CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The information contained in this Report, including in the documents incorporated by reference into this Report, includes some statements that are not purely historical and that are “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our Company and management’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future, including our financial condition, results of operations, and the expected impact of the offering on the parties’ individual and combined financial performance. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plans,” “possible,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “seeks,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions, or the negatives of such terms, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Report are based on current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and the potential effects on the parties and the transaction. There can be no assurance that future developments actually affecting us will be those anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the parties’ control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date stated, or if no date is stated, as of the date hereof.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this Report.

Energy and Water Development Corp.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1. Incorporation and Nature of Operations
Energy and Water Development Corp. (the “Corporation”, “Company” or “EAWD”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on December 12, 2007. In September 2019, the Company changed its name from Eurosport Active World Corp. to Energy and Water Development Corp. to better present the Company’s purpose and business sector. We are an engineering services company formed as an outsourcing green tech platform, seeking to exploit renewable energy and water technologies.
On May 7th, 2021, the Company established an official Branch to initiate operations and assist on the establishment of an official subsidiary. On November 9, 2021, the Company established an official Subsidiary of EAWD in Germany to ensure the company is positioned to service its growing business in one of the EU’s most environmentally progressive countries. The company was incorporated under the name of Energy and Water development Deutschland GmbH, in Hamburg.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EAWD and its subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp. and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements of Energy and Water Development Corp. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, have been omitted.
Foreign currency translation
The United States dollar (“USD”) is the Company’s reporting currency. The Company has a subsidiary located in Germany. The net sales generated, and the related expenses directly incurred from the operations, if any, are denominated in local currency, Euro (“Euro”). The functional currency of the subsidiary is generally the same as the local currency.
Assets and liabilities measured in Euros are translated into USD at the prevailing exchange rates in effect as of the financial statement date and the related gains and losses, net of applicable deferred income taxes, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in its balance sheets. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 the Company used a spot rate of 1.11 and an average rate of 1.12 when converting EURO to USD.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the condensed financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the useful life of property and equipment, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.
Leases
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases (“ASC 842”). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).
At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable.
Cash
The Company considers short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has $412,051 and $589,668 cash at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. A reserve is established if necessary to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets include prepaid inventory, purchase deposits, miscellaneous prepaid expenses, value added tax receivable, and a security deposit.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset’s estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property and Equipment are as follows:
Useful Life (in years) | |
Office equipment | 5 |
Furniture and fixtures | 7 |
Automobile | 8 |

Energy and Water Development Corp.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities. These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, unamortized deferred financing costs were $0 and $6,663, respectively and are netted against the related debt.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,
Level 2 – Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.
The application of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10-35, our derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, were $0 and $354,160, respectively and measured on Level 3 inputs.
Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred cost and deferred revenue have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.
The Corporation accounts for earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10, “Earnings Per Share”, which establishes the requirements for presenting earnings per share (“EPS”). FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10 requires the presentation of “basic” and “diluted” EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS amounts are calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the exercise of all stock options, warrants and convertible securities having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the periods, using the treasury stock method. When a loss from operations exists, potential common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would result in an anti-dilutive effect on per share amounts.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
As discussed more fully in Note 10, convertible note holders have the option of converting their loans into common shares subject to the terms and features offered by the specific convertible notes. Some note holders were also granted purchase options to purchase additional shares subject to the features of each purchase option. If the convertible note holders of unexercised convertible notes exercised their conversion feature and the additional purchase options, they would represent
and in additional common shares at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The potential shares from both the conversion feature and the rights to purchase additional shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive.
Related Party Transactions
A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. A related party is generally defined as:
(i) | any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities including such person’s immediate families, | |
(ii) | the Company’s management, | |
(iii) | someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or | |
(iv) | anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. |
Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Corporation’s future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.
On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modification or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”), which will clarify and reduce diversity in practice. Specifically, the new standard includes a recognition model comprising four categories of transactions and corresponding accounting treatment for each category. The category that would apply to a modification or an exchange of an equity-classified warrant would depend on the substance of the modification transaction (e.g., a financing transaction to raise equity versus one to raise debt). This recognition model is premised on the idea that the accounting for the transaction should not differ from what it would have been had the issuer of the warrants paid cash instead of modifying the warrants. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments” and ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief” which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842),” which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered small reporting companies (“SRC”) as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC, implementation is not needed until January 1, 2023. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect of adopting ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

Note 4. Going Concern
During the year ended December 31, 2021, pursuant to an equipment sale agreement, the Company recognized revenue of $550,000 for the sale of equipment, along with $350,000 for the cost of construction, earning $200,000 gross profit. The Company has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $22,754,103 at March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Corporation incurred net losses of $358,710. The Company had working capital of $70,491 at March 31, 2022.
The Company’s ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.
Management expects sales operations to continue to expand. If necessary, the Company will need to raise additional funds during 2022. Management of the Company intends to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities or debt, credit lines or advances from suppliers. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Derivative Liability
The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion options and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.
Based on the various convertible notes described above, the fair value of applicable derivative liabilities on notes and change in fair value of derivative liability are as follows as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
Total | ||||
Balance of derivative liability as of December 31, 2020 | $ | 310,641 | ||

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed financial statements and the notes to those condensed financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”
RESULTS of OPERATIONS
Results of Operations for the Three Months ended March 31, 2022 Compared to the three Months ended March 31, 2021
Revenue
The Company recognized no revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Cost of equipment sold
The Company recognized no cost of equipment sold during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expense increased by $137,630 to $443,112 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $305,482 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in professional fees of $44,896, officer’s salaries of $38,237, and other general and administrative expenses by $114,363, offset by a decrease in marketing fees of $71,941.
Other Income (Expense)
The Company had other income of $84,402 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to other expense of $128,570 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in income is primarily the result of a reduction in interest expense of $314,472 offset by a decrease in the gain on derivative liability of $66,695 and increase in other expense of $34,805.
Net Loss
Net loss decreased by $75,342 to $358,710 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $434,052 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was attributable to the net increases and decreases as discussed above.
LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had $412,051 cash and working capital of $70,491 at March 31, 2022. Our operating and capital requirements in connection with supporting our operations will continue to be significant. Since inception, our losses from operations and working capital requirements have been satisfied through the deferral of payment for services performed by our founders and related parties discussed more fully below.
17 |
We have sustained operating losses since our operations began. At March 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $22,754,103. The Company cannot predict how long it will continue to incur further losses or whether it will ever become profitable as this is dependent upon the reduction of certain expenses and success in obtaining more project contracts, among other things. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
We have satisfied our cash and working capital requirements in the three months ended March 31, 2022, through the sale of common stock.

We used $598,244 of cash in our operating activities in 2022 compared to $338,311 used in 2021. The increase in cash used of $259,933 includes a net loss of $358,710, offset by non-cash expenses of $90,884 principally related to amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs of $63,296, depreciation expense of $873, and common stock issued for services of $88,600, offset by a change in fair value of derivative liability of $243,653, as well as cash used in working capital items in the amount of $148,650 principally related to an increase in inventory of $256,999, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $30,003, and a decrease in due to officers of $4,558, offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $142,910.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
The Company used $34,525 in cash from financing activities to purchase property and equipment.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
We received $426,000 (2022) and $434,021 (2021) in cash provided from financing activities. The net decrease of $8,021 is due primarily to a $369,500 decrease in financing through issuance of convertible loans, a $54,500 increase in payments of convertible loans payable, and a $24,000 decrease due to costs associated entering the equity line of credit, offset by an increase of $439,979 from proceeds from the sale of stock and subscriptions.
Financial Position
Total Assets – At March 31, 2022 the Company had $1,267,052 representing $412,051 in cash, $55,112 in accounts receivable, $445,977 in inventory, $277,534 in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $37,392 in property and equipment, and $38,986 in operating lease right-of-use asset.
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We expect to generate more revenues which should, grow in time and lead to a positive cash flow. In the near future, we expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through lines of credit, convertible loans and/or further issuances of other securities in sufficient quantities that we will be able to meet our working capital requirement from these possible sources. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt will result in dilution to our current shareholders.
We seek to focus on three main aspects of the water and energy business: (1) generation, (2) supply, and (3) maintenance. We seek to assist private companies, government entities and NGO’s to build profitable and sustainable supplies/generation capabilities of water and energy as required, by selling them the required technology or technical service to enhance their productivity/operability. With its outsourced technical arm and its commission-based global network of vendors, the Company expects to create sustainable added value to each project it takes on while generating revenue from its engineering and technical consultancy services, project management, sale of our patent filed Self Sufficient Power Supply Atmosphere Water Generation Systems (eAWGs) Solar Energy Generation Systems and Energy Management Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and revenues from the licensed innovated technologies.
18 |
Through our BlueTech Alliance for Water Generation established in December 2020, we have state of the art technology partners, technology transfer agreements, and technology representation agreements in place relating to aspects of renewable energy and water supply. These unique key relationships offer important selling features and capabilities that differentiated EAWD from its competitors.
The Company plans to generate revenue from its engineering and technical consultancy services, project management, sale of our Patent filed Self Sufficient Power Supply Atmosphere Water Generation Systems (eAWGs), Solar Energy Generation Systems, and Energy Management Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and revenues from the licensed innovated technologies.
MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
Employment Agreements
The Company entered into employment agreements with each of Mr. Hofmeier, its President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and Ms. Velazquez, its Chief Operating Officer and Vice-Chairman (together, the “Employment Agreements”), effective January 1, 2012. Under the Employment Agreements, the Company agreed to pay each of Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez an annual base salary of $125,000 during the first year and $150,000 during the second year and forward. Any increase to the annual base salary after the second year is subject to approval by the company’s Board of Directors. Each Employment Agreement has an initial term of ten (10) years and is automatically renewed for successive one-year terms unless either party delivers timely notice of its intention not to renew. The Company also entered into employment agreement with 4 other employees, effective on the 3rd quarter of 2021.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
GOING CONCERN
During the year ended December 31, 2021, pursuant to an equipment sale agreement, the Company recognized revenue of $550,000 for a sale of equipment, along with $350,000 for the cost of construction, earning $200,000 gross profit. The next operational step to accomplish is to achieve sufficient sales volume to yield positive a net income. Due to the timing of the project build out, the Company has not currently recorded any revenue and consequently has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $22,754,103 at March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Corporation incurred net losses of $358,710. The Company also had a working capital of $70,491 at March 31, 2022.
The Company’s ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.
At the filling date of this report, management plans to conclude the sales in Germany and in other regions of the world further the received approved proposals, which would bring a growing revenue. Managements plans to expand the sales operations by greater market penetration of the Agriculture, Industrial and Community development market with its water and energy generation, innovative solution, this to make sales operations to continue to expand. Management also plans to raise additional funds during 2022; through the issuance of equity securities and from deposits related to purchases orders on proposals pending customer acceptance as well, if necessary, loans from management and third-party lender. Management also plans to defer expenses by centralizing assembling, logistic and administration operations expenses. By doing so, the company would identify a bigger place to use as self-sufficient energy supply warehouse to be able to centralize the storage of supplies, while securing its inventory, this would reduce the costs of the assembling and the administrative operations, the company would acquire its own electrical trucks as well, to reduce cost of transportation of supplies.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

ADDRESSING CHALLENGES POST-COVID-19
COVID-19 is an incomparable global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry and has caused the worst global economic contraction of the past 80 years (IMF). The concerted global efforts achieved the development of vaccines that have helped to reduce a person´s risk of contracting the virus. However, the current war in Ukraine lead us as well to considering the changes in consumer behavior and demand, purchasing patterns, re-routing of the supply chain, dynamics of current market forces, and the significant interventions of governments; Disruptive activities could include the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes, restrictions on the export or shipment of our products, significant cutback of ocean container delivery from Germany, business closures in impacted areas, and restrictions on our employees’ and consultants’ ability to travel and to meet with customers. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, which still uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the current conflict as well as virus variants and the actions to contain it or treat its impact, among others. COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine could also continue to result in social, economic and labor instability in the countries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate.
If workers at one or more of our offices or the offices of our suppliers or manufacturers become ill or are quarantined and in either or both events are therefore unable to work, our operations could be subject to disruption. Further, if our manufacturers become unable to obtain necessary raw materials or components, we may incur higher supply costs or our manufacturers may be required to reduce production levels, either of which may negatively affect our financial condition or results of operations.
In light of these challenges, the Company is focusing its efforts on supporting key areas of our business that will help us to stabilize in the new environment and strategize for what comes next. Those key areas are: crisis and management response, workforce, operation and supply chain, finance and liquidity, tax, trade and regulatory, as well as strategy and brand.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our critical accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 to the condensed financial statements.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements as discussed in Note 3 to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the information under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) as of December 31, 2021. This evaluation was carried out by our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Finance Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Finance Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses, which have caused management to conclude that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective:
· | Inadequate segregation of duties, due to lack of human resources | |
· | Limited level of multiple reviews among those tasked with preparing the financial statements, | |
· | Lack of a more formal internal control environment. |
20 |
Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We intend to implement changes to strengthen our internal controls in addition to the enhanced controls discussed above. We are in the process of implementing a remediation plan for the identified material weaknesses and we expect that work on the plan will continue throughout 2022, as financial resources permit. Specifically, to address the material weaknesses arising from insufficient accounting personnel, the Company plans to hire a full-time Chief Financial Officer and has secured the services of additional accounting personnel on a consulting basis which begins to address segregation of duties. The Company is currently formalizing its policies and procedures in writing and to improve the integration of its financial reporting system into non accounting departments. Where appropriate, the Company is receiving advice and assistance from third-party experts as it implements and refines its remediation plan.
Additional measures may be necessary, and the measures we expect to take to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that such material weakness or other material weaknesses would not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Management’s conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective means that if a fraud or material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements were to occur; there is a reasonable possibility that they will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. 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 the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
