Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2023 and 2022
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
Unless otherwise indicated, any reference to “the Company”, “we”, “us”, or “its” refers to IIOT-OXYS, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and as applicable to its wholly-owned subsidiaries, OXYS Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and HereLab, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
IIOT-OXYS, Inc., incorporated in Nevada on July 6, 2017, (the “Company”) was established for the purpose of designing, building, testing, and selling Edge Computing Systems for the Industrial Internet. The Company is currently devoting substantially all its efforts in identifying, developing and marketing engineered products, software and services for applications in the Industrial Internet which involves collecting and processing data collected from a wide variety of industrial systems and machines.
Impact of COVID-19
The global COVID-19 pandemic continues to present uncertainty and unforeseeable risks to the Company’s operations and business plan. The Company has closely monitored recent developments, including the lifting of COVID-19 safety measures, the spread of new strains or variants of the coronavirus (such as the Delta and Omicron variants), and supply chain and labor shortages. Thus, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business and operations remains uncertain and will vary depending on the pandemic’s future impact on the third parties with whom the Company does business, as well as any legal or regulatory consequences resulting therefrom. The Company has been following the recommendations of health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its team members and may take further actions that alter our operations, including any required by federal, state or local authorities, or that it determines are in the best interests of its employees and other third parties with whom the Company does business.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company. The financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered continuing operating losses, has a working capital deficit of $1,958,290, used cash flows in operating activities of $129,417, and has an accumulated deficit of $9,831,038 as of September 30, 2023. These factors, among others, raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. The accompanying condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that the Company will be able to achieve a satisfactory level of liquidity to meet the Company’s obligations for the next twelve months by generating cash through additional borrowings and/or sale of equity securities, as needed. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient liquidity to maintain its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to GAAP in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information, and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on April 13, 2023.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated condensed financial statements for September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, include the accounts of Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries OXYS Corporation and HereLab, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the valuation of accounts payable, accrued liabilities and payable to related parties. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible note and preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from providing services under contractual agreements. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic No. 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) which was adopted on January 1, 2018.
According to ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue based on the following criteria:
· | Identification of a contract or contracts, with a customer. | |
· | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. | |
· | Determination of contract price. | |
· | Allocation of transaction price to the performance obligation. | |
· | Recognition of revenue when, or as, performance obligation is satisfied. |
The Company used a practical expedient available under ASC 606-10-65-1(f)4 that permits it to consider the aggregate effect of all contract modifications that occurred before the beginning of the earliest period presented when identifying satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations.
The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities as cost of sales. Additionally, the Company has elected to record revenue net of sales and other similar taxes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB and do not require adoption until a future date, are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
NOTE 3 - NOTE RECEIVABLE
On April 4, 2022, the Company was issued an unsecured convertible promissory note with the principal sum of $200,000 (“Note”) with a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. The Note bears an original issuance discount of $7,500 and matures on April 4, 2024. The interest on the Note accrues at the rate of 10% per annum from the date of the Note, and will continue to accrue on the outstanding principal until the entire balance is paid or converted into shares of common stock equal to 3.23% of the fully diluted share capital of the borrower on the conversion date. The terms of the Note require the borrower to prepay (i) within 30 days of April 4, 2022, the first twelve months of interest totaling $20,000, and (ii) within six months of April 4, 2022, the interest for the second twelve months under the Note totaling $20,000. The Company will have the right, at its option on the maturity date, to convert all the principal sum into the common stock equal to 3.23% of the fully diluted share capital of the borrower as of the conversion date. On April 4, 2022, the Company advanced to the borrower $192,500 cash and recorded an original issuance discount on note receivable of $7,500. On April 21, 2022, the Company received $20,000 as prepaid interest from the borrower for the first twelve months of the Note.

On July 28, 2017, we closed the reverse acquisition transaction under the Securities Exchange Agreement dated March 16, 2017, as reported in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on August 3, 2017. Following the closing, our business has been that of OXYS, Inc. and HereLab, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiaries. Our operations have varied significantly following the closing since, prior to that time, we were an inactive shell company.
Impact of COVID-19
The global COVID-19 pandemic continues to present uncertainty and unforeseeable risks to the Company’s operations and business plan. The Company has closely monitored recent developments, including the lifting of COVID-19 safety measures, the spread of new strains or variants of the coronavirus (such as the Delta and Omicron variants), and supply chain and labor shortages. Thus, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business and operations remains uncertain and will vary depending on the pandemic’s future impact on the third parties with whom the Company does business, as well as any legal or regulatory consequences resulting therefrom. The Company has been following the recommendations of health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its team members and may take further actions that alter our operations, including any required by federal, state or local authorities, or that it determines are in the best interests of its employees and other third parties with whom the Company does business.

Historical Background
We were incorporated in the State of New Jersey on October 1, 2003 under the name of Creative Beauty Supply of New Jersey Corporation and subsequently changed our name to Gotham Capital Holdings, Inc. on May 18, 2015. We commenced operations in the beauty supply industry as of January 1, 2004. On November 30, 2007, our Board of Directors approved a plan to dispose of our wholesale and retail beauty supply business. From January 1, 2009 until July 28, 2017, we had no operations and were a shell company.
On March 16, 2017, our Board of Directors adopted resolutions, which were approved by shareholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares, to change our name to “IIOT-OXYS, Inc.”, to authorize a change of domicile from New Jersey to Nevada, to authorize a 2017 Stock Awards Plan, and to approve the Securities Exchange Agreement (the “OXYS SEA”) between the Company and OXYS Corporation (“OXYS”), a Nevada corporation incorporated on August 4, 2016.
Under the terms of the OXYS SEA we acquired 100% of the issued voting shares of OXYS in exchange for 34,687,244 shares of our Common Stock. We also cancelled 1,500,000 outstanding shares of our Common Stock and changed our management to Mr. DiBiase who also served in management of OXYS. Also, one of our principal shareholders entered into a consulting agreement with OXYS to provide consulting services during the transition. The OXYS SEA was effective on July 28, 2017, and our name was changed to “IIOT-OXYS, Inc.” at that time. Effective October 26, 2017, our domicile was changed from New Jersey to Nevada.
At the present time, we have two, wholly-owned subsidiaries which are OXYS Corporation and HereLab, Inc. (an entity immaterial to our operations), through which our operations are conducted.
General Overview
IIOT-OXYS, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and OXYS, were originally established for the purposes of designing, building, testing, and selling Edge Computing systems for the Industrial Internet. Both companies were, and presently are, early-stage technology startups that are largely pre-revenue in their development phase. HereLab (an entity immaterial to our operations) is also an early-stage technology development company. We received our first revenues in the last quarter of 2017, continued to realize revenues until 2020 when the pandemic hit, and we realized nominal revenues through 2021 to the present.
We develop hardware, software and algorithms that monitor, measure and predict conditions for energy, structural, agricultural and medical applications. We use domain-specific Artificial Intelligence to solve industrial and environmental challenges. Our engineered solutions focus on common sense approaches to machine learning, algorithm development and hardware and software products.
We use off the shelf components, with reconfigurable hardware architecture that adapts to a wide range of customer needs and applications. We use open-source software tools, while still creating proprietary content for customers, thereby reducing software development time and cost. The software works with the hardware to collect data from the equipment or structure that is being monitored.
We focus on developing insights. We develop algorithms that help our customers create insights from vast data streams. The data collected is analyzed and reports are created for the customer. From these insights, the customer can act to improve their process, product or structure.

As a result, we incurred a net loss of $775,217 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
During the current and prior period, we did not record an income tax benefit due to the uncertainty associated with the Company’s ability to utilize the deferred tax assets.
The first nine months of revenue in 2023 was a substantial improvement over the same period in 2022 (an increase of 149%), and we have already met our commitment for 2023 revenue to exceed that in 2022. We expect revenue to moderate in the fourth quarter of 2023, as our ability to raise funding to fuel sales & marketing efforts has been limited. Potential future revenue growth is possible, pending adequate funding for sales and marketing efforts and building on the strength of the following factors:
· | Our current DOT Bridge Monitoring Contract and overall Structural Health Monitoring (“SHM”) vertical is the foundation of our revenue stream. The current monitoring revenue will continue through the fourth quarter of 2023. Discussions with our main contractor to the DOT for extensions and expansions continue to be favorable. We also continue to believe that prospects with our current DOT state, and DOT contacts in two other northeast states bode well for future business in mid-2024. There is still potential for local municipalities in our current northeast state to contribute revenue in 2024. |
27 |
· | Our Smart Manufacturing vertical is benefiting from the progress on our CNC SaaS contract that commenced in June 2023, and will continue through the fourth quarter of 2023. Initial public endorsements and promotional videos have been released and additional videos are planned for release in the fourth quarter of 2023. These endorsements and promotional videos along with grass-roots sales & marketing efforts have generated additional sales leads for potential paid CNC POCs and additional SaaS contracts, which may contribute to revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 and beyond. It is also expected these endorsements will also strengthen our position to secure additional POCs for other discrete manufacturing processes, including metal stamping, plastic injection molding, plastic extrusion, and automated assembly and test. | |
· | Our strategic partnership development continues to be a “force multiplier” for us. The strength of our Aingura IIoT, S.L. partnership provides supplemental expertise, equipment and software, which ensures we continue to bring value to our customers. We will also continue to develop our other previously announced partnerships. |
Despite these strengths, we continue to face significant headwinds and we have not been able to raise material funds for ongoing operations through our existing financing agreements due to market conditions. Our CEO and COO have not received any compensation since mid-April (their salaries have accrued), and the lack of funds has severely limited sales and marketing efforts. Our management is working to secure funding from our lead investor to pay for ongoing expenses and the leadership team is considering many options for both the short and long term. These options depend largely upon our ability to continue to raise funds and implement a marketing and sales plan. In the event we are unable to raise adequate funds, management may need to consider other options such as pursuing suitable companies to merge with or acquire us.
We believe that our business development in these industries has potential for success, due to the strength of their size and growth. The global smart manufacturing (also known as Industry 4.0) was $97.6 billion in 2022 and will reach $228.3 billion by 2027 (CAGR 18.5%)1, and the worldwide SHM industry was $2.0 billion in 2021 and will reach $4.0 billion by 2027 (CAGR of 14.6%).2
Given the valuable real-world data we have collected, our Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) Machine Learning algorithms we have developed, compelling use cases and marketing collateral developed from our data and algorithms, combined with our experienced leadership, savvy technological talent, and operational execution excellence, we believe continued annual revenue growth is possible, if adequate funding for sales and marketing efforts can be secured.

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 resulted due to cash advanced for a promissory note receivable totaling $200,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $113,871 primarily due to sales of our common stock of $54,195, Series B convertible preferred stock of $62,000 and paid $2,324 in costs for raising capital. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $659,024 primarily due to cash received from sale of common stock of $481,657 and paid $9,633 in costs for raising capital, and cash received from sale of Series B convertible preferred stock of $187,000.
As a result of the above activities, the Company recorded a decrease in cash of $15,546 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and a decrease in cash of $12,537 for the same comparable period ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered continuing operating losses, has a working capital deficit of $1,958,290, used cash flows in operating activities of $129,417, and has an accumulated deficit of $9,831,038 as of September 30, 2023. These factors, among others, raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity capital expenditures or capital resources.
