NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Hour Loop, Inc. (“Hour Loop” or the “Company”) is a technology-enabled consumer products company that uses machine learning and data analytics to design, develop, market and sell products. Hour Loop predominantly operates through online retail channels such as Amazon, Walmart, and Hourloop.com. The Company, as an Internet marketplace seller, sells products in multiple categories, including home/garden décor, toys, kitchenware, apparel, and electronics. The Company has only one segment, which is online retail (e-commerce).

The Company was incorporated on January 13, 2015 under the laws of the state of Washington. On April 7, 2021, the Company was converted from a Washington corporation to a Delaware corporation.

In 2019, Hour Loop formed Flywheel Consulting Ltd. (“Flywheel”), a wholly owned subsidiary located in Taiwan, to provide business operating consulting services exclusively to Hour Loop.

Basis of Presentation - The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, we have included all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2024.

HOUR LOOP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Principles of Consolidation - The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hour Loop and Flywheel. All material inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency and Currency Translation - The assets and liabilities of Flywheel, having a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at period-end, with resulting translation gains or losses included within other comprehensive income or loss. Revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average monthly rates of exchange in effect during each period. All of the Company’s foreign operations use their local currency as their functional currency. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in currencies other than the functional currency are included in General and administrative in the consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive income.

The relevant exchange rates are listed below:

	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023		March 31, 2023

Period NTD: USD exchange rate	$	31.950	$	30.655	$	30.400
Period Average NTD: USD exchange rate	$	31.641	$	31.221	$	30.507

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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 these estimates.

Significant estimates, include but not limited to, estimates associated with the collectability of accounts receivable, useful life of property and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, inventory valuation and inventory provision.

Reclassification - Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been reclassified to conform to the current interim review presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on consolidated net earnings, consolidated financial position, or consolidated cash flows. Proposed changes involve presenting foreign currency gain or loss as a General and administrative expense, accrued interest as a current liability, segregating accounts payable into separate categories: accounts payable and credit cards payable and reclassifying inventory allowance, deferred tax assets in the consolidated cash flows.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash. Our cash is held in the bank and covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), subject to applicable limits. Deposits are insured up to $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are comprised of time deposits, money market funds, highly liquid government bonds, corporate debt securities, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and marketable equity securities. Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consisted of cash and money market funds. Such amounts are recorded at fair value.

HOUR LOOP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts receivable are stated at historical cost less allowance for credit loss. On a periodic basis, management evaluates its accounts receivable and determines whether to provide an allowance for credit losses in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326. Credit losses are provided based on a past history of write-offs, collections, current credit conditions, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. The evaluation is performed on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist, primarily based on similar services or products offerings. We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2023. The impact of the adoption was not considered material to the financial statements and primarily resulted in new/enhanced disclosures only. A receivable is considered past due if the Company has not received payments based on agreed-upon terms. The Company generally does not require any security or collateral to support its receivables. The collection is primarily through Amazon and the collection period is usually less than 7 days. The Company performs on-going evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for credit losses as the Company deems necessary or appropriate. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not deem it necessary to have an allowance for credit loss.

Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold - The Company’s inventory consists mainly of finished goods. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is principally determined on a first-in-first-out basis. The Company’s costs include the amounts it pays manufacturers for product, tariffs and duties associated with transporting product across national borders, and freight costs associated with transporting the product from its manufacturers to its warehouses, as applicable. The merchandise with terms of FOB shipping point from vendors was recorded as the inventory-in-transit when inventory left the shipping dock of the vendors but not yet reached the receiving dock of the Company. Management continually evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related to merchandise inventory.

The “Cost of revenues” line item in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations is principally inventory sold to customers during the reporting period.

Policy for inventory allowance: The Company writes down the cost of obsolete and slow-moving inventories to the estimated net realizable value, based on inventory obsolescence trends, historical experience, forecasted consumer demand and application of the specific identification method. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $637,058 and $675,886, respectively, was written down from the cost of inventories to their net realizable values. Full inventory allowance is recorded for the inventory SKU not sold for more than one year.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset using the straight-line method. The Company elected to expense any individual property and equipment items under $2,500.

The majority of the Company’s property and equipment is computers, and the estimated useful life is 3 years.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets- In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-17, if the carrying amount of an asset or asset group (in use or under development) is evaluated and found not to be fully recoverable (the carrying amount exceeds the estimated gross, undiscounted cash flows from use and disposition), then an impairment loss must be recognized. The impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s (or asset group’s) fair value. The Company did not record any impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

HOUR LOOP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Leases - Leases are classified at lease commencement date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease is a finance lease if it meets any of the following criteria: (a) the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term, (b) the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise, (c) the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset, (d) the present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset or (e) the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. When none of the foregoing criteria is met, the lease shall be classified as an operating lease.

The Company typically utilizes operating leases for its office space requirements. This means that the Company leases office space, categorizing the lease arrangement as an operating lease. Under this arrangement, The Company does not hold ownership of the leased assets but instead pays rent for the right to use them.

For a lessee, a lease is recognized as an operating lease right-of-use asset with a corresponding liability at lease commencement date. The lease liability is calculated at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid by using the lease term and discount rate determined at lease commencement. The operating lease right-of-use asset is calculated as the lease liability, increased by any initial direct costs, and prepaid lease payments, reduced by any lease incentives received before lease commencement. The operating lease right-of-use asset itself is amortized on a straight-line basis unless another systematic method better reflects how the underlying asset will be used by and benefits the lessee over the lease term.

Fair Value Measurement - Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, due to related parties and short-term debt at fair value or cost, which approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company held cash equivalents in a money market fund, Dreyfus Government Cash Management. The value of the money market fund was $1,677,426 and $101,510 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. These funds were classified as Level 1 assets within the fair value hierarchy and accounted for at fair value.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:

	i.	Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

	ii.	Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

	iii.	Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue Recognition - The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”). The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 as of January 1, 2019. The standard did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial position, or cash flows. There were no changes to the timing of revenue recognition as a result of the adoption.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, which provided a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers as follows:

	●	Identify the contract with a customer.

	●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

	●	Determine the transaction price.

	●	Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

	●	Recognize revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine whether it is appropriate to record platform fees paid to Amazon as an expense or as a reduction of revenue. Platform fees are recorded as sales and distribution expenses and are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company as principal owns and controls all the goods before they are transferred to the customer. The Company can, at any time, direct Amazon, similarly, other third-party logistics providers (“Logistics Providers”), to return the Company’s inventories to any location specified by the Company. It is the Company’s responsibility to make any returns made by customers directly to Logistics Providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk. Further, the Company is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), establishes prices of its products, can determine who fulfills the goods to the customer (Amazon or the Company) and can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time. Based on these considerations, the Company is the principal in this arrangement.

The Company derives its revenue from the sale of consumer products. The Company sells its products directly to consumers through online retail channels. The Company considers customer order confirmations to be a contract with the customer. For each contract, the promise to transfer products is identified as the sole performance obligation. Transaction prices are evaluated for potential refunds or adjustments, determining the net consideration expected. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were recognized at a point in time. Customer confirmations are executed at the time an order is placed through third-party online channels. For all of the Company’s sales and distribution channels, revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment date. As a result, the Company has a present and unconditional right to payment and record the amount due from the customer in accounts receivable.

HOUR LOOP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The customer can return the products within 30 days after the products are delivered and estimated sales returns are calculated based on the expected returns. The rates of sales returns were 5.53% and 7.25% of gross sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

From time to time, the Company offers price discounts on certain selected items to stimulate the sales of those items. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration for which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods. Consistent with this policy, the Company reduces the amount of these discounts from the gross revenue to calculate the net revenue recorded on the statement of operations.

A performance obligation, defined as the promise to transfer a distinct good, is the unit of account in ASC Topic 606. The Company treats shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, not separate performance obligations. Costs for shipping and handling were $5,705,385 and $5,037,251 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, recorded as selling and marketing expenses.

Segment Information – The Company has only one segment, which is online retail (e-commerce).

The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer of the Company who reviews financial information of separate operating segments based on U.S. GAAP. The chief operating decision maker now reviews results analyzed by customers. This analysis is only presented at the revenue level with no allocation of direct or indirect costs. Consequently, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.

Income Taxes - Income tax expense includes U.S. (federal and state) and foreign income taxes.

The Company also complied with state tax codes and regulations, including with respect to California franchise taxes. Management has evaluated its tax positions and has concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that could require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements to comply with provisions set forth in ASC section 740, Income Taxes.

Deferred tax assets represent amounts available to reduce income taxes payable in future periods. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe they will not be realized. We consider many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of our deferred tax assets, including recent cumulative loss experience and expectations of future earnings, capital gains and investment in such jurisdiction, the carry-forward periods available to us for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.

Presentation of Sales Taxes - Governmental authorities impose sales tax on all of the Company’s sales to nonexempt customers. The Company collects sales tax from customers and remits the entire amount to the governmental authorities. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted from revenues and cost of revenues.

The Company assesses sales tax payable including any related interest and penalties and accrues these estimates on its financial statements. Pursuant to the Wayfair decision, each state enforces sales tax collection at different dates. The Company collects and remits sales tax in accordance with state regulations. The Company estimates that as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, it owed $288,466 and $288,466, respectively, in sales taxes along with penalties and interest resulting from late filings.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately 99% and 100%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue was through or with the Amazon sales platform.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk - The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk through its foreign subsidiary in Taiwan. The Company does not hedge foreign currency translation risk in the net assets and income reported from these sources.

Advertising and Promotion Expenses – Our policy is to recognize advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising and promotion expenses were $884,000 and $784,266 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies - Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Related Parties - The Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 850 (Related Party Disclosures). A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

Earnings per Share - The Company computes basic earnings per common share using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the period in which the Company reports net losses, diluted net loss per share attributable to stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to stockholders, because potentially dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no dilutive securities or other items that would affect earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Therefore, the diluted earnings per share is the same as the basic earnings per share.

Shares Issued for Services – Stock-based compensation cost for all equity-classified stock awards expected to vest is measured at fair value on the date of grant and recognized over the service period.

Overview

Our Business

We are an online retailer engaged in e-commerce retailing in the U.S. market. We have operated as a third-party seller on www.amazon.com since 2013. We have also sold merchandise on our website at www.hourloop.com since 2013. We expanded our operations to www.walmart.com in October 2020. To date, we have generated practically all of our revenues as a third-party seller on www.amazon.com and only a negligible amount of revenues from our operations on our website at www.hourloop.com and as a third-party seller on www.walmart.com. We manage more than 100,000 stock-keeping units (“SKUs”). Product categories include home/garden décor, toys, kitchenware, apparel, and electronics. Our primary strategy is to bring most of our vendors’ product selections to the customers. We have advanced software that assists us in identifying product gaps so we can keep such products in stock year-round including the entirety of the last quarter (holiday season) of the calendar year. In upcoming years, we plan to expand our business rapidly by increasing the number of business managers, vendors and SKUs.

Business Model

There are three main types of business models on Amazon: wholesale, private label and retail arbitrage. Our business model is wholesale, also known as reselling, which refers to buying products in bulk directly from the brand or manufacturer at a wholesale price and making a profit by selling the product on Amazon. We sell merchandise on Amazon and the sales are fulfilled by Amazon. We pay Amazon fees for allowing us to sell on their platform. Our relationship with Walmart is also similar. We pay Walmart fees for allowing us to sell our merchandise on their platform. As stated above, to date, we have generated only a negligible amount of revenues as a third-party seller on www.walmart.com.

The advantages of selling via a wholesale model:

	●	Purchase lower unit quantities with wholesale orders than private label products.

	●	Selling wholesale is less time intensive and easier to scale than sourcing products via retail arbitrage.

	●	More brands will want to work with us because we can provide broader Amazon presence.

The challenges of selling via a wholesale model:

	●	Fierce competition on listing for Buy Box on amazon.com (as described below).

	●	Developing and maintaining relationships with brand manufacturers.

Market Description/Opportunities

Total U.S. retail sales increased 2% to $7.24 trillion in 2023 from $7.09 trillion in 2022. Consumers spent $1,118.68 billion online with U.S. merchants in 2023, which is around 15.45% of total U.S. retail sales for the year compared to 14.66% in 2022. Amazon accounted for nearly 37.6% of all e-commerce in the United States and that makes Amazon the biggest ecommerce giant currently in the market.

Formation

The Company was founded in 2013 by Sam Lai and Maggie Yu, and we were originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on January 13, 2015. In 2019, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Flywheel Consulting Ltd. (“Flywheel”), to provide business operating consulting services, exclusively to Hour Loop. On April 7, 2021, Hour Loop converted from a Washington corporation to a Delaware corporation. With the vision, leadership, and software development skills of Mr. Lai and Ms. Yu, the Company grew rapidly. From 2013 to 2023, sales grew from $0 to $132,124,202.

Competitive Advantage

Among more than 2 million active third-party sellers on Amazon, we believe we have two main competitive advantages:

	○	First, we have strong operations and sales teams experienced in listing, shipment, advertising, reconciliation and sales. By delivering high quality results and enhancing procedures through the process, our teams are competitive.

	○	Second, we believe our proprietary software system gives us an advantage over our competition. The system is highly customized to our business model; it collects and processes large amounts of data every day to optimize our operation and sales. Through advanced software, we can identify product gaps and keep them in stock all year round.

With respect to our advertising strategy, we advertise those products that we estimate will have greater demand based on our experience. This lets us allocate our advertising budget in a fashion that delivers positive value. We advertise our products on Amazon. We allocate our advertising dollars prudently. This is accomplished by advertising items that deliver the most return for our advertising spending. We monitor the items being advertised by our competitors. On the operations side, we constantly refine our processes based on learnings from historical data. The combination of managing the business operations effectively along with allocating our advertising budget to high value items allows us to grow profitably. In cases where the advertising is fierce, we allocate the spending appropriately. Our strategy for competing with larger competitors is to monitor their pricing and not compete with them when their pricing is low or at a loss. Competitors sell at low prices or at a loss due to a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, their desire to liquidate inventory or achieve short term increase in revenue. During these times, we avoid matching their prices. This strategy allows us to stay profitable.

Our Financial Position

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we generated net revenues of $24,681,122 and $21,067,609, respectively, and reported net income (loss) of $1,065,814 and $(1,235,244), respectively, and cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities of $492,943 and $(3,289,076), respectively. As noted in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, as of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $186,808.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023

Revenues

We generated $24,681,122 in revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $21,067,609 in revenues in the same period in 2023. This represents an increase in revenues of $3,613,513, or 17.15%. We attribute this increase to our continued growth and maturity in our operating model, despite an overall e-commerce traffic slowdown and intense competition. Our total orders in the three months ended March 31, 2024 were approximately 1,123,204, as compared to 912,444 orders in the three months ended March 31, 2023, representing an increase of 23.1%. This surge in orders has played a pivotal role in driving the overall revenue growth. The substantial increase in order quantity indicates a rising demand for our products, leading to a corresponding increase in revenue generated from these sales. As a result, the increase in orders has directly contributed to the overall growth in the Company’s revenues during the period. The 23.1% increase in orders reflects strong customer demand, but our pricing strategy, including competitive pricing pressure and discounts offered during the period, resulted in lower prices for products sold. As a consequence, even with the significant order volume increase, the revenue growth was slightly shy of fully matching this proportion.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $10,228,916, as compared to $11,451,907 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Cost of goods sold includes the cost of the merchandise sold and shipping costs, as well as estimated losses due to damage to goods.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totaled $12,914,034, representing a $1,686,073, or 15.02%, increase from the $11,227,961 of operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This change was caused by an increase in platform fees and fees paid to Amazon. The Amazon fees are proportional to revenues. In 2023, Amazon made strategic adjustments to its Fulfillment by Amazon (“FBA”) fees and costs, which had a direct impact on our operating expenses. The increase in revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2024 over the same period in 2023 drove the increase in platform fees and higher Amazon fees.

Other Expense, net

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $35,234, compared to other expense of $47,941 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Total Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Total comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $1,049,281, as compared with $(1,233,905) for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in total comprehensive loss was attributed to an increase in the Company’s gross revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. We had cash of $2,922,080 and $1,274,791 as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Our primary uses of cash have been for inventory, payments to Amazon related to sales and shipping of products, for services provided, payments for marketing and advertising, and salaries paid to our employees. We have received funds from the sales of products that we sell online. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in changes in our liquidity over the near to long term:

	●	An increase in working capital requirements to finance the rapid growth in our current business;

	●	An increase in fees paid to Amazon and other partners as our sales grows;

	●	The cost of being a public company;

	●	Marketing and advertising expenses for attracting new customers; and

	●	Capital requirements for the development of additional infrastructure.

Since inception, we have generated liquidity from revenues generated by our ongoing business, from debt and from the Company’s initial public offering to fund our operations.

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Cash - end of the period	$	2,922,080		$	1,274,791

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash provided by operating activities amounted to $492,943, as compared to $3,289,076 of cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This was driven by our net income (loss) of $1,065,814 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $(1,235,244) for the same period in 2023.

Despite the increase in revenue to $24,681,122 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $21,067,609 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the revenue increase was offset by a corresponding increase in operating expenses of $1,686,073.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, $17,798 in cash was used in investing activities, compared to $3,379 in cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash used in financing activities amounted to $-0-, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $-0- for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Off-balance sheet financing arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

Except as set forth below, we do not have any long-term capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

Sales Taxes

Pursuant to the Wayfair decision, each state enforces sales tax collection at different dates. We collect and remit sales tax in accordance with state regulations. We estimate that as of March 31, 2024, we owed $288,466 in sales taxes, along with penalties and interest. The Company has made some progress filing historical sales tax returns and targets completion of filings for all jurisdictions in 2024.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts receivable are stated at historical cost less allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, management evaluates its accounts receivable and determines whether to provide an allowance for credit losses in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326, credit losses based on a past history of write-offs, collections, current credit conditions, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. The evaluation is performed on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist, primarily based on similar services or products offerings. We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2023. The impact of the adoption was not considered material to the financial statements and primarily resulted in new/enhanced disclosures only. A receivable is considered past due if the Company has not received payments based on agreed-upon terms. The Company generally does not require any security or collateral to support its receivables. The collection is primarily through Amazon and the collection period is usually less than 7 days. The Company performs on-going evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for credit losses as the Company deems necessary or appropriate. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not deem it necessary to have an allowance for bad debt or doubtful accounts.

The “Cost of revenues” line item in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations is principally inventory sold to customers during the reporting period.

The majority of the Company’s property and equipment is computers, and the estimated useful life is 3 years.

	i.	Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

	ii.	Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

	iii.	Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, which provided a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers as follows:

	●	Identify the contract with a customer.

	●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

	●	Determine the transaction price.

	●	Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

	●	Recognize revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company derives its revenue from the sale of consumer products. The Company sells its products directly to consumers through online retail channels. The Company considers customer order confirmations to be a contract with the customer. For each contract, the promise to transfer products is identified as the sole performance obligation. Transaction prices are evaluated for potential refunds or adjustments, determining the net consideration expected. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 were recognized at a point in time. Customer confirmations are executed at the time an order is placed through third-party online channels. For all of the Company’s sales and distribution channels, revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment date. As a result, the Company has a present and unconditional right to payment and record the amount due from the customer in accounts receivable.

Segment Information – The Company has only one segment, which is online retail (e-commerce).

Income Taxes - Income tax expense includes U.S. (federal and state) and foreign income taxes.

Exhibit 19.1

POLICY ON INSIDER TRADING

HOUR LOOP, INC.

Company “insiders” are subject to individual responsibilities and restrictions in addition to the responsibilities and obligations of the company itself. An “insider” of a company is a person who is a director, officer, contractor, employee, advisor or consultant in possession of nonpublic material information regarding a company, as well as a shareholder owning 5% or more of the company’s stock. If you have been provided with a copy of the Policy on Insider Trading (“Policy”) of Hour Loop, Inc. (“Company”), you are subject to the rules contained herein. Accordingly, as Insiders of the Company, you are subject to restrictions imposed by federal securities laws with respect to purchases and sales of the Company’s shares.

THE BASICS

No person may trade in a company’s securities if the person has material information, which has not yet been publicly disclosed.

Person:

directors, officers, advisors, consultants, contractors and employees at all levels within the Company (and, in addition, persons outside the Company that receive tips from insiders).

Trade:

transactions involving the purchase or sale of company stock, exercise of company options and warrants, puts, calls and other company securities.

Material Info:

information that a reasonable investor would consider important, as part of the total mix of available information, in reaching his or her investment decision.

Publicly Disclosed:

disclosed broadly to the marketplace (such as by a company press releases or an SEC filing) and the investing public has had time to absorb the information fully.

So long as you are an Insider, the rules contained herein apply to:

	●	You;
	●	Your family members who reside with you; and
	●	Any family members who do not live in your household but whose transactions in Company securities are directed by you or are subject to your influence or control (such as parents or children who consult with you before they trade in company securities).

You are responsible for the transactions of these other persons, and therefore, you should make them aware of these procedures and their need to confer with you before they engage in any transaction subject to these procedures. As used in this Policy, “you” or means any individual or entity subject to the policies and procedures described herein.

The consequences of illegal insider trading are severe and can result in civil and criminal liability, as well as disciplinary action by the Company. In addition, a person can be held responsible for the trading violations of others if inside information is passed on, resulting in insider trading by others. Penalties can include:

For Individuals:

	●	Civil penalties up to three times the profit gained or loss avoided (including, in certain circumstances, from persons who “control” the primary violator).
	●	Private remedy against insider trading for benefit of persons who traded in the same securities contemporaneously.
	●	Maximum of 30 years imprisonment.
	●	Fines of up to $5 million for individuals.

For Entities:

	●	Civil penalties of $1,000,000 or three times the profit gained or loss avoided (including, in certain circumstances, from persons who “control” the entity), whichever is greater;
	●	Criminal penalties of up to $25,000,000.

Any of the above consequences would seriously harm the reputation and career of the offender, as well as the Company. The size of a transaction in violation of this Policy has no impact on potential insider trading liability, SEC investigations and lawsuits. Additionally, if the Company concludes an employee has violated this Policy, the Company may dismiss the or commence other disciplinary actions against the violating employee, whether the act was intentional or not.

INSIDER TRADING EXPLAINED

No Trading or Acting on Inside Information

If you are aware of material nonpublic information relating to the Company, you may not, either directly or through family members or other persons or entities:

	●	Buy or sell securities of the Company (other than as explained herein); or
	●	Make a gift of Company securities; or
	●	Engage in any other action to take personal advantage of that information; or
	●	Pass that information on to others outside the Company, including family and friends.

Also, if you learn of material nonpublic information about another company with which the Company does business, including a customer or supplier, you may not trade in the other company’s securities until the information becomes public or is no longer material.

Transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent, personal reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) are not exempted from these rules. The securities laws do not recognize such mitigating circumstances, and, in any event, even the appearance of an improper transaction must be avoided to preserve the Company’s reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct.

When Information Becomes Public

Information is not deemed to become “public” until the information has been disclosed broadly to the marketplace (such as by Company press releases or an SEC filing) and the investing public has had time to absorb the information fully. To avoid the appearance of impropriety, information will not be considered fully absorbed by the marketplace until the third trading day after the day the information has been publicly disclosed.

Examples:

If the Information is Announced:		You May Begin Trading:
Monday		Thursday
Friday		Wednesday
Friday Before a Monday Holiday		Thursday

What Constitutes Material Information

Material information is any information that a reasonable investor would consider important in making a decision to buy, hold, or sell securities. Any information that might reasonably be expected to affect the Company’s stock price, whether it is positive or negative, should be considered material. Some examples of information that would ordinarily be regarded as material are:

	●	Projections of future earnings or losses, or other earnings guidance;
	●	Earnings that are inconsistent with the consensus expectations of the investment community;
	●	A pending or proposed merger, acquisition or tender offer;
	●	A pending or proposed acquisition or disposition of a significant asset;
	●	A change in dividend policy, the declaration of a stock split, or an offering of additional securities;
	●	A change in management;
	●	Development of a significant new product or process;
	●	Impending bankruptcy or the existence of severe liquidity problems;
	●	The gain or loss of a significant customer or supplier; or
	●	Imminent issuance of a new patent

Anyone scrutinizing your transactions will be doing so after the fact, with the benefit of hindsight. As a practical matter, before engaging in any transaction, you should carefully consider how enforcement authorities and others might view the transaction in hindsight.

Whether information is “material” may be difficult to determine. For this reason, you are urged to contact company counsel if you have any questions as to whether any particular information is or is not material.

No Individual Disclosure of Information

You may not disclose information about the Company to anyone outside the Company, including family members and friends, and you may not discuss the Company or its business in an internet “chat room” or similar internet-based forum.

Transactions by Non-Residents

The same restrictions apply regardless of whether a person is resident within the United States.

Other Prohibited Transactions

The Company considers it improper and inappropriate for any director, officer or other employee of the Company to engage in speculative transactions in the Company’s securities or other transactions which might give the appearance of impropriety. A broker or a person whom you deem to be investment savvy, may suggest one of the following, more sophisticated types of transactions; however, they are prohibited. If you are unsure about the type of transaction that has been suggested to you, please contact company counsel. These types of transactions include:

	●	Derivative Securities. This involves transactions with warrants. You may not engage in transactions in puts, calls or other derivative securities based on the Company’s securities.

	●	Hedging Transactions. The best way to understand hedging is to think of it as insurance. When people decide to hedge, they are insuring themselves against a negative event. This doesn’t prevent a negative event from happening, but if it does happen and you’re properly hedged, the impact of the event is reduced. So, hedging occurs almost everywhere, and we see it everyday. For example, if you buy house insurance, you are hedging yourself against fires, break-ins or other unforeseen disasters. Ask your broker or company counsel for details.

	●	Margin Accounts and Pledges. You may not purchase Company securities on margin, or borrow against any account in which Company securities are held, or pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan.

	●	Trading in securities on a short-term basis. Company securities purchased in the open market (i.e., not via obtained via an employee stock option or employee stock purchase plan) should be held for a six-months at minimum. Prior written consent from the Company must be obtained by any employee desiring to sell Company securities that were purchased in the open market and that have not been owned for greater than six months. A written request for such consent from the Company must be requested at least three (3) business days prior to the proposed sale, and cannot be requested more than five (5) days prior to the proposed sale.

Transactions Under Company Plans

Stock Option Exercises. These rules do not apply to your cash exercise of an employee stock option given to you under and in connection with the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan or similar plan from time to time in effect, unless it is a sale of stock that is part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option or any other market sale for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of an option.

Exception for Approved 10b5-1 Plans (See also separate 10b5-1 Plan Policy). Trades by members of the Board of Directors, officers or employees in the Company’s securities that are executed pursuant to an approved 10b5-1 trading plan (a “Trading Plan”) are not subject to the prohibition on trading on the basis of material non-public information contained in this Policy or to the restrictions set forth above relating to pre-clearance procedures and blackout periods.

Federal securities laws allow affirmative defenses from insider trading liability under SEC Rule 10b5-1 for trading plans that meet certain requirements. Insider trading lawsuits may still be brought against individuals trading under such a Trading Plan. This Policy permits individuals to adopt SEC Rule 10b5-1 compliant Trading Plans with brokers for trading of the Company’s securities and the exercise of options upon prior written approval by the Company. The Company may also choose to review a proposed Trading Plan, and reserves the right to reject a Trading Plan if it so chooses.

Revocation/Amendments to Trading Plans. Amendments of a Trading Plan may not occur once a Trading Plan is in Place. Revocations of a Trading Plan may occur upon written notice to the broker, but only if the individual is not aware of any material non-public information of the Company at the time of revocation. However, if the individual terminates the Trading Plan after the first option exercise or stock sale, then the individual must cancel all outstanding Trading Plans and agree not to enter into another Trading Plan until six months after termination of the Trading Plan.

Under certain circumstances, a Trading Plan must be revoked or suspended by the Company. This includes circumstances such as the announcement of a merger or the occurrence of an event that would cause the transaction either to violate the law or to have an adverse effect on the Company. The Company is authorized to notify the broker in such circumstances.

HOW TO TRADE

Pre-Clearance Requirement

While you are subject to these rules, you may not engage in any transaction involving the Company’s securities (including a stock plan transaction such as an option exercise, gift, loan or pledge or hedge, contribution to a trust, or any other transfer) without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from both the Chief Executive Officer and either (a) the General Counsel or (b) the Chief Financial Officer/Principal Financial Officer. A request for pre-clearance should be submitted to one of these persons at least one week in advance of the proposed transaction. The Chief Executive Officer, General Counsel and Chief Financial Officer/Principal Financial Officer are under no obligation to approve a trade submitted for pre-clearance and may determine not to permit the trade, and they will have no liability for any refusal to permit a trade or for any delay in making or communicating a decision.

Quarterly Blackout Periods

The Company’s announcement of its quarterly financial results almost always has the potential to have a material effect on the market for the Company’s securities. Therefore, in order to avoid even the appearance of trading while aware of material nonpublic information, you generally will not be pre-cleared to trade in the Company’s securities during the following periods:

Quarterly Blackout Period Begins:

Seven (7) days prior to the end of the Company’s fiscal quarter.

(The Company’s fiscal quarters end on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year.)

Quarterly Blackout Period Ends:

At the close of trading on the Nasdaq, or any exchange upon which the Company’s stock is listed for trading on the second full trading day following the Company’s filing of its quarterly report with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Event-Specific Blackouts

From time to time, an event may occur that is material to the Company and is known by only a few individuals inside the Company. If you are one of those individuals, or if it would appear to an outsider that you were likely to have had access to information about such an event, then you will not be allowed to trade in the Company’s securities so long as the event remains material and nonpublic.

Also, the Company may on occasion issue interim earnings guidance or other potentially material information by means of a press release, SEC filing on Form 8-K or other means designed to achieve widespread dissemination of the information. You should anticipate that trades are unlikely to be pre-cleared while the Company is in the process of assembling the information to be released and until the information has been released and fully absorbed by the market. The existence of an event-specific blackout will not be announced. If you request pre-clearance of a transaction in the Company’s securities during an event-specific blackout, you will be informed of the existence of a blackout period, but you may not be advised of the reason for the blackout.

If you are made aware of the existence of an event-specific blackout you should not disclose the existence of the blackout to any other person. Whether or not you are designated as being subject to an event-specific blackout you still have the obligation not to trade while aware of material nonpublic information.

The prohibitive rules described herein and imposed by the Company upon you as a term of your employment or retainer cease to apply to your transactions in Company securities upon the expiration of any “blackout period” in existence at the time of the termination of your service as a director, executive officer or employee. Be aware that many of the federal rules may continue to apply to you after the termination of your service with the Company.

COMPANY ASSISTANCE

Compliance with this Policy by all employees is of the utmost importance both for the employee and for the Company. If you have any questions about Insider Trading or its application to any proposed transaction you may obtain additional guidance from the Company’s outside General Counsel (Laura Anthony, Esq.), who can be reached by telephone at (561) 514-0936. Due to the serious consequences of illegal insider trading, we urge you to err on the side of caution and contact our General Counsel with any and all questions regarding this topic. Ultimately, however, the responsibility for adhering to Insider Trading rules and avoiding unlawful transactions rests with you.

AMENDMENTS

Officers of the Company may, from time to time, make non-substantive amendments to this Insider Trading Policy (including, without limitation, substitution of the names of the appropriate contact persons within the Company) without prior approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

All directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries must acknowledge their receipt of, understanding of, and intent to comply with, this Policy. Such acknowledgment must be evidenced by the individual’s signing of the “Acknowledgment” below, whether electronically or in writing. This acknowledgment will constitute each such person’s consent for the Company to issue any necessary stop-transfer orders to the Company’s transfer agent to enforce compliance with this Policy. As a condition of continued employment or engagement all employees (and all other persons, such as consultants or contractors, designated by the Company as subject to this Policy) must periodically acknowledge, electronically or in writing, that they have read and agree to abide by this Policy.

ADOPTED: This 20th day of October, 2021.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I have received and read the Hour Loop, Inc. Insider Trading Policy and I understand and agree to comply with all of the provisions contained therein. I agree that I will be subject to sanctions imposed by the Company, in its discretion, for violation of this policy, including dismissal for cause, and that the Company may give stop-transfer and other instructions to the Company’s transfer agent against transfer of Company securities by me in a transaction that the Company considers to be in contravention of this policy.
