(b) Basis of Preparation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make that information not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Form 10 filed with the SEC on March 15, 2023. Accordingly, significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been omitted since such items are disclosed therein.

The results of operations for this interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any future period.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and expects to continue to incur losses as we advance our tests and development of technologies. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $36.68 million and net working capital of -$0.529 million at September 30, 2023

ts are issued.

The Company has incurred significant losses since inception and expects to continue to incur losses as we advance our tests and development of technologies. The Compan

. Although the Company historically has sold equity for raising working capital from a number of investor sources, on an as and when needed basis, there is no assurance that any additional equity offerings, debt financings, or other non-dilutive third-party funding will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The above conditions give rise to a material uncertainty which may cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Notwithstanding the above, management of the Company considers it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis after having regard to the Company being awarded a 10+year contract with Samancor in 2019 and having completed a number of commercial work orders for its services with Sasol as the parties continue to work on pre-contract trials.

The Company expects that it may continue to raise working capital through equity placements until such time the Company has reached a market point where cash flows will be realized through its commercial and operational activities.

Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realize its assets and liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments, which could be necessary, should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business, and at amounts different from those reflected in the financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The financial statements have been consolidated with the parent company and all inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized directly in equity attributable to the parent.

Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the consolidated entity.

Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

(b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company has only used estimates for useful lives for depreciation, deferred income tax assets and liabilities and relatively minor accruals when they are not in possession of actual invoices after the balance date. The Company accounts for all its foreign subsidiaries on the same basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue in EESTech currently relates to the ongoing R&D process with Sasol as EESTech has taken on testing of excess fine coal agglomeration.

Revenues are recognized when the control of the promised goods and services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The Company applies the five following steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfils its obligations under each of its arrangements:

	●	Identify the contract with the customer,

	●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract,

	●	Determine the transaction price,

	●	Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and

	●	Recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company estimates the transaction price, including variable consideration, at the commencement of the contract and recognizes revenue over the contract term, rather than at a point in time.

(d) Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) and other similar taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognized as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable of payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

(e) Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash includes short-term investments that are readily convertible into cash with original maturities of three months or less.

(f) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is three to seven years. The Company has no equipment under capital lease.

(g) Borrowings

Loans and borrowings (including to related parties) are initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs.

(h) Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that Australia is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(i) Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share is calculated pursuant to the two-class method as defined in FASB ASC Topic No. 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”), which specifies that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities and should be included in the computation of loss per share pursuant to the two-class method.

Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method.

Basic and diluted net loss attributable to common holders per share are presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities as the convertible preferred stock are considered participating securities. The Company’s participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses. As such, the net loss was attributed entirely to common stockholders. Accordingly, for the nine months ended September 30 2023 and 2022, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding.

Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

Warrants outstanding at September 30, 2023	Number of shares warrants will convert to
1,351,785	1,351,785

(j) Non-Controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests (“NCI”) are measured initially at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. Changes in the Company’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

(k) Segment Information

FASB ASC Topic No. 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in their annual consolidated financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. ASC 280 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company’s business segment is based on the organization’s structure used by the chief operating decision maker for making operating and investment decisions and for assessing performance.

The Company is organized as a single operating segment, whereby its chief operating decision maker assess the performance of and allocates resources to the business as a whole.

(l) Share capital

The Company records proceeds from share issuances net of issuance costs. Par value is recorded at its rate of 0.001 per share with the remaining proceeds net of issuance costs being recorded as additional paid in capital.

The Company has issued freestanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock. The warrants are recorded as equity instruments at the grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and are not subject to revaluation at each balance sheet date.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The Company records compensation expense related to stock options issue to non-employees, including consultants based on the fair value of the stock options calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model over the service performance period as the equity instruments vest. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, which determining the fair value of share-based awards, including the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The Company calculates the fair value of options granted by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected Volatility – The Company estimated volatility for option grants by evaluating the average historical volatility of a peer group of companies for the period immediately preceding the option grant for a term that is approximately equal to the options’ expected term.

Expected Term – The expected term of the Company’s options represents the period that the stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The Company has elected to use the midpoint of the stock options vesting term and contractual expiration period to compute the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient historical information to develop reasonable expectations about the future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior.

Risk-Free Interest Rate – the risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield currently available on US Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term that is equal to the options’ expected term at the grant date.

Dividend Yield - The Company has not declared or paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends. As such, the dividend yield has been estimated to be zero.

(m) Fair value of financial instruments

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The three-tier fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:

	●	Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and have the highest priority.

	●	Level 2 valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active.

	●	Level 3 valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity.

(n) Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Group is United State Dollars. The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operations is Australian Dollars. The Company translates the foreign currency financial statements of its foreign operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by translating balance sheet accounts at the appropriate historical or current exchange rate on the balance sheet date and the income statement accounts using the prevailing exchange rates at the transaction date. Translation gains and losses are recorded in stockholders’ equity and realized gains and losses are reflected in operations. The translation exchange gain for the Nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, was $1,021 and the translation exchange loss for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $3,972.

(o) Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company’s research and development expenses consist primarily of expenditures for operations, studies, compensation and consulting costs.

(p) Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in the balance sheet. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. For SEC Filers (GAAP definition), excluding smaller reporting companies (SRCs) as defined by the SEC, the ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities including smaller reporting companies, as amended by ASU 2019-10, the ASUs are effect for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Earlier application is permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not have any leases so there was no impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption on 1 January 2023..

(q) Accounting Standards Not Yet Implemented

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this ASU provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, that extends the period of time preparers can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance. To ensure the relief in Topic 848 covers the period of time during which a significant number of modifications may take place, the ASU defers the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. This ASU clarifies the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, when measuring the fair value of an equity security and introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including the interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. This amendment should be applied prospectively with any adjustments from the adoption of the amendments recognized in earnings and disclosed on the date of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50). This ASU enhances the transparency of supplier finance programs. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. This amendment should be applied retrospectively to each period in which a balance sheet is presented, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which should be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangement, which addresses the accounting by private companies and certain not-for-profit entities (NFPs) for common control leases and amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities. This ASU offers: 1) private companies, as well as not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification (Issue 1) and 2) amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities (Issue 2). The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statement that have not yet been made available. The Company does not have any leases so expects there will be no impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption from 1 January 2024.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability, and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including the interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact the adoption may have on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, requires credit losses on most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model. Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. The ASU also replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”), should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above. Further, the ASU made certain targeted amendments to the existing impairment model for AFS debt securities. For an AFS debt security for which there is neither an intent nor a more-likely-than-not requirement to sell, an entity will record credit losses as an allowance rather than a write-down of the amortized cost basis.

Management is still in the process of assessing the impact of ASU 2016-13. However, management believes that the adoption of the standard would not result in a material adjustment as the Company only has one customer, Sasol, with whom the company has recognized a contractual liability after receiving payment in advance. Other receivables are due from related parties for which the company deems that there are no related credit risks.

Warrants

The Company has historically issued warrants to purchase 1,737,499 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $0.035 per share and a term of seven years. As at September 30, 2023, 1,351,785 of these warrants are outstanding. The warrants were recorded to additional paid-in capital.

The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing method, with the following assumptions:

8. INCOME TAXES

The components of net deferred taxes consisted of the following at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

	SEPTEMBER 30, 2023			DECEMBER 31, 2022
	$’000			$’000

Total deferred tax assets		1			14
Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation		(1	)		(14	)
Net deferred tax assets		—			—

The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance increased by $0.10 million during the period ended September 30, 2023 and decreased by $0.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Company utilizes ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. At September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, valuation allowances for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset were established due to the uncertainties as to the amount of the taxable income that would be generated in future years.

Reconciliation of the differences between the statutory tax rate and the effective income tax rate is as follows:

	SEPTEMBER 30, 2023			DECEMBER 31, 2022

Statutory federal tax (benefit) rate		(21.00	)%		(21.00	)%
Statutory foreign tax (benefit) rate		(25.00	)%		(25.00	)%

Weighted average effective tax rate		(23.00	)%		(23.00	)%

Valuation allowance		23.00	%		23.00	%

Effective income tax rate		0.00	%		0.00	%

The Company had available approximately $35.8M (September 2023) and $35.2M (December 2022) of unused net operating loss carryforwards that may be applied against future taxable income. Net operating loss carryforwards that arose in the tax year 2002 and 2001 expired in 2023 and 2022, respectively, for Federal purposes.

The future utilization of the Company’s NOL and tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to a substantial annual limitation as a result of changes in ownership by stockholders that hold 5% or more of the Company’s common stock. An assessment of such ownership changes under Section 382 was not completed through December 31, 2022. To the extent that an assessment is completed in the future, the Company’s ability to utilize tax attributes could be restricted on a year-by-year basis and certain attributes could expire before they are utilized. The Company will examine the impact of any potential ownership changes in the future.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the nation. The Company is not currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service or other similar state and local authorities. All tax years remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

9. REVENUE

Revenue was first recorded by EESTech in the third quarter of FY2021. Revenue to date relates to the ongoing R&D process with Sasol where EESTech has taken on testing of excess fine coal agglomeration. As at 31 December 2021, revenue was immaterial but it increased throughout FY2022 with the ongoing completion of the contract to complete the testing process and a subsequent purchase order raised, to deliver an Engineering Study, in July 2022 for $417,414. A further invoice has since been raised in February 2023 for $35,500 for additional supplemental work on the Engineering Study.

The first contract with Sasol was for the testing of excess fine coal agglomeration processes. Revenue for this performance obligation is recognized over time. The contract is billed based on completion of 3 stages of the fine coal agglomeration. As the testing was performed over time and without a fixed budget, revenue was recognized for the 3 stages of the contract in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, on the basis that the Company has a right to consideration from the customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date.

The 2 stages are as follows:

	1)	Evaluation of agglomerates to confirm suitability for gasification – EESTech will be provided with 2 tonnes of fine coal by Sasol for test work from which the Company must produce agglomerates meeting Sasol’s expectations along with providing a basic analysis of the agglomerated material. The Company has fulfilled their requirements of this stage during FY2021 and has recognized revenue related to this performance obligation.

	2)	A proposal from EESTech on the business model – If stage 1 produces suitable agglomerates which pass Sasol’s testing, EESTech will be required to develop a full proposal on a 200 kilo tonnes per annum scale project including a detailed business model. The Company has provided the proposal which Sasol has deemed appropriate and thus fulfilled their requirements of this performance obligation and recognized the corresponding revenue during FY2021.

	3)	Full scale demonstration in a commercial gasifier – Stage 3 entails EESTech to manufacture about 1,000 tonnes of agglomerates to enable a commercial scale demonstration. As at December 31, 2021, this stage had not yet been completed by the Company and hence, Sasol had not been invoiced for payment at year-end. However, the requirements of this stage were satisfied subsequent to year-end and has therefore been received and recognized as revenue in March 2022.

The second contract requires the delivery of an engineering study into the process of fine coal agglomeration. For this 2 phase rollout, revenue was recognized over time, using an input method to recognize revenue on the basis of the Company’s inputs to the satisfaction of the performance obligation relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation. The 2 phases are as follows:

	1)	A comprehensive conceptual engineering design study for Phase 1 of the two-Phase project rollout. Phase 1 comprising the installation of a fine coal briquetting train with a processing capacity of approximately 580ktpa at Sasol’s East facility and then Phase 2 of a similar sized extrusion train at Sasol’s West facility. During FY2022, EESTech has received three payments, each of $83,483 towards the completion of the conceptual engineering design study of Phase 1, with a fourth payment of $83,483 invoiced and received in the March 2023 quarter.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The final scope of services in phase 2 is the delivery of the Engineering Study as the final output. Additional works done in 2023 saw an additional billing of $35,500 in February 2023. The final invoice for the last tranche of $83,483 was issued in March 2023 and subsequently settled in April 2023 to fund the final completion of the Engineering Study. No revenue was recognized as the Engineering Study is yet to be completed and handed over for sign-off. As such, a corresponding contract liability was recognized in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 for the advance payment received from Sasol amounting to $83,483.

Payment for each invoice is typically due 7 days from the date of invoice. There are no warranties or rights of return under this contract.

Costs relating to the completion of the contract are recognized as incurred in line with each stage/phase. Costs are minimal and mainly relate to lab hire and small lab expenses. Larger laboratory expenses have been capitalized and are being depreciated in line with the depreciation policy.

The breakdown of opening and closing revenue for the year from contracts is noted below:

	Sasol ($)
Opening balance of Contract Revenue at 1 January 2022	14,130
New Contracts	456,914
Revenue recognized on Contracts for performance obligations satisfied	(296,229)
Difference arising on translation of foreign currency	(7,849)

12. ISSUANCE OF SHARES TO EXTINGUISH DEBT

The Company, on occasion, uses shares to extinguish debt. This can be in the form of an invoice or services received. Where an invoice has been received, the shares are valued at the quoted market value on the day of settlement. Any difference between the value of the shares and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt is recognized in income of the period of extinguishment as losses or gains. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, no such shares were issued so no gain or loss was recognized. For the year ended December 31, 2022, a gain of $1,347 has been recognized.

Where shares are issued for services rendered, the Black-Scholes method of valuation is applied and the expense is straight lined over the period of service received. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock for the extinguishment of debt (2022: Company issued 91,250 shares of common stock for the extinguishment of $2,281 of debt).

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases

The Company leases its corporate offices under a month-to-month agreement, and under an operating lease that is renewable annually and expires in December 2023. Rent expense for office space amounted to approximately $660 for both nine-months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. To date, the Company has no material pending legal proceedings.

Overview

EESTech promotes economically and environmentally sustainable technologies to the world’s mining and minerals processing industries. EESTech’s waste management solutions enable the recycling of mine site waste and process slag to recover targeted materials of value. EESTech’s mineral processing capabilities reduce cost, increase productivity, reduce energy requirements, eliminate polluting leachates, transform hazardous waste liabilities into products of value with zero-waste outcomes and reduce the carbon footprint of mineral resource processing. EESTech intends to generate its income from the sale of all recovered targeted materials being sold back to the waste owner. Post process tailing are transformed into inert high grade sand products 100% owned by EESTech. Trademarked as ThermaSand and ThermaPrills, both products will be sold into high volume downstream markets.

Technologies and waste management Solutions offerings

Commercial advancement of EESTech’s remediation and reclamation capabilities is being underwritten by a self-performing approach whereby the Company demonstrating confidence in its service and technology offerings carries responsibility for project capital funding. Providing clients with low-risk waste management solutions on the basis that EESTech is only paid on performance.

EESTech initial focus will be on the deployment of the following Technology Solutions:

	●	*Reclamation Resource Recovery Process (R3 Process)*: An efficient comminution process that maximizes the yield potential of targeted material from the recycling of mine site waste and process slag.

	●	*Waste Resource Reclamation*: Optimizing the recovery of materials of value from mine site waste and process slag.

●

	●	*Waste to Energy Platforms*: 1, 3 and 6MW power generation from waste materials such as low grade/ discard coal, methane run off, agricultural and forestry waste.

●

Inductosmelt Reduction Furnace: Increasing the efficiencies of primary smelting, melt/smelt reclaimed non-conductive materials including metal oxides into metal/alloy.

The Company has been working to secure contracts with major global mining entities. Prior to August 2021, no revenue had been recorded within EESTech, Inc. In February 2019, South Africa’s Samancor Chrome Limited, one of the world’s largest integrated ferro-chrome (FeCr) producers awarded EESTech an exclusive ten-year agreement, with a five-year extension option, granting EESTech the reclamation rights to the FeCr process slag located at Samancor’s Ferrometals process facility in Emalahleni, South Africa. Project start was delayed due to the impact of the covid virus, with the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) being granted in October of 2021 and approvals were received January of 2022. An 18-month project establishment period is required before project cashflows are generated. In August 2021, a trial has begun with Sasol for which EESTech Inc is being paid. While this trial was extended in July 2022, revenue at this stage is minimal and as such, losses are still being recorded.

The Company has been in the developmental stage since its inception.

Nine Months Ended 30 September 2023 compared to Nine Months Ended 30 September 2022

Net Loss. Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $970,653 and $875,341 respectively. There was a decrease in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $19,712 compared with the same period last year due to the pending delivery of the engineering study to Sasol. The trial started in the third quarter of FY21 with activity on the trial increasing throughout FY22 and into FY23 with the ongoing completion of the testing process. Operating expenses likewise increased by $75,600 for the nine months ended September 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

General Administrative Expenses. Our general administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $1,089,078 and $1,013,478 respectively. An increase of $75,600 or 7%. The increase is primarily attributable to the increase in accounting fees by $89,488 (2023: $149,903; 2022: 60,445). This increase was partially offset by savings on legal fees by $16,979.

Three Months Ended 30 September 2023 compared to Three Months Ended 30 September 2022

Net Loss. Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $336,606 and $421,647, respectively. There was no revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023 since the engineering study is yet to be handed over because there are several design variations that need to be finalized and agreed with Sasol.

General Administrative Expenses. Our general administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $336,606 and $505,907, respectively. A decrease of $169,301 or 33%. The decrease is primarily due to legal fees which were $11,587 and $165,175 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively (decreased by $153,588). There was also a one-time expense related to patent amounting to $10,323 in 2022.

All of this is related to the issuance of common stock except for the loan proceeds from a shareholder amounting to $10,093 in 2023 and loan repayment of $21,768 to shareholder in 2022.

Project Financing

The Company anticipates funding the Samancor project and any future Sasol project through both debt and issuance of equity capital. The Company intends to establish majority-owned special purpose South African registered companies for each project that should facilitate these project specific funding arrangements.

The Company anticipates that full commissioning of the planned waste facility for the Samancor project will cost approximately $50 million, of which $22 million is anticipated to be expended in the initial twelve months upon obtaining sufficient financing. The project costs are budgeted to include approximately: $16 million for process equipment; $11 million for construction, and site infrastructure and auxiliary equipment; $5 million for rail load out infrastructure; $6 million for electrical instrumentation and automation and fit out; $5 million for site development and project management and engineering; and $7 million for working capital. The Company currently is in discussions with various investment sources and partners to finance the Samancor project. Although there can no assurance as to the financing availability or composition, the Company currently anticipates (a) $35 million of the project to be sourced through debt financing with terms of repayment based in part upon cash flows from the facility upon its completion, and (b) $15 million to be sourced from one or more project partners, through which a locally-owned businesses in South Africa will provide such financing in exchange for entering into service agreements related to the construction or operation of the facility. To the extent that the Company is unable to obtain the full $50 million as planned, the Company will evaluate constructing a facility on a smaller scale based upon a smaller amount of financing. Upon completion and operation of a smaller facility, the Company expects that it will be able to demonstrate performance and generate cash flows to expand the facility within the 10-year term of the Samancor agreement.

The Company currently intends to deploy its IRF technology upon completion of the Samancor project facility. The Company expects that the IRF deployment will be funded through positive cash flows generated from the reclamation and sale of chrome concentrate from Samancor’s slag dumps. Additional deployments of the Company’s IRF technology will be funded by additional potential customer projects in the future.

The Company’s preliminary work for Sasol has been financed directly by Sasol to date. The amount and source of financing for any future project for Sasol will depend on the nature and scope of any related commercial agreement with Sasol.

The Company also believes its capital requirements will be met through:

● cash flows generated from the provision of engineering services sought by waste owners to engineer environmental solutions to meet their ESG objectives;

● first round capital contributions from project operators seeking to secure contracts and working interest in these projects;

● prepaid offtakes for the reclaimed products the Company will produce from these projects; and

● private investments in the Company.

In addition, the Company intends to offer its services through these two financing models:

● A tolling model, whereby the Company will generate cash flow on a per tonne basis of material processed. This model requires an upfront establishment fee from the client, offset against tolling fees over the contract life of the project.

● A zero-cost ownership model, whereby the Company pays no cost to take ownership of waste to be processed, then generates products of value for resale back to the customer or sale to downstream markets. In this model, the Company will underwrite capital requirement for establishing the process facility, with these capital requirements secured against off-take agreements for products produced.

However, both models will only be initiated when contract assured cash flows are confirmed..

Critical Accounting Policies

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

A “critical accounting policy” is one that is both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that requires management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments. Such judgments are often the result of a need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We have identified the following accounting policies as critical:

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employees, consultants and third parties are required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employees, consultants and third parties’ services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

The fair value of these stock-based compensation and warrants is measured at grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. This requires management to make estimates regarding the inputs for option pricing models, such as the expected life of the option, the volatility of our common stock price, the vesting period of the option and the risk-free interest rate are used. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates are considered for each new grant of stock options or warrants.

Share-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period during which the options vest, with a corresponding increase in equity.

Non-Controlling Interests

Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting 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.

Currently we are not a party to any legal proceedings. However, we could become subject to claims and legal proceedings that may arise out of the normal course of business in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

An investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock, you should consider the risks described below in addition to the cautionary statements and risks described elsewhere and the other information in this report and in our other subsequent filings with the SEC. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or currently deemed immaterial by us, may also impair our operations. If any such risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected and our ability to implement our growth plans could be adversely affected.

Risks Related to our Business and Operations

We have incurred significant net operating losses since our inception and anticipate that we will incur continued losses for the foreseeable future.

We had an accumulated deficit of $35.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and $36.7 million as of September 30, 2023, and we will continue to incur significant expenses in the foreseeable future related to the development and commercialization of our business plan. As a result, we will be sustaining substantial operating and net losses, and it is possible that we will never be able to sustain or develop the revenue levels necessary to attain profitability.

Our financial position creates doubt as to whether we will continue as a going concern.

We first generated revenue in 2021 but these revenues were minimal. In 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, we generated additional revenue from the step up in the trials but it was still minimal overall. Our financial position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and we may need to raise additional funds in order to continue to conduct our business. The Company historically has sold equity to raise working capital from a number of investor sources, on an as and when needed basis. There can be no assurances that we will be able to achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain funding from additional financing through private placements or other financing necessary to support our working capital requirements. If we are unable to secure sufficient capital to fund our operating activities, we may be forced to delay the completion of, or significantly reduce the scope of, our business plan.

If we are unable to construct a waste facility for Samancor, our business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.

Our success is dependent, in part, upon our project to recycle process slag waste for Samancor. Delivering the terms under the 10-year agreement we entered into in 2019 with Samancor currently represents our largest commercial opportunity and the primary focus of our business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain project financing for or will complete the construction of a waste facility for Samancor, or that such financing or construction will be achieved in a timely manner or at a sufficient size. If we are unable to execute on the Samancor project, and if we are unable to generate revenues from other customers or through our technologies under current or future development, our business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.

Some of our technologies are not, and may not become, commercially operated in the marketplace.

The Company’s technologies and process capabilities have not been commercially operated in the marketplace. We have established design capability and validated operational characteristics through laboratory testing, process trials and the operation of pilot plants. In addition, while our process capabilities are in an advanced stage of commercialization and are capable of “stand alone” operations, they have not been fully integrated with other technologies developed by the Company. In each of the technologies, the components are generally not unique in structure and operation. The uniqueness is in the formulation, process configurations and computerized operating control systems. There can be no assurance that we will be able to integrate these technologies and market them successfully as a package to generate revenues.

Our plan requires technological expertise to develop and to oversee the operations our technologies and process capabilities.

Although our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technologies Officer, engineering consultants and Advisory Board members are conversant with the Company’s technologies and process capabilities, we currently have no plans to develop a deployment or operating team. We will use external EPC and OM contractors with technical expertise to provide us with developmental and operations services. If we are unable to locate and utilize contractors and service providers, we may be unable to develop and operate our existing technologies and may be unable to develop other technologies in the future.

Due to the period that we expect it will take to deploy our products, we will require significant capital to sustain us until we are able to market our products.

We expect that once we initiate the deployment of our products, it will take approximately 18 to 24 months to bring our products to market. We anticipate that we will receive minimal if any revenues during this period, which will place significant pressure on funding and other supply considerations. While we have budgeted for what we believe to be the required expenses and lead time to bring our products to market, no assurances can be given for adequate funding during this period. If we are delayed in obtaining adequate funding, we may be delayed in bringing our products to market.

We depend on the services of key personnel and the loss of any of these personnel could disrupt our operations.

We do not have any full-time employees. Our officers and all other support persons perform services for us pursuant to consulting arrangements. We do not maintain “key-man” life insurance policy on our executive officers. The unexpected loss of the services of any of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our operations.

We will be dependent on suppliers and manufacturers when we bring our technologies to market.

We currently do not possess or intend to develop the capability to undertake the manufacture and fabrication of our technologies when they are ready to be brought to market. We are developing relationships with key suppliers and manufacturers able to meet our requirements for providing such services. The manufacture and fabrication of our technologies will require exacting standards. If we are unable to develop these relationships, we may be unable to produce any products. In addition, if the suppliers and manufacturers are unable to meet the standards that our products require, we may experience delays in bringing our product to market. Unless and until we develop a team that will address quality control issuers, we will be dependent on third parties to produce our technologies.

If we are unable to adapt our technologies to the changing demands of the marketplace, our products may become obsolete.

Changes in technology, competitively imposed process standards and regulatory requirements influence the demand for our products and services. To grow and remain competitive, we need to anticipate changes in technological and regulatory standards. We need to introduce new and enhanced products on a timely basis. We may not achieve these goals and some of our products may become obsolete. New products often face lack of market acceptance, development delays or operational failure. Stricter governmental regulations also may affect acceptance of new products. If our products are unable to gain market acceptance, our operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We may face competition from other companies marketing similar technologies.

There may be other companies that are currently developing technologies that are similar to the ones that we are developing. If such competitors are able to bring their products to market sooner than we are able, there may be less of a market for our products. In addition, once a market exists for technologies such as ours, we expect that additional competitors will enter the industry to attempt to capture the growth potential in the market. If competitors are able to provide a better product or adapt the technologies more quickly than we are able to, we may be unable to obtain or maintain market share. Some of our current and future competitors may be larger and better funded than we are. If our competitors are more successful than we are at developing uses for our technologies, our ability to generate revenues may be adversely affected.

We will be subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where our products are used and we may be subject to significant liability if we are unable to comply with such laws and regulations.

Environmental laws and regulations require us to meet certain standards and may impose liability if we do not meet them. Environmental laws and regulations and their interpretations change. We must comply with any new standards and requirements, even when they require us to clean up environmental conditions that were not illegal when the conditions were created. The liabilities and risks imposed on our customers by environmental laws may adversely impact demand for some of our products or services or impose greater liabilities and risks on us, which could also have an adverse effect on our competitive and financial position.

Our plan to operate internationally subjects us to increased risks that could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Although we intend to market our technologies internationally, we have limited experience with operations and our ability to manage our business and conduct our operations internationally. Doing so requires considerable management attention and resources and is subject to a number of risks, including the following:

	●	challenges caused by distance, language, and cultural differences;

	●	longer payment cycles;

	●	currency exchange rate fluctuations;

	●	political and economic instability; and

●

higher costs associated with doing business internationally.

In addition, compliance with complex foreign laws and regulations that may apply to our international operations increases our cost of doing business in international jurisdictions. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines, criminal sanctions against us, our officers, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and damage to our reputation. Any such violation could result in prohibitions on our ability to offer our products and services to one or more countries, and could also materially damage our international expansion efforts, our business and our operating results.

If currency exchange rates fluctuate substantially in the future, our operating results, which are reported in U.S. dollars, could be adversely affected.

We present our financial statements in U.S. Dollar (“US$”). However, a significant portion of our expenses and revenue are and will be denominated in non-US$ currencies, in particular the Australian dollar (“A$”). As a result, there is the potential that our financial results will be exposed to movements of the US$ against these foreign currencies. The risk may be increased where the foreign currency against the US$ becomes more volatile, for example, due to economic, political factors, or significant events that may occur in the jurisdictions of those foreign currencies.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, it could reduce the value of our products and services.

Our patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights are important assets for us. Various events outside of our control may pose a threat to our intellectual property rights as well as to our products and services. For example, effective intellectual property protection may not be available in every country in which our products are used. However, in the key geographical regions of South African, Australasian, North American and European markets, the Company already has patent applications in place. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm our business or our ability to compete. Also, protecting our intellectual property rights is costly and time consuming. Any increase in the unauthorized use of our intellectual property could make it more expensive to do business and harm our operating results.

We may be subject to intellectual property rights claims, which are costly to defend, could require us to pay damages and could limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future.

Technology companies frequently own large numbers of patents and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. Our technologies may not be able to withstand any third-party claims and, regardless of the merits of the claim, intellectual property claims are often time-consuming and expensive to litigate or settle. In addition, to the extent claims against us are successful, we may have to pay substantial monetary damages or discontinue use of our technologies that are found to be in violation of another party’s rights. We also may have to seek a license to continue such practices, which may significantly increase our operating expenses.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The market for our common stock may be limited, and our common stock price may fluctuate significantly.

Although shares of our common stock currently trade on the Pink Limited Information Tier of the OTC Markets, trading has been limited and sporadic. A more active trading market may not develop or be sustained upon our uplisting to the OTCBB or otherwise in the future. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly as a result of:

	●	our operating and financial performance and prospects;

	●	quarterly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as net income per share;

●

changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts about us our industry;

	●	liquidity and registering our common stock for public resale;

	●	sales of our common stock by our stockholders;

	●	increases in our cost of capital;

	●	changes in market valuations of similar companies;

	●	additions or departures of key management personnel; and

●

actions by our stockholders;

The trading price of our common stock also may be subject to volatility due to general market conditions unrelated to the operating performance of the Company. Any of these fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Because our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, broker-dealers may experience difficulty in completing customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.

Our common stock currently is subject to the penny stock rules. A penny stock generally is any equity security, not listed on a national exchange, with a price of less than $5.00, subject to certain exceptions, that is offered by a company with limited revenues and assets. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer: to deliver on any solicited transactions a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC; to provide the customer with a current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account; to make a special written determination that the penny stock is suitable investment for the purchaser; and to receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. The disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for the stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Because our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, investors may find it more difficult to sell their securities, and the market liquidity for our securities could be severely and adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and the ability of stockholders to sell our common stock in any secondary market.

Our directors and executive officers own a substantial portion of our common stock, and their interests may conflict with yours.

As of November 14, 2023, our directors and executive officers beneficially owned 15.7% of our outstanding common stock. No other person to our knowledge holds more than 5% beneficial ownership in our common stock. Accordingly, our directors and executive officers may be in a position to exercise substantial influence over the Company’s affairs. We cannot assure you that the interests of our directors and executive officers will always align with the interests of other holders of our common stock.

There may be difficulty in enforcing judgments and effecting service of process on directors and officers that are not citizens of the United States.

Although the Company is incorporated in the United States (Delaware), certain of our directors and officers reside outside of the United States and some or all of the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, it may not be possible for stockholders to collect or to enforce judgments or liabilities against them under U.S. securities laws. Moreover, it may not be possible for stockholders to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons. Generally, original actions to enforce liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws may not be brought in an Australian or other foreign court. Such actions must be brought in a court in the United States with applicable jurisdiction. Persons obtaining judgments against us in U.S. courts, including judgments obtained under U.S. federal securities laws, then may need to bring an application in a court in the country where non-U.S. directors and officers are located to enforce such judgments.

Our by-laws designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, agents or stockholders.

Our by-laws provide that, subject to limited exceptions, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; any action asserting a claim against us arising under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation or our by-laws; and any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

Our by-laws also provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the United States federal securities laws, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Investors cannot waive our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

These exclusive forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other agent of the Company, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other agents. If a court were to find these exclusive forum provisions in our by-laws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur further significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We are an “emerging growth company,” and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We qualify as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and plan to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to: being permitted to have only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations disclosure; an exemption from compliance with the management’s assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation arrangements in our periodic reports, registration statements and proxy statements; and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved by stockholders. In addition, the JOBS Act permits emerging growth companies to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We intend to take advantage of the exemptions described above. As a result, the information we provide will be different than the information that is available with respect to other public companies. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on these exemptions. In addition, there may be an increased risk, or perceived increased risk, of material weaknesses or other deficiencies in our internal controls or that they may go undetected. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of our status as an emerging growth company, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may be more volatile.

We will incur increased costs and will be subject to additional regulations and requirements as a public company, which will lower our profits and may make it more difficult to run our business.

As a newly public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses including costs associated with public company reporting requirements. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These laws and regulations also could make it more difficult or costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the Board of Directors or as our executive officers of the Company. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a public company, we could be subject to fines, sanctions and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the near future. The payment of dividends, if any, will be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and our general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of the Board of Directors. We presently intend to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and accordingly, the Board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2023

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Principles of Consolidation

Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

(b) Use of Estimates

Revenue in EESTech currently relates to the ongoing R&D process with Sasol as EESTech has taken on testing of excess fine coal agglomeration.

The Company applies the five following steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfils its obligations under each of its arrangements:

	●	Identify the contract with the customer,

	●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract,

	●	Determine the transaction price,

	●	Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and

	●	Recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company estimates the transaction price, including variable consideration, at the commencement of the contract and recognizes revenue over the contract term, rather than at a point in time.

(d) Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) and other similar taxes

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

(e) Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash includes short-term investments that are readily convertible into cash with original maturities of three months or less.

(f) Property and Equipment

(g) Borrowings

Loans and borrowings (including to related parties) are initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs.

(h) Income Taxes

(i) Net Loss per Share

Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

Warrants outstanding at September 30, 2023	Number of shares warrants will convert to
1,351,785	1,351,785

(j) Non-Controlling Interests

Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.

(k) Segment Information

The Company is organized as a single operating segment, whereby its chief operating decision maker assess the performance of and allocates resources to the business as a whole.

(l) Share capital

Dividend Yield - The Company has not declared or paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends. As such, the dividend yield has been estimated to be zero.

(m) Fair value of financial instruments

The three-tier fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:

	●	Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and have the highest priority.

	●	Level 2 valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active.

	●	Level 3 valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity.

REVENUE

9. REVENUE

The 2 stages are as follows:

	1)	Evaluation of agglomerates to confirm suitability for gasification – EESTech will be provided with 2 tonnes of fine coal by Sasol for test work from which the Company must produce agglomerates meeting Sasol’s expectations along with providing a basic analysis of the agglomerated material. The Company has fulfilled their requirements of this stage during FY2021 and has recognized revenue related to this performance obligation.

	2)	A proposal from EESTech on the business model – If stage 1 produces suitable agglomerates which pass Sasol’s testing, EESTech will be required to develop a full proposal on a 200 kilo tonnes per annum scale project including a detailed business model. The Company has provided the proposal which Sasol has deemed appropriate and thus fulfilled their requirements of this performance obligation and recognized the corresponding revenue during FY2021.

	3)	Full scale demonstration in a commercial gasifier – Stage 3 entails EESTech to manufacture about 1,000 tonnes of agglomerates to enable a commercial scale demonstration. As at December 31, 2021, this stage had not yet been completed by the Company and hence, Sasol had not been invoiced for payment at year-end. However, the requirements of this stage were satisfied subsequent to year-end and has therefore been received and recognized as revenue in March 2022.

	1)	A comprehensive conceptual engineering design study for Phase 1 of the two-Phase project rollout. Phase 1 comprising the installation of a fine coal briquetting train with a processing capacity of approximately 580ktpa at Sasol’s East facility and then Phase 2 of a similar sized extrusion train at Sasol’s West facility. During FY2022, EESTech has received three payments, each of $83,483 towards the completion of the conceptual engineering design study of Phase 1, with a fourth payment of $83,483 invoiced and received in the March 2023 quarter.

Payment for each invoice is typically due 7 days from the date of invoice. There are no warranties or rights of return under this contract.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue in EESTech currently relates to the ongoing R&D process with Sasol as EESTech has taken on testing of excess fine coal agglomeration.

The Company applies the five following steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfils its obligations under each of its arrangements:

	●	Identify the contract with the customer,

	●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract,

	●	Determine the transaction price,

	●	Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and

	●	Recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company estimates the transaction price, including variable consideration, at the commencement of the contract and recognizes revenue over the contract term, rather than at a point in time.
