Note 1 - Business Organization, Nature of Operations
 
Energous Corporation (f/k/a DvineWave Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 30, 2012 (inception). The Company is a development stage technology company focused on developing a solution to delivering a wire-free charging system, as a means of providing convenient, adaptive wireless power charging capabilities to low power fixed and mobile devices, such as mobile phones, tablets, toys, videogame controllers, watches, remote controls, smoke alarms, window covering deployment and retraction motors, installed sensors and night and emergency lighting fixtures that use or are capable of using a rechargeable battery. The Company is targeting both consumer and commercial enterprise markets that use such rechargeable fixed and mobile devices.
 
On January 2, 2014, the board of directors and stockholders approved the name change for the Company to Energous Corporation from DvineWave Inc.
 
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had not yet completed the development of its product and had not yet recorded any revenues. Since inception, the Company’s primary activities have consisted of developing its business plan, raising capital, recruiting and hiring its executive team and developing its technology. To date, these activities have been funded primarily through the sale of Senior Secured Convertible Notes (“Convertible Notes”) (See Note 6, Private Placement) and funding of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), which was consummated on April 2, 2014 (See Note 10 – Subsequent Events).
 
The Company is considered to be in the development stage, and as such, the Company’s condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) topic 915, “Development Stage Entities.” The Company is subject to all of the risks associated with development stage companies.
 
Effective March 26, 2014, pursuant to authority granted by the stockholders and the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company implemented a 1-for-3.99 reverse split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Split”). All share and per share information in this Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.
