CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 AND 2020

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 three months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended June 30, 2022. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021.

This summary of significant accounting policies of SunHydrogen, Inc. 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 financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalent

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

Investments

The Company considers corporate bonds (“bonds”) as investments due to their ratings. The bonds are rated based on their default probability, health of the corporation’s debt structure, as well as the overall health of the economy. The bonds fall into the category as investments if they have a rating of AAA and BBB.

The bonds have varied due dates and were classified as current and noncurrent, based on to their maturity dates. The bonds are generally valued using quoted prices and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as prices are not always from active markets. We consider our investments held to maturity and we believe there are no other than temporary declines in fair value. Our investments are recorded at historical cost.

Use of Estimates

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes 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 as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, Binomial lattice valuation model inputs, derivative liabilities and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using straight line over its estimated useful lives.

The Company recognized depreciation expense of $10,284 and $278 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. 

SUNHYDROGEN, INC.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 AND 2020

Intangible Assets

The Company has patent applications to protect the inventions and processes behind its proprietary solar-to-hydrogen based technology. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

The Company recognized amortization expense of $1,758 and $1,758 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. 

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations

Net earnings (Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings 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). 

September 30, 2021 

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company calculated the dilutive impact of the outstanding stock options of 157,965,711, common stock purchase warrants of 94,895,239, and the convertible debt of $1,150,800, which is convertible into shares of common stock. The stock options were not included, because their impact was antidilutive.

September 30, 2020

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company calculated the dilutive impact of the outstanding stock options of 186,000,000, and the convertible debt of $1,797,000, which is convertible into shares of common stock. The stock options and convertible debt were not included in the calculation of net earnings per share, because their impact was antidilutive. 

Equity Incentive Plan and Stock Options

Equity Incentive Plan

On December 17, 2018, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (“the Plan”), with 300,000,000 shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success of the Corporation and to increase stockholder value by providing an additional means through the grant of awards to attract, motivate, retain and reward selected employees and other eligible persons. The awards are performance-based compensation that are granted under the Plan as incentive stock options (ISO) or nonqualified stock options. The per share exercise price for each option shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant of the option. The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing cost. The Company accounts for stock option grants issued and vesting to employees and non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested, and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date. The options are exercisable into common stock.

As of September 30, 2021, there were 157,965,711 stock options issued, and a reserve of 142,034,289.

SUNHYDROGEN, INC.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 AND 2020

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock option grants issued and vesting to employees and non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested, and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

Warrant Accounting 

The Company accounts for the warrants to purchase shares of common stock using the estimated fair value on the date of issuance as calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value of financial instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized on the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2021, the amounts reported for cash, accrued interest and other expenses, notes payables, convertible notes, and derivative liability approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

We adopted ASC Topic 820 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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 on September 30, 2021 (See Note 6):

SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 AND 2020

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

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

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs were $151,362 and $138,260 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Accounting for Derivatives

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average series Binomial lattice formula pricing models to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Management 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 condensed financial statements as of September 30, 2021.

In no event shall the lender be entitled to convert any portion of the Feb 2017 Note such that would result in beneficial ownership by the lender and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. In addition, for each conversion, in the event, that shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $1,500 per day shall be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until the shares are delivered. During the period ended on September 30, 2021, the Company issued 180,480,692 shares of common stock upon conversion of principal in the amount of $120,400, plus accrued interest of $51,057.

The conversion feature of the Aug 2018 Note was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features of the Note. The balance of the Aug 2018 Note as of September 30, 2021 was $100,000.

On April 15, 2020, the Company issued a convertible promissory note (the “Apr 2020 Note”) to an investor in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000. The Company received tranches for an aggregate principal total of $50,000. The Apr 2020 Note matures twelve (12) months from the effective dates of each respective tranche, such that the Apr 2020 Note matures on April 15, 2021, with an automatic extension of sixty (60) months from the effective date of each tranche.

If the Company fails to deliver shares in accordance with the timeframe of four (4) business days of the receipt of a notice of conversion, the lender, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind any portion, in whole or in part of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount returned to the principal sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Company.

The conversion feature of the April 2020 Note was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features of the Apr 2020 Note. The Company recorded amortization of debt discount, which was recognized as interest expense in the amount of $10,083 during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The balance of the Apr 2020 Note as of September 30, 2021 was $50,000.

All note conversions were performed per the terms of their respective agreements and therefore no gain or loss on the conversion was recorded.

ASC Topic 815 provides guidance applicable to convertible debt issued by the Company in instances where the number into which the debt can be converted is not fixed. For example, when a convertible debt converts at a discount to market based on the stock price on the date of conversion, ASC Topic 815 requires that the embedded conversion option of the convertible debt be bifurcated from the host contract and recorded at their fair value. In accounting for derivatives under accounting standards, the Company recorded a liability representing the estimated present value of the conversion feature considering the historic volatility of the Company’s stock, and a discount representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The discount is amortized over the life of the convertible debt, and the derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to stock price fluctuations.

The convertible notes (the “Notes”) issued do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion features have 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 three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded a net gain in change in derivative of $49,352,125 in the statement of operations due to the change in fair value of the remaining notes, for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

At September 30, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability was $85,895,178.

During the period ended September 30, 2021, the Company invested in corporate bonds, which have been recognized in the financial statements at historical cost.

The Company considers corporate bonds (“bonds”) as investments due to their ratings. The bonds are rated based on their default probability, health of the corporation’s debt structure, as well as the overall health of the economy. The bonds fall into the category as investments if they have a rating between AAA and BBB.

As of September 30, 2021, the components of the Company’s cash and short and long-term investments are summarized as follows:

The Company has invested in bonds maturing from April 1, 2022 through August 16, 2023 that are held to maturity. The current trading prices or fair market value of the bonds vary, and we believe any decline in fair value is temporary. All bonds are current and not in default.

The following table summarizes the amortized cost of the held-to-maturity bonds at September 30, 2021, aggregated by credit quality indicator.

The amortized cost of our corporate bonds and the related gross unrealized gains and losses, were as follows at September 30, 2021:

Overview

At SunHydrogen, our goal is to replace fossil fuels with clean, renewable hydrogen.

Hydrogen is the most abundant chemical element in the universe. When hydrogen fuel is used to power transportation and industry, the only byproduct left behind is pure water, unlike hydrocarbon fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas that release carbon dioxide and other contaminants into the atmosphere when used. However, naturally occurring elemental hydrogen is rare – so rare, in fact, that today over 95% of hydrogen still comes from methane, a fossil fuel (Source: Forbes, Estimating the Carbon Footprint of Hydrogen Production). This hydrogen is procured through steam methane reforming (SMR), a capital-intensive process that emits carbon dioxide and other harmful pollutants.

We believe the SunHydrogen solution potentially offers an efficient and cost-effective way to produce truly green hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water. Our core technology is a self-contained, nanoparticle-based hydrogen generator that mimics photosynthesis to split water molecules, resulting in hydrogen. By optimizing the science of water electrolysis at the nano-level, we believe we have developed a low-cost method to potentially produce environmentally friendly renewable hydrogen.

We believe renewable hydrogen is the fuel of the future, and we believe our technology potentially offers solutions to the challenges that the hydrogen future presents, including cost of production and transportation.

Because our process only requires sunlight and water, our technology can be installed near the point of hydrogen use. This eliminates the need for pipelines and trucks that result in high carbon emissions and high capital investment. With a target cost of $2.50/kg., we aspire for our technology to be cost-competitive with brown hydrogen and below the cost of clean hydrogen competitors. We believe our solution has the potential to clear a path for green hydrogen to compete with natural gas hydrogen and gain mass market acceptance as a true replacement for fossil fuels.

Our technology is primarily developed at the University of Iowa, through a sponsored research agreement. A longtime development partner to SunHydrogen, The University of Iowa research team has worked over the past several years to both lead and optimize the scale-up of our nanoparticle technology.

In 2021, we made strides toward the commercialization of our nanoparticle technology and entered agreements with two new technology development partners; InRedox in Longmont, Colorado and SCHMID Group in Freudenstadt, Germany.

Under our agreement with InRedox, they support the design and production of essential materials for our nanoparticle technology.

Concurrently, SCHMID has worked to develop the process and equipment to manufacture and scale up our nanoparticle technology.

We will continue working diligently with our existing technology partners to drive our technology to commercialization while we simultaneously prepare for mass production and seek out potential manufacturing partners for production facility, equipment design and engineering.

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 the Binomial valuation option pricing 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

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes 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 as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, Binomial lattice valuation model inputs, derivative liabilities and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value of financial instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2021, the amounts reported for cash, accrued interest and other expenses, notes payables, and derivative liability approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

We adopted ASC Topic 820 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Management reviewed currently issued pronouncements during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements. Pronouncements are disclosed in notes to the financial statements.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2020.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $599,766 compared to $578,486 for the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The net increase of $21,278 in operating expenses consisted primarily due an increase in office salary of $108,333, an increase in research and development of $13,102, and a decrease in stock compensation of $112,035, with an offset by $11,878 in other expenses. 

Other Income/(Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $49,224,609 compared to $(1,627,774) for the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The increase in other income of $50,852,383 was the result of the non-cash loss in net change in derivative of $50,732,210, a decrease in interest expense of $103,151, which includes the net change in amortization of debt discount of $85,599, with an increase in other income of $17,022.

Net Income/(Loss)

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, our net income was $48,624,844, as compared to a net loss of $(2,206,260) for the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The majority of the increase in net income of $50,831,104, was related primarily to the increase in net change of 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 defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on managements’ estimates. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period, 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. 

As of September 30, 2021, we had a working capital deficit of $38,558,325, compared to a working capital deficit of $80,099,103 as of June 30, 2021. This decrease in working capital deficit of $41,540,778 was primarily due to an increase in gain on change in derivative liability.

Cash used in operating activities was $(669,326) for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $(444,366) for the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The increase in cash used in operating activities was due to an increase in office salaries, and a decrease in accounts payable. The Company has had no revenues.

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $(8,393,442) and $(50,000), respectively. The increase in investing activities was due to the purchase of marketable securities.

Cash used in financing activities was $(1,450,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $800,000 provided by the prior period ended September 30, 2020. The increase in cash used in financing activities was a result of the redemption of stock options. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through financing transactions and future revenue.

We have historically obtained funding from investors, through private placements and registered offerings of equity and debt securities. Management believes that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds through the sale of its securities to its existing shareholders and prospective new investors which will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due and will allow the Company to continue to develop its core business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue raising the required capital for our operations on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds, we may be forced to curtail and/or cease our operation.

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 or expenses, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
