US NUCLEAR CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

Note 1 – Organization

Organization and Line of Business

US Nuclear Corp., formerly known as APEX 3, Inc., (the “Company” or “US Nuclear”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 14, 2012.

On May 31, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”) whereby the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets of ECC.

The Company is engaged in developing, manufacturing and selling radiation detection and measuring equipment. The Company markets and sells its products to consumers throughout the world.

Note 2 – Basis Presentation

Interim financial statements

The unaudited interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed on May 12, 2023. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports. Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company recorded a net loss of $1,536,052 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and had an accumulated deficit of $16,668,932 as of June 30, 2023, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has plans to seek additional capital through some private placement offerings of debt and equity securities. These plans, if successful, will mitigate the factors which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries which include Optron, Overhoff Technology Corporation (“Overhoff”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”), have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not and does not anticipate incurring any losses related to this credit risk.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses for accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded based on the Company’s historical collection history. Allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $5,000 and $5,000, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined primarily by the average cost method) or net realizable value. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and allowance is made for writing down their inventories to net realizable value, if lower. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there was no allowance for slow moving or obsolete inventory. The Company periodically assessed its inventory for slow moving and/or obsolete items. If any are identified an appropriate allowance for those items is made and/or the items are deemed to be impaired.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:

Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Leasehold improvement	Lesser of lease life or economic life
Equipment	5 years
Computers and software	5 years

Long-Lived Assets

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company believes there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the underlying net assets of businesses acquired. The entire goodwill balance in the accompanying financial statements resulted from the Company’s acquisition of Overhoff Technology Corporation in 2006. The Company complies with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets, requiring that a test for impairment be performed at least annually. As of December 31, 2022, the Company performed the required impairment analysis which resulted in no impairment adjustments. Although the Company experienced a significant decline in revenue due to the effects of COVID-19, management expects that it is more likely than not that its revenue and cost of goods sold will be more in-line with pre-COVID-19 levels in upcoming periods. Significant estimates used in the goodwill impairment analysis may change in the upcoming year if revenues do not rebound and the cost of materials continues to increase.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have 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 weighted-average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model 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. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there are no derivative liabilities associated with our convertible notes payable.

Investments

The Company accounts for investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, minus impairment. If the Company identifies observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, the Company measures the equity security at fair value as of the date that the observable transaction occurred (“the measurement alternative”) in accordance with ASC 321. The Company accounts for investments for which it owns 20% or more, but less than 50% on the equity method in accordance with ASC 323.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer deposits, and line of credit, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. In addition, the Company has a note payable to a shareholder that the carrying amount also approximates fair value.

Revenue Recognition

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company’s revenue recognition disclosure reflects its updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. The Company applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606. As sales are and have been primarily from the sale of products to customers, and the Company has no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a material recognition of revenue on the Company’s accompanying consolidated financial statements for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. The Company made no adjustments to its previously reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with its historical accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition.

Revenues from product sales are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

●

executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;

●

identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;

●

determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;

●

allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and

●

recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s revenue category, is summarized below:

●

Product sales - revenue is recognized when the Company performs its obligations under the contracts it has with its customers to deliver products at an agreed upon price and it is generally when the control of the product has been transferred to the customer.

Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as customer deposits.

Sales returns and allowances was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. The Company provides a one-year warranty on all sales. Warranty expense for the six months ended June 31, 2023, and 2022 was insignificant. The Company does not provide unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concessions to its customers.

See Notes 12 and 13 for disclosures of revenue disaggregated by geographical area and product line.

Customer Deposits

Customer deposits represent cash paid to the Company by customers before the product has been completed and shipped.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS assumes that all dilutive convertible shares and stock warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, there were -0- and 2,500,000 warrants outstanding, respectively, to purchase shares of common stock. The equivalent number of shares to satisfy our convertible debt and warrants as of June 30, 2023, is 5,357,438. Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 due to the net loss incurred.

Segment Reporting

FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company determined it has two reportable segments. See Note 12.

Related Parties

The Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures. A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on the net loss or stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 was issued to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The new standard represents significant changes to accounting for credit losses. Full lifetime expected credit losses will be recognized upon initial recognition of an asset in scope. The current incurred loss impairment model that recognizes losses when a probable threshold is met will be replaced with the expected credit loss impairment method without recognition threshold. The expected credit losses estimate will be based upon historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU as amended by ASU 2019-10, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has determined that this ASU does not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which amends ASC 740 Income Taxes (ASC 740). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company has evaluated the effect of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and has determined that this ASU does not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. For convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the embedded conversion features no longer are separated from the host contract. ASU 2020-06 also removes certain conditions that should be considered in the derivatives scope exception evaluation under Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, and clarify the scope and certain requirements under Subtopic 815-40. In addition, ASU 2020-06 improves the guidance related to the disclosures and earnings-per-share (EPS) for convertible instruments and contracts in entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

MIFTEC

On August 3, 2018, the Company closed an agreement by and among, MIFTEC Laboratories, Inc. (“MIFTEC”), a licensee of Magneto-Inertial Fusion Technologies, Inc., (“MIFTI”), and the Company. MIFTEC is a licensee of MIFTI radionuclide technology. MIFTEC will engage the Company to manufacture equipment pursuant to MIFTEC’s specifications and designs and have the Company as a sales representative for the manufactured equipment. The Company will be the exclusive manufacturer and supplier to MIFTEC of equipment in North America and Asia. In addition, the Company received a 10% ownership interest in MIFTEC. The consideration for the exclusive manufacturing rights and a 10% ownership interest in MIFTEC was $500,000 and 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $594,000. The fair value was determined based on the Company’s stock price on August 3, 2018. The Company recorded the value of the 10% interest in MIFTEC at $10,000 and recorded $1,084,000 as the acquisition of manufacturing and supply rights in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations during the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company evaluated this investment for impairment and determined that an impairment of $9,000 was necessary during the year ended December 31, 2019. The carrying value of this investment at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $1,000 and $1,000, respectively.

MIFTI

In April 2019, the Company also entered into a Cooperative Agreement with MIFTI whereby the Company acquired certain exclusive manufacturing and supply rights, including thermonuclear fusion-powered reactor for production of electricity per MIFTI designs in return for $500,000, of which $100,000 is payable upon signing, $200,000 within four months of the agreement and $200,000 within nine months of the agreement. The $500,000 is an option to buy a 10% interest in MIFTI for $2,700,000, if completed within 24 months of the agreement date. If the options expire, MIFTI shall issue the Company 500,000 shares of common stock and rescind all other exclusive rights contained in the agreement. The option was rescinded, and the Company received 500,000 shares of MIFTI common stock which represents an ownership of approximately 0.56% for its $500,000 investment. The Company evaluated this investment for impairment and determined that an impairment of $499,000 was necessary during the year ended December 31, 2019. The carrying value of this investment at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $1,000 and $1,000, respectively.

Grapheton

On February 5, 2020, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with Grapheton, Inc., a California corporation (“Grapheton”). The transaction was closed on March 12, 2020. Grapheton is a start-up company that focuses on building energy storage devices, known as supercapacitors, from a new material system. The technology utilized by Grapheton has been proven to provide a compelling advantage in microelectrode arrays with superior electrical and electrochemical properties.

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Corporation will acquire a total of 2,552 shares of Grapheton’s common stock over a two-year period. At closing, the Company was issued at total of 1,452 shares of Grapheton’s common stock for $235,000 and 858,896 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $601,227.

In connection with the SPA, during the second quarter of 2021 the Company received an additional 1,100 shares of Grapheton’s common stock in exchange for the Company’s issuing an additional 1,121,071 shares of common stock valued at $633,405. In addition, Grapheton fulfilled its requirements under the earn out provision and the Company is obligated to make the first earn out payment of $192,500. This amount is recorded as accrued expense in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

An additional “true up” issuance of the Company’s common stock to Grapheton may be made on the second anniversary of the closing of the SPA, based on the valuation of the Company’s common stock on that date by a third-party valuator.

The Company currently owns 35.8% of Grapheton and accounts for its investment in Grapheton using the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323. The Company evaluated this investment and recorded a loss attributed to equity investment of $8,059 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 9 – Leases

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate which is based on the interest rate of similar debt outstanding.

The Company leases its current facilities from Gold Team Inc., a company owned by the Company’s CEO, which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio locations. The leases expired on April 30, 2023, and the Company exercised its renewal option for an additional 12 months. The new lease is not more than 12 months; therefore, the disclosures under ASC 842 are not required. Future minimum lease payments under this agreement for the twelve months ending December 31, 2022, is $168,000. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the provision of ASC 842 Leases.

The lease expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $84,000 and $84,000, respectively. The cash paid under operating leases during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $0 and $0, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease terms were 0.1 years and the weighted average discount rate was 8%.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time the Company may be a party to litigation matters involving claims against the Company. Management believes that there are no known or potential matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Warrants

The following table summarizes the activity related to warrants:

					Weighted
			Weighted		Average
			Average		Remaining		Aggregate
	Warrants		Exercise		Contractual		Intrinsic
	Outstanding		Price		Life		Value
Outstanding, December 31, 2022		2,500,000	$	0.11		2.32	$	-
Granted		-		-		-
Forfeited		-
Exercised		2,500,000	$	0.13
Outstanding, June 30, 2023		-	$	-		-	$	-
Exercisable, June 30, 2023		-	$	-		-	$	-

The above warrants contain a down-round provision that requires the exercise price to be adjusted if the Company sells shares of common stock below the current exercise price. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued shares of common stock for $0.11 therefore, the exercise price of the warrants outstanding were adjusted from $0.14 to $0.11. The change in fair value between the value of the warrants using the new exercise price versus the old exercise price was calculated to be $2,013 and this amount was recorded as a deemed dividend in the accompanying consolidated financial statements during the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, 1,500,000 and 1,000,000 warrants were exercised in a cashless exercise resulting in 771,845 and 517,391 common shares issued, respectively. The number of warrant shares were determined in the following manner:

X = Y(A-B) A	where:	X=	the number of warrant shares to be issued	(771,845 and 517,391)

		Y=	the number of warrant shares the holder elects to purchase	(1,500,000 and 1,000,000)

		A=	the Market Price	($0.309 and $0.23)

		B=	Exercise Price	($0.15 and $0.111)

Note 12 – Segment Reporting

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company has two reportable segments: Optron and Overhoff. Optron is located in Canoga Park, California and Overhoff is located in Milford, Ohio. The assets and operations of the Company’s recent acquisition of the assets of Electronic Control Concepts are included with Overhoff in the table below. The assets and operations of the Company’s subsidiary, Cali From Above, are through March 3, 2023, which is the date the Company divested its interest in Cali and are included with Optron in the table below.

The following tables summarize the Company’s segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022:

Note 15 – Deconsolidation of Subsidiary

On March 3, 2023, the Company divested itself of its wholly owned subsidiary, Cali From Above, through a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert Goldstein. Consideration received by the Company was 65,000,000 shares of Averox, Inc. (OTC:AVRI), resulting in the Company owning 26% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of AVRI. The Company considered the guidance under ASC 810-10-40 in determining the accounting treatment for the transaction and it was determined that the fair value of the 65,000,000 shares received on March 3, 2023, was $2,539, which was the fair value of the assets transferred upon deconsolidation by the Company. Additionally, this method was used due to there being no active trading by Averox on the date of the transaction. Also at closing, the Company and Cali From Above signed a Cooperation Agreement whereby the Company holds exclusive sourcing and manufacturing rights for Cali From Above products, thus making Cali From Above a new customer of the Company.

Upon deconsolidation, the Company recorded a loss of $2,539, reflecting the value of $2,539 in cash in Cali From Above.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand US Nuclear Corp, our operations and our present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to—and should be read in conjunction with—our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The audited financial statements for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on May 12, 2023 should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such periods have been included in these unaudited financial statements.

We were incorporated in Delaware on February 14, 2012, and on March 2, 2012, we filed a registration statement on Form 10 to register with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a public company. We were originally organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation.

Since our acquisition of Overhoff Technology in 2006, we have had discussions with other companies in our industry for an acquisition. While we targeted Overhoff due to its unique position in the tritium market, we had not commenced an acquisition since our Overhoff Technology acquisition; we believe in part the reason was due to lack of additional capital, our status as a privately-held entity at the time, and focus on developing our own products. We will seek out companies whom our management believes will provide value to our customers and will complement our business. We will focus on diversifying our product line into a larger range so that our customers and vendors may have more expansive experience in type, choice, options, price and selection. We also believe that with a more diverse product line we will become more competitive as our industry is intensely competitive.

Generally, our product concentration places a heavy reliance on our Overhoff Technology division. In 2022, we derived 55.9% of our total revenues from sales made by Overhoff to two customers. We expect to encounter a continuation of this trend unless we are successful in diversifying our client base, executing our acquisition strategy and experience increases in business from our Technical Associates division.

Our international revenues were 26.57% of our total revenue in 2022. We expect this to increase over time as we continue to field new orders inquires and engage new customers overseas and recover post-pandemic. We believe that South Korea and China will likely be a larger contributor to revenue within the next few years. While we maintain steady growth domestically, the international side of our business may be a larger component as nuclear technology and rapid development for clean energy grows abroad. Additionally, the Company relies on continued growth and orders from CANDU reactors (Canada Deuterium Uranium), and rapid development of the next generation of nuclear reactors called Molten Salt Reactors, (MSR) and Liquid-Fluoride Thorium Reactors (LFTR), all of which purchase tritium detection and monitor products. There can be no assurances as to our growth projections and our risk profile as we depend upon increased foreign customers for business.

For the next twelve months, we anticipate we will need approximately $5,000,000 in additional capital to fund our business plans. If we do not raise the required capital, we may not meet our expenses and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so and if we do, we may find the cost of such financing to be burdensome on the Company. Additionally, we may not be able to execute on our business plans due to unforeseen market forces such as lower natural gas prices, difficulty attracting qualified executive staff, general downturn in our sector or by competition as we operate in an extremely competitive market for all of our product offerings.

Robert I. Goldstein, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors also maintains a position as President of Gold Team Inc., a Delaware company that invests in industrial real estate properties for investment purposes. He holds an 8% interest in Gold Team Inc. and spends approximately 5 hours per week on affairs related to Gold Team Inc. The Company leases its current facilities from Gold Team Inc. which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio properties at an expense of $7,000 for each facility per month.

On May 31, 2016, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”) whereby the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets of ECC. ECC is a small manufacturer of test and maintenance meters for x-ray machines both medical and industrial. We acquired ECC to give a boost to our current x-ray related product and hospital/medical product sales.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Change

Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $346,801 compared to $582,568 for the same period in 2022. The decrease of $235,767 or 67.98% is a result of a decrease in sales from our Optron subsidiary of $155,805 and a decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $79,962. The overall decrease in sales is principally due to the adjustment of intercompany sales between Optron and Overhoff, which were included in sales in the prior three months and should have been eliminated upon consolidation of these financial statements. The sales breakdown for the three months ended June 30, 2023, is as follows:

North America 80.99%

Asia (Including Japan) 14.72%

Other 4.29%

Our gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were 9.99% as compared to 45.1% for the same period in 2022. Gross margins decreased by 35.11% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, due to increases in costs associated with products sold during the period. The cost increase is attributed to products not meeting specifications or standards upon completion of the manufacturing process.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $600,420 compared to $534,753 for the same period in 2022. The increase of $65,667 or 10.94% was principally due to increases in professional fees and trade show expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, stock-based compensation was $52,040 compared to $57,745 during the same period in 2022. Stock based compensation is issued as an incentive to consultants to increase revenues through the acquisition of new customers.

Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was $305,753, an increase of $211,474 from other expense of $94,279 for the same period in 2022. The increase was due to an increase in the amortization of debt discounts associated with convertible debentures of $193,296 and an increase in interest expense of $18,177.

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was $871,518 compared to $366,278 for the same period in 2022. The change was principally attributed to the factors described above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022:

	Six Months Ended June 30,						Change
	2023			2022			$			%

Sales	$	994,507		$	922,083		$	72,424			7.28	%

Other income (expense)		(670,050	)		(97,696	)		(572,354	)		85.42	%
Loss before provision for income taxes		(1,536,052	)		(1,015,921	)		(520,131	)		33.86	%
Provision for income taxes		-			-			-
Net loss	$	(1,536,052	)	$	(1,015,921	)	$	(520,131	)		33.86	%

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were $994,507 compared to $922,083 for the same period in 2022. The increase of $72,424 or 7.28% is a result of an increase in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $55,873 and an increase in sales from our Optron subsidiary of $16,551. The overall increase in sales is principally due to recovery from the impact of COVID-19. The sales breakdown for the six months ended June 30, 2023, is as follows:

North America 82.37%

Asia (Including Japan) 12.59%

Other 5.04%

Our gross margins for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were 47.28% as compared to 53.14% for the same period in 2022. Gross margins decreased by 5.86% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, due to fluctuations in the cost of materials used in manufacturing our products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were $1,336,245 compared to $1,408,256 for the same period in 2022. The decrease of $72,011 or 5.39% was principally due to an increase in stock-based compensation of $165,869 offset by decreases in employee benefits and advertising expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, stock-based compensation was $286,140 compared to $120,271 during the same period in 2022. Stock based compensation is issued as an incentive to consultants to increase revenues through the acquisition of new customers.

Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $670,050, an increase of $572,354 from other expense of $97,696 for the same period in 2022. The increase reflects an increase in the amortization of debt discounts associated with convertible debentures of $524,855, an increase in interest expense of $36,900, a $2,539 loss on the deconsolidation of Cali From Above, and a $8,059 loss on equity in our investment with Grapheton.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $1,536,052 compared to $1,015,921 for the same period in 2022. The change was principally attributed to an increase in stock compensation, an increase in amortization of debt discounts, and the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our operations have historically been financed by our majority shareholder and more recently from proceeds from the sale of our common stock. As funds were needed for working capital purposes, our majority shareholder would loan us the needed funds. We anticipate funding the growth of our business through the sales of additional shares of our common stock and loans from our majority stockholder if necessary.

As of June 30, 2023, total assets decreased by 4.53% to $2,974,095 from $3,108,737 on December 31, 2022. The decrease reflects decreases in cash, accounts receivable, inventory, the fair value of our fixed assets, and the carrying value of our investments offset by a note receivable recorded during the period.

As of June 30, 2023, total liabilities increased by 16.35% to $4,132,787 from $3,457,041 on December 31, 2022. The increase is principally related to an increase in accrued liabilities, notes payable, and accrued compensation to officers.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was ($190,126) compared to ($690,344) for the same period in 2022. The change in cash from operations was principally due to changes in working capital accounts.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was ($19,539) compared to ($12,629) for the same period in 2022. The increase in cash used investing activities was due to a decrease of $12,629 in the purchase of property and equipment offset by an increase related to a $17,000 note payable and cash of $2,539 surrendered in the deconsolidation of Cali From Above during the period.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $179,348 compared to $877,563 for the same period in 2022. The decrease in cash from financing activities reflects proceeds received on a convertible note payable and shareholder loan proceeds received in the prior period.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). US GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact our consolidated financial statements. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

None

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we are responsible for conducting an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures means that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023.

Changes in internal controls

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation to determine whether any change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
