Notes to the Financial Statements September 30, 2021 (Unaudited) Note 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “Fourth Wave” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2020, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted. On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. In connection with the acquisition of Fourth Wave, Inc. (“FWAV”) in March 2020, the Company entered into consulting agreements with certain founders of FWAV. The consulting agreements require the Company to collectively pay $ 379,850 in consulting fees during the terms of the consulting agreements. In March 2021 the Company agreed to sell the FWAV technologies and its business plan to GeoSolar Technologies, Inc. (“GST”) in exchange for 10,000,000 common shares of GST. As a part of this transaction, the consultants agreed to release the Company from any liability for any consulting fees owed to them by the Company and return a portion of the common shares they held. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 4,700,000 shares of the Company's common stock were returned to the Company and cancelled. In March 2020 the Director General of the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and global efforts to contain its spread will impact our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, and include the duration, severity and scope of the pandemic and the actions taken to contain or treat the COVID-19 pandemic. Significant Accounting Policies Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying value of short-term instruments, including cash, accounts payable and short-term notes approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs. The Company utilizes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements, defined as follows: Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. 7 Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value Fair Value Measurements The Company’s assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy. The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the Company’s estimated level within the fair value hierarchy of those assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: Schedule of Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability Fair value measured at September 30, 2021 Total carrying value at September 30, 2021 Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) Significant other observable inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Derivative liabilities $ 813,490 $ – $ – $ 813,490 Fair value measured at December 31, 2020 Total carrying value at December 31, 2020 Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) Significant other observable inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Derivative liabilities $ 676,022 $ – $ – $ 676,022 There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the period. The table below presents the change in the fair value of the derivative liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2021: Schedule of change in the fair value of the derivative liability Fair value as of December 31, 2020 $ 676,022 Fair value on the date of issuance recorded as a debt discount 404,620 Extinguishment of liability to equity due to conversions ( 609,373 ) Loss on change in fair value of derivatives 342,221 Fair value as of September 30, 2021 $ 813,490 Convertible debt The Company records a beneficial conversion feature related to the issuance of convertible notes that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates. The beneficial conversion feature for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds as an increase in additional paid-in capital and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features. The beneficial conversion feature will be accreted by recording additional noncash interest expense over the expected life of the convertible notes. 8 Beneficial Conversion Features If the conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Derivative Financial Instruments Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt under ASC 470, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments under ASC 815. The Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40-35-12 to determine the order in which each convertible instrument would be evaluated for derivative classification. Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on its financial statements. Note 2. Going Concern These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2021 the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available. Note 3. Note Receivable On August 20, 2021 the Company entered into a Letter of Intent with EdgeMode, Inc. (“EdgeMode”). Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company will, at the closing, acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of EdgeMode for that number of shares of the Company's common stock which, at closing, will represent 80% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock. The Letter of Intent with EdgeMode is non-binding and may be terminated by either party. EdgeMode is a high performance computing infrastructure management platform. EdgeMode deploys Bitcoin mining data center containers fully-integrated into the locations of its energy asset partners. The acquisition of EdgeMode is subject to a number of conditions, including the execution of a definitive agreement between the parties. On September 30, 2021, the Company loaned EdgeMode $ 750,000 to assist in securing hosting facilities. The note bears interest at 16 % per annum and is due and payable on March 31, 2022 . 9 Note 4. Related Party Transactions Effective April 30, 2019, the Company agreed to increase the compensation to the President of the Company to $ 11,500 per month for management services if funds are available or to accrue such amount if funds are not available. The agreement is verbal and can be cancelled at any time. In addition, the President of the Company advances cash to fund operations and periodically pays expenses on behalf of the Company subject to reimbursement. Fees earned during the period are as follows: Schedule of Related Party Transactions Nine months ended September 30, 2021 Nine months ended September 30, 2020 Prior period balance $ 21,837 $ 104,623 Management fees 103,500 103,500 Cash advances – 9,105 Expenses paid on behalf of Company 2,237 4,229 Repayments ( 124,563 ) ( 121,320 ) End of period balance $ 3,011 $ 100,137 On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into a services agreement with Axiom Group, which is owned by the President of the Company. The services agreement includes investor relation services for a term of eighteen months for compensation of $90,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company prepaid the $ 90,000 services agreement and will amortize the prepayment over the term on the agreement. As of September 30, 2021, $ 60,000 of the services agreement is reflected in prepaid expenses. Note 5. Notes Payable On January 15, 2020, the Company converted $ 20,000 in advances from a third party into a promissory note. The unsecured note bears an interest rate of 8 % and matures on January 15, 2021 . On February 16, 2021, the Company settled the $ 20,000 promissory note and $ 1,745 of accrued interest and issued 217,447 shares of common stock as consideration for the debt settlement. On April 16, 2021, the Company converted $ 180,900 of promissory notes into 1,809,000 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $ 0.10 . As a result, the Company recognized a loss on settlement of debt of $ 365,547 . As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the combined advances and notes payable totaled $ 35,000 and $ 235,900 , respectively. Note 6. Convertible Notes Payable and Derivative Liability On June 4, 2019, the Company borrowed $ 55,000 from an unrelated third party. The loan is evidenced by an unsecured note which had an original issuance discount of $ 5,000 which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 10 % and is due and payable on March 4, 2020 and is currently past due. If a default notice is received the interest rate will be 20%. At any time on or before December 1, 2019 the Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 20% to 40%. After December 1, 2019, the Company may not repay the loan without the consent of the lender. At any time after December 1, 2019, the unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 65% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $ 33,615 which was recorded as a discount on the note payable. On June 1, 2021, $ 15,000 of the unsecured convertible note principal was converted into 136,364 shares of common stock at $0.11 per share. On July 2, 2021, the Company repaid $ 40,000 in principal, $ 11,310 in accrued interest and $ 28,690 additional interest expense on the convertible note payable.

The loan is evidenced by an unsecured note which had an original issuance discount of $ 2,500 plus an additional $ 2,500 to pay for transaction fees of the lender, which will be amortized over the life of the note. The loan bears interest at a rate of 9 % and is due and payable on March 9, 2020 and is currently past due. If a default notice is received the interest rate will be 18%. The Company may prepay the loan by paying the lender the outstanding loan principal and accrued interest plus premiums ranging from 5% to 25% and accrued interest. The unpaid principal is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price. The conversion price is 50% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. Due to the variable conversion feature the note conversion feature was bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability. The day one derivative liability was $ 31,581 , of which $ 20,291 was recorded as a day one loss on the derivative liability and an additional $ 11,290 was recorded as a discount on the notes payable. In addition, the note holder was issued 25,000 shares of common stock with a relative fair value of $ 13,710 which was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the note. On February 11, 2021, the Company repaid $ 30,000 in principal, $ 3,854 in accrued interest and $ 11,146 additional interest expense on the convertible note payable.

One consulting agreement was for a twelve month period and expired in March of 2021. 16 We no longer plan to pursue the GSP System.

At September 30, 2021, we have had no revenue and have not yet achieved profitable operations and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying value of short-term instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and short-term notes approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. 18 Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs. The Company utilizes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements, defined as follows: Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value Derivative Financial Instruments Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt under ASC 470, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments under ASC 815. The Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40-35-12 to determine the order in which each convertible instrument would be evaluated for derivative classification. Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Not required. Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Under the direction and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching its desired disclosure control objectives. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021. Our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective due to a lack of segregation of duties and the lack of formal documentation of our control environment. In light of the material weakness described above, we continue to perform additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Additional experienced personnel will be hired in the accounting and finance department, appropriate consultants will be retained, and our accounting system will be upgraded as soon as it becomes economically feasible and sustainable. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. 19 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
