NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 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. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Going Concern 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has not generated revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. The Company has historically obtained funds through private placement offerings of equity and debt securities. Management believes that it will be able to continue to raise funds by sale of its securities to its existing shareholders and prospective new investors to provide additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing. 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. To date, the Company has not had significant revenues and is in the development stage.

Cash and Cash Equivalent

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements, include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Intangible Assets

The Company has patent applications to protect the inventions and processes behind its proprietary bio-based back-sheet, a protective covering for the back of photovoltaic solar modules traditionally made from petroleum-based film. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives continue to be amortized over their useful lives

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an employee, consultant, or director are required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Compensation expense for options granted to employees and non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted is re-measured each period.

Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment and stock price volatility.  The Company used Black Scholes to value its stock option awards which incorporated the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free rate, dividend rate, and estimated life. The stock options terminate seven (7) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment. As of September 30, 2019, 15,950,000 stock options are outstanding.

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations

Net earnings (Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the effect of stock options and stock based awards (Note 4), plus the assumed conversion of convertible debt (Note 5).   

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share. The inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has excluded 15,950,000 stock options and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,835,786, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share. The inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has excluded 15,950,000 stock options, and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $2,602,220, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2019, the amounts reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

Fair value is defined 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 Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at September 30, 2019:

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2018, FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 2018-07, (Topic 505) – “Shared-Based Payment Arrangements with Nonemployees”, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees will be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Under the ASU 2018-07, the measurement of equity-classified nonemployee share-based payments will be fixed on the grant date, as defined in ASC 718, and will use the term nonemployee vesting period, rather than requisite service period. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted if financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-07, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In August 2018, the FASB issued to accounting standards update ASU 2018-13, (Topic 820) - “Fair Value Measurement”, which changes the unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-13, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

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

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company issued 50,016,700 shares of common stock upon conversion of convertible promissory notes in the amount of $431,875, plus accrued interest of $53,083, with an aggregate fair value loss on conversion of $789,084 at prices ranging from $0.0192 - $0.0437.

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price fluctuations.

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018

The convertible notes issued and described in Note 5 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as a result of the convertible notes (“Notes”) issued that were accounted for as derivative liabilities, we determined that the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $489,608, based upon a Binomial-Model calculation. We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company converted $431,875 in principal of convertible notes, plus accrued interest of $53,083. As a result of the conversion of these notes the Company recorded a fair value loss on the conversion of debt in the amount of $789,084 in the statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. At September 30, 2019, the fair value of the derivative liability was $10,822,442.

For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used the Binomial lattice valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice valuation model for the derivative are as follows:

Management has evaluated subsequent events according to the requirements of ASC TOPIC 855 and has determined that there are the following subsequent events:

On October 28, 2019, the Company issued 1,000 shares of Series A preferred stock to the CEO of the Company as a bonus in the amount of$20,000. The holders of Series A preferred stock have the right to vote in an amount equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total voting power of the Company’s shareholders on any matter submitted to the Company’s shareholders.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements.

Certain statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation” below, and elsewhere in this quarterly report, are not related to historical results, and are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements present our expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements frequently are accompanied by such words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other words and terms of similar meaning. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements, or timeliness of such results. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such forward-looking statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this quarterly report. Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or to persons acting in our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements and risk factors set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2019, and in other reports filed by us with the SEC.

You should read the following description of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report.

Overview

We are developing innovative technologies to increase the capacity and reduce the cost of storing electrical energy. We have previously developed an innovative material technology to reduce the cost per watt of electricity produced by Photovoltaic, or PV, solar modules.

We are currently working on a silicon anode additive material technology intended to drastically increase the storage capacity of current and future generation of lithium-ion batteries while lowering the cost of storing electrical energy. The lower cost of electrical energy storage will result in reduced cost per watt of electricity produced by PV solar modules as well.

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2006, as BioSolar Labs, Inc. Our name was changed to BioSolar, Inc. on June 8, 2006. Our principal executive offices are located at 27936 Lost Canyon Road, Suite 202, Santa Clarita, California 91387, and our telephone number is (661) 251-0001. Our fiscal year end is December 31.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using a Binomial lattice valuation model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these unaudited condensed financial statements, include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our cash, cash equivalents, investments, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Management reviewed currently issued pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

OPERATING EXPENSES 

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses decreased by $3,940 to $103,260 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $107,200 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. This decreased in G&A expenses was the result of a decrease in travel expenses of $2,866, with an overall decrease of $1,074 in other G&A expenses.

Research and Development

Research and Development (“R&D”) expenses decreased by $30,415 to $60,471 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $90,886 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. This overall decrease in R&D expenses was the result of a decrease in contracting of outside services.

Other Income/(Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) decreased by $(10,472,397) to $(689,503) for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $9,782,894 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was the result of a decrease in non-cash gain on change in fair value of our derivative instruments of $10,198,814, an increase in interest expense of $123,975, which includes non-cash expense of amortization of debt discount in the amount of $115,826, and an increase in interest income of $3, with an increase in fair value loss on conversion of debt of $149,611. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was primarily due to the net change in the fair value of our derivative instruments and amortization of debt discount.

Net Income (Loss)

Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $(855,986), compared to net income of $9,583,571 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net income was due to a decrease in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues.  

Results of Operations – Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

OPERATING EXPENSES 

General and Administrative Expenses

G&A expenses increased by $16,473 to $327,281 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $310,808 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. This increase in G&A expenses was the result of an increase in professional fees of $22,545, and an overall decrease of $6,072 in other G&A expenses.

Research and Development

R&D expenses decreased by $3,723 to $180,604 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $184,327 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. This overall decrease in R&D expenses was the result of a decrease in contracting of outside services.

Other Income/(Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) decreased by $(22,244,698) to $2,198,378 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $(20,046,320) for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was the result of an decrease in non-cash loss on change in fair value of the derivative instruments of $23,270,930, an increase in interest expense of $471,889, which includes non-cash expense of amortization of debt discount in the amount of $440,699, and an increase in interest income of $7, with an increase in fair value loss on conversion of debt of $554,350. The decrease in other income and (expenses) was primarily due to the net change in the fair value of our derivative instruments and amortization of debt discount.

Net Income (Loss)

Our net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $1,684,695, compared to a net loss of $(20,546,035) for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net income was due to an increase in non-cash other income (expenses) associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues.  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

The condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we did not generate any revenues, incurred net income of $1,684,695, and used cash of $532,620 in operations. As of September 30, 2019, we had a working capital deficiency of $12,741,198 and shareholders’ deficit of $14,041,473. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we obtained funding through the sale of our securities. Management believes that we will be able to continue to raise funds through the sale of our securities to existing and new investors. Management believes that funding from existing and prospective new investors and future revenue will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of our core business operations.

As of September 30, 2019, we had a working capital deficit of $12,741,198 compared to a working capital deficit of $15,062,687 for the year ended December 31, 2018. This decrease in capital deficit of $2,321,489 was due primarily to a decrease in cash, accounts payable, and derivative liability associated with our outstanding promissory notes, with an increase in prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, and an increase in the issuance of convertible promissory notes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we used $(532,620) of cash for operating activities, as compared to $(505,707) for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities for the current period was a result of an increase in research and development cost, and professional fees, compared to the prior nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, were $0 and $(5,770), respectively. The overall net change in investing activities was primarily due to an increase in the purchase of equipment in the prior period.

Cash provided from financing activities was $523,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $494,000 for the prior period ended September 30, 2018. The increase in financing was due to an increase in convertible promissory notes issued by the Company. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock, which have limitations on conversion. The lender is limited to no more than a 4.99% beneficial ownership of the outstanding shares of common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 134, as amended. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through financing transactions and future revenue. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of private placement of our securities, as we currently have not generated any revenues.

Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements as of September 30, 2019 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent upon our ability to generate revenue, which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS

We are engaged in the development of innovative technologies that increase the capacity and reduce the cost of storing electrical energy. We are currently focusing on developing a high capacity silicon alloy anode material technology to increase the storage capacity and reduce cost of the current and future generation of lithium-ion batteries by 2020.

Our plan of operation within the next nine months is to utilize our cash balances to develop our silicon-based anode technology for high capacity, high density, and low cost Lithium-ion batteries.  We believe that our current cash and investment balances will be sufficient to support development activity and general and administrative expenses for the next three months. Management estimates that it will require additional cash resources during 2019, based upon its current operating plan and condition. We expect increased expenses during the fourth quarter of 2019 through our fiscal year 2020 as we ramp up prototyping efforts for Lithium-ion batteries incorporating our electrode material.  We will be investigating additional financing alternatives, including equity and/or debt financing. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next fifteen months, we may be forced to reduce the size of our organization, which could have a material adverse impact on, or cause us to curtail and/or cease the development of our products

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
