ACCREDITED SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2024
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Accredited Solutions, Inc. (the “Company” or “Accredited”), formerly known as Keyser Resources, Inc., Lone Star Gold, Inc. and Good Hemp, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 26, 2007.
On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase Diamond Creek Group, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company which sells the Diamond Creek brand of high alkaline water products, for a total purchase price of $
Effective May 11, 2022,
Effective June 1, 2023, the PXS Merger was rescinded, such that all securities issued by the Company in connection with the PXS Merger were cancelled and the ownership of PXS returned to its prior owners.
PXS is being treated as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s operations are centered on those of Diamond Creek Group and its bottled water products.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company follows the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and has a year-end of December 31st.
Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Accredited Solutions, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, Diamond Creek Group, LLC, and its former subsidiary Petro X Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Condensed Financial Statements
The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2023, was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

| Table of Contents |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the recoverability of long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. Our impairment testing of goodwill is performed separately from our impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles. The annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future cash flows and operating plans. We believe such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace participants. We evaluate a number of factors to determine whether an indefinite life is appropriate, including the competitive environment, market share, brand history, product life cycles, operating plans and the macroeconomic environment of the countries in which the brands are sold. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment is performed and indefinite-lived brands may be adjusted to a determinable life. The cost of intangible assets with determinable useful lives is amortized to reflect the pattern of economic benefits consumed, either on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated periods benefited. Patents, technology and other intangibles with contractual terms are generally amortized over their respective legal or contractual lives. Customer relationships, brands and other non-contractual intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized over periods generally ranging from 5 to 30 years. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment is performed and lives of intangible assets with determinable lives may be adjusted.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The FASB issued ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:
- Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
- Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include demand deposits, money market funds, and all highly liquid debt instructions with original maturities of three months or less.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Company’s management plans to assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Trade accounts receivable consists of product sales to customers. Trade accounts receivable are generally due 30 days after issuance of the invoice. Receivables past due more than 120 days are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on specific circumstances of the customer. At June 30, 2024, an allowance was not deemed necessary.
Derivative Financial Instruments
For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Black Scholes valuation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Commitment and Contingencies
The Company follows ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
The Company follows ASC 440-10, Commitments, to report accounting for certain commitments.
Net Loss Per Common Share
The Company computes net income or loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 Earnings per Share. Under the provisions of the Earnings per Share Topic ASC, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 Income Taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that would otherwise be recorded for income tax benefits primarily relating to operating loss carryforwards as realization cannot be determined to be more likely than not.

The statement establishes a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements. Also, the statement implements a process for measuring those tax positions which meet the recognition threshold of being ultimately sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. There are no uncertain tax positions taken by the Company on its tax returns and the adoption of the statement had no material impact to the Company’s financial statements. The Company files tax returns in the US and states in which it has operations and is subject to taxation. Tax years subsequent to 2019 remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax jurisdictions.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606. The Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company recognizes revenue upon completion of our performance obligations or expiration of the contractual time to use services such as professional service hours purchased in bulk for a given time period.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has recurring operating losses, an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficiency. Management’s plans include raising capital in the debt and equity markets. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until its operations become established enough to be considered reliably profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficit of $
The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION OF PETRO X SOLTUIONS, INC.
Effective May 11, 2022, the Company consummated a plan and agreement of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Petro X Solutions, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“PXS”), pursuant to which PXS became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company issued
Due to the effects of the “reverse merger” acquisition of PXS occurring effective May 11, 2022, in accordance with ASC 805 Business Combinations, the presentation of the financial statements represents the continuation of PXS, the accounting acquirer, except for the legal capital structure. Historical shareholders’ equity of the Company, the accounting acquiree, has been adjusted to reflect the recapitalization. Retained earnings (deficit) of PXS, the accounting acquirer have been carried forward after the acquisition and operations prior to the merger are those of PXS, the accounting acquirer. Earnings per share for periods prior to the merger have been adjusted to reflect the recapitalization.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging and determined that the instrument should be classified as a liability since the conversion option becomes effective at issuance resulting in there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Binomial pricing model to calculate the fair value as of June 30, 2024. The Binomial model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of each convertible note is estimated using the Binomial valuation model.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the assumptions utilized in estimating fair values of the liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
SPECIAL NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our security holders and to the public. This report, therefore, contains statements about future events and expectations which are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the statements about our plans, objectives, expectations and prospects under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” You can expect to identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “expect,” “intend,” “seek” and other similar expressions. Any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement. Although we believe that the plans, objectives, expectations and prospects reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, those statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, and we can give no assurance that our plans, objectives, expectations and prospects will be achieved.
Important factors that might cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements are contained in the “Risk Factors” section of and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion of our results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.
Overview
On February 6, 2019, the Company acquired trademarks and intellectual property, which included all rights and trade secrets to the hemp-derived CBD-infused line of consumer beverages sold under the “Good Hemp” brand. On April 30, 2019, the Company acquired the “CANNA HEMP” and “CANNA” trademarks including all rights and trade secrets and related inventory.
On August 24, 2020, with an effective date of July 1, 2020, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Paul Hervey (“Hervey”), an individual, for the purpose of cultivating hemp on approximately 9 acres of farmland and in approximately 3,700 square feet of greenhouse space in North Carolina (referred to as “Olin Farms”). In October 2021, Olin Farms ceased operations, and the limited liability company joint venture entity was dissolved.
On February 9, 2021, the Company formed Good Hemp Wellness, LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of North Carolina, to sell CBD products to customers through chiropractic offices. In October 2021, this company was dissolved in North Carolina, and it is being treated as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. In February 2023, the Company sold all of its Good Hemp-related to JanBella Group, LLC, a company controlled by the Company’s current controlling shareholder, William Alessi (then, a third-party). In consideration of such assets, Mr. Alessi forgave $5,000 of indebtedness of the Company.
On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase Diamond Creek Group, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company which sells the Diamond Creek brand of high alkaline water products, for a total purchase price of $643,000. On April 2, 2021, the Company closed the acquisition and paid the initial $500,000 portion of the purchase price, and on April 23, 2021, paid the $143,000 purchase price balance.
Effective May 11, 2022, the Company acquired, by merger, Petro X Solutions, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“PXS”). In the transaction, the Company issued a total of 120,000,000 shares of its common stock. PXS markets competitively-priced, environmentally-friendly products that are designed to work as well as or better than their toxic competitors. Its primary product, EnviroXstreamTM, is a plant-based, non-toxic, safe, yet powerful, cleaner/degreaser technology that expedites the natural bio-degradation process of hydrocarbons and other compounds. EnviroXstreamTM is currently a California South Coast AQMD-Certified Clean Air Solvent, and in the past has been, an EPA-designated Safer Choice product. EnviroXstreamTM distinguishes itself by its efficacy, which is buttressed by its “green” credentials.
Effective June 1, 2023, the PXS acquisition was rescinded, such that all securities issued by the Company in connection with the PXS acquisition were cancelled and the ownership of PXS returned to its prior owners.
PXS is being treated as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.
Current Plan of Business
Since the June 1, 2023, rescission of the PXS acquisition, the Company has re-focused its operating plans on expanding its Diamond Creek Water business. However, without additional capital, it is unlikely that such business will expand rapidly, if at all.

As reflected in the financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,219,468 at June 30, 2024, a net loss of $2,152,771 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and $36,490 of cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of the interim financial statements.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different future conditions.

Item 4. Control and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC’s rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to the chief executive and interim chief financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of such date. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that the Company continues to have the following deficiencies which represent a material weakness:
| · | The Company does not have a majority of independent directors; |
| · | Lack of in-house personnel with the technical knowledge to identify and address some of the reporting issues surrounding certain complex or non-routine transactions. With material, complex and non-routine transactions, management has and will continue to seek guidance from third-party experts and/or consultants to gain a thorough understanding of these transactions; |
| · | Insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting; and |
| · | Insufficient written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. |
| · | To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures: as funding permits, the Company will add sufficient accounting personnel to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements; the Company will hire staff technically proficient at applying U.S. GAAP to financial transactions and reporting; and upon the hiring of additional accounting personnel, the Company will develop and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures. |
The additional hiring is contingent upon the Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt and the results of its operations. Management hopes to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
