Management Commentary:

"Volcon is the most exciting and fastest growing company I've ever been involved with, having grown from just two founders in mid 2020, to a now publicly traded company listed on the NASDAQ." said Jordan Davis, Volcon's CEO. "The response to our official launch has been overwhelming and a confirmation to all of us that now is the time to be an electric vehicle manufacturer in the off-road powersports industry. The excitement has carried over to the press, where we've received solid coverage and great reviews from some of the top publications in the industry.

"Over the next five years, we know the move from internal combustion engines to electric will be dramatic and our five year goal is to become the largest off-road 100% dedicated EV powersports manufacturer in this space. Being a young, ambitious, fast-moving company gives us a strategic advantage in the marketplace as bigger companies tend to move much slower when having to pivot to new or emerging technologies. This is reflected by our success in having gone from an idea for the Grunt in 2020, to shipping production units to customers in September of 2021."

Davis continued, "As we begin to grow our nationwide dealer network, which we just announced on November 8, 2021, off-road enthusiasts will now have the opportunity to see, touch, and feel our vehicles first-hand to appreciate the level of quality our products have. As well, our vehicles and accessories will be sold globally in a planned three-phase rollout to include Latin America in 2021, Canada, Europe, and Africa in 2022, Southeast Asia and Australia in 2023. Another exciting announcement that we recently made is that we've partnered with Martin Technologies to bring our automotive-industry expertise to our electric side-by-side UTV program for the Stag. They will be providing chassis and peripheral component development for the all-electric UTV, including working with us on the battery, power electronics systems, vehicle integration methodologies, and new eSPDM Smart Wiring Technology."

"As we continue to grow, it's of the utmost importance to us that we meet the needs and expected quality of our customers. As such, we launched the Volcon Center of Excellence, which focuses on building an environment and culture of continuous improvement through lean methodologies and mindset. We identified a huge opportunity to build in continuous improvement not only in process and procedure, but into who we are as a company. It's widely known and accepted that lean, kaizen, and continuous improvement environments lead to improved quality and profitability, not to mention a level of customer satisfaction we believe will eclipse that of our competitors. These activities, along with a number of other key projects launched during the quarter, have positioned us well in the pursuit of our strategic goals."

Q3 highlights include:

• First Grunt delivery to customers: On September 15, 2021, Volcon delivered its first Grunts to customers
• IPO: Volcon completed its IPO on October 8, 2021 and sold 3.025 million shares of common stock and raised over $15 million after expenses and commissions to underwriters and raised an additional $1.1 million October 29, 2021 after the underwriter exercised their overallotment option to sell an additional 226,875 shares of common stock
• Continuous Improvement: Sustaining engineering group kicked off a project to reduce Grunt production costs in an effort to increase profitability of the product and improve the stability of the supply chain
• Retail: Opened a pop-up store in Denver, Colorado to show the first production Grunt units to the public, later taking keys for the future flagship store in the heart of Denver's RiNo district
• Financial Results: The Company's revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $75K. The Company's net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $5.9 million and $25.3 million, respectively, and loss per share was $2.55 and $11.95, respectively
• Adjusted EBITDA: The Company's adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was a loss of $4.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 is defined as net loss before: interest expense of $42K and $67K, depreciation and amortization expense of $71K and $135K, and stock-based compensation expense of $849K and $14.3M, respectively

We believe presenting adjusted EBITDA provides management and investors consistency and facilitates period to period comparisons of operations, as it eliminates the effects of certain variations unrelated to our overall performance.
