Explanatory Note


The Company relied on the Securities and Exchange Commissions Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions From Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318) (the Order) to delay the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (the 2020 10-Q) due to the circumstances related to COVID-19. In particular, COVID-19 caused disruptions in the Companys normal interactions with its auditors. In the past the Company has provided its auditors with full access to work papers and related information. Historically, personnel from the audit firm worked onsite, making whatever copies of materials they deemed necessary in order to complete their review of the 2020 10-Q. Because the audit personnel were working remotely as much as possible, and relying on the Company to scan work papers and other documents, the Companys ability to file the 2020 10-Q prior to its due date was delayed.

Notes to the Financial Statements

March 31, 2020

 (Unaudited)


Note 1.

Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. (formerly Pierre Corp.) (Fourth Wave or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the 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 Companys Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2019, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted.


On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc.


Significant Accounting Policies


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of short-term instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and short-term notes approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. The long-term debt approximate fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates.

 

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 on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements, defined as follows:

 

Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

 

Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

 

Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value


Fair Value Measurements

 

The Companys assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy.

 

The following table presents information about the Companys liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the Companys estimated level within the fair value hierarchy of those assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Convertible debt


The Company records a beneficial conversion feature related to the issuance of convertible debts that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates. The beneficial conversion feature for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds as an increase in additional paid-in capital and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features. The beneficial conversion feature will be accreted by recording additional noncash interest expense over the expected life of the convertible notes.

  

Beneficial Conversion Features


If the conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (BCF). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.


Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt under ASC 470, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments under ASC 815. The Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40-35-12 to determine the order in which each convertible instrument would be evaluated for derivative classification.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives.






Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.


Reclassification

 

Certain reclassifications may have been made to our prior years financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or accumulated deficit.


Note 2.

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2020 the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Companys ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.


Note 3.

Related Party Transactions


Effective April 30, 2019, the Company agreed to increase compensation to the President of the Company to $11,500 per month for management services if funds are available or to accrue such amount if funds are not available.  The agreement is verbal and can be cancelled at any time. Accounts payable related party are the fees earned but not yet paid of $70,913 and $104,623 at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.


Fees earned during the period are as follows:

Note 4.  

Notes Payable


On January 15, 2020, the Company converted $20,000 in advances from an unrelated third party into a promissory note. The unsecured note bears an interest rate of 8% and matures on January 15, 2021.


During the three months period ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company received advances of $0 and $47,900, respectively, from unrelated third parties. The advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no specific terms for repayment and payable on demand. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the advances totaled $329,900 and $332,900, respectively.


Note 5.

Convertible Notes Payable and Derivative Liability


On April 25, 2019, the Company borrowed $30,000 from an unrelated third party. The unsecured loan had an original issuance discount of $2,500 plus an additional $2,500 to pay for transaction fees of the lender, which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 9% and was due and payable on October 25, 2019 and is currently past due. If a default notice is received the interest rate will be 18%.  The unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion price of 50% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $28,112 which was recorded as a discount on the note payable and a day one loss on the derivative liability of $9,362. In addition, the note holder was issued 25,000 shares of common stock with a relative fair value of $6,250 which was recorded





as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the note. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loan, net of unamortized discount of $0, is $30,000.


On June 4, 2019, the Company borrowed $55,000 from an unrelated third party. The unsecured loan had an original issuance discount of $5,000 which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 10% and is due and payable on March 4, 2020 and is currently past due. If a default notice is received the interest rate will be 20%. At any time on or before December 1, 2019 the Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 20% to 40%. After December 1, 2019, the Company may not repay the loan without the consent of the lender. At any time after December 1, 2019, the unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 65% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $33,615 which was recorded as a discount on the note payable. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loan, net of unamortized discount of $0, is $55,000.


On September 9, 2019, the Company borrowed $30,000 from an unrelated third party. The unsecured loan had an original issuance discount of $2,500 plus an additional $2,500 to pay for transaction fees of the lender, which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 9% and is due and payable on March 9, 2020  and is currently past due. If a default notice is received the interest rate will be 18%. The Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 5% to 25% and accrued interest. The unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 50% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $31,581, of which $20,291 was recorded as a day one loss on the derivative liability and an additional $11,290 was recorded as a discount on the notes payable. In addition, the note holder was issued 25,000 shares of common stock with a relative fair value of $13,710 which was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the note. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loan, net of unamortized discount of $0, is $30,000.


On November 14, 2019, the Company borrowed $85,000 from an unrelated third party. The unsecured loan had an original issuance discount of $20,000, which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 9% and is due and payable on May 14, 2020. The Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 5% to 25% and accrued interest. The unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 50% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $89,071, of which $24,071 was recorded as a day one loss on the derivative liability and an additional $65,000 was recorded as a discount on the notes payable. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loan, net of unamortized discount of $20,549, is $64,451.


On January 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement for up to $120,000 in debt financing from an unrelated third party. The loan had an original issuance discount of $10,500, which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 10% and is due and payable on January 22, 2021. The Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 5% to 25% and accrued interest. The unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 45% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock during the 25 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. As of March 31, 2020, the Company received $40,000 with original issuance discount of $5,000 from the first tranche of the note. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $50,164, of which $15,164 was recorded as a day one loss on the derivative liability and an additional $35,000 was recorded as a discount on the notes payable. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loan, net of unamortized discount of $32,548, is $7,452


During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $164,000.  The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 8% per year, and are due and payable on February 15, 2021. At the option of the holder, the notes can be converted into shares of the Companys common stock.  The number of shares of the Companys common stock which will be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the amount to be converted by $0.25. Due to the other variable convertible notes, these fixed convertible notes are treated as derivatives due to possibility of insufficient shares available at conversion to settle the notes. The day one derivative liability was $81,686 and recorded as a discount on the notes payable. As of March 31, 2020, the balance on the loans, net of unamortized discount of $72,063, is $91,937.






As of March 31, 2020, the total derivative liability on the above notes was adjusted to a fair value of $320,196. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, $79,967 of the discount was amortized leaving an unamortized balance of $125,160. The fair value of the conversion option was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions during the period: fair value of stock $0.12 - $0.55, volatility of 50% - 59% based on a comparable company peer group, expected term of 1.00 years, risk-free rate of 0.17% - 1.56% and a dividend yield of 0%.

Subsequent Events


In March 2020 the Director General of the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. We are still assessing the impact COVID-19 may have on our business, but there can be no assurance that this analysis will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business sentiment generally.  The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and global efforts to contain its spread will impact our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, and include the duration, severity and scope of the pandemic and the actions taken to contain or treat the COVID-19 pandemic.

Overview


Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references in this Form 10-Q to we, us, our, our company, Fourth Wave or the Company refer to Fourth Wave, Inc (formerly Pierre Corp.).


We were incorporated in Nevada on January 21, 2011.  Since our incorporation, we have attempted to become involved in a number of business ventures, all of which were unsuccessful and which we have abandoned.


Low Voltage, Solar Powered, Energy Efficient Buildings


Solar Energy Overview


Solar power is energy from the sun that is converted into thermal or electrical energy. Solar energy is the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source available. Solar technologies can harness this energy for a variety of uses, including generating electricity, providing light or a comfortable interior environment, and heating water for domestic, commercial, or industrial use.


There are three main ways to harness solar energy: photovoltaics, solar heating and cooling, and concentrating solar power. Photovoltaics generate electricity directly from sunlight via an electronic process and can be used to power anything from small electronics such as calculators and road signs up to homes and large commercial businesses. Solar heating and cooling (SHC) and concentrating solar power (CSP) applications both use the heat generated by the sun to provide space or water heating in the case of SHC systems, or to run traditional electricity-generating turbines in the case of CSP power plants.


Solar energy is a very flexible energy technology: it can be built as distributed generation (located at or near the point of use) or as a central-station, utility-scale solar power plant (similar to traditional power plants). Both of these methods can also store the energy they produce for distribution after the sun sets, using new solar and storage technologies.


In the last decade alone, solar has experienced an average annual growth rate of 48%. Thanks to strong federal policies like the solar Investment Tax Credit, rapidly declining costs, and increasing demand across the private and public





sector for clean electricity, there are now nearly 78 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity installed nationwide, enough to power 14.5 million homes.


The cost to install solar has dropped by more than 70% over the last decade, leading the industry to expand into new markets and deploy thousands of systems nationwide. Prices as of Q4 2019 are at their lowest levels in history across all market segments. An average-sized residential system has dropped from a pre-incentive price of $40,000 in 2010 to roughly $18,000 today.


Solar has ranked first or second in new electric capacity additions in each of the last years. In 2019, 40% of all new electric capacity added to the grid came from solar, the largest such share in history.  Solars increasing competitiveness against other technologies has allowed it to quickly increase its share of total U.S. electrical generation - from just 0.1% in 2010 to more than 2.5% todayHomeowners and businesses are increasingly demanding solar systems that are paired with battery storage. While this pairing is still relatively new, the growth over the next five years is expected to be significant. By 2025, more than 25% of all behind-the-meter solar systems will be paired with storage, compared to under 5% in 2019. 


The residential solar market experienced a record year in 2019 as costs continued to fall and solar expanded into more state markets. While California had its strongest year ever due to the emergence of solar + storage as a remedy for disruptive power shutoffs, emerging markets also enjoyed strong growth. Future growth is expected across the country as prices continue to fall and combined solar + storage systems become increasingly viable.


Major U.S. corporations, including Apple, Amazon, Target, and Walmart are investing in solar and renewable energy at an incredible rate. Through 2018, the top corporate solar users in America have installed more than 7,000 megawatt of capacity across more than 35,000 different facilities across the country.


Fourth Wave Energy


On March 16, 2020 we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. for 6,200,000 restricted shares of our common stock.


Fourth Wave has designed an energy system which is based on combining solar power and other energy efficient technologies into one fully integrated system.  The Fourth Wave energy system is designed to significantly reduce energy consumption and associated carbon emissions in residences and commercial buildings.


The Fourth Wave energy system:


·

is powered by solar photovoltaics and is managed with direct current advanced energy management controls, and


·

uses:

°

advanced battery storage systems;

°

efficient HVAC via ground-source energy;

°

LED lighting

°

solar energy for hot water heating, and

°

geothermal heat

·

can be customized for new building construction and to retrofit existing structures.


Fourth Wave plans to build five pilot projects, including one in its office/warehouse in San Jose and one in Dallas and use these pilot projects as showcases for its technology.


In connection with this acquisition we entered into consulting agreements with certain founders of Fourth Wave.  The consulting agreements require us to collectively pay $385,000 in consulting fees during the terms of the consulting agreements, all but one of which expire between May 31 and June 30, 2020.  One consulting agreement is for a twelve month period and expires in January 2021.


On May 7, 2020 we entered into an agreement giving us an option to acquire approximately 19 undeveloped acres of land in Arvada, Colorado. If the option is exercised, we plan to build homes, townhomes, and condominiums on the property. If the option is exercised, we will pay $8,500,000 for the property.


The residences will be designed to use the energy system described above.






As of the date of this filing, Fourth Wave had not generated any revenue.


Critical Accounting Policies


Use of Estimates and Assumptions


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and (ii) the reported amount of expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.


These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of costs and expenses during the reporting period.  Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to three months ended March 31, 2019.


General and administrative expenses totaled $3,203,521 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $47,655 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Operating expenses in 2020 and 2019 include legal and accounting costs, depreciation, and management fees.  The increase in operating expenses during the period ended March 31, 2020 is due to the change in our business plan which resulted in increased stock based compensation, advertising, consulting, legal and accounting fees as well as increased management fees and travel costs.


Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, was $3,307,709 and $47,655, respectively.

Going Concern


The unaudited financial statements accompanying the report have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that our company will be able to meet our obligations and continue our operations for our next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and the financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2020, we have had no revenue and have not yet achieved profitable operations and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.


There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business

Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the direction and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching its desired disclosure control objectives. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
