Note 1: Nature of Operations, Reverse Merger and Going Concern

Nature of Operations

Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (“Rainmaker” or the “Company” or “RAKR”) is a Nevada company which operates Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (“RWI”) with its head office in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The Company distributes two main types of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing technologies: (1) Air-to-Water (“AW”), which harvests fresh water from humidity in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water (“WW”), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technology can be wind, solar, or use conventional power sources (grid or generator), is deployable anywhere, and leaves no carbon trace if renewable resources are deployed.

Our post-restructuring business focus will deliver Water-as-a-Service (“WaaS”) i.e., selling water directly to the customer on a per liter basis. This will be executed by forming local joint venture partnerships who will in turn own the Rainmaker and related equipment. In most if not all cases, RAKR will have an ownership stake in the JV the percentage of which will be determined by the relative contribution of the stakeholders.

As part of the asset restructuring, Rainmaker retains a 12% interest in RHBV which consists of the innovation and manufacturing center located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. RAKR will purchase equipment on a favorable cost-plus formula going forward by virtue of a long-term distribution agreement.

The Company will focus its future on the development of WaaS projects globally and has already set up such projects that are ready for deployment or already deployed in Turks and Caicos, Bahamas and Sri Lanka. Our business development activities are expected to yield more definitive agreements during 2021. WaaS involves the selling of produced (AW) or purified water (WW) on a per liter basis either in a bottle for drinking or in bulk for industrial and commercial services. This requires the Company to deliver its operational, maintenance, marketing and sales expertise in combination with local partners in most cases. These projects will often require working with complementary technology for post treatment of water, mineralization, bottling plant and energy companies. Business activities include the full integration of such technologies.

Reverse Merger

RWI was incorporated on July 21, 2014 under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) among the Company, RWI and RWI’s 45 shareholders. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562 common shares in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 66,818,759 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, or 7.4 shares for each share of RWI. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company’s former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. (“CJT”) was changed on April 24, 2017 in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the transaction. As part of the merger, net liabilities of $235,495 were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. As a result of the Merger the Company now trades on the OTC Pink Sheet under the trading symbol RAKR.

Merger with Sphere 3D

On July 15, 2020 Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ: ANY) announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which it would have acquired all of the outstanding securities of Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. Upon closing, Sphere 3D’s name would have changed to Rainmaker Worldwide Inc., and its business model would focus on Water-as-a-Service (“WaaS”). Rainmaker management would have assumed operational leadership of the combined entity.

Under the terms of that agreement, Rainmaker, would have merged with S3D Nevada Inc., a Nevada company wholly owned by Sphere 3D, and the merged entity would have been a wholly owned subsidiary of Sphere 3D.

Rainmaker shareholders would have received 0.33 of a share of Sphere 3D for each whole share of Rainmaker exchanged and one-third of a warrant or option for each whole warrant or option then held by such Rainmaker shareholder. Upon completion of the transaction Sphere 3D expected to remain listed on the NASDAQ market and would have changed its name to Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. and apply to change its trading symbol from ANY to RAIN. After completion of the transaction, it was expected that current holders of Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. would own approximately 80% of Sphere 3D, on a fully diluted basis, as a result of their exchange of securities in the transaction.

The transaction was subject to completion of an equity financing, or series of financings, for a minimum of US$15 million at a share price to be mutually agreed prior to closing and such other customary regulatory and shareholder approvals, including the approval of NASDAQ. Closing was originally expected to occur prior to December 31, 2020 but was subject to extension to February 28, 2021 under certain circumstances if mutually agreed by the parties.

On September 14, 2020 Sphere 3D announced that the Merger Agreement had been amended to change the ratio of Sphere 3D stock to be received by Rainmaker shareholders (the “Amendment”). This change was intended to better reflect the current market values of the respective companies. At closing, holders of Rainmaker common shares and holders of Rainmaker preferred shares would have each received 1/15th of a share of Sphere 3D per common or preferred share that they hold.

As part of the Amendment, Sphere 3D also agreed to advance US$1.85 million to Rainmaker by way of a secured convertible note (the “Note”) for Rainmaker to sustain multiple growth initiatives. The funds were used to fulfill recent contracts and expand its equipment production capacity. (See Note 3).

The Merger Agreement was adjusted to become an asset purchase agreement January 3, 2021 with the same business focus, Water-as-a-Service (WaaS), which ultimately was terminated on February 12, 2021 and was subsequently announced publicly. Rainmaker is continuing its ordinary course of business focusing on WaaS.

Going Concern

The Company has incurred continuing losses from its operations and has an accumulated deficit of $70,434,502. There are no assurances the Company will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms or that cash flows generated from its operations will be sufficient to meet its current operating costs and required debt service. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its business, which could harm its financial condition and operating results. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue ongoing operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The Company’s ability to continue its operations and to pay its obligations when they become due is contingent upon the Company obtaining additional financing. Management’s plans include seeking to procure additional funds through debt and equity financings to enable it to meet its operating needs including current and future sales orders. In addition, revenues are being forecasted at the operational level considering the imminent implementation of local JV-based WaaS agreements once travel restrictions due to COVID permit.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial statements presented are for the entity Rainmaker and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) and Rainmaker Holland B.V. (“RHBV” Discontinued Operations) as a consolidated entity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

All accounting policies are chosen to ensure the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability.

Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. The financial statements of discontinued operations and the subsidiary located outside of the United States are measured in their functional currency: Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) reports in Canadian dollars and Rainmaker Holland B.V. reports in Euros. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated using average annual exchange rates. Non-monetary assets are translated at their historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

Intangible Assets

The Company acquired intellectual property including know-how and patents in the December 2015 Asset Purchase Agreement whereby Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) purchased the assets of Dutch Rainmaker B.V. (“DRM”) and Wind En Water Technologie Holding B.V. (“WWT”). Commencing January 2016, the Company has amortized the patents and know-how using the average life expectancy of the patents which is 14 years. As discussed in Note 19 (Discontinued Operations), these intangible assets are part of the restructuring agreement.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.

Depreciation is provided at rates estimated to write off the cost of the relevant assets less their estimated residual values by equal annual amounts over their expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Depreciation periods for the Company’s property and equipment are as follows:

Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives of Property and Equipment 

Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.

Demonstration Equipment

Demonstration equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.

Depreciation for the demonstration equipment is at a rate estimated to write off the cost of the equipment less its estimated residual value by an equal annual amount over its expected useful life. The residual value and expected useful life of the demonstration equipment is reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard update (‘ASU”), 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the modified retrospective method, and the Company determined the new guidance does not change the Company’s policy of revenue recognition.

The Company has three sources of revenue. The first is through the direct sales of water production and purification systems. A contract with a customer is established once an agreement is signed and the initial down payment is received. Each transaction price is established in the signed contract. Unearned revenue is recognized upon receipt of the down payment for the system. The revenue is recognized once title of the system transfers to the customer. The nature of the business of equipment sales implies there is only one performance obligation which is delivery of the end product to the customer. Our contracts outline each party’s rights and obligations including the terms and timing of payments.

The second is through participation in WaaS partnerships. These partnerships will purchase the machines from the Company and the revenue is recognized in accordance with the corresponding rules. These partnerships will also generate revenue sharing as water is sold in accordance with the various agreements and that revenue is recognized in the period it is earned. The third source of revenue is in exchange for operating, maintenance and professional services to these joint ventures. That revenue is recognized in the period it is earned.

In June 2018, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the revenue recognition and measurement issues for grants, contracts, and similar arrangements, ASU Topic 958. Government grants and contracts are agreements that generally provide cost reimbursement for certain types of expenditures in return for research and development activities over a contractually defined period. During 2019, RHBV received a Grant from the European Commission. That Grant and associated contract with European Commission has been analyzed and it has been determined it is a non-exchange transaction and falls within the scope of ASU 958, and revenue should be recognized in accordance with Topic 958 guidance. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue from its grant and contract in the period during which the related costs are incurred, provided that the conditions under which the grants and contracts were provided have been met and only perfunctory performance obligations are outstanding.

In 2019, the Company was awarded a €2.3 million European Commission Grant to develop and construct the first off-grid water desalination system 100% powered by renewable energy. The unit will be commissioned and tested in the Canary Islands. The project duration was originally to run September 1, 2019 to August 31, 2021. An extension to May 31, 2022 was granted due to delays related to COVID. RHBV post-restructuring retains all rights and obligations under this Grant once the project is complete.

Related Party Transactions

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to directly or indirectly control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Related party transactions that are in the normal course of business and have commercial substance are measured at the exchange amount.

Share-based Payment Expense

The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for stock awards granted to employees, directors, officers, and consultants. Share-based awards to employees are measured at the fair value of the related share-based awards. Share-based payments to others are valued based on the related services rendered or goods received or if this cannot be reliably measured, on the fair value of the instruments issued. Issuances of shares are valued using the fair value of the shares at the time of grant; issuances of options are valued using the Black-Scholes model with assumptions based on historical experience and future expectations.

Asset Retirement Obligation

Included in the assets acquired in the December 2015 Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company obtained an obsolete wind turbine located in Leeuwarden, Netherlands. In accordance with ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations and pursuant to the guidelines of the City of Leeuwarden for land leases, the Company was required to decommission the turbine including disassembly and removal of wind turbine generator and tower, substation and interconnection facilities, as well as foundation for the tower, and to provide for restoration of the property to its original state. The Company recorded an initial asset retirement obligation at fair value as a liability in the period in which a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets occurs. The liability is accreted each period over the maximum term of the contractual agreements. The Company records the offsetting asset to the initial obligation as an increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset and depreciates that cost over the maximum term of the contractual agreements. In July 2020, the asset was dismantled, and the asset retirement obligation eliminated. (See Note 16).

Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for as debt or equity according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Marketing, Advertising and Promotional Costs

As required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States, the Company records marketing costs as an expense in the year to which such costs relate. The Company does not defer amounts on its year-end consolidated balance sheets with respect to marketing costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Segment Reporting

ASC 280-10, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has reportable segments in the United States, Canada and The Netherlands (discontinued operations).

Schedule of Segment Reporting 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the year. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.

Loss per Share

The Company reports loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the year. The Company has options, debentures and other potentially dilutive instruments extending to the latest date of April 30, 2026. To the extent that the fully diluted shares exceed the authorized capital at any point in time, action will be taken by the Executive Management and Board of the Company to ensure those shares are available for distribution.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

Income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted by the date of the statement of financial position.

Equity-Settled Transactions

The costs of equity-settled transactions with employees are measured by reference to the fair value at the date on which they are granted.

The costs of equity-settled transactions are recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (“the vesting date”). The cumulative expense is recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profit or loss charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period and the corresponding amount is represented in share-based compensation reserve.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition, which are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market condition is satisfied provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement or is beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

Inventory

Inventory and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The production cost of inventory includes an appropriate proportion of depreciation and production overheads based the ratio of indirect vs. direct costs. Cost is determined on the following bases: Raw materials and consumables are valued at cost on a first in, first out (FIFO) basis; finished products are valued at raw material cost, labor cost and a proportion of manufacturing overhead expenses.

Financial Instruments

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure 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).

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

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

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in the circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no such transfers during the periods being reported.

Customer Concentration

Due to the infancy of the Company’s market penetration, current sales are concentrated on a limited number of customers.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. Cash balances are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”) up to CAD$100,000 per commercial bank and the Netherlands Deposit Guarantee Scheme (DGS) up to EUR100,000 per commercial bank. From time to time, cash in deposit accounts may exceed the insurance limits thus the excess would be at risk of loss. For purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Note 3: Convertible Notes Payable

On June 30, 2017, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. held unsecured, matured and past due convertible notes payable of $235,495. On the date of the Merger, the above convertible notes payable amount were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. On July 3, 2017, $180,500 of the convertible notes payable was forgiven and recorded as debt forgiveness in the statement of operations.

The following summarizes the above notes including notes forgiven:

Following the Merger, $13,100 of the convertible notes payable was converted into stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per stock for a total of 13,100,000 shares of common stock as per the terms of the notes.

On May 14, 2020, $100 of convertible notes payable was converted into stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per stock for a total of 100,000 shares of common stock as per the terms of the notes.

On June 15, 2020, $2,783.53 of convertible notes payable was converted into stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per stock for a total of 2,783,530 shares of common stock as per the terms of the notes.

On June 29, 2020, $3,333.30 of convertible notes payable was converted into stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per stock for a total of 3,333,302 shares of common stock as per the terms of the notes.

As a result of the above conversions there are $8,200 convertible notes remaining that came into the Company through from the July 3, 2017 merger.

On May 10, 2018, the Company entered into a $200,000 unsecured, convertible promissory note maturing on July 10, 2018. The note was interest bearing at a rate of 12% interest per annum with no interest payments due until maturity and convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a fixed price of $0.35 per share. The holder of the note was issued 100,000 shares of common stock in lieu of set-up fees and interest for the term of the loan which was discounted against note in the amount of $25,000, the market value of the shares issued on the date of the note. The Company evaluated the note for a beneficial conversion feature at the date of issuance noting that there was no BCF related. The note was in default from July 10, 2018 through January 20, 2019 and thus in addition to the above 12%, the Company accrued penalty interest at the rate of 1.5% per month as per the terms of the notes.

In exchange for the above note dated May 10, 2018, the holder advanced the Company an additional $75,000 and the Company issued a new note on January 21, 2019 in the amount of $307,219 which included accrued interest in the amount of $32,219 and was due on April 20, 2019. The new note is interest bearing at a rate of 15% interest per annum with no interest payments due until maturity and convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a fixed price of $0.05 per share. The note also contained a bonus conversion feature which states that if the holder exercises their option to convert, then the holder will be able to convert 115% of the principal and accrued interest on the date of conversion. The conversion feature expired July 9, 2019 and was not exercised. The Company evaluated the note for a beneficial conversion feature at the date of issuance noting that there was no BCF related.

Note 15: Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. This method requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s deferred tax assets relate to net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards that were derived from operating losses and stock-based compensation from prior years. A full valuation allowance has been applied to the Company’s deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if the Company determines it is more likely than not that the related deferred income tax assets will be realized. At September 30, 2021, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards, which are available to offset future taxable income, of $5,270,523. The Company’s NOL carryforwards can be carried forward to offset future taxable income for a period of 20 years for each tax year’s loss. These NOL carryforwards begin to expire in 2037.

Overview

Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (“RAKR”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a Nevada corporation originally formed on February 27, 1998. The corporation became RAKR on July 3, 2017 in a reverse merger. We are currently developing Water-as-a-Service (“WaaS”) projects in various locations around the globe. We are implementing these projects using proprietary technology of our former subsidiary based in the Netherlands, Rainmaker Holland B.V. (“RHBV”). The Company retains a 12% ownership stake in RHBV as well as having strategic and management influence by virtue of a seat on RHBV’s Advisory Board. RAKR retains access to such technology based on a cost-plus formula, which was negotiated in an exclusive WaaS Distribution Agreement with RHBV.

Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (“RWI”), an Ontario Corporation, was formed in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada on July 21, 2014, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act to finance and commercialize patented technology and to consolidate the assets, intellectual property, and executive management expertise of Dutch Rainmaker BV (“DRM”). RWI is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. DRM was originally started by Piet Oosterling as a technology company focused on delivering decentralized water solutions to water scarce regions in the world. In his lifetime, Mr. Oosterling wrote and commercialized over 400 patents. His wealth of knowledge and expertise continues to inspire and guide the Company’s executive management team and policy, our distribution partners, and RHBV.

On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) among the Company, RWI and RWI’s 45 shareholders at the time. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562 common shares of stock in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all of the issued and outstanding shares of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 66,818,759 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, or 7.4 shares for each share of RWI. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company’s former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. (“CJT”) was changed on April 24, 2017 in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the consummation of the transaction. As part of the Merger, net liabilities of $235,495 were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. As a result of the Merger, the Company now trades on the OTC Pink Sheet under the trading symbol, RAKR.

On March 31, 2021, the Company, including RWI, entered a business agreement with RHBV, DRM and Wind en Water Technologie Holding B.V. (“WWT”). These companies were considered related parties on that date in virtue of stock ownership exceeding 10%. The parties agreed to an exchange of contractual obligations, debt owed, and shares of common stock in full settlement of all obligations among the parties. The resultant Financial Statements, in accordance with ASC 205-20-45-1E, reflect the impact of these exchanges to the Company. These initiatives were taken subsequent to the mutual decision among the parties to cancel the Sphere 3D Asset Purchase Agreement. After the termination of this agreement, the Company and RHBV decided to restructure in order to optimize business operations and broaden access to the capital markets. The Company and RHBV, as mutual shareholders in each other’s company, continue to pursue the mission and objective of providing low-cost water to communities and commercial entities in need of water solutions.

The Company operates out of its head office based in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. In support of its WaaS project implementation strategy the Company plans to utilize will use two main types of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing/purification technologies: (1) Air-to-Water (“AW”), which harvests fresh water from humidity and heat in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water (“WW”), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technologies can be wind driven, solar based, or can use conventional power sources, such as grid or generator. It is deployable anywhere and leaves no carbon trace, if renewable resources are deployed.

The Company’s current and ongoing focus is to deliver WaaS, i.e., selling water directly to the customer on a per liter basis, using the two Rainmaker technologies discussed above or other complementary technologies acquired or licensed by the Company. This focus shall be administered by forming local joint venture partnerships (“JV”) where demand exists with profitable pricing scenarios. The JVs will in turn own the water delivery system and related equipment. In most if not all cases, RAKR expects to have ownership stakes in JVs. Ownership percentages will typically be determined by the relative contribution of the stakeholders.

The Company has concurrently planned and implemented various WaaS projects in Turks and Caicos, Bahamas and Sri Lanka. Moreover, although there can be no assurance, our business development activities are expected to yield more commercial contracts in 2021. Principally, WaaS involves the selling of produced (AW) or purified water (WW) on a per liter basis either in a bottle for drinking or in bulk for industrial and commercial services. This commercial activity requires the Company to deliver operational, maintenance, marketing and sales expertise in combination with local partners in most dealings. Usually, projects often require working with complementary technology for post treatment of water and mineralization in tandem with bottling plants and renewable energy businesses. Additional commercial activities include but are not limited to the integration of the foregoing technologies and post implementation operation and maintenance-based functions.

When deploying WAAS projects it is imperative to identify access to suitable property to locate the equipment and provide access for customers to purchase water by the bottle or larger container. In the case of the Company’s Caribbean projects, this land access has been identified, primarily in inland housing developments. The Company has also specified all of the required supplemental equipment for bottling, post water treatment and mineralization. Once the machines are able to be shipped the Company will be in a position to provide a turnkey service.

The Company has generated limited revenue up until the present time, and its operations for the past three years have been typically focused on business development, market research, technology research and development activities. The Company, on a consolidated basis, had total assets of $2,558,279, as of December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, net assets were $692,028, reflecting the impact of restructuring in connection with the previously held RHBV. The ultimate effect of the restructuring has eliminated $2,958,497 in debt, which we believe will aid us in facilitating the future expected financing needs of the Company. Furthermore, 20,238,606 shares of common stock were returned to the corporate treasury in exchange for the cancelation of royalty agreements and all obligations therein.

At present, the Company executes consulting agreements with experienced executive personnel and senior advisors and is expecting to build a complete, full-time staff in the coming months as machines are delivered to final destinations and revenue is collected. Sales are heavily driven by independent distributors and project developers. The Company had revenues of $0 and $189,237 and net losses of $22,645,794 and $8,019,386 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had no revenue and a net loss of $2,162,913. A large proportion of these losses relate to uncustomary expenses associated with the restructuring ($467,118 amortization of debt discount and non-recurring consultancy expenses of $587,500). The losses associated with discontinued operations ($333,733) are not expected to reoccur in future years. The total of these three expense categories is $1,388,351 or 64% of the net loss. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operating activities and has limited resources or revenues to cover its operating costs. In the Company’s auditor’s report dated November 15, 2021, RAKR’s auditor stated that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Impact of COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic.

As a global corporation the economic effects within the Company’s environment have been substantial. In global markets, disruptions in supply chains and increases in related costs have been a real impact on our ability to deliver WaaS projects. Measures being introduced at various levels of government to curtail the spread of the virus (such as travel restrictions, closures of non-essential municipal and private operations, imposition of quarantines and social distancing) have had a material impact on the Company’s operations. The extent of the impact of this outbreak and related containment measures on the Company’s operations cannot be reliably estimated at this time but at the same time the impact has been significant since the declaration of the pandemic nineteen months ago. For the Company, it is particularly disruptive because of limitations on our business development and engineering experts to travel and implement projects. As global operations open, we expect that we will begin to track according to the original business plan.

Products and Services

Across the world, fresh water is unevenly distributed. Many regions are desperately under-served, including North Africa, the Middle East, India, Mexico, large portions of South America, and various island geographies.

Fundamentally, the WaaS solutions are based on deploying technology with the following attributes to ensure low-cost delivery and Company profitability:

Air-to-Water (AW) – Harvests fresh water from airborne humidity by using advanced heating and cooling technologies

Water-to-Water (WW) – Transforms contaminated water (saltwater, sewage, polluted) into safe, clean water by using an environmentally sustainable process called Multi-Effect Membrane Distillation.

The operating efficiency of these technologies allows us to provide customers with clean water at a price that is highly competitive relative to traditional alternatives. In the main, we substantially out-perform peer competitors because we can deploy remotely where the water is consumed. The compact and scalable systems for AW and WW enable decentralized deployment, in which water is distributed directly to the consumption site with no expensive piping or truck transport. AW and WW are both cost-effective technology solutions and can be powered by solar, wind, or grid electricity, or a combination of power sources. They can produce roughly 5,000 to 150,000 liters of water per unit, per day, depending on the local conditions and the type of unit deployed.

Cost Competitiveness

With the core focus on WaaS delivered on a per liter basis, the relevant Cost Information is the cost per liter of alternative suppliers. Currently in remote locations, the main supplier is bottled water. Accordingly, our solutions are optimally profitable when we compete head-to-head with bottled water that is transported or bulk water that is transported by truck to local communities. In most remote communities where this water is imported, the minimum cost per liter is US$0.30 reaching as high as US$2.00, according to our market research. The Company’s fully amortized cost of water per liter through our distributed WaaS model and distribution agreement with RHBV, bottling, operating and maintenance, distribution and other costs allows us to compete profitably to generate corporate value beneficial to our shareholders. The market for distilled water supported in part by WW-based technology, which is essential to more specialized industrial or commercial activities, is expected to increase margins significantly.

Regulatory Information

The global nature of our approach means that regulatory conditions vary by jurisdiction. We believe that the ultimate test of profitability in this complex, cross-jurisdictional environment will be the quality of the water that is bottled and tested. The Company seeks to adhere to World Health Organization standards for clean water using the technologies that are authorized in a particular sovereign jurisdiction.

WaaS Recurring Revenue Model

The RAKR business model begins with the identification of a trusted local partner. The next step is to enter into JV structures, which maximize value to all stakeholder-parties.

The Rainmaker delivery systems are to be installed by entering contracts with local third-party experts that are typically Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (“HVAC”) experts.

The RAKR model charges a market determined price per liter of bottled water or similarly treated water. Revenue sources include bottled water, bulk water, and industrial water. A representative project in the Caribbean currently under development is expected to generate $110,000 dollars in revenue per month once seven allocated machines are operational. The capital expenses for the project are roughly $650,000 and the payback is less than one year. This representative project reflects the project profile that we will be seeking in the future.

We believe the value we will offer through our WaaS projects is based on the following factors:

Potential Improvements

Potential improvements and related applications that we are pursuing or plan to pursue include the following:

Market Opportunity

In the past ten years, there has been a growing awareness of the shortage of fresh water—and the associated economic and social effects the problem magnifies in impoverished and underdeveloped communities. Entities ranging from Water.Org to the United Nations (access to safe drinking water represents #6 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals articulated by the United Nations) are at the forefront of driving international policy momentum and prospects for multilateral cooperation in the realms of global governance and public-private co-regulation. Common to these efforts is the search for scalable and practical solutions that possess applications uniquely suited to the problem of shortage.

The metrics that underpin the international need for ingenuity and action are the same as those that animate and sustain the market opportunity for our Company:

Moreover, at any moment, the atmosphere contains approximately 37.5 million billion gallons of water. This potential is not currently harvested by the means of private organizations or government institutions and thus presents a significant opportunity for AW technology to satisfy worldwide demand for water.

The World Health Organization estimates that 50 liters of water is required per individual to meet basic needs. It is estimated by the OECD that by 2030 nearly half of humanity will be living in a condition of severe water stress. Currently, according to UNICEF 2.2 billion people around the globe lack safe drinking water. While high-income countries only treat 70% of wastewater, low-income countries treat 8%. With the world’s population expected to reach 9 billion by 2038, the global need is indisputably high. Much of the population expansion is or will be in the very areas that are already suffering from the problem of water scarcity.

The above reasons point to a global market for water that is extraordinarily immense. Today, the annual global water market for all purposes and uses is $650 billion and is expected to expand to $1 trillion by 2025. (Source: RobecoSAM Study (2015, June). Water: the market of the future). Applying RAKR’s approach against the purposes and uses defined above, our solutions are tailored to meet roughly 70% of that global level of demand.

Current Projects

Representative existing projects that reflect the global needs are as follows:

Suppliers

As stated previously, our principal supplier for the core technologies to be deployed is RHBV. RHBV in turn has built a global supply chain for its components. This supply chain, like so many others globally, is suffering from delays and costs are rising significantly as a result. Nonetheless, ongoing projects remain interested and as soon as we can execute delivery we expect to rapidly deploy in various locations. Should RHBV not supply the appropriate scale of technology required by a project, RAKR has identified multiple technologies of different sizes and types.

Supplemental technology (i.e., bottling, pre-post wastewater treatment, mineralization solutions, and renewable energy) – suppliers are global, abundant and highly competitive so as to ensure the lowest cost per liter for any given WaaS project planned implemented by the Company.

Competition

With the reorientation of the Rainmaker business model that delivers potable water at the source of demand, we believe that competitive models, while relevant and plausible alternatives, will not ultimately support the global level of demand for water at a reasonable price per liter. In virtue of our current affiliations, we believe we have a cost per liter competitive advantage. Accordingly, on a global basis, we do not believe competitive conditions will thwart our ability to produce long-term, corporate value or significantly diminish our financial results in the near term. However, other companies with sufficiently greater resources may develop competing products and have an advantage over us based on the relative size.

Government Subsidies and Incentives

Over time, RAKR will seek subsidies and incentives through its deployment of WaaS in underserved countries and particular communities within countries. One example is First Nations in Canada where there is an ongoing and desperate shortage of safe drinkable and general-purpose water.
