FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements made in this Form 10-Q that are not historical or current facts are forward-looking statements. These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are the following: the Company’s ability to obtain necessary capital, the Company’s ability to meet anticipated development timelines, the Company’s ability to protect its proprietary technology and knowhow, the Company’s ability to establish a global market, the Company’s ability to successfully consummate future acquisitions, and such other risk factors identified from time to time in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those filed with this Form 10-Q quarterly report. We disclaim any obligation to subsequently revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. (“Skkynet” or “the Company”) is a Nevada corporation formed on August 31, 2011 and headquartered in Toronto, Canada. Skkynet operates its business through its wholly owned subsidiaries Cogent Real-Time Systems, Inc. (“Cogent”), Skkynet Corp. (Canada) and Skkynet, Inc. (USA). Skkynet was formed primarily for the purpose of taking the existing business lines of Cogent and its current and future customers and integrating these businesses with Cloud based systems. We also intend to expand the areas of business activity to which the kinds of products and services we provide are applied.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s October 31, 2022 Annual Report on form 10-K filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the consolidated financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end October 31, 2022 as reported on Form 10-K, have been omitted.
Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current period. The reclassifications have no effect on the net loss or stockholders’ equity.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Skkynet’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward-looking statements as a result of the risks set forth in Skkynet’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.
OVERVIEW
Skkynet is a Nevada corporation headquartered in Mississauga, Canada. Skkynet operates three different lines of business through its wholly owned subsidiaries Cogent Real-Time Systems, Inc. (“Cogent”), Skkynet, Inc. (“Skkynet (USA)”), and Skkynet Corp. (“Skkynet (Canada)”). Skkynet was established to enhance Cogent’s existing business lines through the integration of Cloud-based systems, and to deliver a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) product targeting the Industrial Internet of Things (“IoT”) market, now referred to by the terms “Industry 4.0” and “Industrial Internet Consortium”.
The Company provides software and related systems and facilities to collect, process, and distribute real-time information over a network. This capability allows the customers to both locally and remotely manage, supervise, and control industrial processes and financial information systems. By using this software and, when requested by a client, our web based assets, our clients and their relevant customers are given the ability and the tools to observe and interact with these processes and services in real-time as they are underway and to give them the power to analyze, alter, stop, or otherwise influence these activities to conform to their plans.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, revenue was $625,464 and $1,117,583 compared to $540,093 and $1,017,272 for the same periods in 2022. Revenue increased for the six month period ended April 30, 2023 over the same period in 2022 by 9.9%. The increase in revenue for the six-month period is attributed to higher sales by Cogent. The Company is benefiting from its prior investment in sales and marketing and market recognition which has contributed to the increase in Cogent’s sales.
General and administrative expense was $742,977 and $1,368,941 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 compared to $593,731 and $1,171,021 for the same periods in 2022. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 over the same periods in 2022, resulted from increased expenditures primarily in salaries and wages and hired consultants.
For the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, the Company reported an operating loss of $117,513 and $251,358 compared to operating losses of $53,638 and $153,749 for the same periods in 2022. The operating loss during the three and six-month periods ended April 30, 2023, over the operating losses for same periods in 2022 is attributable to higher general and administrative costs and salaries and wages in the period ended April 30, 2023, as noted in the above paragraph compared to 2022.
Other income and expense for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, was other income of $3,859 and other expense of $9,502 compared to other expense of $3,684 and other income of $22,263 for the same periods in 2022. The amount of change in both periods was due to the effect of currency exchange.
Net loss after income taxes of $83,815 and $231,021 was reported for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, compared to a net loss after income taxes of $17,955 and $92,119 for the same periods in 2022. The higher net loss for the three and six month periods in 2023 can be attributed to higher general and administrative cost and salaries and wages in 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. During the three month period ended April 30, 2023 the Company received a tax refund for development of $29,839.

| Table of contents |
Net loss to common stockholders was $86,720 and $236,831 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023, compared to net loss of $20,860 and $97,929 for the same periods in 2022. The loss includes the expense of dividend for preferred stockholders of $5,810 being accrued for the six months period ended April 30, 2023 and 2022.
The Company reported comprehensive loss of $90,740 and $235,367 for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2023 compared to a comprehensive loss of $19,475 and $79,995 for the same periods in 2022. The comprehensive loss is an adjustment to net loss with foreign currency translation adjustments.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At April 30, 2023, Skkynet had current assets of $1,126,317 and current liabilities of $616,091, resulting in working capital of $510,226. Accumulated deficit, as of April 30, 2023, was $6,686,116 with total stockholders’ equity of $501,338.
Net cash provided in operating activities for the six month period ended April 30, 2023, was $43,806 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $207,953 for the same period in 2022.
Net cash used in financing activities for the six month period ending April 31, 2023 was $4,350 compared to $12,135 for the same period in 2022. Both periods amounts were due to the repayment of loans.
The cash provided by operating activities for the six-month period ended April 30, 2023 compared to the cash used in operating activities over the same period in 2022 was primarily due positive changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due related parties plus the increase in deferred revenue during the period.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, Skkynet is not required to provide information required under this Item.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
| 12 |
| Table of contents |
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2023 using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework- 2013. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We lack full time personnel in accounting and financial staff to sufficiently monitor and process financial transactions in an efficient and timely manner. Our history of losses has severely limited our budget to hire and train enough accounting and financial personnel needed to adequately provide this function. Consequently, we lacked sufficient technical expertise, reporting standards and written policies and procedures along with a lack of a formal review process which includes multiple layers of review. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control 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.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our management believes that the Unaudited Financial Statements included herein present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to Skkynet’s risk factors as previously disclosed in our most recent 10-K filing for the year ended October 31, 2022.
