Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2021,2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 15, 2022.17, 2023. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with those financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2021,2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Going Concern

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with GAAP which contemplate the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. To date the Company has generated a total of $68,453 in revenue from its operating activities and has accumulated losses of $9,828,366$11,897,147 since inception. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due and ultimately upon its ability to achieve profitable operations. To date the Company has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock

Uncertainty due to Global Outbreak of Covid-19

In March of 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of COVID-19 Global pandemic. The COVID-19 has impacted vast array of businesses through the restrictions put in place by most governments internationally, including the federal, provincial, and municipal governments, regarding travel, business operations and isolation/quarantine orders.

While the extent of the impact is unknown, the COVID-19 outbreak may hinder the Company’s ability to raise financing fornew capital sufficient to fund its researchcommitments and development initiatives or operating costs due to uncertain capital markets, supply chain disruptions, increased government regulationsongoing losses, and other unanticipated factors, all of which may also negatively impact the Company’s business and financial condition.ultimately on generating profitable operations.

Uncertainty due to Global Outbreak of COVID-19

In March of 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of COVID-19 Global pandemic. The COVID-19 has impacted vast array of businesses through the restrictions put in place by most governments internationally, including the federal, provincial, and municipal governments, regarding travel, business operations and isolation/quarantine orders. At this time, the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company and its operations is unknown and will greatly depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and that cannot be predicted with confidence. These uncertainties arise from the inability to predict the ultimate geographic



spread of the disease, and the duration of the outbreak, including the duration of travel restrictions, business closures or disruptions, and quarantine/isolation measures that are currently, or may be put, in place world-wide to fight the virus. While the extent of the impact is unknown, the COVID-19 outbreak may hinder the Company’s ability to raise financing for its research and development initiatives or operating costs due to uncertain capital markets, supply chain disruptions, increased government regulations and other unanticipated factors, all of which may also negatively impact the Company’s business and financial condition.

We plan on using our in-house developed Duesenberg SMART System as part of itsthe Duesenberg EV’s operating system.

 

On January 8, 2021, Duesenberg Nevada signed an agreement with Rocket Supreme, the Barcelona, Spain automotive design house established by Christopher Reitz. The agreement is the first step towards creating a network of suppliers required to successfully complete the Duesenberg EV development project. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have received initial ergonomics exterior and interior data sheets and CAS IGES files as well as the initial drafts of the exterior and interior designs for the Duesenberg EV. We expect the final design of the first Duesenberg EV to be released in mid to late 2022.2023. Based on the initial drafts, we commenced negotiations with various manufacturers required to continue the development and manufacturing of the required components for the Duesenberg’s EV. Majority of current work is being outsourced to Hampshire Automotive Sdn Bhd (“Hampshire Automotive”), an entity related to the Company, who has already established necessary connections with suppliers and other manufacturers required for manufacturing of the Heritage Vehicles.

 

On May 21, 2021, we formed Duesenberg Heritage LLCLLC. under the laws of the State of Nevada (“Duesenberg Heritage”). Duesenberg Heritage’s operations will be focused on reproducing very limited Duesenberg heritage vehicles, the Duesenberg Model J and Boat Tail series, which were originally manufactured in the 1920s and 1930s; such as1930s. The Company is currently in the Duesenberg Model Jinitial stage of its prototype development and Boat Tail series. The Company expects that the manufacturepre-production of the heritage vehicles from that era (as well as possibly converting them to electrical models) will commence during Fiscal 2023. The pre-production process is expected to be time consuming and wouldwill require highly specialized and skilled tradesman. In order to facilitate this, the management is actively looking to engage or hire qualified consultants, and for the ways to finance the process.

 

In order to support the development and future production of Duesenberg EV or New Energy Vehicles (“NEV”) as well as Duesenberg Heritage vehicles, we will require significant financing. During the year ended October 31, 2021,2022, we closed two private placement financings by issuing a total of 11,113,152 shares of our common stock (the “Shares”) for gross proceeds of $673,000,$1,567,184.  During the three-month period January 31, 2023, we raised an additional $28,290 as part of the $50,000 financing which closed on February 24, 2022, we closed a private placement financing for an additional $502,392.17, 2023. The Shares were issued pursuant to the provisions of Regulation S of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) to the persons who are not residents of the United States and are otherwise not “U.S. Persons” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S of the Act. The funds we have raised in the above financings are not sufficient to bring our Duesenberg EV and Duesenberg Heritage vehicle production plans to completion, and we will require additional funding. We cannot assure the reader that we will be successful in securing the further funding as required.

restructuring of the payroll to our CSO, Brendan Norman, who, as of December 1, 2022, agreed to switch from payroll to consulting, and to reduce his fees from $15,000 per month to $5,000 per month. Our accounting fees increased by $16,765 to $23,304 for the three-month period ended January 31, 2023, and were associated with increased audit and review fees we incurred due to increased complexity of our business operations.

Other Items

 

During the three months ended January 31, 2022,2023, we recorded $1,448 (2021$2,447 (2022 - $4,572)$1,448) in interest expense and $2,142$3,286 in realized foreign exchange loss (2021(2022 - $4)$2,142) associated with the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates between the US, Canadian, Malaysian, and Hong Kong currencies.

This loss was in part offset by $7,042 in debt that was forgiven by one of our vendor. We did not have similar transactions during the three-month period ended January 31, 2022.

 

Translation to Reporting Currency

 

Changes in translation to reporting currency result from differences between our functional currencies, being the Canadian dollar for the parent Company, Malaysian Ringgit for Duesenberg Malaysia, and Hong Kong Dollar for Duesenberg Evolution, and our reporting currency, being the United States dollar. These differences are caused by fluctuation in foreign exchange rates between the four currencies as well as different accounting treatments between various financial instruments.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

GOING CONCERN

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. We started generating operatinghave generated only minimal revenue in the third quarter of our fiscal 2020, however, this revenue is not sufficient to support our operating expenses, and/or to enable usfrom operations since inception, have never paid any dividends and are unlikely to pay dividends therefore, it is unlikely that we will be in position toor generate significant earnings or to pay dividends to our shareholders in the immediate or foreseeable future. Our continuation as a going concern depends upon the continued financial support of our shareholders and management, our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations.

 

Based onupon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods. At January 31, 2022,2023, we had a working capital deficit of $1,327,881$998,815 and accumulated losses of $9,828,366$11,897,147 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate significant revenues in the future. Our unaudited condensedThe consolidated financial statements included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Therefore, we may be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements.

Net cash provided by financing activitiesFebruary 17, 2023.

 

During the three-month period ended January 31, 2022, we received $14,220 in the form of vendor payments made by Mr. Lim on behalf of the Company.

During the three-month period ended January 31, 2021, we received $82,992 under loan agreements with Hampshire

Avenue. The loans bear interest at 4% per annum, are unsecured and payable on demand. In addition, we borrowed

$14,000 from a third-party under 4% demand notes payable.

 

Capital Resources

 

Our ability to continue the development and marketing of the Duesenberg Applications, SMART Systems, Duesenberg WeChat Application, as well as commencement of the development of Duesenberg EV and Duesenberg



Heritage vehicles, is subject to our ability to obtain necessary funding. We expect to raise funds through sales of our debt or equity securities. We have no committed sources of capital. If we are unable to raise funds as and when we need them, we may be required to curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

 

As of January 31, 2022,2023, we had cash on hand of $2,381$47,362 and working capital deficit of $1,327,881,$998,815, which raises substantial doubt about our continuation as a going concern. Subsequent to January 31, 2022, we closed a private placement financing for net proceeds of $502,392, however, these funds will not be sufficient to complete our current business plans, and we will require additional financing.

We plan to mitigate our losses in future years by controlling our operating expenses and actively seeking new distribution channels for our Duesenberg products, Duesenberg EV, and Duesenberg Heritage Vehicles. We cannot provide assurance that we will be successful in generating additional capital to support our development. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and no non-consolidated, special-purpose entities.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the United States generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2021.2022. The following accounting policies have been determined by our management to be the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operation:

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. On consolidation, the Company eliminates all intercompany balances and transactions.

 

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction

 

The Parent Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar, Duesenberg Malaysia’s functional currency is Malaysian Ringgit, and Duesenberg Evolution’s functional currency is Hong Kong dollar. Duesenberg Nevada and Duesenberg Heritage functional currency is the United States dollar. The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar. The Company translates assets and liabilities to US dollars using year-endperiod-end exchange rates, and translates revenues and expenses using average exchange rates during the period. Gains and losses arising on translation to the reporting currency are included in the other comprehensive income.

 

Foreign exchange gains and losses on the settlement of foreign currency transactions are included in foreign exchange expense. Except for translations of intercompany balances, all translations of monetary balances to the



functional currency at the yearendperiod-end exchange rates are included in foreign exchange expense. The translations of intercompany balances to the functional currency at the yearendperiod-end exchange rates are included in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments include cash, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accruals as well as notes payable and amounts due to related parties. We believe the fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, and amounts receivable.



At January 31, 2022,2023, we had $1,746$2,602 in cash on deposit with a large chartered Canadian bank, $579$44,313 in cash on deposit with a bank in Malaysia, and $56$447 in cash on deposit with a bank in Hong Kong. As part of our cash management process, we perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions. We have not experienced any losses in cash balances and do not believe we are exposed to any significant credit risk on our cash.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. The evaluation was undertaken in consultation with our accounting personnel. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, due to our current size and lack of segregation of duties, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended January 31, 2022,2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
