Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Presentation of Financial Statements
Description of the Company
374Water Inc., f/k/a PowerVerde, Inc. (the “Company”) was a Delaware corporation formed in March 2007. The Company was formed to develop, commercialize, and market a series of unique electric generating power systems designed to produce electrical power with zero emissions or waste byproducts, based on a patented pressure-driven expander motor and related organic rankine cycle technology.
On April 16, 2021, 374Water Inc. (f/k/a PowerVerde, Inc.) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with 374Water Inc., a privately held company based in Durham, North Carolina, (“Private 374Water”) and 374Water Acquisition Corp., a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerVerde (“Sub”). The parties entered into the Agreement pursuant to their Binding Letter of Intent dated September 20, 2020.
Pursuant to the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), on April 16, 2021, Sub merged into Private 374Water, with Private 374Water as the surviving corporation. In connection with the Merger, all Private 374Water shares were canceled and the Company issued to the former Private 374Water shareholders a total of
Nature of Business
With the Merger, the Company’s current mission is to support a clean and healthy environment to sustain life. The Company plans to use what it believes to be cutting-edge science to recover resources from the waste our society generates and keep drinking water clean. The Company’s customers will include businesses and local governments that will make the sustainable development goals a reality. On February 1, 2022, the Company sold its first AirSCWO system to Orange County Sanitation District of Fountain Valley, California. Revenues to date have been from sale of the Company’s first AirSCWO system and from testing, consulting, and advisory services procedures for our customers, which have been performed in collaboration with Duke University.

The Company held no marketable securities as of December 31, 2021.
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs - Fair value estimates are based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:
| · | Investment Securities Available-for-Sale. Investment securities available-for-sale (“AFS”) is recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange, Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include mortgage backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities in illiquid markets. |
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivables consist of balances due from service revenues. The Company monitors accounts receivable and provides allowances for doubtful accounts when considered necessary. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $
Equipment
Equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and an estimated useful life of three years. Expenses for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company’s depreciation expense in the period is $
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are subject to amortization, and any impairment is determined in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Intangible assets are stated at historical cost and amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company uses a straight-line method of amortization, unless a method that better reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up can be reliably determined.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of its long-lived assets, or related group of assets where applicable, in measuring whether the assets to be held and used will be realizable. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future undiscounted expected net cash flows to be generated by the asset. As of June 30, 2022, and 2021, there were no events or changes in circumstances requiring an impairment analysis.
Revenue Recognition and Concentration
The Company follows the revenue standards of Accounting Standards Codification Topic #606. The core principle of topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of 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. Revenue is recognized in accordance with that core principle by applying the following five steps: 1) identify the contracts with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. Deferred revenue primarily consists of billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition from the completion of the equipment build for each customer as the inputs are measured against the cost to build the product.
The Company’s performance obligations will be satisfied overtime as the specialized equipment is built for the customer. Based on the Company’s contracts, the Company will have a single performance obligation (build and install of the product). The Company will primarily receive fixed consideration for sales of products.
The majority of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were generated from the sale of the first AirSCWO system. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any revenues. The revenue as of June 30, 2021 was not related to the sale of the AirSCWO unit.

Stock-based Compensation
The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718 – “Stock Compensation” which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (stock options and common stock purchase warrants). The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of peer companies and other factors estimated over the expected term of the stock options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This topic also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. There were no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.
Income Tax Policy
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740 - Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.
Research and Development Costs
The Company’s research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Such expenditures amounted to $
Loss Per Share
Loss per share is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Certain common stock equivalents were not included in the loss per share calculation as their effect would be anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2022, there were the following potentially dilutive securities that were excluded from diluted net loss per share because their effect would be antidilutive: options for
Financial Instruments
The Company carries cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, at historical costs. The respective estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities approximate carrying values / useful lives of equipment and intangible assets due to their current nature.

| Table of Contents |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the fair value of equity-based compensation, useful lives of intangible assets, and valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
All other newly issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements have been deemed to be not applicable or immaterial to the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
Readers are cautioned that the statements in this Report that are not descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of our management, as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to us as of the date of this Report. When used in this Report, the words “plan,” “will,” “may,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Although we believe these statements are reasonable, actual actions, operations and results could differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors included in our 2021 Annual Report, or other factors. We must caution, however, that this list of factors may not be exhaustive and that these or other factors, many of which are outside of our control, could have a material adverse effect on us and our ability to achieve our objectives. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
Critical Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of financial statements.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This topic also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of June 30, 2022.
We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the condensed consolidated financial statements as general and administrative expense.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 were generated from the sale of a AirSCWO system, consulting and advisory services, which was recognized when the Company performed the service pursuant to its agreements with its clients which was the point in time when the Company completed its performance obligations under the agreements.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815- 40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Based on the provisions of ASC 815- 40, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). As of June 30, 2022, there were 1,250,000 outstanding warrants.
Stock-based compensation.
We account for stock-based compensation based on ASC Topic 718-Stock Compensation which requires expensing of stock options and other share-based payments based on the fair value of each stock option awarded. The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This model requires management to estimate the expected volatility, expected dividends, and expected term as inputs to the valuation model.
Overview
On April 16, 2021, we closed the Merger with the former 374Water Inc. (“374 Water”) (the “374Water Merger”). Pursuant to the parties’ merger agreement, our acquisition subsidiary merged into 374Water, with 374Water as the surviving corporation. In connection with the 374Water Merger, all 374Water shares were canceled and 374Water Inc. f/k/a PowerVerde, Inc., issued to the former 374Water shareholders a total of 62,410,452 shares of our common stock.

| Table of Contents |
Immediately following the Merger, 374Water changed its name to 374Water Systems Inc. and PowerVerde changed its name to 374Water Inc.
Since the closing of the 374Water Merger, our business has been focused on development and commercialization of 374Water’s supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) systems. Our business is subject to significant risks, including the risks inherent in our research and development efforts, uncertainties associated with obtaining and enforcing patents and intense competition.
Results of Operations
Since inception, we have focused on the development, testing and commercialization of our clean energy electric power generation systems. Since the closing of the 374Water Merger, our business has been focused on development and commercialization of 374Water’s supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) systems.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022, as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
We generated $1,030,528 and $14,600 in revenue during the periods ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The increase in revenue during 2022 was primarily as a result of the sale of our first AirSCWO system whereas in the past our revenues were derived from treatability studies, consulting and advisory services. Our general and administrative expenses were $379,661 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $53,308 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of increased insurance costs, marketing and business development expenses, dues and subscriptions, and stock-based compensation expenses. Our professional fees decreased to $141,104 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $152,437 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of decreased legal fees. Our research and development expenses were $422,695 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $124,675 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of the increase in engineering expenses following the 374Water Merger.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022, as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30,2021
We generated $1,303,759 and $14,600 in revenue during the periods ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The increase in revenue during 2022 was primarily as a result of the sale of our first AirSCWO system whereas in the past our revenues were derived from treatability studies, consulting and advisory services. Our general and administrative expenses were $641,067 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $63,785 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of increased insurance costs, marketing and business development expenses, dues and subscriptions, and stock-based compensation expenses. Our professional fees increased to $291,760 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $160,638 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of increased legal fees and accounting fees relating to our status as a public company. Our research and development expenses were $608,348 during the period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $153,860 in the same period of 2021, primarily because of the increase in engineering expenses following the 374Water Merger.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In April 2021, in connection with the Merger, we raised approximately $6.6 million from the sale of Series D Preferred Stock and converted all of its convertible debt notes and accrued interest to shares of common stock. On December 17, 2021, the Company raised approximately $5 million from the sales of Common Stock.
As of June 30, 2022, we had working capital of $9,426,666 compared to working capital of $11,263,270 at December 31, 2021.
We believe that these funds will satisfy our working capital needs for the next twelve months.

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Our management’s evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting was based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was effective. The Company’s management determined that the previously identified material weakness (as described below) had been remediated as of June 30, 2022.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses which we identified in our internal control over financial reporting:
● | A lack of entity level controls due to ineffective board of directors and no audit committee. |
Effective June 13, 2022, the Company appointed Buddie Joe (BJ) Penn, Yizhaq (Itzik) Polad, James M. Vanderhider and Deanna Rene to the Board of Directors. Additionally and in connection with their appointment to the Board, Mr. Penn was appointed to the Company’s recently established Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (Chairperson), Mr. Polad was appointed to the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee (Chairperson) and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Mr. Vanderhider was appointed to the Audit Committee (Chairperson). As of June 30, 2022, the Company now has the knowledge and expertise deemed to satisfy the entity level controls for a board of directors and associated audit committee.
No Attestation Report
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except for controls implemented to address the deficiencies described above, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first six months of 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
