NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

History

HFactor, Inc. formerly known as Ficaar, Inc. (the “Company” or “Ficaar” or “HFactor”) was incorporated in July 2001 under the name OwnerTel, Inc. The name of the Company was changed to Ficaar, Inc. in December of 2007 and to HFactor, Inc. on November 8, 2021.

On May 28, 2021, David Cicalese (“Cicalese”), an officer and Board member of Ficaar entered into an agreement with Gail Levy whereby Cicalese agreed to sell 29,900,000 shares, representing a majority interest in Ficaar, to Levy. Acting as the majority shareholder of the Company, Levy then caused Ficaar to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) between the Company, FCAA Merger Sub I, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Ficaar, and HyEdge, Inc. (“Target” or “HyEdge”), a Delaware corporation, wherein Merger Sub and Target would merge, with Target surviving the transaction as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ficaar (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement was executed on August 6, 2021 and the Merger closed on August 9, 2021. The Merger effected a change in control and was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" whereby Target is the accounting acquiror for financial statement purposes. Accordingly, for all periods subsequent to the Closing Date, the financial statements of the Company reflect the historical financial statements of HyEdge and any operations of the Company subsequent to the Merger.

Immediately following the Merger, the business of HyEdge became the business of the Company.

In connection with the reverse acquisition and recapitalization, all share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated. Since the transaction is considered a reverse acquisition and recapitalization, accounting guidance does not apply for purposes of presenting pro-forma financial information.

On September 2, 2021 the Company filed an amendment in its articles of incorporation to change its name to HFactor Inc. The Company was able to secure an OTC Bulletin Board symbol HWTR from Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Present Operations

The Company as a result of the Merger, changed its business focus from engaging in the cannabis industry to presently being a holding company that operates entirely through its subsidiary, HyEdge, Inc., a Delaware Corporation. The Company engages in the manufacturing, marketing, distribution and selling of HFactor^® hydrogen infused drinking water.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021, has been derived from audited financial statements and (b) condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 14, 2022. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

These consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and are expressed in United States dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HFactor Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, HyEdge, Inc., a Delaware corporation. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, and do not reflect any adjustments related to the uncertainty surrounding the Company’s recurring losses, working capital deficiency or accumulated deficit.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $73,275 in cash to fund its operations. The Company does not believe its current cash balance will be sufficient to allow the Company to fund its planned operating activities for the next twelve months. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. These principal factors raise substantial doubt concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management has financed the Company’s operations principally through government loans, third party loans and from related parties, and through equity investments into the Company.

It is the Company’s intent to continue to attempt to raise funds in this manner and to raise funds through the sale of equity securities until the Company attains profitability. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

Cash

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company held a cash balance of $73,275 and $250,854, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from sales of the Company’s products is recorded when title and risk of loss have passed to the buyer and criteria for revenue recognition is met. The Company sells its products to individual consumers and resellers upon receipt of a written order. The Company has a limited return policy for defective items that requires that buyers give the Company notice within 30 days after receipt of the products. Due to the immaterial quantities of returned products historically, for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized revenue at the time of delivery without providing any reserve.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represents amounts due from the Company’s customers. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management utilizes a specific customer identification methodology. Management also considers historical losses adjusted for current market conditions and the customers’ financial condition and the current receivables aging and current payment patterns. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for doubtful accounts were not material.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. The stated cost is comprised of finished goods of HFactor^® hydrogen infused drinking water, its related raw material and spare parts for machinery. Reserves, if necessary, are recorded to reduce inventory to market value based on assumptions about consumer demand, current inventory levels and product life cycles for the various inventory items. These assumptions are evaluated annually and are based on the Company’s business plan and from feedback from customers and the product development team. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the inventory reserves were not material.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally three to five years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income or expense.

The Company will periodically evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful lives of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed assets in measuring their recoverability.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $32,928 and $ -0-, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period, which includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

ASC 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. This first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Based on its evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. The Company's evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2017 through 2021, The Company does not expect any changes in its unrecognized tax benefits in the current year.

The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits is to record such expenses as a component of current income tax expense. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Research and Development Expense

Costs related to research and development, which primarily consists of consulting for logo and packaging design, are charged to expense as incurred. The Company has not incurred any research and development for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes loss per common share, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the issuance of common shares, if dilutive, that could result from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants. No potential dilutive common shares are included in the computation of any diluted per share amount when a loss is reported.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value method of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, in accounting for its stock-based compensation. These standards state that compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period, if any. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of its stock, stock option and warrant issuance. The determination of the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include the Company’s expected stock price, volatility over the term of the awards, actual employee exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.

Fair Value

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 — Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs;

Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

The carrying amounts of cash, loan receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities, and accrued interest payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

The fair value of the Company’s debt approximated the carrying value of the Company's debt as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Factors that the Company considered when estimating the fair value of its debt included market conditions, liquidity levels in the private placement market, variability in pricing from multiple lenders and term of debt.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements during 2022 and 2021 and do not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – FIXED ASSETS, NET

(D) On December 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Boot Capital LLC (“Boot”), lender for the three notes of (A), (B) and (C), whereby Boot agreed to retire all of its outstanding warrants (850,000 in total) in exchange for 200 shares of Series D Preferred stock. The Preferred stock shares were issued on March 29, 2022. Accordingly, the Warrant liability of $335,651 as of December 31, 2021 was written-off during the period ended June 30, 2022.

In accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, the Company allocated $-0- and $654,000 of the derivative liability as discounts against the convertible notes for the period ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. The discounts are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. The Company recorded $311,006 and $41,518 of interest expense pursuant to the amortization of the note discounts during the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTE 5 – NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

Notes payable to related parties consists of the following:

NOTE 6 – GOVERNMENT DEBT

Economic Injury Disaster Loan

On June 2, 2020, the Company executed a secured loan with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program in the amount of $150,000. The loan is secured by all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and payable over 30 years at an interest rate of 3.75 % per annum. Installment payments, including principal and interest, totaling $731.00 monthly, will begin thirty (30) months from the date of the Note, with first payments applied to accumulated accrued interest. As part of the loan, the Company also received an advance of $10,000 from the SBA. While the SBA refers to this program as an advance, it was written into law as a grant. This means that the amount given through this program does not need to be repaid.

Future maturities of government debt are as follows:

NOTE 7 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The Company analyzed the notes payable – related parties and convertible notes payable referred to in Notes 4 and 5 based on the provisions of ASC 815-15 and determined that the conversion options of the convertible notes qualify as embedded derivatives and required the recognition of derivative liabilities.

For the derivative instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date and any resulting gain or loss is recognized as a current period charge to the consolidated statements of operations. The Company estimates the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model that combines expected cash outflows with market-based assumptions regarding risk-adjusted yields, stock price volatility, probability of a change of control and the trading information of our common stock into which the notes are convertible, as appropriate to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates and the value is reassessed at the end of each reporting period, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-15.

The aggregate fair value of derivative liabilities as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 amounted to $801,449 and $793,997, respectively. The assets or liability’s fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table provides a summary of the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

NOTE 8 – MERGER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Merger

On August 6, 2021, the Company, FCAA Merger Sub I, Inc, (‘Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Ficaar, and HyEdge, Inc. ("Target" or "HyEdge"), a Delaware corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") which closed on August 9, 2021 (the "Closing Date"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Target and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, with Target continuing its corporate existence as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger effected a change in control and was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" whereby Target is the accounting acquiror for financial statement purposes. Accordingly, for all periods subsequent to the Closing Date, the financial statements of the Company reflect the historical financial statements of HyEdge and any operations of the Company subsequent to the Merger.

Prior to the Merger, the Company ceased being an operating company and became a "shell company". Pursuant to the Merger, the Company acquired the business of Target to engage in the business of the development, marketing, and sale of hydrogen-infused water and other consumer goods.

As consideration for the merger, Target shareholders exchanged 100% of Target Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement) totaling 44,136,473 fully diluted shares into shares of Company Common Stock at a conversion rate of 0.7 As a result, an aggregate of 30,895,530 shares of the company’s Common Stock, 1,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and 3,054 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were to be issued to the shareholders of Target. As of December 31, 2021, there were 30,197,888 of the planned Merger shares of common stock issued and the Series C and D Preferred shares issued.

Changes to the Company's Officers and Directors

Effective May 27, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Gail Levy as Chief Executive Officer of FICAAR, Inc. On June 1, 2021, in conjunction with the aforementioned change in control, David Cicalese resigned as Secretary and Chairman of the Board of Directors. On June 9, 2021, a majority of Company shareholders elected Gail Levy as Chairman and a member of the Board of Directors. These changes were reported on the Company's form 8-K that was filed on June 10, 2021.

In conjunction with the Merger, Dawn Cames resigned as President, James C. Sanborn was appointed as COO and as a member of the Board of Directors, and Leonard Klingbaum was appointed as a member of the Board of Directors.

Refer to Note 13 for subsequent Changes to Management and Directors.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal – To the best of our knowledge and belief, no material legal proceedings of merit are currently pending or threatened.

Legal Matters:

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business.

To the best of the Company’s knowledge and belief, no material legal proceedings of merit are currently pending or threatened.

Dispute:

The Company is disputing the validity of a convertible promissory note carried over from its merger in August 2021. Since it presently is not possible to determine the outcome of this matter, the note is disclosed in Note 4 to the financial statements with a net balance of $121,369 until its ultimate resolution.

Employment and Consulting Agreements:

During years from 2017 to 2019, the Company signed employment agreements with five executive officers: the President, Chief Operating Officer, Director of Marketing, President and Chief Medical Officer and its Vice President of Sales. With the exception of one contract, each agreement is at will with no set termination periods., unless terminated earlier. The contracts provide for an annual base salary ranging from $100,000 to $200,00, participation in the Company’s Bonus Plan, Stock Option Plan, Medical benefits, severance pay and two (2) year non-compete clauses.

Rental:

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Company management and employees have been working remotely and accordingly, incurring no rental expense during the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020.

COVID-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, and has since reached multiple other countries, including the United States, resulting in government-imposed quarantines, travel restrictions and other public health safety measures in affected countries. The various precautionary measures taken by many governmental authorities around the world in order to limit the spread of COVID-19has had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on the global markets and its economy, including on the availability and pricing of employees and resources, and other aspects of the global economy. Although the Company cannot predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its business or results of operations in future periods, to date, the Company’s core water product applications have been able to support the increased demand the Company has experienced.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak as a global health emergency. This resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus, including the closure of certain non-essential businesses

During the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively, the pandemic did not have a material impact on the Company’s operations. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and through June 30, 2022, the Company did not observe any material impairment of its assets or a significant change in the fair value of assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has taken steps to minimize the potential impact of the pandemic including safety measures with respect to personal protective equipment, the reduction in travel and the implementation of a virtual office including regular video conference meetings and participation in virtual customer meetings and other virtual events.

In connection with the Merger with HyEdge, on September 15, 2021, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred stock, non-dividend, with voting rights. Each share of Series C Preferred stock is convertible into the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the result of (i) 1.5 times the number of Common shares issued and outstanding calculated on a fully diluted basis at the time of conversion, (ii) divided by the total number of Series C Preferred shares issued and outstanding at the time of conversion.

Additionally, the Company issued 3,054 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred stock, non-dividend, with no voting rights. Each share of Series D Preferred stock is convertible into the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 0.01% of the number of Common shares issued and outstanding at the time of conversion.

The Preferred stock shares were issued on March 29, 2022.

On June 29,2022, 100 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued to an investor in connection with execution of a Leak-Out Agreement.

As of June 30, 2022, 28,996,46 shares of Preferred stock remain unissued.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

The Company uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. During the current period, the Company incurred a net loss and therefore has no tax liability.

The Company has U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryovers (“NOL’s”) of approximately $16 million and $13 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which begin to expire in 2036. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of NOL’s available to offset future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.

The significant components of deferred income tax assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows: 

The amount taken into income as deferred income tax assets must reflect that portion of the income tax loss carry forwards that is more-likely-than-not to be realized from future operations. The Company has chosen to provide a full valuation allowance against all available income tax loss carry forwards. The Company has recognized a valuation allowance for the deferred income tax asset since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. The valuation allowance is reviewed annually. When circumstances change and which cause a change in management’s judgment about the realizability of deferred income tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in current income.

Plan of Operations

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

HFactor water was created by Gail Levy, HyEdge's founder and CEO. Gail is a successful serial entrepreneur who was looking for a new product that could alleviate the toxic side effects of the cancer chemotherapeutic drugs that had riddled a dear friend. As she researched the properties of hydrogen water, she became more and more enthralled by its potential. Ms. Levy felt she could honor her friend by making hydrogen water immaculate, effective, and accessible to everyone. Enlivened by this mission, she collected a team of experts to help her engineer a natural process to combine hydrogen with water with zero impurities and optimal impact. In 2017, she launched her flagship product through retail and ecommerce channels. HFactor was developed and is manufactured by a team of experts in the U.S. and utilizes a patented chemical-free and magnesium-free process to infuse free hydrogen into its water. Its award winning, environmentally friendly ergonomic pouch keeps the hydrogen potent and pure and makes it extremely portable.

HFactor's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits appeal to a wide population across every age group, positioning HFactor to capture significant share in an expanding market. The global market for bottled water is projected to reach $215B by 2025. HFactor has demonstrated significant market traction, with $2.87M sales in 2020, 30M+ followers across Social Media channels.

The quality of our product is achieved through a proprietary manufacturing process. A reverse osmosis filtering system and patent-protected infusion process ensures efficacy, purity, and taste. The efficacy of hydrogen water is backed by over 1,000 published peer reviewed studies demonstrating that hydrogen positively impacts fitness, health, lifestyle, recovery, and wellness.

Our sales strategy involves a diversified, multi-channel approach. Our products are currently on shelves in approximately 5,000+ retail stores across 20 chains in addition to our growing ecommerce presence. Our company prides itself on having a low carbon footprint, primarily due to our eco-conscious packaging and free mail-in recycling program through our partnership with Teracycle.

Our mission statement is to build a brand and corporate culture that, at its essence, exhibits strength in oneself and in one's community. We promote a foundation of "doing well by doing good". This foundation enables HFactor to produce and distribute the highest quality "better for you" consumer products that are conscious to the community, mind, body, and the environment

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Results of Operations

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $1,196,118 as compared to $-0- for the six months ended June 30, 2021 which resulted from the merger of HyEdge.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $73,275 in cash to fund its operations. The Company reported working capital deficit of $5,424,691 at June 30, 2022 as compared to a working capital deficit of $4,855,836 at December 31, 2021, representing an increase in working capital deficit by $568,855.

The Company does not believe its current cash balance will be sufficient to allow the Company to fund its planned operating activities for the next twelve months. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail some or all of its planned activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As the Company continues to incur losses, achieving profitability is dependent on achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company's cost structure. The Company may never achieve profitability, and unless and until it does, the Company will continue to need to raise additional capital. Management intends to fund future operations through additional private or public equity offering and may seek additional capital through arrangements with strategic partners of from other sources. There can be no assurances, however, that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Any equity financing may be dilutive to existing shareholders, which dilution may be significant depending on the terms of the transactions.

Operating Activities:

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash flow used by operating activities was $(697,579) compared to $(11,198) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases in cash flow used for operating activities for 2022 period were primarily due to increases in operating expenditures resulting from the HyEdge merger.

Investing and Financing Activities:

Net cash flows provided by (used) in investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $520,000 from sales of common stock shares compared to $11,198 in net payments from borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resource Measures:

The Company’s primary source of liquidity has been from convertible loans and third party and related party loans.

Going Concern

The Company has experienced a net loss and had an accumulated deficit of $3,236,411 as of June 30, 2022. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue absent raising sufficient capital to fund continued operations. Management expects to incur additional losses in the foreseeable future and recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Transaction with Related Parties:

None

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses discussed below.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management of the Company has evaluated, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company had concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were not effective for the following reasons:

a) The Company has limited segregation of duties amongst its employees with respect to the Company's control activities. This deficiency is the result of the Company's limited number of employees. This deficiency may affect management's ability to determine if errors or inappropriate actions have taken place. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible changes in our disclosure controls and procedures.

b) The Company's has a limited number of external board members. This deficiency may give the impression to the investors that the board is not independent from management. Management and the Board of Directors are required to apply their judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible changes in the organization of the Board of Directors.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

Management of the Company has also evaluated, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
