Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2019
Note 1 – Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Annual Report of PowerVerde, Inc. (“PowerVerde,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for future periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PowerVerde, Inc., formerly known as Vyrex Corporation (the “Company”), and PowerVerde Systems, Inc., formerly known as PowerVerde, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation
Note 2 – Going Concern
We have financed our operations since inception through the sale of debt and equity securities and through Biotech IP licensing revenues which expired March 2018. As of June 30, 2019, we had working capital of $88,029 compared to a working capital deficit of $9,788 at December 31, 2018. This improvement in working capital is due primarily to the sale of related party notes payable during this period.
The Company has historically relied upon unrelated and related party debt and equity financing to fund its cash flow shortages and will require either additional debt or equity financing to sustain its operations. The Company’s revenues through 2018 were derived mainly from royalties under its Biotech licensing agreement, which expired in March 2018. Those factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company continues to seek funding from private debt and equity investors, as it needs to promptly raise substantial additional capital in order to finance its plan of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to promptly raise the necessary funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company does not raise the necessary funds, it may be forced to cease operations.
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to establish a new business involving the development and commercialization of clean energy electric power generation systems, and none of its planned principal operations have commenced. However, royalties from licenses unrelated to planned principal operations were recognized as revenue through March 2018, when the underlying license agreement terminated. No revenues from this planned principal operation have been generated.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of balances due from assembly services. The Company monitors accounts receivable and provides allowances when considered necessary. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, accounts receivable were considered to be fully collectible. Accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts was provided.
6
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Revenue Recognition
Royalties are recognized as earned in the period the sales to which the royalties relate occur. Manufacturing assembly services are recognized as revenue when the assembled product is delivered to the customer. Revenues recognized under these agreements amount to 100% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for major betterments and additions are capitalized, while replacement, maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets (property, equipment and intellectual property) used in operations when impairment indicators are present and the undiscounted expected cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying value of such assets. No impairment losses were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $69,178.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718 – “Stock Compensation” which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (stock options and common stock purchase warrants). The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of peer companies and other factors estimated over the expected term of the stock options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-40, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company, or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). All outstanding warrants as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019 were classified as equity.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This topic also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. There is no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2019 and December 30, 2018.
7
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Research and Development Costs
The Company’s research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Certain common stock equivalents were not included in the earnings (loss) per share calculation as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Warrants exercisable for 975,000 shares and options for 11,180,500 shares were excluded from weighted average common shares outstanding on a diluted basis.
Financial instruments
The Company carries cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable, at historical costs. The respective estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities approximate carrying values due to their current nature.
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 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 4 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASU Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”), and requires the recognition of revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the considerations to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also includes Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs- Contracts with Customers, which discussed the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, including the period of amortization of such costs. The new standard was adopted by the Company in our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018. The impact of adoption of the new standard on our revenue recognition was not significant, accordingly, there was no cumulative effect adjustment of adoption on January 1, 2018 retained earnings.
We have reviewed each of our current contracts for the related performance obligations and related revenue and expense recognition implications. A performance obligation under the new revenue standard is defined as a promise to provide a “distinct” good or service to a customer. The Company has determined that the assembly services is a performance obligation for which a transaction price has been established in the manufacturing agreement. The assembly of each unit stands on its own. Revenue related to assembly services is recognized as revenue when the assembled product is delivered to the customer. The Company has also determined that the performance obligation associated with our royalty revenues is the ongoing delivery of the license to which the royalties relate. Royalty revenues are recognized based on the contract royalty rate applied to licensee sales in the periods during which such sales occurred.
8
Note 4 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which created a new Topic, ASC Topic 842 and established the core principle that a lessee should recognize the assets, representing rights-of-use, and liabilities to make lease payments that arise from leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an election under which such assets and liabilities would not be recognized, and lease expense would be recognized generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. This ASU is effective for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASC Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 and such adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).” ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for nonemployee stock-based payment transactions. This ASU is effective for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2019 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 5 – Intellectual Property and License Agreement
On June 1, 2016, the Company entered into a ten-year License Agreement with Helidyne LLC for total consideration of $100,000 to utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in the manufacturing of planetary rotor expanders and the incorporation of same in the Company’s distributed electric power generation systems. The license agreement also grants the Company an exclusive license to sell the expanders whether manufactured by Helidyne or by the Company. The Company’s royalty obligation begins on the earlier of the commercialization of the product or three years from the effective date of the agreement. Once the royalty obligation begins, the minimum annual royalty is $50,000 for each of the first six years, and $100,000, per commercial year, for the remainder of the agreement. Helidyne has defaulted under the agreement. Royalties would be payable only if Helidyne performs as required, or if the Company elects to produce its own expanders using Helidyne technology. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, management of the Company evaluated the continued default by Helidyne and determined that Helidyne will not be able to perform under the license agreement for the foreseeable future. The Company’s license agreement continues to be active and the Company may utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in marketing its own products. Under the terms of the license agreement, the Company has the right to develop a prototype utilizing the Helidyne technology at its own cost. Due to the continued default by Helidyne and the potential cost of developing its own prototype, the Company has determined that the intangible asset related to the above license agreement is impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $69,178, which is 100% of the net carrying value. See Note 9.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, amortization expense was $7,374, and accumulated amortization of the intangible assets was $25,822 at December 31, 2018.

The notes are to be paid in one principal payment, along with any unpaid interest by December 31, 2021. Interest is payable semiannually at 10%. The notes are convertible into common stock at a price of $.20 per share through December 31, 2019, $.30 per share from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, and $.40 per share from January 1, 2021 through the maturity date of December 31, 2021.
In May 2019, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $10,000 to a stockholder in connection with a loan in the same amount. Consequently, Convertible Promissory Notes have been issued in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 during the first two quarters of 2019.

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies
On June 25, 2015, Company consultant Hank Leibowitz assigned to the Company a patent he obtained for a system and method for using high temperature sources in Rankine cycle power systems. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Leibowitz a 2% royalty for any and all revenues of products and/or project sales by the Company based on the subject patent.
On June 1, 2016, the Company entered into a ten-year License Agreement with Helidyne LLC to utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in order to use Helidyne expanders in Powerverde systems and to sell Helidyne expanders. As part of the licensing agreement the Company committed to purchase two 50 kW expanders, at a price of $25,000 each, on or before the sixth month anniversary of the agreement. The $50,000 was payable in two monthly installments of $25,000 beginning October 2016. The Company had made payments totaling $38,750, towards the purchase of the expanders, all of which was included in prepaid expense and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2016. Due to Helidyne’s failure to perform under the agreement, the Company has not made any further payments to Helidyne and does not intend to do so unless and until Helidyne performs as required. Helidyne has not objected to the Company’s position, and it is very unlikely that Helidyne will ever be able to perform.
The Company agreed to pay Helidyne LLC a royalty of 3% of sales, subject to a minimum annual royalty of $50,000 beginning on the earlier of commercialization of the product or three years from the effective date of the agreement. This minimum royalty would be payable only if Helidyne performs as required, which is very unlikely, or if the Company elects to produce its own expanders using Helidyne technology. The Company does intend to produce these expanders directly or through a contract manufacturer in the future. See Note 5.
On April 15, 2017, the Company entered into an assembly agreement with Liberty Plugins, Inc. (“Liberty”) to assemble Liberty’s Hydra electronic vehicle charging systems and ship completed Hydras to Liberty’s facility in Santa Barbara, California (the “Liberty Agreement”). Liberty has agreed to pay $1,000 for the first 10 Hydras assembled in a month, $750 per Hydra for the next 10 Hydras assembled per month and $500 per Hydra for each Hydra assembled above 20 per month. The Company has never assembled/shipped more than 10 Hydras in any month and does not expect to do so in the future. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has built and shipped 40 Hydras. Revenue for these products is reflected in the net revenue on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations as follows: $6,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $3,000 and $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Note 10 - Related Party Transactions
Since July 2010, the accounting firm J.L. Hofmann & Associates, P.A. (“JLHPA”), whose principal is our CFO John L. Hofmann, has provided financial consulting and accounting services to the Company. In December 2017, J.L. Hofmann & Associates, P.A. merged with Kabat, Schertzer, De La Torre, Taraboulos & Co, LLC (“KSDT”). The Company paid $18,913 and $18,330 for its services in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $9,300 and $7,600 in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Note 11 – Subsequent Events
The Company’s management evaluated subsequent events through August 9, 2019, in connection with the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued. There are no subsequent events to report as of this date.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
Readers are cautioned that the statements in this Report that are not descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of our management, as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to us as of the date of this Report. When used in this Report, the words “plan,” “will,” “may,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Although we believe these statements are reasonable, actual actions, operations and results could differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors included in our 2016 Annual Report, or other factors. We must caution, however, that this list of factors may not be exhaustive and that these or other factors, many of which are outside of our control, could have a material adverse effect on us and our ability to achieve our objectives. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
Critical Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements of PowerVerde, Inc. are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that effect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of financial statements.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This topic also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of June 30, 2019.
We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the condensed consolidated financial statements as general and administrative expense.
12
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from royalties and assembly services unrelated to the Company’s planned operations is recognized when the goods or services are transferred to the customer. Royalties are recognized as earned in the period the sales to which the royalties relate occur. Manufacturing assembly services are recognized as revenue when the assembled product is delivered to the customer. Revenues recognized under these agreements amount to 100% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-40, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). All outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were classified as equity.
Intellectual Property
The Company reviews intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of its long-lived assets, or related group of assets where applicable, in measuring whether the assets to be held and used will be realizable. In the event of impairment, the Company would discount the future cash flows using its then estimated incremental borrowing rate to estimate the amount of the impairment.
Stock-based compensation.
We account for stock-based compensation based on ASC Topic 718-Stock Compensation which requires expensing of stock options and other share-based payments based on the fair value of each stock option awarded. The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This model requires management to estimate the expected volatility, expected dividends, and expected term as inputs to the valuation model.
Overview
From January 1991 until October 2005, the Company devoted substantially all of its efforts and resources to research and development related to its unsuccessful Biotech Business, in particular the study of biological oxidation and antioxidation directed to the development of potential therapeutic products for the treatment of various diseases and conditions. In the most recent years, the Company’s research focused mainly on targeted antioxidant therapeutics and nutraceuticals. The Company, has generated only limited revenue from product sales and has relied primarily on equity financing, licensing revenues, and various debt instruments for its working capital. The Company has been unprofitable since its inception.
Following the cessation of material Biotech Business operations in October 2005, the Company turned its primary focus to seeking an appropriate merger partner for its public shell. This resulted in the February 2008 Merger with Vyrex. In March 2009, we assigned most of our Biotech intellectual property other than our rights under existing licensing agreements (the “Biotech IP”) to an investor in exchange for his agreement to pay all future expenses relating to the Biotech IP and to pay us 20% of any net proceeds received from future sale and/or licensing of the Biotech IP. We do not expect this arrangement to generate material revenues.
13
Since the Merger, we have focused on the development, testing and commercialization of our electric power systems, in particular, their applicability to thermal and natural gas pipeline operations. Our business is subject to significant risks, including the risks inherent in our research and development efforts, uncertainties associated with obtaining and enforcing patents and intense competition. See “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019.
Except as specifically noted to the contrary, the following discussion relates only to PowerVerde since, as a result of the Merger, the only historical financial statements presented for the Company in periods following the Merger are those of the operating entity, PowerVerde.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2018
Since inception, we have focused on the development, testing and commercialization of our clean energy Aelectric power generation systems. We had no revenues from sales in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018. Also, we generated $1,000 and $3,000 in revenue for assembly revenues under the Liberty Agreement in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively. In both years, we had substantial expenses due to our ongoing research and development activities and efforts to commercialize our systems, as well as substantial administrative expenses associated with our status as a public company. Our research and development expenses decreased by $454,800 primarily due to the stock options issued in the second quarter of 2018 that were not issued in 2019. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $15,337 in the second quarter of 2019 as compared to 2018, primarily because of decreased accounting and depreciation/amortization expense, as well as decreased legal fees. Primarily as a result of stock options issued and of the March 2018 expiration of our Biotech IP license agreement, our net loss was $160,840 and $549,642 in the second quarter of 2019 and in the second quarter of 2018, respectively. Substantial net losses are expected until we are able to successfully commercialize and market our systems, as to which there can be no assurance. Any taxes that might result from net income for financial reporting purposes would be eliminated through use of a portion of the Company’s net operating loss carryforward.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2018
Since inception, we have focused on the development, testing and commercialization of our clean energy electric power generation systems. We had no revenues from sales in the first six months of 2019 and 2018 – and we recorded $0 and $159,094 in Biotech IP licensing fees (based on pre-Merger contracts), respectively. Also, we generated $6,000 for assembly revenue under the Liberty Agreement in the first six months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. In both years, we had substantial expenses due to our ongoing research and development activities and efforts to commercialize our systems, as well as substantial administrative expenses associated with our status as a public company. Our research and development expenses decreased by $455,033 (87.0%) in the first six months of 2019 as compared to 2018. This decrease is primarily due to the stock options issued in the second quarter of 2018 that were not issued in 2019. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $24,932 (18.5%) in the first six months of 2019 as compared to 2018, due mainly to the decrease in accounting, depreciation/amortization and legal fees in 2018. Our net loss was $255,991 and $493,018 in the first six months of 2019, and in the first six months of 2018, respectively. This loss was due primarily to the expiration of our Biotech IP revenues in March 2018 and the issuance of stock options in the second quarter of 2018. Substantial net losses will continue until we are able to successfully commercialize and market our systems, as to which there can be no assurance. Any taxes that might result from net income for financial reporting purposes would be eliminated through use of a portion of the Company’s net operating loss carryforward.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations since inception principally through the sale of debt and equity securities. Also, from 2012 through March 2018 we received material amounts of Biotech IP licensing fees. As of June 30, 2019, we had working capital of $88,029 compared to a working capital deficit of $9,788 at December 31, 2018. Our improved working capital position is due primarily to the notes payable issued in the first quarter of 2019.
14
Our Biotech IP license agreement expired in March 2018 due to the expiration of our underlying patents. Consequently, we have no further material source of revenues. We are generating some revenue by using our employee to provide part-time skilled manufacturing services to third parties; however, we expect this arrangement to generate no more than $5,000 per month. We expect to generate substantial revenue from the 374 Water/Duke project in 2019 if we receive the expected purchase order; however, there can be no assurance that we will receive the purchase order.
We continue to seek funding from private equity and debt investors, as we need to promptly raise substantial additional capital in order to finance our plan of operations and commercialize our systems. There can be no assurance that we will be able to promptly raise the necessary funds. If we do not promptly raise the necessary funds, we may be forced to cease operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and President, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements.
All internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding of controls. Therefore, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over time. Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may also fail to prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—An Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
No Attestation Report
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent 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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no significant changes in internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
15
None.
There are no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the 2018 Annual Report. Please refer to that section for disclosure regarding the risks and uncertainties related to our business.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
In the first quarter of 2019, we issued Convertible Promissory Notes totaling $290,000 to stockholders in connection with a loan in the same amount. The notes are to be paid in one principal payment, along with any unpaid interest, by December 31, 2021. Interest is payable semiannually at 10%. The notes are convertible into common stock at a price of $.20 per share through December 31, 2019, $.30 per share from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, and $.40 per share from January 1, 2021 through the maturity date of December 31, 2021.
In the second quarter of 2019, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $10,000 to a stockholder in connection with a loan in the same amount.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.

| Going Concern | Note 2 – Going Concern
We have financed our operations since inception through the sale of debt and equity securities and through Biotech IP licensing revenues which expired March 2018. As of June 30, 2019, we had working capital of $88,029 compared to a working capital deficit of $9,788 at December 31, 2018. This improvement in working capital is due primarily to the sale of related party notes payable during this period.
The Company has historically relied upon unrelated and related party debt and equity financing to fund its cash flow shortages and will require either additional debt or equity financing to sustain its operations. The Company’s revenues through 2018 were derived mainly from royalties under its Biotech licensing agreement, which expired in March 2018. Those factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company continues to seek funding from private debt and equity investors, as it needs to promptly raise substantial additional capital in order to finance its plan of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to promptly raise the necessary funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company does not raise the necessary funds, it may be forced to cease operations. |

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to establish a new business involving the development and commercialization of clean energy electric power generation systems, and none of its planned principal operations have commenced. However, royalties from licenses unrelated to planned principal operations were recognized as revenue through March 2018, when the underlying license agreement terminated. No revenues from this planned principal operation have been generated.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of balances due from assembly services. The Company monitors accounts receivable and provides allowances when considered necessary. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, accounts receivable were considered to be fully collectible. Accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts was provided.
Revenue Recognition
Royalties are recognized as earned in the period the sales to which the royalties relate occur. Manufacturing assembly services are recognized as revenue when the assembled product is delivered to the customer. Revenues recognized under these agreements amount to 100% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for major betterments and additions are capitalized, while replacement, maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets (property, equipment and intellectual property) used in operations when impairment indicators are present and the undiscounted expected cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying value of such assets. No impairment losses were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $69,178.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718 – “Stock Compensation” which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (stock options and common stock purchase warrants). The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of peer companies and other factors estimated over the expected term of the stock options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-40, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company, or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). All outstanding warrants as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019 were classified as equity.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This topic also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. There is no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2019 and December 30, 2018.
Research and Development Costs
The Company’s research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Certain common stock equivalents were not included in the earnings (loss) per share calculation as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Warrants exercisable for 975,000 shares and options for 11,180,500 shares were excluded from weighted average common shares outstanding on a diluted basis.
Financial instruments
The Company carries cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable, at historical costs. The respective estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities approximate carrying values due to their current nature.
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 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASU Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”), and requires the recognition of revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the considerations to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also includes Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs- Contracts with Customers, which discussed the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, including the period of amortization of such costs. The new standard was adopted by the Company in our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018. The impact of adoption of the new standard on our revenue recognition was not significant, accordingly, there was no cumulative effect adjustment of adoption on January 1, 2018 retained earnings.
We have reviewed each of our current contracts for the related performance obligations and related revenue and expense recognition implications. A performance obligation under the new revenue standard is defined as a promise to provide a “distinct” good or service to a customer. The Company has determined that the assembly services is a performance obligation for which a transaction price has been established in the manufacturing agreement. The assembly of each unit stands on its own. Revenue related to assembly services is recognized as revenue when the assembled product is delivered to the customer. The Company has also determined that the performance obligation associated with our royalty revenues is the ongoing delivery of the license to which the royalties relate. Royalty revenues are recognized based on the contract royalty rate applied to licensee sales in the periods during which such sales occurred.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which created a new Topic, ASC Topic 842 and established the core principle that a lessee should recognize the assets, representing rights-of-use, and liabilities to make lease payments that arise from leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an election under which such assets and liabilities would not be recognized, and lease expense would be recognized generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. This ASU is effective for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASC Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 and such adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).” ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for nonemployee stock-based payment transactions. This ASU is effective for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2019 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements. |

On June 1, 2016, the Company entered into a ten-year License Agreement with Helidyne LLC for total consideration of $100,000 to utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in the manufacturing of planetary rotor expanders and the incorporation of same in the Company’s distributed electric power generation systems. The license agreement also grants the Company an exclusive license to sell the expanders whether manufactured by Helidyne or by the Company. The Company’s royalty obligation begins on the earlier of the commercialization of the product or three years from the effective date of the agreement. Once the royalty obligation begins, the minimum annual royalty is $50,000 for each of the first six years, and $100,000, per commercial year, for the remainder of the agreement. Helidyne has defaulted under the agreement. Royalties would be payable only if Helidyne performs as required, or if the Company elects to produce its own expanders using Helidyne technology. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, management of the Company evaluated the continued default by Helidyne and determined that Helidyne will not be able to perform under the license agreement for the foreseeable future. The Company’s license agreement continues to be active and the Company may utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in marketing its own products. Under the terms of the license agreement, the Company has the right to develop a prototype utilizing the Helidyne technology at its own cost. Due to the continued default by Helidyne and the potential cost of developing its own prototype, the Company has determined that the intangible asset related to the above license agreement is impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $69,178, which is 100% of the net carrying value. See Note 9.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, amortization expense was $7,374, and accumulated amortization of the intangible assets was $25,822 at December 31, 2018. |

In the first quarter of 2019, the Company issued Convertible Promissory Notes totaling $290,000 to stockholders. The notes are to be paid in one principal payment, along with any unpaid interest by December 31, 2021. Interest is payable semiannually at 10%. The notes are convertible into common stock at a price of $.20 per share through December 31, 2019, $.30 per share from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, and $.40 per share from January 1, 2021 through the maturity date of December 31, 2021.
In May 2019, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $10,000 to a stockholder in connection with a loan in the same amount. Consequently, Convertible Promissory Notes have been issued in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 during the first two quarters of 2019.

On June 25, 2015, Company consultant Hank Leibowitz assigned to the Company a patent he obtained for a system and method for using high temperature sources in Rankine cycle power systems. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Leibowitz a 2% royalty for any and all revenues of products and/or project sales by the Company based on the subject patent.
On June 1, 2016, the Company entered into a ten-year License Agreement with Helidyne LLC to utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in order to use Helidyne expanders in Powerverde systems and to sell Helidyne expanders. As part of the licensing agreement the Company committed to purchase two 50 kW expanders, at a price of $25,000 each, on or before the sixth month anniversary of the agreement. The $50,000 was payable in two monthly installments of $25,000 beginning October 2016. The Company had made payments totaling $38,750, towards the purchase of the expanders, all of which was included in prepaid expense and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2016. Due to Helidyne’s failure to perform under the agreement, the Company has not made any further payments to Helidyne and does not intend to do so unless and until Helidyne performs as required. Helidyne has not objected to the Company’s position, and it is very unlikely that Helidyne will ever be able to perform.
The Company agreed to pay Helidyne LLC a royalty of 3% of sales, subject to a minimum annual royalty of $50,000 beginning on the earlier of commercialization of the product or three years from the effective date of the agreement. This minimum royalty would be payable only if Helidyne performs as required, which is very unlikely, or if the Company elects to produce its own expanders using Helidyne technology. The Company does intend to produce these expanders directly or through a contract manufacturer in the future. See Note 5.
On April 15, 2017, the Company entered into an assembly agreement with Liberty Plugins, Inc. (“Liberty”) to assemble Liberty’s Hydra electronic vehicle charging systems and ship completed Hydras to Liberty’s facility in Santa Barbara, California (the “Liberty Agreement”). Liberty has agreed to pay $1,000 for the first 10 Hydras assembled in a month, $750 per Hydra for the next 10 Hydras assembled per month and $500 per Hydra for each Hydra assembled above 20 per month. The Company has never assembled/shipped more than 10 Hydras in any month and does not expect to do so in the future. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has built and shipped 40 Hydras. Revenue for these products is reflected in the net revenue on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations as follows: $6,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $3,000 and $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |

| Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Certain common stock equivalents were not included in the earnings (loss) per share calculation as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Warrants exercisable for 975,000 shares and options for 11,180,500 shares were excluded from weighted average common shares outstanding on a diluted basis. |

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 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
