−Removed: Evolution of Technology
−Removed: Historically, efforts to raise
−Removed: shrimp in a high-density, closed system at the commercial level have been met with either modest success or outright failure through “BioFloc
−Removed: Technology.” Infectious agents such as parasites, bacteria and viruses are the most damaging and most difficult to control.
−Removed: infection can in some cases be combated through the use of antibiotics (although not always), and in general, the use of antibiotics is
−Removed: considered undesirable and counter to “green” cultivation practices.
−Removed: Viruses can be worse, in that they are immune to antibiotics.
−Removed: Once introduced to a shrimp population, viruses can wipe out entire farms and shrimp populations, even with intense probiotic applications.
−Removed: Our primary solution against infectious
−Removed: agents is our “Vibrio Suppression Technology.” We believe this system creates higher sustainable densities, consistent production,
−Removed: improved growth and survival rates and improved food conversion without the use of antibiotics, probiotics, or unhealthy anti-microbial
−Removed: Vibrio Suppression Technology helps to exclude and suppress harmful organisms that usually destroy “BioFloc” and
−Removed: other enclosed technologies.
−Removed: In 2001, we began research and
−Removed: development of a high density, natural aquaculture system that is not dependent on ocean water to provide quality, fresh shrimp every
−Removed: week, fifty-two weeks a year.
−Removed: Our initial system was successful, but we determined that it would not be economically feasible due to high
−Removed: operating costs.
−Removed: Over the next several years, using the knowledge we gained from developing the first system, we developed a shrimp production
−Removed: system that eliminated the high costs associated with the previous system.
−Removed: We have continued to refine this technology, eliminating bacteria
−Removed: and other problems that affect enclosed systems, and now have a successful shrimp growing process.
−Removed: We have produced thousands of pounds
−Removed: of shrimp over the last few years in order to develop a design that will consistently produce quality shrimp that grow to a large size
−Removed: at a specific rate of growth.
−Removed: This included experimenting with various types of natural live and synthesized feed supplies before selecting
−Removed: the most appropriate nutritious and reliable combination.
−Removed: It also included utilizing monitoring and control automation equipment to minimize
−Removed: labor costs and to provide the necessary oversight for proper regulation of the shrimp environment.
−Removed: However, there were further enhancements
−Removed: needed to our process and technology in order to begin production of shrimp on a commercially viable scale and to generate revenues.
−Removed: Our current system consists of
−Removed: a nursery tank where the shrimp are acclimated, then moved to a larger grow-out tank for the rest of the twenty-week cycle.
−Removed: we engaged in additional engineering projects with third parties to further enhance our indoor production capabilities.
−Removed: For example, through
−Removed: our relationship with Trane, Inc., a division of Ingersoll-Rand Plc (“Trane”), Trane provided a detailed audit to use data
−Removed: to build and verify the capabilities of then initial Phase 1 prototype of a Trane-proposed three tank system at our La Coste, Texas facility.
−Removed: The Company working with F&T Water Solutions contracted RGA Labs, Inc.
−Removed: (“RGA Labs”) to build the initial NaturalShrimp
−Removed: patented Electrocoagulation system for the grow-out, harvesting and processing of fully mature, antibiotic-free Pacific White Leg shrimp.
−Removed: The design provided a viable pathway to begin generating revenue and producing shrimp on a commercially viable scale.
−Removed: The equipment was
−Removed: installed in early June 2018 by RGA Labs, and final financing for the system was provided by one of the Company’s institutional
−Removed: The first post larvae (PL) arrived from the hatchery on July 3, 2018.
−Removed: The Company used the shrimp for sampling to key potential
−Removed: customers and special events such as the Texas Restaurant Association trade show.
−Removed: The Company also received two production PL lots from
−Removed: Global Blue Technologies on March 21, 2019 and April 17, 2019 and from American Penaeid, Inc.
−Removed: on August 7, 2019.
−Removed: Because the shrimp displayed
−Removed: growth that was slower than normal, the Company had a batch tested by an independent lab at the University of Arizona.
−Removed: The shrimp tested
−Removed: positive for Infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis (“IHHNV”) and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department was notified
−Removed: that the facility was under quarantine.
−Removed: On August 26, 2019, the Company was forced to terminate all lots due to the infection.
−Removed: 30, 2019, the Company received notice that it was in compliance again and the quarantine had been lifted and the Company began restocking
−Removed: shrimp in the refurbished facility sections.
−Removed: During the aforementioned quarantine, the Company decided to begin an approximately $2,000,000
−Removed: facility renovation demolishing the interior 16 wood structure lined tanks (720,000 gallons).
−Removed: The Company began replacing the previous
−Removed: tanks with 40 new fiberglass tanks (600,000 gallons) at a cost of approximately $400,000 allowing complete production flexibility with
−Removed: more smaller tanks.
−Removed: Recent Material Events During the Quarter
−Removed: On July 3, 2022, a building containing
−Removed: our water treatment and purification system in La Coste, Texas (the “Water Treatment Plant”) was completely destroyed in a
−Removed: The Water Treatment Plant is a separate building consisting of approximately 8,000 square feet located apart from the production
−Removed: building which was not damaged.
−Removed: We have filed a claim with our insurance company which, as of this filing, has not yet been completed.
−Removed: Due to the damage caused by the fire, we have written off approximately $1,764,000 of the fixed assets and $325,000 of the accumulated
−Removed: depreciation, for a net impairment to be recognized of $1,439,000.
−Removed: Results of Operations
−Removed: Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022
−Removed: to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
−Removed: We have not earned any significant
−Removed: revenues since our inception and, although we had revenue of approximately $36,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2022, we can provide
−Removed: no assurances as to how significant our revenue will be in the next one to two fiscal quarters.
−Removed: Our expenses for the three months
−Removed: ended June 30, 2022 are summarized as follows, in comparison to our expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021:
−Removed: Three Months Ended June 30,
+Added: of Technology

+Added: July 3, 2022, the La Coste, Texas shrimp production facility experienced a fire that damaged the Water Treatment Plant (WTP) including
+Added: the filtration equipment within the building.
+Added: The initial investigation indicated that the fire started at an external source near the
+Added: WTP building.
+Added: No one was hurt and this did not cause any damage to the main production building containing the shrimp.
+Added: The Company immediately
+Added: engaged its Emergency Response Team comprised of management, engineering, production, and sales personnel organized to quickly respond
+Added: and deal with potential situations such as this.
+Added: Fortunately, the Company has the necessary backup equipment to replace the damaged equipment
+Added: which will allow continued production and sales in Texas.
+Added: The Company received $700,000 from the insurance company for the claim filed
+Added: for the fire damage.
+Added: Due to the damage caused by the fire, the Company has written off approximately $1,764,000 of the fixed assets,
+Added: and $325,000 of the accumulated depreciation, which, less the $700,000 insurance settlement, has resulted in the recognition of a loss
+Added: due to fire in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.
+Added: began selling live shrimp in late June, and Iowa has been selling since November of 2021.
+Added: The initial live shrimp sales were limited
+Added: in size to establish and train customers in shipping and handling procedures.
+Added: These sales are targeted presently in the Chicago and San
+Added: Antonio areas.
+Added: As previously announced, the Company has established a partnership with US Foods, a leading foodservice distributor, to
+Added: deliver the Company’s fresh never frozen shrimp to US Foods in the South Texas area.
+Added: The Company expects sales to begin in November
+Added: 2022 with sales of approximately 1,000 pounds per month with expected expansion of sales to 4,000 pounds per month in the first calendar
+Added: quarter of 2023.
+Added: Total sales have also recently included the selling of shrimp at the downtown Webster City, Iowa market for the local
+Added: Chamber of Commerce.
+Added: expect the combined output from the La Coste, Texas, and Webster City, Iowa facilities should result in a total of 20,000 pounds of shrimp
+Added: production for the calendar quarter that will end on December 31, 2022 and 40,000 pounds of shrimp production for the first calendar
+Added: quarter of 2023.
+Added: believe that the combined output from our La Coste, Texas and Iowa facilities will be approximately 24,000 pounds of shrimp production
+Added: per week by the fourth calendar quarter of 2023.
+Added: Also, the Company is expecting to break ground on an 80,000 square foot expansion in
+Added: La Coste prior to December 31, 2022.
+Added: Merger Agreement and the Merger
+Added: October 24, 2022, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to
