of Annual Green Auto ”.

10

On January 31 2015, Mr. Hu Xiaoming, our Chairman and CEO, visited Shenzhen Chuangming Battery Technology Co., LTD. (“Chuangming”), which engages in research and development, production and distribution in the field of Lithium ion battery. Both parties had a friendly detailed discussion on how to apply the high performance battery No. 18650 from Chuangming on Kandi’s EVs and align with the intention of cooperation. The visit for Mr. Hu is to seek the partner for high performance battery for Kandi’s EV products, and secure the supply of EV’s battery for future mass EVs production.

On February 15, 2015, the management of the JV Company made a decision to add the direct-selling operation to its business for the sale of pure EVs, in addition to the current fleet sale model. The JV Company has made good progress in selling EV products to the Service Company, which operates various leasing options including short-term rental and the Long-term Leasing Program.  We believe the EV-Share Program will continue to be the main business growth driver for the JV Company. Meanwhile, in line with the growing direct market demand from end users, the JV Company will begin to explore direct selling option. A new pure EV product, JL7001BEV03, or Cyclone, developed by the JV Company will be mainly directly sold to the end users. Up to date, Cyclone has passed the required technical inspection and tests from various regulated agencies in China, including National Passenger Car Quality Supervision and Inspection Centre. The Company also filed the final application of the product public announcement with China’s MIIT and expect the application to be approved within the next two months. “Cyclone” is a five-door, four-seat vehicle equipped with a newly developed triple element lithium ion battery, with a comfortable seating area and reliable safety conditions. Cyclone utilizes a central control system that features both touch screen and conventional buttons, and it has also achieved multiple domestic automobile leading standards. The participated launch of Cyclone will further strengthen the leading position of the JV Company in the new energy automobile industry. As the JV Company gears up to sell EVs direct to end users this year, we believe that the JV Company will have great advantages in both fleet sales and direct sales markets.

Sales and Distribution

The Company has three main products: electric vehicle products, electric vehicle parts and off-road vehicles in year 2014. According to the JV Agreement with Geely, we will be gradually transferring the production of the EV products to the JV Company, and continue to share the 50% economic benefits share from the JV Company. Besides EVs, Kandi focuses on the design, production and distribution of EVs parts, which has demonstrated significant growth in  2014. Additionally, Kandi still continued to produce and sell the off-road vehicles, which is our traditional products.

Customers

As of December 31, 2014, our major customers, in the aggregate, accounted for 71% of our sales. Currently, the Company is developing new business partners and clients for our products to reduce our dependence on existing customers and focusing the new business development efforts on our pure EV sharing project;business.

The Company's major customers, each of whom accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue, were as follows:

11

Sources of Supply

All the raw materials are purchased from the suppliers. The major parts of our products are mainly manufactured by Kandi. Other components and (iii) quantify all factors contributingparts that are needed are purchased from third-party suppliers. Kandi does not have, and does not anticipate having, any difficulty in obtaining required materials from its suppliers. In reaching this determination, we considered our current contracts and our current business relationships with our suppliers.

The Company's material suppliers, each of whom accounted for more than 10% of our total purchases, were as follows:

Competitors

Our EV business faces the competition from two parts, one is the competition with traditional vehicles and the other is the competition from other EVs manufacturers.

In terms of the competition with the traditional vehicle manufacturers, many competitors are larger and have greater financial resources. But the traditional automobile companies face many urban traffic challenges, including urban pollution, traffic congestion, insufficient parking space and energy crisis., which gives us great opportunities for EVs’ development. The government grants great support and issues favorable policies to promote EVs development, which is a clear evidence for EVs growth. We believe electric vehicle industry in China has many years of great potential growth ahead.

Within electric vehicle market itself, the competitions are fierce as we have to compete with many domestic and global EV manufactures with greater brand recognition and financial resources. However, being one of the earliest companies to engage in the research, production and distribution of electric vehicles, we believe we have the advantage on the technology, innovation on the vehicle business operation and distribution channel. In particular, the innovative EV-Share Program, or MPT model we have been advocating,  is different from our competitors’ offering, and has been well received by the government and the end users. This business model, along with our continuous efforts on research and development as well as strategic alliance, shall help us to build competitive  advantages over other EV manufacturers.

Intellectual Property and Licenses

Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. We rely on a combination of patents, patent applications, trademarks, copyright and trade secret protection laws in China and other jurisdictions, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property and our brand. As of December 31, 2014, we had 26 issued patents, 2 issued software copyrights and 6 pending patent applications with Chinese patent authority related to electrical vehicle products, electrical vehicle parts and off-road vehicle products. Under the PRC Patent Law, an invention patent is valid for a term of 20 years and a utility or design patent is valid for a term of 10 years. Our patents are valid for 10 years. In addition, we are authorized to use the trademark of “Kandi” and we are the owner of the trademark of “JASSCOL”. We intend to continue to file additional patent applications with respect to our technology.

Employees

As of December 31, 2014, excluding the contractors, Kandi had a total of 516 full-time employees as compared to 430 full-time employees on December 31, 2013, of which 328 employees are production personnel, 14 employees are sales personnel, 44 employees are research and development personnel, and 130 employees are administrative personnel. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our relationships with our employees to be good. We also employ consultants on an as needed basis.

Pure Electric Vehicles Subsidies

Currently, there are two subsidies from central and local governments for the pure EVs in China – one from each of the central and local governments. The ultimate beneficiary for these subsidies is the consumer and the actual prices that consumers pay reflect the deduction of both subsidies.

a) The central government provides a subsidy to manufacturers paid in advance quarterly upon application and approval and settled annually. After selling product to dealers, manufacturers can submit subsidy payment applications with invoices and other supporting documents at the end of each quarter to the requisite central government agencies through their regional offices. After the review and approval by the agencies, the central government makes advance subsidy payments to the manufacturers. At the end of the year, the final subsidy amounts are verified, reconciled according to the number of vehicles actually sold to consumers and settled on an annual basis.

b) Pursuant to the requirement of the central government, the local governments provide a subsidy to consumers who purchase EVs by a price reduction from the dealer. After the consumer purchases an EV at a reduced selling price from the dealer, the dealer submits a subsidy application to the local government, including a consumer authorization letter for subsidy application, consumer personal I.D., EV Vehicle License, EV purchase invoice and other required documents and requests reimbursement (to the dealer) for the local government subsidy.

Our products are all subject to international laws and emissions related regulations, including regulations and related standards established by China Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”), Europe and Canada.

All Kandi's products comply with all applicable emissions standards and regulations in China Environmental Protection Agency, the United States and internationally, the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”), Europe and Canada. However, we are unable to predict the ultimate impact of standards and regulations adopted in the future or proposed regulations on Kandi and its business.

Use regulation

The sale and use of products must be subject to the "Traffic Law" and relevant laws & regulations in China. National, State, and federal laws and regulations have been promulgated, or are under consideration, that impact the use or manner of use of Kandi's products. Certain states and local authorities have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, legislation and local ordinances which restrict the use of ATVs and off-road vehicles to specified hours and locations. The federal government also has restricted the use of ATVs and off-road vehicles in some national parks and federal lands. In several instances, the restriction has been a complete ban on the recreational use of these vehicles. Kandi is unable to predict the outcome of such actions or the possible effect on its business. Kandi believes that its off-road vehicle business would be no more adversely affected than those of its competitors by the adoption of any such pending laws or regulations.

Product Safety and Regulation

Safety Regulation

The U.S. federal government and individual states have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, laws and regulations relating to the use and safety of Kandi's products. The federal government is the primary regulator of product safety. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) has federal oversight over product safety issues related to ATVs and off-road vehicles. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) has federal oversight over product safety issues related to on-road motorcycles.

In August 2008, the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (the “Act”) was passed. The Act requires all manufacturers and distributors who import into or distribute ATVs within the United States to comply with the ANSI/SVIA safety standards, which were previously voluntary. The Act also requires the same manufacturers and distributors to have ATV action plans filed with the CPSC that are substantially similar to the voluntary action plans that were previously in effect. Kandi currently complies with the ANSI/SVIA standards.

Kandi's motorcycles are subject to federal vehicle safety standards administered by NHTSA. Kandi's motorcycles are also subject to various state vehicle safety standards. Kandi believes that its motorcycles comply with safety standards applicable to motorcycles.

Kandi's products are also subject to international safety standards in places where it sells its products outside the United States. Kandi believes that its motorcycles and EVs comply with applicable safety standards in the United States and internationally.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this Annual Report that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Our future growth is dependent upon consumers’ willingness to adopt EVs.

Our growth is highly dependent upon the adoption by consumers of, and we are subject to a risk of any reduced demand for, alternative fuel vehicles in general and EVs in particular. The market for alternative fuel vehicles (including EVs) is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. If the market for EVs in China does not develop as we expect or develops more slowly than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be harmed.

The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

Chinese government has made significant efforts in actively advocating the development of new energy vehicles to reach production and sales targets of 0.5 million New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) by 2015 and 5 million NEVs by 2020. We received support from the local and central government of the PRC from time to time. Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, the reduced need for such subsidies and incentives due to the customer base of our EVs, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel vehicle industry generally or our EVs in particular. This could materially and adversely affect the growth of the alternative fuel automobile markets and our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Our growth depends in part on the availability and amounts of government subsidies and economic incentives for alternative fuel vehicles generally and performance EVs specifically. For example, purchasers of three models of Kandi brand EVs are eligible to receive purchase tax exemption at the amount of 10% of the vehicle’s total purchase price during the three-year period from September 1, 2014. Purchasers of Kandi's SMA7000BEV and SMA7001BEV models are the ultimate beneficiaries, on a per car basis, the national government subsidy of RMB 47,500.00 (Approximately $7,738.00) and the local government subsidy of RMB 47,500.00 (Approximately $7,738.00) from provincial government and municipal government combined at both Chengdu (Sichuan province) and Nanjing (Jiangsu province). Additionally, these two vehicle models also qualify for free license plates in Shanghai. The license plates in Shanghai are auctioned to the public at an average price between RMB70,000.00 to RMB80,000.00 ($11,410.00 to $13,040.00) per license plate. While we believe the latest tax exemption, along with a series of government incentives and subsidies, may have a very positive impact on the sales of Kandi Brand EVs in China going forward, we cannot assure you it is always the case. In the event such favored policy and treatment discontinue, our business outlook and financial conditions could be negatively impacted.

15

Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in the internal combustion engine may materially adversely affect the demand for our EVs.

Significant developments in alternative technologies, such as advanced diesel, ethanol, fuel cells or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects in ways we do not currently anticipate. Any failure by us to develop new or enhanced technologies or processes, or to react to changes in existing technologies, could materially delay our development and introduction of new and enhanced EVs, which could result in the loss of competitiveness of our vehicles, decreased revenue and a loss of market share to competitors.

If we are unable to keep up with advances in electric vehicle technology, we may suffer a decline in our competitive position.

We may be unable to keep up with changes in EV technology and, as a result, may suffer a decline in our competitive position. Any failure to keep up with advances in EV technology would result in a decline in our competitive position which would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. Our research and development efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in EV technology. As technologies change, we plan to upgrade or adapt our vehicles and introduce new models in order to continue to provide vehicles with the latest technology, in particular battery cell technology. However, our vehicles may not compete effectively with alternative vehicles if we are not able to source and integrate the latest technology into our vehicles. For example, we do not manufacture battery cells, which makes us dependent upon other suppliers of battery cell technology for our battery packs.

Our business depends substantially on the continuing efforts of our executive officers, and our business may be severely disrupted if we lose their services.

Our future success depends substantially on the continued services of our executive officers, especially our CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr. Hu Xiaoming. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our executive officers. If any of our executive officers are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all. Therefore, our business may be severely disrupted, and we may incur additional expenses to recruit and retain new officers. In addition, if any of our executive officers joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose some of our customers.

We may be subject to product liability claims, or recalls which could be expensive, damage our reputation and result in a diversion of management resources.

We may be subject to lawsuits resulting from injuries associated with the use of the vehicles that we sells or produces. We may incur losses relating to these claims or the defense of these claims. There is a risk that claims or liabilities will exceed our insurance coverage. In addition, we may be unable to retain adequate liability insurance in the future.

We may also be required to participate in recalls involving our vehicles, if any prove to be defective, or we may voluntarily initiate a recall or make payments related to such claims as a result of various industry or business practices or the need to maintain good customer relationships. Such a recall would result in a diversion of resources. While we do maintain product liability insurance, we cannot assure you that it will be sufficient to cover all product liability claims, that such claims will not exceed our insurance coverage limits or that such insurance will continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Any product liability claim brought against us could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We retain certain personal information about our customers and may be subject to various privacy and consumer protection laws.

We and our operating companies use our vehicles’ electronic systems to log information about each vehicle’s condition, performance and use in order to aid us in providing customer service, including vehicle diagnostics, repair and maintenance, as well as to help us collect data regarding our customers’ charge time, battery usage, mileage and efficiency habits and to improve our vehicles. We also collect information about our customers through our website, at our stores and facilities, and via telephone.

16

Our customers may object to the processing of this data, which may negatively impact our ability to provide effective customer service and develop new vehicles and products. Collection and use of our customers’ personal information in conducting our business may be subject to national and local laws and regulations in the PRC, and such laws and regulations may restrict our processing of such personal information and hinder our ability to attract new customers or market to existing customers. We may incur significant expenses to comply with privacy, consumer protection and security standards and protocols imposed by law, regulation, industry standards or contractual obligations. Although we take steps to protect the security of our customers’ personal information, we may be required to expend significant resources to comply with data breach requirements if third parties improperly obtain and use the personal information of our customers or we otherwise experience a data loss with respect to customers’ personal information. A major breach of our network security and systems could have serious negative consequences for our businesses and future prospects, including possible fines, penalties and damages, reduced customer demand for our vehicles, and harm to our reputation and brand.

Our business will be adversely affected if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights from unauthorized use or infringement by third parties.

Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary rights could result in weakening or loss of such rights, which may allow our competitors to offer similar or identical products or use identical or confusingly similar branding, potentially resulting in the loss of some of our competitive advantage, a decrease in our revenue and an attribution of potentially lower quality products to us, which would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we rely on a combination of patents, patent applications, trade secrets, including know-how, employee and third party nondisclosure agreements, copyright protection, trademarks, intellectual property licenses and other contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology. We have also received from third parties patent licenses related to manufacturing our vehicles.

The protection provided by the patent laws is and will be important to our future opportunities. However, such patents and agreements and various other measures we take to protect our intellectual property from use by others may not be effective for various reasons, including the following:

• our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of patents;
• our patents, if issued, may not be broad enough to protect our commercial endeavors;
• the patents we have been granted may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented because of the pre-existence of similar patented or unpatented technology or for other reasons;
• the costs associated with obtaining and enforcing patents, confidentiality and invention agreements or other intellectual property rights may make aggressive enforcement impracticable; and
• current and future competitors may independently develop similar technology, duplicate our vehicles or design new vehicles in a way that circumvents our intellectual property.

Existing trademark and trade secret laws and confidentiality agreements afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States, and policing the unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult.

We may need to defend ourselves against patent or trademark infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs.

Companies, organizations or individuals, including our competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use, develop, sell or market our vehicles or components, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From time to time, we may receive inquiries from holders of patents or trademarks regarding their proprietary rights. Companies holding patents or other intellectual property rights may bring suits alleging infringement of such rights or otherwise assert their rights and seek licenses. In addition, if we are determined to have infringed upon a third party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to do one or more of the following:

17

• cease selling, incorporating or using vehicles or offering goods or services that incorporate or use the challenged intellectual property;
• pay substantial damages;
• obtain a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or at all; or
• redesign our vehicles or other goods or services.

In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us and our failure or inability to obtain a license to the infringed technology or other intellectual property right, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

We may also face claims that our use of technology licensed or otherwise obtained from a third party infringes the rights of others. In such cases, we may seek indemnification from our licensors/suppliers under our contracts with them. However, indemnification may be unavailable or insufficient to cover our costs and losses, depending on our use of the technology, whether we choose to retain control over conduct of the litigation, and other factors.

Our vehicles make use of lithium-ion battery cells, which could catch fire or vent smoke and flame. This may lead to additional concerns, about the batteries used in automotive applications.

The battery pack in our EV products makes use of lithium-ion cells. We also currently intend to make use of lithium-ion cells in battery packs on any future vehicles we may produce. On rare occasions, lithium-ion cells can rapidly release the energy they contain by venting smoke and flames in a manner that can ignite nearby materials as well as other lithium-ion cells. Extremely rare incidents of laptop computers, cell phones and EV battery packs catching fire have focused consumer attention on the safety of these cells.

These events have raised concerns about the batteries used in automotive applications. To address these questions and concerns, a number of cell manufacturers are pursuing alternative lithium-ion battery cell chemistries to improve safety.  We may have to recall our vehicles or participate in a recall of a vehicle that contains our battery packs, and redesign our battery packs, which would be time consuming and expensive. Also, negative public perceptions regarding the suitability of lithium-ion cells for automotive applications or any future incident involving lithium-ion cells such as a vehicle or other fire, even if such incident does not involve us, could seriously harm our business.

In addition, we store a significant number of lithium-ion cells at our manufacturing facility. Any mishandling of battery cells may cause disruption to the operation of our facilities. While we have implemented safety procedures related to the handling of the cells, there can be no assurance that a safety issue or fire related to the cells would not disrupt our operations. Such damage or injury would likely lead to adverse publicity and potentially a safety recall. Moreover, any failure of a competitor’s EV, may cause indirect adverse publicity for us and our EVs. Such adverse publicity would negatively affect our brand and harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

18

Compliance with environmental regulations can be expensive, and noncompliance with these regulations may result in adverse publicity and potentially significant monetary damages and fines.

Our business operations generate noise, waste water, gaseous byproduct and other industrial waste. We are required to comply with all national and local regulations regarding protection of the environment. We are in compliance with current environmental protection requirements and have all necessary environmental permits to conduct our business. However, if more stringent regulations are adopted in the future, the costs of compliance with these new regulations could be substantial. Additionally, if we fail to comply with present or future environmental regulations, we may be required to pay substantial fines, suspend production or cease operations. Any failure by us to control the use of, or to adequately restrict the unauthorized discharge of, hazardous substances could subject us to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspensions to our business operations. Certain laws, ordinances and regulations could limit our ability to develop, use, or sell our products.

The electric vehicle industry is highly competitive, and we are subject to risks relating to competition that may adversely affect our performance.

The electric vehicle industry is highly competitive, and our continued success depends upon our ability to compete effectively in markets that contain many competitors, some of which have significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. Competition may affect our pricing structures, potentially causing us to lower our prices, which may adversely impact our profits. New or existing competition that uses a business model that is different from our business model may put pressure on us to change our model so that we can remain competitive.

Our high concentration of sales to relatively few customers may result in significant impact our liquidity, business, results of operations and financial condition.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, our top five customers, in the aggregate, accounted for 84% and 67%, respectively, of our sales and accounts receivable. Due to the concentration of sales to relatively few customers, loss of one or more of these customers will have relatively high impact on our operational results.

Our business is subject to the risk of supplier concentrations.

We depend on a limited number of suppliers for the sourcing of major components and parts and principal raw materials. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the top two suppliers accounted for 57% and 65% of our purchases, respectively. As a result of this concentration in our supply chain, our business and operations would be negatively affected if any of our key suppliers were to experience significant disruption affecting the price, quality, availability or timely delivery of their products. The partial or complete loss of these suppliers, or a significant adverse change in interest income (expense)our relationship with any of these suppliers, could result in lost revenue, added costs and distribution delays that could harm our business and customer relationships. In addition, concentration in our supply chain can exacerbate our exposure to risks associated with the termination by key suppliers of our distribution agreements or any adverse change in the section entitled “Interest Income (Expense), Net.” The Company also amended Note 19terms of the “Notessuch agreements, which could have a negative impact on our revenues and profitability.

Our facilities or operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of disasters or unpredictable events.

Our headquarters and facilities are located in several cities in China such as Jinhua, Yongkang and Wanning. If major disasters such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, wars, terrorist attacks, computer viruses, pandemics or other events occur, or our information system or communications network breaks down or operates improperly, our headquarters and production facilities may be seriously damaged, or we may have to Consolidated Financial Statements” under Item 8stop or delay production and shipment of Part IIour products. We may incur expenses relating to more clearly detail how the Company’ssuch damages, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

19

If we fail to maintain an effective income tax rate was calculated. Finally,system of internal controls, we also amended the disclosure under “Item 13. Certain Relationshipsmay not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and Related Transactions, and Director Independence” to be consistent with other disclosures made elsewhere in the Form 10-K. The supplementary disclosure does not affect any numberspotential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX 404, the SEC adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on our internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports.

Despite of our recent efforts in improving our internal control procedures and remediating the material weakness, we cannot provide assurance that we will not fail to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment on an ongoing basis, which may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

The audit report included in this Annual Report was prepared by auditors who are not inspected by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and, as a result, you are deprived of the benefits of such inspection

The independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit reports included in our annual reports filed with the SEC, as auditors of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), or the “PCAOB”, is required by the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess its compliance with the laws of the United States and professional standards. Because our auditors are located in the PRC, a jurisdiction where the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the PRC authorities, our auditors are not currently inspected by the PCAOB.

Inspections of other firms that the PCAOB has conducted outside China have identified deficiencies in those firms' audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditor's statements, containedaudits and quality control procedures. As a result, investors may be deprived of the benefits of PCAOB inspections.

The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in Form 10-K.China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of our auditor's quality control and audit procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to PCAOB inspections. Investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements.

NoRisks Related to Doing Business in China

The economy of China had experienced unprecedented growth. This growth has slowed in the recent years, and if the growth of the economy continues to slow or if the economy contracts, our financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

The rapid growth of the PRC economy had historically resulted in widespread growth opportunities in industries across China. This growth has slowed in the recent years. As a result of the global financial crisis and the inability of enterprises to gain comparable access to the same amounts of capital available in past years, there may be an adverse effect on the business climate and growth of private enterprise in the PRC. An economic slowdown could have an adverse effect on our sales and may increase our costs. Further, if economic growth continues to slow, and if, in conjunction, inflation is allowed to proceed unchecked, our costs would likely increase, and there can be no assurance that we would be able to increase our prices to an extent that would offset the increase in our expenses.

In addition, a tightening of the labor markets in our geographic region may result in fewer qualified applicants for job openings in our facilities. Further, higher wages, related labor costs and other increasing cost trends may negatively impact our results.

Changes in political and economic conditions may affect our business operations and profitability.

Since our business operations are primarily located in China, our business operations and financial position are subject, to a significant degree, to the economic, political and legal developments in China.

20

While the Chinese government has not halted its economic reform policy since 1978, any significant adverse changes in the social, political and economic conditions of China may fundamentally impact China's economic reform policies, and thus the Company's operations and profits may be adversely affected.

Uncertainties with respect to the Chinese legal system could have a material adverse effect on us and may restrict the level of legal protections to foreign investors.

China's legal system is based on statutory law. Unlike the common law system, statutory law is based primarily on written statutes. Previous court decisions may be cited as persuasive authority but do not have a binding effect. Since 1979, the PRC government has been promulgating and amending the laws and regulations regarding economic matters, such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new, and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretation of many laws, regulations and rules is not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us.

In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and may result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management's attention. The legal system in China cannot provide investors with the same level of protection as in the U.S. The Company is governed by laws and regulations generally applicable to local enterprises in China. Many of these laws and regulations were recently introduced and remain experimental in nature and subject to changes and refinements. Interpretation, implementation and enforcement of the existing laws and regulations can be uncertain and unpredictable and therefore may restrict the legal protections available to foreign investors.

Changes in Currency Conversion Policies in China may have a material adverse effect on us.

Renminbi (“RMB”) is still not a freely exchangeable currency. Since 1998, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of China has promulgated a series of circulars and rules in order to enhance verification of foreign exchange payments under a Chinese entity's current account items, and has imposed strict requirements on borrowing and repayments of foreign exchange debts from and to foreign creditors under the capital account items and on the creation of foreign security in favor of foreign creditors.

This may complicate foreign exchange payments to foreign creditors under the current account items and thus may affect the ability to borrow under international commercial loans, the creation of foreign security, and the borrowing of RMB under guarantees in foreign currencies. Moreover, the value of RMB may become subject to supply and demand, which could be largely impacted by international economic and political environments. Any fluctuations in the exchange rate of RMB could have an adverse effect on the operational and financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries in China.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions based on United States or foreign laws against us, our management or the experts named in the prospectus.

We conduct substantially all of our operations in China and almost all of our assets are located in China. In addition, almost all of our senior executive officers reside in China. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process on our senior executive officers within the United States or elsewhere outside China, including with respect to matters arising under U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws. Moreover, our PRC counsel has advised us that the PRC does not have treaties with the United States or many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of court orders and final judgments.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Securities

Our stock price may be volatile, which may result in losses to our shareholders.

The stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations, and the market prices and trading volumes of companies listed on the NASDAQ Global Market and the NASDAQ Global Select Market have been madevolatile. Although our stock was listed on the NASDAQ Global Market and upgraded to the Form 10-K.NASDAQ Global Select Market on January 2, 2014, the trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate significantly in response to many factors, including the following, some of which are beyond our control:

21

• variations in our operating results;

• changes in expectations of our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts and investors;

• changes in operating and stock price performance of other companies in our industry;

• additions or departures of key personnel; and

• future sales of our common stock.

Domestic and international stock markets often experience significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions unrelated to our performance, may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Mr. Hu, our CEO, President and Chairman of our Board of Directors is the beneficial owner of a substantial portion of our outstanding common stock, which may enable Mr. Hu to exert significant influence on corporate actions.

Excelvantage Group Limited controls approximately 25.9% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of March 9, 2015. Hu Xiaoming, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors, is the sole stockholder of Excelvantage Group Limited. Together with the shares held through Excelvantage Group Limited, Mr. Hu has 28.0% of our outstanding shares of common stock which could have a substantial impact on matters requiring the vote of our shareholders, including the election of our directors and most corporate actions. This Amendmentcontrol could delay, defer or prevent others from initiating a potential merger, takeover or other change in our control, even if these actions would benefit our other shareholders and the Company. This control could adversely affect the voting and other rights of our other shareholders and could depress the market price of our common stock.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to our common shareholders.

We presently do not anticipate that we will pay dividends on any of our common stock in the foreseeable future. If payment of dividends does occur at some point in the future, it would be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. The payment of any common stock dividends will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors. We presently intend to retain all earnings to implement our business plan; accordingly, we do not reflect events occurring afteranticipate the declaration of any dividends for common stock in the foreseeable future.

Fluctuation in the value of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on your investment.

The change in value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar, the Euro and other currencies is affected by changes in China's political and economic conditions, among other things. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade-old policy of pegging the value of the RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, the RMB is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against certain foreign currencies. While the international reaction to the RMB revaluation has generally been positive, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which could result in a further and more significant appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar. As a portion of our costs and expenses is denominated in RMB, the revaluation in July 2005 and potential future revaluation has and could further increase our costs. In addition, any significant revaluation of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from financings into RMB for our operations, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the RMB amount we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us.

22

The limitation of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Delaware law and the existence of statutory indemnification rights of our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by our Company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our articles of incorporation do not contain any specific provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our Company and shareholders; however, we are prepared to indemnify our directors and officers to the extent provided for by Delaware law. We may also have include contractual indemnification obligations in our employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against its directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our Company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our Company and shareholders.

We may need additional capital, and the Form 10-K,sale of additional shares or other equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders.

In the future, we may require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available, if at all, in amounts or on terms acceptable to us.

Our business is subject to changing regulations related to corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both our costs and the risk of noncompliance.

Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal, state and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and NASDAQ, have issued requirements and regulations and continue to develop additional regulations and requirements in response to corporate scandals and laws enacted by Congress. Our efforts to comply with these regulations have resulted in, and are likely to continue resulting in, increased general and administrative expenses and diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. Because new and modified laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices.

Techniques employed by manipulative short sellers in Chinese small cap stocks may drive down the market price of our common stock.

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not update disclosures containedown but rather has, supposedly, borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the Form 10-K,value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is therefore in the short seller’s best interests for the price of the stock to decline, many short sellers (sometime known as “disclosed shorts”) publish, or arrange for the publication of, negative opinions or reports regarding the relevant issuer and its business prospects in order to create negative market momentum and generate profits for themselves after selling a stock short. These short attacks have, in the past, led to selling of shares in the market, on occasion in large scale and broad base.

23

These short seller publications are not regulated by any governmental, self-regulatory organization or other official authority in the U.S., are not subject to the certification requirements imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Regulation AC (Regulation Analyst Certification) and, accordingly, the opinions they express may be based on distortions of actual facts or, in some cases, fabrications of facts. In light of the limited risks involved in publishing such information, and the enormous profit that can be made from running just one successful short attack, unless the short sellers become subject to significant penalties, it is more likely than not that disclosed short sellers will continue to issue such reports.

While we intend to strongly defend our public filings against any such short seller attack, often times we are constrained, either by principles of freedom of speech, applicable state law (often called “Anti-SLAPP statutes”), or issues of commercial confidentiality, in the manner in which we can proceed against the relevant short seller. You should be aware that in light of the relative freedom to operate that such persons enjoy – oftentimes blogging from outside the U.S. with little or no assets or identity requirements – should we be targeted for such an attack, our stock will likely suffer from a temporary, or possibly long term, decline in market price should the rumors created not be dismissed by market participants.

Item 2. Properties.

Kandi has the following granted land use rights:

All land in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold or transferred by or to any individual or private entity. Instead, the government grants or allocates landholders a “land use right.” There are four methods to acquire land use rights:

• grant of the right to use land;
• assignment of the right to use land;
• lease of the right to use land; and
• allocated land use rights.

In comparison with Western common law concepts, granted land use rights are similar to life estates and allocated land use rights are in some ways similar to leaseholds.

Granted land use rights are provided by the government in exchange for a grant fee and carry the rights to pledge, mortgage, lease, and transfer during the term of the grant. Land is granted for a fixed term, which is generally 70 years for residential use, 50 years for industrial use, and 40 years for commercial or other use. The term is renewable in theory. Granted land must be used for the specific purpose for which it was granted.

24

Allocated land use rights cannot be pledged, mortgaged, leased, or transferred. They are generally provided by the government for an indefinite period (usually to state-owned entities) and can be reclaimed by the government at any time. Allocated land use rights may be converted into granted land use rights upon the payment of a grant fee to the government.

Kandi has the following real estate properties:

Item 7.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

Overview

Our core business is designing, developing,Prior to 2013, we were primarily engaged in the design, manufacturing and commercializing puresales of traditional off-road vehicle products. Due to fast-growing market demand for electric vehicles (“EVs”), all-terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), go-karts, three-wheeled motorcycles and other specialized vehicles. We conduct our business primarily through our wholly-owned subsidiaries that operate in China and other global markets,Chinese government’s ambitious plan to lower pollution by adopting five million alternative-energy vehicles by 2020, we gradually and most typically, we sellsuccessfully transformed our non-EVcore business to the development of electric vehicle products to Chinese export agents who then resell our products in North America, Europe,(EV products) and other regions.

electric vehicle parts (EV parts). During the year ended December 31, 2013,2014, we recognizedhad total net revenues of $94,536,045,$170,229,006, an increase of $30,022,375,$75,692,961, or 46.5%80.1%, over totalour net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012.2013. The majority of our revenues arewere generated by the sales of EV parts and EV products, which accountaccounted for 49%88.4% of theour total revenue in 2014.The significant revenue growth was mainly driven by the increased sales of EV parts during the year.

During the year 2014, we focused our efforts on the design, manufacturing and sales of EV parts and experienced significant sales growth from this business line. For the year ended December 31, 2014, we achieved net revenue of $116,431,310 from selling EV parts, mostly to our JV Company, an increase of $114,707,279, or 6653.4%, as compared to $1,724,031 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The main reasonWe were in the early stage of significantEV parts manufacturing in 2014, we haven’t reached a scale production and the unit prices of related parts were relatively high, which resulted in less profitable gross margin for our EV parts manufacturing. We believe, as our production volumes pick up and raw materials and unit prices of parts continue to fall, our EV parts unit production cost will gradually decrease and our gross margin will gradually improve.

Pursuant to our Joint Venture agreement, we gradually transferred our EV production to the JV Company in 2014, which caused our sales volume of EV products to decrease in the year compared with year 2013. However, as we have a 50% ownership interest in the JV Company and accounted for our investments in the JV Company under the equity method of accounting, we received 50% of the JV Company’s net profit for the year or $3,763,082 in the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to a loss of $1,510,378 in the year ended December 31, 2013. As the JV Company was established not too long ago and the business was still in the start-up phase, its earnings were not high but have great potential for growth. We believe our economic benefits from the JV Company will greatly increase in revenue generatedthe future as its business continues to steadily grow.

We continued to produce off-road vehicles in 2014 and our revenues from this business line decreased by $26,373,733 from year-ago period, or 57.1%, to $19,819,078 for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease was mainly because we shifted our business strategy to put more resources and efforts on Chinese EV industry to meet the increasing market demand for alternative energy vehicles. We believe this realignment of business focus is becausethe newly added EV models –Kandi Brand SMA7000BEV, a five-door & five-seat vehicle and SMA7001BEV, an improved modelin the best interest of electric vehicle, were both sold at a higher price. the Company’s long-term strategy for business growth.

In 2013, the Company2014, we recorded $21,742,528$23,403,933 of gross profit, increased 68.6%an increase of 7.6% from 2012,2013, primarily due to the increase of revenue.

Excludinga loss of $16,647,283 for the affects of the change in the fair value of financial instruments and stock awards in both 2012years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recordedrespectively, our net income (non-GAAP) of $5,164,880 in 2013was $14,195,452for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to net income (non-GAAP) of $4,168,072 in 2012, or$5,164,880 for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of 23.9% $9,030,572 or 174.8%. The increase in such net income was primarily attributable to the increase of revenue and gross profits during the year of 2014.

The vehicle manufacturing industry is highly competitive.competitive in China. Current and future factors impacting our industry include: (i) the exponential growth of electrical vehicle sales and dedicated platforms in the global market place, (ii) the consolidation of supply chains and costs of components, (iii) rapid technology developments (including 3D printing technology) and (iv) emerging strategic partnerships and joint ventures in the automotive industry generally.

Our business strategy includes our efforts to provide our customers with high-quality products, and to expand our footprint in new and existing markets. As part of these efforts, we have invested in a joint venture company called Zhejiang Kandi Electric Vehicles Co., Ltd. (the “JV Company”), which develops, manufacturesmarkets, and sells EVs and related products. In December 2013,to advance our EV business was recognized as producing the top two model types of EVs in China. These EV model types have an impressive driving range of 150 kilometers or more, which entitles them to a higher rebate or subsidy than older models under Chinese policy. We are also advancing the profile and demand for our EV products through the EV sharing project.Sharing Project. To further this initiative, we are working with our business partners to build a network of public EV sharing stations (for charging and parking) and partnering with high-end hotels in the Hangzhou area of China to provide energy-efficient, convenient travel options for local citizens and tourists. We anticipate that our pure EV business in China, through the operations of the JV Company and with the support of new Chinese subsidy policies, will continue to develop and thrivegrow in the future.‍

The following table summarizes our revenues as well as the number of units sold by product types for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012:

EV Parts

During the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from the sale of EV parts were $116,431,310, representing an increase of $114,707,279 or 6,653.4% from $1,724,031 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and an increase of $112,914,073 or 3,210.3% from $3,517,237 for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively

Our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014 primarily consisted of the sales of battery packs, body parts, EV drive motors, EV controllers, air conditioning units and other auto parts to the JV Company for manufacturing of EV products. Of the total EV parts sold for the year ended December 31, 2014, approximately 83%, or the majority of the sales, were related to the sale of battery packs. Due to the Chinese auto industry regulation, we hold the necessary production license to manufacture the battery packs exclusively used in Kandi brand name’s EVs manufactured by the JV Company. Besides the sale of battery packs, approximately 6% of the sales were related to the sales of EV controllers, approximately 5% of the sales were related to the sales of air conditioning units, approximately 4% of the sales were related to the sales of EV drive motors and approximately 2% of the sales were related to the sales of body parts and other auto parts.

We started the EV parts business to the JV Company in the first quarter of 2014. During the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from the sale of EV parts to the JV Company accounted the majority or approximately 68% of our total net revenue for the year. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the majority of EV parts sold to the JV Companies, or approximately 56% of the sales were to Kandi Changxing, approximately 34% of the sales were to Kandi Shanghai, and approximately 10% of the sales were to Kandi Jinhua. Theses EV parts were used in manufacturing pure EV products by the JV Company’s subsidiaries, all of which were sold to Shanghai Maple Auto Co., Ltd.(“Shanghai Maple”). Shanghai Maple is an unaffiliated company that was granted by the Chinese government vehicle production rights for EV sedans, which is equivalent to a license that qualifies it to sell the EV products to the end customers. Our increased sales of EV parts during the year were largely driven by 46.5%the manufacturing of EV products by the JV Company to meet the EV demand of EV-Share Program. According to the JV Agreement, we are primarily responsible for supplying the JV Company with EV parts and the JV Company is primarily responsible for producing EV products and finished automobiles through sales channels to its end customers.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, of the total EV parts sales, our revenues from the sale of auto generators to other customers were $57,632, a decrease of $1,666,399, or 96.7% from $1,724,031 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and a decrease of $3,459,605 or 98.4% from $3,517,237 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease in revenue was primarily due to the realignment of Yongkang Scrou’s product offering to shift focus to the manufacturing of automobile motors, air-conditioning systems, controllers, and accelerator pedals for EVs.

EV Products

Our revenues from the sale of EV products for the fiscal year of 2014 were $33,978,619 including $33,421,638 from selling EV products and $556,981 from OEM-EV business line, representing a decrease of $12,640,584 or 27.1% from $46,619,203 for the year ended December 31, 2013 but an increase of $14,943,683 or 78.5% from $19,034,936 for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively

We continued to sell certain EV products (completed automobiles) during the year of 2014. Our revenues from the sale of EV products for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased by $13,197,565, or 28.3%, from $64,513,670 in 2012$46,619,203 for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $94,536,045 in 2013.

In 2013, our ATVs experienced an increase in revenue$33,421,638 for the year ended December 31, 2014, representing a 44.4% of $4,005,105 or 62.6%, a 26.5% increasereduction in unit sales andbut a 28.5%29.0% of increase in the average unit priceprice. As compared to fiscalour sale of EV products for the year 2012. The increaseended December 31, 2012, we increased our sales by $14,386,702, or 75.6%, representing a 33.4% of reduction in revenue was primarily attributable to the market condition for ATV products, which continued to recover and theunit sales but a 163.6% of increase in the average unit price is because a higher percentage of high-end and middle-end products were sold in 2013.

In 2013, our go-karts experienced an increase in revenue of $2,393,462, or 7.8%, a 5.7% increase in unit sales, and a 1.9% increase in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012.price. The increase in revenue was mainly attributable to the relative stable growth in go-karts sales. The Company manufactures both high-end, more expensive go-kart products and less expensive go-kart products to meet customers' various needs.

In 2013, our utility vehicles (“UTVs”) experienced an increase in revenue of $836,207 or 262.1%, a 373.1% increase in unit sales, and a 23.5% decrease in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012. The increase in revenue was mainly attributable to the increase of UTV orders. The decrease in the average unit price was largely due to the fact that cheaper model UTVs took a higher percentageinclusion of the cost for battery packs in the unit selling price in 2014. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from OEM business were $556,981 or 0.3% of total revenue. We started our OEM business in the second quarter of 2014, and our sales infor the year 2013

EV Products

In 2013, ourended December 31, 2014 were primarily derived from assembling EV products experienced an increase in revenue of $27,584,267 or 144.9%,for Kandi Jinhua, a 19.9% increase in unit sales, and a 104.3% increase in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012. In the fourth quarter, the EV revenues increased $26,382,915, or 193.7% compared to the same period of 2012. The unit sales grew by 27.2% and the average unit price increased by 130.9% . The significant increase was mainly attributable to the newly added EV model – Kandi Brand SMA7000BEV, a five-door & five-seat vehicle and SMA7001BEV, an improved model of electric vehicle, are both sold at a much higher price. The increasing sales were driven by the Hangzhou Public EV Sharing System (the “Carshare Project”).

The implementation of the Carshare Project, and other EV sharing networks, requires the development of public EV sharing stations. The Service Company is assisting the Company in the development of the public EV sharing stations. The Service Company is responsible for several aspects of the public EV sharing project, including: (i) launching the public EV sharing business; (ii) establishing a network of public EV sharing stations; (iii) investing in the construction of service facilities and parking facilities for the public EV sharing project; and (iv) providing services directly to customers who rent the EVs. The JV Company, a joint venture established by the Company and Geely (the “Joint Venture”), owns a 19% interest in the Service Company. The remaining 81% is owned by Jia Xing Jia Le Investment Partnership Enterprise, an entity which is unaffiliated with the Company.

The Company recognizes revenue from its EV sharing network when it sells the SKD set, a complete set of the main parts that can be assembled into whole vehicles, to Shanghai Maple. Shanghai Maple, a 99% ownedwholly-owned subsidiary of the Company’s business partner, Geely, then assembles the SKD into a complete vehicle and sells it to the ServiceJV Company. Revenue from the subsequent sale of the full vehicle to the Service Company by Shanghai Maple is not attributable to the Company. The Company indirectly owns a 9.5%Indirectly through our 50% ownership interest in the ServiceJV Company, through itswe have a 50% ownershipeconomic interest in Kandi Jinhua.

Our EV products business accounted approximately 20.0% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014, reduced from 49.3% and 29.5% in the Joint Venture.years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Of the total sales of EV products for the year ended December 31, 2014, approximately $25,593,023, or 75.3%, was sold to Shanghai Maple. The revenue from car rentals belongssales of EV products were mainly driven by the demand by EV-Share Program. In March 2013, Kandi Vehicles and Shanghai Maple Guorun Automobile Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Guorun”), a 99%-owned subsidiary of Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd. (“Geely”) formed a joint venture (the “JV Company” ) to develop, manufacture and sell EVs and related auto parts. Under the JV Agreement, our EV product manufacturing business will be gradually transferred to the ServiceJV Company. The decreased sales of EV products in 2014 as compared to that in 2013 was a result of this JV Agreement. In the future, under the JV Agreement, we will be mainly responsible for supplying the JV Company notwith EV parts and the JV Company will be responsible for manufacturing EV products and selling finished goods through channel to its end customers.

Off-Road Vehicles

During the Company. Therefore, the sole source of revenue to the Company isyear ended December 31, 2014, our revenues from the sale to Shanghai Maple of off-road vehicles including selling go karts, all-terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), and others were $19,819,078, representing a decrease of $26,373,733 or 57.1% from $46,192,811 for the Company’s SKDyear ended December 31, 2013 and a decrease of an EV.$22,142,419 or 52.8% from $41,961,497 for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.

As a result of the renewal of national subsidy policy in September of 2013, mostOur off road vehicles business line accounted for approximately 11.6% of our SKDtotal net revenue for the fiscal year 2014, compared to 48.9% for the fiscal year 2013 and 65.0% for the fiscal year 2012, respectively. Of which go-kart business accounted for approximately 7.5% of an EVour total net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014, reduced from 35.1% and 47.7% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and ATV business accounted for approximately 4.2% of our total net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014, reduced from 11.0% and 9.9% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The sales occurredof three wheeled motorcycles, utility vehicles (“UTVs”) and refitted cars were insignificant in the fourth quarter. We believe thatfiscal year of 2014 as compared to the sales in the first three quarters were negatively affected by the delay of the subsidy policy.

Motorcycles

Infiscal years 2013 our TT experienced a decrease in revenue of $889,138 or 69.9%, a 77.1% decrease in unit sales, and a 31.5% increase in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012. The decrease wasdecreased sales of these products were primarily attributable to the change in the product structure. There were less TTs manufactured and we may decrease or stop manufacturing such products. The increase in the average unit price in 2013 was because higher percentage of TTs sold were more expensive models.

Refitted Car

In 2013, our refitted car experienced a decrease in revenue of $2,114,322, or 66.6%, a decrease of 66.1% in unit sales and a 1.7% decrease in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012. The decrease in revenue was mainly because that the Company decided to discontinue this business during the third quarter of 2013 and focus its efforts on increasing its electric vehicles revenue in China market. “Refitted Car” is a term used by the Company to describe a line of business, where the Company modifies (refits) vehicles manufactured by unrelated, other companies to meet the special requirements of our customers. For example, the Company may make exterior changes, refit AMWS, or install nonstandard features, including, but not limited to, a rearview camera, TPMS, drive recorder, anti-theft device, reversing radar and DVD player.

Auto generator

In 2013, our auto generator experienced a decrease in revenue of $1,793,206 or 51.0%, a 45.0% decrease in unit sales and a 10.8% decrease in the average unit price compared to fiscal year 2012. The decrease in revenue was due to the adjustmentrearrangement of our product portfolio for more efficient use of our resources to capture more sales opportunities in yongkang Scrou's product offering from a manufacturer of auto alternator to a wide range of main products, such as driving motor, air-conditioning system and controller for electric vehicles now. Yongkang Scrou provides these products for use with our vehicles; salesthe fast-growing EV market in connection with providing these products to our vehicles are categorized as inter-company transactions and have been eliminated in consolidation.China.

However, sales increased by a higher percentage than related costs. Our sales had a 46.5% increase in 2013 compared to 2012; whereas our cost of goods sold only increased by 41.0% in 2013 compared to 2012. The main reasons that our costs increased by only 41.0% in 2013 compared to 2012 are as follows:

In consideration of the cost increase resulting$74,031,556, or 101.7%, from the increase of sales volume, the actual cost increase in 2013 is 5.5% less when compared to the increase in sales. This was the result of the following three factors:

1. In 2013, the cost of raw materials had a relatively slower increase, which is 5.7% less than the percentage of our sales increase in the same period of time, mainly because (i) the new products, especially our EV products were sold at higher price compared to 2012, therefore those products raw material costs had a relative low increase percentage compared to their sale increase; and (ii) the Company strengthened its cost control, reduced the waste of raw materials in manufacturing process.
   

2. With the labor cost increase in China, due to short supply and higher standard wages, our labor costs also increased. Total wages and salaries had a relatively higher increase of 0.3% in 2013, compared to the sale increase in the same period of time.
   

3. Our other overhead costs in 2013 had a relatively slower increase of 0.1% in 2013 compared to the sales increase in the same period of time, because some low value consumption goods, such as tools, which were acquired in previous years were still being used in 2013. The wear and tear costs for tools in the workshops booked in accounting increased in a slower pace compared to the pace of increase of our sale.
