Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The
following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and
2021 should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and the notes to those Financial Statements that are included elsewhere
in this Form 10-K and were prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements
based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual
results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a
number of factors, including those set forth under the “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements” and “Description of Business” sections and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. We use words such as “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,”
“believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “predict,”
and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe the expectations expressed in these forward-looking
statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business, our actual results could differ materially
from those discussed in these statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason
even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
In
the below discussion, “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” and similar terms in this report,
as well as references to “UMED” and “Greenway” all refer to Greenway Technologies, Inc., and our wholly-owned
subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., unless the context requires otherwise.
Greenway
Technologies, Inc. is engaged in the research and development of proprietary gas-to-liquids syngas conversion systems and micro-plants
that can be scaled to meet specific gas field production requirements. The company’s patented and proprietary technologies have
been realized in its first commercial G-Reformer unit, a unique component used to convert natural gas into synthesis gas, which when
combined with a Fischer-Tropsch reactor and catalyst, produces fuels including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and methanol. G-Reformer units
can be deployed to process a variety of natural gas streams including pipeline gas, associated gas, flared gas, vented gas, coal-bed
methane and/or biomass gas. When derived from any of these natural gas sources, the liquid fuels created are incrementally cleaner than
conventionally produced oil-based fuels. Greenway’s objective is to become a material direct and licensed producer of renewable
GTL synthesized diesel and jet fuels, with a near term focus on U.S. market opportunities.
The
Company believes that its proprietary G-Reformer is a major innovation in gas reforming and GTL technology in general. Initial tests
have demonstrated that the Company’s solution appears to be superior to legacy technologies which are more costly, have a larger
footprint and cannot be easily deployed at field sites to process associated gas, stranded gas, coal-bed methane, vented gas, or flared
gas - all markets the Company seeks to service.
On
April 28, 2020, the Company was issued a new U.S. Patent 10,633,594 B1 for syngas generation for gas-to-liquid fuel conversion. The Company
has several other pending patent applications, both domestic and international, related to various components and processes involving
our proprietary GTL methods, which when granted, will further complement our existing portfolio of issued patents and pending patent
applications.
On
December 8, 2020, the Company announced an exclusive worldwide patent licensing agreement with the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA)
for all patent applications currently filed with the Patent and Trademark Office relating to GWTI’s natural gas reforming technologies
developed under its sponsored research agreement with UTA.
- 14 -
On
December 15, 2020, the Company announced additional information regarding valuable outputs produced by the company’s proprietary
G-Reformer™ catalyst reactor and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) technology which combine to form the “Greer-Wright” GTL solution.
Originally developed to convert natural gas into ultra-clean synthetic fuel, recent research and development activity has shown that
the technology can also allow the extraction of high-value chemicals and alcohols. The chemical outputs include n-Hexane, n-Heptane,
n-Octane, n-Decane, n-Dodecane, and n-Tridecane. Alcohols produced include ethanol and methanol. The company has identified worldwide
industrial demand for these outputs which will significantly improve the economic return on investment (ROI) of GTL plants that are based
on GWTI’s technology. GWTI is a development-stage company with plans to continue its unique and patented technology.
In
February 2021, the Company was issued Patent 10,907,104, the fourth patent relating to the company’s proprietary G-Reformer™
technology which allows for the conversion of natural gas into synthesis gas. The newly issued patent extends the methods and details
of generating syngas using the apparatus described in a previously issued patent No. 10,633,594, the company’s third patent. As
described in the patent, methane, oxygen, and steam are continuously injected into the combustion section of the apparatus to generate
carbon monoxide along with unreacted methane and steam. The carbon monoxide, unreacted methane, and steam then enter the catalyst chamber
where these components react to generate syngas. The pressure inside the reaction vessel is controlled at no higher than 5 psig.
Further,
the Company believes its technologies and processes will allow for multiple small-scale GTL plants to be built with substantially lower
up-front and ongoing costs resulting in more profitable results for O&G operators. In addition, the proprietary technology based
around the G-Reformer is unique in that it also allows for transportable (mobile) GTL plants with a much smaller footprint as compared
to legacy large-scale technologies. Greenway is in discussions with a number of oil and gas operators and other interested parties to
license and obtain joint venture or other forms of capital funding to build its first third-party customer gas-to-liquid plant.
Mining
Interest
In
December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”)
land in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of restricted Common A stock. Early indications, from samples taken and processed,
provided reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the 1,440 acres is significant, but only actual
mining and processing will determine the ultimate value which may be realized from this property holding. The Company is currently exploring
strategic options to partner or sell its interest in this acreage, while it focuses on its emerging GTL technology sales and marketing
efforts.
Going
Concern
We
remain dependent on outside sources of funding (debt and/or equity) for continuation of our operations. Our independent registered
public accounting firm issued a going concern qualification in their report dated April 14, 2023, which is included with our
consolidated Financial Statements and raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

1
– Our net loss decreased primarily due to recording a gain on debt settlement of $70,377 and decreases in our operating expenses
of $178,027, (both general and administrative expenses and research and development), from $1,120,901 to $942,874.
2
– Our net cash used in operations in 2022 was less than 2021. The change was primarily due to the recognition of a gain on
debt settlement of $70,377 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $165,877.
3
– The increase in working capital deficit from 2021 to 2022 primarily relates to less cash in 2022 of $35,954, higher accounts
payable and accrued expenses of $101,283, higher accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party of $707,914.
4
– The increase from 2021 to 2022 is based upon the current year net loss.
These
factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The
Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence. Our
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient new cash flows to meet our obligations on
a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and/or ultimately to attain profitable operations. However, there
is no assurance that profitable operations, financing, or sufficient new cash flows will occur in the future.
- 15 -
Our
ability to achieve profitability will depend upon our ability to finance, manufacture, and market/operate GTL units. Our growth is dependent
on attaining profit from our operations and our raising additional capital either through the sale of our Common Stock or borrowing.
There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any equity financing or sell any of our products at a profit. We will be unable to
pay our obligations in the normal course of business or service our debt in a timely manner throughout 2023 without raising additional
debt or equity capital. There can be no assurance that we will raise additional debt or equity capital.
We
are currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include (i) raising new equity capital and/or (ii) issuing additional debt instruments.
The process is ongoing, lengthy and has inherent costs. There can be no assurance that the exploration of these strategic alternatives
will result in any specific action to alleviate our 12-month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.
While
we are attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, our cash position may not be significant enough to support our daily
operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of an offering of our securities. Management believes that the actions
presently being taken to further implement our business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going
concern. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate revenues and in our ability to raise additional funds, we may
not be successful. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our capability to further implement our business plan
and generate revenues.

Total
operating expenses decreased by $178,027 from $1,120,901 in 2021 to $942,874 in 2022.
1
– The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $59,726 in consulting fees and a decrease of $52,507 in salaries. The Company
also had increases related to legal and professional fees of $19,358.
2
– The decrease was related to less activity in 2022 due to lack of sufficient resources and inability to pursue additional R&D related activities.
3
– The increase is based on higher outstanding debt balances throughout the year.
4 – Amortization of discounts on debt instruments that were
executed at various times throughout the current period.
5
– The Company settled a legal matter in 2022.
Net
Loss and Net Loss per Share

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We
do not currently have sufficient working capital to fund our expected future operations. We cannot assure investors that we will be able
to continue our operations without securing additional adequate funding. We had $24,595 in cash, total assets of $27,542, and total liabilities
of $10,765,118 as of December 31, 2022. Total accumulated deficit at December 31, 2022, was ($36,278,869).
Liquidity
is the ability of a company to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet all of its financial obligations. The following table provides

Our
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets
and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our general business strategy is to first develop our GTL
technology to maintain our basic viability, while seeking significant development capital for full commercialization.
As
shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have incurred an accumulated deficit of $36,278,869 and $34,766,177
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Our
ability to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on our ability to
obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations.

Employment
Agreements
In
August 2012, we entered into an employment agreement with Raymond Wright, for the position of president of GIE, for a term of five years
with compensation of $90,000 per year. In September 2014, Mr. Wright’s employment agreement was amended to increase his annual
pay to $180,000. By its terms, Mr. Wright’s employment agreement automatically renewed on August 12, 2020, 2021, and 2022 for a
successive one-year periods. During the twelve-months ended December 31, 2022, we paid and/or accrued a total of $180,000 for this calendar
year under the terms of the agreement. Mr. Wright is also the chairman of our Board of Directors.
- 18 -
Effective
May 10, 2018, we entered into identical employment agreements with John Olynick, as President, and Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer,
respectively. The terms and conditions of their employment agreements were identical. John Olynick elected not to renew his employment
agreement and resigned as President on July 19, 2019. Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer, earns a salary of $120,000 per year.
Mr. Jones also serves as the Company’s Secretary and Treasurer. During each year that Mr. Jones’ agreement is in effect,
he is entitled to receive a bonus (“Bonus”) equal to at least Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) per year, such amount
having been accrued for the period ended December 31, 2022. Both Mr. Olynick and Mr. Jones received a grant of common stock (the “Stock
Grant”) at the start of their employment equal to 250,000 shares each of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.0001 per
share (the “Common Stock”), such shares vesting immediately. Mr. Jones is also entitled to participate in the Company’s
benefit plans when such plans exist. The foregoing summary of Mr. Olynick’s and Mr. Jones’s employment agreement is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the actual true and correct Employment Agreements by and between Mr. Olynick, Mr. Jones and our Company,
dated May 10, 2018, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.39 and 10.40 to this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Mr.
Olynick elected not to renew his employment agreement and resigned as President on July 19, 2019. Upon his resignation, we agreed to
pay the balance of his Employment Agreement then due and owing over time. Accordingly, we accrued $110,084 for the balance of his Employment
Agreement, against which we have paid $35,000, leaving a balance remaining of $75,084 for the year ending December 31, 2022. In addition,
Mr. Olynick had previously entered into a consulting agreement (the “ Olynick Agreement ”) to provide general advisory
services with us on April 18, 2019, and which included terms for payment of billable time at $40.00 per hour, plus approved expenses.
The Olynick Agreement was terminated when Mr. Olynick became President of the Company on May 10, 2018. We have accrued $25,510 in expenses
related to such prior consulting agreement expenses. See Exhibit 10.42 incorporated by reference herein.
Effective
April 1, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Thomas Phillips, Vice President of Operations, for a term of 12 months with
compensation of $120,000 per year. Mr. Phillips reports to the President of GIE. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Phillips is
entitled to a no-cost grant of common stock equal to 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s Rule 144 restricted common stock, par value
$.0001 per share, with such shares having been issued in February 2020. In addition, Mr. Phillips resigned from the Company effective
December 15, 2020. The foregoing summary of the Mr. Phillips’s employment agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the actual true and correct Employment Agreement by and between Thomas Phillips and our Company, dated April 1, 2019, a copy of which
is filed as Exhibit 10.53 to this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Effective
April 1, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Ryan Turner for a term of twelve (12) months with compensation of $80,000

Consulting
Agreements
On
September 7, 2018, Wildcat, a company controlled by Shareholder Marshall Gleason, filed suit against us alleging claims arising from
the Gleason Agreement, seeking to recover monetary damages, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees. In a separate lawsuit,
Wildcat filed suit claiming that the Company breached that certain Promissory Note dated on or about November 13, 2017, entered into
between Wildcat as lender and Greenway as borrower, and as a result Wildcat initiated an action in County Court at Law No. 2 of Tarrant
County, Texas, Cause No. 2018-006416-2. On March 6, 2019, we entered into a Rule 11 Agreement with Gleason settling both disputes, a
copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.52 to this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference. Pursuant to the Rule 11 Agreement, the parties
agreed to abate both cases until the earlier of a default of the performance of the Rule 11 Agreement or October 30, 2019, whichever
be sooner. The Rule 11 Agreement provided that if we timely performed through October 15, 2019, the parties would file a joint motion
for dismissal and present agreed orders of dismissal with prejudice for both lawsuits. The Company performed in all regards under the
Rule 11 Agreement, however Gleason refused to sign the Wildcat Settlement Agreement at the point of the Company’s having performed
its obligations. The parties’ respective counsels then mutually agreed to extend the original October 30, 2019 settlement date
until at least the end of the year while the parties waited for Gleason’s signature. Gleason signed the Compromise Settlement and
Release Agreement on February 4, 2020, and all litigation was dismissed by the Court on February 25, 2020. A copy of the Dismissal is
incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.59.

Paul
Alfano, a director and greater than five percent (5%) shareholder entered into a consulting agreement with us on April 19, 2018 via Alfano
Consulting Services (the “Alfano Agreement”), to provide board and senior management advice, including but not limited to
corporate strategy, SEC regulatory adherence, sales and marketing strategies, document and presentation preparation and fund-raising
support. Terms included payment of billable time at $40.00 per hour, plus approved expenses, retroactive to January 1, 2017. A copy is
available by Exhibit 10.44 incorporated by reference herein. The Alfano Agreement was terminated when Mr. Alfano became a director on
June 26, 2019. The Company has accrued Consulting Fees and Expenses of $120,988 for all prior periods through the year ending December
31, 2021. During 2022, Mr. Alfano and the Company mutually agreed to issues Company shares to Mr. Alfano in full satisfaction of the
$120,988 Consulting Fees and Expenses that were accrued as of December 31, 2021.
On
October 19, 2020, the Company entered into a management consulting services agreement with Dean Goekel (the “Goekel
Agreement” via “Analytical Professionals”), to manage engineering and vendor relationships, assist in defining the
design and cost of certain capital equipment and to manage the direction of research, development and other related engineering
activities. Mr. Goekel will also support the Company’s ongoing business operations, including assistance in commercialization
and market implementation, strategic planning and other services. The agreed upon start date under the agreement is July 1, 2020 and
the minimum engagement term was for six (6) months. After the initial term the agreement automatically renews for subsequent six (6)
month terms unless the Company or Mr. Goekel terminates the agreement. Under the agreement, in exchange for Mr. Goekel’s
services he will receive a minimum monthly fee of $10,000 per month in deferred compensation until such time that adequate funds are
available for payment. As of December 31, 2022, we have accrued $300,000 in compensation expense related to this agreement.
Additionally, under the agreement Mr. Goekel was issued stock warrants for 3,000,000 shares at a strike price of $0.03 per share
effective July 1, 2020 and expiring on June 30, 2022. The Company recognized valued and recognized compensation expense related to
these warrants of $25,137 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Mr. Goekel did not exercise any of the stock warrant prior to June
30, 2022 and the warrants expired unexercised. After meeting certain deliverables set forth in the agreement, Mr. Goekel will be issued stock
warrants for 1,000,000 shares at a strike price that is an average of the stock price for the 90 days that the deliverables have
been met. No such deliverables have been met to date, and currently management does not believe these 1,000,000 warrants will
be earned by the service provider.
Other
Pursuant
to the GIE Acquisition Agreement in August 2012, we agreed to: (i) issue an additional 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock when the first
portable GTL unit is built and becomes operational, and is capable of producing 2,000 barrels of diesel or jet fuel per day, and (ii)
pay a 2% royalty on all gross production sales on each unit placed in production, or one percent (1%) each to the founders and previous
owners of GIE. On February 6, 2018, and in connection with a settlement agreement dated April 5, 2018, by and between the Greer Family
Trust and us, which is the successor in interest one of the founders and prior owners of GIE, F. Conrad Greer (“ Greer ”),
(the “ Trust ”, and such settlement agreement the “ Trust Settlement Agreement ”), we issued 3,000,000
shares of Common Stock and a convertible promissory note for $150,000 to the Trust in exchange for: (i) a termination of the Trust’s
right to receive 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock in the future and 1% of the royalties owed to the Trust under the GIE Acquisition Agreement;
(ii) the termination of Greer’s then current employment agreement with GIE; and (iii) the Trust’s waiver of any future claims
against us for any reason. A copy of the Trust Settlement Agreement and related promissory note dated April 5, 2018, by us in favor of
the Trust is filed as Exhibit 10.36 to this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference herein.
As
a result of the transactions consummated by the Trust Settlement Agreement, we are committed to issue a reduced number of 3,750,000 shares
of Common Stock and 1% of the royalties due on production of our GTL operational units to Ray Wright, the other founder and prior owner
of GIE, pursuant to the GIE Acquisition Agreement.
Mining
Leases

next payment will be due on August 31, 2023.

Seasonality
We
do not anticipate that our business will be affected by seasonal factors.
Impact
of Inflation
While
we are subject to general inflationary trends, including for basic manufacturing production materials, our management believes that inflation
in and of itself does not have a material effect on our operating results. However, inflation may become a factor in the future. However,
the COVID-19 virus and its current extraordinary impact on the world economy has reduced oil consumption globally, decreasing crude oil
prices, to levels not seen since the early 1980’s. The economics of GTL conversion rely in part on the arbitrage between oil and
natural gas prices, with economic models for many producers, including our own models, using a range of $30-60/bbl (for WTI or Brent
Crude as listed daily on the Nymex and ICE commodities exchanges) to determine relative profitability of their GTL operations. While
the COVID-19 virus may run its human course in the near term, we believe (as many others in the U.S. government and media believe), that
the economic impacts will be long lasting and for all practical matters, remain largely unknown at this time.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
During
the year ended December 2019, we entered into a revenue interest research and development venture with Mabert and an employee, Tom Phillips,
OPMGE. However, based on events of default in their agreement with the Company, Mabert no longer has any formal arrangements with OPMGE
or Tom Phillips. Since inception of this arrangement, we have advanced a total of $412,885 to OPMGE. Given the uncertainty of the collectability
of this receivable, the Company has fully reserved for this amount as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our
Financial Statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States
(“ GAAP ”). Preparing our Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application
of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.
- 23 -
We
evaluate our long-lived assets for financial impairment on a regular basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets , ” which evaluates the recoverability of long-lived
assets not held for sale by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated
with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future discounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient
to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values.
We
believe that the critical accounting policies discussed below affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation
of our financial statements.
Use
of Estimates
Preparing
financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those estimates may be material.
Changes
in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other
assumptions, which include both quantitative and qualitative assessments that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Significant
estimates during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, include valuation of stock-based compensation, uncertain tax positions, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
Equity
Method Investment
On
August 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Material Definitive Agreement related to the formation of OPMGE. The Company contributed
a limited license to use its proprietary and patented GTL technology for no actual cost basis in exchange for 42.86% (300 of 700 currently
owned member units) revenue interest in OPMGE, expected to be later reduced to a 30% interest upon the completion of certain expected
third-party investments for the remaining 300 of 1,000 member units available. However, Greenway never transferred the G-Reformer to
OPMGE, as required by the LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT OF OPM GREEN ENERGY, LLC. Accordingly, it defaulted on its obligation under
the agreement. Since the Wharton Plant is owned by Mabert, OPMGE was no longer a viable entity as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
- 24 -
As
of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, there were no assets within OPMGE. Accordingly, the Company’s receivable with this
entity is fully reserved for as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Credit Risk
For
purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less
at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.
At
December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.
The
Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent
account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is $250,000. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, the Company did
not have any cash in excess of the insured FDIC limit.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of our Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP 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 our Financial Statements
and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income tax using the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company
records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not
that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is
recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.
The
Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Using
that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position
will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the Company had
no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
The
Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions in other expense. No interest and penalties related
to uncertain income tax positions were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Research
and Development
The
Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with ASC subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”).
Under
ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development
costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or
as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. Company-sponsored research and development costs related
to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred.
- 25 -
The
Company incurred research and development expenses of $54,275 and $158,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair
value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized
over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions
in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities
in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by
the issuance of those equity instruments.
The
Company uses the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the
fair value of options.
The
fair value of stock-based compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services
is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.
When
determining fair value, the Company considers the following assumptions in the Black-Scholes model:
●
Exercise price,
●
Expected dividends,
●
Expected volatility,
●
Risk-free interest rate; and
●
Expected life of option

Basic
and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share
Pursuant
to ASC 260-10-45, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares
of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common
shares may consist of common stock issuable for stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method), convertible notes and common
stock issuable. These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future.
At
December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, the Company had the following common stock equivalents outstanding, which are potentially dilutive
equity securities:
December 31, 2022
December 31, 2021

Recent
Accounting Standards
Changes
to accounting principles are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU’s”)
to the FASB’s Codification. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASU’s on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, or presentation thereof. Management has evaluated all recent accounting
pronouncements as issued by the FASB in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) through the date these financial
statements were available to be issued and found no recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements,
when adopted, will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
Subsequent
Events
From
January 1, 2023 through April 14, 2023, the Company issued 10,333,333 shares of common stock comprised of: 8,333,333 shares of Rule
144 restricted Common Stock issued in a private placement to three accredited investors at $0.015 - $0.020 per share $160,000 and
2,000,000 shares to our Chief Financial Officer for services rendered, having a fair value of $20,000 ($0.01/share), based upon the
quoted closing trading price.
