CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED
MARCH 31, 2022 AND 2021
1. | Basis of Presentation |
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 nine months ended March 31, 2022 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.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
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.
Marketable Securities
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.
Computers and peripheral equipment | 5 Years | |||
Vehicle | 5 Years |
The Company recognized depreciation expense of $27,335 and $7,755 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

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 $5,275 and $5,275 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, 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).
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2022
The Company calculated the dilutive impact of the 157,965,711 outstanding stock options of, 94,895,239 common stock purchase warrants of, and the convertible debt and accrued interest of $1,003,108, which is convertible into shares of common stock. The common stock purchase warrants and convertible debt were included, because their impact on income per share is dilutive.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2021
The Company calculated the dilutive impact of the 182,853,174 outstanding stock options of, 94,895,239 common stock purchase warrants of, and the convertible debt of $1,078,300, which is convertible into shares of common stock. The stock options, warrants and convertible debt were not included, because their impact on income per share is 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 Company 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.

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 March 31, 2022, 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:
● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. |
● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active. |
● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
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 March 31, 2022 (See Note 6):
Total | (Level 1) | (Level 2) | (Level 3) | |||||||||||||

Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs were $1,202,235 and $1,712,169 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 March 31, 2022.
3. | CAPITAL STOCK |
Series A Preferred Stock
On January 27, 2022, the Company filed a certificate of designation of Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada, designating 1,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock, and issued 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Timothy Young, the Company’s chief executive officer., . The Series A Preferred Stock does not have any dividend rights or liquidation preferences. The Series A preferred shares entitles the holder to 51% of the voting power of the Company’s stockholders. The Series A Preferred Stock were to automatically be redeemed by the Company at their par value of $0.001 per share, on the first to occur of the following events: (i) a date sixty days after the effective date of the certificate of designation, (ii) the date that Tim Young ceases to serve as officer, director or consultant of the Company, or (iii) on the date that the Company’s shares of common stock first trade on any national securities exchange and such listing is conditioned upon the elimination of the preferential voting rights of the Series A Preferred Stock. The estimated control premium for the voting control of the Series A Preferred Stock was 14.1%. The following assumptions were used: (i) control value of $22,101,999, (ii) control time period of 60 days, (iii) risk equivalent to the WACC of 26.4%. The common stock price was $0.0348, with a market capitalization based on the fully diluted common and preferred shares outstanding. The net fair value of the Series Preferred Stock was $960,700, which was recognized in the financial statements. The preferred shares expired March 27, 2022, and there were no outstanding shares as of March 31, 2022.
Series C Preferred Stock
On December 15, 2021, the Company filed a certificate of designation of Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada, designating 17,000 shares of preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 and is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to $0.00095. The Series C Preferred Stock holders are entitled to receive out of any funds and assets of the Company legally available prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend on the common stock of the Company, cumulative dividends, at an annual rate of 10% of the stated value, payable in cash or shares of common stock. In the event the Company declares or pays a dividend on its shares of common stock (other than dividend payable in shares of common stock), the holders of Series C Preferred Stock will also be entitled to receive payment of such dividend on an as-if-converted basis with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Preferred Stock confers no voting rights on holders, except with respect to matters that materially and adversely affect the voting powers, rights or preferences of the Series C Preferred Stock or as otherwise required by applicable law.
The Company entered into a securities purchase agreement on December 15, 2021, with an accredited investor for an exchange of convertible debt to equity. Under the purchase agreement, the Company and investor acknowledged there was $187,800 of principal remaining under the note issued to the investor by the Company on February 3, 2017, plus $80,365 of accrued interest, representing a total aggregate note balance of $268,165. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, the Company sold to investor 2,700 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series C Preferred Stock for a total purchase price of $268,165. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a total of 2,700 shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding with a fair value of $268,165, and a stated face value of one hundred dollars ($100) (“share value’) per share, and is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company. Upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation either voluntary or involuntary, the holder of each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its shareholders upon such liquidation, before any payments shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of the common stock, the stated value of the Series C Preferred Shares plus any declared but unpaid dividends. No other current or future equity holders of the Corporation shall have higher priority of liquidation preference than holders of Series C Preferred Stock. The Holder has the right, at any time, at its election, to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock into common stock at a conversion price of $0.00095.

6. | DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES |
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 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 nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a net gain in change in derivative of $83,572,095 in the statement of operations due to the change in fair value of the remaining notes, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.
At March 31, 2022, the fair value of the derivative liability was $38,444,200.
For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used the Binomial lattice formula. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice formula of the derivatives are as follows:
Risk free interest rate | 0.35% - 2.28% | |||
Stock volatility factor | 83.0% - 166.0% | |||
Weighted average expected option life | 1 year - 5 years | |||

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. As a result, nearly all the world’s hydrogen is procured through steam methane reforming (SMR), a capital-intensive process that emits carbon dioxide and other harmful pollutants. Hydrogen is green, but currently the most common process for producing it is brown.
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 will play a pivotal role in helping the world meet climate change targets, and we believe our technology potentially offers solutions to the challenges that the hydrogen future presents, including cost of production and transportation.
We believe our solution is unique because it directly uses the electrical charges created by sunlight to generate hydrogen, eliminating the need for the power electronics that traditional electrolyzers rely on altogether. SunHydrogen’s expected scalable system configuration of many individual hydrogen-generating panels provides a high degree of redundancy, security and stability. And while electrolyzers require high-purity water for operation, SunHydrogen’s technology can utilize water of varying purities.
Additionally, 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 in Coralville, Iowa, where we have a sponsored research agreement with the University of Iowa as well as a dedicated laboratory space at the BioVentures Center at the University of Iowa Research Park. Our Iowa team has worked diligently over the past several years to lead and optimize the scale-up of our nanoparticle technology.

Outside of our internal team, we’ve made strides toward commercialization by forming relationships with industrial partners who possess specialized expertise in individual components of our technology.
In our partnership with SCHMID Group of Freudenstadt, Germany, they lead the engineering of our panel housing, a crucial system element that ensures safe and efficient hydrogen collection. We also have ongoing partnerships with InRedox of Longmont, Colorado and MSC Co. LTD of Korea which are focused on substrate manufacturing and electroplating chemistries, respectively. We also have a sponsored research agreement with the University of Michigan focused on catalyst optimization and membrane integration.
Most recently, we have entered into a new partnership with Geomatec, a high-performance thin film manufacturer based in Japan who will work alongside InRedox to facilitate our transition to large-scale substrate manufacturing.
We will continue working diligently with our existing partners, and engaging new partners, to drive our technology to commercialization. As we prepare for mass production, we will also continue seeking 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 March 31, 2022, 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 March 31, 2022, 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 March 31, 2022 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $2,131,707 compared to $1,824,481 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The net increase of $307,226 in operating expenses consisted primarily of an increase in non-cash stock compensation of $924,816, with a decrease in professional fees of $216,191, research and development cost of $361,402, officer salaries of $38,433, marketing of $25,103 and an overall decrease in operating expenses of $283,687.
Other Income/(Expenses)
Other income and (expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $7,810,011, compared to $(18,632,063) for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in other expenses of $26,442,074 was the result of a decrease in non-cash accounts associated with the net change in derivative of $26,687,880, with an overall decrease in other expenses of $245,806.
Net Income/(Loss)
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, our net income was $5,678,304, compared to a net loss of $(20,456,544) for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The majority of the decrease in net loss of $26,134,848 was related primarily to the decrease 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 management’s 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.
Results of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 compared to nine months March 31, 2021
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $3,469,084 compared to $5,134,615 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The net decrease of $1,665,531 in operating expenses consisted primarily of a decrease in general and administrative expenses.
Other Income/(Expenses)
Other income and (expenses) for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $82,203,995 compared to $(142,647,640) for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in other expenses of $224,851,635 was the result of the decrease in net change in derivative of $225,694,241, and the overall increase in other expenses of $842,606.
Net Income/(Loss)
For the nine months ended March 31, 2022, our net income was $78,734,911, compared to a net loss of $(147,782,255) for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The majority of the decrease in net loss of $226,517,166, was related primarily to the decrease 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 management’s 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 March 31, 2022, we had working capital of $10,547,932, compared to a working capital deficit of $80,099,103 as of June 30, 2021. This decrease in working capital deficit of $69,551,171 was primarily due to a decrease in net change in derivative liability, with an increase in cash and cash equivalents.
18
Cash used in operating activities was $2,211,559 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $4,742,243 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was due to a decrease in research and development expense. The Company has had no revenues.
Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 was $10,648,389 and $213,866, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due to an increase in securities investment.
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $(490,000), and $50,108,900 net of commission fees, respectively. The decrease in cash provided in financing activities was due to a decrease in net proceeds from common stock purchase agreements.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through financing transactions and future revenue. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of private placements and registered offerings of our securities, as we have not generated any revenues to date.
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.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
