Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – GENERAL
These
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 reflect all adjustments which,
in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations
for the periods presented, in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature.
These
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company’s fiscal year end December 31, 2022 report. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial
information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of
additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the nine months
ending September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2023.
A
summary of significant accounting policies of Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company’s
financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for
their integrity and objectivity.
Corporate
History
We
were incorporated in California in July 1995 under the name Probe Manufacturing Industries, Inc. We redomiciled to Nevada in April 2005
under the name Probe Manufacturing, Inc. We manufactured electronics and provided services to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs)
of industrial, automotive, semiconductor, medical, communication, military, and high technology products. On September 11, 2015, Clean
Energy HRS, or “CE HRS”, our wholly owned subsidiary acquired the assets of Heat Recovery Solutions from General Electric
International. In November 2015, we changed our name to Clean Energy Technologies, Inc.
Our
internet website address is www.cetyinc.com and our subsidiary’s web site is www.heatrecoverysolutions.com The information
contained on our websites are not incorporated by reference into this document, and you should not consider any information contained
on, or that can be accessed through, our website as part of this document.
The
Company has four reportable segments: Clean Energy HRS (HRS), CETY Renewables waste to energy solutions, engineering and manufacturing
services, and CETY HK natural gas trading business.

Going
Concern
The
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets
and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had a total stockholder’s equity of $ 5,389,051 and
a working capital of $ 1,755,468 as of September 30, 2023. The company also had an accumulated deficit of $ 19,829,422 as of September
30, 2023. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. CETY has a clear strategy
in place and has the capability to successfully restructure its existing debt and secure additional financing. With its current strategic
approach and diversification of its products and solutions, the management has created a favorable environment for the company to transition
towards profitability.
Plan
of Operation
Our
mission is to be a leader in the zero-emission revolution by providing eco-friendly energy solutions, clean energy fuels, and alternative
electric power for small to mid-sized projects across North America, Europe, and Asia. The company harnesses the power of heat and biomass
to produce electricity with zero emissions and minimal cost. Additionally, the company offers Waste to Energy Solutions, converting waste
materials from manufacturing, agriculture, and wastewater treatment plants into electricity and biochar. Clean Energy Technologies also
provides engineering, consulting, and project management solutions, leveraging its expertise to develop clean energy projects for both
municipal and industrial customers, as well as Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) companies.

CETY
HK
Clean
Energy Technologies (H.K.) Limited (“CETY HK”) consists of two business ventures in mainland China:(i) our natural gas (“NG”)
trading operations sourcing and suppling NG to industries and municipalities. NG is principally used for heavy truck refueling stations
and urban or industrial users. We purchase large quantities of NG from large wholesale NG depots at fixed prices which are prepaid for
in advance at a discount to the market. We sell the NG to our customers at fixed prices or prevailing daily spot prices for the duration
of the contracts; and (ii) our planned joint venture with a large state-owned gas enterprise in China called Shenzhen Gas (Hong Kong)
International Co. Ltd. (“Shenzhen Gas”), acquiring natural gas pipeline operator facilities, primarily located in the southwestern
part of China. Our planned joint venture with Shenzhen Gas plans to acquire, with financing from Shenzhen Gas, natural gas pipeline operator
facilities with the goal of aggregating and selling the facilities to Shenzhen Gas in the future. According to our Framework Agreement
with Shenzhen Gas, we will be required to contribute $ 8 million to the joint venture which plans to raise those funds in future rounds
of financing. The terms of the joint venture are subject to the execution of definitive agreements.
NOTE
2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES :
A
summary of significant accounting policies of Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. (formerly Probe Manufacturing, Inc.) is presented to assist
in the understanding of the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s
management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
The
consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such
estimates may be materially different from actual financial results. Significant estimates include the recoverability of long-lived assets,
the collection of accounts receivable and valuation of inventory and reserves.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents
We
maintain most of our cash accounts at JP Morgan Chase bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(“FDIC”) up to $ 250,000 , (which we may exceed from time to time) per commercial bank. For the purposes of the statement of
cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of one year or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts
Receivable
Our
ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by us. Reserves for
uncollectable amounts are provided, based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts. Although we expect to collect amounts
due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 we had a reserve for potentially
un-collectable accounts receivable of $ 95,322 and $ 75,000 , respectively. Our policy for reserves for our long-term financing receivables is determined
on a contract-by-contract basis and considers the length of the financing arrangement. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022
we had a reserve for potentially un-collectable long-term financing receivables of $ 247,500 and $ 247,500 respectively.
Seven
(7) customers accounted for approximately 98 % of accounts receivable on September 30, 2023. Our trade accounts primarily represent unsecured
receivables. Historically, our bad debt write-offs related to these trade accounts have been insignificant. Four (4) customers accounted
for approximately 98 % of accounts receivable on December 31, 2022. Our trade accounts primarily represent unsecured receivables.
Lease
asset
As
of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 we had a lease asset that was purchased from General Electric with a value of $ 1,309,527 ,
however due to the purchase price allocation, we recognized a value of $ 217,584 . The lease is due to be commissioned in the 1st quarter
of 2024 and will generate approximately $ 20,000 per month for 120 months . See note 3 for additional information.
Inventory
Inventories
are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or net realizable value. Our industry experiences changes in technology, changes in
market value and availability of raw materials, as well as changing customer demand. We make provisions for estimated excess and obsolete
inventories based on regular audits and cycle counts of our on-hand inventory levels and forecasted customer demands and at times additional
provisions are made. Any inventory write offs are charged to the reserve account. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 we had
a reserve for potentially obsolete inventory of $ 897,808 .
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at lease inception at the lower of the present value
of the minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the related assets. The cost of ordinary maintenance and repairs is charged
to operations. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the
related assets:

AND EQUIPMENT ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES OF RELATED ASSETS
Furniture and fixtures
3 to 7 years
Equipment
7 to 10 years

Goodwill
The
Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other . Under ASC
350, goodwill is not amortized; rather, it is tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration
paid over the fair value of underlying identifiable net assets of business acquired.
The
Company tests goodwill during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if events arise or circumstances change that
indicate that goodwill may be impaired. The Company assesses whether goodwill impairment exists using both qualitative and quantitative
assessments. The qualitative assessment involves determining whether events or circumstances exist that indicate it is more likely than
not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If based on this qualitative assessment
the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, or if
the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment is performed, as required by ASC 350, to determine
whether a goodwill impairment exists.
The
quantitative test is used to compare the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s assets to the fair value of the reporting unit.
If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further evaluation is required, and no impairment loss is recognized. An impairment
loss occurs if the amount of the recorded goodwill exceeds the implied goodwill. The determination of the fair value of the Company’s
reporting units is based, among other things, on estimates of the future operating performance of the reporting unit being valued. A
goodwill impairment test is required to be completed, at minimum, once annually, and any resulting impairment loss recorded upon completion
of the assessment. Changes in market conditions, among other factors, may have an impact on these estimates and require interim impairment
assessments.
When
performing the two-step quantitative impairment test, the Company’s methodology includes the use of an income approach which discounts
future net cash flows to their present value at a rate that reflects the Company’s cost of capital, otherwise known as the discounted
cash flow method (“DCF”). These estimated fair values are based on estimates of future cash flows of the businesses. Factors
affecting these future cash flows include the continued market acceptance of the products and services offered by the businesses, the
development of new products and services by the businesses and the underlying cost of development, the future cost structure of the businesses,
and future technological changes. The Company also incorporates market multiples for comparable companies in determining the fair value
of our reporting units. Any such impairment would be recognized in full in the reporting period in which it has been identified.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company’s intangible assets consist of customer relationship intangibles, licenses and patents. Upon acquisition, estimates are
made in valuing acquired intangible assets, which include but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from customer contracts,
customer lists, and estimating cash flows from projects when completed; tradename and market position, as well as assumptions about the
period of time that customer relationships will continue; and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon
assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ
from the assumptions used in determining the fair values. All intangible assets are capitalized at their original cost and amortized
over their estimated useful lives.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
Long-lived
assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives, and operating lease right-of-use assets,
are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability
of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows,
an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair
value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.
The
Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying
amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducts its long-lived asset impairment analyses in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, “Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC 360-10-15 requires the Company to group assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which
identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and evaluate the asset group against
the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows. If the undiscounted cash flows do not indicate the carrying amount of the asset is recoverable,
an impairment charge is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group asset group exceeds its fair value based
on discounted cash flow analysis or appraisals. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the periods ended September 30, 2023
and 2022.

Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue under ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASC
606”).
Performance
Obligations Satisfied Over Time
FASB
ASC 606-10-25-27 through 25-29, 25-36 through 25-37, 55-5 through 55-10
An
entity transfers control of a good or service over time and satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time if one
of the following criteria is met:
a.
The customer receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity’s performance as the entity performs (as described in FASB
ASC 606-10-55-5 through 55-6).
b.
The entity’s performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset is
created or enhanced (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-55-7).
c.
The entity’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity (see FASB ASC 606-10-25-28), and the entity
has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-25-29).
Performance
Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time
FASB
ASC 606-10-25-30
If
a performance obligation is not satisfied over time, the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. To determine the point
in time at which a customer obtains control of a promised asset and the entity satisfies a performance obligation, the entity should
consider the guidance on control in FASB ASC 606-10-25-23 through 25-26. In addition, it should consider indicators of the transfer of
control, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
a.
The entity has a present right to payment for the asset.
b.
The customer has legal title to the asset.
c.
The entity has transferred physical possession of the asset.
d.
The customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.
e.
The customer has accepted the asset.
A
principal obtains control over any one of the following (ASC 606-10-55-37A):
a.
A
good or another asset from the other party which the entity then transfers to the customer. Note that momentary control before transfer
to the customer may not qualify.
b.
A
right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the entity the ability to direct that party to provide the service
to the customer on the entity’s behalf.
c.
A
good or service from the other party that it then combines with other goods or services in providing the specified good or service
to the customer.
If
the entity obtains control over one of the above before the good or service is transferred to a customer, the entity could be considered
a principal.
The
core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services
to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or
services. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration
it is entitled to in exchange for the goods and services transferred to the customer. In addition, a) the company also does not have
an alternative use for the asset if the customer were to cancel the contract, and b.) has a fully enforceable right to receive payment
for work performed (i.e., customers are required to pay as various milestones and/or timeframes are met)
The
following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle for our HRS and CETY Europe Divisions:
●
Identify
the contract with the customer
●
Identify
the performance obligations in the contract
●
Determine
the transaction price
●
Allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
●
Recognize
revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation
The
following steps are applied to our legacy engineering and manufacturing division:
●
We
generate a quotation
●
We
receive purchase orders from our customers.
●
We
build the product to their specification
●
We
invoice at the time of shipment
●
The
terms are typically Net 30 days
12
The
following step is applied to our CETY HK business unit:
●
CETY
HK is primarily responsible for fulfilling the contract / promise to provide the specified good or service.
Also,
from time to time our contracts state that the customer is not obligated to pay a final payment until the units are commissioned, i.e.,
a final payment of 10 %. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 we had $ 33,000 and 33,000 of deferred revenue, which is expected
to be recognized in the second quarter of year 2024.
Also,
from time to time we require upfront deposits from our customers based on the contract. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022
we had outstanding customer deposits of $ 770,943 and $ 80,475 respectively.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), “Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures” for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded
disclosures regarding fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or
the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between
market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize
the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the
Company uses to measure fair value:
●
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets
that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the related assets or liabilities.
●
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets
or liabilities. The Company’s derivative liabilities have been valued as Level 3 instruments. We value the derivative liability
using a lattice model, with a volatility of 91.5 % and using a risk free interest rate of 4.5 %
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, prepaid expenses, inventory, accounts payable, convertible notes payable, advances
from related parties, and derivative liabilities. The estimated fair value of cash, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable,
convertible notes payable and advances from related parties approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these
instruments.
The
carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflect:

The

of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Foreign
Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)
We
have no material components of other comprehensive income (loss) and accordingly, net loss is equal to comprehensive loss in all periods.
The accounts of the Company’s Chinese entities are maintained in RMB. The accounts of the Chinese entities were translated into
USD in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters.” All assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange
rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and the statements of operations and cash
flows are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other
comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income.” Gains and losses resulting from
foreign currency transactions are reflected in the statements of operations.
The
Company follows FASB ASC Topic 220-10, “Comprehensive Income (loss).” Comprehensive income (loss) comprises net income (loss)
and all changes to the statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes
in additional paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders.
13
Change
from fair value or equity method to consolidation.
In
July 2022 JHJ, a wholly owned subsidiary of CETY HK and other three shareholders agreed to form and make total capital contribution of
RMB 20 million ($ 2.81 million) with latest contribution due date in February 2066 into Sichuan Hongzuo Shuya Energy Limited (“Shuya”),
JHJ owns 20 % of Shuya. In August 2022 JHJ purchased 100 % ownership of Sichuan Shunengwei Energy Technology Limited (“SSET”)
for $ 0 , who owns 29 % of Shuya; Shunengwei is a holding company and did not have any operations nor made any capital contribution into
Shuya as of the ownership purchase date by JHJ; right after the ownership purchase of SSET, JHJ ultimately owns 49 % of Shuya.
Shuya
was set up as the operating entity for pipeline natural gas (PNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) trading business, while the other
two shareholders of Shuya have large supply relationships.
For
the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company has determined that Shuya was not a VIE and has evaluated its consolidation analysis under
the voting interest model. Because the Company does not own greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares, either directly or indirectly,
it has accounted for its investment in Shuya under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the investor (“JHJ”)
recognizes its share of the profits and losses of the investee (“Shuya”) in the periods when these profits and losses are
also reflected in the accounts of the investee. Any profit or loss recognized by the investing entity appears in its income statement.
Also, any recognized profit increases the investment recorded by the investing entity, while a recognized loss decreases the investment.
JHJ
made an investment of RMB 3.91 million ($ 0.55 million) into Shuya during the 12 months ended December 31, 2022 recorded in accordance
with ASC 323. Shuya had a net loss of approximately $ 10,750 during the year ending December 31, 2022 of which approximately $ 5,000 was
allocated to the company, reducing the investment by that amount.
However,
effective January 1, 2023 JHJ, SSET and Chengdu Xiangyueheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd (“Xiangyueheng”), who is the
10% shareholder of Shuya, entered a Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, wherein these three shareholders (or three parties) will
guarantee that the voting rights will be expressed in the same way at the shareholders’ meeting of Shuya to consolidate the controlling
position of the three parties in Shuya. The three parties agree that within the validity period of this agreement, before the party intends
to propose the motions to the shareholders or the board of directors on the major matters related to the voting rights of the shareholders
or the board of directors, the three parties internally will discuss, negotiate, and coordinate the motion topics for consistency; in
the event of disagreement, the opinions of JHJ shall prevail.
As
a result of Consistent Action Agreement, the Company re-analyzed and determined that Shuya is the variable interest entity (“VIE”)
of JHJ because 1) the equity investors at risk, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, and 2) Shuya
is structured with disproportionate voting rights, and substantially all the activities are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately
few voting rights. Under ASC 810, a reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a VIE, and must consolidate that VIE, if
the reporting entity has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly
affect the VIE’s economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially
be significant to the VIE. The Company concluded JHJ is deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, the Company consolidates
Shuya effective on January 1, 2023.
The
change of control interest was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification,
referred to as ASC, 805, Business Combinations. The management determined that the Company was the acquiror for financial accounting
purposes. In identifying the Company as the accounting acquiror, the companies considered the structure of the transaction and other
actions contemplated by the Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, relative outstanding share ownership and market values, the composition
of the combined company’s board of directors, the relative size of Shuya, and the designation of certain senior management positions
of the combined company.
In
accordance with ASC 805, the Company recorded the acquisition based on the fair value of the consideration transferred and then allocated
the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the Acquisition
Date. The excess of the value of consideration transferred over the aggregate fair value of those net assets was recorded as goodwill.
Any identified definite lived intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives and any identified intangible assets
with indefinite useful lives and goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually. All intangible assets
and goodwill will be tested for impairment when certain indicators are present. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of
future revenues and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The valuation of purchase considerations was based
on preliminary estimates that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Basing on preliminary independent valuation,
the management decides the difference in the fair value of the consideration paid and book records was immaterial. As Shuya has been
operated for less than a year after effective date of control in effective. The management decides that the final purchase price allocation
shall be re-valuated subject to change pending to additional operation results and forecast assumptions.
As
the Consistent Action Agreement did not quantify any considerations to gain the control, the deemed consideration paid is the fair value
of 51% non-controlling interest as of January 1, 2023. The following table summarizes the fair value of the consideration paid and the
fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on January 1, 2023, the acquisition date.

Under
ASC-805-10-50-2, initial consolidation of an investee previously reported using fair value or the equity method should be accounted for
prospectively as of the date the entity obtained a controlling financial interest. And the public business entities should provide pro
forma information as if the consolidation had occurred as of the beginning of each of the current and prior comparative reporting period.
However, Shuya was incorporated in July 2022 and the actual consolidation was effective on January 1, 2023 therefore, no comparative
period adjustments are presented for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as they do not exist.

Net
Loss per Common Share
Basic
loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. On September 30, 2023 we had outstanding
common shares of 38,968,955 used in the calculation of basic earnings per share. Basic weighted average common shares and equivalents
for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were 38,227,965 and 24,514,942 respectively. As of September 30,
2023 we had convertible notes, convertible into approximately 2,609,143 of additional common shares, 253,604 common stock warrants. Fully
diluted weighted average common shares and equivalents were withheld from the calculation for the three months ended September 30, 2023
and September 30, 2022 as they were considered anti-dilutive.
Research
and Development
We
had no amounts of research and development R&D expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
Segment
Disclosure
FASB
Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting , establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an
enterprise’s reportable segments. The Company has four reportable segments: Manufacturing & Engineering services, Clean Energy
HRS (HRS), CETY HK LNG Trading, and CETY Renewables Waste to Energy. The segments are determined based on several factors, including
the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics.
Refer to note 1 for a description of the various product categories manufactured under each of these segments.
An
operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is
defined as net sales less cost of sales, and segment selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include amortization
of intangibles, stock-based compensation, other charges (income), net and interest and other, net.

Share-Based
Compensation
The
Company has adopted the use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R)
(now contained in FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance and eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25’s
intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. This Statement requires an entity to measure
the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instruments, which includes grants of stock options and
stock warrants, based on the fair value of the award, measured at the grant date (with limited exceptions). Under this standard, the
fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date, using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We use the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our equity awards, including stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes model meets
the requirements of SFAS No. 123R; however, the fair values generated may not reflect their actual fair values, as it does not consider
certain factors, such as vesting requirements, employee attrition and transferability limitations. The Black-Scholes model valuation
is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and
expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility and estimated life of our stock options at grant date based on historical volatility.
For the “risk-free interest rate,” we use the Constant Maturity Treasury rate on 90-day government securities. The term is
equal to the time until the option expires. The dividend yield is not applicable, as the Company has not paid any dividends, nor do we
anticipate paying them in the foreseeable future. The fair value of our restricted stock is based on the market value of our free trading
common stock, on the grant date calculated using a 20-trading-day average. At the time of grant, the share-based compensation expense
is recognized in our financial statements based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest using historical employee attrition rates
and the expense is reduced accordingly. It is also adjusted to account for the restricted and thinly traded nature of the shares. The
expense is reviewed and adjusted in subsequent periods if actual attrition differs from those estimates.
We
re-evaluate the assumptions used to value our share-based awards on a quarterly basis and, if changes warrant different assumptions,
the share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from the amount expensed in the past. We may be required to adjust any
remaining share-based compensation expense, based on any additions, cancellations, or adjustments to the share-based awards. The expense
is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award—the requisite service
period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the
requisite service. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 we had $ 82,100 in share-based expense. As of September
30, 2023 we had no further non-vested expense to be recognized.

Leases
On
January 2, 2020, the Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, or ASC 842, using the modified retrospective transition method with a cumulative
effect adjustment to be accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019, and accordingly, modified its policy on accounting for leases as stated
below. As described under “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements,” below, the primary impact of adopting ASC 842 for
the Company was the recognition in the consolidated balance sheet of certain lease-related assets and liabilities for operating leases
with terms longer than 12 months.
The
Company’s leases primarily consist of facility leases which are classified as operating leases. The Company assesses whether an
arrangement contains a lease at inception. The Company recognizes a lease liability to make contractual payments under all leases with
terms greater than twelve months and a corresponding right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease
term. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term using the collateralized
incremental borrowing rate since the implicit rate is unknown. Options to extend or terminate a lease are included in the lease term
when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such an option. The right-of-use asset is initially measured as the contractual
lease liability plus any initial direct costs and prepaid lease payments made, less any lease incentives. Lease expense is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leased
right-of-use assets are subject to impairment testing as a long-lived asset at the asset-group level. The Company monitors its long-lived
assets for indicators of impairment. As the Company’s leased right-of-use assets primarily relate to facility leases, early abandonment
of all or part of facility as part of a restructuring plan is typically an indicator of impairment. If impairment indicators are present,
the Company tests whether the carrying amount of the leased right-of-use asset is recoverable including consideration of sublease income,
and if not recoverable, measures impairment loss for the right-of-use asset or asset group.
Income
Taxes
Federal
Income taxes are not currently due since we have had losses since inception of Clean Energy Technologies.
On
December 22, 2018, H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. Among the significant
changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate (“Federal Tax Rate”)
from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company will compute its income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 using
a Federal Tax Rate of 21% and an estimated state of California rate of 9% .
Income
taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition. Under
this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis
of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred
tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard required by ASC 740-10-25-5.
Deferred
income tax amounts reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes.
On
February 13, 2018, Clean Energy Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant” or “Corporation”)
entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (“Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and between MGW Investment I Limited (“MGWI”)
and the Corporation. The Corporation received $ 907,388 in exchange for the issuance of 302,462,667 restricted shares of the Corporation’s
common stock, par value $ .001 per share (the “Common Stock”).
On
February 13, 2018, the Corporation and Confections Ventures Limited. (“CVL”) entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement
(the “Convertible Note Purchase Agreement,” together with the Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereunder, the “Financing”) pursuant to which the Corporation issued to CVL a convertible promissory Note (the “CVL
Note”) in the principal amount of $ 939,500 with an interest rate of 10 % per annum interest rate and a maturity date of February
13, 2020. The CVL Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at $ 0.12 per share, as adjusted as provided therein. This note was
assigned to MGW Investments.
This
resulted in a change in control, which limited the net operating to that date forward. We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and the
states of California. Further, the Company currently has no open tax years’ subject to audit prior to December 31, 2015. The Company
is current on its federal and state tax returns.

Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
The
Company’s management reviewed all recently issued ASU’s not yet adopted by the Company and does not believe the future adoptions
of any such ASU’s may be expected to cause a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or the results
of its operations.
Deferred
Stock Issuance Costs
Deferred
stock issuance costs represent amounts paid for legal, consulting, and other offering expenses in conjunction with the future raising
of additional capital to be performed within one year. These costs are netted against additional paid-in capital as a cost of the stock
issuance upon closing of the respective stock placement.

On
November 11, 2013, we entered into an accounts receivable financing agreement with American Interbanc (now Nations Interbanc). Amounts
outstanding under the agreement bear interest at the rate of 2.5 % annually. It is secured by the assets of the Company. In addition,
it is personally guaranteed by Kambiz Mahdi, our Chief Executive Officer. As of September 30, 2023 the outstanding balance was $ 648,369
compared to $ 998,820 at December 31, 2022.
On
April 1, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the purchase order financing agreement with DHN Capital, LLC dba Nations Interbanc. Nations
Interbanc has lowered the accrued fees balance by $ 275,000 as well as the accrual rate to 2.25 % per 30 days. As a result, CETY has agreed
to remit a minimum monthly payment of $ 25,000 by the final calendar day of each month.
On
September 11, 2015, our CE HRS subsidiary issued a promissory note in the initial principal amount $ 1,400,000 and assumed a pension liability
of $ 100,000 , for a total liability of $ 1,500,000 , in connection with our acquisition of the heat recovery solutions, or HRS, assets of
General Electric International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GEII”), including intellectual property, patents, trademarks,
machinery, equipment, tooling and fixtures. The note bears interest at the rate of 2.66 % per annum. The note is payable on the following
schedule: (a) $ 200,000 in principal on December 31, 2015 and (b) thereafter, the remaining principal amount of $1,200,000, together with
interest thereon, payable in equal quarterly instalments of principal and interest of $157,609, commencing on December 31, 2016 and continuing
until December 31, 2019, at which time the remaining unpaid principal amount of this note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon
shall be due and payable in full . CETY stopped making payments and informed GE that it had encountered difficulties because of the valuations
of the assets that were acquired from GE. Given that the values of the assets were different than GE’s internal reports and as
we discussed at the time of the transaction with GE’s management, we proposed a change in the amount the Company owes GE under
the purchase agreement, but GE was non-responsive, and GE’s entire distributed power vertical has been divested.
Based

ASB
ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize
almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained
a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely
similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. Lessor accounting is similar to the current
model but has been updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. This ASU is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted the above ASU
as of January 1, 2019. The right of use asset and lease liability have been recorded at the present value of the future minimum lease
payments, utilizing a 5 % average borrowing rate based on the major banks borrowing rate in China..

of any outstanding preferred stock. If we liquidate, dissolve or wind up, the holders of common stock shares will be entitled to share

in the event cash dividends were not paid when scheduled. If the Company does not pay the dividend within five (5) business days from
the end of the calendar month for which the payment of such dividend is owed, the Company will pay the investor a special dividend of
an additional 3.5%. Any unpaid or accrued special dividends will be paid upon liquidation or redemption. For any other dividends or distributions,
the Series D Preferred Stock participates with common stock on an as-converted basis. The Series D Preferred holders may elect to convert
the Series D Preferred Stock, in their sole discretion, at any time after a one-year (1) year holding period, by sending the Company
a notice to convert. The conversion rate is equal to the greater of $3.20 or a 20% discount to the average of the three (3) lowest closing
market prices of the common stock during the ten (10) trading day period prior to conversion. The Series D Preferred Stock is redeemable
from funds legally available for distribution at the option of the individual holders of the Series D Preferred Stock commencing any
time after the one (1) year period from the offering closing at a price equal to the initial purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid
dividends, provided, that if the Company gave notice to the investors that it was not in a financial position to redeem the Series D
Preferred, the Company and the Series D Preferred holders are obligated to negotiate in good faith for an extension of the redemption
period. The Company timely notified the investors that it was not in a financial position to redeem the Series D Preferred and the Company
and the investors have engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine an appropriate extension period. The Company may elect to redeem
the Series D Preferred Stock any time at a price equal to the initial purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, subject to
the investors’ right to convert, by providing written notice about its intent to redeem. Each investor has the right to convert
the Series D Preferred Stock at least ten (10) days prior to such redemption by the Company.

13 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
From
August 2022 through October 2022 Hongzhuo Shuya (Shuya) a 49 % owned subsidiary (also is our consolidated VIE) of CETY HK limited engaged
in the trading of pipeline gas and CNG processing and sales provided Sichuan Leishen Hongzhuo Energy Development Co., Ltd (Leishen) with
approximately total of $ 700,000 loan with a 4-year term to facilitate building of a natural gas recycling station to provide Shuya
with CNG sales. Leishen owns 41% of Shuya and as an entity can obtain the permits and licenses to build and operate the NG Recycling
Station to produce CNG. At the end of the 4-year term of the loan, Leishen has the option to either transfer the NG Recycling Station and
all permits to Shuya or repay the loan .
Additionally,
Leishen has relationships with the supply side of the NG business and is able to obtain large amounts of NG. As a result, Shuya also
has a supplier relationship with Leishen. The price obtained from Leishen will be better than any unrelated party as their markup is
below market. Our Board of Directors has approved the transactions between Leishen and the Company. During the quarter ended September
30, 2023 Shuya made a $ 1.13 million purchase from Leishen. As of September 30, 2023 we had no account receivable
from Leishen, advance to supplier of Leishen of $ 468,810 , accounts payable to Leishen of $ 91,706 . In addition, we lent
approximately $ 700,000 to Leishen as of September 30, 2023 for Leishen to construct a CNG refueling station on behalf of
Shuya, the loan term is four years. When the CNG refueling station is ready for operation, Shuya will lease the CNG refueling station
from Leishen at a favorabvle price equivalent to the depreciation amount of the station; when the assets are eligible for transfer, Leishen
will transfer the assets of CNG refueling station to Shuya at the net asset value.
Effective August 5, 2022 Shuya entered a 48 months lease for a natural gas recycle station from Leishen (the 41% shareholder of Shuya), including the operating right and use right of all the assets and equipment in the station. The annual rent is approximately $76,100, to be paid each year in advance.

to which Reddot deposited funds into escrow to fund the repayment and we assigned to Reddot our right to acquire the convertible note

of $ .20 per share, subject to potential further adjustment in the event of certain Common Stock issuances, (b) to have a fixed interest
rate of ten percent ( 10 %) per annum with respect to both the redemption amount and including a financing fee and any costs, expenses,
or other fees relating to the convertible note or its enforcement and collection, and any other expense for or on our account (in each
case with a minimum 10% yield in the event of payoff or conversion within the first year), such amounts to constitute additional principal
under the convertible note, as amended, and (c) as otherwise provided in the Escrow Funding Agreement. The March 2016 convertible note,
as so amended, is referred to as the “Master Note.”
Concurrently
with the foregoing note repayments, we entered into a Credit Agreement and Promissory Note (the “Credit Agreement”) with

(the “CVL Note”) in the principal amount of $ 939,500
with an interest rate of 10 %
per annum interest rate and a maturity date of February 13, 2020. The CVL Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at $ 0.12
per share, as adjusted as provided therein. As a result, we recognized a beneficial conversion feature of $ 532,383 ,
which is amortized over the life of the note. This note was assigned to MGW Investments, and they agreed not to convert the $ 939,500
note into shares in excess of the 20,000,000
Authorized limit until we have increased the Authorized shares to the Board approved limit of 50,000,000

trading price during the previous twenty (20) trading days to the date of a Conversion Notice; or (ii) 0.12. As a result of the

15 – NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST
On
April 2, 2023 the Company formed CETY Capital LLC a wholly owned subsidiary of CETY. In addition, the company established Vermont Renewable
Gas LLC (“VRG”) with our partner, Synergy Bioproducts Corporation (“SBC”) The purpose of the joint venture is
the development of a pyrolysis plant established to convert wood feedstock into electricity and BioChar by using high temperature ablative
fast pyrolysis reactor for which Clean Energy Technology, Inc. holds the license for. The VRG is in Lyndon, Vermont. Based upon the terms
of the members’ agreement, CETY Capital LLC owns a 49 % interest and SBC owns a 51 % interest in Vermont Renewable Gas LLC.
The
Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity
(“VIE”). The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as
a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient
equity to operate without financial support from both parties. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE
when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling
financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates
a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 49/51 and the
agreement provides for a Management Committee of 3 members. Two of the three members are from Synergy Bioproducts Corporation, and one
is from CETY. Both parties do not have substantial capital at risk and CETY does not have voting interest. However, SBC has controlling
interest and more board votes therefore SBC is the beneficiary of the VIE and as a result we record it as an equity investment. Accordingly,
the Company has elected to account for the joint venture as an equity method investment in accordance with ASC 323 Investments –
Equity Method and Joint Ventures. This decision is a result of the company’s evaluation of its involvement with potential variable
interest entities and their respective risk and reward scenarios, which collectively affirm that the conditions necessitating the application
of the variable interest model are not present.
In
July 2022 JHJ and other three shareholders agreed to form and make total capital contribution of RMB 20 million ($ 2.81 million) with
latest contribution due date in February 2066 into Sichuan Hongzuo Shuya Energy Limited (“Shuya”), JHJ owns 20 % of Shuya.
In August 2022 JHJ purchased 100 % ownership of Sichuan Shunengwei Energy Technology Limited (“SSET”) for $ 0 , who owns 29 %
of Shuya; Shunengwei is a holding company and did not have any operations nor made any capital contribution into Shuya as of the ownership
purchase date by JHJ; right after the ownership purchase of SSET, JHJ ultimately owns 49 % of Shuya. As a result of Consistent Action
Agreement entered on December 31, 2022 the Company re-analyzed and determined that Shuya is the variable interest entity (“VIE”)
of JHJ, and the Company consolidates Shuya into its consolidated financial statements effective on January 1, 2023. The non-controlling
interest of Shuya represents the 41 % equity ownership that is owned by Leishen, and 10 % equity ownership owned by another shareholder.

NOTE
16 – THE STATUTORY RESERVES
The
Company’s ability to pay dividends primarily depends on it receiving funds from its subsidiaries. PRC laws and regulations permit
payments of dividends by the Company’s PRC subsidiaries only out of the subsidiary’s retained earnings, if any, as determined
in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the financial statements prepared
in accordance with US GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries.
In
accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment and their articles of association, a foreign-invested enterprise
(“FIE”) established in the PRC is required to provide statutory reserves, which are appropriated from net profit as reported
in the FIE’s PRC statutory accounts. An FIE is required to allocate at least 10 % of its annual after-tax profit to the surplus
reserve until such reserve reaches 50 % of its respective registered capital based on the FIE’s PRC statutory accounts. Appropriations
to other funds are at the discretion of the BOD for all FIEs. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and
are not distributable as cash dividends. Additionally, shareholders of an FIE are required to contribute capital to satisfy the registered
capital requirement of the FIE. Until such a contribution of capital is satisfied, the FIE is not allowed to repatriate profits to its
shareholders, unless otherwise approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange.
Additionally,
in accordance with the Company Laws of the PRC, a domestic enterprise is required to provide surplus reserve at least 10% of its annual
after-tax profit until such reserve has reached 50 % of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory
accounts. A domestic enterprise is also required to have a discretionary surplus reserve, at the discretion of the BOD, from the profits
determined in accordance with the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. Appropriation to such reserve by the Company is based on
profit arrived at under PRC accounting standards for business enterprises for each year. The profit arrived at must be set off against
any accumulated losses sustained by the Company in prior years before allocation is made to the statutory reserve. The aforementioned
reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. Technology was established as domestic enterprises
and therefore is subject to the above-mentioned restrictions on distributable profits.
As
a result of these PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10 % of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment
of dividends as general reserve fund, the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their
net assets to the Company as a dividend.
In
addition, according to Administrative Measures for the Collection and Utilization of Enterprise Work Safety Funds issued by the PRC Ministry
of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety, for the companies with dangerous goods production or storage, the company is
required to make a special reserve for the use of enhancing and improving its safe production conditions. Under PRC GAAP, the reserve
is recorded as selling expense; however, under US GAAP, since the expense has not been incurred and the Company will record cost of sales
for safety related expenses when it is actually happened or incurred, this special reserve was recorded as an appropriation of its after-tax
income. The reserve is calculated at a rate of 15 % of total sales.
