NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS |
Name Change
Effective April 5, 2022, Triccar, Inc. changed its name to Correlate Infrastructure Partners Inc. (“CIPI” or the “Company”) to better reflect its operations.
Nature of the Business
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries Correlate, Inc. (“Correlate”), a Delaware corporation, and Loyal Enterprises LLC dba Solar Site Design (“Loyal”), a Tennessee limited liability company.
Correlate is a portfolio-scale development and finance platform offering commercial and industrial facilities access to clean electrification solutions focused on locally-sited solar, energy storage, EV infrastructure, and intelligent efficiency measures. Its unique data-driven approach is powered by proprietary analytics and concierge subscription services.
Loyal provides consulting services on acquisitions and project development tools to customers in the commercial solar industry.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has not generated positive cash flows from operations. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent on its ability to develop additional sources of capital, and/or achieve profitable operations and positive cash flows. Management’s plans with respect to operations include aggressive marketing, acquisitions, and raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to pursue its business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can achieve profitability. Management believes that aggressive marketing combined with acquisitions and additional financing as necessary will result in improved operations and cash flow in 2022 and beyond. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and the interim reporting rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments (unless otherwise indicated), necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

CORRELATE INFRASTRUCTURE PARTNERS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The FDIC provides coverage of up to $250,000 per depositor, per financial institution, for the aggregate total of depositors' interest and non-interest-bearing accounts. At June 30, 2022, $97,171 of the Company's cash balances were in excess of FDIC limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant risks.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of unpaid revenues. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts to allow for any amounts that may not be recoverable, which is based on an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Accounts are considered delinquent when payments have not been received within the agreed upon terms and are written off when management determines that collection is not probable. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $90,189, respectively.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Each period, the Company evaluates the estimated remaining useful life of its intangible assets and whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. Management tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
Impairment Assessment
The Company evaluates intangible assets and other long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. This includes but is not limited to significant adverse changes in business climate, market conditions or other events that indicate an asset's carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future cash flows the asset is expected to generate. If the cash flows used in the test for recoverability are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.
The Company evaluates and tests the recoverability of its goodwill for impairment at least annually during its fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more often if and when circumstances indicate that goodwill may not be recoverable.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the client and is the unit of accounting in Topic 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. Determining relative standalone selling price and identifying separate performance obligations require judgment. Contract modifications may occur in the performance of the Company’s contracts. Contracts may be modified to account for changes in the contract specifications, requirements or duration. If a contract modification results in the addition of performance obligations priced at a standalone selling price or if the post-modification services are distinct from the services provided prior to the modification, the modification is accounted for separately. If the modified services are not distinct, they are accounted for as part of the existing contract.
The Company’s revenues are derived from contracts for consulting and engineering, procurement and construction services (“EPC”). These contracts may have different terms based on the scope, performance obligations and complexity of the engagement, which may require us to make judgments and estimates in recognizing revenues.
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time (for defined milestones). The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the contract and the nature of the services to be provided.
The Company’s contracts for consulting services are typically less than a year in duration and require us to a) assist the client in achieving certain defined milestones for milestone fees or b) provide a series of distinct services each period over the contract term for a pre-determined fee for each period. When contractual billings represent an amount that corresponds directly with the value provided to the client, revenues are recognized as amounts become billable in accordance with contract terms.
The Company’s contracts for EPC services are typically less than a year in duration and require us to a) provide engineering services and b) obtain and install materials to agreed-upon specifications. The Company recognizes revenues as materials are transferred to the client and as performance obligations are satisfied.
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, and debt and are accounted for under the provisions of ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments”. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, with the exception of discounted debt, as reflected in the balance sheets approximates fair value.
Commitments and Contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties and other sources are recorded when management assesses that it is probably that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonable estimated.

CORRELATE INFRASTRUCTURE PARTNERS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Income Taxes
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes," the Company provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
In addition, the Company’s management performs an evaluation of all uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s income tax returns to determine whether the income tax positions meet a “more likely than not” standard of being sustained under examination by the applicable taxing authorities. This evaluation is required to be performed for all open tax years, as defined by the various statutes of limitations, for federal and state purposes. If the Company has interest or penalties associated with insufficient taxes paid, such expenses are reported in income tax expense.
FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) computations.
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
The Company had
potential additional dilutive securities outstanding at June 30, 2022 except for the options and warrants detailed at Note 5.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
During the period ended June 30, 2022, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any litigation that the Company believes could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Executive Employment Agreements
On January 18, 2022, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Channing Chen, CFO, providing for an annual salary of $200,000 per year. As part of the agreement, the Company issued Mr. Chen options exercisable at $ per share for years. The options, valued at approximately $ , vest monthly over 36 months upon issuance.

NOTE 4 – DEBT |
Notes Payable
On May 29, 2020, Loyal received a $20,400 Economic Injury Disaster Loan through the Small Business Administration. The note bears interest at 3.75% until maturity in March 2050. The note requires $100 monthly payments beginning in May 2022 until maturity.
On January 11, 2022, the Company entered into a 10% note agreement with P&C Ventures, Inc. totaling $1,485,000, including an additional issuance discount of $135,000.

In connection with the note agreement, the Company issued P&C Ventures, Inc., 2,700,000 warrants exercisable at $0.25 per share (Note 5). The warrants were fully vested at issuance and expire on July 11, 2023. The warrants, valued at approximately $1,958,000, represented approximately 59% of the total consideration received and resulted in an additional discount on the note totaling $799,128 pursuant to ASC 470-20-30. The discount is being amortized over the life of the note with a discount balance of $505,986 at June 30, 2022.

Through our true tech-enabled project development and financing platform, we provide portfolio energy optimization and clean energy solutions for sustainable profit growth in buildings nationwide and bring project financing where needed.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, and through August 12, 2022, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
All other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed not to be relevant to us, hence are not expected to have any impact once adopted.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes from the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2022, the Company had a cash balance of $414,940, as compared to a cash balance of $252,189 at December 31, 2021. The Company incurred negative cash flow from operations of $1,337,249 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to negative cash flow from operations of $42,961 in the prior year. The increase in negative cash flow from operations was primarily the result of increased compensation costs for additional employees beginning during the current period, added legal and professional fees primarily related to the Company’s growth, acquisition and capital raising plans, inventory purchases and prepaid expenses. Cash flows from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, totaled $1,500,000 and were the result of proceeds from a loan agreement (see Footnote 4) and $150,000 from the issuance of our common stock. Going forward, the Company expects capital expenditures to increase significantly as operations are expanded pursuant to its current growth plans. The Company anticipates the requirement to raise significant debt or equity capital in order to fund future operations.
Loan Agreement
On January 11, 2022, the Company entered into a 10% note agreement with P&C Ventures, Inc. in the amount of $1,485,000, pursuant to which we received proceeds of $1,350,000. The note requires quarterly interest payments with the principal due at maturity on January 11, 2023.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s revenues totaled $236,690 and $1,584, respectively. The increase of $235,106, or 14,843%, was driven by the Company increasing operations during the current period coupled with the negative impacts of the COVID pandemic during the prior period. We anticipate the Company’s revenues in upcoming quarters to increase as revenues are recognized on projects in progress, including the $1,114,000 in customer deposits, and as we begin projects in our current pipeline.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2022, totaled $42,744 compared to a gross profit of $729 in the comparable prior year period. The $42,015 increase in gross profit was due to the Company’s increased operations and its growth plans. We anticipate future gross margins to increase from the current level as we commercialize new project sales opportunities, increase revenues, cover more fixed costs within cost of sales and expand our margins.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, our operating expenses increased to $1,444,794 compared to $4,937 for the comparable period in 2021. The increase of $1,439,857, or 29,165%, was primarily driven by higher legal and professional fees and greater compensation expenses associated with added strategic management and staff commencing during the period ended June 30, 2022. The increased legal and professional fees were incurred primarily in connection with the Company’s acquisition and capital raising programs. Compensation expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 included approximately $327,000 and $179,000 in salaries and wages and the non-cash expenses from stock-based compensation, respectively, compared to no similar expenses in the comparable period in 2021. Additionally, the Company incurred non-cash operating expenses from depreciation and amortization and shares issued for services totaling $15,160 and $500,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to no similar non-cash operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2021. We anticipate future operating expenses to increase with the expansion of operations, resulting in increased expenses related to wages and compensation, advertising, and insurance partially offset by added contribution margins from anticipated revenue growth.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Other Expenses totaled $299,280, compared to $-0- in the comparable period in 2021. This increase in Other Expenses was due to $37,623 in added interest expense and $261,657 in amortization of debt discount incurred during 2022. We anticipate our Other Expenses to increase as the Company incurs interest from debt and related financing costs to expand its operations.
The activities above resulted in a net loss of $1,701,330 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021
For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s revenues totaled $305,098 and $9,235, respectively. The increase of $295,863, or 3,204%, was driven by the Company increasing operations during the current period coupled with the negative impacts of the COVID pandemic during the prior period. We anticipate the Company’s revenues in upcoming quarters to increase as revenues are recognized on projects in progress, including the $1,114,000 in customer deposits, and as we begin projects in our current pipeline.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022, totaled $42,038 compared to a gross profit of $5,519 in the comparable prior year period. The $36,519 increase in gross profit was due to the Company’s increased operations and its growth plans. We anticipate future gross margins to increase from the current level as we commercialize new project sales opportunities, increase revenues, cover more fixed costs within cost of sales and expand our margins.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our operating expenses increased to $2,218,322 compared to $13,234 for the comparable period in 2021. The increase of $2,205,088, or 16,662%, was primarily driven by higher legal and professional fees and greater compensation expenses associated with added strategic management and staff commencing during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increased legal and professional fees were incurred primarily in connection with the Company’s acquisition and capital raising programs. Compensation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included approximately $606,000 and $330,000 in salaries and wages and the non-cash expenses of stock-based compensation, respectively, compared to no similar expenses in the comparable period in 2021. Additionally, the Company incurred non-cash operating expenses from depreciation and amortization and shares issued for services totaling $30,320 and $500,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to no similar non-cash operating expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2021. We anticipate future operating expenses to increase with the expansion of operations, resulting in increased expenses related to wages and compensation, advertising, and insurance partially offset by added contribution margins from anticipated revenue growth.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Other Expenses totaled $498,506, compared to $-0- in the comparable period in 2021. This increase in Other Expenses was due to $70,364 in added interest expense and $428,142 in amortization of debt discount incurred during 2022. We anticipate our Other Expenses to increase as the Company incurs interest from debt and related financing costs to expand its operations.
The activities above resulted in a net loss of $2,674,790 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: Our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, at June 30, 2022, such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
