ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024. 24 Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting were not effective, and material weaknesses over financial reporting were identified. Material weakness means 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 registrant’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified were: ● due to ongoing financial constraints, we have not been devoting adequate resources to our accounting and reporting functions in order to properly record, file and review our financial transactions on a regular basis in order to ensure accuracy; and ● we do not have a properly documented internal control system in accordance with the requirements of COSO or some similarly appropriate internal control methodology or formal documentation of our systems of internal control. We are working to remediate the material weaknesses. We cannot be sure when we will successfully remediate the material weaknesses or whether compensating controls will be effective in preventing or detecting material errors. The remediation may require substantial time and resources to successfully implement. We may be unable to remediate these weaknesses until we have received additional funding that may be necessary to hire additional personnel. Until we have sufficient internal finance and accounting staff, we plan to work closely with external financial advisors to document the existing financial processes, risk assessment, and internal controls systematically. These material weaknesses could cause creditors, customers, investors, regulators, strategic alliances and others to lose confidence in the effectiveness of our internal controls and the accuracy of our financial statements and other information, all of which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report. Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The board of directors’ discretion in determining director independence is not completely unfettered. Further, under the NASDAQ definition, an independent director is a person who (1) is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years), employed by the company; (2) has not (or whose immediate family members have not) been paid more than $120,000 during the current or past three fiscal years; (3) has not (or whose immediately family has not) been a partner in or controlling shareholder or executive officer of an organization which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in excess of the greater of $200,000 or 5% of that organizations consolidated gross revenues, in any of the most recent three fiscal years; (4) has not (or whose immediate family members have not), over the past three years been employed as an executive officer of a company in which an executive officer of the company has served on that company’s compensation committee; or (5) is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years) a partner of the company’s outside auditor. Board Meetings and committees; annual meeting attendance There is no Nominating Committee for directors, which the Company considers reasonable, as there is no direct compensation to directors who are not also officers, and there is no liability insurance available for errors and omissions, should they occur. Therefore, the Company has found it extremely difficult to attract independent directors. There were no changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s board of directors. Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert We do not have a standing audit committee, an audit committee financial expert, or any committee or person performing a similar function. The entire board of directors acts as the audit committee. We currently have limited working capital and a history of losses. Our board of directors does not believe that it would be in our best interests at this time to identify and retain independent directors to sit on an audit committee or a director that qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under SEC regulations. Compensation Committee As of this filing there was no compensation committee. The entire board of directors acts as the compensation committee. Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports Scott Yenzer, a director, is delinquent in filing a Form 3, and a Form 4 at the time of this filing. Code of Ethics; Insider Trading Arrangements and Policies Our board of directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct for Officers, Directors and Employees, which includes our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. 27 The code includes an insider trading policy, which prohibits officers, directors and employees, directly or indirectly through their families or others, from purchasing or selling company stock while in the possession of material, non-public information concerning the Company. This same prohibition applies to trading in the stock of other publicly held companies on the basis of material, non-public information. A current copy of the code is posted on our website, www.seer-corp.com. ITEM 11.

John Combs III Chairman of the Board of Directors June 6, 2025 J. John Combs III /s/ Christopher Scott Yenzer Director June 6, 2025 Christopher Scott Yenzer /s/ Christopher Dieterich Director June 6, 2025 Christopher Dieterich 33 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company has (i) incurred significant losses since inception, (ii) has an accumulated deficit of approximately $36.2 million as of December 31, 2024 and (iii) needs to raise substantial amounts of additional funds to meet its obligations as well as afford it time to develop profitable operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.

F- 5 NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Organization and Going Concern Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. (“SEER,” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, is a provider of next-generation clean-technologies, waste management innovations and related services. SEER has two wholly owned operating subsidiaries and three majority-owned subsidiaries; all of which together provide technology solutions and services to companies primarily in the oil and gas, refining, landfill, food, beverage & agriculture, and renewable fuel industries. The two wholly owned subsidiaries are: 1) MV, LLC (d/b/a MV Technologies) (“MV”), which designs and builds biogas conditioning solutions for the production of renewable natural gas, odor control systems and natural gas vapor capture primarily for landfill operations, waste-water treatment facilities, oil and gas fields, refineries, municipalities and food, beverage & agriculture operations throughout the U.S.; and 2) Strategic Environmental Materials, LLC, (“SEM”), a materials technology company previously focused on the development of cost-effective chemical absorbents. The media production operations were discontinued during the year ended December 31, 2023. (See Note 16) The two majority-owned subsidiaries are 1) Paragon Waste Solutions, LLC (“PWS”), and 2) PelleChar, LLC (“PelleChar”). PWS is currently owned 54 % by SEER, and PelleChar is owned 51 % by SEER. PWS developed specific opportunities to deploy and commercialize patented technologies for a non-thermal plasma-assisted oxidation process that makes possible the clean and efficient destruction of solid hazardous chemical and biological waste ( i.e ., regulated medical waste, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and refinery tank waste, etc .) without landfilling or traditional incineration and without harmful emissions. Additionally, this technology “cleans” and conditions emissions and gaseous waste streams ( i.e ., volatile organic compounds and other greenhouse gases) generated from diverse sources such as refineries, oil fields, and many others. In July 2022, the Company exchanged its patents and related technology, to its joint venture, Paragon Southwest Medical Waste (“PSMW”), in exchange for units in PSMW. (See Note 9) PelleChar was established in September 2018 and is owned 51 % by SEER. Pellechar has secured third-party pellet manufacturing capabilities from one of the nation’s premier pellet manufacturers. Working closely with Biochar Now, LLC, Pellechar commenced sales in late 2019 of its proprietary pellets containing the proven and superior Biochar Now product starting with the landscaping and big agriculture markets. At this time, Pellechar is the only company able to offer a soil amendment pellet containing the Biochar Now product that is produced using the patented pyrolytic process. Principals of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEER, its wholly owned subsidiaries, SEM, and MV, and its majority-owned subsidiaries PWS and PelleChar, since their respective acquisition or formation dates. All material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has non-controlling interest in joint ventures, which are reported on the equity method. Going Concern As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 36.2 million as of December 31, 2024, and for the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $ 1.8 million. As of December 31, 2024, current liabilities exceeded our current assets by approximately $ 13.3 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue to operate as a going concern. Realization of a major portion of the Company’s assets as of December 31, 2024, is dependent upon continued operations. The Company is dependent on generating additional revenue or obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company raised approximately $ 1.2 million from the issuance of short-term and long-term debt, offset by payments of principal on short term notes of $ 0.3 million, for net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $ 0.9 million. In addition, the Company has undertaken a number of specific steps to continue to operate as a going concern. The Company continues to focus on developing organic growth in our operating companies and improving gross and net margins through increased attention to pricing, aggressive cost management and overhead reductions. Critical to achieving profitability will be the ability to license and or sell, permit and operate through the Company’s joint ventures. The Company has increased business development efforts to address opportunities identified in expanding markets attributable to increased interest in energy conservation and emission control regulations. In addition, the Company is evaluating various forms of financing which may be available to it. There can be no assurance that the Company will secure additional financing for working capital, increase revenues and achieve the desired result of net income and positive cash flow from operations in future years. These financial statements do not give any effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to report on a going concern basis. F- 6 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the forecasted cash flows used in the impairment testing of intangible assets, the carrying amount of intangible assets; valuation allowances and reserves for receivables; revenue recognition related to contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method; and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in 2023 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2024 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income for the year ended December 31, 2023. Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all highly liquid debt investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Periodically, we maintain deposits in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, we did not hold any assets that would be deemed to be cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our accounts receivable. We determine the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon an aging of accounts receivable, historical experience and management judgment. Accounts receivable balances are periodically reviewed for collectability, and balances are charged off against the allowance when we determine that the potential for recovery is remote. An allowance for credit losses of approximately $ 24,200 has been reserved as of both December 31, 2024, and 2023. We are exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business, primarily related to accounts receivable. Our customers operate primarily in the oil production and refining, biogas generating landfill and wastewater treatment industries in the United States. Accordingly, we are affected by the economic conditions in these industries as well as general economic conditions in the United States. To limit credit risk, management periodically reviews and evaluates the financial condition of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. As of December 31, 2024, we had four customers who comprised 10% or more of our accounts receivable and had a balance of approximately $ 481,800 . As of December 31, 2023, we had three customers who comprised 10% or more of our accounts receivable and had a balance of approximately $ 289,100 . For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had two customers who each had sales in excess of 10% of our revenue and they represented approximately 28 % of total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we had two customers who each had sales in excess of 10% of our revenue and they represented approximately 29 % of total revenue. F- 7 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and maintained on a first in, first out basis and includes the following amounts at December 31: SCHEDULE OF INVENTORY December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Finished goods $ 2,100 $ 16,800 Total inventory $ 2,100 $ 16,800 Vendor Concentration The Company has purchases from three vendors in both 2024 and 2023, each comprising more that 10% of total purchases. The Company does not believe it is substantially dependent upon nor exposed to any significant concentration risk related to purchases from any single vendor. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including accounts receivable and accounts payable, are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value due to their short-term maturities. We believe that the carrying value of notes payable with third parties, including their current portion, approximate their fair value, as those instruments carry market interest rates based on our current financial condition and liquidity. Receivables and payables, due to short term nature, approximate their fair values. Fair Value As defined in authoritative guidance, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (“exit price”). To estimate fair value, the Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable. The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs 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). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Other inputs that are observable, directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and which the Company makes its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities. In instances in which multiple levels of inputs are used to measure fair value, hierarchy classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. F- 8 Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of generally five 5 to seven years for equipment, five 5 to ten years for vehicles and three years for computer related assets. Assets are depreciated starting at the time they are placed into service. A portion of depreciation expense is charged to cost of product revenue on the consolidated statement of operations. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term (including reasonably assured renewal periods), which range from three 3 to seven years , or their estimated useful life. Intangible Assets Intangible Assets. Intangible assets deemed to have finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, where the useful life is the period over which the asset is expected to contribute directly, or indirectly, to our future cash flows. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment on an interim basis when certain events or circumstances exist. For amortizable intangible assets, impairment exists when the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value. At least annually, the remaining useful life is evaluated. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset that is amortized over the remaining useful life of that asset, if any. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. Impairment of Long-lived Assets We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Further testing of specific assets or grouping of assets is required when undiscounted future cash flows associated with the assets is less than their carrying amounts. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of an asset group are estimated to be less than its carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. Fair value estimates are based on assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers that superseded most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The underlying principle of the guidance is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance requires an evaluation of revenue arrangements with customers following a five-step approach: (1) identify the contract with a 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) the company satisfies each performance obligation. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services are transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the expected consideration in exchange for those services. A customer obtains control when it has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the services. Other major provisions of the guidance include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. (See Note 3) F- 9 Stock-based Compensation We account for stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize compensation over the service period that they are expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated value of the portion of a stock-based award that is ultimately expected to vest, taking into consideration estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The estimate of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent that actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, such differences are accounted for using the simplified method to estimate the expected term of the option and recorded in the period that estimates are revised. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Earnings available to common shareholders is computed by deducting dividends and accretion on convertible preferred stock from earnings attributable to the Company. The potential diluted effect of stock options and other stock-based awards is computed using the treasury stock method whereby the weighted-average number of common shares used in the basic earnings per share calculation is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential dilutive common shares had been issued at the beginning of the year. The potential dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock is computed using the if-converted method whereby dividends and accretion on the convertible preferred stock are added back to the numerator, and the common shares resulting from the assumed conversion of the convertible preferred stock are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share calculation. Research and Development Research and development (“R&D”) costs are charged to expense as incurred. R&D expenses consist primarily of salaries, project materials, contract labor and other costs associated with ongoing product development and enhancement efforts. R&D expenses were $ 0 for both the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes, which utilizes the asset and liability method of computing deferred income taxes. The objective of this method is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for any temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. ASC 740 also provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized. During the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 the Company recognized no adjustments for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were recognized at December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company expects no material changes to unrecognized tax positions within the next twelve months. The Company has filed federal and state tax returns through December 31, 2023. The tax periods for the years ending December 31, 2021, through 2023 are open to examination by federal and state authorities. Recently issued accounting pronouncements Changes to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the form of accounting standards updates (ASU’s) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all new or revised ASU’s. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The ASU expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The Company adopted this standard effective for the fiscal year 2024. Adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. F- 10 NOTE 3 – REVENUE Products Revenue Product revenue are generated from contracts with customers, for the manufacture of products, and related media, for the removal and treatment of hazardous vapor and gases. Total estimated revenue includes all of the following: (1) the basic contract price, (2) contract options, and (3) change orders. Once contract performance is underway, the Company may experience changes in conditions, client requirements, specifications, designs, materials, and expectations regarding the period of performance. Such changes are “change orders” and may be initiated by us or by our clients. In many cases, agreement with the client as to the terms of change orders is reached prior to work commencing; however, sometimes circumstances require that work progress without obtaining client agreement. Revenue related to change orders is recognized as costs are incurred if it is probable that costs will be recovered by changing the contract price. The Company does not incur pre-contract costs. Under the new revenue recognition guidance, the Company found no change in the manner product revenue is recognized. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which the losses are identified and included as additional loss. Provisions for estimated losses on contracts are shown separately as liabilities on the balance sheet, if significant, except in circumstances in which related costs are accumulated on the balance sheet, in which case the provisions are deducted from the accumulated costs. A provision as a liability is reported as a current liability. The Company includes in current assets and current liabilities amounts related to contracts realizable and payable. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts represent the excess of contract costs and profits recognized to date over billings to date and are recognized as a current asset. Revenue contract liabilities represent the excess of billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits recognized to date and are recognized as a current liability. Products revenue also includes media sales which are recognized as the product is shipped to the customer for use.

NOTE 6 – LEASES The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for real estate. These leases have terms which range from 1 to 8 years, and often include one or more options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term from 1 year to month-to-month and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. These operating leases are included in “Right of use assets” on the Company’s December 31, 2024, Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term.

All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

F- 19 NOTE 13 – EQUITY TRANSACTIONS 2024 Equity Transactions During the year ended December 31, 2024, no new common stock equity transactions have occurred. During the year ended December 31, 2024, 4 million shares of preferred stock of the company were issued in exchange for a consulting agreement. These preferred shares have 15-1 voting rights compared to common shares. These preferred shares are convertible to 3.6 million common shares, only after a shareholder vote occurs to expand the authorized shares of common stock. The preferred shares were valued at $ 144,000 , and were fully earned and expense recognized at the time of issue. 2023 Equity Transactions During the year ended December 31, 2023, no new equity transactions have occurred. Non-controlling Interest The non-controlling interest presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements reflects a 46% non-controlling equity interest in PWS, and 49 % non-controlling equity interest in PelleChar. Net losses attributable to non-controlling interest, as reported on our condensed consolidated statements of operations, represents the net loss of each entity attributable to the non-controlling equity interest . The non-controlling interest is reflected within stockholders’ equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. NOTE 14 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN Except as noted below, we do not have a qualified stock option plan, but have issued stock purchase warrants and stock options on a discretionary basis to employees, directors, service providers, private placement participants and outside consultants. The Company utilizes ASC 718, Stock Compensation, related to accounting for share-based payments and, accordingly, records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock options and restricted stock awards. The Black Scholes option pricing model was used to estimate the fair value of the options granted. This option pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected stock price volatility and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). The Company does not estimate forfeitures, and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company estimated a volatility factor utilizing a weighted average of comparable published volatilities. The Company applied the simplified method to determine the expected term of all stock-based compensation grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on or approximates the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. The Company accounts for stock options as equity awards. F- 20 A summary of stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 is presented as follows: SCHEDULE OF STOCK OPTION ACTIVITY Weighted Weighted Weighted Average Average Average Number of Remaining Optioned Aggregate Exercise Optioned Contractual Grant Date Intrinsic Price Shares Term in Years Fair Value Value Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 0.65 1,090,000 1.55 $ 0.04 $ - Granted - - - Exercised - - - Cancelled/expired 0.10 ( 90,000 ) 0.06 Balance as of December 31, 2023 $ 0.65 1,000,000 0.67 $ 0.04 $ - Granted - - - Exercised - - - Cancelled/expired 0.70 ( 250,000 ) 0.04 Balance as of December 31, 2024 $ 0.70 750,000 0.80 $ 0.04 $ - Vested and exercisable as of December 31, 2024 $ 0.70 750,000 0.80 $ 0.04 $ - For the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, we recorded stock-based compensation awarded to employees of $ 0 .

Employee Benefit Plan The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan that covers substantially all employees. Additionally, at the discretion of management, the Company may make contributions to eligible participants, as defined. During the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, we made no contributions in each year. NOTE 15 – NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic net gain or loss per share is computed by dividing net gain or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net gain or loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation when their effect would be anti-dilutive. For years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the diluted share calculations because they were anti-dilutive as a result of the net losses incurred for the respective period, or were dilutive, but the exercise prices were above the stock price for the entire period, deeming them not to be converted, or exercised during the period. Accordingly, basic shares equal diluted shares for all periods presented. Potentially dilutive securities were comprised of the following: SCHEDULE OF POTENTIALLY DILUTIVE SECURITIES 2024 2023 Years ended December 31, 2024 2023 Options 750,000 1,000,000 Convertible preferred shares (net common issuable) 3,600,000 - Convertible notes payable, including accrued interest 3,695,500 3,443,000 Potentially dilutive securities 8,045,500 4,443,000 F- 21 NOTE 16 – DISCONTINUED SEM OPERATIONS On January 1, 2023, the Company’s board of directors, by unanimous consent, adopted a resolution to discontinue the then-current media production operations of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, SEM, LLC. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all media production operations from SEM have been reported as discontinued operations. Management intends to use the SEM entity for the delivery of biochar kilns to Biochar Now and, further, to commence SEER’s own biochar production in Texas under a joint venture license from Biochar Now.

NOTE 18 - INCOME TAXES As of December 31, 2024, we estimate we will have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future federal income tax of approximately $ 26.5 million. These carryforwards will expire between the years 2029 through 2038 . Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amount of and the benefit from net operating losses that can be carried forward may be limited in certain circumstances. Events that may cause changes in our tax carryovers include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. We carry a deferred tax valuation allowance equal to 100% of total deferred assets. In recording this allowance, we have considered a number of factors, but chiefly, our operating losses from inception. We have concluded that a valuation allowance is required for 100% of the total deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized . The non-current deferred tax asset is summarized below: SCHEDULE OF NON-CURRENT DEFERRED TAX ASSETS 2024 2023 Deferred tax assets Net operating loss carry forwards $ 7,340,000 $ 6,800,000 Intangible and fixed assets - 5,000 Other - 15,000 Total deferred tax assets 7,340,000 6,820,000 Deferred tax liabilities Depreciation and amortization - - Valuation allowance ( 7,340,000 ) ( 6,820,000 ) Net deferred tax asset $ - $ - F- 23 The benefit for income taxes differed from the amount computed using the U.S. federal income tax rate of 21 % for December 31, 2024 and 2023, as follows: SCHEDULE OF COMPONENTS OF INCOME TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT) 2024 2023 Income tax benefit $ 520,000 $ 500,000 Non-deducible items - ( 2,000 ) State and other benefits included in valuation - ( 7,000 ) Provision to return adjustments - - Impairment of intangible assets - - Impairment of investment - ( 38,000 ) Exclusion of income (losses) of pass-through entity - ( 3,000 ) Other - - Change in valuation allowance ( 520,000 ) ( 450,000 ) Income tax benefit $ - $ - NOTE 19 – ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE Significant federal environmental laws affecting us are the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as the “Superfund Act”, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act (“TSCA”). Pursuant to the EPA’s authorization of the RCRA equivalent programs, a number of states have regulatory programs governing the operations and permitting of hazardous waste facilities. Our facilities are regulated pursuant to state statutes, including those addressing clean water and clean air. Our facilities are also subject to local siting, zoning and land use restrictions. We believe we are in substantial compliance with all federal, state and local laws regulating our business. NOTE 20 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In December, 2024, our Board of Directors acted by written consent in lieu of a meeting, to adopt and approve an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock we are authorized to issue from 70,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 to 320,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 (a net increase of 250,000,000 common shares). A SEC form Pre-14C was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 28, 2025, and after the required waiting period, the Company a SEC Form Def-14C on February 14, 2025, effecting the increase in authorized shares of the Company.
