NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Znergy, Inc., (formerly Mazzal Holding Corp., formerly Boston Investment and Development Corp.) is a Nevada corporation (the “Company” or “Znergy”), incorporated on January 23, 2013. The Company is a provider of energy-efficient lighting products, lighting controls and energy management solutions. The Company offers a full turn-key lighting solution which includes economic assessments, energy efficient analysis, installation and rebate support for the Company’s customers. The Company’s business primarily involves retrofitting existing lighting solutions from traditional high intensity and metal halide fluorescent lighting to energy efficient LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology.
The spread of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) around the world in the first half of 2020 has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international economies and, as such, the Company is unable to determine if it will have a material impact to its operations.
The Company is unsure of the outcome of the COVID-19 novel Coronavirus pandemic on its business. The duration of the pandemic, its effect on business in general and its effect on the Company specifically are unknown to management. For example, the Company’s largest client, one of the world’s largest clothing retail stores, was forced to close its doors at the onset of the pandemic and only recently re-opened some of its stores, thereby allowing the Company to continue to retrofit these limited stores with its LED lighting system. We were able to convert 27 stores starting November 26, 2019 through November 20, 2020, with the majority converted in the first quarter of 2020 before the full impact of the pandemic. The expectation is that by the last two quarters of 2021, this retailer will have opened more stores, allowing for the LED retrofit to move forward. A continuation of the pandemic, a second surge of the pandemic, or a failure to find and commercialize a vaccine for COVID-19 could materially impact the Company’s revenues and its operations.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position and the results of operations. Results shown for interim periods ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on September 4, 2020. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in 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 or revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in these consolidated financial statements include those related to revenues, accounts receivable and related allowances, contingencies, and the fair values of stock-based compensation. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in the financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10. The Company generally has two revenue sources - installation contracts and sales of lighting products. The installation contracts are short term in duration, typically within a week. The disaggregation of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $160,768 and $25,850 for installation contracts and sale of lighting products, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the amounts were $408,437 and $24,095 for installation contracts and sale of lighting products, respectively.
When Znergy receives an order from a customer, either verbally or through a written purchase order for products such as individual lights or fixtures, but is not part of an installation contract, the Company recognizes the revenue when the goods are shipped, and title has passed to the customer. In these arrangements, we have determined that there is one performance obligation and that revenue should be recognized at the point in time that title passes to the customer.
Installation contract revenue is recognized when the contract is considered complete by the customer, through a written customer acceptance form. Each contract for installation of lighting and fixtures, consists of labor and materials, and is given a unique number in the system. Each contract is accounted for individually. The Company identifies the performance obligations, which include labor and materials and are accounted for as one contract. The transaction price is identified in advance with an agreed proposal between the Company and the customer and the price can be adjusted if, during the installation process, changes are made during the process. Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets and billings and/or cash receipts are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account during the contract period, but no revenues, costs, or profits are recognized in operations until the completion of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor, and allocable indirect costs. All unallocated indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged in the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined. A contract is considered complete when accepted by the customer that the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. There were no contracts which were not complete by the end of the quarter.
Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Znergy (FL) and Znergy Holdings (FL). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Inventory
Inventory consists of a variety of LED lamps, all of which are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory is accounted for using the FIFO basis.
Adoption of recent accounting standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The guidance in this ASU requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company has adopted Topic 606 as of January 1, 2018 utilizing the full retrospective method of adoption. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have any impact on its results of operations and financial condition.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which supersedes the current lease accounting requirements. This standard requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. In addition, this standard requires lessees to disclose certain key information about lease transactions. Upon implementation, an entity’s lease payment obligations will be recognized at their estimated present value along with a corresponding right-of-use asset. Lease expense recognition will be generally consistent with current practice. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which simplifies adoption of the new lease accounting requirements by allowing an additional transition method that will not require restatement of prior periods and providing a new practical expedient for lessors to avoid separating lease and non-lease components within a contract if certain requirements are met. The provisions of this guidance must be elected upon adoption of the new lease accounting requirements, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.
We adopted the standard as required on January 1, 2019. Consequently, we did not update previously reported financial information and the disclosures under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods prior to January 1, 2019 and elected all of the practical expedients available under the transition guidance. The new standard also provides practical expedients for ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, and did not recognize right of use assets or lease liabilities for those leases. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases.
The adoption did not impact the business as no long-term, reportable leases existed as of March 31, 2019. We do not expect that this standard will have a material impact on our financial statements. While we continue to assess all of the effects of adoption, we currently believe the most significant effects relate to the recognition of new right of use assets and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for our real estate and equipment operating leases, and the significant new required disclosures regarding our leasing activities. We do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption.
Recent accounting standards
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”, which provides updates and clarifications to three previously-issued ASUs: 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” and 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities”. The adoption of this standards update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. This ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The guidance is effective non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The adoption method is dependent on the specific amendment included in this update as certain amendments require retrospective adoption, modified retrospective adoption, an option of retrospective or modified retrospective, and prospective adoption. The adoption of this standards update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
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. This ASU amends the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and improves and amends the related EPS guidance for both Subtopics. The ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is permitted in annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2020. We are still assessing the impact of ASU 2020-06 on our condensed consolidated financial statements
The Company does not believe that there are any 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 accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficit of $2,123,215, insufficient cash resources to meet its planned business objectives and recurring losses of ($2,093,364) and ($1,092,567) in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 respectively. The Company intends to fund operations through debt and equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements through July 2022, one year from the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.
The Company is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue operations and to execute its business plan. In response to these problems, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings. No assurances can be made that management will be successful in pursuing any of these strategies.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 9 - BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The Company's dilutive common stock equivalent shares, which include incremental common shares issuable upon i) the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and (ii) vesting of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, are only included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share when their effect is dilutive. Since the Company had net losses for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive. Accordingly, basic and dilutive net loss per share are equal.
The following potential common stock equivalents were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because the inclusion thereof would be anti-dilutive.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The Company was formed in January 2013 as a Nevada corporation. The original business plan of the Company was to build and sell multi-family housing projects. The Company acquired a parcel of land in Taunton, Massachusetts, from The Mazzal Trust, a trust of which the founder of the Company, Nissim Trabelsi, was the Trustee, in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock, and began development of the project and construction of multi-family units.
On October 26, 2015, the Company acquired Global ITS, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Znergy, Inc. in order to expand into the Energy Efficiency (EE) marketplace, focusing on commercial lighting and green project financing. On February 9, 2016, the Company agreed to sell to the Mazzal Trust the real property which the Trust had previously sold to the Company and the Trust returned to the Company 149,950,000 of the 150,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock owned by the Trust. This transaction caused a change of control with Global being the accounting acquirer. The Company is now focused solely on the EE marketplace with an emphasis on LED retrofitting and installing new lamps.
The Company determined that Global ITS, Inc. served no purpose for the Company. It held no assets or operations, had been dormant for over a year, except for the operations of its wholly owned Subsidiary. On October 1, 2018, the Company sold 100% of its shares in Global to Peter Peterson, a shareholder of the Company and a creditor of Global for a nominal amount. The sale did not include Global's investment in its subsidiary.
The Company is a provider of energy-efficient lighting products, lighting controls and energy management solutions. The Company offers a full turn-key lighting solution which includes economic assessments, energy efficient analysis, installation and rebate support for the Company's customers. The Company's business primarily involves retrofitting existing lighting solutions from traditional high intensity metal halide and fluorescent lighting to energy efficient LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology.
Managing energy consumption and the associate costs is increasingly important to building owners. Technological advancements in LED, together with significant private and public incentives for sustainability initiatives have made lighting infrastructure changes an effective way for building owners to cut energy costs. LED lighting provides energy efficiency, long life, low running temperatures and increasing technology such as dimmable lights.
The Company does not have long term contracts with its customers and the Company's revenue comes from the sales of lighting systems involving the replacement of existing lighting fixtures with new energy efficient LED fixtures. In addition, the Company generates revenue from available utility incentives and rebate programs.
The Company provides its turn-key service though a detailed evaluation of the customer's needs and performing an audit of the customer's current energy consumptions and costs, together with an analysis of the benefits of retrofitting their lights. Typically, the customer experiences an average payback on their investment between 12 and 24 months.
The Company intends to grow organically by selling energy efficiency (EE) and commercial security (CS) products to industrial and commercial businesses as well as municipal and state governments, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, and hospitals (the “MUSH” market). Strained government budgets have convinced state and local governments across the United States to embrace a new form of performance-based investments in energy efficiency offered by Energy Services Companies, or ESCOs. An ESCO provides energy-efficiency-related and other value-added services and for which performance contracting is a core part of its energy-efficiency services business. In a performance contract, the ESCO guarantees energy or financial savings for the project, which means ESCOs only make money if the project performs as promised. A study prepared by Allied Market Research indicated that the market is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 13.76% during the forecast period 2014-2020 and reach $44.4 billion by 2020.
The Company plans to increase its competitive position by providing financing to customers for installation projects through a strategic partnership the Company has developed with a well-established funding group focused on energy efficiency projects.
Results of Operations
The Company had revenues of $186,618 and $482,972 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. Revenues in 2019 and 2018 comprise LED installation projects and associated rebates from utilities.

As of March 31, 2019, the company had a working capital deficit of $2,123,215, insufficient cash resources to meet its planned business objectives, and accumulated losses of $18,236,340. The Company intends to fund operations through equity and debt financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements through 12 months from the date of issuance. As a result, the Company is seeking additional funding through debt and equity financing arrangements, or other funding opportunities.
The Company's success is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining the additional financing to continue operations and to execute its business plan. No assurances can be made that management will be successful in pursuing any of these strategies.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Plan of Operation
The Company's anticipated plan of operation is to continue to (1) identify and train sales personnel in regions of the country that have advantageous utility company rebate programs, (2) identify and train lighting installation personnel where we have established sales personnel, (3) seek out the best current and incipient solutions in the Energy Efficiency marketplace and become a reseller of those solutions, (4) develop our own solutions for the EE marketplace, and (5) seek to acquire other businesses in the market where such acquisitions makes strategic sense and are accretive to earnings.
The Company continues to expand its solutions portfolio for both indoor and outdoor applications to capitalize on the evolving and growing market for intelligent networked systems that collect and exchange data to increase efficiency as well as provide a host of other economic benefits resulting from data analytics to better enable smart buildings and smart cities. The transition to solid-state lighting provides the opportunity for lighting to be integrated with other building automation systems to create an optimal platform for enabling the “Internet of Things” (IoT), which will support the advancement of smart buildings, smart cities, and the smart grid.
The Company's ability to grow its incipient operations is primarily dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital, most likely through the sale of additional shares of the Company's common stock or other securities. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able raise additional capital on terms that are acceptable to the Company, or at all.
The realization of revenues in the next twelve months is important in the execution of the plan of operations. However, if the Company cannot raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash, or through obtaining commercial or bank financing, in order to continue as a going concern, the Company may have to curtail or cease its operations. As of the date of this Report, there were no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. The Company cannot assure any investor that, if needed, sufficient financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for operations to continue.

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies from those included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on September 4, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.
Based upon that evaluation we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is described below.
Our management identified the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines although we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above.
The Company has not had sufficient internal accounting personnel working at their corporate office which has led to a lack of segregation of duties and timely closing processes, nor did we perform an effective assessment of our system of internal control. The accounting functions have been handled by a combination of third parties off-site and internal personnel which has hindered the Company’s ability to timely reconcile its accounts, maintain the proper controls under the underlying documentation and close its books and records. This was a result of the early stage in the Company's growth. The Company will be adding internal accounting personnel in 2020 which should allow the Company to start to remediate its internal control issues. The Company also hired a GAAP experienced consulting firm in January 2020.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
On June 26, 2016, Registrant filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida a Complaint against defendants The Mazzal Trust, Nissim S. Trabelsi and Shawn Telsi (collectively the “Defendants”), seeking the disgorgement of profits obtained by Defendants and certain of their shareholder affiliates defined under Rule 16a-1(a)(1) under the Exchange Act defined below (collectively, the “Group”) through “short swing profits” in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Specifically, Registrant alleged that the Group acted under the guidance and control of the Defendants, whose individual defendants had filed forms 3 and 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”, declaring themselves to be “insiders” for the purpose of Section 16(b). The Group owned 100% of the shares of Registrant at the time that members of the group were engaged in the sale and purchase of such shares. The sales and purchases referenced all occurred with three months of other sales and purchases, subjecting Defendants to disgorge to Registrant all profits made by the Group in such sales and purchases. As detailed in paragraphs 16-22 of the Complaint, the total profits received by the Group is $1,695,689. Accordingly, Registrant has demanded the return of all such profits to Registrant plus the statutory payment of attorneys’ fees.
On August 24, 2017, the Plaintiff received a Clerk’s Entry of Default against Nissim Trabelsi. The Plaintiff filed a Motion for Default Judgment for damages against Trabelsi on June 13, 2017, which to date has not been addressed by the Court. On March 5, 2018, Nissim Trabelsi filed a notice of bankruptcy. The Plaintiff is still pursuing its options in the Case and the Court has yet to address the service issues with the Mazzal Trust.
