NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods shown and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending September 30, 2023. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the 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 may differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurable amount (“FDIC”).
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Zeuus Energy. Zeuus Energy was incorporated on July 27, 2021 in Montenegro and is currently the only operating subsidiary.
Translation Adjustment
The accounts of the Company’s subsidiary Zeuus Energy, Inc, are maintained in Euros. According to the Codification, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate at respective balance sheets dates, members’ capital are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification (ASC 220), as a component of members’ capital. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.
7
Comprehensive Income
The Company uses SFAS 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (ASC Topic 220). Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of members’ capital, except those due to investments by members, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to members. Comprehensive income for the three months ended December 31, 2022, is included in net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new applicable accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2022 of $1,457,328, had a net loss of $173,772 and $137,134 of cash used in operations for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company has not yet established a source of revenue. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking third party equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSET
On June 1, 2021, the Company completed the closing of the transactions under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement with Andrei Seleznev, Nikolay Alekseev, and Ilia Alekseev (collectively, “Sellers”), dated May 12, 2021, to purchase the assets comprising the Wind Turbine Technology. In exchange for these assets, the Company paid $100,000 in cash, and issued 14,289 shares of its common stock to the Sellers. The shares were valued at $800,000 based on the average of the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock for the 30 trading days prior to the effective date of the agreement. In addition, the Company entered into employment agreements with each Seller to further develop the wind turbine technology and acquired assets. Before this transaction, the Company had no material relationship with any of the Sellers.

NOTE 5 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets as follows between three and five years.
Long lived assets, including property and equipment, to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized if expected future cash flows of the related assets are less than their carrying values. Measurement of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
Maintenance and repair expenses, as incurred, are charged to expense. Betterments and renewals are capitalized in plant and equipment accounts. Cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to items replaced or retired are eliminated from the related accounts with any gain or loss on the disposition included as income.
Property and equipment stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation consisted of the following:
December 31, 2022 | September 30, 2022 | |||||||
Property and equipment | $ | 66,996 | $ | 100,293 | ||||

NOTE 6 – COMMON STOCK
On July 25, 2022, the Company was advised by FINRA that the 10:1 forward stock split of the Company’s common stock was effective July 25, 2022. Immediately following the effectiveness of the forward stock split, there were 105,509,660 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding, as compared to 10,550,966 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the forward stock split. All shares throughout these financial statements and Form 10-Q have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the forward stock split.
NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In support of the Company’s efforts and cash requirements, it may rely on advances from related parties until such time that the Company can support its operations or attains adequate financing through sales of its equity or traditional debt financing. There is no formal written commitment for continued support by officers, directors, or shareholders. Amounts represent advances or amounts paid in satisfaction of liabilities. The advances are considered temporary in nature and have not been formalized by a promissory note.

Overview of Operations
We are a Data Centric company with business activities focused three main areas:
ZEUUS Data Centers
ZEUUS Energy
ZEUUS Cyber Security
All four divisions work synergistically with each other in an synergetic ecosystem which enables growth and business protection. These technologies and divisions all stem from the massive requirements in our Data Centers.

We expect full commercial production of the Wind Turbines by the end of 3rd Quarter 2022.
We are also in negotiations for the acquisition of two cyber security companies and will update the market after we enter into definitive acquisition agreements.
Our mandate and focus are to harness the Cloud and provide all aspects of Data Services from protection to facilitation, to storage, to the sustainable energy consumption at all our Data Center locations.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs for the next fiscal year and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.
