CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING-STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") of Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (the "Company") includes statements that are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of such terms as "believes," "estimates," "anticipates," "expects," "plans," "intends," "may," "could," "might," "will," "should," "approximately" or the negative or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. They appear in a number of places throughout this Form 10-Q and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, projections, outlook, analyses or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, our available cash, liquidity, prospects, growth and strategies, the length of time that we will be able to continue to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures, our expected financing needs and sources of financing, the industry in which we operate and the trends that may affect our industry or us.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to the occurrence and timing of events or circumstances, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. As a result of this, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Form 10-Q, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate, may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, they may not be predictive of results or developments in future periods.
Some of the material factors that we believe could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated or predicted include:
● | the successful development and implementation of our sales and marketing campaigns; |
● | the size and growth of the potential markets for our product and our ability to serve those markets; |
● | regulatory developments in the United States and other countries; |
● | our available cash; |
● | the accuracy of our estimates regarding expenses, future revenues, capital requirements and needs for additional financing; |
● | our ability to obtain additional funding; |
● | our ability to manufacture and the performance of third-party manufacturers; |
● | our ability to identify license and collaboration partners and to maintain existing relationships; and |
● | our ability to successfully implement our strategy. |
You should also read carefully the factors described in the "Risk Factors" section of the Form 10-12GA. Any forward-looking statements that we make in this Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of such statement, and we undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q except as required by the federal securities laws.
This Form 10-Q includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from industry publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. While we believe these industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies are reliable, we have not independently verified such data.

Note 1: Nature of Operations and Going Concern
Nature of Operations
Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. ("Rainmaker" or the "Company" or "RAKR") is a Nevada company which previously operated Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) ("RWI") until March 31, 2023, with its head office in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The Company distributes two main types of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing technologies: (1) Air-to-Water ("AW"), which harvests fresh water from humidity in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water ("WW"), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technology can be wind, solar, or use conventional power sources (grid or generator), is deployable anywhere, and leaves no carbon trace if renewable resources are deployed.
The Company generates its revenue through the direct sales of water production and purification systems. Another source of revenue is in exchange for operating, maintenance and professional services to clients and potentially joint ventures.
Effective April 1, 2023, Rainmaker (RAKR) divested 60% interest in Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (RWI) and continues to hold a 40% interest. RWI will be the driver of operations in Canada, the Caribbean, Central America and South America.
Rainmaker holds an indirect interest in Rainmaker Holland B.V. ("RHBV") through its ownership in RWI which consists of the innovation and manufacturing center located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. RAKR will purchase equipment on a favorable cost-plus formula.
Company History
RWI was incorporated on July 21, 2014, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the "Merger") pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the "Share Exchange Agreement") among the Company, RWI and RWI's 45 shareholders. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562common shares in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 2,672,750restricted shares of the Company's common stock. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company's former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. ("CJT") was changed on April 24, 2017, in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the transaction. As part of the merger, net liabilities of $235,495were recognized on the Company's balance sheet. As a result of the Merger the Company trades on the OTC:Pink under the trading symbol RAKR. Effective April 1, 2023, Rainmaker (RAKR) holds a 40% interest in Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (RWI). RAKR is an SEC filing company.
Going Concern
The Company has incurred continuing losses from its operations and has an accumulated deficit of $74,657,404. There are no assurances the Company will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms or that cash flows generated from its operations will be sufficient to meet its current operating costs and required debt service. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its business, which could harm its financial condition and operating results. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue ongoing operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
The Company's ability to continue its operations and to pay its obligations when they become due is contingent upon the Company obtaining additional financing. Management's plans include seeking to procure additional funds through debt and equity financing to enable it to meet its operating needs including current and future sales orders. In addition, revenues are being forecasted at the operational level.
Share Consolidation
On September 26, 2024, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to effect a share consolidation (also known as a reverse stock split) of its issued and outstanding common shares on a one-for-twenty-five basis. The share consolidation became effective on September 26, 2024. All share and per share amounts have been restated for all periods presented to reflect the share consolidation.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements presented are for the entity Rainmaker. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").
The preparation of the financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
All accounting policies are chosen to ensure the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability.
Foreign Currency Translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar.
Intangible Assets
No Intangible Assets.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.
Depreciation is provided at rates estimated to write off the cost of the relevant assets less their estimated residual values by equal annual amounts over their expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Depreciation periods for the Company's property and equipment are as follows:
Leasehold Improvements - lesser of 10 years or lease duration | Manufacturing Equipment - 5years |
Office Furniture & Equipment - 5years | Demonstration Equipment - 10years |
Intellectual Property - 14years | Computer Software - 5years |
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives.
For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount
The Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may be paid in the form of cash or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.
Demonstration Equipment
Demonstration equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.
Depreciation of the demonstration equipment is at a rate estimated to write off the cost of the equipment less its estimated residual value by an equal annual amount over its expected useful life. The residual value and expected useful life of the demonstration equipment is reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard update ('ASU"), 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the modified retrospective method, and the Company determined the new guidance does not change the Company's policy of revenue recognition.
The Company generates its revenue through the direct sales of water production and purification systems. A contract with a customer is established once an agreement is signed and the initial down payment is received. Each transaction price is established in the signed contract. Unearned revenue is recognized upon receipt of the down payment for the system. The revenue is recognized once title of the system transfers to the customer. The nature of the business of equipment sales implies there is only one performance obligation, which is delivery of the product to the customer. Our contracts outline each party's rights and obligations, including the terms and timing of payments. Another source of revenue is in exchange for operating, maintenance and professional services. That revenue is recognized in the period it is earned.
In June 2018, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the revenue recognition and measurement issues for grants, contracts, and similar arrangements, ASU Topic 958. Government grants and contracts are agreements that generally provide cost reimbursement for certain types of expenditures in return for research and development activities over a contractually defined period. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue from grants and contracts in the period during which the related costs are incurred, provided that the conditions under which the grants and contracts were provided have been met and only perfunctory performance obligations are outstanding.
Revenues recognized at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 are $143,725and $78,912respectively.
Related Party Transactions
Parties are related if one party can directly or indirectly control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Related party transactions that are in the normal course of business and have commercial substance are measured at the exchange amount.
Share-based Payment Expense
The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for stock awards granted to employees, directors, officers, and consultants. Share-based awards for employees are measured at the fair value of the related share-based awards. Share-based payments to others are valued based on the related services rendered or goods received or if this cannot be reliably measured, on the fair value of the instruments issued. Issuances of shares are valued using the fair value of the shares at the time of grant; issuances of options are valued using the Black-Scholes model with assumptions based on historical experience and future expectations.
10 |
Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for as debt or equity according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Marketing, Advertising and Promotional Costs
As required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States, the Company records marketing costs as an expense in the year to which such costs relate. The Company does not defer amounts on its year-end balance sheets with respect to marketing costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the year. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.
Loss per Share
The Company reports loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share". Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the year. The Company has options, debentures and other potentially dilutive instruments extending to the latest date of January 8, 2029.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, 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. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
Income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted by the date of the statement of financial position.
11 |
Equity-Settled Transactions
The costs of equity-settled transactions with employees are measured by reference to the fair value at the date on which they are granted.
The costs of equity-settled transactions are recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award ("the vesting date"). The cumulative expense is recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date and reflects the Company's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profit or loss charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period and the corresponding amount is represented in share-based compensation reserve.
No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition, which are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market condition is satisfied provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement or is beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.
Inventory
Inventory and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The production cost of inventory includes an appropriate proportion of depreciation and production overheads based on the ratio of indirect vs. direct costs. Cost is determined on the following bases: Raw materials and consumables are valued at cost on a first in, first out (FIFO) basis; finished products are valued at raw material cost, labor cost and a proportion of manufacturing overhead expenses.
Financial Instruments
ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.
Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.
The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in the circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no such transfers during the periods being reported.

Customer Concentration
Due to the infancy of the Company's market penetration, current sales are concentrated on a limited number of customers, regions and sectors.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. Cash balances are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation ("CDIC") up to CAD100,000per commercial bank. From time to time, cash in deposit accounts may exceed the insurance limits thus the excess would be at risk of loss. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had nocash equivalents.
Customer Deposits
The typical arrangement for customer deposits for purchases of Company products is 50% down at the time of ordering. The Company records the deposit as a current liability reflecting the obligation to provide the goods or services to the customer or to return the money. When the Company earns the deposit amount, the current liability will be debited, and sales revenues will be credited.

Depreciation for the demonstration equipment would be at a rate estimated to write off the cost of the equipment less its estimated residual value by an equal annual amount over its expected useful life. The residual value and expected useful life of the demonstration equipment is reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The Company does not currently have any demonstration equipment.
Note 10: Common Stock

Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of operating the Company's business, it may, from time to time, be subject to various claims or possible claims. Management's view that there are no claims or possible claims that if resolved would either individually or collectively result in a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. These matters are inherently uncertain, and management's view of these matters may change in the future.
On April 27, 2018, the Company identified a judgement dated August 8, 2016, against six Defendants including a former subsidiary of the Company as well as a predecessor of the Company as currently named and constituted. The amount of the judgement including costs is $4,423,910. An appeal was filed on November 9, 2016, by the previous management. A decision on the appeal was rendered on June 22, 2018, and the original judgement was upheld. As a result, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $4,423,910as of September 30, 2024 (2023: $4,423,910). The Company, since its last report, has not been contacted by the Plaintiff.
Note 13: Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is recorded at standard cost, which approximates actual cost, on the first-in first-out basis. The Company, at this time, holds no inventory but may in the future.
Note 14: Leases
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; the Company's leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.
There are no lease-related assets and liabilities recorded on the Company's balance sheet and the Company has no lease expenses.

Note 16: Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. This method requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2022, the Company's deferred tax assets relate to net operating loss ("NOL") carry-forwards that were derived from operating losses and stock-based compensation from prior years. A full valuation allowance has been applied to the Company's deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if the Company determines it is more likely than not that the related deferred income tax assets will be realized. At September 30, 2024, the Company had federal net operating loss carry-forwards, which are available to offset future taxable income, of $5,833,521. The Company's NOL carry-forwards can be carried forward to offset future taxable income for a period of 20 years for each tax year's loss. These NOL carry-forwards begin to expire in 2037. No provision was made for federal income taxes as the Company has significant NOLs in the United States and Canada. All of the Company's income tax years remained open for examination by taxing authorities.

Share Consolidation
On September 26, 2024, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to effect a share consolidation (also known as a reverse stock split) of its issued and outstanding common shares on a one-for-twenty-five basis. The share consolidation became effective on September 26, 2024. All share and per share amounts have been restated for all periods presented to reflect the share consolidation.
Overview
Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. ("RAKR", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") is a Nevada corporation originally formed on February 27, 1998. The corporation became RAKR on July 3, 2017, in a reverse merger. We are currently developing projects in various locations around the globe using RAKR and partner technologies. We are implementing these projects using technology of Rainmaker Holland B.V. ("RHBV"). RAKR retains access to the technology based on a cost-plus formula.
Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) ("RWI"), an Ontario Corporation, was formed in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada on July 21, 2014, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act to finance and commercialize patented technology and to consolidate the assets, intellectual property, and executive management expertise of DRM. RAKR retains a 40% interest in RWI following an investment from financial partners to affect the acquisition of Miranda.
On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the "Merger") pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the "Share Exchange Agreement") among the Company, RWI and RWI's 45 shareholders at the time. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562 common shares of stock in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all the issued and outstanding shares of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 2,672,750 restricted shares of the Company's common stock. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company's former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. ("CJT") was changed on April 24, 2017, in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the consummation of the transaction. As part of the Merger, net liabilities of $235,495 were recognized on the Company's balance sheet. As a result of the Merger, the Company trades on the OTC:Pink under the symbol RAKR.
The Company is headquartered in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The Company will utilize its two main types of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing/purification technologies: (1) Air-to-Water ("AW"), which harvests fresh water from humidity and heat in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water ("WW"), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technologies can be wind driven, solar based, or can use conventional power sources, such as grid or generator. It is deployable anywhere and leaves no carbon trace if renewable resources are deployed. Through the acquisition of Miranda and RAKR's own technologies we have multiple options to purify wastewater to potable water standards.
22 |
Miranda Acquisition
On January 22, 2024, RWI, a 40% subsidiary of RAKR, finalized the acquisition of Miranda. The first payment of one million USD together with 1,600,000 RAKR common shares was paid to the shareholders of Miranda. This provides RWI with controlling interest of Miranda initially at 60% of Miranda common stock holdings. The remaining two million USD is to be paid no later than 2 years from the closing date of January 22nd, 2024. Miranda is coming into 2024 after having a solid year of results in 2023 delivering projects in Iraq and Fiji among others. RWI and RAKR are actively marketing their solutions in Canada, US, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and South America. The expanded product portfolio will assist in market entry opportunities for Miranda and RAKR products alike, bringing revenue and value to all of the companies.
Ongoing Approach to Sales and Marketing
The Company's ongoing focus will be to pair Rainmaker technologies with those of Miranda and our affiliate partners.
The Company has generated limited revenue up to the present time, and its operations for the past four years have been typically focused on business development, market research, technology research and development activities. The Company had total assets of $30,725, as of December 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2024, net assets were $280,306.
At present, the Company executes consulting agreements with experienced executive personnel and senior advisors. Future sales will be heavily driven by independent distributors and project developers. The Company had revenue for the quarters ending September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2024 of $78,912 and $143,725 respectively. The Company had net losses of $246,815 and $193,963 for the quarters ending September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Year-to-date losses for September 30, 2024 and 2023 were $592,987 and $947,955 respectively. The losses in 2024 were reduced by 37% compared to the same period in 2023. The losses for the current quarter are driven by operating expenses including the costs associated with maintaining the Company's listing and current filing status with the SEC, consulting expenses, stock option expenses, as well as interest. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operating activities and has limited resources or revenues to cover its operating costs. The Company's auditor's report for 2023 stated that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Products and Services
Overview
Across the world, fresh water is unevenly distributed. Many regions are desperately under-served, including North Africa, the Middle East, India, Mexico, large portions of South America, and various island geographies.
Fundamentally, the solutions are based on deploying technology with the following attributes to ensure low-cost delivery and Company profitability:
● | Versatile | |
● | Scalable & Cost-effective | |
● | Environmentally & Socially Sustainable | |
● | Applying Proprietary Technology through partners and affiliates |
Air-to-Water (AW) - Harvests fresh water from airborne humidity by using advanced heating and cooling technologies. Water-to-Water (WW) technologies - Transforms contaminated water (saltwater, sewage, polluted) into safe, clean water by using an environmentally sustainable process. Through the acquisition of Miranda and RAKR's own technologies we have multiple options to purify wastewater to potable water standards.
23 |
The operating efficiency of these technologies allows us to provide customers with clean water at a price that is highly competitive relative to traditional alternatives. We substantially out-perform peer competitors because we can deploy remotely where the water is consumed and using up to 50% less power than those same competitors. The compact and scalable systems for AW and WW enable decentralized deployment, in which water is distributed directly to the consumption site with no expensive piping or truck transport. AW and WW are both cost-effective technology solutions and can be powered by solar, wind, or grid electricity, or a combination of power sources. They can produce roughly 5,000 to 150,000 liters of water per unit, per day, depending on the local conditions and the type of unit deployed.
The acquisition of Miranda provides the Company with a full suite of water production and purifications systems that are distributed and available to communities who need them the most.
Cost Information
Currently in remote locations, the principal source of supply is bottled water. Accordingly, our solutions are optimally profitable when we compete head-to-head with bottled water that is transported or bulk water that is transported by truck to local communities. In most remote communities where this water is imported, the minimum cost per liter is US$0.30 reaching as high as US$2.00, according to our market research. The Company's fully amortized cost of water per liter including bottling, operating and maintenance, distribution and other costs allows us to compete profitably to generate corporate value beneficial to our shareholders. The market for distilled water supported in part by WW-based technology, which is essential to more specialized industrial or commercial activities, is expected to increase margins significantly.
Regulatory Information
The global nature of our approach means that regulatory conditions vary by jurisdiction. We believe that the ultimate test of profitability in this complex, cross-jurisdictional environment will be the quality of the water that is bottled and tested. The Company seeks to adhere to World Health Organization standards for clean water using the technologies that are authorized in a particular sovereign jurisdiction.
Business Model
The RAKR business model typically begins with the identification of a trusted local technology partner and distributor. The Rainmaker delivery systems will be installed by contracted local third-party experts that are typically Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning ("HVAC") experts. We work with the end clients and their general contractors to build the supporting infrastructure required for our systems (i.e. holding tanks, platforms etc.).
In addition, over the course of the past year, we have been developing partnerships with highly experienced developers of complementary technology. That gives RAKR the ability to have a more comprehensive product set when proposing solutions to communities, developers and commercial entities. The most significant advance to date is the acquisition of Miranda. On January 22, 2024, RWI finalized the acquisition of Miranda (RAKR owns 40% of RWI). Miranda has been delivering systems for more than ten years across 40 countries globally. As a result, their global experience is invaluable to Rainmaker and Rainmaker shareholders.
Potential Improvements
Potential improvements and related applications that we are pursuing or plan to pursue include seeking more strategic and technology-based partnerships with complementary technology and business development companies to expand our global reach and service offering.

In the past ten years, there has been a growing awareness of the shortage of fresh water-and the associated economic and social effects the problem magnifies in impoverished and underdeveloped communities. Entities ranging from Water.Org to the United Nations (access to safe drinking water represents #6 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals articulated by the United Nations) are at the forefront of driving international policy momentum and prospects for multilateral cooperation in the realms of global governance and public-private co-regulation. Common to these efforts is the search for scalable and practical solutions that possess applications uniquely suited to the problem of shortage.
The metrics that underpin the international need for ingenuity and action are the same as those that animate and sustain the market opportunity for our Company:
(1) | Less than 3% of the world's water is fresh - the rest is seawater and undrinkable in its current state. | |
(2) | Of this 3%, over 2.5% is frozen and locked up in Antarctica, the Arctic and glaciers. | |
(3) | People and animals rely on 0.5% of the world's water. (Source: Unwater.org - Facts and Trends: Water) |
Moreover, at any moment, the atmosphere contains approximately 37.5 million billion gallons of water. This potential is not currently harvested by the means of private organizations or government institutions and thus presents a significant opportunity for AW technology to satisfy worldwide demand for water.
The World Health Organization estimates that 50 liters of water per day is required per individual to meet basic needs. It is estimated by the OECD that by 2030 nearly half of humanity will be living in a condition of severe water stress. Currently, according to UNICEF, 2.2 billion people around the globe lack safe drinking water. While high-income countries only treat 70% of wastewater, low-income countries treat 8%. With the world's population expected to reach 9 billion by 2038, the global need is indisputably high. Much of the population expansion is or will be in the very areas that are already suffering from the problem of water scarcity.
The above analysis points to a global market for water that is extraordinarily immense. Today, the annual global water market for all purposes and uses is $650 billion and is expected to expand to $1 trillion by 2025. (Source: RobecoSAM Study (2015, June). Water: the market of the future). Applying RAKR's approach against the purposes and uses defined above, our solutions are tailored to meet roughly 70% of that global level of demand.
Suppliers
As stated previously, our principal suppliers for the core technologies to be deployed are Miranda and RHBV. Should RHBV not supply the appropriate scale of technology required by a project, RAKR has identified multiple technologies of different sizes and types. With the acquisition of Miranda, we now have complementary technology that we expect to deliver in 2024 to diversify the Rainmaker business model.
Competition
The Rainmaker business model that will deliver potable water at the source of demand is uniquely positioned to address alternative competitive models. We believe that competitive models, while relevant and plausible alternatives, will not ultimately fully support the global level of demand for water at a reasonable price per liter. By virtue of our current affiliations, we believe we have a cost per liter competitive advantage. Accordingly, on a global basis, we do not believe competitive conditions will thwart our ability to produce long-term, corporate value or significantly diminish our financial results in the near term. However, other companies with sufficiently greater resources may develop competing products and have an advantage over us based on the relative size.
Government Subsidies and Incentives
While RAKR is not currently pursuing subsidies and incentives, we believe that over time such programs will be applicable to the Company, and we will pursue them in due course.
Over time, RAKR will seek subsidies and incentives through its deployment of technology in underserved countries and particular communities within countries. One example is First Nations in Canada where there is an ongoing and desperate shortage of safe drinkable and general-purpose water.
Intellectual Property
We have indirect access to intellectual property assets as a consequence of our partial ownership of and various partnerships with RHBV and Miranda. We believe that this allows us to maintain an edge in the competitive process from a technological and economic cost perspective.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Management's Plans
While we are similar to other development stage companies, we have now pursued and executed a strategy whereby we have a full suite of products that can deliver distributed water solutions globally. To date, our products have yet to generate significant revenue. As a result, we have historically suffered recurring losses and we do not have the required cash resources to fully execute our business plans.
Historically, the Company's major sources of cash have comprised proceeds from various private offerings of its securities (including common stock) and debt financing. From 2015 through to the fiscal year end date December 31, 2023, the Company raised approximately $8.2 million in gross proceeds from various private offerings of our common stock and convertible debt. These funds were raised during various stages of the company and allowed us first to develop a commercially ready product and as soon as logistics and supply chains allow, deliver these products into identified projects and begin to generate revenue. The Company has sustained losses from operations in each fiscal year since our inception, and we expect losses to continue for the indefinite future. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $74.7 million and $74.1 million and stockholders' equity of approximately $(11.5) and $(10.9) million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $288 in cash.
The Company recognizes and is addressing the need to raise additional capital in order to continue to execute its business plan in the future. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed or that the Company will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to it or whether the Company will become profitable and generate positive operating cash flow.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of 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 and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:
● | it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and | |
● | changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have material impact in our results of operations or financial condition. |
While we base our estimates and judgments on our experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material. The most significant estimates impact the following transactions or account balances: stock compensation.
See Note 2 in our financial statements for a discussion of our significant accounting policies.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective or Adopted
Until December 31, 2021, the Company evaluated embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature did not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument was evaluated under ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options for consideration of any beneficial conversion features. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method and reviewed and calculated the impact on the outstanding financial instruments as of this adoption date concluding there was no impact.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, as of December 31, 2022, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer also concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2024, based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2024, based on those criteria. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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.
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. We have identified the following material weaknesses:
1. | As of September 30, 2024, due to the inherent issue of segregation of duties in a small company, we have relied heavily on entity or management review controls. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. | |
2. | As of September 30, 2024, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification, and authorization of related party transactions. | |
3. | During the 2023 audit, it was necessary to record adjusting journal entries. Management has determined that the effects of the corrected misstatements are material, both individually and in aggregate, to the financial statements as a whole. The corrected misstatements or the matters underlying them could potentially cause future period financial statements to be materially misstated, even though, in the judgment of our auditor previously, such corrected misstatements are material to the financial statements under audit. | |
Professional standards define an audit adjustment as a proposed correction of the financial statements that, in the judgment of our auditor previously, may not have been detected except through the auditing procedures. An audit adjustment may or may not indicate matters that could have a significant effect on the Company's financial reporting process (that is, cause future financial statements to be materially misstated). In the judgment of our auditor previously, the adjustments proposed indicate matters that could have a significant effect on the Company's financial reporting process. |
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2024, based on the criteria established in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and EVP Finance, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of 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 our company have been detected.
