NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Nature of Operations

Greenway Technologies, Inc. ("GTI" or the "Company") was organized on March 13, 2002 under the laws of the State of Texas as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation.  On August 18, 2009, in connection with a merger with Universal Media Corporation, a privately held Nevada company, the Company changed its name to Universal Media Corporation ("Universal Media").  The company changed its name to UMED Holdings, Inc. on March 23, 2011 and to Greenway Technologies, Inc. on June 23, 2017.

The Company’s mission is to operate as a holding company through the acquisition of businesses as wholly-owned subsidiaries that meet some key requirements: (1) solid management that will not have to be replaced in the near future (2) the ability to grow with steady growth to follow and (3) an emphasis on emerging core industry markets, such as energy and metals.  It is the Company's intention to add experienced personnel and select strategic partners to manage and operate the acquired business units.  

In September 2010, the Company acquired 1,440 acres of placer mining claims on Bureau of Land Management land in Mohave County, Arizona. See discussion in Note 3.  Due to the Company not producing any revenues from its BLM mining leases since its acquisition of the leases, achieving a position of producing cash flow levels to fund the development of its BLM mining leases in December of 2010 and not having current resources for an appraisal, we recognized an impairment charge of $100,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014.

In August 2012, the Company acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., which two owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary process and related technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (syngas). Syngas is an important intermediate gas used by industry in the production of ammonia, methane, liquid fuels, and other downstream products. The company’s unique process is called Fractional Thernal Oxidation™ (FTO). When combined with Greenway’s proprietary Fisher-Tropsch system, Greenway offers a new economical, relatively small scale (125 to 2,500 bbls/day) method of converting natural-gas-to-liquid (GTL) not previously achievable.

 NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.   

 The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities:

 Going Concern Uncertainties

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained a loss of approximately $6.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 and has a working capital deficiency of approximately $1.7 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $21 million at June 30, 2017. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations or on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.

The company is in discussions with several oil and gas companies and other organizations regarding joint venture funding for its first gas-to-liquid (GTL) plant using the company’s unique GTL system. Should an agreement be made, the joint venture relationship will provide funding at a level of $20 to $50 million with an ongoing profit-sharing arrangement between the Company and the partner organizations and/or individuals with an economic profile previously not achievable in the GTL industry segment. While there are no assurances that financing for the first GTL plant will be obtained on acceptable terms and in a timely manner, the failure to obtain the necessary working capital may cause the Company to move in one or more alternative directions to shepherd this revolutionary GTL system into production. Several alternative paths are under development in conjunction with the joint venture/profit sharing approach.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Property & Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment."  An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate.  If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value.  If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has not, to date, generated significant revenues.  The Company plans to recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 605-10") which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments ("ASC 605-25"). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing 605-25 on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not significant. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes," which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements.  The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  Open tax years, subject to IRS examination include 2013 – 2016.

Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted

Basic loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants (314,733) have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.  They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

See Note 6 below for discussion regarding convertible notes payable and a warrant agreement.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2008, fair value measurements are determined by the Company's adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities, as permitted. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows: 

Level 1 – Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Valuation based on, observable inputs (other than level one prices), quoted market prices for similar assets such as at the measurement date; quoted prices in the market that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management's best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

Original Issue Discount

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company provides the debt holder with an original issue discount ("OID").  An OID is the difference between the original cash proceeds and the amount of the note upon maturity. The Note is originally recorded for the total amount payable. The OID is amortized into interest expense pro-rata over the term of the Note.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation of the Company's notes recorded at fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs, which consider (i) time value, (ii) current market and (iii) contractual prices.

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, notes payable and other payables, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The following table represents the Company's assets and liabilities by level measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2017:

 The following assets and liabilities are measured on the balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis utilizing significant unobservable inputs or Level 3 assumptions in their valuation. The following tables provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liabilities:

The change in the notes payable at fair value for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 is as follows:

All gains and losses on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are recognized in other interest income and expense in the accompanying financial statements.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation ("ASC 718-10") which requires that all share-based payments to both employees and non-employees be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.  

At June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any issued or outstanding stock options.

Concentration and Credit Risk

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions.  At times, such deposits may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development ("ASC 730-10"). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $337,932 and $259,671 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

Issuance of Common Stock

The issuance of common stock for other than cash is recorded by the Company at market values.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT 

NOTE 5 – TERM NOTES PAYABLE

Term notes payable consisted of the following at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

May 2016 Convertible Note

On May 4, 2016, the Company issued a $224,000 convertible promissory note bearing interest at 10.0% per annum to an accredited investor, payable beginning November 10, 2016, in monthly installments of $44,800 plus accrued interest and a cash premium equal to 10.0% of the installment amount.  The convertible promissory note was paid on March 4, 2017.  The holder had the right under certain circumstances to convert the note into common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to 70% of the average of the 3 lowest volume weighted average trading prices during the 20-day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date. 

The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible note in accordance with ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity's Own Equity, and concluded that the Convertible Note resulted in a derivative. The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible note and concluded that there was a beneficial conversion feature since the convertible note was convertible into shares of common stock at a discount to the market value of the common stock. The discount related to the beneficial conversion feature on the note was valued at $224,000 based on the Black Scholes Model. The discount related to the beneficial conversion feature ($51,829) was amortized over the term of the debt (10 months).  For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized interest expense of $9,327 related to the amortization of the discount.

In connection with the issuance of the $224,000 note, the Company recorded debt issue cost and discount as follows:

 NOTE 9 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Shareholders have made advances to the Company in the amounts of $0 and $124,414 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The shareholders have elected to convert advances of $0 and $51,500 to shares of common stock at market value ($.08 per share) and received repayments of $59,690 and $23,087 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of net operating losses ("NOL") carry forwards for federal and state income tax purposes.  These losses are available for future years and expire through 2033.  Utilization of these losses may be severely or completely limited if the Company undergoes an ownership change pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382.  

The provision for income taxes for continuing operations consists of the following components for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016:

A comparison of the provision for income tax expense at the federal statutory rate of 34% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 the Company's effective rate is as follows:

The net deferred tax assets and liabilities included in the financial statements consist of the following amounts at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

The change in the valuation allowance was $6,275,481 and $2,018,074 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively.  The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset for the loss from operations, interest expense, interest income and other income subsequent to the change in ownership, which amounted to $20,751,686 and $14,476,205 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. 

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, historical taxable income including available net operating loss carry forwards to offset taxable income, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.

In August 2012, the Company acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (syngas). Based on a new, breakthrough process called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (FTO), the company’s G-Reformer™, combined with an additional proprietary FT technology, offers an economical and scalable method to converting natural gas to liquid fuel.

On June 26, 2017, the Company, in conjunction with the University of Texas Arlington (UTA), revealed that it had successfully demonstrated its gas-to-liquid (GTL) technology at the Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA proving the viability of the GTL system. The Company now plans to commercialize the system and related technology and is in discussions with several oil and gas companies, and other individuals and organizations regarding joint venture funding for its first gas-to-liquid (GTL) plant using the company’s proprietary processes. Should an agreement be made, the joint venture relationship will provide funding at a level of $20M to $50M with an ongoing profit-sharing arrangement between Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. and the partner.

The company’s technology is unique in that it allows for plants with a smaller footprint, versus legacy technologies, combined with lower up-front and ongoing costs.

One of several important applications for GIE’s technology is the harvesting of stranded natural gas. There is an abundance of stranded natural gas located throughout the United States with no practical way to transfer the gas to existing distribution systems for sale. This valuable energy resource sits untapped, unused, or more harmfully, is vented to the atmosphere. GIE’s technology allows this valuable energy resource to be harvested and monetized.

GIE’s breakthrough patented GTL system offers a solution to this energy challenge. The company’s system allows for relatively small by comparison, scalable plants to be deployed at geographically dispersed locations to convert natural gas into synthetic fuel that is transportable and can be sold directly to markets without the need for additional processing at a refinery.

Mining Interest

In December 2010, the Company acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of restricted common stock.  Early indications, from samples taken and processed, gives the Company reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the 1,440 acres is significant, but actual mining and processing will determine the ultimate value realized.  The Company is currently seeking funding of $500,000 to begin certified assaying, to determine the viability of continued development of the mining claims.

The weighted-average number of shares used in the earnings per share for the basic and dilutive computation was 272,735,459 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 189,516,705 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

The Company had no revenues from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.  We reported net operating losses during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 of $6,275,481 and $734,007, respectively.

The following table summarizes operating expenses and other income and expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016: 

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, general and administrative costs consisted primarily of management fees of $276,000, consulting fees of $118,450, rent expense of $17948, accounting fees of $8,700, legal expenses of $110,573, transfer agent of $7,840, professional fees of $12,853, directors and officers insurance of $14,427, meals and travel of $29,065 and stock based compensation of $5,238,938.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, is summarized in the following table for the six months ended June 30:

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Our general business strategy is to first seek capital to construct the first portable GTL Unit and then explore and research its existing mining lease properties.  As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we sustained a net operating loss of $6,275,481 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and have a cumulative deficit of $20,751,686 at June 30, 2017. Although we have managed our liquidity during the six months ended June 30, 2017 through the sale of common stock, shareholder advances and notes payable, our ability to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on our ability to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations.

We currently are evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of new capital, or (ii) issuance of debt instruments.  This process is ongoing and may be lengthy and has inherent costs.  There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate the Company’s 12 month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.

We project that approximately $52 million of capital will be needed for all aspects of our business development. We project a need of $48 million to build the first portable GTL Unit, $500,000 for our mining exploration plan, and $3,500,000 for general and administration.   Further, until there is a fuller assessment of the mining property, we cannot determine the capital requirements and our operating budgets, if it is decided to pursue full exploration and development. We also will be subject to environmental expenses in connection with these activities.  We will also have the expense of maintaining and defending any patents obtained, our claims, and seeking further patents and claims to be able to garner enough area to make our operations more viable, once we have shown appropriate mineral deposits present in our claims, if at all.  After building the first GTL Unit and determining the commercial feasibility of the mining claims, we will need substantial capital to build additional GTL Units, develop the mining claims, acquire plant and equipment and hire personnel.

We intend to seek equity and revenue participation and debt forms of capital. We have no firm arrangements for any capital at this time.  Additionally, equity capital for small companies generally and small companies in the oil and gas and mining segments in particular, have a difficult time competing for investors because of the high risk at this stage of development and the fact that the investment is long term.  The markets for the transportation fuel and metals that the company believes may be derived from the GTL Units and from its mining claims also influences investment decisions, such that if there is strong demand, then funds may be relatively more available, but if market demand is not strong or the price of transportation fuels and the metals declines, funding may be unavailable. Additionally, the capital demands of the oil and gas industries present competition for funds for companies in the metals segment.  The failure to obtain the necessary working capital would have a material adverse effect on the business prospects and, depending upon the shortfall, the Company may have to curtail or cease its operations.

Commitments

Employment Agreements

In May 2011, the Company entered into employment agreements with its chief executive officer, president and chief financial officer.  The Agreements were for a term of 5 years ending May 31, 2016.  During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company expensed a total of $150,000 in expense and accrual as management fees in accordance with the terms of these agreements. 

In August 2012, the Company entered into employment agreements with the president and chairman of the board of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. for a term of 5 years with compensation of $90,000 per year. In June of 2014, the president's employment agreement was amended to increase his annual pay to $180,000.  On March 31, 2015, accrual on the Greenway chairman of the board agreement was ceased due to his absence from the company for more than a year. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company expensed a total of $90,000 in expense and accrual, respectively.

Leases

In October 2015, the Company entered into a two-year lease for approximately 1,800 square feet a base rate of $2,417 per month. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company expensed $17,948 and $19,053, respectively, in rent expense.

Mining Leases

Our minimum commitment for 2017 is approximately $11,000 in annual maintenance fees, which are due September 1, 2017.  Once the Company enters the production phase, royalties owed to the BLM are equal to 10% of production.

Financing

Our financing has been provided by advances from shareholders and by issuing shares of its common stock in various private placements to related parties and individuals.  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements, unconsolidated subsidiaries and commitments or guaranties of other parties.

Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained a loss of $6.3million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 and has a deficit of $21 million at June 30, 2017. Our financial statements include a statement that unless, we obtain financing or generate revenues, there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.  We do not have any current firm prospects for obtaining financing. To meet these objectives, the Company continues to seek other sources of financing in order to support existing operations and expand the range and scope of its business. However, there are no assurances that any such financing can be obtained on acceptable terms and timely manner, if at all.  The failure to obtain the necessary working capital would have a material adverse effect on the business prospects and, depending upon the shortfall, the Company may have to curtail or cease its operations.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

To date, we have financed our operations from the sale of restricted common stock, advances from shareholders and debt financing.

We believe that the effect of inflation has not been material during the six-months ended June 30, 2017.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies are identified in our Annual Form 10-K filed on April 17 2017 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations   under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies.” There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable for small reporting company.

Item 4T: Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Internal  control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f)  promulgated under the Exchange  Act as a process  designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's  principal executive officer and principal financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and  includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In June 2017, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in "Internal Control -- Integrated Framework," issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO II) of the Treadway Commission.  Based upon this assessment, we determined that our internal control over financial reporting are ineffective.

The  matters  involving  internal  controls  and  procedures  that our management considers to be material weaknesses under COSO II and SEC rules are: (1) lack of a functioning  audit committee and lack of independent  directors on our board of  directors,  resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;  (2) inadequate segregation of  duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting  and financial reporting with respect to the requirements  and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;  and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting  processes.  The aforementioned potential material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of June 30, 2017 who communicated the matters to our management and board of directors. 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.   However, the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of independent directors on our board of directors resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can impact our financial statements.

Management's Remediation Initiatives

Although we are unable to meet the standards under COSO II because of the limited funds available to a company of our size, we are committed to improving our financial organization. As funds become available, we will undertake to: (1) create positions to segregate duties  consistent with control  objectives,  (2) increase our personnel resources and technical  accounting  expertise within the accounting  function (3) appoint one or more  outside  directors to our board of directors  who shall be appointed to a Company   audit   committee  resulting in a fully  functioning  audit  committee  who will  undertake  the  oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required  internal controls and procedures;  and (4) prepare and implement  sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial  reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.  However, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or 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.  The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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.  Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.
