AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022
(Unaudited)
1.
BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Malachite Innovations, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”,
“us”, “our” or “Malachite”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 29, 2007. Malachite is
a public company dedicated to improving the health and wellness of people and the planet through a novel and innovative approach to impact
investing. Malachite owns and operates several complementary operating businesses focused on developing long-term solutions to environmental,
social, and health challenges, with a particular focus on economically disadvantaged communities. Malachite takes an opportunistic approach
to impact investing by leveraging its competitive advantages and looking at solving old problems in new ways. Malachite seeks to thoughtfully
allocate its capital into strategic opportunities that are expected to make a positive impact on the people-planet ecosystem and generate
strong investment returns for our shareholders.
Originally founded in 2007 as Legend Mining Inc., the Company began operations
as a mineral extraction exploration business focused on Canadian gold reserves, but failed to secure any mineral reserves to execute its
strategy. In 2011, the Company changed its name to Stevia First Corp., relocated its operations to California, and pursued a new strategy
focused on developing stevia-based sweetener additives for the food and beverage industry by using a novel glycosylation process it developed
to chemically attach glucose molecules to stevia molecules. In 2015, due a lack of commercial viability of its glycosylated stevia product,
the Company changed its name to Vitality Biopharma, Inc. and used the same glycosylation process to develop non-psychoactive glycosylated
cannabinoids for the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract.
In October 2021, the Company changed its name to Malachite Innovations,
Inc. and created two wholly-owned operating subsidiaries: (i) Graphium Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Graphium”),
into which the Company contributed all of its drug development assets; and (ii) Daedalus Ecosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Daedalus”)
which was formed to serve as a holding company for the Company’s future impact investing operating businesses.
I n May 2022, Daedalus acquired Range
Environmental Resources, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Range Environmental”), and Range Natural Resources, Inc., a West
Virginia corporation (“Range Natural” and together with Range Environmental, the “Range Reclamation Entities”).
The Range Reclamation Entities provide land reclamation, water restoration and environmental consulting services to mining and non-mining
customers throughout the Appalachian region with the goal of returning land to pre-mining conditions or repurposing the land for natural,
commercial, agricultural or recreational use. The Range Reclamation Entities’ water restoration services seek to improve rivers,
streams and discharges through novel and innovative treatment applications to help customers meet their various regulatory standards and
requirements. The Range Reclamation Entities also provide environmental consulting services to customers typically in connection with
land reclamation and water restoration projects and as an additional value-add service, sells water treatment chemicals manufactured by
third parties to their customers. Range Natural also provides resource mining services for customers incidental to the reclamation and
repurposing of mine sites. In August 2023, the Company acquired Collins Building & Contracting, Inc., a West Virginia corporation
(“Collins Building”). Collins Building is an environmental services business that primarily focuses on the reclamation of
abandoned mine land sites in West Virginia.

Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement
of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the nine
months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded net income of $ 3,214,077 and the Company’s operating activities provided
$ 1,074,719 of cash. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company maintaining profitable operations in the future and/or
raising additional capital to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.
The Company estimates, as of September 30, 2023, that it has sufficient funds to operate the business for 12 months given its cash balance
of $ 1,026,286 , line of credit availability of $ 100,000 , and revenues being generated by the Range Reclamation Entities. Although the
Company’s existing cash balances are estimated to be sufficient to fund its currently planned level of operations, the Company
is actively seeking additional financing and other sources of capital to accelerate the funding and execution of its growth strategy
and value creation plan. However, these estimates could change if the Company encounters unanticipated difficulties, or if its estimates
of the amount of cash necessary to operate its business prove to be wrong, and the Company uses its available financial resources faster
than it currently expects. No assurance can be given that any future financing or capital, if needed, will be available or, if available,
that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company.
Basis
of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenues and expenses during the period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The core principle of the revenue standard
is that a company should recognize revenue by analyzing the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify
the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance
obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company primarily invoices customers
and recognizes revenue on a periodic basis for equipment and labor hours provided to a customer on a particular job based on an agreed-upon
hourly rate sheet or a fixed amount for a project. The Company also invoices customers and recognizes revenue for equipment mobilization
fees and materials and supplies required to complete a project. The Company invoices for the sales of chemicals, stone and other products
and recognizes revenue when the products are delivered to the customer’s designated site or when control of these products is transferred
to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products.
Sales and other taxes that the Company collects concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. Costs for equipment,
labor and chemicals are generally expensed as incurred since the projects are generally short-term and not subject to a contract. The
Company also invoices customers for the provision of environmental security services on an agreed-upon hourly rate for each project.
All revenue is recognized at a point in time.
9
The
Company recognizes revenue from contracts for financial reporting purposes over time. Progress toward completion of the Company’s
contracts is measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is
used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties
in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change significantly within the near term.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash
equivalents. From time to time, the Company’s cash account balances exceed the balances covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance
System. The Company has never suffered a loss due to such excess balances.
Accounts
Receivable
Trade
accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from the balances outstanding at the end of each fiscal period
reflected in the consolidated balance sheets. Based on management’s assessment, it has concluded that losses on balances outstanding
as of those dates will be immaterial and, therefore, no allowances were recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2023 or the
three months ended September 30, 2022. Accounts receivable were $ 2,897,234 and $ 981,385 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022,
respectively. No bad debt expense was accrued in either the three months ended September 30, 2023 or the three months ended September
30, 2022 and there is no allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Unbilled
Receivables
Unbilled
receivables represent revenue that has been recognized on projects for which billings have not been presented to the customer because
the amounts were earned but not billable at the balance sheet date.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment is carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to cost of services. Additions and betterments
are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts
and any gain or loss is reflected in the current year’s earnings.

The
Company provides for depreciation of property and equipment using the straight-line method for both financial reporting and federal income
tax purposes over the estimated six -year useful lives of the equipment.
The
Company assesses the recoverability of its property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation of the assets over their remaining
lives can be recovered through projected future cash flows generated by the assets. There were no assets identified for impairment.
10
Land
Land
is carried at cost. The Company assesses the recoverability of its land by determining whether the cost of the land can be recovered
through projected future cash flows generated by the land. No land was identified for impairment.
Delivery
Costs
Delivery
costs are classified as cost of sales.
Goodwill
Goodwill
is tested for impairment annually and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not
(i.e., a likelihood greater than 50%) that the intangible asset is impaired.
Income
Taxes
The
Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their
respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized as income (loss) in the period that includes the enactment date.
Leases
The
Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right
to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the
estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the
information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments. As of September 30, 2023, the
Company had no material lease commitments.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company periodically issues stock options and restricted stock awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions
for services. The Company accounts for such grants issued and vesting based on ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation whereby the value
of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized for employees as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the
vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash
for the services. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation within its Consolidated Statements of Operations
with classification depending on the nature of the services rendered.
The
fair value of the Company’s stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain
assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or restricted stock, and future
dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model and based
on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense
recorded in future periods.
11
Basic
and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic
income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of outstanding common shares during the period. Shares of restricted stock are included in the basic weighted average number of common
shares outstanding from the time they vest. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Shares of restricted stock are included in the diluted weighted average number
of common shares outstanding from the date they are granted unless they are antidilutive. Diluted income (loss) per share excludes all
potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used
to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

the patents is uncertain. Accordingly, patent costs are expensed as incurred.
Research
and Development
Research
and development costs consist primarily of fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, patent fees and costs, and other expenses
relating to the acquisition, design, development and testing of the Company’s glycosylated cannabinoid drug candidates. Research and development
costs are expensed as incurred.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
FASB
ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Financial
instruments held by the Company include, among others, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts
reported in the balance sheets for assets and liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Segments
As of September 30, 2023, the Company has five operating business segments:
(i) Range Reclaim, (ii) Range Water, (iii) Range Security, (iv) Range Land, and (v) Drug Development. Previously, beginning in October
2021, the Company began operating under two segments: (i) Graphium Biosciences, Inc., which reports the operating results of our broad
portfolio of glycosylated cannabinoid prodrugs that are being developed to unlock the rebalancing effects of the endocannabinoid system
to address numerous chronic inflammatory conditions, and (ii) the Range Reclamation Entities, which
report the operating results of the Range Reclaim segment, which provides land reclamation, water restoration and incidental mining to
mining and non-mining customers throughout Appalachia . The Range Water, Range Security and Range Land business segments began operations
in 2023.
In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC,
the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to
make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management
approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide
disclosures about products and services and major customers. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment
Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; geographic location of operation; nature
of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing, and distribution processes.
12
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . ASU 2016-13 requires entities to
use a forward-looking approach based on current expected credit losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments,
including trade receivables. This may result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13 was effective for the Company
beginning January 1, 2023. This did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash
flows.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s
present or future financial statements.

The
Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination in accordance ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. The Company
has performed an allocation of the purchase price paid for the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The fair values of the assets
acquired are set forth below. Because the fair values exceeded the purchase price, we recognized a gain on the purchase of $ 1,875,150 .

ACQUISITION OF RANGE ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES AND RANGE NATURAL RESOURCES
In
May 2022, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Daedalus Ecosciences, Inc., entered into a share purchase agreement with
Range Environmental Resources, Inc. (“Range Environmental”) and Range Natural Resources, Inc. (“Range
Natural”, and collectively with Range Environmental, the “Range Reclamation Entities”), and the two (2)
shareholders of the Range Reclamation Entities (the “Range Shareholders”) (the “Range Share Purchase
Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued a total of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the
Range Shareholders and paid cash consideration of $ 1,000,000 to the Range Shareholders in exchange for 80 % of the outstanding common
stock of each of the Range Reclamation Entities.
Subsequent to entering into the Range Share Purchase Agreement, the Company
discovered that Joshua Justice, one of the Range Shareholders (“Justice”), made certain misrepresentations in the Range Share
Purchase Agreement. On July 12, 2022, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement, by and among the Company, Daedalus Ecosciences,
the Range Reclamation Entities, and Justice and his spouse (the “Separation Agreement”) pursuant to which Justice: a) acknowledged
that his employment with the Range Reclamation Entities was terminated for cause effective June 30, 2022; b) returned the 5,000,000 shares
of the Company’s common stock that had been issued to him under the terms of the Range Share Purchase Agreement; c) transferred
his 10% interest in each of the Range Reclamation Entities to Daedalus Ecosciences; and d) paid cash in an amount of $250,000. As a result,
only 5,000,000 of the Company’s common stock issued to the Range Shareholders is considered to have been issued in exchange for
90% of the outstanding common stock of each of the Range Reclamation Entities.
13
Subsequently,
on October 11, 2022, Daedalus Ecosciences and Jeremy Starks, the remaining Range Shareholder (“Starks”), entered into a
share purchase agreement, effective as of May 11, 2022 (the “Starks Agreement”), pursuant to which Starks exchanged his
10 % common stock ownership of the Range Reclamation Entities for 10 % of the Cash Dividends and Sale Proceeds (as both terms are
defined in the Starks Agreement) of the Range Reclamation Entities. As a result of the merger of Daedalus Ecosciences into Malachite
as of December 31, 2022, the Range Reclamation Entities are reported as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company in the financial
statements made part of this Form 10-Q. No other changes were made to the consideration received by Starks as part of the Range
Share Purchase Agreement and he remains as President of each of the Range Reclamation Entities.
The
Company accounted for the above transactions as a business combination in accordance ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. The
Company has performed an allocation of the purchase price paid for the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The fair values
