FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made in this Form 10-Q that are not historical or current facts are forward-looking statements. These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are the following: the Company’s ability to obtain necessary capital, the Company’s ability to meet anticipated development timelines, the Company’s ability to protect its proprietary technology and knowhow, the Company’s ability to establish a global market, the Company’s ability to successfully consummate future acquisitions, and such other risk factors identified from time to time in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those filed with this Form 10-Q quarterly report.

NOTE 3- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Sakura Software, a corporation owned by our CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Andrew S. Thomas, and Benford Consultancy, a corporation owned by our COO and a member of our Board of Directors, Paul Benford, own, respectively, 72.34% and 27.66% of the issued and outstanding shares of Real Innovations International LLC, (“Real Innovations”) a corporation organized under the laws of Nevis, West Indies. In March 2012, Cogent, our operating subsidiary, assigned all of its intellectual property including the pending patent applications for its real-time data transmission and display technology (the “IP”) to Real Innovations under an assignment of intellectual property agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”). In return for the assignment Real Innovations required a one-time payment of $30,000 to Cogent. Cogent elected to forgo the payment allowing Real Innovations to offset future expenses against the payment. There is no ongoing royalty payment or other form of compensation from Real Innovations to Cogent under the Assignment Agreement.

Real Innovations, in turn, entered into a master intellectual property license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Cogent for all of the same IP. Under the License Agreement Real Innovations granted a royalty-free license in perpetuity to Cogent for the use and exploitation of the IP in return for which Cogent agreed to: (i) pay all operating expenses of Real Innovations incurred in connection with the continued prosecution of pending patent applications and others that may be prepared; (ii) prosecute all claims for infringement of the IP; (iii) defend and indemnify Real Innovations from and against all claims of infringement of the IP asserted by third parties against Real Innovations, Cogent or our Company; (iv) purchase liability insurance in favor of Real Innovations for this purpose. Under the termination provision of the licenses agreement, there is no unilateral right of termination. Termination may occur by mutual consent of the parties, the Company ceasing doing business, by breach by the Company or by the Company failing to maintain the license and the support to prosecute and protect the license under applicable laws.

Under the License Agreement, Messrs. Andrew S. Thomas and Paul Benford will benefit indirectly from their indirect ownership of all of the shares of Real Innovations to the extent of any such payments or other undertakings by Cogent on behalf of Real Innovations, but the exact amount of these benefits cannot be determined at this time. No payments have been made as of April 30, 2023.

As of April 30, 2023, the amount due related parties was $130,636 compared to $115,475 as of October 31, 2022.

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Skkynet’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward-looking statements as a result of the risks set forth in Skkynet’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Skkynet is a Nevada corporation headquartered in Mississauga, Canada. Skkynet operates three different lines of business through its wholly owned subsidiaries Cogent Real-Time Systems, Inc. (“Cogent”), Skkynet, Inc. (“Skkynet (USA)”), and Skkynet Corp. (“Skkynet (Canada)”). Skkynet was established to enhance Cogent’s existing business lines through the integration of Cloud-based systems, and to deliver a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) product targeting the Industrial Internet of Things (“IoT”) market, now referred to by the terms “Industry 4.0” and “Industrial Internet Consortium”.

The Company provides software and related systems and facilities to collect, process, and distribute real-time information over a network. This capability allows the customers to both locally and remotely manage, supervise, and control industrial processes and financial information systems. By using this software and, when requested by a client, our web based assets, our clients and their relevant customers are given the ability and the tools to observe and interact with these processes and services in real-time as they are underway and to give them the power to analyze, alter, stop, or otherwise influence these activities to conform to their plans.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, revenue was $625,464 and $1,117,583 compared to $540,093 and $1,017,272 for the same periods in 2022. Revenue increased for the six month period ended April 30, 2023 over the same period in 2022 by 9.9%. The increase in revenue for the six-month period is attributed to higher sales by Cogent. The Company is benefiting from its prior investment in sales and marketing and market recognition which has contributed to the increase in Cogent’s sales.

General and administrative expense was $742,977 and $1,368,941 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 compared to $593,731 and $1,171,021 for the same periods in 2022. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 over the same periods in 2022, resulted from increased expenditures primarily in salaries and wages and hired consultants.

For the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, the Company reported an operating loss of $117,513 and $251,358 compared to operating losses of $53,638 and $153,749 for the same periods in 2022. The operating loss during the three and six-month periods ended April 30, 2023, over the operating losses for same periods in 2022 is attributable to higher general and administrative costs and salaries and wages in the period ended April 30, 2023, as noted in the above paragraph compared to 2022.

Other income and expense for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, was other income of $3,859 and other expense of $9,502 compared to other expense of $3,684 and other income of $22,263 for the same periods in 2022. The amount of change in both periods was due to the effect of currency exchange.

Net loss after income taxes of $83,815 and $231,021 was reported for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, compared to a net loss after income taxes of $17,955 and $92,119 for the same periods in 2022. The higher net loss for the three and six month periods in 2023 can be attributed to higher general and administrative cost and salaries and wages in 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. During the three month period ended April 30, 2023 the Company received a tax refund for development of $29,839.

Net loss to common stockholders was $86,720 and $236,831 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, compared to net loss of $20,860 and $97,929 for the same periods in 2022. The loss includes the expense of dividend for preferred stockholders of $5,810 being accrued for the six months period ended April 30, 2023 and 2022.

The Company reported comprehensive loss of $90,740 and $235,367 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 compared to a comprehensive loss of $19,475 and $79,995 for the same periods in 2022. The comprehensive loss is an adjustment to net loss with foreign currency translation adjustments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At April 30, 2023, Skkynet had current assets of $1,126,317 and current liabilities of $616,091, resulting in working capital of $510,226. Accumulated deficit, as of April 30, 2023, was $6,686,116 with total stockholders’ equity of $501,338.

Net cash provided in operating activities for the six month period ended April 30, 2023, was $43,806 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $207,953 for the same period in 2022.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six month period ending April 31, 2023 was $4,350 compared to $12,135 for the same period in 2022. Both periods amounts were due to the repayment of loans.

The cash provided by operating activities for the six-month period ended April 30, 2023 compared to the cash used in operating activities over the same period in 2022 was primarily due positive changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due related parties plus the increase in deferred revenue during the period.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, Skkynet is not required to provide information required under this Item.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2023 using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework- 2013. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We lack full time personnel in accounting and financial staff to sufficiently monitor and process financial transactions in an efficient and timely manner. Our history of losses has severely limited our budget to hire and train enough accounting and financial personnel needed to adequately provide this function. Consequently, we lacked sufficient technical expertise, reporting standards and written policies and procedures along with a lack of a formal review process which includes multiple layers of review. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management believes that the Unaudited Financial Statements included herein present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
