QUALITY INDUSTRIAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1: OUR HISTORY
The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada under the name Sensor Technologies, Inc. on May 4, 1998. In March 2006 the Company changed its name to Bixby Energy Systems Inc. In September 2006, the Company changed its name to Power Play Development Corporation. In April 2007, the Company changed its name to National League of Poker, Inc. In October 2007 the Company changed its name back to Power Play Development Corporation. In October 2011 the Company changed its name to Bluestar Technologies, Inc. In March 2018, the Company then changed its name to Wikisoft Corp.
In May 2016, the Company's Board of Directors terminated the services of all prior officers and directors and the board appointed Robert Stevens as the Board Appointed Receiver for the Company. This was a private receivership where the receiver was appointed by the board to act on behalf of the Company and no court filings were ever made in connection with the receivership. On April 16, 2019, in connection with the Merger described below, Robert Stevens resigned from all of his positions with the Company and the board-appointed receivership was concluded. At that time Rasmus Refer was appointed as the Company's CEO and Director, and he resigned from such positions in August and November 2020, respectively. On August 31, 2020, Carsten Kjems Falk was appointed as CEO, and Paul C Quintal was on December 1, 2021, appointed as the sole director of the Company.
On April 11, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with WikiSoft Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation which was then the Company's wholly owned subsidiary ("Merger Sub") and WikiSoft Corp., a privately held Delaware corporation ("WikiSoft DE"). In connection with the closing of this merger transaction, Merger Sub merged with and into WikiSoft DE (the "Merger") on April 24, 2019. Pursuant to the Merger, the Company acquired WikiSoft DE which then became its wholly owned subsidiary.
On March 19, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Short Form Merger Agreement") with WikiSoft DE, pursuant to which it was agreed that the Company would merge with and into WikiSoft DE, with the Company surviving. Thereafter, on March 25, 2020, WikiSoft DE merged with and into the Company, with the Company (i.e., WikiSoft Corp. - the NV corporation) surviving pursuant to a Certificate of Ownership and Merger filed in with Delaware Secretary of State, whereby the then wholly owned subsidiary (WikiSoft DE) merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving. On March 25, 2020, the Company filed Articles of Conversion in Nevada, whereby the then subsidiary (WikiSoft DE) merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving. Prior to the Merger, the Company did not have any business operations, and at the closing of the Merger, the Company's business was as described in detail below.
Wikisoft Corp. had a vision to become one of the largest portals of information for businesses and business professionals. Built on open-source software, the portal wikiprofile.com, was initially launched in January 2018, and the portal was relaunched in June 2021.
We changed ownership on May 28, 2022, when ILUS at the time, acquired 77.4% of the outstanding shares in our Company. Consequently, ILUS is now able to unilaterally control the election of our board of directors, all matters upon which shareholder approval is required and, ultimately, the direction of our Company. Also, during the year, Mr. Nicolas Link, beneficial owner of ILUS, was appointed as our Executive Chairman of the Board, Mr. John-Paul Backwell was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Carsten Falk resigned as our Chief Executive Officer and was appointed as our Chief Commercial Officer.
In line with the change in control and business direction, our Company changed its name to Quality Industrial Corp. with the ticker QIND, with a market effective date of August 4, 2022. As a result of these transactions, Quality Industrial Corp. is a public company focused on the industrial, oil & gas and utility sectors and a subsidiary to ILUS. The Company filed articles of merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger with our wholly owned subsidiary, Quality Industrial Corp. Shareholder approval was not required under Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. As part of the merger, our board of directors authorized a change in our name to "Quality Industrial Corp." and our Articles of Incorporation have been amended to reflect this name change. Our common stock trades under the symbol "QIND."
F-5
After ILUS acquired control of QIND, on May 28, 2022, ILUS signed a binding letter of intent on June 28, 2022, for the Company to acquire control of Quality International, an international process manufacturing company, manufacturing custom solutions for the oil & gas, petrochemical & refinery, chemical & fertilizer, power & desalination, water & wastewater, and offshore industries.
On March 9, 2023, we changed the SIC code of the Company to SIC 3590 - Misc. Industrial & Commercial Machinery and Equipment to reflect the new business direction.
On March 27, 2024, the Company signed a definitive Share Purchase Agreement with Al Shola Gas LLC ("ASG" or the "ASG Acquisition"). ASG is an Engineering and Distribution Company in the LPG Industry in the U.A.E. and was established in 1980. The company are one of the leading suppliers & contractors of LPG centralized pipeline systems. Al Sholas gas LLC has been consolidated since acquired on March 27, 2024.
On April 1, 2024, after several failed effort negotiations with the purpose of restructuring the deal and obtaining information from the selling shareholders of Quality International, the QI Purchase Agreement with Quality International was terminated by Quality International and subsequently the Board of Directors of the Company approved the cancellation of the agreement with Quality International Co Ltd FZC signed on January 18, 2023, and amended on July 27, 2023. Quality International Co Ltd FZC is no longer consolidated with our financial statements.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of QIND, and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiary are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for interim financial information. It is management's opinion that the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Quality Industrial Corp. as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 8, 2024. The results of operations for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for future periods.
Use of estimates
A critical accounting estimate is an estimate that: (i) is made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) involves a significant level of estimation uncertainty and (iii) has had or is reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates and updates its estimates. Management employs judgment in making its estimates but they are based on historical experience and currently available information and various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes that its judgment is applied consistently and produces financial information that fairly depicts the results of operations for all periods presented.
F-6
Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company's, impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition of contract-based revenue, allowances for uncollectible accounts, and the valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivables are recorded at the invoice amount less an allowance for credit losses. The allowance is an estimate based on historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions, and a review of the current status of each customer's trade accounts receivable. Management evaluates the aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of its customers and all other forward-looking information that is reasonably available to estimate the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected in the future and before recording the appropriate provision.
The duration of such receivables extends from 30 days to beyond 90 days. Payments are received only when a project is completed, and approvals are obtained. Provisions are created based on the estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by referring to past default experience and future economic and market conditions.
Inventories
In accordance with ASC 330, the Company states inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost, which includes material, labor and overhead, is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company makes adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value, if required, for estimated excess, obsolete, zero usage or impaired balances. Factors influencing these adjustments include changes in market demand, product life cycle and engineering changes.
Property, Plant & Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are recorded at cost, except when acquired in a business combination where property, plant and equipment are recorded at fair value. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Property, Plant and Equipment | Years | |
Machinery | 5 - 15 | |
Vehicles | 5 - 10 | |
Furniture, Fixtures & Office Equipment | 3 - 5 |
Expenditures that extend the useful life of existing property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When property, plant and equipment are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is removed from the Company's balance sheet, with any gain or loss reflected in operations.
Depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 was $19,694 and $0, respectively. Depreciation expense for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 was $58,880 and $0, respectively.
F-7
Deposits
Advances have been paid to the suppliers and subcontractors in the ordinary course of business for the procurement of specialized material and equipment required in the process of designing, engineering and installing Central Gas distribution and monitoring systems. The Company is engaged in the design, engineering, supply and monitoring of Central Gas systems supplying and installing equipment such as pressure regulators, pipelines, safety equipment, tapping points, metering units, valves and storage tanks. To undertake these projects, the Company is required to make upfront investments in materials and machinery. These projects involve many processes and take substantial time to complete. We estimate that the deposit will be utilized in the next 12 months, however, some will only be returned upon cancellation such as office lease deposit, internet and utilities.
End-of-service benefits
Employee end-of-service benefits in our subsidiary Al Shola Gas amounting to $1134,884 as of September 30, 2024, are provided to employees, in the UAE when they leave a job. Eligibility begins after one year of continuous service and varies based on contract type and length of service. These liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the cost of acquired companies in excess of the fair value of the net assets at the acquisition date and is subject to annual impairment. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid for an acquired entity and the amount of the price not assigned to acquired assets and liabilities. It arises when an acquirer pays a high price to acquire a business. This asset only arises from an acquisition, and it cannot be generated internally. Goodwill is an intangible asset, and so is listed within the long-term assets section of the acquirers' balance sheet.
The Company accounts for business combinations by estimating the fair value of consideration paid for acquired businesses and assigning that amount to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remainder assigned to goodwill. If the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value of consideration paid, a gain on bargain purchase is recognized. The estimates of fair values are determined utilizing customary valuation procedures and techniques, which require us, among other things, to estimate future cash flows and discount rates. Such analyses involve significant judgments and estimations.
The Company follows the guidance prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to test goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually if an event occurs or circumstances change which indicates that its carrying amount may not exceed its fair value.
F-8
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, warrants, accrued expenses, and debt, short term as well as long term, is recorded at fair value. Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) 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 maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.
● | Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. |
● | Level 2. Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices included for identical or similar assets and liabilities that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. These are typically obtained from readily available pricing sources for comparable instruments. |
● | Level 3. Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity's own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances. |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606).
The principal activity of the Company is to engage in general trading, manufacturing and fabrication or steel and steel products and mainly manufacturing of pressure vessels, tanks, heat exchangers and construction of storage tanks and piping. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements because it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
Stock-based compensation
The Company recognizes all stock-based compensation using the fair value provisions prescribed by ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Accordingly, compensation costs for awards of stock-based compensation settled in shares are determined based on the fair value of the share-based instrument at the time of grant and are recognized as expense over the vesting period of the share-based instrument, net of estimated forfeitures.
In accordance with ASC 718, the Company will generally apply the same guidance to both employee and non-employee share-based awards. However, the Company will also follow specific guidance for share-based awards to non-employees related to the attribution of compensation cost and the inputs to the option-pricing model for expected term. Non-employee share-based payment equity awards are measured at the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments, similar to employee share-based payment equity awards.
F-9
The Company calculates the fair value of option grants and warrant issuances utilizing the Binomial pricing model. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time stock options are granted and warrants are issued to employees and non-employees, and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term "forfeiture" is distinct from "cancellations" or "expirations" and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered stock option or warrant. The Company estimates forfeiture rates for all unvested awards when calculating the expenses for the period. In estimating the forfeiture rate, the Company monitors both stock option and warrant exercises as well as employee termination patterns. The resulting stock-based compensation expense for both employee and non-employee awards is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
Earnings (loss) per share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 260-10 "Earnings Per Share," which provides for the calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740-10-50, "Income Taxes" ("ASC Topic 740"). This standard prescribes a 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. There was no material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations as a result of the application of this standard. Deferred tax assets have not been created the majority of the company's income belongs to the subsidiary, which is registered in an income tax-free jurisdiction since any losses incurred cannot be utilized in the future, rendering deferred tax assets irrelevant, The profits of a foreign subsidiary corporation are ordinarily not subject to tax in the United States as in accordance with the general Internal Revenue Service rule, foreign subsidiaries are not considered U.S. corporations even if they are wholly owned.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has evaluated all other recent accounting pronouncements and believes that none of them are expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Lease liabilities
The Company accounts for leases under ASC Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842). Under Topic 842, at the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include, if any, the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate.
The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments, or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.
The Company's subsidiary, Al Shola Gas, has entered into commercial vehicles. These leases generally have a lease term of 4 years. The Company's obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor's title to the leased assets. There are no restrictions placed upon the Company by entering into these leases. The Company also has leases with terms of 12 months or less which the Company has elected to not apply Topic 842 to short-term leases.
The Company has a Lease arrangement for which the liability has been recorded separately. The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease liability and corresponding right of use (ROU) asset are recognized for qualifying leased assets based on the present value of fixed and certain index-based lease payments at lease commencement.
The Company's obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor's title to the leased assets. There are no restrictions placed upon the Company by entering into these leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception and recognizes an ROU asset and a lease liability based on the present value of fixed, and certain index-based lease payments at the lease commencement date. Variable payments are excluded from the present value of lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the payment is made.
F-11
The Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for measuring its lease liabilities, as the Company cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease because it does not have access to certain lessor-specific information. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not have significant finance leases. The Company has elected not to separate payments for lease components from payments for non-lease components for all classes of leases.
When accounting for finance leases in accordance with ASC 842, the entity recognizes interest on the lease liability and amortization of the ROU asset in the income statement and classify payments of the principal portion of the lease liability as financing activities and payments of interest on the lease liability as operating activities.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 31, 2023, balance sheet to conform to the September 30, 2024, presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the net loss or loss per share as previously reported.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
General
The following is a discussion by management of its view of the Company's business, financial condition, and corporate performance for the past year. The purpose of this information is to provide management's recap of the past year, and to give an understanding of management's current outlook for the near future. This section is meant to be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
QIND is a Nevada Corporation that is majority-owned by ILUS. ILUS functions as QIND's parent company, and as such it concentrates on providing strategic management oversight that includes financial, administration, marketing, and human resources support to its operating companies. QIND functions as the Industrial subsidiary of ILUS.
Factors Affecting Our Performance
The primary factors affecting our results of operations include but are not limited to:
General Macro Economic Conditions
Our business is impacted by the global economic environment, employment levels, consumer confidence, government, and municipal spending. Global instability in securities markets and the Russian invasion of Ukraine are among other factors that can impact our financial performance. In particular, changes in the U.S. economic climate can impact the demand of our product range. The Industrial and Manufacturing sectors are impacted by the overall economic environment as addressed in the risk factors. Tenders can be withdrawn and lead times for the manufacturing can be affected which can result in cancellation of orders if not delivered on time.
Recent Developments
On March 27, 2024, we entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Al Shola Al Modea Gas Distribution LLC ("ASG" or "Al Shola Gas") to acquire a 51% interest in ASG. The Closing of the transaction took place when both parties signed the definitive Share Purchase Agreement. Al Shola Gas is an Industrial and Utilities company in the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Industry in the United Arab Emirates and was established in 1980. The company is one of the region's leading LPG suppliers and contractors of LPG centralized pipeline systems. It is approved by The General Directorate of Civil Defense, Government of Dubai, as a Central Gas Contractor and LPG Supplier. Al Shola Gas has been consolidated into the financials from the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

On April 1, 2024, after several failed effort negotiations with the purpose of restructuring the deal and obtaining information from the selling shareholders of Quality International, the Purchase Agreement with Quality International was terminated by Quality International and subsequently, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the cancellation of the agreement with Quality International Co Ltd FZC signed on January 18, 2023, and amended on July 27, 2023. The company is in the process of unwinding the remaining part of the transaction consisting of $2M buy-back commitment, with management aiming to recover the investment or parts of it. However, if recovery proves unattainable, the investment may need to be written off.
On May 23, 2024, Quality Industrial Corp. entered into a binding term sheet with Actelis Networks, Inc, a Delaware corporation traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol ASNS, pursuant to which Actelis would acquire between 61% to 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's share capital. We originally intended to close the transaction, pending regulatory requirements and due diligence, within 60 days. On August 30, 2024, we agreed to further extend the non-solicitation and no-shop periods provided in the Term Sheet until October 1, 2024, unless mutually terminated earlier by the parties. On October 10, 2024, ASNS provided the Company with written notice of ASNS' intent to terminate the Term Sheet in accordance with the termination provisions thereof, which require a 30-day written notice of termination. The 30-day period ended, and the Term Sheet was definitively canceled on November 11, 2024.
On November 18, 2024, Quality Industrial Corp., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), Fusion Fuel Green PLC, an Irish public limited company (the "Fusion Fuel"), Ilustrato Pictures International Inc., a Nevada corporation , a stockholder of the Company ("Ilustrato"), and certain other stockholders of the Company (together with Ilustrato, the "Sellers" and the Sellers together with the Company and Fusion Fuel, the "Parties"), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2024 (the "Purchase Agreement"). Under the Purchase Agreement, the Sellers will transfer an aggregate of 78,312,334 shares of common stock and 20,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, constituting approximately 69.36% of the capital stock of the Company, to Fusion Fuel (the "Transferred Shares"). Fusion Fuel will issue 3,818,969 Class A ordinary shares and 4,171,327 preferred shares to the Sellers, subject to adjustment, with provisions for the preferred shares to convert into 41,713,270 ordinary shares subject to shareholder approval and Nasdaq listing clearance. The Purchase Agreement also provides for a post-closing merger of the Company into a newly formed subsidiary of Fusion Fuel, resulting in the Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fusion Fuel. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. The Parties have also agreed to several post-closing covenants, including actions related to shareholder meetings and financing arrangements. The agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and indemnification provisions, and certain unwinding and termination rights.
Planned Developments
In the final quarter of 2024, the Company intends to allocate resources to its operating subsidiary, Al Shola Gas, with the objectives of enhancing efficiency, driving increased sales, expanding into new territories, and positively influencing our financial performance, supported by our parent company, Fusion Fuel Green PLC, which is listed on the NASDAQ under the symbol "HTOO." Furthermore, the Company plans to invest in new vehicles, specifically bobtail trucks, for Al Shola Gas to augment their Bulk LPG supply capabilities, thereby enhancing our revenue stream. We anticipate that both our revenue and operating expenses will experience an increase as we implement our expansion plan related to Al Shola Gas. This increase will primarily be attributed to administrative and operating costs associated with our business activities.
Results of Operation for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024, and 2023
Revenues
We earned $2,662,050 & $5,979,256 in revenue for the Three and Nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared with $0 in revenue for the Three and Nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in revenue is a result of revenue from our acquisition of Al Shola Gas consolidated from the second quarter of 2024. In the third quarter, Al shola Gas, grew its revenue with 17% compared with the same quarter last year. We expect the revenue to grow in the last three months of the year compared with Q3. The last quarter of the year has historically been the strongest for our operating business Al Shola Gas.
3
Gross Profit
We earned $1,080,762 & $3,649,260 in Gross Profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared with $0 in Gross Profit for the Three and Nine months ended September 30, 2023. Gross profit % increased to 40.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared with Gross Profit % of 38.9% for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in gross profit % is attributable to a strategic shift in our operating business, Al Shola Gas, to Bulk LPG with higher margins.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased to $1,187,583 for the Three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $825,608 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Operating expenses increased to $2,098,762 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $900,0675 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Our operating expenses for the Three and Nine month ended September 30, 2024, were mainly as a result of administrative and operating costs associated with the business activities of our subsidiary Al Shola Gas, and increased costs associated with the intended uplist to NASDAQ including but not limited to a reaudit of 2022 and 2023 fiscal years with our new independent auditor enabling a registration statement once uplisted. Our operating expenses for the Three and Nine month ended September 30, 2023, were mainly the result of issuance of shares to our management
We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase as we undertake our control plan associated with operating business Al Shola Gas. The increase will be attributable to administrative and operating costs associated with our business activities and the professional fees associated with our reporting obligations.
Non-Operating Expenses
We had other non-operating expenses of $140,833 for the Three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $129,336 for the Three months ended September 30, 2023. Non-operating expenses increased to $306,684 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $174,574 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Our non-operating expenses for the Three and Nine month ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same periods in 2023, were higher due to stock issued discount and interest of debts.
Our Interest on Convertible notes for the three and Nine month ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same periods in 2023 increased. The management plan to pay off some or all of the notes with an intended uplist to NASDAQ.
Non-Operating Income
We had other non-operating income of $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared $0 for the same period ended 2023. We had other non-operating income of $427,554 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared $0 for the same period ended 2023. Our other income for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, was a result of reversal of interest payments on the loan agreements with Mahavir and Artelliq in the first quarter which was unwound with cancellation of the agreement with Quality International.
4
Net Income/Net Loss
We incurred Net loss of $283,750 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $1,939,269 for the Three months ended September 30, 2023. We earned Net Income of $271,383 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $3,606,026 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024, were mainly associated with one off costs with the intended uplist to NASDAQ.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2024, we had total current assets of $6,346,815 and total current liabilities of $10,123,134. We had a working capital deficit of $3,776,319 as of September 30, 2024. This compares with a working capital deficit of $6,089,634 as of December 31, 2023.
Operating activities provided $(1,675,954) in cash for the Nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared with $(2,792,079) used in cash for the Nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Investing activities used $881,025 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared with $470,000 used in cash for the Nine months ended September 30, 2023. We expect our investing cash flow will grow upon uplist to a national exchange as result of investing in long-term assets for the company's growth.
Financing activities used $1,014,064 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared with $2,324,222 in cash provided for the same period ended 2023. Our financing cash flow for Q3 2024, were mainly the result of changes in retained earnings and minority interest, proceeds from conversion notes and additional paid in capital from share issuances.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Management evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued and determined. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to continue to generate sufficient revenues and raise capital within one year from the date of filing.
Over the next twelve months, management plans to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits; however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available.
5
Impact of Acquisitions
Historically a significant component of our growth has been through the acquisition of businesses in our targeted sectors. We typically incur upfront costs as we incorporate and integrate acquired businesses into our operating philosophy and operational excellence. This includes consolidation of supplies and raw materials, optimized logistics and production processes, and other restructuring and improvements initiatives. The benefits of these integration efforts and upcoming planned acquisitions may not positively impact our financial results in the short term but has historically been the case in the medium to long term.
Critical Accounting Policies
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most "critical accounting policies" in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a "critical accounting policy" is both important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results, and requires management's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of inherently uncertain matters. Our critical accounting policies are disclosed in the Notes of our unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Goodwill
The Company continues to review its goodwill for possible impairment or loss of value at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that a reporting unit's carrying amount is greater than its fair value. On September 30, 2024, we performed a goodwill impairment evaluation. We performed a qualitative assessment of factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the work performed, the Company has concluded that no impairment loss was warranted on September 30, 2024. Factors including non-renewal of a major contract or other substantial changes in business conditions could have a material adverse effect on the valuation of goodwill in future periods and the resulting charge could be material to the future periods' results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 also clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, for both interim and annual reporting periods. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-04 on its consolidated financial statements.
6
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
As required by SEC Rule 15d-15, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
