Corporate Changes
Effective June 25, 2024, the Company formed and organized a wholly owned subsidiary, GEVI Insurance Holdings Inc., an Ohio corporation (“GEVI Insurance”), to enter the wildfire insurance markets utilizing the Company’s flame retardant and flame suppression product. Effective February 21, 2025, the Company formed MFB Insurance Company, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (“MFBI”) and organized it as a wholly owned subsidiary of GEVI Insurance to act as a captive insurance company to enter the wildfire insurance market. MFBI was formed to act as a captive insurance company to reinsure real property protected with the Company’s CitroTech product. MFBI is not currently able to reinsure real property.
On July 8, 2025, the Company filed Articles of Amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Wyoming for a 1-for-6 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred”) and the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock” ). The Board of Directors of the Company believes that the Reverse Stock Split is an effective means by which to increase the minimum bid price of the Company’s Common Stock proportionately by reducing the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock and put the Company in a position to uplist to the New York Stock Exchange American. In connection with filing the Amendment, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). FINRA approved the Reverse Stock Split on August 27, 2025, to be effective on August 28, 2025 (the “Effective Date”).
On the Effective Date, each six (6) shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred and each six (6) shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued immediately prior to the Effective Date was reclassified and combined into one (1) share of Series A Preferred and one (1) share of Common Stock, respectively. No fractional shares were issued and, in lieu thereof, any holder of less than one (1) share of Series a Preferred or one (1) share of Common Stock was entitled to receive one whole share of the Series A Preferred or the Common Stock of the Company, respectively. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred and Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split. In addition, the Reverse Stock Split caused a reduction in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.

Liquidity

To continue operations beyond such time frame, the Company may be required to raise additional funds by completing additional equity or debt offerings or increasing revenue. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in acquiring additional funding, that the Company’s projections of its future working capital needs will prove accurate, or that any additional funding would be sufficient to continue operations in future years.

Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. In consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, our management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, we, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in our financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is likely, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We believe our most critical accounting estimates relate to the following:
·
Fair value of convertible notes
·
Fair value of warrant to purchase common stock
While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and on actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value of Convertible Notes
The Company determined that the conversion feature, embedded in convertible notes, met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock and therefore bifurcated the embedded conversion option once the note become convertible and accounted for it as a derivative liability. The fair value of the conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount and “day 1” derivative loss for the excess amount of debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the term of the note.
For the conversion feature classified as a liability, the Company uses a Binomial Lattice valuation model to value the derivative instrument at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
Fair Value of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
The Company has issued warrants to investors in our debt offerings.
We evaluate all warrants issued to determine the appropriate classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815. In addition to determining classification, we evaluate these instruments to determine if such instruments meet the definition of a derivative.
For warrants that are determined to be equity-classified, we estimate the fair value at issuance and record the amounts to additional paid in capital (potentially on a relative fair value basis if issued in a basket transaction with other financial instruments). Warrants that are equity-classified are not subsequently remeasured unless modified or required to be reclassified as liabilities. The classification of all outstanding warrants, including whether such instruments should be recorded as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

The warrants are valued using a Black Scholes valuation model. The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We have no 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 is material to stockholders.
