For

the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Unaudited)

Note1 - Nature of the Business

American Battery Materials, Inc. (formerly BoxScore Brands, Inc.) (the “Company”) is a US based renewable energy company focused on the extraction, refinement and distribution of technical minerals in an environmentally responsible manner.

The Company formerly developed, marketed and distributed various self-serve electronic kiosks and mall/airport co-branded islands throughout North America. Due to the nationwide shutdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company spent a portion of 2020 restructuring and retiring certain corporate debt and obligations, while focusing on implementing a new operational direction.

Through the corporate reorganization and repositioning process, the Company found itself with the unique opportunity to expand its management team and acquire mining claims that historically reported high levels of Lithium and other tech minerals. The Company hired and affiliated itself with industry veterans that bring decades of experience, credibility and relationships.

On November 5, 2021, the Company acquired the rights to 102 Federal Mining Claims located in the Lisbon Valley of Utah for $100,000. The acquisition was driven by historical mineral data from seven (7) existing wells with brine aquifer access. The independent third-party Technical Report indicated that further investment and development in the claims were warranted.

The Company has been moving forward with its strategy of employing advanced brine extractive technology methodologies and has been in talks with numerous extraction providers. Selective mineral extraction is clearly the most cost-effective and ESG friendly approach currently available. Technologies are being utilized that can extract the desired minerals and metals from the brine and then re-inject the brines back down into the aquafer. The prospective partners have been provided the analytical results from the technical reports, but will soon provide current results, analytical, Geotech modeling, aquifer modeling, recharge, flows, and depth.

The Company will also look to expand its holdings in the Lisbon Valley area with the acquisition of additional mineral claims and joint venture opportunities.

Note2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are condensed and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair and non-misleading presentation of the financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2022.

Notes

to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For

the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Unaudited)

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Battery Materials, Inc. (formerly BoxScore Brands, Inc.) and the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiaries U-Vend America, Inc., U-Vend Canada, Inc. and U-Vend USA LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; estimating, therefore, requires the exercise of judgment. Thus, accounting estimates change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, or as additional information is obtained.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Equipment has estimated useful lives between three and seven years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If it is determined that an asset group is not recoverable, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value.

Mineral Rights and Properties

The Company capitalizes acquisition costs until the Company determines the economic viability of the property. Since the Company does not have proven and probable reserves as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulation S-K 1300, exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred. The Company expenses mineral lease costs and repair and maintenance costs as incurred. The Company reviews the carrying value of our properties for impairment, including mineral rights, upon the occurrence of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company currently owns the rights to 102 Federal Mining Claims located in the Lisbon Valley of Utah that it purchased on November 5, 2021 for $100,000. No impairment or capitalizable costs related to the mineral claims were noted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022.

Earnings Per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share reflect the actual weighted average of shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed including the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares had been issued. In a loss period, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were approximately 92 million and 96 million shares potentially issuable under convertible debt agreements, options, warrants and preferred stock that could dilute basic earnings per share if converted that were excluded from the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. Certain warrants issued by the Company contain terms that result in the warrants being classified as derivative liabilities for accounting purposes. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair market value and then is revalued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

●	Level<br> 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date<br> for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets as<br> those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and<br> volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
●	Level<br> 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly<br> or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes<br> those derivative instruments that the Company values using observable market data. Substantially<br> all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the derivative<br> instruments, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which<br> transactions are executed in the marketplace.
---	---
●	Level<br> 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant<br> to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e. supported<br> by little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments include derivative warrant instruments.<br> The Company does not have sufficient corroborating evidence to support classifying these<br> assets and liabilities as Level 1 or Level 2.
---	---

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which requires all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors, and non-employees to be measured at grant date fair value of the equity instrument issued, and recognized as expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally equivalent to the vesting period. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The measurement date for the non-forfeitable awards to nonemployees that vest immediately is the date the award is issued.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of control for promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the revenue recognition principles, an entity is required to identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied (i.e., either over time or at a point in time). ASC 606 further requires that companies disclose sufficient information to enable readers of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

The Company recognized $0 revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, *Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives andHedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’sOwn Equity,*which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU is effective for public business entities, excluding smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and for all other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for all entities no earlier than for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the effects this ASU will have on its financial statements.

The Company has examined all other recent accounting pronouncements and determined that they will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note3 - Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company had net loss of $388,646 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, has accumulated losses totaling $18,243,483, and has a working capital deficit of $1,600,058 as of March 31, 2023. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Until the Company can generate significant cash from operations, its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional financing. The Company hopes to raise additional financing, potentially through the sale of debt or equity instruments, or a combination, to fund its operations for the next 12 months and allow the Company to continue the development of its business plans and satisfy its obligations on a timely basis. Should additional financing not be available, the Company will have to negotiate with its lenders to extend the repayment dates of its indebtedness. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully restructure its debt obligations in the event it fails to obtain additional financing. These conditions have raised substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements, which has not been alleviated.

In February and March 2023, the Company entered into Note Purchase Agreements with four investors not affiliated with the Company (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Purchasers purchased from the Company convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000, of which $400,000 was recorded as a receivable as of March 31, 2023, and received subsequently in April 2023. The outstanding principal and accrued interest balances at March 31, 2023 were $1,500,000 and $1,635, respectively.

The Convertible Notes provide for a maturity of 12-months; 7.5% interest per annum; and, no right to prepay during the first 6-months after the date of issuance (the “Issuance Date”). The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) as follows:

(a) The Convertible Notes automatically convert into Conversion Shares upon the shares of the Company’s common stock being listed on a higher exchange due to the (i) pricing and funding of an S-1 registration statement; or, (ii) the closing of a transaction resulting in the uplist (either, a “Triggering Transaction”). The conversion price for the Conversion Shares in an automatic conversion shall be equal to:

(1) 75% of the price under the Triggering Transaction if within 120-days of the Issuance Date;

(3) 65% of the price under the Triggering Transaction if more than 150-days of the Issuance Date.

(b) The Purchasers have the right to convert into Conversion Shares, in whole or in part, at any time after 180-days following the Issuance Date. The conversion price for the Conversion Shares in a voluntary conversion shall be equal to 65% of the volume weighted average price for the Company’s common stock during the 20-consecutive trading days preceding the conversion.

---	---
●	The<br> inability to compete in our market, especially against established industry competitors with<br> greater market presence and   financial resources.
---	---

The following discussion and analysis provides information that our management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes that appear elsewhere in this report.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis is a supplement to our financial statements, including notes, referenced elsewhere in this Annual Report, and is provided to enhance your understanding of our operations and financial condition. Due to rounding, some parts of this discussion may not sum or calculate precisely to the totals and percentages provided in the tables.

Overview

American Battery Materials, Inc. (formerly BoxScore Brands, Inc.) (the “Company”) is a US based renewable energy company focused on the extraction, refinement and distribution of technical minerals in an environmentally responsible manner. The Company formerly developed, marketed and distributed various self-serve electronic kiosks and mall/airport co-branded islands throughout North America. Due to the nationwide shutdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company spent a portion of 2020 restructuring and retiring certain corporate debt and obligations, and focusing on implementing a new operational direction.

Through the corporate reorganization and repositioning process, the Company found itself with the unique opportunity to expand its management team and acquire mining claims that historically reported high levels of Lithium and other tech minerals. The Company hired and affiliated itself with industry veterans that bring decades of experience, credibility and relationships.

13

On November 5, 2021, the Company acquired the rights to 102 Federal Mining Claims located in the Lisbon Valley of Utah for $100,000. The acquisition was driven by historical mineral data from seven (7) existing wells with brine aquifer access. We have not yet commenced any mining operations, and we are an Exploration Stage Company, as defined in Regulation S-K, Subpart 1300 (“Regulation S-K 1300”). An independent third-party technical report indicated that further investment and development in the claims was warranted, although no determination has been made whether we have any reserves of minerals. Similarly, no determined has been made whether mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted. We have no reserves as defined by Regulation S-K 1300.

On October 20, 2022 the Company, following receipt of written approval from stockholders acting without a meeting and holding at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting, filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to (i) change the name of the Company to “AMERICAN BATTERY MATERIALS, INC.” (the “Name Change”); and, (ii) increase the total number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from 600,000,000 to 4,500,000,000 (the “Authorized Share Increase”). The Name Change was processed by FINRA and was effective on May 1, 2023, at which time the Company’s trading symbol was also changed to BLTH. The Authorized Share Increase was effective as of October 20, 2022.

On October 20, 2022, in addition to the Name Change and the Authorized Share Increase, the holder of 63.86% of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote took action by written consent and without a meeting, pursuant to Delaware General Corporate Law Section 228, and adopted and approved the following actions:

1.	Future<br> amendment of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to implement a decrease in<br> the authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock from 4,500,000,000 to a number<br> of not less than 10,000,000 and not more than 2,000,000,000 (the “Authorized Share<br> Reduction”), at any time prior to October 20, 2023 (the “Anniversary Date”),<br> with the Board having the discretion to determine whether or not the Authorized Share Reduction<br> is to be effected, and if effected, the exact number of the Authorized Share Reduction within<br> the above range.
2.	Future<br> amendment of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to implement a reverse stock<br> split of the Company’s Common Stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-10 and not more<br> than 1-for-1,000, (the “Reverse Split”), at any time prior to the Anniversary<br> Date, with the Board having the discretion to determine whether or not the Reverse Split<br> is to be effected, and if effected, the exact ratio for the Reverse Split within the above<br> range.

Resultsof Operations

Threemonths ended March 31, 2023 Compared to Three months ended March 31, 2022

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no revenue.

OperatingExpenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $446,476, an increase of $320,404 or 254%, compared to $126,072 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in operating expenses was mainly due to an increase in professional fees. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company activated consulting teams to pursue additional land acquisitions, and to begin the State and Federal permitting process for project development work.

In addition, the Company initiated construction strategies based on reports from RESPEC, the Company’s engineering partner, for geological modeling and drill entry design and related planning.

Changein Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a gain on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $211,345. The underlying convertible notes were converted during the fourth quarter of 2022, resulting in no derivative liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

14

Gainon settlement of liabilities

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded a gain on settlement of liabilities of $67,984, consisting of $7,008 in principal and $60,976 in interest forgiven by creditors. No such transactions were noted during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

InterestExpense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $10,154, as compared to $189,047 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to the aforementioned conversion of convertible notes payable during the fourth quarter of 2022.

NetLoss

As a result of the foregoing, the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $388,646 as compared to the net loss of $103,774 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company had net loss of $388,646 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, has accumulated losses totaling $18,243,483, and has a working capital deficit of $1,600,058 as of March 31, 2023. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The Company will need to raise additional financing in order to fund its operations for the next 12 months, and to allow the Company to continue the development of its business plans and satisfy its obligations on a timely basis. Should additional financing not be available, the Company will have to negotiate with its lenders to extend the repayment dates of its indebtedness. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully restructure its debt obligations in the event it fails to obtain additional financing.

CashFlows from Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company used $317,613 of cash in operating activities as a result of the Company’s net loss of $388,646, increased by gain on debt settlement of $67,984 and offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $139,017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company used $123,150 of cash in operating activities as a result of the Company’s net loss of $103,774, increased by gain on change in fair market value of derivative liability of $211,345, and offset by share-based compensation of $525 and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $191,444.

CashFlows from Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no investing activities.

Cashflows from Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, financing activities provided $1,314,000, resulting from $1,125,000 in proceeds from convertible notes, and $189,000 in proceeds from the exercise of warrants.

15

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, financing activities provided $225,000, resulting from $300,000 in proceeds from convertible notes, offset by $75,000 in repayments of convertible notes.

Off-BalanceSheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, an effect on its financial condition, financial statements, revenues or expenses.

Inflation

Although the Company’s operations are influenced by general economic conditions, it does not believe that inflation had a material effect on its results of operations during the last two years as it is generally able to pass the increase in material and labor costs to its customers or absorb them as it improves the efficiency of its operations.

CriticalAccounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; estimating therefore, requires the exercise of judgment. Thus, accounting estimates change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired or as additional information is obtained. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

●	Level<br> 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date<br> for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets as<br> those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and<br> volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis
●	Level<br> 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly<br> or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes<br> those derivative instruments that the Company values using observable market data. Substantially<br> all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the derivative<br> instruments, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which<br> transactions are executed in the marketplace.
---	---
●	Level<br> 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant<br> to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e. supported<br> by little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments include derivative warrant instruments.<br> The Company does not have sufficient corroborating evidence to support classifying these<br> assets and liabilities as Level 1 or Level 2.
---	---

16

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. Certain warrants issued by the Company contain terms that result in the warrants being classified as derivative liabilities for accounting purposes. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair market value and then is revalued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluationof Disclosure Controls and Procedures

David Graber, who serves as our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and Sebastian Lux, who serves as our Co-Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Principal Financial Officer (collectively referred to herein as “Senior Management”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Senior Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on its evaluation, Senior Management concluded as of March 31, 2023 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, described below in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, Senior Management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Management’sReport on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Senior Management, is 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 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The evaluation was based on the framework in 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 to 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 its evaluation under the criteria set forth in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework, Senior Management concluded that, as of March 31, 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<br> used in the determination of accounting transactions. Accordingly, we believe we have a material<br> weakness because there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the interim<br> or annual consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely<br> basis.
●	We<br> do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written<br> documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section<br> 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us. Management evaluated the impact<br> of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our<br> assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency<br> that resulted represented a material weakness.
---	---

17

●	We<br> do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic<br> internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not<br> always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible,<br> the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should<br> be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have<br> segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has<br> concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
●	We<br> have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas<br> of finance and accounting.
---	---
●	We<br> do not have a functioning audit committee, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment<br> and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

Senior Management of the Company is committed to improving its internal controls and will (i) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities; (ii) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel; (iii) seek to add a full-time Chief Financial Officer to replace Mr. Lux when the Company has adequate financial resources; and, (iv) is currently considering appointing audit committee members in the future.

Senior Management has discussed the material weaknesses noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of these material weaknesses, it is reasonably possible that misstatements which 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.

This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.

Changesin Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, Senior Management is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate the deficiencies described above.
