GREENWAY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2019

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

 

Nature of Operations

 

Greenway Technologies, Inc., (“Greenway”, “GTI” or the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., is primarily engaged in the research, development and commercialization of a proprietary Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) syngas conversion system that can be economically scaled to meet individual natural gas field/resource requirements. The Company’s proprietary and patented technology has now been realized in Greenway’s recently completed first generation commercial-scale G-Reformer TM unit, a unique and critical component to the Company’s overall GTL technology solution. Greenway’s objective is to become a material direct and licensed producer of renewable GTL synthesized diesel and jet fuels, with a near term focus on U.S. market opportunities.

 

Greenway was organized on March 13, 2002, under the laws of the State of Texas as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation. On August 18, 2009, in connection with a merger with Universal Media Corporation, a privately held Nevada company, the Company changed its name to Universal Media Corporation (“Universal Media”). The Company changed its name to UMED Holdings, Inc. on March 23, 2011, and to Greenway Technologies, Inc. on June 23, 2017.

 

Greenway’s GTL Technology

 

In August 2012, Greenway Technologies acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”) which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (“syngas”). Based on a new, breakthrough process called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (“FTO”), the Company believes that GIE’s G-Reformer, combined with conventional Fischer-Tropsch (“FT”) processes, offers an economical and scalable method to converting natural gas to liquid fuel. On February 15, 2013, GIE filed for its first patent on its GTL technology. U.S. Patent number 8,574,501 was issued on November 5, 2013. On November 4, 2013, GIE filed for a second patent covering other unique aspects of the design. The Company has identified several other areas in its technology to file for patent protection and such efforts are ongoing.

 

On June 26, 2017, Greenway, in conjunction with the University of Texas at Arlington (“UTA”), announced that they had successfully demonstrated Greenway’s GTL technology at the Company sponsored Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA, proving the viability of the science behind the technology.

 

On March 6, 2018, the Company announced the completion of its first commercial scale G-Reformer. The G-Reformer is the critical component of the Company’s innovative Greer-Wright Gas-to-Liquids system. A team consisting of individuals from the Company, UTA and the Company’s contracted fabricator worked together to test and calibrate the newly built G-Reformer unit. The testing substantiated the units’ synthesis gas generation capability and demonstrated additional proficiencies within certain prior prescribed testing metrics.

 

The Company believes that its proprietary G-Reformer is a major innovation in gas reforming and GTL technology in general. Initial tests have demonstrated that the Company’s solution is superior to legacy technologies which are costly, have a larger footprint and cannot be easily deployed at field sites to process associated gas, stranded gas, coal-bed methane, vented gas, or flared gas, all markets the Company seeks to service. The proprietary technology based around the G-Reformer is unique in that it also allows for transportable GTL plants with a much smaller footprint when compared to legacy large-scale technologies. The Company believes its technologies and processes will allow for GTL plants to be built with substantially lower up-front and ongoing costs resulting in more profitable results for O&G operators. Greenway is now working to commercialize both its G-Reformer and its GTL solutions and is in discussions with a number of oil and gas companies, smaller oil and gas operators and other interested parties to license and obtain joint venture or other forms of capital funding to build its first complete gas-to-liquid plant.

 

Mining Interest

 

In December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) land in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of restricted Common A stock. Early indications, from samples taken and processed, provided reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the 1,440 acres is significant, but only actual mining and processing will determine the ultimate value which may be realized from this property holding. The Company is currently exploring strategic options to partner or sell its interest in this acreage, while it focuses on its emerging GTL technology sales and marketing efforts.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Greenway and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company entered into an agreement with Jet Regulators at December to return its ownership interest for the return of 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities:

 

Name of Entity   %     Entity   Incorporation   Relationship
Greenway Technologies, Inc.           Corporation   Texas   Parent
Universal Media Corporation     100 %   Corporation   Wyoming   Subsidiary
Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc.     100 %   Corporation   Nevada   Subsidiary
Logistix Technology Systems, Inc.     100 %   Corporation   Texas   Subsidiary

 

Going Concern Uncertainties

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as of March 31, 2019, we have an accumulated deficit of $27,417,532. During the three-months ended March 31, 2019, we used cash of $260,467 for operating activities. At December 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,818,584, and used net cash of $1,289,436 for its operating activities during the prior year period. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations or on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

 

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold, are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale or salvage value are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment . An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The FASB issued ASC 606 as guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition will depict 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 guidance also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). The company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 and applied the cumulative catch-up transition method. The transition adjustment to be recorded to stockholders’ equity upon adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect upon the financial statements.

 

  8  
 

 

The Company has not, to date, generated any revenues.

 

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 amount of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three-months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at March 31, 2019, or December 31, 2018.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes . The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Open tax years, subject to IRS examination include 2014 – 2017.

 

Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted

 

Basic loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants (12,844,174) have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

 

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

 

See Note 6 below for discussion regarding the Company’s current convertible notes payable and warrants.

 

  9  
 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Effective January 1, 2008, fair value measurements are determined by the Company’s adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities, as permitted. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three levels as follows:

 

Level 1 – Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Valuation based on, observable inputs (other than level one prices), quoted market prices for similar assets such as at the measurement date; quoted prices in the market that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

 

Original Issue Discount

 

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company provides the debt holder with an original issue discount (“OID”). An OID is the difference between the original cash proceeds and the amount of the note upon maturity. The Note is originally recorded for the total amount payable. The OID is amortized into interest expense pro-rata over the term of the Note.

 

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation of the Company’s notes recorded at fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs, which consider (i) time value, (ii) current market and (iii) contractual prices.

 

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, notes payable and other payables, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

The following table represents the Company’s assets and liabilities by level measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

 

Description   Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
March 31, 2019 Derivative Liabilities   $     0     $      0     $ 56,697  
December 31, 2018 Derivative Liabilities   $ 0     $ 0     $ 103,476  

 

The following assets and liabilities are measured on the balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis utilizing significant unobservable inputs or Level 3 assumptions in their valuation. The following tables provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liabilities:

 

All gains and losses on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are recognized in other interest income and expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

The change in the notes payable at fair value for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, is as follows:

 

    FairValue     Change in     New
Convertible
          Fair Value  
    January 1, 2019     Fair Value     Notes     Conversions     March 31, 2019  
                                                                     
Derivative Liabilities   $ (103,476 )   $ 46,779     $ 0     $ 0     $ (56,697 )

 

Stock Based Compensation

Impact of New Accounting Standards

 

The FASB issued ASC 606 as guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition will depict 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 guidance also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). The company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 and applied the cumulative catch-up transition method. The transition adjustment to be recorded to stockholders’ equity upon adoption of the new standard was not material.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Overview

 

Greenway fka UMED Holdings, Inc. was originally incorporated as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation under the laws of the State of Texas on March 13, 2002. Greenway is structured as a holding company with present interests in energy technology and mining property, and primarily focused on the research and development of the Company’s proprietary GTL technology, as more fully described below. Our corporate offices are located at 1521 North Cooper Street, Suite 205, Arlington, Texas 76011.

 

As a development stage entity, we do not currently generate revenue and will be unable to pay our obligations in the normal course of business or service our debt in a timely manner throughout the remainder of 2019 without raising additional debt or equity capital. Although the Company has been successful in its capital raising efforts in prior years, there can be no assurance that additional debt or equity capital will be raised, or at the levels required to maintain as going concern.

 

Greenway is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) entering into a joint venture or partnership with an existing oil and gas producer or refiner to exploit the Company’s patented technology, (ii) licensing or selling rights to the technology, (iii) raising additional equity capital or (iv) entering into or issuing debt instruments. This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs and risks. There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate our next 12 months working capital needs or result in any other transaction.

 

Greenway’s GTL Technology

 

In August 2012, Greenway Technologies acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”) which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (“syngas”). Based on a new, breakthrough process called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (“FTO”), the Company believes that GIE’s G-Reformer, combined with conventional Fischer-Tropsch (“FT”) processes, offers an economical and scalable method to converting natural gas to liquid fuel. On February 15, 2013, GIE filed for its first patent on its GTL technology. U.S. Patent number 8,574,501 was issued on November 5, 2013. On November 4, 2013, GIE filed for a second patent covering other unique aspects of the design. The Company has identified several other areas in its technology to file for patent protection and such efforts are ongoing.

 

On June 26, 2017, Greenway, in conjunction with the University of Texas at Arlington (“UTA”), announced that they had successfully demonstrated Greenway’s GTL technology at the Company sponsored Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA, proving the viability of the science behind the technology.

 

On March 6, 2018, the Company announced the completion of its first commercial scale G-Reformer. The G-Reformer is the critical component of the Company’s innovative Greer-Wright Gas-to-Liquids system. A team consisting of individuals from the Company, UTA and the Company’s contracted fabricator worked together to test and calibrate the newly built G-Reformer unit. The testing substantiated the units’ synthesis gas generation capability and demonstrated additional proficiencies within certain prior prescribed testing metrics.

 

The Company believes that its proprietary G-Reformer is a major innovation in gas reforming and GTL technology in general. Initial tests have demonstrated that the Company’s solution is superior to legacy technologies which are costly, have a larger footprint and cannot be easily deployed at field sites to process associated gas, stranded gas, coal-bed methane, vented gas, or flared gas, all markets the Company seeks to service. The proprietary technology based around the G-Reformer is unique in that it also allows for transportable GTL plants with a much smaller footprint when compared to legacy large-scale technologies. The Company believes its technologies and processes will allow for GTL plants to be built with substantially lower up-front and ongoing costs resulting in more profitable results for O&G operators. Greenway is now working to commercialize both its G-Reformer and its GTL solutions and is in discussions with a number of oil and gas companies, smaller oil and gas operators and other interested parties to license and obtain joint venture or other forms of capital funding to build its first complete gas-to-liquid plant.

 

GTL Industry –Market

 

GTL converts natural gas – the cleanest-burning fossil fuel – into high-quality liquid products that would otherwise be made from crude oil. These products include transport fuels, motor oils and the ingredients for everyday necessities like plastics, detergents and cosmetics. GTL products are colorless and odorless. They contain almost none of the impurities, e.g., sulphur, aromatics and nitrogen, that are found in crude oil.

 

  19  
 

 

According to industry research metrics, the market for GTL products accounted for $10.98 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $22.89 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 8.5%. Products created by this process include GTL Diesel, GTL Naphtha, GTL Other (e.g., lubricants), where GTL Diesel accounts for more than 68% of the market. Market share of these products has not changed significantly over the last four years. Increasing population across the globe have led to the increase in the power consumption. There is a high demand for clean natural gas liquids products (“NGL”) in the commercial sector, including as blend-stock for petrochemical plants and refineries, as well as in the automobile and packaging industries, among others. Due to their clean nature, NGL products have wide use as fuel in motor vehicles, furnaces for heating and cooking, and as a household energy source. Greenway’s focus is in the production of high cetane diesel and Jet A fuels, a multi-billion-dollar market segment.

 

Development of stringent environmental regulations by numerous governments to control pollution and promote cleaner fuel sources is expected to complement industry growth. U.S. guidelines implemented such as the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board Act, 2006, Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act of 1948, and Oil Industry (Development) Act, 1974 are likely to continue to encourage GTL applications in diverse end-use industries to conserve natural gas and other resources.

 

Key industry players include: Linc Energy; Gas Techno; Compact GTL; Primus Green Energy; Chevron Corporation; Velocys; Royal Dutch Shell; Sasol Limited; NRG Energy; Ventech Engineers and Petrobras. In terms of production and consumption, Shell had the largest market share in 2018, virtually all of which is located overseas.

 

Mining Interest

 

In December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) land in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of restricted Common A stock. Early indications, from samples taken and processed, provided reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the 1,440 acres is significant, but only actual mining and processing will determine the ultimate value which may be realized from this property holding. The Company is currently exploring strategic options to partner or sell its interest in this acreage, while it focuses on its emerging GTL technology sales and marketing efforts.

 

Company History

 

Greenway Technologies, Inc. was originally incorporated as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation (“Dynalyst”) under the laws of the State of Texas on March 13, 2002. In connection with the merger with Universal Media Corporation (“UMC”), a Nevada corporation, on August 17, 2009, the Company changed its name to Universal Media Corporation. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger, and Universal Media Corporation was the acquiring company on the basis that Universal Media Corporation’s senior management became the entire senior management of the merged entity and there was a change of control of Dynalyst. The transaction was accounted for as recapitalization of Dynalyst’s capital structure. In connection with the merger, Dynalyst issued 57,500,000 restricted common shares to the shareholders of Universal Media Corporation for 100% of Universal Media Corporation.

 

On August 18, 2009, Dynalyst approved the amendment of its articles of incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change its name to Universal Media Corporation and approved the increase in authorized shares to 300,000,000 shares of common A stock, par value $0.0001 and 20,000,000 shares of common B, par value $0.0001.

 

On March 23, 2011, Universal Media Corporation approved the amendment of its articles of incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change our name to UMED Holdings, Inc.

 

On June 22, 2017, Greenway Technologies, Inc.in recognition of its primary operational activity, approved the amendment of its certificate of formation and filed on June 23, 2017, with the Texas Secretary of State to change its name to: Greenway Technologies, Inc.

 

Employees

 

As of May 20, 2019, we have 5 full-time employees. Four of these employees are located in, or near our corporate offices in Arlington, Texas; one is located in North Carolina, but travels extensively on Company business. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our employee relations to be satisfactory.

Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements to this Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2019, we have an accumulated deficit of $27,417,532. During the three-months ended March 31, 2019, we used cash of $260,467 for operating activities. At December 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,818,584, and used net cash of $1,289,436 for its operating activities during the year period. As a pre-revenue entity, these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. While the Company is attempting to commence revenue generating operations and thereby generate sustainable revenues, the Company’s current cash position is not sufficient to support its ongoing daily operations and requires the Company to raise addition capital through debt and/or equity sources.

 

Accordingly, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is therefore in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations or on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of public or private offerings, or both. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to implement the Company’s business plan to generate revenues will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While Management believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to further implement our business plan and generate revenues.

 

While we are attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, our cash position may not be enough to support our daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to further implement our business plan and generate revenues.

In the August 2012 acquisition agreement with Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”), the Company agreed to: (i) issue an additional 7,500,000 shares of restricted common stock when the first portable GTL unit is built and becomes operational, and, is capable of producing 2,000 barrels of diesel or jet fuel per day, and (ii) pay a 2% royalty on all gross production sales on each unit placed in production. In connection with a settlement agreement with the Greer Family Trust (‘Trust”), the successor owner of one of the two founders and prior owners of GIE on February 6, 2018, the Company exchanged Greer’s half of the 7,500,000 shares (3,750,000 shares) to be issued in the future, Greer’s half of the 2% royalty, a termination of Greer’s then current Employment Agreement and the Trust’s waiver of any future claims against the Company for any reason, for the issuance and delivery to the Trust of three million (3,000,000) restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, and a Promissory Note for $150,000. As a result, only 3,750,000 shares are committed to be later issued under the original 2012 acquisition agreement.

Other

 

On March 6, 2019, the Company entered into a Rule 11 Agreement to settle all prior disputes with Wildcat Consulting Group. As of the date of this report, the Company is in compliance with the Rule 11 Agreement, and the Parties have exchanged drafts of a Settlement Agreement to be completed before the abatement period ends October 30, 2019. The material terms of the Rule 11 Agreement are as follows:

 

  The Company will execute a new Promissory Note to replace the original Promissory Note, effective November 13, 2017, the effective date of the original note. The new Promissory Note has a maturity date of March 1, 2020 and provides for four equal payments of principal through such date, and accrued interest at 10% upon maturity.
     
  The Company shall pay $300,000 in settlement of the prior Consulting Agreement in 60 installments of $5,000 each month, until paid in full. [The $300,000 was accrued as of December 31, 2018, of which $10,000 was paid in the period ending March 31, 2019.]
     
  The Parties agreed to amend the existing Overriding Royalty Agreement (“ORRI”) between the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”), increasing Wildcat’s royalties from .25% (1/4 of 1%) to .375% (3/8 of 1%).

Such shares were valued at $120,000 and accrued for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Sales are recorded when products are shipped to customers. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

 

We evaluate our long-lived assets for financial impairment on a regular basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets not held for sale by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future discounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We conduct all of our transactions, including those with foreign suppliers and customers, in U.S. dollars. We are therefore not directly subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations and do not hedge or otherwise deal in currency instruments in an attempt to minimize such risks. Demand from foreign customers and the ability or willingness of foreign suppliers to perform their obligations to us may be affected by the relative change in value of such customer or supplier’s domestic currency to the value of the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, changes in the relative value of the U.S. dollar may change the price of our products relative to the prices of our foreign competitors.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Accounting Standard 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“ASC 718”) established financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. It defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. In January 2006, Greenway Technologies implemented ASC 718, and accordingly, we account for compensation cost for stock option plans in accordance with ASC 718.

 

Greenway accounts for share-based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation.” The update removes all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915 from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, the update adds an example disclosure in Risks and Uncertainties (Topic 275) to illustrate one way that an entity that has not begun planned principal operations could provide information about the risks and uncertainties related to Greenway Technologies’ current activities. Furthermore, the update removes an exception provided to development stage entities in Consolidations (Topic 810) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity-which may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a company that has an interest in a company in the development stage. The update is effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, including interim periods therein. Early application with the first annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued (Public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). We adopted this pronouncement for the three-months ended March 31, 2018.

 

With respect to FASB’s new lease accounting standard (Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)), the Company has elected to apply the new lease accounting standard on the adoption date, as provided by FASB in ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, whereby the Company will recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

There has been no material change in our market risks since the end of the fiscal year 2018.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a, et seq ) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the 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 its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

  26  
 

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer;
   
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and
   
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

In March 2019, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that as of March 31, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective.

 

We have identified the following deficiencies which together constitute a material weakness in our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2019:

 

Greenway Technologies has inadequate segregation of duties within its cash disbursement control design.

 

For the period ending March 31, 2019, Greenway internally performed all aspects of its financial reporting process, including, but not limited to the underlying accounting records and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statement due to the fact these duties were performed often times by the same people, a lack of review was created over the financial reporting process that might 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.

 

Greenway does not have a sufficient number of independent or qualified directors for its board and audit committee. We currently have three independent directors on our board, which is comprised of five directors, and we do not yet have a functioning audit committee, as the only otherwise qualified director is not independent. As a publicly traded company, we should strive to have a majority of our board of directors be independent.

 

Greenway is continuing the process of remediating its control deficiencies. However, the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that has been identified will not be remediated until numerous internal controls are implemented and operate for a period of time, are tested, and Greenway is able to conclude that such internal controls are operating effectively. We cannot provide assurance that these procedures will be successful in identifying material errors that may exist in our financial statements. We cannot make assurances that we will not identify additional material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting in the future. Management plans, as capital becomes available to us, to increase the accounting and financial reporting staff and provide future investments in the continuing education and public company accounting training of our accounting and financial professionals.

 

  27  
 

 

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control system, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have a material effect on our financial results. However, the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of independent directors on our board of directors resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can impact our financial statements.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

The Company was named as a co-defendant in an action brought against the Company and Mamaki Tea, Inc., alleging, among other things, that the Company was named as a co-guarantor on an $850,000 foreclosed note. On April 22, 2016, Greenway Technologies filed suit under Cause No. DC-16-004718, in the 193rd District Court, Dallas County, Texas against Mamaki of Hawaii, Inc. (“Mamaki”), Hawaiian Beverages, Inc.(“HBI”), Curtis Borman and Lee Jenison for breach of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated October 29, 2015, wherein the Company sold its shares in Mamaki to HBI for $700,000 (along with the assumption of certain debt). The Company maintained its guaranty on the original loan as a component of the sale transaction. The Defendants failed to make payments of $150,000 each on November 30, 2015, December 28, 2015 and January 27, 2016. On January 13, 2017, the parties executed a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (Agreement). However, the Defendants again defaulted in their payment obligations under this new Agreement. Curtis Borman and Lee Jennison were co-guarantors of the obligations of Mamaki and HBI. To secure their guaranties, each of Curtis Borman and Lee Jennsion posted 1,241,500 and 1,000,000 shares, respectively, of the Company. Under the Agreement, the shares were valued at $.20. Due to the default under the Agreement, these shares were returned to the Company’s treasury shares. Curtis Borman subsequently filed for bankruptcy and the property was liquidated for $600,000, applied against the prior loan amount, leaving a remaining guaranteed loan payment balance of approximately $700,000, including accrued interest and legal fees. The Company is currently in negotiations with the note holders and anticipates a positive resolution.

 

On April 9, 2108, the Company and Tonaquint, Inc. agreed to settle on Tonaquint’s exercise of a warrant option with a one-time issuance from Greenway Technologies of 1,600,000 shares of our common stock subject to a weekly leak out restriction equal to the greater of $10,000.00 and 8% of the weekly trading volume. Further, the issuance of stock was completed in connection with a legal opinion pursuant to Rule 144.

On September 7, 2018, Wildcat Consulting Group, LLC (“Wildcat”), a company controlled by a shareholder, filed suit against the Company alleging claims arising from a Consulting Agreement between the Parties, seeking to recover monetary damages, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees. On September 27, 2018, Wildcat filed a second suit against the Company alleging claims arising from a Promissory Note between the Parties, seeking to recover monetary damages, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees. On February 13, 2019, the Parties attended mediation which resulted in settlement discussions which resulted in a Rule 11 Agreement settling both disputes. Pursuant to the Rule 11 Agreement, the Parties have agreed to abate this case until the earlier of a default of the performance of the Rule 11 Agreement or October 30, 2019. The Rule 11 Agreement causes and allows the Parties time to draft and sign a Compromise Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (“Settlement Agreement”), to make payments due on or before October 15, 2019, and to allow for the transfer of stock to effectuate the terms of the Rule 11 Agreement. As of the date of this report, the Company is in compliance with the Rule 11 Agreement, and the Parties have exchanged drafts of the Settlement Agreement to be completed before the abatement period ends. The material terms of the Rule 11 Agreement are as follows:

 

  The Company will execute a new Promissory Note to replace the original Promissory Note, effective November 13, 2017, the effective date of the original note. The new Promissory Note has a maturity date of March 1, 2020 and provides for four equal payments of principal through such date, and accrued interest at 10% upon maturity.
     
  The Company shall pay $300,000 in settlement of the prior Consulting Agreement in 60 installments of $5,000 each month, until paid in full. [The $300,000 was accrued as of December 31, 2018, of which $10,000 was paid in the period ending March 31, 2019.]
     
  The Parties agreed to amend the existing Overriding Royalty Agreement (“ORRI”) between the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (“GIE”), increasing Wildcat’s royalties from .25% (1/4 of 1%) to .375% (3/8 of 1%).
     
  The Company shall pay Wildcat’s legal fees related to these matters, capped at $60,000, in three installments of $20,000 on June 1, August 1, and October 1, 2019.
     
  The Company shall issue 1,500,000 restricted shares of its Class A common stock on or before October 15, 2019, in consideration of the Promissory Note, in exchange for extinguishment of all prior granted warrants and to complete the grant of 1,000,000 shares not received from a prior transaction. Such shares were valued at $120,000 and accrued for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Provided the Company timely performs through October 15, 2019, the Parties will file a Joint Motion for Dismissal and present Agreed Orders of Dismissal with prejudice for both lawsuits. A copy of the Rule 11 Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.52.

 

On March 13, 2019, Chisos Equity Consultants, LLC (“Chisos”), a company controlled by a dissident shareholder, Richard Halden, filed suit against the Company alleging claims arising from a consulting agreement between the parties, seeking to recover monetary damages, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees. The Company answered the lawsuit and asserted a number of affirmative defenses. Greenway is confident in its defenses and intends to vigorously defend its interests.

The Company answered the lawsuit and asserted a number of affirmative defenses. Greenway is confident in its defenses and intends to vigorously defend its interests.

 

On March 26, 2019, the Company filed a verified petition for Declaratory Judgement, Ex Parte Application for a Temporary Restraining Order and Application for Injunctive Relief against the members of a dissident shareholders group (including Richard Halden) named the “Greenway Shareholders Committee” in Dallas County. A Temporary Restraining Order was issued by the court enjoining the Defendants (and their officers, agents, servants, employees and attorneys) and those persons in active concert or participation from; holding the special shareholders meeting on April 4, 2019 or calling such meeting to order; attending or participating in the Special Meeting; voting the shares of Plaintiff owned by any Defendant at the Special Meeting, either directly or by granting a proxy to allow a non-defendant to vote said shares; voting any shares of Plaintiff owned by non-defendants with or by proxy at the Special Meeting; and serving as chairman at the Special Meeting. On April 8, 2019, the court issued such Temporary Injunction against the dissident shareholders who received notice. The Injunction will continue until the trial date of December 10, 2019.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

We may not be able to raise the additional capital necessary to execute our business strategy which includes the production, sale and/or licensing of our proprietary GTL technology solutions to oil and gas operators in the United States and elsewhere.

 

Our ability to successfully execute such transactions may depend on our ability to raise additional debt and/or equity capital. Our ability to raise additional capital is uncertain and dependent upon numerous factors beyond our control, including but not limited to economic conditions, regulatory factors, reduced retail sales, increased taxation, reductions in consumer confidence, changes in levels of consumer spending, changes in preferences in how consumers pay for goods and services, weak housing markets and availability or lack of availability of credit. If we are unable to obtain additional capital, or if the terms thereof are too costly, we may be unable to successfully execute our business strategy.

 

  29  
 

 

Our limited operating history may not serve as an adequate basis to judge our future prospects and results of operations .

 

We are a development stage company and have a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our business and prospects. We have yet to develop sufficient experience regarding actual revenues to be received from our GTL Technology. You must consider the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by early stage companies in new and evolving markets. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks and uncertainties, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected. The risks and difficulties we face include challenges in accurate financial planning as a result of limited historical data and the uncertainties resulting from having had a relatively limited time period in which to implement and evaluate our business strategies as compared to older companies with longer operating histories.

 

We have historically incurred losses.

 

We are considered a pre-revenue or development stage company. We have incurred significant operating losses since inception. Due to the inherent risk of commercializing new technology, there can be no assurance that the Company will earn net income in the future and it may require additional capital in order to fund its operations, which it may not be able to source on acceptable terms.

 

Establishing our revenues and achieving profitability will depend on our ability to develop and commercialize our GTL Technology.

 

Much of our ability to establish revenues and to achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operations will depend on the successful introduction of our GTL technology. Our prospective customers will not use our GTL technology unless they determine that the benefits provided by our GTL solution is greater than those available from competing technologies and providers. Even if the advantages derived from our proprietary GTL technology is well established, prospective customers may elect not to use our GTL technology for a variety of reasons.

 

We may be required to undertake time-consuming and costly additional development activities and seek regulatory clearance or approval for new GTL technology. The completion of the development and commercialization of our GTL technology remains subject to all the risks associated with the commercialization of any GTL systems based on innovative technologies, including unanticipated technical or other problems, manufacturing difficulties and the possible insufficiency of the funds allocated for the completion of such development.

 

We may encounter substantial competition in our business and failure to compete effectively may adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.

 

We expect that we will be required to continue to invest in product development and productivity improvements to compete effectively in our markets. Our competitors could potentially develop a similar or more efficient GTL product or undertake more aggressive and costly marketing campaigns than ours, which may adversely affect our sales and marketing strategies and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Important factors affecting our ability to compete successfully include:

 

  current and future direct sales and marketing efforts by large competitors;
  rapid and effective development of new, unique GTL techniques; and
  new and aggressive pricing methodologies.

 

If substantial competitors enter our targeted markets, we may be unable to compete successfully against such existing or new competition. Most of our potential competitors have far greater resources than the Company today. In addition, there is significant competition for experienced personnel and financial capital in the oil and gas industry. Therefore, it can be difficult for smaller companies such as Greenway to attract the personnel and related investment for its various business activities needed to succeed. We cannot give any assurances that we will be able to successfully compete for such personnel and capital funds, and without adequate financial resources, Management cannot assure that we will be able to compete in our business activities.

The longevity of patents in the United Sates is limited in duration and may affect the Company’s long-term ability to successfully monetize the intellectual property it owns.

 

As of March 31, 2019, the Company owns United States Patents Nos. 8,574,501 B1 and 8,795,597 B2 covering its mobile GTL conversion technology for the purpose of converting natural gas to clean synthetic fuels. In the United States, a patent’s term may be up to 21 years if the earliest claimed filing date is that of a provisional application. Other legal provisions may, however, shorten or lengthen a patent’s term. In the United States, a patent’s term may, in certain cases, be lengthened by patent term adjustment, which compensates a patentee for administrative delays by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in examining and granting a patent. Alternatively, a patent’s term may be shortened if a patent is terminally disclaimed over a commonly owned patent or a patent naming a common inventor and having an earlier expiration date.

 

We are dependent on a limited number of key executives, consultants and equipment fabricators, the loss of any of which could negatively impact our business.

 

Our business is led by our President, John Olynick, and our Chief Financial Officer, Ransom Jones. Our engineering efforts are led by Thomas Phillips. In addition, we plan to continue to use outside consultants to support and perform the engineering and production work on our GTL technology. In that regard we have a Sponsored Research Agreement with UTA and have contracted manufacturing production with a heavy equipment fabricator in Texas.

 

If one or more of our senior executives or other key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them easily or at all, and our business may be disrupted, and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Competition for senior management and senior personnel in our industry is intense, the pool of qualified candidates is limited, and we may not be able to retain the services of our senior executives or senior personnel or attract and retain high-quality senior executives or senior personnel in the future. Such failure could materially and adversely affect our future growth and financial condition, and the loss of one or more of these executives, consultants or current fabricators could negatively impact our business and operations.

 

Our quarterly results may fluctuate substantially and if we fail to meet the expectations of our investors or analysts, our stock price could decline substantially.

 

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate, and if we fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, the trading price of our common stock could decline. Some of the important factors that could cause our revenue and operating results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter include:

 

  we are a small company with limited operating history;
     
  the limited scope of our sales and marketing efforts;
     
  our ability to attract new customers and satisfy our customers’ requirements;
     
  general economic conditions;
     
  changes in our pricing capabilities;
     
  our ability to expand our business;
     
  the effectiveness of our personnel;
     
  new product introductions; and
     
  extraordinary expenses such as litigation or other dispute-related settlement payments.

 

We may have difficulty in attracting and retaining outside independent directors to our board of directors as a result of their concerns relating to potentially increased personal exposure to lawsuits and shareholder claims by virtue of holding these positions.

 

The directors and management of companies are increasingly concerned with the extent of their personal exposure to lawsuits and shareholder claims, as well as governmental and creditor claims which may be made against them, particularly in view of recent changes in securities laws imposing additional duties, obligations and liabilities on management and directors. Due to these perceived risks, directors and management are also becoming increasingly concerned with the availability of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to pay on a timely basis the costs incurred in defending such claims. We currently carry directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Directors’ and Officers’ liability insurance has recently become much more expensive and difficult to obtain. If we are unable to continue or provide liability insurance at affordable rates or at all, it may become increasingly more difficult to attract and retain qualified outside directors to serve on our board of directors.

 

  31  
 

 

We may lose potential independent board members and management candidates to other companies that have greater directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to insure them from liability or to companies that have revenues or have received greater funding to date which can offer more lucrative compensation packages. The fees of directors are also rising in response to their increased duties, obligations and liabilities as well as increased exposure to such risks. As a company with limited operating history and resources, we will have a more difficult time attracting and retaining management and outside independent directors than a more established company due to these enhanced duties, obligations and liabilities.

 

Our future success relies upon our proprietary GTL Technology. We may not have the resources to enforce our proprietary rights through litigation or otherwise. The loss of exclusive right to our GTL Technology could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We believe that our GTL technology does not infringe upon the valid proprietary intellectual property rights of others. Even so, third parties may still assert infringement claims against us. If infringement claims are brought against us, we may not have the financial resources to defend against such claims or prevent an adverse judgment against us. In the event of an unfavorable ruling on any such claim, a license or similar agreement to utilize the intellectual property rights in question relied upon by us in the conduct of our business may not be available to us on reasonable terms, if terms are offered at all.

 

Our ability to obtain field related operating hazards insurance may be constrained by our limited operational history.

 

The oil and natural gas business involves a variety of operating risks, including the risk of fire, explosions, blow-outs, pipe failure, abnormally pressured formations and environmental hazards such as oil spills, natural gas leaks, ruptures or discharges of toxic gases. If any of these should occur, we could incur legal defense costs and could suffer substantial losses due to injury or loss of life, severe damage to or destruction of property, natural resources and equipment, pollution or other environmental damage, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties, and suspension of operations. We plan to carry comprehensive general liability insurance will further provide workers’ compensation insurance coverage to employees in all states in which we will operate.

 

While these policies are customary in the industry, they do not provide complete coverage against all operating risks, and as a small operator, we may not be able to obtain sufficient coverage. In addition, our insurance may not cover penalties or fines that may be assessed by a governmental authority. A loss not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Our insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover every claim made against us or may not be commercially available for purchase in the future.

 

Our future revenues are unpredictable, and our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly.

 

We only have a limited operating history and cannot forecast with any degree of certainty whether our GTL technology will generate revenue, or that the amount of revenue to be generated will be profitable. In addition, we cannot predict the consistency of our quarterly operating results. Factors which may cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter include:

 

  Our ability to attract new and repeat customers;
     
  Our ability to keep current with the evolving requirements of our target market;
     
  Our ability to protect our proprietary GTL Technology;
     
  The ability of our competitors to offer new or enhanced GTL services; and
     
  Unanticipated delays or cost increases with respect to research and development.

 

Our GTL Technology is subject to the changing of applicable U.S. laws and regulations.

 

Our business is particularly subject to federal and state laws and regulations with respect to the oil and gas and mining industries. Our success depends in part on our ability to anticipate and respond to these changes, and we may not respond in a timely or commercially appropriate manner to such changes.

 

  32  
 

 

Acts of terrorism, responses to acts of terrorism and acts of war may impact our business and our ability to raise capital.

 

Future acts of war or terrorism, national or international responses to such acts, and measures taken to prevent such acts may harm our ability to raise capital or our ability to operate, especially to the extent we depend upon activities conducted in foreign countries. In addition, the threat of future terrorist acts or acts of war may have effects on the general economy or on our business that are difficult to predict. We are not insured against damage or interruption of our business caused by terrorist acts or acts of war.

 

We may fail to establish and maintain strategic relationships.

 

We believe that the establishment of strategic partnerships and customer relationships will greatly benefit the growth of our business, and the deployment of our GTL technology, and we intend to seek out and enter into strategic alliances, joint ventures and similar production relationships. We may not be able to enter into these strategic partnerships on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Even if we enter such relationships, our partners may not have sufficient production to provide profitable revenues or otherwise prove advantageous to our business. Our inability to enter into such new relationships or strategic alliances could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

 

Risks Relating to Our Mining Properties

 

As discussed above, although we still own mining properties, we do not currently conduct any mining operations. However, there are still risks associated with our mining properties, including those risks described below.

 

Our mining properties do not have quantified known reserves.

 

None of the properties in which we have an interest have any known reserves. To date, we have engaged in only limited preliminary exploration and assay activities on the leased properties. Accordingly, we do not have sufficient information upon which to assess the ultimate success of our exploration efforts.

 

There are uncertainties as to title matters in the mining industry. Any defects in such title could cause us to lose our rights in mineral properties and jeopardize our business operations.

 

Our mineral properties consist of claims to mineral rights on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”), a department of the United States Government. Our mining properties in the United States are mining claims located on lands administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”), to which we have only mining rights to recover minerals. The mining claims are renewable annual and if not paid, revert back to the BLM. These uncertainties relate to such things as sufficiency of mineral discovery, proper location and posting and marking of boundaries, and possible conflicts with other claims not determinable from descriptions of record. We believe a substantial portion of all mineral exploration, development and mining in the United States now occurs on unpatented mining claims, and this uncertainty is inherent in the mining industry.

 

The present status of our mining claims located on BLM lands allows us the right to mine and remove valuable minerals, such as precious and base metals, from the claims conditioned upon applicable environmental reviews and permitting programs. We also are generally allowed to use the surface of the land solely for purposes related to mining and processing the mineral-bearing ores. However, legal ownership of the land remains with the United States. We remain at risk that the mining claims may be forfeited either to the United States due to failure to comply with statutory requirements. Prior to 1994, a mining claim locator who was able to prove the discovery of valuable, locatable minerals on a mining claim, and to meet all other applicable federal and state requirements and procedures pertaining to the location and maintenance of federal unpatented mining claims, had the right to prosecute a patent application to secure fee title to the mining claim from the Federal government. The right to pursue a patent, however, has been subject to a moratorium since October 1994, through federal legislation restricting the BLM from accepting any new mineral patent applications. There may be challenges to title to the mineral properties in which we hold a material interest. If there are title defects with respect to any properties, we might be required to compensate other persons or perhaps reduce our interest in the affected property. Also, in any such case, the investigation and resolution of title issues would divert our management’s time from ongoing production, exploration and development programs.

 

We are required to share our profits derived from properties in which we do not own 100% fee title.

 

Under BLM related law, we are required to pay the BLM ten percent (10%) of any revenues derived from sales of minerals from the leased property.

Risks Relating to Our Stock

 

We may need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise additional capital, our business may fail, or our operating results and our share price may be materially adversely affected.

 

Because we have no record of profitable operations, we need to secure adequate funding on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to obtain adequate funding, we may not be able to successfully develop and market our GTL Technology and our business will most likely fail. We have limited commitments for financing. To secure additional financing, we may need to borrow money or sell more securities, which may reduce the value of our outstanding securities. We may be unable to secure additional financing on favorable terms, or at all.

 

Selling additional shares, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of our shareholders. If we borrow money, we will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions that limit our operating flexibility. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may have to curtail business operations, which would have a material negative effect on operating results and most likely result in a lower share price.

 

Issuance of additional common stock in exchange for services or to repay debt would dilute a shareholder’s proportionate ownership and voting rights and could have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

 

Our board of directors may generally issue shares of common stock to pay for debt or services rendered, without further approval by our shareholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant in their sole discretion. It is likely that that the Company will issue additional securities to pay for services and reduce debt in the future.

 

Even though our shares are publicly traded, an investor’s shares may not be “free-trading.”

 

Investors should understand that their shares of our common stock are not “free-trading” merely because Greenway is a publicly traded company. For shares to become “free-trading,” the shares must be registered, or entitled to an exemption from registration under applicable law.

 

An investor may be unable to sell his common stock at or above his purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to the investor.

 

The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our common stock: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; government regulations, announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures; our capital commitments; and additions or departures of our key personnel. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common stock will be at any time, including as to whether our common stock will sustain the current market price, or as to what effect the sale of shares or the availability of common stock for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

 

If we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTCQB, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of shareholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

 

Companies trading on the OTCQB must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and must be current in their reports under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTCQB. If we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTCQB.

 

Volatility in our share price may subject the Company to securities litigation.

 

There is a limited market for our shares. The market for our shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share prices will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.

 

  34  
 

 

We do not intend to pay dividends.

 

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Earnings, if any, that we may realize will be retained in the business for further development and expansion. Our ability to pay dividends may be restricted under our Loan Agreement.

 

Our substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition.

 

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, which requires significant interest payments. As of March 31, 2019, we had $4,183,884 of accrued liabilities and $1,075,036 of debt bearing average cash interest of 14.4% per year when current, and 18% default interest if certain loans are not current. As of the date of this report, the Company is currently in default of certain loans and therefore has $1,075,036 of current debt bearing an average cash interest of 18% per year.

 

Our substantial level of indebtedness could have important consequences, including the following:

 

  We must use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay interest, which reduces funds available to us for other purposes, such as working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes;
     
  our ability to refinance such indebtedness or to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be impacted; and
     
  our leverage may be greater than that of some of our competitors, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage and reduce our flexibility in responding to current and changing industry and financial market conditions.

 

Our ability to meet expenses and to make future principal and interest payments in respect of our debt, depends on, among other things, our future operating performance, competitive developments and financial market conditions, all of which are significantly affected by financial, business, economic and other factors. We are not able to control many of these factors. If industry and economic conditions deteriorate, our cash flow may not be sufficient to allow us to pay principal and interest on our debt and meet our other obligations.

 

Future sales of large amounts of our common stock could have a negative impact on our stock price.

 

Future sales of our common stock by existing stockholders pursuant to an effective registration statement covering the resale of such shares or Rule 144 could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could materially impair our future ability to generate funds through sales of our equity securities.

 

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the trading market in our common stock will be limited, which would make transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the investment value of our stock.

 

The term “penny stock” generally refers to a security issued by a smaller reporting company that trades at less than $5.00 per share. Penny stocks are generally quoted over-the-counter, such as on the OTCPK or OTCQB which are owned by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (our shares are traded on the OTCQB); penny stocks may, however, also trade on securities exchanges, including foreign securities exchanges. In addition, the definition of penny stock can include the securities of certain private companies with no active trading market.

 

Penny stocks may trade infrequently, which means that it may be difficult to sell penny stock shares once you own them. Moreover, because it may be difficult to find quotations for certain penny stocks, they may be difficult, or even impossible, to accurately price. For these, and other reasons, penny stocks are generally considered speculative investments. Consequently, investors in penny stocks should be prepared for the possibility that they may lose their whole investment (or an amount in excess of their investment if they purchased penny stocks on margin).

 

Because of the speculative nature of penny stocks, Congress prohibited broker-dealers from effecting transactions in penny stocks unless they comply with the requirements of Section 15(h) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder. These SEC rules provide, among other things, that a broker-dealer must (1) approve the customer for the specific penny stock transaction and receive from the customer a written agreement to the transaction; (2) furnish the customer a disclosure document describing the risks of investing in penny stocks; (3) disclose to the customer the current market quotation, if any, for the penny stock; and (4) disclose to the customer the amount of compensation the firm and its broker will receive for the trade. In addition, after executing the sale, a broker-dealer must send to its customer monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

  35  
 

 

The market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.

 

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

 

  Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
     
  Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
     
  Boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced salespersons;
     
  Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
     
  The wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequential investor losses.

 

Management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, the Company’s management will strive to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

 

Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires us to evaluate annually the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting in our annual report. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

While we continue to dedicate resources and management time to ensuring that we have effective controls over financial reporting, failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have a material adverse effect on the market’s perception of our business and our stock price.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, we issued 766,667 shares of restricted common stock to 3 individuals through their exercise of warrants priced at $0.01/share related to Promissory Notes the Company entered in 2018.

 

Our unregistered securities were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 506(3) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Each investor took his/her securities for investment purposes without a view to distribution and had access to information concerning us and our business prospects, as required by the Securities Act. In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for the purchase of our securities. Our securities were sold only to accredited investors and current shareholders as defined in the Securities Act with whom we had a direct personal, preexisting relationship, and after a thorough discussion. Each certificate contained a restrictive legend as required by the Securities Act. Finally, our stock transfer agent has been instructed not to transfer any of such securities, unless such securities are registered for resale or there is an exemption with respect to their transfer.

 

All of the above described investors who received shares of our common stock were provided with access to our filings with the SEC, including the following:

 

  The information contained in our annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act.
     
  The information contained in any reports or documents required to be filed by Greenway Technologies under sections 13(a), 14(a), 14(c), and 15(d) of the Exchange Act since the distribution or filing of the reports specified above.
     
  A brief description of the securities being offered, and any material changes in our affairs that were not disclosed in the documents furnished.
