(“Rainmaker” or the “Company” or “RAKR”) is a Nevada company which operates Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (“RWI”) with its head office in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The Company distributes two main types of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing technologies: (1) Air-to-Water (“AW”), which harvests fresh water from humidity in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water (“WW”), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technology can be wind, solar, or use conventional power sources (grid or generator), is deployable anywhere, and leaves no carbon trace if renewable resources are deployed. Rainmaker holds a 12 % interest in Rainmaker Holland B.V. (“RHBV”) which consists of the innovation and manufacturing center located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. RAKR will purchase equipment on a favorable cost-plus formula. Reverse Merger RWI was incorporated on July 21, 2014 under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) among the Company, RWI and RWI’s 45 shareholders. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562 common shares in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 66,818,759 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, or 7.4 shares for each share of RWI. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company’s former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. (“CJT”) was changed on April 24, 2017 in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the transaction. As part of the merger, net liabilities of $ 235,495 were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. As a result of the Merger the Company originally traded on the OTC Pink Sheet under the trading symbol RAKR but since then become an SEC filing company and was up-listed to the OTCQB in 2022. The Company has temporarily been relegated to the OCT Pink due to share price. The Company is working on mechanisms to cure that issue. In the meantime, shareholders remain able to trade the stock. 8 Joint Development Agreement On July 28, 2022, the Company signed a Joint Development Agreement (“JDA”) with Miranda Environmental and Water Treatment Technologies, Energy, Natural Resources, Engineering, Consulting, Construction and Commerce Inc. (“Miranda”) whose primary operations reside in Ankara, Turkey. This JDA allows for reciprocal distribution rights for all of RAKR’s and Miranda’s combined technologies and fosters a long-term technological integration strategy between the two companies. The first result of this JDA was achieved in May of 2023 with a purchase order from Turks and Caicos. Subsequent to the quarter end, on October 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with Miranda to formalize the mutual intention to integrate the two firms at both strategic and operating levels. This is a non-binding agreement allowing for standard due diligence to take place before the creation of, and, agreement to definitive agreements. The MOU has now been converted to a Term Sheet with a pathway to closing in the coming weeks. There can be no assurance that the parties will reach a definitive agreement. Going Concern The Company has incurred continuing losses from its operations and has an accumulated deficit of $ 73,276,539 . There are no assurances the Company will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms or that cash flows generated from its operations will be sufficient to meet its current operating costs and required debt service. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its business, which could harm its financial condition and operating results. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue ongoing operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The Company’s ability to continue its operations and to pay its obligations when they become due is contingent upon the Company obtaining additional financing. Management’s plans include seeking to procure additional funds through debt and equity financings to enable it to meet its operating needs including current and future sales orders. In addition, revenues are being forecasted at the operational level. Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Preparation The consolidated financial statements presented are for the entity Rainmaker and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) as a consolidated entity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All accounting policies are chosen to ensure the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability. Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. The financial statements of the subsidiary located outside of the United States is measured in its functional currency: Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) reports in Canadian dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities of this subsidiary are translated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated using average annual exchange rates. Non-monetary assets are translated at their historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. 9 Intangible Assets No Intangible Assets. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Depreciation is provided at rates estimated to write off the cost of the relevant assets less their estimated residual values by equal annual amounts over their expected useful lives. Residual values and expected useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Depreciation periods for the Company’s property and equipment are as follows: Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives of Property and Equipment Leasehold Improvements – lesser of 10 years or lease duration Manufacturing Equipment – 5 years Office Furniture & Equipment – 5 years Demonstration Equipment – 10 years Intellectual Property – 14 years Computer Software – 5 years Embedded Conversion Features Until December 31, 2021, the Company evaluated embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature did not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument was evaluated under ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options for consideration of any beneficial conversion features. On January 1, 2022 the Company adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method and reviewed and calculated the impact on the outstanding financial instruments as of this adoption date concluding there was no impact. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount The Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may be paid in the form of cash, or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. Demonstration Equipment Demonstration equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Depreciation for the demonstration equipment is at a rate estimated to write off the cost of the equipment less its estimated residual value by an equal annual amount over its expected useful life. The residual value and expected useful life of the demonstration equipment is reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard update (‘ASU”), 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the modified retrospective method, and the Company determined the new guidance does not change the Company’s policy of revenue recognition. 10 The Company has multiple sources of revenue. The first is through the direct sales of water production and purification systems. A contract with a customer is established once an agreement is signed and the initial down payment is received. Each transaction price is established in the signed contract. Unearned revenue is recognized upon receipt of the down payment for the system. The revenue is recognized once title of the system transfers to the customer. The nature of the business of equipment sales implies there is only one performance obligation which is delivery of the end product to the customer. Our contracts outline each party’s rights and obligations including the terms and timing of payments. Another source of revenue is in exchange for operating, maintenance and professional services to these joint ventures. That revenue is recognized in the period it is earned. In June 2018, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the revenue recognition and measurement issues for grants, contracts, and similar arrangements, ASU Topic 958. Government grants and contracts are agreements that generally provide cost reimbursement for certain types of expenditures in return for research and development activities over a contractually defined period. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue from grants and contracts in the period during which the related costs are incurred, provided that the conditions under which the grants and contracts were provided have been met and only perfunctory performance obligations are outstanding. Related Party Transactions Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to directly or indirectly control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Related party transactions that are in the normal course of business and have commercial substance are measured at the exchange amount. Share-based Payment Expense The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for stock awards granted to employees, directors, officers, and consultants. Share-based awards to employees are measured at the fair value of the related share-based awards. Share-based payments to others are valued based on the related services rendered or goods received or if this cannot be reliably measured, on the fair value of the instruments issued. Issuances of shares are valued using the fair value of the shares at the time of grant; issuances of options are valued using the Black-Scholes model with assumptions based on historical experience and future expectations. Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for as debt or equity according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Marketing, Advertising and Promotional Costs As required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States, the Company records marketing costs as an expense in the year to which such costs relate. The Company does not defer amounts on its year-end consolidated balance sheets with respect to marketing costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Segment Reporting ASC 280-10, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has reportable segments in the United States and Canada. Schedule of Segment Reporting 2023 2022 March 31, 2023 2022 Gross Profit United States - - Canada - - Gross Profit $ - $ - Net Income (Loss) United States ( 441,875 ) ( 209,724 ) Canada - - Net Loss $ ( 441,875 ) $ ( 209,724 ) Assets United States 39,152 341,661 Canada 415 123 $ 39,567 $ 341,784 11 Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States 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 the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the year. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates. Loss per Share The Company reports loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the year. The Company has options, debentures and other potentially dilutive instruments extending to the latest date of July 1, 2027 . Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. Income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted by the date of the statement of financial position. Equity-Settled Transactions The costs of equity-settled transactions with employees are measured by reference to the fair value at the date on which they are granted. The costs of equity-settled transactions are recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (“the vesting date”). The cumulative expense is recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profit or loss charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period and the corresponding amount is represented in share-based compensation reserve. 12 No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition, which are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market condition is satisfied provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement or is beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification. Inventory Inventory and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The production cost of inventory includes an appropriate proportion of depreciation and production overheads based the ratio of indirect vs. direct costs. Cost is determined on the following bases: Raw materials and consumables are valued at cost on a first in, first out (FIFO) basis; finished products are valued at raw material cost, labor cost and a proportion of manufacturing overhead expenses. Financial Instruments ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in the circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no such transfers during the periods being reported. Customer Concentration Due to the infancy of the Company’s market penetration, current sales are concentrated on a limited number of customers. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. Cash balances are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”) up to CAD 100,000 per commercial bank. From time to time, cash in deposit accounts may exceed the insurance limits thus the excess would be at risk of loss. For purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had no cash equivalents. Customer Deposits The typical arrangement for customer deposits for purchases of Company products is 50 % down at the time of ordering. The Company records the deposit as a current liability reflecting the obligation to provide the goods or services to the customer or to return the money. When the Company earns the deposit amount, the current liability will be debited, and sales revenues will be credited. 13 Note 3: Convertible Notes Payable The Convertible Notes Payable are defined below.

Note 4: Derivative Liabilities Derivative liabilities – Convertible Notes In Q3, 2022, the convertible debt issued February 7, 2022, March 11, 2022, and July 26, 2022 became eligible for conversion on August 6, 2022, September 7, 2022 and December 25, 2022 respectively. The Company engaged a third-party consultant to determine the fair value of the convertible notes at the end of each quarter. The subsequent evaluation determined that the notes should be accounted for as derivative liabilities upon the date they became convertible due to the variable conversion price included in each note based on Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance. The derivative component of the obligation is initially valued and classified as a derivative liability with an offset to discounts on convertible debt. Discounts have been amortized to interest expense over the respective terms of the related notes. Since the issuances of the convertible notes mentioned above, three more convertible notes were issued (as discussed in Note 3) for a total of seven of which four are fully converted and debt discount fully amortized. The total derivative liabilities associated with these notes eligible for conversion at March 31, 2023 was $ 490,351 and $ 0 at March 31, 2022. The Company’s debt discount relating to these convertible notes amounted to $ 255,729 at March 31, 2023 and the Company recorded interest expense for the amortization of the discount in the amount of $ 95,488 at March 31, 2023. The Company recorded a change in the value of embedded derivative liabilities expense of $ 5,273 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. On July 26, 2022, due to the tainted equity environment, existing convertible notes required derivative treatment. The convertible note in the amount of $ 8,200 and the convertible note in the amount of $ 3,105,896.72 (discussed in Note 3) had an initial debt discount of $ 397,542 , loss on initial derivative of $ 126,888 and a derivative liability of $ 524,330 . At March 31, 2023, the derivative liability value of these notes was $ 481,372 , of which is included in the $ 490,351 total discussed in the previous paragraph, and which represents an increase in fair value of $ 99,708 since December 31, 2022. On March 31, 2022, this situation did not exist. Derivative liabilities – Warrants Due to the tainted equity environment at July 26, 2022, the Company recognized derivative liability for existing warrants in the amount of $ 273,679 . On December 31, 2022, a gain on derivative liabilities was recognized in the amount of $ 229,355 leaving a fair value at December 31, 2022 of $ 44,324 for warrants. On March 31, 2023, a gain on derivative liabilities was recognized in the amount of $ 40,978 leaving a fair value of $ 3,346 for warrants at March 31, 2023. Schedule of Derivative Liabilities and Fair Value Derivative liabilities (fair value) Beginning Balance $ 502,611 Change due to Issuances 38,787 Change due to Conversions ( 111,704 ) Mark-to-market 64,003 Ending Balance $ 493,697 Note 5: Notes Payable, Related Parties Promissory notes dated November 6, 2016 with a principal amount of $ 13,516 are due and bear interest of 5 % and are payable on demand. Accrued interest to March 31, 2023 on these notes is $ 4,959 . In 2017 compensation was due to members of the executive management team in the amount of $ 312,000 . In support of the growth of the Company, those executive team members agreed to defer receipt of payment by converting into loans that bear interest of 4 %. $ 60,000 principal and accrued interest remains. 15 During 2021, a related party loaned the Company, on a short-term basis, $ 21,903 . This amount was fully repaid in Q1, 2022. This related party will, from time to time, as necessary, lend the Company money on a short-term basis without charging interest. As of March 31, 2023, the Company owes this party $ 10,081 . Note 6: Other Loans Payable On February 2, 2021, the company entered into a short-term loan agreement in the amount of $ 50,000 at an annual interest rate of 5 % and due February 1, 2022 . It was agreed to extend the due date to February 2, 2023. By mutual agreement, the note was extended for an additional term of six months and therefore now expiring August 2, 2023 . The terms and conditions remained the same with the exception of a change in the interest rate from 5 % to 12 %. Note 7: Intellectual Property As of the filing, the Company holds no intellectual property. Note 8: Property and Equipment Demonstration Equipment The Company may have demonstration equipment to allow it to show a working version of its technology and equipment to customers and organizations in the future. Demonstration equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognized impairment loss. Cost would include the original purchase price of the asset and any costs attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended useful life. Depreciation for the demonstration equipment would be at a rate estimated to write off the cost of the equipment less its estimated residual value by an equal annual amount over its expected useful life. The residual value and expected useful life of the demonstration equipment is reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The Company does not currently have any demonstration equipment but could have in the future. Note 9: Common Stock Common Stock As at December 31, 2021, the Company had authorized 200,000,000 common stock with $ 0.001 par value with 144,354,957 shares issued and outstanding.

Note 11: Commitments and Contingencies In the ordinary course of operating the Company’s business, it may, from time to time, be subject to various claims or possible claims. Management’s view that there are no claims or possible claims that if resolved would either individually or collectively result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. These matters are inherently uncertain, and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. 17 On April 27, 2018, the Company located a judgement dated August 8, 2016 against six Defendants including a former subsidiary of the Company as well as a predecessor of the Company as currently named and constituted. The amount of the judgement including costs is $ 4,423,910 . An appeal was filed on November 9, 2016 by the previous management. A decision on the appeal was rendered on June 22, 2018 and the original judgement was upheld. As a result, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $ 4,423,910 as of March 31, 2023 (2022: $ 4,423,910 ). The Company, since its last report, has not been contacted by the Plaintiff. Note 12: Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is recorded at standard cost, which approximates actual cost, on the first-in first-out basis. The Company, at this time, holds no inventory but may in the future. Note 13: Leases The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. There are no lease related assets and liabilities recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the Company has no lease expenses. Note 14: Stock Options In order to compensate members of the board and executives, the following stock options have been granted, vesting as described. ● Effective July 1, 2022, the Company granted 1,500,000 options as compensation to the newly filled position, VP Sales and 2,500,000 to the newly filled position, Executive VP Finance. 640,000 and 500,000 options respectively vested immediately and the remaining options vest over one year, with a term of 5 years and exercisable at $ 0.10 per Share. ● For the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a stock option expense of $ 136,492 . The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of stock-based awards under ASC 718. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded stock option expense of $ 34,737 .

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. This method requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s deferred tax assets relate to net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards that were derived from operating losses and stock-based compensation from prior years. A full valuation allowance has been applied to the Company’s deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if the Company determines it is more likely than not that the related deferred income tax assets will be realized. At March 31, 2023, the Company had federal net operating loss carry-forwards, which are available to offset future taxable income, of $ 5,693,491 . The Company’s NOL carry-forwards can be carried forward to offset future taxable income for a period of 20 years for each tax year’s loss. These NOL carry-forwards begin to expire in 2037. No provision was made for federal income taxes as the Company has significant NOLs in the United States and Canada. All of the Company’s income tax years remained open for examination by taxing authorities .

On May 8, 2023 the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $ 21,000 bearing interest of 12 % per annum with a maturity date of one year ( May 8, 2024 ) and has the option to convert into shares of Common Stock any time beginning 180 days following the date of the Note and ending on the maturity date . Conversion price is calculated at 61 % of the Market Price (lowest trading price during the 20-trading day period). The Company has the right to prepay any time before maturity. On April 1, 2023, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, RWI (Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario), completed the issuance of 13,544,343 shares to an investor representing 60 % of the outstanding shares of RWI. As a result, the investor will take over management of RWI, and the Company will retain a 40 % ownership interest in RWI. This transaction was completed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 19 Item 2.

RAKR retains access to the technology based on a cost-plus formula. Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (Ontario) (“RWI”), an Ontario Corporation, was formed in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada on July 21, 2014, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act to finance and commercialize patented technology and to consolidate the assets, intellectual property, and executive management expertise of Dutch Rainmaker B.V. (“DRM”). RWI is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. DRM was originally started by Piet Oosterling as a technology company focused on delivering decentralized water solutions to water scarce regions in the world. In his lifetime, Mr. Oosterling wrote and commercialized over 400 patents. His wealth of knowledge and expertise continues to inspire and guide the Company’s executive management team and policy, our distribution partners, and RHBV. On July 3, 2017, RWI shareholders completed a share exchange with the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated June 28, 2017 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) among the Company, RWI and RWI’s 45 shareholders at the time. Upon completion of the Merger, and in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired an aggregate of 9,029,562 common shares of stock in the capital of RWI from the RWI Shareholders (being all the issued and outstanding shares of RWI) in exchange for an aggregate of 66,818,759 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, or 7.4 shares for each share of RWI. Therefore, RWI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective July 3, 2017. The Company’s former name, Gold and Silver Mining of Nevada, Inc. (“CJT”) was changed on April 24, 2017, in expectation of and conditional upon completion of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with RWI considered the accounting acquirer since the former RWI shareholders remained in control of the combined entity after the consummation of the transaction. As part of the Merger, net liabilities of $235,495 were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. On July 15, 2020, Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ: ANY) announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which it would have acquired all the outstanding securities of Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. Upon closing, Sphere 3D’s name would have changed to Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. Rainmaker management would have assumed operational leadership of the combined entity. The transaction was subject to completion of an equity financing, or series of financings, for a minimum of US$15 million at a share price to be mutually agreed prior to closing and such other customary regulatory and shareholder approvals, including the approval of NASDAQ. Closing was originally expected to occur prior to December 31, 2020, but was subject to extension to February 28, 2021, under certain circumstances if mutually agreed by the parties. As part of this process, Sphere 3D agreed to advance US$1.85 million to Rainmaker by way of a secured convertible note for Rainmaker to sustain multiple growth initiatives. The funds were used to fulfil recent contracts and expand its equipment production capacity. This note remains payable and is presented in RAKR’s financial statements. Due to various transactional and regulatory complications the agreement was ultimately terminated on February 12, 2021 and was subsequently announced publicly. As a result of the incomplete Sphere 3D transaction, on March 31, 2021, the Company, including RWI, entered a business agreement with RHBV, DRM and Wind en Water Technologie Holding B.V. (“WWT”). These companies were considered related parties on that date by virtue of stock ownership exceeding 10%. The parties agreed to an exchange of contractual obligations, debt owed, and shares of common stock in full settlement of all obligations among the parties. The resultant Financial Statements, in accordance with ASC 205-20-45-1E, reflect the impact of these exchanges to the Company. The Company and RHBV decided to restructure in order to optimize business operations and broaden access to the capital markets. The Company and RHBV, as mutual shareholders in each other’s company, continue to pursue the mission and objective of providing low-cost water to communities and commercial entities in need of water solutions. 20 The Company has its head office based in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The Company utilizes two main types of products that it produces: energy-efficient, fresh water-producing/purification technologies: (1) Air-to-Water (“AW”), which harvests fresh water from humidity and heat in the atmosphere, and (2) Water-to-Water (“WW”), which transforms seawater or polluted water into drinking water. The technologies can be wind driven, solar based, or can use conventional power sources, such as grid or generator. It is deployable anywhere and leaves no carbon trace if renewable resources are deployed. The Company also distributes complementary technology through Joint Development Agreements. The Company is pursuing projects in Turks and Caicos and other Caribbean countries. In the Caribbean and Central America, locations have been identified and operating plans defined. The Company has generated limited revenue up until the present time, and its operations for the past four years have been typically focused on business development, market research, technology research and development activities. The Company, on a consolidated basis, had total assets of $43,038, as of December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, net assets were $39,567. At present, the Company executes consulting agreements with experienced executive personnel and senior advisors. Sales are heavily driven by independent distributors and project developers. The Company had no revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and no revenue the year ended December 31, 2022 and had net losses of $441,875 and $209,724 for the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The losses incurred to March 31, 2023, consist of general and administrative expenses (41%) and interest expense, amortization of debt discount and change in derivative liabilities net of other income (59%). The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operating activities and has limited resources or revenues to cover its operating costs. The Company’s auditor’s report for 2022 stated that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Products and Services Overview Across the world, fresh water is unevenly distributed. Many regions are desperately under-served, including North Africa, the Middle East, India, Mexico, large portions of South America, and various island geographies. Fundamentally, the solutions are based on deploying technology with the following attributes to ensure low-cost delivery and Company profitability: ● Versatile ● Scalable & Cost-effective ● Environmentally & Socially Sustainable ● Applying Proprietary Technology through partners and affiliates Air-to-Water (AW) – Harvests fresh water from airborne humidity by using advanced heating and cooling technologies. Water-to-Water (WW) – Transforms contaminated water (saltwater, sewage, polluted) into safe, clean water by using an environmentally sustainable process called Multi-Effect Membrane Distillation. The operating efficiency of these technologies allows us to provide customers with clean water at a price that is highly competitive relative to traditional alternatives. We substantially out-perform peer competitors because we can deploy remotely where the water is consumed where the water is consumed and using up to 50% less power than those same competitors. The compact and scalable systems for AW and WW enable decentralized deployment, in which water is distributed directly to the consumption site with no expensive piping or truck transport. AW and WW are both cost-effective technology solutions and can be powered by solar, wind, or grid electricity, or a combination of power sources. They can produce roughly 5,000 to 150,000 liters of water per unit, per day, depending on the local conditions and the type of unit deployed. Cost Information The relevant Cost Information is the cost per liter of alternative suppliers. Currently in remote locations, the principal source of supply is bottled water. Accordingly, our solutions are optimally profitable when we compete head-to-head with bottled water that is transported or bulk water that is transported by truck to local communities. In most remote communities where this water is imported, the minimum cost per liter is US$0.30 reaching as high as US$2.00, according to our market research. The Company’s fully amortized cost of water per liter allows us to compete profitably to generate corporate value beneficial to our shareholders. 21 Market Opportunity In the past ten years, there has been a growing awareness of the shortage of fresh water—and the associated economic and social effects the problem magnifies in impoverished and underdeveloped communities. Entities ranging from Water.Org to the United Nations (access to safe drinking water represents #6 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals articulated by the United Nations) are at the forefront of driving international policy momentum and prospects for multilateral cooperation in the realms of global governance and public-private co-regulation. Common to these efforts is the search for scalable and practical solutions that possess applications uniquely suited to the problem of shortage. The metrics that underpin the international need for ingenuity and action are the same as those that animate and sustain the market opportunity for our Company: (1) Less than 3% of the world’s water is fresh – the rest is seawater and undrinkable in its current state. (2) Of this 3%, over 2.5% is frozen and locked up in Antarctica, the Arctic and glaciers. (3) People and animals rely on 0.5% of the world’s water. (Source: Unwater.org - Facts and Trends: Water) Moreover, at any moment, the atmosphere contains approximately 37.5 million billion gallons of water. This potential is not currently harvested by the means of private organizations or government institutions and thus presents a significant opportunity for AW technology to satisfy worldwide demand for water. The World Health Organization estimates that 50 liters of water per day is required per individual to meet basic needs. It is estimated by the OECD that by 2030 nearly half of humanity will be living in a condition of severe water stress. Currently, according to UNICEF, 2.2 billion people around the globe lack safe drinking water. While high-income countries only treat 70% of wastewater, low-income countries treat 8%. With the world’s population expected to reach 9 billion by 2038, the global need is indisputably high. Much of the population expansion is or will be in the very areas that are already suffering from the problem of water scarcity. The above analysis points to a global market for water that is extraordinarily immense. Today, the annual global water market for all purposes and uses is $650 billion and is expected to expand to $1 trillion by 2025. (Source: RobecoSAM Study (2015, June). Water: the market of the future). Applying RAKR’s approach against the purposes and uses defined above, our solutions are tailored to meet roughly 70% of that global level of demand. Suppliers As stated previously, our principal supplier for the core technologies to be deployed is RHBV. RHBV in turn has built a global supply chain for its components. Should RHBV not supply the appropriate scale of technology required by a project, RAKR has identified multiple technologies of different sizes and types. Supplemental technology (i.e., bottling, pre-post wastewater treatment, mineralization solutions, and renewable energy) – suppliers are global, abundant, and highly competitive so as to ensure the lowest cost per liter for any given project planned implemented by the Company. The Company is pursuing projects as a distributor of supplementary products based on Joint Development Agreements. Competition The Rainmaker business model that will deliver potable water at the source of demand is uniquely positioned to address alternative competitive models. We believe that competitive models, while relevant and plausible alternatives, will not ultimately fully support the global level of demand for water at a reasonable price per liter. By virtue of our current affiliations, we believe we have a cost per liter competitive advantage. Accordingly, on a global basis, we do not believe competitive conditions will thwart our ability to produce long-term, corporate value or significantly diminish our financial results in the near term. However, other companies with sufficiently greater resources may develop competing products and have an advantage over us based on the relative size. Results of Operations for the Three Months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 Revenue Revenue was $0 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2022. 22 General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses primarily include consultant expenses and benefit costs and stock-based compensation expense for executive consultants, outside legal and professional services, marketing and advertising, and facilities costs. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, Increase (Decrease) 2023 2022 $ % General and administrative expense $ 181,769 $ 146,997 $ 34,772 23.7 % Stock-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expense $ 34,737 $ 22,335 $ 12,402 55.5 % General and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased $34,772, or 23.7%, compared to the same period in 2022. This increase primarily relates to (1) an increase of $59,250 in consulting fees, (2) marketing, advertising and promotion expense increased by approximately $484, (3) stock option expense increased by approximately $12,402 and (5) general and administrative expenses increased approximately $34,772. Excluding stock-based compensation, general and administrative expenses increased $22,370. Liquidity and Capital Resources Management’s Plans Similar to other development stage companies, our products have yet to generate significant revenue. As a result, we have historically suffered recurring losses and we do not have required cash resources to fully execute our business plans. Historically, the Company’s major sources of cash have comprised proceeds from various private offerings of its securities (including common stock) and debt financings. From 2015 through to the date of this filing, the Company raised approximately $8.05 million in gross proceeds from various private offerings of our common stock and convertible debt. These funds were raised during various stages of the company and allowed us first to develop a commercial ready product and as soon as logistics and supply chains allow, deliver these products into identified projects and begin to generate revenue. The Company has sustained losses from operations in each fiscal year since our inception, and we expect losses to continue for the indefinite future. As of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $73 million and $71 million, respectively, and stockholders’ equity of approximately $(10.5) million and $(9.1) million, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $1,400 in cash. The Company recognizes and is addressing the need to raise additional capital in order to continue to execute its business plan in the future. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed or that the Company will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to it or whether the Company will become profitable and generate positive operating cash flow. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of March 31, 2023, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements. Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if: ● it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and ● changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have material impact in our results of operations or financial condition. While we base our estimates and judgments on our experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material. The most significant estimates impact the following transactions or account balances: stock compensation. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our significant accounting policies. 23 Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective or Adopted Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material impact on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Not applicable. Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, as of December 31, 2022, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer also concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2023, based on those criteria. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have identified the following material weaknesses: 1. As of March 31, 2023, due to the inherent issue of segregation of duties in a small company, we have relied heavily on entity or management review controls. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. 2. As of March 31, 2023, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification, and authorization of related party transactions. 3. During the 2022 audit, it was necessary to record adjusting journal entries. Management has determined that the effects of the corrected misstatements are material, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements as a whole. The corrected misstatements or the matters underlying them could potentially cause future period financial statements to be materially misstated, even though, in the judgment of our auditor previously, such corrected misstatements are material to the financial statements under audit. Professional standards define an audit adjustment as a proposed correction of the financial statements that, in the judgment of our auditor previously, may not have been detected except through the auditing procedures. An audit adjustment may or may not indicate matters that could have a significant effect on the Company’s financial reporting process (that is, cause future financial statements to be materially misstated). In the judgment of our auditor previously, the adjustments proposed indicate matters that could have a significant effect on the Company’s financial reporting process. Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023, based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the COSO. 24 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls Our management, including our CEO and EVP Finance, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. PART II — OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings The Company is not currently in any legal proceedings. Item 1A. Risk Factors Investing in our common stock involves risks. Each of these risks as well as other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and cause the value of our common shares to decline, which may result in the loss of part or all of your investment. There has been no change since filing the 2022 fourth quarter 10-Q. Item 2.
