ITEM
7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This
management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of Bitech Technologies
Corporation (the “Company,” “Bitech Technologies,” “our” or “we”) is for the years ended
December 31, 2022 and 2021. It is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements for the period January
8, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022 and the accompanying notes for such period included in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on April 4, 2022. Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Financial information presented in this MD&A
is presented in United States dollars (“$” or “US$”), unless otherwise indicated.
The
information about us provided in this MD&A, including information incorporated by reference, may contain “forward-looking
statements” and certain “forward-looking information” as defined under applicable United States securities laws.
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, made by us that address activities, events or developments that we expect
or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements preceded by,
followed by or that include words such as “may”, “will”, “would”, “could”,
“should”, “believes”, “estimates”, “projects”, “potential”,
“expects”, “plans”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “targeted”,
“continues”, “forecasts”, “designed”, “goal”, or the negative of those words or
other similar or comparable words and includes, among others, information regarding: our future business activities; our ability to
generate revenues; our need for substantial additional financing to operate our current and future business and
difficulties we may face acquiring additional financing on terms acceptable to us or at all; risks related to competition; risks related to our lack of internal controls over financial reporting and their
effectiveness; increased costs we are subject to as a result of being a public company in the United States; and other events or
conditions that may occur in the future.
Forward-looking
statements may relate to future financial conditions, results of operations, plans, objectives, performance or business developments.
These statements speak only as at the date they are made and are based on information currently available and on the then current expectations
of the party making the statement and assumptions concerning future events, which are subject to a number of known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from that which
was expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Although
we believe that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance
should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, because no assurance can be given that they will prove to be correct. Since
forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature, they involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks discussed above.
Consequently,
all forward-looking statements made in this MD&A and other documents, as applicable, are qualified by such cautionary statements,
and there can be no assurance that the anticipated results or developments will actually be realized or, even if realized, that they
will have the expected consequences to or effects on us. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be
considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we and/or persons acting on its behalf may
issue. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise, other than as required under securities legislation.
Overview
of the Business
Currently, we have
refocused our business development plans as we seek to position ourselves as a global technology solution enabler dedicated to providing
a suite of green energy solutions with industry focus on green data centers, commercial and residential utility, EV infrastructure, and
other renewable energy initiatives. We have been developing and evaluating the commercial viability of our Evirontek™ Integrated
Platform to resolve the exorbitantly high cost of electricity in several industries . We plan to pursue these innovative
energy technologies through research and development, planned acquisitions of other green energy technologies and plans to become a grid-balancing
operator using Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) solutions and applying new green technologies in power plants as a technology enabler
in the green energy sector. While participating in the clean energy economy, we are seeking business partnerships with defensible technology
innovators and renewable energy providers to facilitate investments, provide new market entries toward emerging-growth regions and implement
or manufacture these innovative, scalable energy system solutions with technological focuses on smart grids, Building Energy Management
System (BEMS), energy storage, and EV infrastructure.
To accelerate growth of a planned intellectual property
(IP) portfolio through acquisition strategies, we plan to execute our Smart Acquisition Model with selected acquisitions of defensible
technologies accompanied with visionary management teams who can demonstrate a common goal with us in order to unlock the full potential
with capital infusion, accelerate growth. To achieve our development plans, we plan to incubate those acquired companies toward foreseeable
plans for mergers and acquisitions, formation of global joint ventures, while facilitating new market entry to today’s fastest growing
Southeast Asia region. With this acquisition model, we expect to build a valuable technology portfolio of IP assets in various innovative
green energy technologies, leveraging our network of global capital partners with low-cost manufacturing capacity and oversea outsourcing
technical talents from our niche sources in Vietnam.
Further, we plan to execute a Dual Growth Business
Model as depicted in the diagram below encompassing (1) IP portfolio growth which includes technology licensing or technology acquisitions,
enhanced with our plans to carry out research and development for specific applications, and (2) sustainable revenue growth by executing
planned BESS acquisitions via joint ventures with capital partners to collect joint venture income from BESS operations or Vietnam-based
manufacturing partners which can manufacture products derived from our technology solutions.
In
light of these initiatives and other reasons noted below, the Company has, however, elected to discontinue its efforts to commercialize
the electric power generation and charging system (the “Tesdison Technology”) it licensed from SuperGreen pursuant to the
SuperGreen License. The Company has determined that the Tesdison Technology was not functional nor was it capable of being developed
into a commercially viable product as had been represented to the Company by SuperGreen, its founder Calvin Cao, and his brother Michael
Cao, leading up to Bitech Mining entering into the SuperGreen License. In addition, the Company will temporarily pause the further development
of Intellisys-8, the Company’s planned chipset and related software that had been designed to reduce power consumption and heat
in computer systems and accelerate their computational speed due to the currently unfavorable market conditions within the cryptocurrency
market.
The
Company acquired Bitech Mining on March 31, 2022 pursuant to a Share Exchange
Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement we acquired
an aggregate of 94,312,250 shares of Bitech Mining’s Common Stock representing 100% of the issued
and outstanding shares of Bitech Mining in exchange for an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly authorized Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 53.975685
shares (an aggregate of approximately 485,781,300) of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Company Common Stock”) upon
filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock so that
there were a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock authorized but unissued to permit a full conversion of all the Series
A Preferred Stock. Effective as of June 27, 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 485,781,168 shares of Company
Common Stock following the June 27, 2022 filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s
authorized common stock to 1,000,000,000 shares. Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Sellers held, in the aggregate,
approximately 96% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company capital stock on a fully diluted basis.
The
Share Exchange was treated as a recapitalization and reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, and Bitech Mining is considered
the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result of the Share Exchange and the change in our business and operations, a discussion of
the past financial results of our predecessor, Spine Injury Solutions Inc., is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles,
the historical financial results of Bitech Mining, the accounting acquirer, prior to the Share Exchange are considered our historical
financial results.
The following agreements were entered into in connection
with the acquisition of Bitech Mining:
Agreements involving Peter L. Dalrymple. On
March 31, 2022, the Company, Quad and Peter L. Dalrymple (“Dalrymple”), a former director of the Company, entered into the
MSA, Note Amendment and Security Agreement Amendment. See “Item 1 - Business – Acquisition of Bitech Mining Corporation.”
Disposition of Quad Video Assets. On June 30, 2022,
we completed the sale of the Quad Video Assets pursuant to the terms of the Quad Video APA and the sale of certain accounts receivables
related to our former spine pain management business pursuant to the terms of the SPIN Accounts Receivable APA. See “Item 1 - Business
– Disposition of Quad Video Assets.”
Prior
to March 31, 2022, we were engaged in the business of owning, developing and leasing the Quad Video Halo video recording system (“QVH”)
used to record medical procedures including the collection of accounts receivables related to previously provided spine injury diagnostic
services (collectively, the “QVH Business”). On June 30, 2022, we sold the assets related to the QVH Business.

Comparison
of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company has not generated any revenues from its
primary business for the year ended December 31, 2022. We invoiced and collected $26,197 from QVH legacy business and recorded other income
of $50,275 generated from accounts receivable previously written-off as uncollectible for the year ended December 31, 2022. There was
no revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we incurred
$888,106 of general and administrative expenses compared to $284,959 for the same period in 2021. General and administrative expenses
have increased during 2022 compared to 2021 as the Company moves from development stage to revenue generation.
As a result of the foregoing, we had net loss of ($811,635)
for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a net loss of ($284,959) for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Working
Capital
The
calculation of Working Capital provides additional information and is not defined under GAAP. We define Working Capital as current assets
less current liabilities. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under GAAP.
This information is intended to provide investors with information about our liquidity.
Other
companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had total current liabilities of $11,397 and $11,106, respectively, and current assets
of $210,723 and $976,947, respectively, to meet our current obligations. As of December 31, 2022, we had working capital of $199,326,
a decrease of working capital of $766,515 as compared to December 31, 2021, driven primarily by cash used in operations.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, cash used in
operations was ($789,344) which primarily included the net loss of ($811,635) partially offset by a $35,000 full amortization of exclusive
license agreement.
We
have a history of operating losses. We have not yet achieved profitable operations and expect to incur further losses. We have
funded our operations primarily from equity financing. As of December 31, 2022, cash generated from financing activities was not
sufficient to fund our growth strategy in the short-term or long-term. The primary need for liquidity is to fund
working capital requirements of the business, including operational expenses in connection with our efforts to become a provider of
a suite of green energy solutions. The primary source of liquidity has primarily been private financing transactions. The ability to
fund operations and pursue opportunities within the green energy industry depends on our ability to raise funds from debt and/or
equity financing which is subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are
beyond our control. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that
it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
As
of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we do not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely
to have, a current or future effect on our results of operations or financial condition, including, and without limitation, such considerations
as liquidity and capital resources.
Changes
in or Adoption of Accounting Practices
There were no material changes in or adoption of new
accounting practices during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Accounting Policies

Note 2 of the accompanying notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which note is incorporated herein by reference.
Income
Tax Expense (Benefit)
We
have not made a provision for income taxes in 2022 or 2021, which reflects our valuation allowance established against our benefits from
net operating loss carryforwards.
