Historical Background
We were incorporated in the State of New Jersey on
October 1, 2003 under the name of Creative Beauty Supply of New Jersey Corporation and subsequently changed our name to Gotham Capital
Holdings, Inc. on May 18, 2015. We commenced operations in the beauty supply industry as of January 1, 2004. On November 30, 2007, our
Board of Directors approved a plan to dispose of our wholesale and retail beauty supply business. From January 1, 2009 until July 28,
2017, we had no operations and were a shell company.
On March 16, 2017, our Board of Directors adopted
resolutions, which were approved by shareholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares, to change our name to “IIOT-OXYS,
Inc.”, to authorize a change of domicile from New Jersey to Nevada, to authorize a 2017 Stock Awards Plan, and to approve the Securities
Exchange Agreement (the “ OXYS SEA ”) between the Company and OXYS Corporation (“ OXYS ”), a Nevada
corporation incorporated on August 4, 2016.
Under the terms of the OXYS SEA we acquired 100% of
the issued voting shares of OXYS in exchange for 34,687,244 shares of our Common Stock. We also cancelled 1,500,000 outstanding shares
of our Common Stock and changed our management to Mr. DiBiase who also served in the management of OXYS. Also, one of our principal shareholders
entered into a consulting agreement with OXYS to provide consulting services during the transition. The OXYS SEA was effective on July
28, 2017, and our name was changed to “IIOT-OXYS, Inc.” at that time. Effective October 26, 2017, our domicile was changed
from New Jersey to Nevada.
At the present time, we have two wholly owned subsidiaries
which are OXYS Corporation and HereLab, Inc. (an entity immaterial to our operations), through which our operations are conducted.
General Overview
IIOT-OXYS, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”),
and OXYS, were originally established for the purposes of designing, building, testing, and selling Edge Computing systems for the Industrial
Internet. Both companies were, and presently are, early-stage technology startups that are largely pre-revenue in their development
phase. HereLab (an entity immaterial to our operations) is also an early-stage technology development company. We received
our first revenues in the last quarter of 2017, continued to realize revenues until 2020 when the pandemic hit, and we realized nominal
revenues through 2021 to the present.
We develop hardware, software and algorithms that
monitor, measure and predict conditions for energy, structural, agricultural and medical applications. We use domain-specific Artificial
Intelligence to solve industrial and environmental challenges. Our engineered solutions focus on common sense approaches to machine learning,
algorithm development and hardware and software products.
We use off-the-shelf components, with reconfigurable
hardware architecture that adapts to a wide range of customer needs and applications. We use open-source software tools, while still creating
proprietary content for customers, thereby reducing software development time and cost. The software works with the hardware to collect
data from the equipment or structure that is being monitored.
We focus on developing insights. We develop algorithms
that help our customers create insights from vast data streams. The data collected is analyzed and reports are created for the customer.
From these insights, the customer can act to improve their process, product or structure.

No revenues were earned in Q2 2025 and, thus, revenues
were less than the same period in 2024. Revenue growth for the rest of 2025 will be challenging given the difficulty in raising additional
capital to fuel sales and marketing efforts. Potential future revenue growth depends on our ability to raise said capital and the following
factors:
·
Our DOT Bridge Monitoring Contract ended in December 2023 but we believe our Structural Health Monitoring (“ SHM ”) vertical is the foundation of our future revenue stream. Recent discussions with our main contractor to the DOT revealed that the monitoring program in which we’ve participated in previous years has been suspended with no foreseeable plans to restart the program. Despite this setback, our main contractor has confirmed we can continue to monitor our two sites (at our cost), which will allow us to effectively market our system and services to local municipalities and other state DOTs. We continue to pursue DOT contacts in two other northeast states, but these may not convert to contracts for another year. Projects with local municipalities in our current northeast state also continue to be prospected and may convert to contracts sometime in 2025, as they are based on potential state grants and not dependent on state or municipal budget cycles.
·
Our Smart Manufacturing vertical is another potential source of future revenue based on the strong use case developed from our CNC POC and SaaS contracts in previous years. Although the SaaS contract ended in May 2024, the tool cost savings exceeded our projections and our customer’s expectations. This previous customer will continue to endorse our capabilities and services, including promotional video material previously released and pending. We believe their endorsement and promotional videos are valuable collateral to prospect future Smart Manufacturing CNC business. Additional POCs for other discrete manufacturing processes, including metal stamping, plastic injection molding, plastic extrusion, and automated assembly and test are also potential avenues of future revenue streams.
·
We believe our strategic partnership continues to be our greatest asset. The strength of our Aingura IIoT, S.L. partnership provides supplemental expertise, equipment and software, which ensures our ability to bring value to our prospective customers. Their recent successes in expanding their minimally invasive monitoring and predictive algorithms into heavy industrial equipment applications bodes well for additional U.S. collaborations with us.
Despite these positive factors, we continue to face
significant headwinds and we have not been able to raise material funds for ongoing operations through our existing financing agreements
due to market conditions. Our CEO and COO have received negligible compensation and have accrued almost all compensation since mid-April
2023 and the lack of funds has severely limited sales and marketing efforts. Our management continues to secure limited funding from our
lead investor to pay for ongoing expenses and our leadership team is considering our options for both the short and long term. Given the
current challenges in raising adequate funds, management is pursuing options including vetting suitable companies to merge with or acquire
us.
We believe we’ve created valuable assets from
our business development in these industries, which are strong in both their size and growth. The global smart manufacturing (also known
as Industry 4.0) was 233.3 billion in 2024 and will reach $479 billion by 2029 (CAGR 15.5%), and the worldwide SHM industry is $2.5 billion
in 2024 and will reach $4.1 billion by 2029 (CAGR of 10.4%).
Given the valuable real-world data we have collected,
our Artificial Intelligence (“ AI ”) Machine Learning algorithms we have developed, strong use cases and marketing collateral
developed from our data and algorithms, combined with our prudent operational execution, we believe our company’s assets have potential
future revenue growth, that will be attractive to prospective partners interested in an acquisition or merger.
Liquidity and Capital Resources for the Six
Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
At June 30, 2025, we reported a cash balance of
$41,047 as a result of an increase of $17,454 from $23,593 cash balance at December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily as a
result of net cash provided by sale of Series C and Series D convertible preferred stock of $141,000, offset by cash used by
operating activities of 112,726 and cash payment of $10,820 in offering costs.
34
Operating Activities
Net cash flows used in
operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $112,726, primarily attributed to the net loss of $230,724, stock compensation
expense of $2,529, amortization of intangible assets of $24,546, amortization of debt discount on Series C & D convertible preferred
stock of $33,000, gain on change in the fair value of derivative liability of $228,311, and net decrease in operating assets and liabilities
of $286,234. The Company recorded changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily attributable to decrease in prepaids and other
current assets of $2,139, decrease in accounts payable of $47,467, increase in accrued liabilities of $85,475, decrease in derivative
liabilities of $167,459, and increase in salaries payable to related parties of $78,628.
Net cash
flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $9,982, primarily attributed to the net loss of $647,381,
amortization of intangible assets of $24,682, and net increase in operating assets and liabilities of $612,717. The Company recorded changes
in operating assets and liabilities primarily attributable to decrease in accounts receivable of $5,460, increase in accounts payable
of $41,937, increase in accrued liabilities of $90,084, increase in derivative liabilities of $407,117, increase in shares payable to
related parties of $1,148, and increase in salaries payable to related parties of $66,971.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $0.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $130,180, due to cash received from sale of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock
of $141,000, net of cash payments of offering costs of $10,820.
Net
cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $17,600 due to cash received of $20,000 from equity financing
of convertible preferred stock, net of cash payment of $2,400 in fees paid in connection with the capital raise.
As a result of the above
activities, the Company recorded an increase in cash of $17,454 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and an increase in cash of $7,618
for the three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
The accompanying condensed unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the
accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered continuing operating losses, has a working capital deficit of
$2,763,666, net loss incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2025 of $230,724, net cash used in operating activities of $112,726,
and has an accumulated deficit of $11,438,976 as of June 30, 2025. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to
cease operations. The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements
that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity capital expenditures or capital resources.
