These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the information contained therein.
The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of April 30.
Special Purpose Entity
On March 19,2021, the Company entered into a Project Agreement with a third party whereby a limited liability entity was to be formed to construct, operate, maintain, and finance a hydrogen and gas-to-liquids plant in Texas. Under the terms of the Project Agreement, WT Blue Fuels, LLC (“WT”) was formed on October 7, 2021, with the Company obtaining a 40% ownership of WT. To date, no operations or activities have taken place within WT and the Company has paid no consideration for WT, has not contributed any funds to WT, or paid any expenses on behalf of WT. As such, as of September 30, 2021 there is no activity or investment for WT recorded on the Company’s books.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our significant accounting policies are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021 filed with the SEC on July 29, 2021.
Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its aforementioned subsidiaries and entities under common ownership. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The ownership interests in subsidiaries that are held by owners other than the Company are recorded as non-controlling interest and reported in our consolidated balance sheets within stockholders’ deficit. Losses attributed to the non-controlling interest and to the Company are reported separately in our consolidated statements of operations.
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 the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:
Office furniture and equipment | 10 years |
Computer equipment and software | 5 years |
Land improvements | 15 years |
Land easements | 10 years |
The land easements owned by the Company have a legal life of 10 years.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.
The Company will assess the recoverability of property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

Derivative liabilities
The Company has issued warrants and stock options, certain of which contain anti-dilution provisions were previously identified as derivatives. In addition, the Company has previously identified the conversion feature of convertible notes payable as derivatives. The number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate; therefore, through April 30, 2021 the Company concluded that the equity environment was tainted and all warrants, stock options and convertible debt were included in the value of the derivatives. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 it was determined that the Company could increase their authorized common shares at any time, therefore the environment was no longer deemed to be tainted and all derivative liabilities were written off the books.
Fair value of financial instruments
Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our derivative liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and estimated as follows:

Revenue Recognition
The Company has adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as amended, using the modified retrospective method, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. To date, the Company has no operating revenues; therefore, there was no cumulative effect of adopting the new standard and no impact on our consolidated financial statements. The new standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Project costs
All project costs incurred, including acquisition of refinery rights, planning, design and permitting, have been recorded as project costs and expensed as incurred.
Basic and diluted income (loss) per share
Basic net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss (available to common stockholders) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income or loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options, warrants, convertible debt and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock. For the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020 the dilutive effect of options, warrants, and convertible notes payable was 6,461,690 and 1,136,698, respectively.
Employee stock-based compensation
Pursuant to FASB ASC 718, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values. For the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no stock-based compensation to employees.
Issuance of shares for non-cash consideration
The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably determinable. The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of the standards issued by the FASB. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior-year period have been reclassified to conform with the current-year period presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. Under current GAAP, there are five accounting models for convertible debt instruments. ASU 2020-06 removes from U.S. GAAP the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, after adopting the ASU’s guidance, entities will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt. Instead, they will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, and for convertible preferred stock wholly as preferred stock (i.e., as a single unit of account), unless (1) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC 815 or (2) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. Additionally, for convertible debt instruments with substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the FASB decided to add disclosures about (1) the fair value amount and the level of fair value hierarchy of the entire instrument for public business entities and (2) the premium amount recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to its consolidated financial statements.
Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $66,845,286 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $1,750,358 at October 31, 2021, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. While we have received debt and equity funding during the period and have cash on hand of $273,686 at October 31, 2021, we still have a working capital deficit of $2,460,967, therefore there is a question of whether or not we have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months and have, or will obtain, sufficient capital investments to implement our business plan. Finally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established and emerging markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.
13 |
Table of Contents |
Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses – Related Parties
Accounts payable and accrued expenses to related parties, consisting primarily of consulting fees and expense reimbursements payable, totaled $59,023 and $272,834 as of October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively.
Effective July 1, 2019, we entered into a consulting agreement with Maple Resources Corporation (“Maple Resources”), a related party controlled by our President and CEO, that provides for payment of consulting fees and expense reimbursement related to business development, financing and other corporate activities. Effective January 1, 2020, the Maple Resources consulting agreement was amended to provide for monthly consulting fees of $17,897 and effective March 1, 2021 the Maple Resources consulting agreement was amended to provide for monthly consulting fees of $20,000. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, we incurred consulting fees and expense reimbursement to Maple Resources totaling $120,800 and $107,382, respectively. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 we made payments to Maple Resources of $125,899.
In addition, the consulting agreement provides for the issuance to Maple Resources of shares of our common stock each month with a value of $5,000, with the number of shares issued based on the average closing price of the stock during the prior month. In September 2021 we made a payment of $110,00 to pay for the consulting fees accrued through August 2021 under the consulting agreement, therefore $10,000 was still owed as of October 31, 2021.
Amounts included in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related parties due to Maple Resources totaled $30,000 ($10,000 payable in stock) and $118,540 ($90,000 payable in stock) as of October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively, which was inclusive of accrued interest due under the convertible notes described below.

Table of Contents |
Effective October 1, 2018, we entered into a consulting agreement with Leslie Doheny-Hanks, the wife of our President and CEO, to issue shares of our common stock each month with a value of $2,500, with the number of shares issued based on the average closing price of the stock during the prior month. The related party consultant provides certain administrative and accounting services and is reimbursed for expenses paid on behalf of the Company. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 we recorded $15,000 for the amount payable in stock under the consulting agreement and recorded expense reimbursements owed to Mrs. Hanks of $16,561. In September 2021 we made a payment of $55,000 to pay for the consulting fees accrued through August 2021 under the consulting agreement and made repayments of $28,602 for reimbursable expenses. Amounts included in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related parties due to Mrs. Hanks totaled $11,017 ($5,000 payable in stock) and $63,058 ($45,000 payable in stock) as of October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively.
Effective February 1, 2021 the Company entered into consulting agreements with three children of our President and CEO. The consulting agreements can be terminated 15 days after written notice of termination by either party subject to the agreement or December 31, 2021, whichever occurs first. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 we incurred $61,515 for fees and expense reimbursements to the children and paid $140,015. Amounts included in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related parties due to the children totaled $12,000 and $90,500 as of October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively.
Effective September 1, 2021, we entered into a consulting agreement with BNL Family Trust, owned by Bruce Lemons, Director, to issue shares of our common stock each month with a value of $2,500, with the number of shares issued based on the average closing price of the stock during the prior month. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 we recorded $5,000 for the amount payable in stock under the consulting agreement and made no payments, therefore the $5,000 was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related parties as of October 31, 2021.

| [3] | Effective December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to certain convertible notes with GS ($110,000 note dated September 13, 2018, $70,000 note dated September 18, 2018, $600,000 note dated October 5, 2018, and $110,000 note dated February 20, 2019) to extend the notes due dates from December 20, 2020 to December 31, 2020. In conjunction with the extension, the Company entered into an 18% convertible note in the principal amount of $80,000. The note was issued at a discount and the Company received net proceeds of $75,000after an original issue discount of $5,000. GS, at its option, may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of common stock at a 40% discount from the lowest trading price during the 20 days prior to conversion (with a floor of $3.00 per share during the first six months after issuance). In June of 2021 the Company issued 11,814 common shares to convert $40,000 worth of principal and $2,027 worth of accrued interest under the terms of the agreement. In September of 2021 the Company entered into a settlement agreement with GS where 108,878 common shares were issued to convert the remaining $40,000 worth of principal and $2,462 worth of accrued interest under the terms of the agreement and $4,584 worth of accrued interest was forgiven and recorded as a gain on extinguishment of liabilities. |

| [5] | Effective March 26, 2021, the Company issued and delivered to GS a 10% convertible note in the principal amount of $82,000. The note was issued at a discount and the Company received net proceeds of $78,500 after payment of $3,500 of fees and expenses of the lender and its counsel. During the first 180 days, GS, at its option, could convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of common stock at a price of $0.015 per share and thereafter at 34% discount from the lowest trading price during the 15 days prior to conversion. The Company could redeem the note at redemption prices ranging from 110% to 118% during the first 180 days after issuance. During the six months ended July 31, 2021, the Company repaid this note in full. |
In addition to the Convertible Notes outstanding as of July 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, as noted above, effective June 22, 2021, the Company issued and delivered to GS a 10% convertible note in the principal amount of $82,000. The note was issued at a discount and the Company received net proceeds of $78,500 after payment of $3,500 of fees and expenses of the lender and its counsel. During the first 180 days, GS, at its option, could convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of common stock at a price of $0.015 per share and thereafter at 34% discount from the average of the two lowest trading prices during the 15 prior trading days including the day of conversion. The Company could redeem the note at redemption prices ranging from 110% to 118% during the first 180 days after issuance. During the six months ended October 31, 2021, the Company repaid this note in full.
NOTE 8 – PPP LOANS PAYABLE
With an effective date of January 25, 2021, a loan to the Company was approved under the terms and conditions of the Paycheck Protection Program of the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and the CARES Act (2020) (H.R. 748) (15 U.S.C. 636 et seq.) (“the Act”) in the amount of $150,000 and was funded on January 26, 2020. During the six months ended October 31, 2021, Company was notified that its loan was forgiven pursuant to the provisions of the Act, therefore $150,000 was recorded as a gain on extinguishment of liabilities.

NOTE 9 – SBA BRIDGE LOAN PAYABLE
On July 14, 2020, the Company received $10,000pursuant to the SBA’s Express Bridge Loan Pilot Program. This program allows small businesses who have a business relationship with an SBA Express Lender to access up to $25,000 quickly. The funds were advanced to the Company since it had applied for an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”). The loan had a balance of $10,000as of October 31, 2021.
NOTE 10 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
In a series of subscription agreements, the Company issued warrants in prior years that contain certain anti-dilution provisions that have previously been identified as derivatives. In addition, the Company previously identified the conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock as derivatives. The number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate; therefore, through April 30, 2021 the Company concluded that the equity environment was tainted and all warrants, stock options and convertible debt were included in the value of the derivatives. During the three months ended July 31, 2021, it was determined that the Company could increase their authorized common shares at any time, based on an agreement of the majority of voters to do so when needed, therefore the environment was no longer deemed to be tainted and all derivative liabilities were written off the books.
The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the issuance date and at each subsequent reporting date, using a multinomial lattice model simulation. The model is based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes.
During the six months ended October 31, 2021, we had the following activity in our derivative liabilities:

Warrants
The Company has issued warrants in prior years to investors in a series of subscription agreements in equity financings or for other stock-based compensation. Certain of the warrants contain anti-dilution provisions that the Company has previously identified as derivatives. The Company estimates the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the warrants based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes and considering the previous existence of a tainted equity environment (see Note 10).

During the six months ended October 31, 2021 the Company granted 487,263 warrants issued to warrant holders pursuant to anti-dilution provisions and 6,493,000warrants issued in conjunction with the sale of common stock (see Common Stock Issuances above). As the fair value of the warrants granted would have had a net zero impact to equity (increasing additional paid in capital and recording offering costs for the same amount), the Company did not break out or complete a separate valuation of the warrant granted in association with the capital raise. Of the 6,493,000 warrants granted,3,580,000are prefunded, therefore have a zero exercise price and no expiration. The remaining warrants have a 5 year life and 2,575,500 of the warrants have a $0.80 exercise price while the other 337,500 have a $1.00 exercise price.
NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

A penny stock is generally defined to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined in Rule 3a51-1) of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto.
Overview
Business Plan
MMEX Resources Corporation was formed as a Nevada corporation in 2005. The current management team lead an acquisition of the Company (then named Management Energy, Inc.) through a reverse merger completed in 2010 and thereafter changed the Company’s name to MMEX Mining Corporation. In 2016, the Company changed its name to MMEX Resources Corporation to reflect the change in its business plan to an energy focus in the Americas.
The Company is a development-stage company focusing on the acquisition, development and financing of oil, gas, refining and infrastructure projects in Texas and South America, recently announcing it intends to develop solar energy to power multiple planned projects producing hydrogen and ultra-low sulfur fuels combined with carbon dioxide (CO2) capture in Texas.
Current Business Operations and Strategy
Since 2016, the focus of our business has been to build crude oil distillation units and refining facilities (CDUs) in the Permian Basin in West Texas. We revised our business plan in 2021 to move MMEX to clean energy use and production, leveraging our history, management and business relationships from the traditional energy sector. The focus of our business plan is to
| · | Modify our planned CDU projects in Pecos County (West Texas) to produce potentially hydrogen and ultra-low sulfur fuel products combined with CO2 capture. |
|
|
|
| · | Develop additional megawatts of solar power for distribution to our projects in West Texas. |
27 |
Table of Contents |
Our immediate plans are to pursue the following three projects powered by solar energy:
Project 1: A clean fuels 10,000 barrel per day facility at our Pecos County site to produce 87° gasoline, ultra-low sulphur diesel and low-sulphur fuel oil, utilizing the Ultra Fuels Plus with carbon capture concept.
Project 2: We have teamed with Black Tree Group to develop a “blue hydrogen” facility in Pecos County to produce hydrogen with carbon capture and storage employing steam methane reformer technology with the abundant natural gas supplies in the immediate area as the feedstock.
Project 3: A parallel “green hydrogen” plant in Pecos County, which plans to utilize the proprietary electrolizer technology of a major international technology partner.
We are in various stages of negotiations with major company off-takes that range from specialty air and gas companies to international trading companies. The proposed distribution network of liquid and gaseous hydrogen from our planned projects will be by truck and rail.
Results of Operations
Revenues
We have not yet begun to generate revenues.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses increased to $274,493 for the three months ended October 31, 2021 from $179,350 for the three months ended October 31, 2020 and increased to $717,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 from $362,675 for the six months ended October 31, 2020. The increase resulted from higher professional fee costs, which included increased costs for legal, public relations, and consulting services.
Project Costs
Our project costs increased to $1,006,666 for the three months ended October 31, 2021 from $51,985 for the three months ended October 31, 2020 and increased to $1,009,726 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 from $89,685 for the six months ended October 31, 2020. We expense the direct costs incurred on our projects, including acquisition of rights, planning, design and permitting. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 we entered into, and paid for, planning and design contracts for our project development. The levels of spending on our projects will vary from period to period based on availability of financing and will be expensed as project costs are incurred.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Our depreciation and amortization expense results from the depreciation of land improvements and amortization of land easements and totaled to $9,246 and $8,720 for the three months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The depreciation and amortization was $17,964 and $17,438 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
28 |
Table of Contents |
Other Income (Expense)
Our interest expense includes interest accrued on debt, amortization of debt discount and penalties assessed on debt. Interest expense totaled $57,645 and $171,054 for the three months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and totaled $262,255 and $725,143 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 202, respectively. The decrease in interest expense is due to a lower levels of new non-related party convertible debt in the current period, resulting in less amortization of debt discount to interest expense, less loan penalties incurred in the period, and reduced debt balances as a result of debt being paid off or converted into shares common stock.
We reported gains on derivative liabilities of $0 and $102,341 for the three months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $3,010,042 and $1,289,693 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We had previously identified the variable conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable as derivatives. We estimated the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the warrants based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and management’s estimates of various potential equity financing transactions. These inputs were subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities would fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation has been material. During the six months ended October 31, 2021 all derivative liabilities were written off the books, resulting in a larger gain in the current period than in the prior period.
We reported a net gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $196,166 and $136,310 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021, respectively, which could be explained by the fact that our loan from the Small Business Administration was forgiven and we had other vendors forgive us for amounts owing. We reported no gain or loss on extinguishment of liabilities for the three or six months ended October 31, 2020.
Net Income (Loss)
As a result of the above, we reported net income (loss) of $(1,151,884) and $(308,768) for the three months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1,139,407 and $94,752 for the six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Non-Controlling Interest in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries
Currently, we have no activity in our consolidated subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest in income of consolidated subsidiaries was $0 for all periods presented.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to the Company
Because we had no non-controlling interest in income of consolidated subsidiaries, net income (loss) attributed to the Company was the same as net income (loss).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working Capital
As of October 31, 2021, we had current assets of $309,119, comprised of cash and prepaid expenses, and current liabilities of $2,770,086, resulting in a working capital deficit of $2,460,967.

This was offset by our non-cash gains of $3,146,352, a decrease in accounts payable of $171,857 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party of $213,811.
We used net cash of $96,780 in operating activities for the six months ended October 31, 2020 as a result of our net income of $94,752, non-cash expenses totaling $187,397, decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $16,187, and increases in accounts payable of $140,431, accrued expenses of $524,196 and accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party of $229,950, partially offset by non-cash gain of $1,289,693.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended October 31, 2021 was $255,504, comprised of the purchase of land and costs incurred for land improvements during the period. We had no net cash provided by or used in investing activities for the six months ended October 31, 2020.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended October 31, 2021 was $2,474,019, comprised of proceeds from notes payable of $200,000, proceeds from convertible notes payable of $78,500, and proceeds from the sale of our common stock of $3,000,000. This was offset by repayments of notes payable of $200,000, repayments of convertible notes payable of $255,331, and offering costs incurred of $349,150.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended October 31, 2020 was $30,000, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable - related party of $20,000 and proceeds from an SBA express bridge loan of $10,000.
Going Concern Uncertainty
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $66,845,286 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $1,750,358 at October 31, 2021, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. While we have received debt and equity funding during the period and have cash on hand of $273,686 at October 31, 2021, we still have a working capital deficit of $2,460,967. Therefore, there is a question of whether or not we have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months and have, or will obtain, sufficient capital investments to implement our business plan. Finally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established and emerging markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.
30 |
Table of Contents |
Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
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 effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For further information on our significant accounting policies see the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021 filed with the SEC and Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report. There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended October 31, 2021.
ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined) in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Securities Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
31 |
Table of Contents |
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or 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. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2021. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have identified the following material weaknesses:
| 1. | As of October 31, 2021, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness. |
|
|
|
| 2. | As of October 31, 2021, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. |
|
|
|
| 3. | As of October 31, 2021, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification and authorization of related party transactions. |
|
|
|
| 4. | As of October 31, 2021, we had no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to ensure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner. |
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2021, based on the criteria established in "2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
