NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2018

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Nature of Operations

Greenway Technologies, Inc. (“Greenway Technologies,” “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 September 23, 2017.

The Company’s primary mission is to operate as a holding company to provide funding for commercializing the proprietary processes and products held by its 100% owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”).

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 revenue from its BLM mining leases since its acquisition of the leases, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $100,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company believes that this investment could be productive if sufficient resources are committed to its development. However, at this time, the Company has made the decision to commit is resources to commercialization of the Gas-To-Liquids (“GTL”) technology owned by GIE.

In August 2012, the Company acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”) which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary process and related technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (syngas), and then to liquid fuels, also known as gas-to-liquids or “GTL” processing. In addition to its usefulness in the GTL process, 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 reforming process is called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (FTO). The Company believes it will be able to offer a new economical, relatively small scale (125 to 2,475 barrels/day) method of converting natural gas into liquid fuels that can be located in field locations where applicable to smaller scale GTL processing requirements. Commercialization of its proprietary reforming and GTL processes are the primary focus of the Company.

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 are 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, 2018. 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, 2017.

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 $.135 million for the three-month and $1.513 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018 and has a working capital deficiency of approximately $3.1 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $25.1 million at September 30, 2018. a working capital deficiency of approximately $3.0 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $25 million at September 30, 2018. 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.

With the successful test of the Company’s G-Reformer® unit and FTO process during the first quarter 2018, the Company has had discussions with a number of oil and gas companies, smaller oil and gas operators and investors regarding potential funding for a commercial scale GTL plant using the Company’s unique GTL system. A commercial GTL plant will include the Company’s proprietary G-Reformer®, a Fischer-Tropsch unit, and all necessary components to develop a fully functional GTL plant with a targeted minimum output of ~125 barrels/day of high-cetane blendstock (diesel fuel). Should an agreement be reached with any of these parties, such relationship would be anticipated to provide funding for a plant, as well as sufficient additional operating capital for the Company to independently continue operations. While there are no assurances that financing for an initial 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 alternate directions to transition the Company’s GTL system into production.

In addition, the Company is also seeking agreements and/or partnerships with other GTL system providers to use the Company’s proprietary G-Reformer® technology as part of existing, planned, or new GTL systems. There are no assurances that such agreements and partnerships will be obtained on acceptable terms and in a timely manner, and the failure to obtain the necessary working capital may cause the Company to move in one or more alternate directions to monetize its proprietary G-Reformer® technology.

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 and Equipment

Property and equipment are 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 or salvage value are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of the assets. The Company continues to use its fully depreciated property and equipment.

 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 Accounting Standards Codification, 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 any revenues. 

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 September 30, 2018, or December 31, 2017.

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 or beneficial conversion features (23,696,156) have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect would be 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 Notes 6 and 7 below for disclosures associated with the Company’s convertible notes payable and warrants.

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 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 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 nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, 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 condensed consolidated 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 September 30, 2018, the Company did not have any 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 $75,000 net a credit of $210,000 recognized as income during the period, and $232,068 and $177,658 during the three-months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 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

Depreciation expense was $0 and $99 for the three-months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

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.

With respect to these loans, MR. Jones holds the direct collateral interest in the note through his wholly-owned Maybert LC, and the parties share such interests on a pro rata basis.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had approximately $18 million and $16.4 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 2034. 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 nine-months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017:

A comparison of the provision for income tax expense at the federal statutory rate of 21% for the three-months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

The change in the valuation allowance was $1,399,009 and $12,784,855 for the three-months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, 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 $22,196,2867 and $20,707,818 at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Utilization of the Company’s net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation if the Company experiences a 50% change in ownership, as provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an ownership change would substantially increase the possibility of net operating losses expiring before complete utilization.

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.

NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS 

Employment 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.

The foregoing summary of the Employment Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual true and correct Employment Agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.39 and 10.40.

Consulting Agreement

On November 28, 2017, the Company entered into a three-year consulting agreement with Chisos Equity Consultants, LLC for public relations, consulting and corporate communications services. The initial payment was 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. Additional payments upon the Company’s common stock reaching certain price points are follows;

Due to a breach under the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company on June 22, 2018, voted to terminate the Agreement. Based on the termination, all warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock were cancelled.

In October 2015, the Company signed a new two-year lease for new office space of approximately 1,800 square feet at the rate of $2,417 for the first twelve months and $2,495 for the second twelve months. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company expensed $14,510 and $8,640, respectively, in rent expense. The Company terminated the lease effective August 31, 2018 and has no further financial obligations under the lease.

Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. rents approximately 600 square feet of office space at 1511 North Cooper St., Suite 207, Arlington, Texas 76011, at a rate of $871 per month.

The Company pays approximately $11,600 in annual maintenance fees on its Arizona BLM mining leases, in addition to 10% royalties based on production.

Legal  

The Company has been named as a co-defendant in an action brought against the Company and Mamaki Tea, Inc., alleging, among other things, that the Company was named as a co-guarantor on an $850,000 foreclosed note. Management does not believe the ultimate resolution will have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

On April 22, 2016, Greenway Technologies filed suit under Cause No. DC-16-004718, in the 193rd District Court, Dallas County, Texas against Mamaki of Hawaii, Inc. (“Mamaki”), Hawaiian Beverages, Inc.(“HBI”), Curtis Borman and Lee Jenison for breach of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated October 29, 2015, wherein the Company sold its shares in Mamaki to HBI for $700,000 (along with the assumption of certain debt). The Company maintained its guaranty on the original loan as a component of the sale transaction. The Defendants failed to make payments of $150,000 each on November 30, 2015, December 28, 2015 and January 27, 2016. On January 13, 2017, the parties executed a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (Agreement). However, the Defendants again defaulted in their payment obligations under this new Agreement. Curtis Borman and Lee Jennison were co-guarantors of the obligations of Mamaki and HBI. To secure their guaranties, each of Curtis Borman and Lee Jennsion posted 1,241,500 and 1,000,000 shares, respectively, of the Company. Under the Agreement, the shares were valued at $.20. Due to the default under the Agreement, these shares were returned to the Company’s treasury shares. Curtis Borman subsequently filed for bankruptcy and the property was liquidated for $600,000, applied against the prior loan amount, leaving a remaining guaranteed loan payment balance of approximately $700,000, including accrued interest and legal fees. The Company is currently in negotiations with the note holders and anticipates a positive resolution.

Wildcat Consulting Group LLC (“Wildcat”) filed a civil lawsuit against Greenway Technologies, Inc. on September 27, 2018 for an alleged breach of contract. The Company answered the lawsuit and asserted a number of affirmative defenses. Greenway is confident in its defenses and intends to vigorously defend its interests.

See Subsequent Events Note 13.

NOTE 13-SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 23, 2018, Christine Early (Kevin Jones’ spouse and separate shareholder) made a $100,000 loan to the Company, and on November 6, 2018, Michael Wykrent (shareholder) made a $100,000 loan to the Company, both loans being secured by Maybert LLC, a Texas company controlled by Kevin Jones.

On October 19, 2018, a Form PREC14A was filed by a number of shareholders, (the “Committee”) holding greater than 10% of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common stock in an attempt to call a Special Meeting of the Greenway Technologies shareholders. The purpose of the meeting is to elect 4 new directors to the Board that would effectively eliminate 4 of the sitting Directors. Two sitting directors, T. Craig Takacs and D. Patrick Six are included in this action and will retain their seats as Directors if the Committee is successful. The non-filing directors and management oppose this action, and have filed an objection with the SEC.

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-Q.

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources, should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, and in conjunction with our Annual Form 10-K/A filed on April 16, 2018. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, our recurring net losses and inability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including information with respect to our plans, intentions and strategies for our businesses. Our actual results may differ materially from those estimated or projected in any of these forward-looking statements.

Unless the context otherwise suggests, “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms, as well as references to “UMED” and “Greenway Technologies,” all refer to Greenway Technologies, Inc, as of the date of this report.

Overview

Greenway Technologies, UMED Holdings, Inc. (“Greenway” or “UMED”) was originally incorporated as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation (“Dynalyst”) under the laws of the State of Texas on March 13, 2002.

In connection with the merger with Universal Media Corporation (“UMC”), a Nevada corporation, on August 17, 2009, the Company changed its name to Universal Media Corporation. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger, and Universal Media Corporation was the acquiring company on the basis that Universal Media Corporation’s senior management became the entire senior management of the merged entity and there was a change of control of Dynalyst. The transaction was accounted for as recapitalization of Dynalyst’s capital structure. In connection with the merger, Dynalyst issued 57,500,000 restricted common shares to the shareholders of Universal Media Corporation for 100% of Universal Media Corporation.

On August 18, 2009, Dynalyst approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change its name to Universal Media Corporation and approved the increase in authorized shares to 300,000,000 shares of common A stock, par value $0.0001 and 20,000,000 shares of common B, par value $0.0001.

On March 23, 2011, Universal Media Corporation approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change its name to UMED Holdings, Inc.

On June 22, 2017, UMED Holdings, Inc. approved the amendment of its certificate of formation and filed on June 23, 2017, with the Texas Secretary of State, an amendment to change the company name to Greenway Technologies, Inc.

Greenway Technologies, Inc. is a holding company with present interests in energy and mining. The corporate offices and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”), offices are located at 1521 North Cooper Street, Suite 207, Arlington, Texas 76011.

The Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2018 without raising additional debt or equity capital. There can be no assurance that additional debt or equity capital will be raised.

Greenway Technologies is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) entering into joint ventures or partnerships with existing oil and gas producers or refiners to exploit the Company’s patented technology, (ii) licensing or selling rights to its technology, (iii) raising additional equity capital through the issuance of shares or (iv) entering into or issuing debt instruments. This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs and risks. There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate our 12 month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.

Energy Interest

In August of 2012, the Company acquired Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. Greenway Innovative Energy (“GIE”) began work in 2009 on its gas-to-liquids (GTL) system to economically covert natural gas into high-cetane liquid fuels while making no wax product and avoiding the need for further refining. In 2011, Greenway Innovative Energy engaged Houston-based Commonwealth Engineering to design a 1,500 barrel/day GTL system based on steam methane reforming (SMR). This form of reforming proved to be too expensive for commercialization. As a result, GIE embarked on a redesign of the reforming process, with such redesigned process and methodology leading to the issuance of patents in 2013 as described below.

On February 15, 2013, GIE filed for a patent on its GTL technology. U.S. Patent number 8,574,501 was issued on November 5, 2013.

ABSTRACT:

A method and apparatus for converting natural gas from a source, such as a wellhead, pipeline, or a storage facility, into hydrocarbon liquid stable at room temperature, comprising a skid or trailer mounted portable gas to liquids reactor. The reactor includes a preprocessor which desulfurizes and dehydrates the natural gas, a first stage reactor which transforms the preprocessed natural gas into synthesis gas, and a liquid production unit using a Fischer-Tropsch or similar polymerization process. The hydrocarbon liquid may be stored in a portable tank for later transportation or further processed on site.

On November 4, 2013, GIE filed for a second patent covering other aspects of the design.

Also, in November, 2013, GIE reinstated a Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA”) with the University of Texas at Arlington (“UTA”), which is ongoing and continues to the present. The original agreement was initiated in 2009 for GTL proof of concept, scalability, and portability. Under the 2013 agreement, and based on the GIE’s ideas and vision, UTA began research focused solely on catalyst studies for the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) component of the GIE’s GTL system design with a goal of developing a lab platform capable of running 24/7 catalyst testing for one week or longer to prove the viability and commerciality of the process. Under the agreement, parametric studies were conducted for process conditions including reaction temperature and space velocity.

On June 26, 2017, Greenway Technologies, in conjunction with UTA, announced that it had successfully demonstrated its GTL technology at the Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA proving the viability of the GTL system. 

On March 6, 2018, the Company announced the completion of its first G-Reformer® system, which converts natural gas into synthesis gas. The G-Reformer® is a critical component of the company’s innovative Greer-Wright Gas-to-Liquids system which converts natural gas into liquid fuels. A team consisting of individuals from Greenway Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), and Industrial Refractory Services, Inc. worked together to calibrate the newly-built G-Reformer®. The G-Reformer® testing performed at that time substantiated the units’ synthesis gas generation capability and demonstrated additional proficiencies within certain prior prescribed testing metrics.

The Company believes that the G-Reformer® is a major innovation in gas reforming and GTL technology. It is superior to legacy technologies which are costly, have a larger footprint, and cannot be easily deployed at field sites to process associated gas, stranded gas, coal-bed methane, vented gas, or flared gas, all markets the Company seeks to service. This technology, based around the G-Reformer®, is unique in that it allows for transportable GTL plants with a smaller footprint, when compared to legacy large-scale technologies. The Company believes its technologies and processes will allow for GTL plants with substantially lower up-front and ongoing costs resulting in profitable operations. Greenway Technologies is now working to commercialize both its G-Reformer® and its GTL solutions and is in discussions with a number of oil and gas companies, smaller oil and gas operators, and other interested parties to obtain joint venture or other forms of capital funding to build its first complete gas-to-liquid plant using Greenway’s proprietary GTL conversion processes. The Company is also exploring licensing its G-Reformer® product with representatives of various industries.

Mining Interest

In December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) land in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of our restricted common stock. Early indications, from samples taken and processed, provided 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 which may be realized from this property holding. The Company is currently exploring strategic options to partner or sell its interest in this acreage.

Going Concern

As of September 30, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $25,136,606. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, the Company used net cash of $432,867 for operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

While the Company is attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, the current cash position is not sufficient to support its daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering or both. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to further implement our business plan and generate revenues.

Three-months Ended September 30, 2018, Compared to Three-months Ended September 30, 2017.

Revenues.

During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, and 2017, the Company had no revenues from operations. Management is aggressively looking for ways to leverage our technology to develop revenue streams.

Operating Expenses.

Consulting Fees. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, consulting expense increased to $64,120 as compared to $46,000 from the prior year three-months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of increased use of consultants in conducting operations.

Officer Compensation. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, officer compensation increased to $60,000as compared to $40,000 from the prior year three-months ended September 30, 2017. Officer compensation decreased due to two factors. On May 10, 2018, the Company hired a President and Chief Financial Officer. Under their Employment Agreements, the Company accrued $60,000 in officer compensation for the quarter.

Operating Expenses. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, operating expenses decreased to $(39,546) as compared to $171,960 from the prior year three-months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a reversal of a previously accrued research and development expense of $210,000 that was accrued at the end of the second quarter 2018.. Legal expenses decreased to $32,300 in the three-months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $55,438 in the three-months ended September 30, 2017.

Interest Expense. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, interest expense decreased to $(5,476) as compared to interest expense of $120 in the prior year three-months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to $13,540 reversal of accrued interest on a cancelled note and the amortization of debt issue cost related to convertible promissory notes issued in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Derivative Adjustment. During the three-months ended September 30, 2018, the loss on derivative adjustment was $56,168 as compared to a loss of $26,329 for the prior year three-months ended September 30, 2017. The change was due to the convertible note payable being paid in first quarter 2017 and the derivative liability for the three-months ended September 30, 2018 being calculated on a new note issued in the third quarter of 2017, which had warrants attached, using the Black-Scholes Model only on the warrants.

Net Loss from Operations. Our net loss from operations decreased to $135,266 for the three-months ended September 30, 2018 compared to a loss of $1,299,695 for the three-months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to decrease the changes in expenses, as described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash. The following table provides certain selected balance sheet comparisons between September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017:

In the three-months ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s working capital deficit increased by $158,599 as a result of a increase in current assets of $34,401 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $193,000,

Operating activities

Net cash used in continuing operating activities during the three-months ended September 30, 2018, was $(101,967) as compared to $(553,268) for the three-months ended September 30, 2017. Items totaling approximately $33,001 contributing to the net cash used in continuing operating activities for the three-months ended September 30, 2018, include:

Net cash used in continuing operating activities for the three-months ended September 30, 2017, was $(553,268). Items totaling approximately $527,746 contributing to the net cash used in continuing operating activities for the three-months ended September 30, 2017, include: 

Investing activities

The Company had no investing activities during the three-months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $100,000 for the three-months ended September 30, 2018, composed of $100,000 in loans to the Company. See Note 5.

Seasonality

The Company does not anticipate that our business will be affected by seasonal factors.

Impact of Inflation

General inflation in the economy has driven the operating expenses of many businesses higher. The Company will continuously seek methods of reducing costs and streamlining operations while maximizing efficiency through improved internal operating procedures and controls. While the Company’s businesses are subject to inflation as described above, management believes that inflation currently does not have a material effect on our operating results. However, inflation may become a factor in the future.

Commitments

Employment Agreements.

In August 2012, The Company entered into an employment agreement with the president and chairman of the board of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. for a term of five years with compensation of $90,000 per year. In September 2014, the president’s employment agreement was amended to increase his annual pay to $180,000. By its terms, the employment agreement automatically renewed on August 12, 2018 for a successive one-year period. During the three-months ended September 30, 2017, the Company paid and accrued a total of $45,000 for the Greenway Innovative Energy president.

Effective May 10, 2018, the Company entered into employment agreements with John Olynick, as President and Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer, respectively. The terms and conditions of their employment agreements are identical. John Olynick, as President earns a salary of $120,000 per year. Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer, earns a salary of $120,000 per year. Mr. Jones also serves as the Company’s Secretary and Treasurer. During each year that their Agreements are in effect, they are each entitled to receive a bonus (“Bonus”) equal to at least Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) per year. They are also entitled to certain additional stock grants based on the performance of the Company during the term of their employment. They are each entitled to a grant of common stock (the “Stock Grant”) on the Effective Date equal to 250,000 shares each of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), such shares vesting immediately. They are also entitled to participate in the Company’s benefit plans.

The foregoing summary of the Employment Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual true and correct Employment Agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.39 and 10.40.

In the August 2012 acquisition agreement with Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., The Company agreed to issue an additional 7,500,000 shares of restricted common stock when the first portable GTL unit is built and becomes operational and is capable of producing 2,000 barrels of diesel or jet fuel per day and to pay Greenway Innovative Energy a 2% royalty on all gross production sales on each unit placed in production. In connection with a settlement agreement with one of the prior owners of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., the Company replaced 3,750,000 of the shares with a different amount of shares and other consideration. As a result, only 3,750,000 shares are committed to be issued under this agreement.

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 three-months ended September 30, 2018, and 2017, the Company expensed $26,992 and $35,023. The Company terminated the lease effective August 31, 2018 and has no further financial obligations under the lease.

Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. rents approximately 600 square feet of office space at 1511 North Cooper St., Suite 207, Arlington, Texas 76011, at a rate of $871 per month.

Mining Interest.

In December 2010, the Company acquired from Melek Mining, Inc. and 4HM Partners, LLC the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) land in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of restricted common stock. Our minimum commitment for 2018 is approximately $11,160 in annual maintenance fees, which was paid when due in September 2018, to the United States Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). If and once production begins, royalties will be owed to the BLM equal to 10% of production. As of the date of this report, the mining claims are not covered by any lease agreement; we file an annual maintenance fee form to hold the claims.

Consulting Agreement

On November 28, 2017, the Company entered into a three-year consulting agreement with Chisos Equity Consultants, LLC for public relations, consulting and corporate communications services. The initial payment was 1,800,000 shares of its restricted common stock. Additional payments upon our common stock reaching certain price points as follows;

 Due to a breach under the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company on June 22, 2018 voted to terminate the Agreement. Based on the termination, all warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock were cancelled.

Critical Accounting Policies

Financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Sales are recorded when products are shipped to customers. 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.

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for financial impairment on a regular basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets not held for sale by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future discounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company conducts all transactions, including those with foreign suppliers and customers, in U.S. dollars. The Company is therefore not directly subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations and do not hedge or otherwise deal in currency instruments in an attempt to minimize such risks. Demand from foreign customers and the ability or willingness of foreign suppliers to perform their obligations to us may be affected by the relative change in value of such customer or supplier’s domestic currency to the value of the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, changes in the relative value of the U.S. dollar may change the price of products relative to the prices of our foreign competitors.

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.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation.” The update removes all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915 from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, the update adds an example disclosure in Risks and Uncertainties (Topic 275) to illustrate one way that an entity that has not begun planned principal operations could provide information about the risks and uncertainties related to Greenway Technologies’ current activities. Furthermore, the update removes an exception provided to development stage entities in Consolidations (Topic 810) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity-which may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a company that has an interest in a company in the development stage. The update is effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, including interim periods therein. Early application with the first annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued (Public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). We adopted this pronouncement for the three-months ended September 30, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

There has been no material change in our market risks since the end of the fiscal year 2017.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a, et seq) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s 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, our 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:

The Company’s management, including the chief executive and chief financial officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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 inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Also, 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.

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 March 2018, the Company 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 revised 2013 (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission. Based upon this assessment, we determined that our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considers to be material weaknesses under COSO 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 September 30, 2018, 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 the Company is unable to meet the standards under COSO because of limited funds, the Company is committed to improving its financial organization. As funds become available, the Company will undertake to: (1) create positions to segregate duties consistent with control objectives, (2) increase 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 an 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.

The Company 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 Greenway Technologies 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.

 PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

The Company has been named as a co-defendant in an action brought against us and Mamaki Tea, Inc., alleging, among other things, that the Company was named as a co-guarantor on an $850,000 foreclosed note. Management does not believe the ultimate resolution will have an adverse impact on the financial condition or results of operations.

On April 22, 2016, Greenway Technologies filed suit under Cause No. DC-16-004718, in the 193rd District Court, Dallas County, Texas against Mamaki of Hawaii, Inc. (“Mamaki”), Hawaiian Beverages, Inc.(“HBI”), Curtis Borman and Lee Jenison for breach of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated October 29, 2015, wherein the Company sold shares in Mamaki to HBI for $700,000 (along with the assumption of certain debt). The Company maintained its guaranty on the original loan as a component of the sale transaction. The Defendants failed to make payments of $150,000 each on November 30, 2015, December 28, 2015 and January 27, 2016. On January 13, 2017, we executed a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement with the Defendants. However, the Defendants again defaulted in their payment obligations under Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement. Curtis Borman subsequently filed for bankruptcy and the property was liquidated for $600,000, applied against the prior loan amount, leaving a remaining guaranteed loan payment balance of approximately $700,000, including accrued interest and legal fees. The Company is currently in negotiations with the note holders and anticipates a positive resolution.

On April 9, 2108, the Company and Tonaquint, Inc. agreed to settle on Tonaquint’s exercise of a warrant option with a one-time issuance from Greenway Technologies of 1,600,000 shares of our common stock subject to a weekly leak out restriction equal to the greater of $10,000.00 and 8% of the weekly trading volume. Further, the issuance of stock will be done in connection with a legal opinion pursuant to Rule 144.

On September 27, 2018, Wildcat Consulting Group LLC (“Wildcat”) filed a civil lawsuit against Greenway Technologies, Inc. for an alleged breach of contract. The Company answered the lawsuit and asserted a number of affirmative defenses. Greenway is confident in its defenses and intends to vigorously defend its interests.
