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.

NOTE 3- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Sakura Software, a corporation owned by our CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Andrew S. Thomas, and Benford Consultancy, a corporation owned by our COO and a member of our Board of Directors, Paul Benford, own, respectively, 72.34% and 27.66% of the issued and outstanding shares of Real Innovations International LLC, (“Real Innovations”) a corporation organized under the laws of Nevis, West Indies. In March 2012, Cogent, our operating subsidiary, assigned all of its intellectual property including the pending patent applications for its real-time data transmission and display technology (the “IP”) to Real Innovations under an assignment of intellectual property agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”). In return for the assignment Real Innovations required a one-time payment of $30,000 to Cogent. Cogent elected to forgo the payment allowing Real Innovations to offset future expenses against the payment. There is no ongoing royalty payment or other form of compensation from Real Innovations to Cogent under the Assignment Agreement.
Real Innovations, in turn, entered into a master intellectual property license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Cogent for all of the same IP. Under the License Agreement Real Innovations granted a royalty-free license in perpetuity to Cogent for the use and exploitation of the IP in return for which Cogent agreed to: (i) pay all operating expenses of Real Innovations incurred in connection with the continued prosecution of pending patent applications and others that may be prepared; (ii) prosecute all claims for infringement of the IP; (iii) defend and indemnify Real Innovations from and against all claims of infringement of the IP asserted by third parties against Real Innovations, Cogent or our Company; (iv) purchase liability insurance in favor of Real Innovations for this purpose. Under the termination provision of the licenses agreement, there is no unilateral right of termination. Termination may occur by mutual consent of the parities, the Company ceasing doing business, by breach by the Company or by the Company failing to maintain the license and the support to prosecute and protect the license under applicable laws.
Under the License Agreement, Messrs. Andrew S. Thomas and Paul Benford will benefit indirectly from their indirect ownership of all of the shares of Real Innovations to the extent of any such payments or other undertakings by Cogent on behalf of Real Innovations, but the exact amount of these benefits cannot be determined at this time. No payments have been made as of July 31, 2022.
During the nine months ended July 31, 2022, five officers and directors exercised 1,567,700 options for 1,567,700 shares of common stock with an exercise value of $1,568.
As of July 31, 2022, the amount due related parties was $134,990 compared to $221,924 as of October 31, 2021.
NOTE 4 – OPTIONS
The Company, under its 2012 Stock Option Plan, issues options to various officers, directors, and consultants. The options vest in equal annual installments over a five year period with the first 20% vested when the options are granted. All of the options are exercisable at a purchase price based on the last trading price of the Company’s common stock.

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 customers (to the extent relevant) 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 nine month periods ended July 31, 2022, revenue was $530,075 and $1,547,347 compared to $497,375 and $1,383,414 for the same periods in 2021. Revenue increased for the nine month period ended July 31, 2022 over the same period in 2021 by 11.8%. The increase in revenue for the nine-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 $503,419 and $1,673,138 for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022 compared to $482,482 and $1,345,590 for the same periods in 2021. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three and the nine month periods ended July 31, 2022 over the same periods in 2021, resulted from increased expenditures primarily in legal and accounting, hired consulting services, and advertising and promotion.
For the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022, the Company reported an operating income of $26,015 and operating loss of $127,734 compared to operating income of $14,202 and $35,846 for the same periods in 2021. The operating loss during the nine-month periods ended July 31, 2022 compared to the operating income for same periods in 2021 is attributable to higher general and administrative costs in the period ended July 31, 2022, as noted in the above paragraph compared to 2021.
Other income and expense for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022, was other expense of $7,649 and other income of $14,614 compared to other expense of $55,587 and $110,028 for the same periods in 2021. The amount of change in the period ended July 31, 2022 was due to other income of $6.398 and gain on currency of $8,216 compared to the accrual of dividends on the preferred shares of $69,720 and loss on currency of $65,707, offset by other income of $25,399 for the same period in 2021.

Net income after income taxes of $18,366 and net loss of $73,753 was reported for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022, compared to a net loss after income taxes of $15,490 and $48,387 for the same periods in 2021. The net income for the three month period in 2022 can be attributed higher revenue in 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The loss for the nine month period ended July 31, 2022 of $73,753 was higher than the net loss of $48,387 for the same period in 2021.This was due to other income of $14,614 in 2022 compared to other expense of $110,028 in 2021, an improvement of $124,642 in 2022 which was offset by loss from operations of $127,734 in 2022 compared to operating income of $35,846 in 2021.
Net income to common stockholders was $15,461 and net loss of $82,468 for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022, compared to net loss of $18,395 and $57,002 for the same periods in 2021. The expense include dividends for preferred stockholders of $8,715 being accrued for the nine month period ended both in July 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company reported comprehensive income of $17,280 and loss of $62,715 for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2022 compared to a comprehensive loss of $24,695 and $34,348 for the same periods in 2021. The comprehensive loss is an adjustment to net loss with foreign currency translation adjustments.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At July 31, 2022, Skkynet had current assets of $935,896 and current liabilities of $414,401 resulting in working capital of $521,495. Accumulated deficit, as of July 31, 2022, was $6,552,891.

The decrease in cash used in operating activities for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2022 over the same period in 2021 was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable and deferred revenue offset by a decrease of accounts payable and due related parties.
Net cash used in financing activities was $18,571 consisting of cash provided by exercise of options of $1,568 offset by repayment of loan of $20,139.

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.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2022 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.

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.
