Notes

to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

June

30, 2023 and 2022


NOTE

1 - ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND LIQUIDITY


Organizationand Operations

On March 26, 2020, Bubblr Holdings Ltd. (a UK company formed on February 18, 2016) merged into U.S. Wireless Online, Inc. (“UWRL”), a Wyoming corporation formed on October 22, 2019, and became a 100% subsidiary of UWRL. On March 30, 2021, the Company’s corporate name was changed to Bubblr, Inc. (“the Company”).

Bubblr, Inc. is a Mobile Application software company that is currently developing its disruptive Internet Search Mechanism and seeking license opportunities for a next-generation solution designed to create an alternative economic model.

GoingConcern Matters


The

accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplates the Company’s continuation as a going concern. The Company incurred a net comprehensive loss of $2,017,214 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and has an accumulated deficit of $14,876,334 as of June 30, 2023. In addition, current liabilities exceed current assets by $1,781,567 as of June 30, 2023.

Management intends to raise additional operating funds through equity and/or debt offerings. However, there can be no assurance management will be successful in its endeavors.

There are no assurances that the Company will be able to either (1) achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or (2) obtain additional financing through either private placement, public offerings, and/or bank financing necessary to support its working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private placements, public offerings, and/or bank financing are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available to the Company, it may be required to curtail or cease its operations.

Due to uncertainties related to these matters, there exists substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE

2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basisof Presentation

The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

Principlesof Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Bubblr Holdings Ltd., Bubblr Ltd., and Bubblr CLN Ltd. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

| F-6 |

| --- |

Useof Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 expenses during the reporting period. Some of these judgments can be subjective and complex, and, consequently, actual results may differ from these estimates.

ConvertibleFinancial Instruments

The Company bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not remeasured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as that term is described under applicable GAAP.

FairValue of Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Quoted prices in non-active markets or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, observable inputs other than quoted prices, and inputs that are not directly observable but are corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The

carrying value of the Company’s current assets and liabilities are deemed to be their fair value due to the short-term maturity and realization. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired warrant derivative liabilities, which are Level 3 financial instruments that are adjusted to fair market value on reporting dates. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the warrant liabilities balances were $201,010 and $198,479, respectively. There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy leveling during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

StockBased Compensation

We follow ASC Topic 718, Compensation–Stock Compensation, which prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee and non-employee services are acquired. Share-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on the stock awards’ fair values on the grant date. That expense is recognized over the period required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) issued as compensation in accordance with the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan are deemed to be unissued until fully vested. RSU compensation is recognized as expense over the vesting period. Upon repurchase of the award, any unrecognized compensation, net of cash payments, is expensed immediately. Awards forfeited due to unfulfillment of obligations, such as termination of employment prior to the award being fully vested, for no cash or other consideration, are not recognized as an expense and any previously recognized costs are reversed in the period of forfeiture.

Employees– We account for share-based compensation under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to employees, including the grant of employee stock options, to be calculated based on its fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.

| F-7 |

| --- |

Nonemployees- Under the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”), we account for share-based compensation to non-employees under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to be calculated based on the fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

CommonStock Purchase Warrants and Derivative Financial Instruments


Common stock purchase warrants and other derivative financial instruments are classified as equity if the contracts (1) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (2) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). Contracts which (1) 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), (2) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (3) that contain reset provisions that do not qualify for the scope exception are classified as liabilities. The Company assesses the classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.


Basicand Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Pursuant to ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic net income and net loss per share are computed by dividing the net income and net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income and net loss per share is the same as basic net income and net loss per share when their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect due to our continuing net losses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the following outstanding stock was excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

IncomeTaxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

UK Taxes

We do not consider ourselves to be engaged in a trade or business in the UK and, as such, do not expect to be subject to UK corporate income taxation. We have subsidiaries based in the UK that are subject to the tax laws of that country. Under current law, those subsidiaries are taxed at the applicable corporate income tax rates. Should any UK subsidiaries be deemed to undertake business activities in the US, they would be subject to US corporate income tax in respect of their US activities only. Relief would then be available against the UK tax liabilities in respect of the overseas taxes arising from US activities. At present, this is not applicable as our UK subsidiaries only undertake activities in the UK. Our UK subsidiaries file separate UK income tax returns.

UK Tax Risk

Companies that are incorporated outside the UK may become subject to UK taxes in a number of circumstances, including circumstances in which (1) they are deemed resident in the UK for tax purposes by reason of their central management and control being exercised from the UK or (2) they are treated as carrying on a trade, investing or carrying on any other business activity in the UK, whether or not through a UK Permanent Establishment (“PE”).

In addition, the Finance Act 2015 introduced a new tax known as the diverted profits tax (“DPT”), which is charged at 25% of any “taxable diverted profit.” The DPT has had an effect since April 1, 2015, and may apply in circumstances including (1) where arrangements are designed to ensure that a non-UK resident company does not carry on a trade in the UK through a PE; and (2) where a tax reduction is obtained through the involvement of entities or transactions lacking economic substance. We intend to operate in such a manner that none of our companies should be subject to the UK DPT and that none of our companies (other than those companies incorporated in the UK) should: (1) be treated as resident in the UK for tax purposes; (2) carry on a trade, invest or carry on any other business activity in the UK (whether or not through a UK PE).

However, this result is based on certain legal and factual determinations, and since the scope and the basis upon which the DPT will be applied by HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) in the UK remains uncertain and since applicable law and regulations do not conclusively define the activities that constitute conducting a trade, investment or business activity in the UK (whether or not through a UK PE), and since we cannot exclude the possibility that there will be a change in law that adversely affects the analysis, HMRC might successfully assert a contrary position. The terms of an income tax treaty between the UK and the home country of the relevant Bubblr subsidiary, if any, could contain additional protections against UK tax.

Any arrangements between UK-resident entities of Bubblr and other entities of Bubblr are subject to the UK transfer pricing regime. Consequently, if any agreement between a UK resident entity of Bubblr and any other Bubblr entity (whether that entity is resident in or outside of the UK) is found not to be on arm’s length terms and, as a result, a UK tax advantage is being obtained, an adjustment will be required to compute UK taxable profits as if such an agreement were on arm’s length terms. Any transfer pricing adjustment could adversely impact the tax charge incurred by the relevant UK resident entities of Bubblr.

RecentAccounting Pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial statements.

Loan 1.

The loan is non-interest bearing and repayable on demand.

On May 23, 2022, the Company entered an amendment to the Loan Agreement between Bubblr Limited and Mr. Morris to change the loan from a demand loan to have a maturity date on the earlier of (i) the completion of an offering by Bubblr, Inc. in the amount of no less than $7,500,000 in a public offering, or (ii) two years from the date of the amendment.

In addition, on a date no later than five (5) business days from the completion of bridge financing of no less than $1.5 million USD, the Company shall pay to Mr. Morris an amount equal to £115,000 GBP as an installment payment on the principal of the Loan, and the balance of the principal of the Loan shall be paid at the Maturity Date.

On

September 6, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment (the “Amendment”) with Bubblr Limited and Mr. Morris to add $60,000 (£52,088) to the principal of the loan in exchange for Mr. Morris canceling his Special 2019 Series A Preferred Stock, which has super-voting rights.

On

December 20, 2022, the Company entered into a third amendment (the “Amendment”) with Bubblr Limited and Mr. Morris to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the loan by $71,540 (£59,543) in exchange for the Company assigning advances receivables of $71,540 (£59,543) whereon Mr. Morris is entitled to amounts received pursuant to such receivables and will bear the risk of non-payment with respect to such receivables. After this assignment, the Company will have no right to receive any amounts collected with respect to such receivables and will have no liability for non-payment of the receivables or any costs of collections.

NOTE

9 - WARRANT LIABILITY

The Company analyzed the warrants issued in connection with the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (see Note 10) for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the instruments should be classified as a liability due to reset provisions and variability in exercise price resulting in there being no fixed value or explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon exercise. ASC 815 requires us to assess the fair market value of the derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item.

The Company determined our warrant liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement during the year based on management’s estimate of the expected future cash flows required to settle the liabilities and used the Black Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of June 30, 2023. The Black Scholes 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 warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

| F-13 |

| --- |

For the period ended June 30, 2023, the estimated fair values of the warrant liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will vote together with the common stock on an as-converted basis subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations (as set forth in the Certificate of Designation).

Each

share of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the issuance at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of shares of Common Stock (subject to Beneficial Ownership Limitations) determined by dividing the Stated Value of $1,200 of such share by the Conversion Price of $0.3202.

2022Equity Incentive Plan

Restricted Stock Units

On

May 25, 2022, our board of directors and majority shareholders approved the adoption of the Bubblr, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Equity Incentive Plan”) and, unless earlier terminated, will continue until May 25, 2032. A total of 28,400,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan. The purpose of the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan is to foster and promote our long-term financial success and increase stockholder value by motivating performance through incentive compensation. The 2022 Equity Incentive Plan is intended to encourage participants to acquire and maintain ownership interests in our company and to attract and retain the services of talented individuals upon whose judgment and special efforts the successful conduct of our business is largely dependent.

If the employee is terminated for cause, the employee will forfeit the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) awarded to date.

During

the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued pursuant to the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, a total of 8,400,000 RSUs to two Company executives pursuant to their employment agreements. (See Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies) 4,200,000 shares of performance-based stock compensation were scheduled to vest on each of June 1, 2023 and June 1, 2024, respectively. The Company had elected to treat the award as a single award of 8,400,000 shares that vests ratably over the vesting period.

The

RSUs were valued at $2,259,600, based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the respective grant dates of the agreements, which was $0.269 per share, and were to be recognized as compensation expense over their two-year vesting period on a straight-line basis. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $659,052 and had unrecognized stock compensation of $1,600,548 as of December 31, 2022.

On

January 31, 2023 (the “Termination Date”), the award of 8,400,000 RSUs was forfeited by the executives upon their termination of employment. Pursuant to ASC-718-10-30-12, no compensation cost is recognized for instruments that employees forfeit for no cash or other consideration because a service condition or a performance condition is not satisfied. Further, the value of instruments for which the requisite service is not rendered prior to the award being fully vested is not recognized as an expense, and any previously recognized costs are reversed upon forfeiture. As a result, the remaining unvested stock compensation of $1,600,548 was not recognized, and prior year recognition of $659,052 in compensation was reversed on the Termination Date.

Stock options

On April 1, 2023, the Company granted options for the purchase of our Common stock to certain employees and non-employees as consideration for services rendered. The terms of the stock option grants are determined by our Board of Directors consistent with our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan which the Board adopted May 22, 2022. Our stock option grant general policy is options vest 40% on Grant Date, which is 90 days after commencement of service (typically the hire date) and the remaining vest monthly over 2 years and have a maximum term of ten years. Two executives with long term service in excess of 2 years and nine months were 100% vested on Grant Date.

The Company determined our option liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement during the year based on management’s estimate of the expected future cash flows required to settle the liabilities and used the Black Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of the Grant Date of the options. The Black Scholes 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 warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

For the period ended June 30, 2023, the estimated fair values of the warrant liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

SCHEDULE

OF ESTIMATED FAIR VALUES OF WARRANT LIABILITIES

Six Months Ended
June 30, 2023
Expected term 5.00<br> – 5.00 years
Expected average volatility 195<br> - 197%
Expected dividend yield 0 %
Risk-free interest rate 3.65<br> – 3.73%

The following summarizes the stock options activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

At the heart of the platform’s efficiency is the use of Zero Party Data, derived from suppliers registered through licensees. This data is continually updated in real-time, ensuring highly accurate and up-to-date information, unlike traditional search engines that rely on less reliable web-crawled data.

The platform’s unique subscription model will enable merchants to be listed on the platform, generating recurring revenue for Ethical Web AI.

Patents


Internet-Based Search Mechanism for Goods and Services

We have created a new Internet-Based Search Mechanism, which has been granted a patent in South Africa (2016/06947), New Zealand (725014), the United States of America (‘Utility Patent No. U.S. 10977387, Canada (2962520), and Australia (2015248619), and we have patents pending on the same processes in the European Union (15723990.6) and the United Kingdom (PCT/GB2015/051130).

This utility patent grants Ethical Web AI the advantage of asynchronous search and client anonymity, making its apps uniquely secure and user-friendly. The patent’s title, “Internet Search Mechanism for Goods and Services that Only Works in Apps,” reflects the Company’s commitment to providing app-exclusive services that enhance user privacy and security.

2. Contextual Enveloping of Dynamic Hypertext Links

US Patent Application No 17/980298: Contextual Enveloping of Dynamic Hypertext Links is a sister patent to our approved Internet-Based Search Mechanism patent that will define an alternative mobile search system purely for information rather than goods and service. This utility patent represents a significant advancement in the user experience, enhancing access to Chat GPT through Ethical Web AI’s AI Seek app. The patent enables anonymous access to Chat GPT, delivering results in web pages that can be shared across various platforms.

Competition

The space for online marketplaces and ad networks is rapidly evolving. The Advertising Technology (Ad-tech) industry includes all kinds of tools, software platforms (Google, Facebook), agencies, data brokers, etc. It facilitates targeted advertisements that have become exponentially more invasive over the past decade due to massive amounts of personal data collection. It is a complex and opaque ecosystem that tracks, profiles, discriminates (both personal and business), and manipulates for profit. It is a multi-billion-dollar industry that is now facing litigation, investigations, and new regulations to curb its practices.

We face intense competition from companies with much larger capital resources than us, and, as a result, we could struggle to attract users and gain market share. Many of our existing or future competitors have greater financial resources and greater brand name recognition than we do and, as a result, may be better positioned to adapt to changes in the industry or the economy as a whole. We will strive to advance our technology in each of these sectors ahead of our competitors to gain market share. We also face intense competition in attracting and retaining qualified employees. Our ability to continue to compete effectively will depend upon our ability to attract new employees, retain and motivate our existing employees, and compensate employees competitively. We face significant competition in several aspects of our business, and such competition might increase, particularly in the market for networks and online marketplaces. A key advantage against better-resourced competitors is provisioning our technology and related acquisitions as an Open Source SAAS platform. This pushes all of the consumer and merchant marketing responsibility to the registered partners.

Our competitors may announce new products, services or enhancements that better address changing industry standards or the needs of users, such as mobile access or different market focus. Any such increased competition could cause pricing pressure, loss of business or decreased user activity, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

We believe that we have competitive strengths and protection via our IP, which is defensible under the umbrella protection of our granted patents.

Generaland administrative

General and administrative expenses consist mainly of compensation and costs associated with non-specific costs of running the business. These include, but are not limited to, the office costs, computer software, and telecoms.

The increase in general and administrative costs of $990,131 was primarily due to accrued compensation, director fees for new executives, and stock options awarded in the three months ended June 30, 2023, offset by the forfeiture of restricted stock units resulting in a reversal of prior year expense in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Professionalfees

Professional fees consist of costs in relation to legal, accounting, and consultants.

The decrease in professional fees of $1,705,423 is primarily due to issuing shares of common stock valued at $1,993,081 in 2022 for consulting services.

Salesand Marketing

Sales and marketing costs are costs incurred specifically in relation to fees and expenses for investor relations, advertising, marketing, press releases, and public relations.

The cost increase is primarily due to new investor relations services contracts paid for by issuing shares of common stock.

Amortizationand depreciation

A significant portion of the amortization and depreciation costs are from the amortization of patents and intellectual property. Most of the patents and intellectual property are held in the UK subsidiary, Bubblr Ltd.

| 6 |

| --- |

The reduction in costs is primarily due to lower amortization of Intellectual Property as IP added in 2016 of $1.68m (£1.3m) is fully amortized.

Researchand Development

Costs incurred in relation to the development of the Company’s platform include costs associated with development staff and specialist software for product development and deployments.

InterestIncome

The Company earns interest income from its cash reserves and advances receivable. The decrease of interest is due to the loss of interest from the Company’s advances receivables, which were repaid in 2022.

InterestExpense

Interest expense consists of interest on borrowings, a Company vehicle, convertible notes, and related party loans.

Gainon change in fair value of warrant derivative liability.

The fair value market price of the common stock decreased from $0.17 to $0.14 and $0.42 to $0.24 in the three months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. If the warrants were exercised at their respective exercise prices determined at issue, the Company would realize a gain of $69,988 and $275,178 in the three months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The fair value market price of the common stock increased from $0.12 to $0.14 and decreased from $0.34 to $0.24 in the six months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. If the warrants were exercised at their respective exercise prices determined at issue, the Company would realize a loss of $2,531 and a gain of $251,287 in the six months ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Foreigncurrency translation gain (loss)

The gains and losses on foreign currency translation are due to the fluctuations in the U.S. dollar and British Pound Sterling exchange rates.

NetLoss after income tax

The net loss after income tax was $1,703,217 and $2,358,878 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The net loss after income tax was $1,957,553 and $3,389,209 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

The following table provides selected financial data about our Company on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

June<br> 30, 2023 December<br> 31, 2022 Change
Current Assets $ 13,248 $ 42,417 $ (29,169 ) (69 )%
Current Liabilities 1,794,815 595,856 1,198,959 201
Working Capital Deficit $ (1,781,567 ) $ (553,439 ) $ (1,228,128 ) 222 %

CurrentAssets

Current assets consist of cash and advances receivable.

The decrease in current assets of $29,169 was primarily due to a decrease in cash of $27,026.

CurrentLiabilities

Current Liabilities consist of accounts payable, accrued liabilities and loans.

The increase in current liabilities of $1,198,959 was primarily due to increases of $52,431 in accounts payable, $68,750 in accrued director fees, $505,474 in accrued wages and salaries, $154,185 for a settlement agreement with former executives, and $361,674 in additional related-party loans.

WorkingCapital Deficit

The working capital deficit increased by $1,228,128.

Liquidity

During the last two years, and through the date of this Report, we have faced an increasingly challenging liquidity situation that has limited our ability to execute our operating plan. We will need to obtain capital to continue operations. There is no assurance that we will be able to secure such funding on acceptable terms.

As no revenues are generated from our current operations, we will require additional debt or capital to continue operating and expanding our business. Sources of additional financing or arrangements with third parties may include equity or debt financing, bank loans, related-party loans, or revolving credit facilities. We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. Unless we can attract additional investment, our operating as a going concern is in doubt.

We voluntarily file annual, quarterly, and current reports with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities of ours more time-consuming and costly. To meet the needs to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act, we will need an investment of capital.

| 8 |

| --- |

If we are unable to obtain sufficient additional capital, we may have to cease filing our SEC reports and cease operations completely. If we obtain additional funds by selling any of our equity securities or by issuing common stock to pay current or future obligations, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, and stockholders may experience additional dilution, or the equity securities may have rights preferences or privileges senior to the common stock.

Cash on Hand $ 5,507 $ 55,932 $ (50,425 ) (90 )%

OperatingActivities

The decrease in net cash used in operating activities of $598,465 was primarily due to the award of restricted stock units awarded in 2022 and forfeited in 2023.

InvestingActivities

Net cash used in investing activities was on Patents and Trademarks.

FinancingActivities

The reduction in net cash provided by financing activities of $414,252 was primarily due to $789,000 received in 2022 from the issuance of Series C Preferred Stock, offset by an increase of proceeds of $364,976 from related party loans in 2023 from 2022.

Cashon Hand

The reduction of cash on hand was $50,425.

The Company is currently exploring future fundraising options, including equity, debt, the sale of/or the licensing of the Company’s Patent(s) and/or IP, with a holdback of the Company’s rights to use the IP to secure funding for operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.


CriticalAccounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Preparing these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Report, we believe that the following accounting policies are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

| 9 |

| --- |

We believe our most critical accounting policies and estimates relate to the following:

Foreign<br> Currency Translations
Intangible<br> Assets
Long-lived<br> Assets
Income<br> Taxes
Stock-based<br> Compensation
Common<br> Stock Purchase Warrants and Derivative Financial Instruments
Convertible<br> Financial Instruments
Fair<br> Value of Financial Instruments

ForeignCurrency Translations

The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiaries is generally their local currency of Great British Pounds (GBP). Local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date, and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average rates of exchange during the period. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded directly into accumulated other comprehensive income.

IntangibleAssets

The cost of intangible assets with determinable useful lives is amortized to reflect the pattern of economic benefits consumed on a straight-line basis over the estimated periods benefited. Patents, technology and other intangibles with contractual terms are generally amortized over their respective legal or contractual lives. 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.

Long-LivedAssets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted future cash flows to the recorded value of the asset. The asset is written down to its estimated fair value if an impairment is indicated.

IncomeTaxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax bases of assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

ConvertibleFinancial Instruments

The Company bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. These criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not remeasured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as that term is described under applicable U.S. GAAP.

| 10 |

| --- |

FairValue of Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Stock-BasedCompensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation which prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee and non-employee services are acquired. Share-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of stock options, are recognized as compensation expenses in the financial statements based on the stock awards’ fair values on the grant date. That expense is recognized over the period required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). Stock Options awarded as compensation per the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan are deemed to be unissued until vested. Stock Option compensation is recognized as an expense over the vesting period. Awards forfeited due to unfulfillment of obligations, such as termination of employment prior to the award being fully vested, for no cash or other consideration, are not recognized as an expense, and any previously recognized costs are reversed in the period of forfeiture.

CommonStock Purchase Warrants and Derivative Financial Instruments

Common stock purchase warrants and other derivative financial instruments are classified as equity if the contracts (1) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (2) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). Contracts which (1) 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), (2) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (3) contain reset provisions that do not qualify for the scope exception are classified as liabilities. The Company assesses the classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.

Item3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluationof Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. However, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under Exchange Act) as of the end of the period being reported by this Form 10-Q and have concluded that we have material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting as described below. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective or sufficient to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2023.

| 11 |

Management’sReport of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. An evaluation was performed of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The evaluation was based on the framework in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness in future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on our evaluation under the criteria set forth in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework, our management concluded that as of June 30, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of the identification of material weaknesses described as follows:

We<br> did not have controls designed to validate the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the determination of accounting<br> transactions. Accordingly, we have a material weakness because there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to<br> the interim or annual consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We<br> have limited written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls<br> over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which is applicable to us. Management evaluated<br> the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure<br> controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
We<br> do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and<br> nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent<br> possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets, and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate<br> individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls<br> and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
--- ---
We<br> have insufficient personnel with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.
We<br> do not have a functioning audit committee and only one outside director on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight<br> in establishing and monitoring required internal controls and procedures.

RemediationPlan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our Management is committed to improving its internal controls when we have adequate resources to do so, and we appointed a full-time chief financial officer in February 2023. We will appoint outside directors and establish an audit committee in 2023 or 2024. Due to the nature of these material weaknesses, misstatements that could be material to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected during our financial close and reporting process.

Our Company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management, and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

Changesin Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, there were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to affect our internal control over financial reporting.
