Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Incorporation and Nature of Operations

Energy and Water Development Corp. (the “Company” or “EAWD”) was originally incorporated as a Delaware corporation named Wealthhound.com, Inc. in 2000 and was converted to a Florida corporation under the name Eagle International Holdings Group Inc. on December 14, 2007.

On March 10, 2008, the Company changed its name to Eurosport Active World Corporation and on March 17, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with Inko Sport America, LLC (“ISA”), a privately-held Florida limited liability company wherein all of the certified owners of ISA exchanged their ownership interests in ISA for shares of the Company. In connection with the closing of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company adopted ISA’s business plan and the Company’s registered directors were elected to their positions. This transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein ISA was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. ISA was administratively dissolved in September 2010.

In September 2019, the Company changed its name to Energy and Water Development Corp. to more accurately reflect the Company’s purpose and business sector and the Company has registered its logo “EAWD” with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the European Union Intellectual Property Office and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to secure its corporate identity. 

To ensure the Company is positioned to service its growing business in one of the EU’s most environmentally progressive countries, the Company has a branch registered to conduct business in Germany and two wholly-owned German subsidiaries: Energy and Water Development Deutschland GmbH (“EAWD Deutschland”) and EAWD Logistik GmbH (“EAWD Logistik”).

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EAWD and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp. and 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. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC.

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 the 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 disclosures contained in the audited financial statements of Energy and Water Development Corp. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, have been omitted.

 Foreign currency translation

The United States dollar (“USD”) is the Company’s reporting currency. The Company has two subsidiaries located in Germany. The net sales generated, and the related expenses directly incurred from the operations, if any, are denominated in local currency, Euro (“Euro”). The functional currency of the subsidiaries is generally the same as the local currency.

Assets and liabilities measured in Euros are translated into USD at the prevailing exchange rates in effect as of the financial statement date and the related gains and losses, net of applicable deferred income taxes, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in its balance sheets. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 the Company used a spot rate of 1.09 and an average rate of 1.08 when converting EURO to USD. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases (“ASC 842”). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable.

Cash

The Company considers short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has $33,770 and $40,866 cash as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. A reserve is established if necessary to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets include prepaid inventory, purchase deposits, miscellaneous prepaid expenses, value added tax receivable, and a security deposit.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset’s estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property and Equipment are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any revenue.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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 a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 – Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

The application of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10-35, our derivative liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $60,110 and $184,025, respectively and measured on Level 3 inputs.

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred cost and deferred revenue have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

Loss Per Common Share

The Corporation accounts for earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10, “Earnings Per Share”, which establishes the requirements for presenting earnings per share (“EPS”). FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10 requires the presentation of “basic” and “diluted” EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS amounts are calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the exercise of all stock options, warrants and convertible securities having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the periods, using the treasury stock method. When a loss from operations exists, potential common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would result in an anti-dilutive effect on per share amounts.

As discussed more fully in Note 10, convertible note holders have the option of converting their loans into common shares subject to the terms and features offered by the specific convertible notes. Some note holders were also granted purchase options to purchase additional shares subject to the features of each purchase option. If the convertible note holders of unexercised convertible notes exercised their conversion feature and the additional purchase options, they would represent 0 and 0 in additional common shares as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The potential shares from both the conversion feature and the rights to purchase additional shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive.

Related Party Transactions

A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. A related party is generally defined as:

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Corporation’s future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments” and ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief” which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842),” which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered small reporting companies (“SRC”) as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC, implementation is not needed until January 1, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Going Concern

The Company has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $25,667,514 as of June 30, 2023. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Corporation incurred net losses of $619,515 and $1,329,541. The Company had a working capital deficit of $872,866 as of June 30, 2023.

The Company’s ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

Management expects sales operations to continue to expand. If necessary, the Company will need to raise additional funds during 2023. Management of the Company intends to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities or debt, credit lines or advances from suppliers. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 5. Accounts Receivable

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accounts receivable was $52,761 and determined to be fully collectible.

Note 9. Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses and Accounts payable – Related Party

Significant components of accounts payable and accrued expenses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company owed Virhtech GmbH, a related party of the Company, $6,427 and $27,029, respectively, for services performed for the Company and is classified as accounts payable – related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 10. Convertible Loans Payable

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of convertible loans payable net of discount was $67,458 and $73,664, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued one convertible loan in the aggregate amount of $178,000. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and all matured within one year. The conversion features in the note met the definition of a derivative and required bifurcation and liability classification, at fair value. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the date of issuance was $175,025 and was recorded as a discount of the notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company issued two convertible loans in the aggregate amount of $404,000. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and all mature within one year. On October 21, 2021, the Maturity Date of the $304,000 loan was extended from March 25, 2022 to April 21, 2022. The embedded beneficial conversion features in the notes meet the definition of a derivative and requires bifurcation and liability classification, at fair value. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the date of issuance was $746,672 and was recorded as a discount of the notes. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the remaining balance of these loans was fully repaid or converted.

Derivative Liability

The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion options and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.

Based on the various convertible notes described above, the fair value of applicable derivative liabilities on notes and change in fair value of derivative liability are as follows as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

A summary of quantitative information with respect to valuation methodology and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s derivative liabilities that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is as follows:

The foregoing assumptions are reviewed quarterly and are subject to change based primarily on management’s assessment of the probability of the events described occurring. Accordingly, changes to these assessments could materially affect the valuations.

Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the balance sheet under Derivative liability – warrants and derivative liabilities:

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Office services are contracted for on a month-to-month basis in this address. In October 2020, the Company established its official registered branch in Hamburg Germany; the office address until March 31, 2021 was Offakamp 9f- 2.17. On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into two lease agreements for a workshop located at Industriestraße 17, 25462 Relligen and an office located at Ballindam 3 20095 Hamburg, Germany.

The Company notified the landlord for one of its operating leases in May 2023 to effectively terminate the lease on June 30, 2023 as a precaution to the vague language used in the lease agreement. In response to the notification, the landlord has sought September 30, 2023 as the final date of the lease and demanded additional compensation for the early termination of the lease and for damages to the rental space. The Company may seek potential litigation against the landlord for demanding additional compensation that the Company does not believe the landlord is entitled to.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Corporation may be a defendant in pending or threatened legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its business. While the outcome and impact of currently pending legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Corporation’s management and legal counsel believe that the resolution of these proceedings through settlement or adverse judgment will not have a material adverse effect on its operating results, financial position or cash flows.

Litigation

EAWD vs Packard and Co-Defendant Nick Norwood – Case number 18-031011 CA-01 Miami-Dade County Circuit Court. The Company is demanding the proof of payment for shares issued in 2008. The parties are currently scheduled to participate in non-binding arbitration.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed financial statements and the notes to those condensed financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

RESULTS of OPERATIONS

Results of Operations for the Three Months ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months ended June 30, 2022

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense increased by $110,376 to $545,615 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $435,239 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in professional fees of $19,710, marketing fees of $8,484, travel and entertainment expenses by $10,241 and other general and administrative expenses of $173,615, offset by a decrease in officer’s salaries of $101,674.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense decreased by $25,900 to $72,975 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to other expense of $98,875 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in other expense is the result of an increase of other income of $91,540, offset by an increase in interest expense of $45,156 and increase in the change in fair value derivative liability of $20,484.

Net Loss

Net loss increased by $85,401 to $619,515 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $534,114 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was attributable to the net increases and decreases as discussed above.

Results of Operations for the Six Months ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Six Months ended June 30, 2022

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense increased by $172,445 to $1,050,796 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $878,351 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in professional fees of $50,388, travel and entertainment expenses by $3,693 and other general and administrative expenses of $266,409, offset by a decrease in officer’s salaries of $78,278, and decrease in marketing fees of $69,767.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense increased by $263,347 to $277,820 of other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to other expense of $14,473 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in other expense is the result of a decrease in the change in fair value derivative liability of $233,544 and an increase in loss on settlement of liabilities of $196,159, offset by a decrease in interest expense of $31,619 and a decrease in other expense of $134,737.

Net Loss

Net loss increased by $436,717 to $1,329,541 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $892,824 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was attributable to the net increases and decreases as discussed above. 

LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had $33,770 cash and negative working capital of $872,866 as of June 30, 2023. Our operating and capital requirements in connection with supporting our operations will continue to be significant. Since inception, our losses from operations and working capital requirements have been satisfied through the deferral of payment for services performed by our founders and related parties discussed more fully below.

We have sustained operating losses since our operations began. As of June 30, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $25,667,514. The Company cannot predict how long it will continue to incur further losses or whether it will ever become profitable as this is dependent upon the reduction of certain expenses and success in obtaining more project contracts, among other things. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued one convertible loan in the aggregate amount of $178,000. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and all matured within one year. The conversion features in the note met the definition of a derivative and required bifurcation and liability classification, at fair value. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the date of issuance was $175,025 and was recorded as a discount of the notes.

We have satisfied our cash and working capital requirements in the three months ended June 30, 2023, through the sale of common stock.

Comparison of Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 (2023) and June 30, 2022 (2022)

Net cash used in operating activities

We used $708,974 of cash in our operating activities in 2023 compared to $1,024,258 used in 2022. The decrease in cash used of $315,284 is primarily due to a decrease in stock based compensation of $138,600 and a decrease in foreign currency loss of $134,869 offset by an increase in net loss of $436,717, increase in amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs of $23,498, increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $36,490, increase of non-cash lease expense of $37,352, decrease in change in fair value derivative liability of $233,544, increase in imputed interest on related party loans of $3,305, increase in loss on settlement of $196,159, as well as a decrease in cash used by working capital items of $495,122 principally related to a decrease in inventory of $278,021, a decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred taxes of $137,333, an increase in due to officers of $124,650 and a decrease in due to related party of $68,673, offset by an increase in deferred costs of $12,326, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $63,877 and an increase in operating lease liabilities, current and non-current of $37,352. 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The Company used $38,730 in cash from investing activities in 2023 as compared to $79,289 in 2022.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

The Company received $726,938 (2023) and $591,000 (2022) in cash provided from financing activities. The net increase of $135,938 is due to $569,700 of proceeds from sale of stock and proceeds from subscriptions of $168,800, offset by payments made on finance lease liabilities of $11,562.

Financial Position

Total Assets – As of June 30, 2023 the Company had $1,229,049 of total assets representing $33,770 in cash, $52,761 in accounts receivable, $469,972 in inventory, $300,916 in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $346,869 in property and equipment, and $24,761 in operating lease right-of-use asset.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

We expect to generate more revenues which should, grow in time and lead to a positive cash flow. In the near future, we expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through sales contracts, lines of credit, convertible loans and/or further issuances of other securities in sufficient quantities that we will be able to meet our working capital requirement from these possible sources. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt will result in dilution to our current shareholders.

We seek to focus on three main aspects of the water and energy business: (1) generation, (2) supply, and (3) maintenance. We seek to assist private companies, government entities and NGO’s to build profitable and sustainable supplies/generation capabilities of water and energy as required, by selling them the required technology or technical service to enhance their productivity/operability. With its outsourced technical arm and its commission-based global network of vendors, the Company expects to create sustainable added value to each project it takes on while generating revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies; as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

Through our BlueTech Alliance for Water Generation, established in December 2020, we have state-of-the-art technology partners, technology transfer agreements, and technology representation agreements in place relating to aspects of renewable energy and water supply. These unique key relationships offer important selling features and capabilities that differentiated EAWD from its competitors.

The Company plans to generate revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies, as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

MATERIAL COMMITMENTS

Employment Agreements

The Company entered into employment agreements with each of Irma Velazquez, its Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman of the Board, and Ralph Hofmeier, its Chairman of the Board and Chief Technology Officer, effective August 4, 2022 (together, the “Executive Employment Agreements”). Under the Executive Employment Agreements, the Company agreed to pay each of Ms. Velazquez and Mr. Hofmeier an annual base salary of €200,000, which is approximately $210,000 per year with discretionary cash and equity bonuses available based on the Board’s assessment of the executive’s performance against applicable performance objectives as well as Company performance. Any increase to the annual base salary is subject to approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. The foregoing descriptions of the Executive Employment Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of each agreement filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC.

The Company also entered into employment agreements with 4 other employees, effective during the 3rd quarter of 2021. In 2022, The Company dismissed two employees to upgrade these positions as technical assistants.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

GOING CONCERN

The next operational step to accomplish is to achieve sufficient sales volume to yield positive net income. Due to the timing of the project build out, the Company has currently recorded limited revenue and consequently has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $25,667,514 as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Corporation incurred net losses of $1,329,541. The Company also had a working capital deficit of $872,866 as of June 30, 2023.

The Company’s ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

At the filling date of this report, management is working to conclude the sales in Germany and in other regions of the world relating to the previously approved proposals, which would bring a growing revenue. Managements plans to expand the sales operations by greater market penetration of the agricultural, industrial and community development markets with its innovative water and energy generation solution. Management also plans to raise additional funds during 2022 through the issuance of equity securities, from deposits related to customer purchase orders, and, if necessary, loans from management and third-party lenders. Management also plans to reduce expenses by centralizing the assembly, logistics and administrative operations of the Company into a larger, self-sufficient, off-grid location that will be able to house the storage of supplies and inventory, as well as provide space for assembly and administrative operations. The Company is also planning to acquire its own electric vehicles to reduce its supply transportation costs.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

ADDRESSING CHALLENGES POST-COVID-19

COVID-19 is an incomparable global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry and has caused the worst global economic contraction of the past 80 years (IMF) and the current war in Ukraine has also caused significant changes in consumer behavior and purchasing patterns, supply chain routing, the dynamics of current market forces, and government oversight and intervention. Disruptive activities could include the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes, restrictions on the export or shipment of our products, significant cutback of ocean container delivery from Germany, business closures in impacted areas, and restrictions on our employees’ and consultants’ ability to travel and to meet with customers. The extent to which COVID-19 or the war in Ukraine impacts our results will depend on future developments, which still uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the current conflict as well as virus variants and the actions to contain it or treat its impact, among others. COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine could also continue to result in social, economic and labor instability in the countries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate.

If workers at one or more of our offices or the offices of our suppliers or manufacturers become ill or are quarantined and in either or both events are therefore unable to work, our operations could be subject to disruption. Further, if our manufacturers become unable to obtain necessary raw materials or components, we may incur higher supply costs or our manufacturers may be required to reduce production levels, either of which may negatively affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In light of these challenges, the Company is focusing its efforts on supporting key areas of our business that will help us to stabilize in the new environment and strategize for what comes next. Those key areas are: crisis management and response, workforce, operation and supply chain, finance and liquidity, tax, trade and regulatory, as well as strategy and brand.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our critical accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 to the condensed financial statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements as discussed in Note 3 to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) as of December 31, 2022. This evaluation was carried out by our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Finance Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Finance Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses, which have caused management to conclude that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective:

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We intend to implement changes to strengthen our internal controls in addition to the enhanced controls discussed above. We are in the process of implementing a remediation plan for the identified material weaknesses and we expect that work on the plan will continue throughout 2023, as financial resources permit. Specifically, to address the material weaknesses arising from insufficient accounting personnel, the Company hired a part-time Chief Financial Officer and has secured the services of additional accounting personnel on a consulting basis which begins to address segregation of duties. The Company is currently formalizing its policies and procedures in writing and improving the integration of its financial and reporting system into non accounting departments. Where appropriate, the Company receives advice and assistance from third-party experts as it implements and refines its remediation plan.

Additional measures may be necessary, and the measures we expect to take to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that such material weakness or other material weaknesses would not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Management’s conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective means that if a fraud or material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements were to occur; there is a reasonable possibility that they will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
