EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 4, 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued an order (Release No. 34-88318) under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), granting exemptions from specified provisions of the Exchange Act and certain rules thereunder. On March 25, 2020, the order was modified and superseded by a new SEC order (Release No. 34-88465) that provides conditional relief to public companies that are unable to timely comply with their filing obligations as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak (the “Order”).

Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (the “10-Q”) in reliance on the Order due to circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the requirements of the Order, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC on May 13, 2020 to delay the filing of the 10-Q. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations resulted in delays in the receipt, compiling and processing of information necessary for the preparation of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 10-K”), which such report was filed with the SEC on June 26, 2020. The delay in filing the 2019 10-K has resulted in additional delays in the receipt, compiling and processing of information necessary for the preparation of the 10-Q.

BROWNIE’S MARINE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Company Overview

Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Brownies,” the “Company,” “our” or “BWMG”), designs, tests, manufactures and distributes recreational hookah diving, yacht based scuba air compressor and nitrox generation systems, scuba and water safety products through its wholly owned subsidiary Trebor Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation organized in 1981 (“Trebor”), and manufactures and sells high pressure air and industrial compressor packages (“Legacy SSA Products”) through its wholly owned subsidiary Brownie’s High Pressure Compressor Services, Inc., a Florida corporation organized in 2017 (“BHP”). In addition, in December 2017, the Company formed BLU3, Inc., a Florida corporation (“BLU3”), to develop and market innovation electric shallow dive systems (“Ultra Dive Systems”). During the first quarter of 2020 BLU3 has been engaged in the development of the BLU3 Vent, a ventilator utilizing the Company’s existing BLU3 technology. See Note 10. When used herein, the “Company” or “BWMG” includes Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc., and our wholly-owned subsidiaries Trebor, BHP and BLU3.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The following unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 has been derived from the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by an independent registered public accounting firm but does not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on June 26, 2020 for a broader discussion of our business and the risks inherent in such business.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BWMG and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Trebor, BHP and BLU3. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from the sale of all of our products to wholesale and retail customers. The allowance for doubtful accounts are estimated based on historical customer experience and industry knowledge. The allowances for doubtful accounts totaled $12,090 and $17,784 at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

We account for revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments. This standards core principal is that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to receive.

We recognize the sale of products under single performance obligations upon shipment of the units as that is when ownership is transferred and our performance is completed. Revenues from repair and maintenance activities is recognized when the repairs are completed and the units have been shipped.

Lease Accounting

On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new lease standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the lease accounting standard in effect for those periods.

The lease standard requires all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease obligations. We elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance of the new standard that retained the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard. We did not reassess whether any contracts entered into prior to adoption are leases or contain leases.

We categorize leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance. Finance leases are generally those leases that would allow us to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. Assets acquired under finance leases are recorded in property and equipment, net. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. We did not have any finance leases as of March 31, 2020. Our leases generally have terms that range from three years for equipment and five to twenty years for property. We elected the accounting policy to include both the lease and non-lease components of our agreements as a single component and account for them as a lease.

Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the fixed lease payments using a discount rate based on similarly secured borrowings available to us. Lease assets are recognized based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments, reduced by landlord incentives, plus any direct costs from executing the leases. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. Leasehold improvements are capitalized at cost and amortized over the lesser of their expected useful life or the lease term.

When we have the option to extend the lease term, terminate the lease before the contractual expiration date, or purchase the leased asset, and it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option, we consider these options in determining the classification and measurement of the lease. Costs associated with operating lease assets are recognized on a straight-line basis within operating expenses over the term of the lease.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 the lease expense was approximately $35,000 and $41,500. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 cash paid for operating liabilities was approximately $31,803 and $30,938, respectively

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows:

Operating Leases	March 31, 2020
Right-of-use assets	$	521,175
Current lease liabilities	$	100,411
Non-current lease liabilities		420,764
Total lease liabilities	$	521,175

Employee Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. ASC 718 requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company has elected to adopt ASU 2016-09 and has a policy to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation:

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-7”), which aligns accounting for share-based payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees under the existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equity-based payments to nonemployees under Subtopic 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”), which aligns accounting for share-based payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees under the existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equity-based payments to nonemployees under Subtopic 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.

All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Non-employee equity-based payments are recorded as an expense over the service period, as if the Company had paid cash for the services. At the end of each financial reporting period, prior to vesting or prior to the completion of the services, the fair value of the equity-based payments will be re-measured and the non-cash expense recognized during the period will be adjusted accordingly. Since the fair value of equity-based payments granted to non-employees is subject to change in the future, the amount of the future expense will include fair value re-measurements until the equity-based payments are fully vested or the service completed.

Earnings per common share

Basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive. At March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, 87,389,986 and 68,386,823, respectively, of potentially dilutive shares were not recognized as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. These shares reflect shares potentially issuable under convertible note agreements, outstanding warrants, outstanding stock options and the conversion of preferred stock.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Note 3. Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the date of these consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 the Company incurred a net loss of $296,693, has an accumulated deficit of $11,901,211 and a working capital deficit of $439,000. These circumstances raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to increase revenues, control expenses, raise capital, and to continue to sustain adequate working capital to finance its operations. The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability and cash flows would be detrimental to the Company. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

Note 5. COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic. In response to this declaration and the rapid spread of COVID-19 within the United States, federal, state and local governments throughout the country have imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activity to promote social distancing in an effort to slow the spread of the illness. These measures have begun to have a significant adverse impact upon many sectors of the economy, including retail commerce.

In response to these measures, the “stay at home” order issued in April 2020 by the Governor of the State of Florida where our business is located, and for the protection of our employees and customers, we temporarily reduced non-essential staffing at our corporate office and altered work schedules at our manufacturing and warehouse facilities. In addition, some of our senior management and our office personnel began working remotely and maintaining full capabilities to serve our customers. Earlier, in mid-March 2020 we had taken steps to increase production to build up our finished goods inventory as well as purchasing additional raw material inventory items thereby allowing us to maintain production if supply chain interruptions were to happen. During the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020 we experienced an impact on our sales to our brick and mortar customers as many of the retail dealer stores temporarily closed. In response, we ramped up our direct to consumer engagement. On May 4, 2020 the Florida “stay at home” order was lifted and the phased reopening of the State of Florida began. We have resumed all of our historic operations, and all personnel have returned to full time work at our corporate office and manufacturing and warehouse facilities. In addition, our historic attendance at boat shows and similar marketing events has been an important part of our marketing and sales strategy. As we do not expect that those type of events will be held in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have migrated our marketing focus to online marketing in an effort to maintain product visibility.

While we are not able to estimate the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial condition and future results of operations, depending on the prolonged impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, this situation had a significant adverse effect on our reported results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results and financial condition, however, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge and the actions to contain and treat its impacts, among others.

The minimum royalty was temporarily increased to $60,000 for fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024, with a fourth quarter true up against earned royalties. In addition, if the Company should terminate the agreements with STS prior to December 31, 2023, then the Company is obligated to pay STS $180,000, less cumulative royalties paid in excess of $334,961 for the years 2019 through 2024.

On August 1, 2020, BLU3 entered into an advertising and marketing agreement with Figment Design. The term of the agreement is for one year beginning August 1, 2020, and thereafter renew or cancel the agreement in writing 60 days before the final date. Figment Design will bill BLU3 $3,500 per month as retainer and $1,500 to $2,000 for monthly ad spend.

On August 1, 2020 BLU3 entered into a marketing agreement with This Way Media PTY, Ltd. The term of this agreement is for 11 months and can be cancelled with 30 days notice during the first 90 days of the agreement. After the first 90 days, the agreement can be cancelled with 60 days notice after the completion of the term of the agreement. BLU3 will pay This Way Media PTY, LTD $500 per month, and 5% of each affiliate sale.

On August 10, 2020 the Company engaged Brandywine, LLC to provide certain advisory and consulting services to it under the terms of a letter agreement. As compensation for the services, we agreed to pay Brandywine, LLC an hourly rate of $125.00 and issue it 10,000 shares of our common stock for each hour billed, which such shares are issuable to a designee of Brandywine, LLC in its discretion, and reimburse it for pre-approved expenses.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

BWMG designs, tests, manufactures and distributes recreational hookah diving, yacht based scuba air compressor and nitrox generation systems, scuba and water safety products. We also manufacture and sell high pressure air and industrial gas compressor packages. Our product segments are Legacy SSA Products, High Pressure Gas Systems and Ultra Portable Tankless Dive Systems.

The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Company

To further bolster our working capital, on May 12, 2020, we received a loan in the principal amount of $159,600 (the “SBA Loan”), under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was established under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The intent and purpose of the PPP is to support companies, during the COVID-19 pandemic, by providing funds for certain specified business expenses, with a focus on payroll. As a qualifying business as defined by the SBA, we are using the proceeds from this loan to primarily help maintain our payroll as we navigate our business with a focus on returning to normal operations.

The term of the note is two years, though it may be payable sooner in connection with an event of default under the Note. The SBA Loan carries a fixed interest rate of one percent per year, with the first payment due seven months from the date of initial cash receipt. Under the CARES Act and the PPP, certain amounts of loans made under the PPP may be forgiven if the recipients use the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll costs and certain rent or utility costs, and meet other requirements regarding, among other things, the maintenance of employment and compensation levels. We intend to use the SBA Loan for qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the SBA Loan in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act.

While we are not able to estimate the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial condition and future results of operations, depending on the prolonged impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, this situation had a significant adverse effect on our reported results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as the closures slowed the quarterly growth that was building for the first two months of 2020. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results and financial condition, however, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge and the actions to contain and treat its impacts, among others.

Results of Operations

Net Revenues, Costs of Net Revenues and Gross Profit

Overall, our net revenues increased 21.7% in the First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019, which included an increase of 24.9% in net revenue from sales to third parties and an increase of 12.9% in sales to related parties. Our cost of net revenues in the First Quarter of 2020 was 83.8% of our total net revenues as compared to 83.2% in First Quarter of 2019. Included in our cost of net revenues are royalty expenses we pay to Robert M. Carmichael, our Chairman and CEO, which increased 85.3% in the First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019. We reported an overall. gross profit margin of 16.2% in the First Quarter of 2020 as compared to 16.8% in the First Quarter of 2019.

Beginning with the third quarter of 2019 we began reporting our net revenues, costs of net revenues and gross profit in three segments based upon these product lines. The following tables provides net revenues, costs of net revenues which is exclusive of the royalties we pay Mr. Carmichael and gross profit margins for our segments for the First Quarter of 2020 and the First Quarter of 2019.

Legacy SSA Products segment

The decline in net revenues from this segment for the First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019 relates to impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the majority of the country and therefore, our retail sales outlets were nearly shut down for the month of March, 2020. Prior to the pandemic, sales of for the first two months of 2020 were trending to meet or exceed the revenue for the same period in 2019.

Our costs of revenues as a percentage of net revenues in this segment decreased in the First Quarter of 2020 as compared to the First Quarter of 2019. The decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenue is a result of better margins coming from an increase in direct to consumer sales during the first quarter of 2020. The increase came despite the fixed costs in cost of revenues that remained while the Company was transitioning its expense structure to accommodate for the potential continued lower sales volume created by the COVID-19 pandemic.

High Pressure Gas Systems segment

The increase in net revenues from this segment for the First Quarter of 2020 from the comparable period in 2019, reflects penetration in the breathing air market in the diving industry. The segment was continuing the momentum from 2019, but saw a reduction in sales during March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe the increased revenue is attributable to the recognition and acceptance of the L&W brand is growing steadily and we expect sales to increase steadily as our exposure increases.

Our costs of revenues as a percentage of net revenues in this segment decreased slightly in the First Quarter of 2020 as compared to the First Quarter of 2019. Increased margins from a shift in customer base, away from wholesalers and more direct to consumer, were offset by the increase in cost of revenues is due to COVID-19 pandemic, with the inability to reduce fixed cost of sales expenses in correlation with the unexpected revenue decrease that occurred during March 2020.

Ultra Portable Tankless Dive Systems

We started building and shipping our Ultra Portable Tankless Dive Systems (Nemo) in the third quarter of 2019. During the First Quarter of 2020, the sales channel was still developing in our direct to consumer channels.

Our cost of revenue from this segment as percentage of net revenues in the First Quarter of 2020 may not be reflective of our margins on this segment in future periods. The COVID-19 pandemic, along with the inefficiencies in production of a new product line, have contributed to the current level of cost of sales.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, consisting of SG&A and research and development costs, and are reported on a consolidated basis for our operating segments. Overall, our operating expenses increased 12.6% for the First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019.

SG&A increased 17.9% for First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019 which is primarily attributable an increase in advertising and marketing expense of 100% or approximately $17,000, and an increase of 21.1% in administrative payroll, including non-cash compensation, or approximately $40,000, from the comparable 2019 period.

Research and development costs declined 45.6% for the First Quarter of 2020 from the comparable period in 2019 as a result of a reduction in R&D costs associated with the Ultra-Portable Tankless Dive Systems segment. The BLU3 segment completed the R&D phase of the Nemo project and moved it into a marketable system during the third quarter of 2019, therefore, R&D costs during first quarter of 2020 were significantly reduced. The current R&D expenses are primarily related to development of the batteries in our Sea Lion product.

Total Other Expense

Total other expense increased $3,864 or 188.3% in the First Quarter of 2020 from the First Quarter of 2019, which is primarily attributable the interest expense on the convertible debentures, and interest expense on the Marlin Capital loan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for cash. The following table summarized total current assets, total current liabilities and working capital (deficit) at March 31, 2020 (unaudited) as compared to December 31, 2019.

	March 31,			December 31,			% of
	2020			2019			change
Total current assets	$	921,271		$	998,304			(7.7	)%
Total current liabilities	$	1,360,271		$	1,402,941			(3.0	)%
Working capital (deficit)	$	(439,000	)	$	(404,637	)		8.5	%

The decrease in our current assets at March 31, 2020 from December 31, 2019 principally reflects decreases in accounts receivable and cash, offset by an increase in inventory, net. The decrease in our total current liabilities principally reflects increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities offset by declines in accounts payable – related parties, operating lease liabilities, and customer deposits and unearned income.

Summary Cash Flows

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019

Net cash used by operating activities	$	(197,583	)	$	(143,069	)
Net cash used by investing activities	$	-		$	-
Net cash provided by financing activities	$	162,863		$	500,000

Net cash used in operating activities for the First Quarter of 2020 was primarily the result of a net loss of $296,693 along with usages via an increase of inventory of $80,202 and a decrease in customer deposits of $72,911 and a decrease in accounts payable – related party of $23,306 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The usages were offset by a generation of cash from accounts receivable of $103,343 as of March 31, 2020 as well as a decrease in prepaid expenses of $24,998 for the same period.

Net cash provided by financing activities in the First Quarter of 2020 period reflects proceeds from the sale of common stock via an offering as well as the exercising of warrants.

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

As set forth in Note 3, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in this report were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the 12-month period following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 contained a going concern qualification.

We have a history of losses and our cash flow is not sufficient to fund our operations and our growth plans. At March 31, 2020 we had $35,900 in cash on hand and a $439,000 working capital deficit. As set forth in Note 6 appearing earlier in this report, we are past due on the repayment of a $10,000 convertible debenture and we have an additional $110,000 in loans which are due on demand. In addition to funds to pay our obligations, we estimate that we need to raise approximately $500,000 in additional working capital over the next 12 months, however, we do not presently have any binding commitments for such funds. We are continuing to engage in discussions with potential sources for this required additional capital, however, our ability to raise capital is somewhat limited based upon our revenue levels, net losses and limited market for our common stock. If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or if we do not have sufficient cash flows from operations, we may be required to scale back or cease certain of our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition, valuation of inventory, allowance for doubtful accounts, and equity based transactions. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing earlier in this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. These recent accounting pronouncements are described in Note 2 to our notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing earlier in this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of Robert Carmichael, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2020. Based upon that evaluation the Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report as a result of the following:

● the continuing material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as described in Item 9A. of our 2019 10-K;

● our management failed to timely obtain the requisite consent of our Board of Directors to certain corporate actions, including the extension of the payment of Board fees to our directors, including Mr. Carmichael; and to the approval of certain contracts which contemplate the issuance of shares of our common stock; and

● our inability to file this report within the periods prescribed, including after taking advantage of the Order described earlier in this report under the Explanatory Notes.

In addition to the significant delay in the timely filing of this report, as of the date of this report, we have also failed to timely file our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020 which was due on August 14, 2020. In August 2020 we engaged a firm to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements and our periodic reports to be filed with the SEC. We expect this this firm will provide much needed support to our accounting department which will enable us to file our periodic reports with the SEC on a timely basis. We do not, however, expect that the weaknesses in our disclosure controls will be remediated until such time as we remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report 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

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We incorporate by reference the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered sales of equity securities and use of proceeds

None, except as previously reported.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE

None.

Item 5. Other Information

During early 2020 an offer of settlement for $50,000 was made by the Company to the Estate of Ernesto Rodriguez (Case No. CACE-15-03238 and CACE -16-0000242). The settlement was accepted and the Circuit Court in and for Broward County, Florida entered an Order on May 15, 2020 which approved the settlement. The Final Order of Dismissal was entered on behalf of the Company and Trebor on May 13, 2020. The $50,000 settlement amount is payable in installments through May 19, 2022. On August 25, 2020 the Court approved a joint motion to modify the settlement to a lump sum payment of 88.4% of the original settlement amount. The Company paid the modified settlement amount on August 25, 2020.

The foregoing description of the terms of Amendment No. 2 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.

Previously, effective July 29, 2019 the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a Board compensation policy pursuant to which each member of the Company’s Board of Directors, including Mr. Robert M. Carmichael, a management director, would receive an annual fee of $18,000 for serving on the Company’s Board of Directors for the year ending December 31, 2019. On August 21, 2020 the Company’s Board of Directors approved the continuation of the 2019 Board compensation policy for the year ending December 31, 2020.
