US LIGHTING GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
US Lighting Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was founded on October 17, 2002, in accordance with the laws of Florida and is located in Euclid, Ohio.
On January 11, 2021, the Company created a new wholly owned subsidiary called Cortes Campers, LLC, domiciled in Wyoming. Cortes Campers, LLC was created to market tow behind travel trailers for the recreational vehicle market. The division was in the early stage of revenue generation as of the date of this report. The first camper was delivered on February 19, 2022.
The Company created a new wholly owned subsidiary called Fusion X Marine, LLC on April 12, 2021, domiciled in Wyoming, to sell boats and other related products to the recreational marine market. The subsidiary has had no sales as of the date of this report.
On January 12, 2022, the Company created Futuro Houses, LLC, a new wholly owned subsidiary to manufacture and sell fiberglass houses. As of June 30, 2022, Futuro Houses, LLC had no revenues.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the six month period ending June 30, 2022 and not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
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. Significant estimates include the estimated useful lives of property and equipment. Actual results could 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. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There was $0 and $205,000 of cash equivalents as of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, held in the Company’s investment account.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Intellitronix Corp., Cortes Campers, LLC, Fusion X Marine, LLC and Futuro Houses, LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
5
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09. This standard provides authoritative guidance clarifying the principles for recognizing revenue and developing a common revenue standard for U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in the exchange for those goods or services.
Under this guidance, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company reviews its sales transactions to identify contractual rights, performance obligations, and transaction prices, including the allocation of prices to separate performance obligations, if applicable. Revenue and costs of sales are recognized once products are delivered to the customer’s control and performance obligations are satisfied.
Recently 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 - LIQUIDITY
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company realized a net loss of $776,000 and cash used by operating activities was $1,316,000, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $3,845,000 in the prior period. Based on current projections, we believe our available cash on-hand of $119,000, our liquid investments of $367,000, current efforts to market and sell our product and our ability to significantly reduce expenses will provide sufficient cash resources to satisfy our operational need for the next twelve months.
NOTE 4 – SALE OF ASSETS / DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On May 14, 2021, the Company and Intellitronix Corporation entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Ohio INTX Cooperative, a State of Ohio cooperative association, to sell selected assets of Intellitronix Corporation. The Asset Purchase Agreement and related sale was finalized on May 14, 2021, with a sale price of $4,520,000. Intellitronix Corporation remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
In accordance with the provisions of ASC 205-20, we have not included the results of operations from discontinued operations in the results of continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations. The results of operations from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, have been reflected as discontinued operations in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and consist of the following.
| Three Months ended June 30, 2021 | Six Months ended June 30, 2021 | |||||||
| Sales from discontinued operations | $ | 541,000 | $ | 1,484,000 | ||||
| Cost of goods sold of discontinued operations | 188,000 | 594,000 | ||||||

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN TRADING SECURITIES
On May 17, 2020, the Company purchased $3,800,000 of various mutual fund assets from a broker. This investment meets the criteria of level one inputs for which quoted market prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. As of June 30, 2022, these assets have a reported market value of $367,000. The Company has adjusted the reported amounts for these investments to market value resulting in a realized loss and unrealized loss of $18,000 and $274,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
The source of the $3,800,000 that the Company used to purchase various mutual fund assets from the broker was from the sale of certain assets of Intellitronix Corporation that was consummated on May 14, 2021. The Company purchased the mutual fund assets in order to provide shareholders of the Company with a reasonable rate of return while deciding how to deploy these funds towards its planned business operations. However, as a result of this purchase by the Company of mutual fund assets from the broker , the Company may be deemed to be an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1 Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”).
The Company does not intend to be an investment company and does not intend to be engaged in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities. As such, the Company intends to rely on Rule 3a-2 under the Investment Company Act, which provides an exclusion from the definition of “investment company” for issuers meeting certain criteria. The Company will endeavor to ensure that it is compliant with the conditions for relying on this rule, within the time period permitted by Rule 3a-2. In an effort to comply with this exclusion, the Company intends to liquidate its securities as soon as is reasonably possible until the Company no longer owns securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of such the Company’s total assets on an unconsolidated basis. Such course of action has been approved and authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors by unanimous written consent on August 17, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021, the account had $205,000 of cash and $1,647,000 of securities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company owned securities that comprised 54% of the value of the Company’s total assets on a consolidated basis.
The Company has not been consistent in achieving its goal of maintaining investments at under 40% of total assets in 2021. In the second quarter of 2021 the Company was over 40%, in the third quarter of 2021 the Company was under 40% and in the fourth quarter of 2021 the Company was again over 40%. As of June 30, 2022, the account had $1,000 of cash and $367,000 of securities. As of June 30, 2022, the Company owned securities that comprised 23% of the value of the Company’s total assets on a consolidated basis and liquidated the remainder of its securities in early July 2022. The Company has remedied this issue and the Company will not have to register under The Investment Company Act of 1940.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company qualified for a one-year registration exclusion under rule 3a-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
NOTE 6 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment for continuing operations consist of the following at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
| June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Building and improvements | $ | 664,000 | $ | 664,000 | ||||
| Land | 96,000 | 96,000 | ||||||
| Vehicles | 199,000 | 319,000 | ||||||
| Office equipment | 24,000 | 24,000 | ||||||
| Furniture and fixtures | 5,000 | 5,000 | ||||||
| Total property and equipment cost | 988,000 | 1,108,000 | ||||||
| Less: accumulated depreciation and amortization | (113,000 | ) | (163,000 | ) | ||||
| Property and equipment, net | $ | 875,000 | $ | 945,000 | ||||
Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 was $36,000 and $40,000, respectively.

NOTE 7 – ACCRUED PAYROLL TO OFFICER
Beginning in January 2018, the Company’s former President and CEO voluntarily elected to defer payment of his employment compensation. The balance of the compensation owed to the Company’s former President and CEO was $246,000 and $536,000 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Deferral of wages was halted on August 9, 2021, when the Company’s former President and CEO resigned. Please see Note 10 for a more complete discussion.

General Overview
US Lighting Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the State of Florida on October 17, 2003, under the name Luxurious Travel Corp., The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of US Lighting Group, Inc. (founded in 2013 in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming) on July 13, 2016, and the corporate name was changed on August 9, 2016, to the US Lighting Group, Inc. At the time the Company designed and manufactured commercial LED lighting, both for retrofits and new construction.
Through supplying Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s) with electronic components the Company was introduced to the Recreational Vehicle (RV) Industry. Management identified a fast growing and underserved niche of small, tow-behind fully molded fiberglass travel trailers. The Company started developing a new business plan to create a luxury 17’ Travel Camper to appeal to young professionals working remotely as well as retirees and other consumers intrigued by the travelling lifestyle.
On January 11, 2021, the Company formed Cortes Campers, LLC (“Cortes Campers”), a wholly owned subsidiary, to operate its new brand of innovative travel trailers. During the second part of 2021 the Company heavily invested in Research and Development as well as production planning for the 17’ Camper with the goal of starting camper deliveries in early 2022.
The Company plans to expand its manufacturing footprint, enhance production techniques, and develop more products in the RV, marine, composite housing, and electronics sectors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, for a full discussion of our critical accounting policies.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
14
Based on management’s evaluation, we concluded that, as of the date of this report, our remediation efforts continue related to each of the material weaknesses that we have identified in our internal control over financial reporting, and additional time and resources will be required in order to fully address these material weaknesses. We have not been able to complete all actions necessary and test the remediated controls in a manner that would enable us to conclude that such controls are effective. We are committed to implementing the necessary controls to remediate the material weaknesses described below as our resources permit. These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until (1) the new processes are designed, appropriately controlled and implemented for a sufficient period of time and (2) we have sufficient evidence that the new processes and related controls are operating effectively. The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting were identified by management as June 30, 2022:
Ineffective Control Environment. The Company did not maintain an effective control environment, which is the foundation necessary for effective internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company (i) did not maintain a functioning independent audit committee; (ii) had an insufficient number of personnel appropriately qualified to perform control design, execution and monitoring activities; (ii) had an insufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience and ongoing training in the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements commensurate with the Company’s financial reporting requirements; (iv) had inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (v) lack of written documentation of the Company’s key internal control policies and procedures over financial reporting. The Company is required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to have written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting. The Company did not formally document policies and controls to enable management and other personnel to understand and carry out their internal control responsibilities including the lack of budget-to-actual analyses, balance sheet variation analysis, and pro-forma financial statements. Additionally, the Company did not have an adequate process in place to complete its testing and assessment of the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in a timely manner;
Ineffective controls over financial statement close and reporting process. The Company did not maintain effective controls over its financial statement close and reporting process. Specifically, the Company: (i) had insufficient preparation and review procedures for disclosures accompanying the Company’s financial statements; and (ii) did not provide reasonable assurance that accounts were complete and accurate and agreed to detailed support and that reconciliations of accounts were properly performed, reviewed and approved; and
Insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions due to limited personnel. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we had limited personnel that performed nearly all aspects of our financial reporting process, including, but not limited to, access to the underlying accounting records and systems, the ability to post and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. Due to the fact that these duties were often performed by the same person, this creates a lack of review over the financial reporting process that would likely result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
