Business
Overview
General
The
Company’s business and operating results are directly affected by changes in overall customer demand, operational costs and performance
and leverage of our fixed cost and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) infrastructure.
Product
sales fluctuate in response to several factors including many that are beyond the Company’s control, such as general economic conditions,
interest rates, government regulations, consumer spending, labor availability, and our customers’ production rates and inventory
levels. Product sales consist of demand from customers in many different markets with different levels of cyclicality and seasonality.
Operating
performance is dependent on the Company’s ability to manage changes in input costs for items such as raw materials, labor, and
overhead operating costs. Performance is also affected by manufacturing efficiencies, including items such as on time delivery, quality,
scrap, and productivity. Market factors of supply and demand can impact operating costs.
Who
We Are
We
develop renewable energy products and solutions and establish partnerships in renewable energy that make environmental and economic sense.
Our mission is to be a segment leader in the Zero Emission Revolution by offering recyclable energy solutions, clean energy fuels and
alternative electric power for small and mid-sized projects in North America, Europe, and Asia. We target sustainable energy solutions
that are profitable for us, profitable for our customers and represent the future of global energy production.
Our
principal businesses
Waste
Heat Recovery Solutions – we recycle wasted heat produced in manufacturing, waste to energy and power generation facilities
using our patented Clean Cycle TM generator to create electricity which can be recycled or sold to the grid.
Waste
to Energy Solutions - we convert waste products created in manufacturing, agriculture, wastewater treatment plants and other industries

Summary
of Operating Results the three months Ended March 31, 2026 Compared to the same period in March 31, 2025 (Restated)
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 $7,030,646 and
a working capital of $1,036,272 as of March 31, 2026, The company also had an accumulated deficit of $35,962,199 as of March 31, 2026 and
used $836,618 in net cash from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Therefore, there is substantial doubt
about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its goals and
reach profitable operations and is still dependent upon its ability (1) to obtain sufficient debt and/or equity capital and/or (2) to
generate positive cash flow from operations.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, total revenue was $783,705, compared to $441,940 for the same period in 2025. The increase was
primarily attributable to higher revenue generated by our natural gas business in China.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our gross profit was $(13,930), compared to $411,878 for the same period in 2025. The decrease
in gross profit and gross margin was primarily attributable to a shift in our revenue mix, with a greater proportion of revenue generated
by our lower-margin natural gas business, as well as the absence of higher-margin clean energy system sales during the period.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our operating expenses were $705,354, compared to $824,656 for the same period in 2025. The decrease
in operating expenses was primarily attributable to lower salary and related personnel costs as fewer resources were required for our
Vermont Renewable Gas (“VRG”) projects, which are progressing into the final phase of the permitting process.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded a net loss of $662,200, compared to $660,007 for the same period in 2025. The net
loss remained relatively steady year-over-year, reflecting reduced salary expenses, lower general, legal and accounting costs, the impact
of financial results, the change in FV of the note receivable, and improved margins from our U.S.-based business activities.
For
the quarter ended March 31, 2026, stockholders’ equity increased to $7,030,646 compared to $6,246,597 as of December 31, 2025,
primarily due to higher increase from investments and interest income.
CETY
has successfully repositioned itself as a diversified clean energy solutions provider by establishing four distinct business segments
designed to support scalable, stable, and diversified revenue growth. These segments include:
●
Clean
Energy HRS (Heat Recovery Systems)
●
Waste-to-Energy
(via Pyrolysis Technology)
●
Engineering,
Procurement, and Consulting (EPC)
●
CETY
HK (Natural Gas Trading and Acquisitions)
Revenue
for the first quarter was primarily driven by the CETY HK natural gas trading business. Looking ahead, the company anticipates stronger
revenue contributions from its Waste-to-Energy, Heat Recovery, and EPC segments with higher margins.
CETY’s
pilot Waste-to-Energy facility in Vermont, which integrates all of the company’s proprietary technologies and operational expertise
into a unified, turnkey solution, is currently pending final approval from the Vermont Public Utility Commission.
Meanwhile,
demand for Heat Recovery solutions is accelerating across both the U.S. and Europe. In parallel, CETY is actively scaling its Engineering
and project management operations to deliver comprehensive self-generation energy solutions on a global scale.
41
Management
believes this 4-segment strategy has created many operational synergies and cross-selling opportunities across different markets. The
main macro factor benefiting us is the global commitment to push renewable energy to the forefront from governments across the world.
Another catalyst that will potentially help our Company, is a continuously improving our global supply chain and lowering our cost.
CETY
expects to and will continue to execute its corporate strategy to build sustained and profitable growth by providing end to end fully
integrated solutions and technologies, expand our global sales and marketing, production, research & development, as well as search
for synergistic acquisition opportunities.

Results
of the three Ended March 31, 2026, Compared to the three ended March 31, 2025 (Restated)
Net
Sales
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our total revenue was $783,705 compared to $441,940 for the same period in 2025. The higher revenue
was contributed to primarily due to our China natural gas business.
Segment
breakdown
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our revenue from the Heat Recovery Solutions (HRS) segment was $7,538, compared to $262,354 for
the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by no product sales from our HRS business unit. We continue to work diligently
on current requirements and engineering and design, which will enable us to execute contractual agreements and close additional opportunities.
The
sales cycle for these projects tends to be longer due to cost considerations and the integration complexity of our technology. We are
also engaging with financial institutions to support project financing, as customers increasingly adopt Independent Power Producer (IPP)
models. Additionally, general economic uncertainty and evolving federal clean-energy legislation, and investment tax credits have influenced
the timing of certain project commitments.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue from the CETY Renewables segment was $0, compared to $176,105 for the same period in 2025.
The segment generated no revenue during the period as the related projects remain pending final review by the Vermont Public Utility
Commission and issuance of the Certificate of Public Good. Revenue-generating construction activities are expected to commence following
receipt of the required regulatory approvals.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, CETY reported 0 revenue from its Engineering and Manufacturing segments, compared to no for the
same period in 2025. This segment is still in its early stages and much of the related activity is currently being integrated into the
HRS and CETY Renewables segments. However, with a developing pipeline of opportunities, CETY expects to see gradual revenue growth from
this segment.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue from our natural gas (NG) business was $776,167 an increase from $3,481 for the same period
in 2025. The increase primarily reflects higher revenue from our China natural gas business, despite the impact of macroeconomic conditions
and our strategic decision to reduce our focus on lower-margin business activities.
Gross
Profit
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, gross profit was $(13,930), compared to $411,878 for the same period in 2025. The decrease was
primarily attributable to the absence of sales of our higher-margin clean energy systems during the period, combined with a greater proportion
of revenue generated by our natural gas business in China, which operates at lower gross margins.
Segment
breakdown
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our gross profit from Engineering and Manufacturing amounted to $0, compared to $0 for the same
period in 2025. This segment is a recent addition to CETY’s portfolio, currently serving as a support for our ongoing internal
projects. Nevertheless, it is anticipated to expand as CETY shifts its focus towards providing comprehensive end-to-end power generation
and integrated solutions.
42
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, gross profit from our Heat Recovery Solutions (“HRS”) segment was $(25,223), compared
to $235,658 for the same period in 2025. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to the absence of product sales during
the period, combined with higher freight costs.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our gross profit from the CETY Renewables segment was $0, compared to $57,159 for the same period
in 2025. The Company is working through the Certificate of Public Good (CPG) process and approach the final stages of permitting.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our gross profit from our wholly owned subsidiary, JHJ, was $11,293, up from $115 for the same
period in 2025. This increase was primarily due to increase business activity in China.
Selling,
General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $147,729 compared to $222,557
for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower costs associated with a consulting agreement related to IR activities
and Nasdaq subscription.
Salaries
Expense
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our salary expenses totaled $294,433 compared to $433,799 for the same period in 2025. The decrease
was primarily due to reduced activity within our CETY Renewables business, while salary levels across other segments remained relatively
stable.
Travel
Expense
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our travel expenses were $28,062, compared to $32,377 for the same period in 2025. This slight
decrease reflects stable activity levels within our service and marketing operations.
Professional
fees legal and accounting
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our professional fees totaled $167,021, compared to $66,213 for the same period in 2025. The increase
was primarily due to costs associated with a audit fees.
Facility
Lease and Maintenance Expense
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our facility lease and maintenance expenses totaled $65,140, compared to $66,741 for the same
period in 2025. This slight decrease reflects normal fluctuations, with no significant changes in underlying operations.
Depreciation
and Amortization Expense
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our depreciation and amortization expense was $2,969, compared to $2,969 for the same period in
2025. There were no significant changes, as the majority of our equipment has already been fully depreciated.
Change
in Derivative Liability
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recorded derivative liabilities of $721,678 and $493,308, respectively. The increase
in derivative liability was primarily due to the issuance of new convertible instruments and mark-to-market adjustments resulting from
changes in our stock price and volatility. These fair value remeasurements are required each reporting period in accordance with ASC
815.
Change
in FV of warrant liability
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had $3,100 and $17,837 loss on warrant liability related to Equity Line of Credit
Agreement entered December 5, 2024.
Interest
Income
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, interest income from Florya associated with long-term financing receivable totaled $0 compared
to $14,050 for the same period in 2025 (Restated).
Interest
income included in other income consists primarily of interest earned on the Company’s convertible note receivable. During the
three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized $64,110 of interest income related to the accrual of interest under the terms
of the convertible note agreement.
43
Other
Income
Other
income includes a gain of $584,613 resulting from the remeasurement of the Company’s investment in the Filled Converge convertible
note to its estimated fair value of $435,053, recognition of forgiveness of debt of $85,558 and interest income of convertible note as
of March 31, 2026, compared to 21,413 as of March 31, 2025.
Interest
and Finance Fees
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, interest and finance fees totaled $515,128, compared to $348,186 for the same period in 2025.
The increase was primarily due to two larger interim financings obtained to bridge the Company through the finalization of funding for
the Vermont Renewable Gas Project and monetizing HRS projects.
Net
Loss
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, our net loss was $662,200, compared to a net loss of $660,056 for the same period in 2025 (Restated).
The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to the absence of higher-margin sales from our Heat Recovery Solutions (“HRS”)
segment, a shift in revenue mix toward our lower-margin China natural gas business, changes in Fv convertible, and lower gross margins
during the period, and interest and financing fee variations. Although operating expenses declined due to reduced personnel costs associated
with our Vermont Renewable Gas (“VRG”) projects as they progressed through the final permitting phase, these savings were
not sufficient to offset the decline in gross profit.

cash used in operating activities was $833,538 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $776,047 for the same period in
2025. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the Company’s operating loss and increases
in inventory, interest receivable, and other assets. These uses of cash were partially offset by non-cash items, including amortization
of debt discount and the fair value gain recognized on the Company’s note receivable, as well as increases in accounts payable,
accrued interest, customer deposits, and accrued expenses.

Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
periods.
44
Critical
accounting estimates include the valuation of the Company’s convertible note receivable and derivative liabilities, both of which
are measured at fair value using valuation techniques that incorporate significant unobservable inputs. Management, with the assistance
of independent valuation specialists, exercises significant judgment in selecting key assumptions, including expected stock price volatility,
risk-free interest rates, expected terms, stock prices, discount rates, and probability-weighted outcomes. Changes in these assumptions
could materially affect the reported fair values of these instruments and the corresponding gains or losses recognized in the Company’s
condensed consolidated financial statements.
We
regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these
policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience,
on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and
circumstances.
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).
The
following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle for our business:
●
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
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
45
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
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.
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.
During
the project development and engineering phase of our CETY Renewable projects such as VRG, we employ the input method of revenue recognition
to estimate revenue based on projected costs. This approach involves forecasting future costs and revenues to determine the amount of
revenue we recognize in the current period. It’s important to understand, however, that these recognized revenue figures are not
final and are subject to adjustments. Changes may occur as we gain more clarity on actual costs compared to our initial projections,
affecting the revenue recognized accordingly.
The
projected costs of the VRG project is based on estimates and profitability will be impacted depending on actual costs. Using the input
method for revenue recognition, the amount of recorded revenue is also affected depending on the estimated total costs. The purchase
price allocation for Shuya was also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company. The inputs for the valuation of the
Series E preferred shares were also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company.
Additionally,
the above five steps are applied to achieve core principle for our CETY Renewables Division:
Because
the CETY Renewables division is presently engaged in the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) of biomass power facilities,
CETY Renewables has developed a process of executing EPC Agreements with customers for this work. In contracting these engagements, CETY
Renewables recognizes revenue according to accounting standards in accordance with ASC 606.
46
In
recognizing this revenue, CETY Renewables first identifies the relevant contract with its customer according to 606-10-25-1.
●
The
entities, together known as the Parties, approved the contract in writing, through signatures and commitment to the performance of
permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
●
CETY’s
work product includes permits, engineering designs, equipment, and full balance of plant specific to permitting, design, procurement,
construction, and commissioning.
●
CETY
and customer agree to a total EPC Contract price.
●
The
contract has commercial substance. The risk associated with this EPC Agreement is that payment of the EPC contract price.
●
Per
the EPC Agreement, CETY expects to collect substantially all of the consideration for its goods and services.
Secondly,
CETY identifies the performance obligations of the Parties in performance of the EPC Agreement in accordance with 606-10-25-14. At contract
inception, CETY assesses the goods and services necessary to deliver the facility in accordance with the its agreement with its clients.
The agreement specifically laid out all deliverables necessary to achieve the permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
CETY
also looks at 606-10-25-14(A). A bundle of goods or services is also present, in that CETY is delivering all work products associated
with permitting, design, procurement, construction and commissioning of a commercially operable biomass power plant. A biomass power
plant is a distinct bundle of goods or services, so the individual goods or services on their own do not lend themselves to a fully integrated
or functional system.
CETY
in accordance with 606-10-32-1, CETY reviews measurement of the performance obligations. There are no exclusion of any amount of the
Contract Price due to constraints associated with 606-10-31-11 through 606-10-32-13.
In
review of 606-10-32-2A, CETY did not exclude measurement from the measurement of the transaction price any taxes assessed by a government
authority as no such taxes will be due.
In
reviewing 606-10-32-3, CETY evaluated the nature, timing, and amount of consideration promised, and whether it impacts the estimate of
the transaction price.
Finally,
in identifying a single method of measuring progress for each performance obligation satisfied over time, in accordance with 606-10-25-32,
CETY applies the methodology of 606-10-25-36. CETY adopted and implemented the input method for revenue recognition in accordance with
ASC 606-10-25-33. The company adopts the input method for implementation. CETY recognizes revenue for performance obligations on the
basis of the entity’s efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance obligation per 606-10-55-20.
For
CETY, the contracts with clients for the construction of biomass power plants are the basis for revenue recognition. In each separate
EPC Agreement, the performance obligations include permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning of the plant. All
of these work products satisfy Section 606-10-25-27(b) as these work products create or enhance an asset under customer’s control.
Upon delivery of the work product, the customer takes control of the work products and has full right and ability to direct the use of
and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the assets. We recognize revenue over time, using timeline and milestone methods
to measure progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.
During
the complexity and duration of the biomass power plant construction projects, CETY will recognize revenue over time, consistent with
the criteria for over-time recognition under ASC 606. This approach reflects the continuous transfer of documents, permits, and the equipment
over to the customer, which is characteristic of long-term construction contracts.
We
have a list of appropriate measures of progress: This is based on milestones achieved, among other measures.
Given
the long-term nature of the projects, CETY regularly reviews and, if necessary, updates its estimates of progress towards completion,
transaction price, and the allocation of the transaction price to performance obligations.

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%.
Series
E Valuation
Additionally,
the inputs for the valuation of the Series E preferred shares were also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company
and fair value measurements, furthermore, the purchase price allocation was based on estimates of fair market values.
Future
Financing
We
will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares to continue to fund our business operations. Issuance of additional shares
will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities
or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.
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.
