PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Company Overview

Energy and Water Development Corp. (the "Company" or "EAWD") was originally incorporated as a Delaware corporation named Wealthhound.com, Inc. in 2000 and was converted to a Florida corporation under the name Eagle International Holdings Group Inc. on December 14, 2007.

On March 10, 2008, the Company changed its name to Eurosport Active World Corporation and on March 17, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Inko Sport America, LLC ("ISA"), a privately-held Florida limited liability company wherein all of the certified owners of ISA exchanged their ownership interests in ISA for shares of the Company. In connection with the closing of the AcquisitionAgreement, the Company adopted ISA's business plan and the Company's registered directors were elected to their positions. This transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein ISA was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. ISA was administratively dissolved in September 2010.

In September 2019, the Company changed its name to Energy and Water Development Corp. to more accurately reflect the Company's purpose and business sector. The Company has registered its logo "EAWD" with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the European Union Intellectual Property Office and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to secure its corporate identity.

In order to effectively cater to its expanding operations within one of the EU's most environmentally advanced nations, the Company has strategically established a branch for business operations in Germany, along with two wholly-owned German subsidiaries: Energy and Water Development Deutschland GmbH ("EAWD Deutschland") and EAWD Logistik GmbH ("EAWD Logistik"). Moreover, recognizing the importance of regional market demands, the Company has also extended its presence to Mexico through a wholly-owned subsidiary called EAWD Mexico SAPI de CV, enhancing its capacity to address the needs of this area efficiently. This strategic positioning not only reflects the Company's commitment to environmental progress but also ensures an optimized response to evolving market requirements.

Our Vision

The global atmospheric water generator market size was accounted at USD 2.9 billion in 2022 and it is expected to reach approximately USD 5.5 billion by 2032. The industry growth is expected to be driven by freshwater scarcity and increasing technological investments, followed by favorable government regulations. As for energy, according to the International Agency of Energy (IAE), global electricity demand is projected to grow between 62 and 185 percent by 2050 compared with 2021 levels. (Source: Atmospheric Water Generator Market published by Grand View Research).

The main market dynamics to consider are the growing numbers of AWGs across various end-use verticals and the high energy consumption, production cost, and high carbon footprint of such technology. EAWD's innovative off-the-grid systems, birthed from intensive AWG technology research, offer distinct advantages over both centralized and traditional off-the-grid solutions. Designed for optimal efficiency, these systems prioritize environmental sustainability by utilizing renewable energy sources, primarily solar. Not just alternatives, they seamlessly complement existing centralized infrastructures, ensuring a consistent supply of water and power. Their modular design promotes easy scalability, catering to growing demands without massive overhauls. Furthermore, the decentralized nature of EAWD's systems offers enhanced reliability, reducing the risks of large-scale outages that plague centralized setups. This fusion of resilience, sustainability, and efficiency positions EAWD's solutions as a comprehensive response to modern energy and water needs. The urgency of these considerations is heightened by climate change. Data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reveals that there is a more than 50% chance that global temperature rise will reach or surpass 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) between 2021 and 2040, and in a high-emissions scenario, the world may hit this threshold several years earlier by 2037.

The mission of EAWD is to provide sustainable water generation systems based on high efficiency, renewable sources and to provide off-the-grid self-sufficient energy supply solutions. Through a combination of the best design and configuration of state-of-the-art technology-assisted solutions, EAWD has created a completely self-sufficient off-the-grid energy generation and water production system, which can be simultaneously used to meet potable water requirements and the electrical energy needs of the industrial sector.

Our Products

The technological solutions offered by our Company are the following:

EAWD Off-the-Grid AWG Systems

Today, atmospheric water generators (AWGs) are standard equipment in many places; however, operating AWGs requires high amounts of energy that is often not available in the places where they are needed most, making the price for the generated water very high. Our innovative EAWD off-the-grid AWG Systems are designed to have an internal power supply and ability to generate power. Our EAWD off-the-grid AWG Systems produce sufficient quantities of potable water even in very dry and hot climate conditions and can be scaled to almost any size, community, and/or population. Presently, AWGs are largely used in Asian and African countries. The majority of manufacturers of AWGs, which rely on dehumidifying, are located in China. Almost every U.S. based AWG brand is also supplied by manufacturers in China.

By contrast, EAWD uses a proven German technology for condensate water from the air based on A/C technology. We believe that this method allows higher, more efficient, sustainable performance and a larger quantity of water generation because of its internal power supply and because it does not require high humidity to function. EAWD has licensed the rights to use this German AWG technology for ninety-nine years; however, thanks to our continued research and development efforts, the Company has designed a new, innovative and more efficient configuration that allows the substantial amount of energy required to operate the equipment to be supplied by the equipment itself. Our EAWD off-the-grid AWG Systems line is different in size from the standard AWG line. Our EAWD off-the-grid AWG Systems are energy self-sufficient and can condense large amounts of water out of the atmosphere and we believe they could be a solution in countries around the world that deal with issues of water scarcity.

Our EAWD off-the-grid AWG System with an internal power supply, works by first "inhaling" large volumes of air, then cooling the air down to the dew point, and finally collecting, filtering, and mineralizing the resulting condensed water. Through this process, pure drinking water is created that meets the quality standards of the World Health Organization (WHO). In regions with high temperatures and high humidity levels, a single system can generate more than 300,000 liters of water per day. Our EAWD off-the-grid AWG Systems line starts at 2,640 gallons/day and can expand the water supply to one acre-feet/day, which we believe, in effect, is essentially the ability to produce an unlimited supply of water. As a certified vendor of the United Nations (UN) Global Marketplace, EAWD is introducing the EAWD off-the-grid AWG and Power Systems to the UN with the hopes of initially supplying the equipment to large cluster of agencies established in key locations for humanitarian response as well as refugee camps around the world in need of fresh water.

EAWD Off-the-Grid Water Purification Systems

EAWD also seeks to respond to the growing need for drinking water by proposing a water purification solution utilizing solar, photovoltaic energy and, when applicable, a mini-windmill or other alternate source of renewable energy. The design of the system is ready to be built and delivered on demand.

Generally, drinking water is produced by passing sea water, lake water, river water, or stagnant water through several stages of purification and treatment until it is rendered drinkable in accordance with WHO standards. In the case of sea or stagnant water, we recommend a treatment via reverse osmosis membranes, which permits the retention of dissolved solids and results in obtaining water of drinking quality. If the water being treated emanates from lakes or rivers, we recommend treatment via an ultrafiltration membrane which functions by retaining suspended materials such as colloids, viruses and bacteria. The systems proposed by EAWD are containerized and contain all the equipment necessary to function autonomously, in part due to an automatic cleansing system that can be accessed remotely via satellite or the internet. Moreover, the machines use available renewable energy sources such as solar or wind to function.

EAWD Off-the-Grid EV Charging Stations

The global electric vehicle fluids market has grown from $1.33 billion in 2022 to $1.7 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.4%. The electric vehicle fluids market is expected to grow to $4.57 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 28.0%. (Source: Electric Vehicle Fluids Global Market Report 2023 Report from Research and Markets.)

There is also an increasing consensus among European truck manufacturers and industry stakeholders that battery electric trucks (BETs) will play a dominant role in the decarbonization of the road freight sector. Most truck makers including Daimler, DAF, MAN, Scania and Volvo are now focusing on bringing BETs to the mass market for all vehicle segments, including long-haul, starting from 2024. For this, a network of public high-power and overnight charging points needs to be rolled out across Europe no later than 2024.

Based on our patent-pending off-the-grid Power System, EAWD has developed an innovative design and configuration of off-the-grid charging stations for BETs and electric vehicles in Germany. In 2021, EAWD built its first off-the-grid charging station in Relligen, Germany to charge our fleet vehicles and to gather usage and operational data. Our product is the first off-the-grid solution available in Europe for charging the BETs and electric passenger vehicles that are currently on the roads of Europe. EAWD plans to establish up to 1,700 charging stations throughout Germany starting with 40 locations scheduled to be installed by the end of the fourth quarter of 2024.

EAWD Off-the-Grid Power Systems

Today, batteries for stationary storage have become a commodity, but in order to reduce the duration, complexity and cost of the installation, and to increase its capacity or relocate a system over time as well as to reduce its carbon footprint and environmental impact, we offer a complete Electrical Energy Storage System (EESS) and Energy Management System (EMS) for a wide range of customers and applications, including microgrids and EV fast charging stations. A highly capable energy management system which secures the efficient energy supply and storage of energy. Example: with elements such as software and Battery Management System (BMS) our systems can allow controlled and optimized battery cell management.

This product portfolio includes systems and complete services for solar power generation in the building envelope. A high-quality frameless glass solar panel with a super-matte surface, which secures a high-performance energy source.

In contrast to classic solar systems on the roof, EAWD combines the highest standards of aesthetics with high efficiency energy generation. With these solutions, EAWD supports its customers on their way to CO2 neutrality and the search for alternative renewable energies.

Current Projects

The Company envisions a dual-utility future for its systems, simultaneously offering both water and energy where needed. We plan to establish off-the-grid charging stations throughout Germany and, given the increasing drought issues there and in France, Spain, Italy, the United States, Mexico, and other parts of Latin America, EAWD foresees its systems providing vital water supplies to these regions.

Germany

The Company has secured a 7,200 sqm plot in Kassel, adjacent to the A7 Autobahn, which is Germany's primary north-south route located at the heart of the country. On June 1, 2023, EAWD commenced construction of Europe's premier large-scale, off-the-grid charging station for electric trucks and passenger vehicles in Germany.

Harnessing solar and wind power, each EAWD off-the-grid Charging System will be capable of consistently powering up to 120 DC charging stalls, depending on the size of the charging park. Specifically, the Kassel off-the-grid System is designed to simultaneously charge 50 electric trucks and up to 60 electric vehicles (EVs). This patented system is designed for future integration and expansion. EAWD's technology creates a "micro-grid" that operates independently from the public power grid, ensuring continuous EV charging regardless of public grid availability. Often referred to as a "mini-grid" or "island grid," it offers consistent power for both AC and DC chargers. In Kassel, the stalls will range in power from 300 KW to 480 KW, with some having dual charging capabilities, allowing two trucks to charge simultaneously. This system is equipped to cater to both the emerging 800 Volt vehicles and the more common 400 Volt charging systems, accommodating the diverse charging needs of today's electric vehicles and trucks.

In 2021, the Company also completed the development and installation of the first of forty planned solar powered EAWD off-the-grid EV Charging Stations for electric long-haul trucks in Relligen, Germany. Our charging stations are the first off-the-grid charging station available for these e-trucks in Europe and the Company plans to contract with companies that own these electric long-haul trucks to provide fleet charging as well as to install them in public places for per-use fees with the following business model:

1. E-Truck Overnight Parking: A per-truck parking fee of €6 for 12 hours €12 for 24 hours. Additionally, customers will be required to pay a €4 per truck reservation fee and applicable tax.
2. E-Truck Monthly Parking: A monthly flat rate of €1,000 for up to ten trucks per day. We will negotiate these monthly contracts with local companies to provide their drivers prearranged local parking.
3. Long-term Logistics: In the event a freight forwarder needs a long-term parking solution, the fee will be €140 per month per truck.
4. Hourly Public Charging: The general public will receive one hour of free parking with the purchase of at least €20 worth of charging. Regular rates apply after one hour.
5. Overnight Public Parking: Overnight public parking will be charged at the above-listed hourly public parking rates, plus charging fees.

In 2021, the Company installed an EAWD off-the-grid AWG System powered by solar energy at its office location in Relligen, Germany. This installation served as a demonstration of the system's capacity to produce significant amounts of water, with projections reaching up to two million gallons daily. In addition, the surplus energy harnessed from the sun has been effectively utilized to charge the Company's five electric vehicles. In October 2023, the Company moved to a larger office and warehouse space in Bargteheide, Germany, where it plans to re-install its demonstration system.

Mexico

In November 2020, our distributor in Mexico made a significant move by placing an initial order valued at USD $550,000 for a solar-powered EAWD off-the-grid AWG System. This system was manufactured in Germany and delivered in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement in 2021. Following the success of this transaction and evident satisfaction of the client, the Company is in active discussions with the same client for the acquisition of three additional units. For a comprehensive understanding and details of the purchase contract, one can refer to the copy of such contract filed as Exhibits 10.8 and 10.9 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

This successful implementation of our product and the trust demonstrated by our Mexican client has spurred interest by others in the region. Consequently, we are witnessing an uptick in proposal submissions for potential clients across Mexico in Mexico City, Monterrey, San Luis Potosi, Quintana Roo, and Merida.

On November 30, 2023, EAWD and several significant landowners of the Magdalena Contreras Municipality in Mexico City signed a joint Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") to formalize their commitment to join forces to initiate a groundbreaking project: the first off-the-grid AWG plant on the American continent. This MOU lays out the groundwork for the development of this pioneering facility. In its initial phase, the plant is expected to produce approximately 3.2 millions of liters of water annually by extracting moisture directly from the air.

South Africa

In 2019, the Company signed a sales contract for the sale of a solar powered EAWD off-the-grid AWG System to a South African customer for a purchase price of $2,800,000. The build out of the equipment began in the fourth quarter of 2019, however because of delays due to COVID-19 and the global supply chain, the expected delivery date is late 2024. The Company has not yet received any payments from this customer. The foregoing description of the purchase contract does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of such contract filed as Exhibit 10.7 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Worldwide Business Relationships

EAWD's strategic placement of commission-based independent agents and distributors in diverse regions like Germany, Mexico, the United States, India, Canada, Australia, Colombia, Nepal, Kenya, Morocco, and Thailand will create a robust framework for long-term business opportunities. Aside from the purchase order for an eAWG system placed by the Mexican distribution agent discussed elsewhere in this prospectus, these agents and distributors have not yet generated any sales of the Company's products.

In developed markets like Germany and the U.S., the strong focus on sustainability and advanced technology aligns perfectly with EAWD's green solutions. Emerging economies such as Mexico, Colombia, and India offer substantial opportunities due to their urbanization-driven water and energy challenges. In countries like Nepal, Kenya, and Morocco, EAWD can address acute water scarcity and energy issues, catering to specific local needs.

Our local agents provide invaluable insights into market trends, regulations, and customer behaviors, ensuring tailored and relevant product offerings. This deep connection to and understanding of local needs fosters community trust, a vital factor for sustained business growth. Continuous feedback from the field enables EAWD to refine its products, maintain competitiveness, and expand its portfolio, aligning with evolving market demands. Opportunities for collaboration with local entities further amplify EAWD's reach and impact.

EAWD's geographical diversification minimizes business risks while maximizing reach into key markets. By strategically aligning solutions to regional challenges and leveraging local expertise, EAWD is not just penetrating these markets but planting seeds for sustained growth and leadership in the global green tech industry. This multifaceted approach ensures that EAWD's technology remains at the forefront of the essential quest for sustainable water, energy, and energy management solutions across the globe.

Competition

Regarding the atmospheric water generation process, we compete by providing innovative systems assembled with state-of-the-art technologies and that contain self-sufficient power supplies, which make them more sustainable and profitable than the traditional solutions. We also set ourselves apart by providing services that are valued by our customers such as reliable sales relationships, product innovations, and responses to changing market/business needs.

The market witnesses the presence of a diversified array of large and small scale manufacturers resulting in a significant level of competition in the global market. The competition in the market, both in the residential and commercial sectors, is projected to grow in intensity and is characterized by the demand for advanced and reliable atmospheric water generator units. Rising demand for industrial-size AWGs, particularly in regions facing water shortages, is expected to create opportunities for new market players such as EAWD through 2027. Moreover, current research that is focused on increasing overall product efficiency in the industry is anticipated to open new avenues for market players over the coming years. According to an atmospheric water generator market size report (published by Grand View Research in 2020), some of the prominent players in the atmospheric water generator (AWG) market include: Akvo Atmospheric Water Systems Pvt. Ltd., Dew Point Manufacturing, Saisons Trade & Industry Private Limited, Water Maker India Pvt. Ltd., Planets Water, Water Technologies International, Inc. (WTII), SkyWater Air Water Machines, Drinkable Air, Hendrx Water, Atlantis Solar, GENAQ Technologies S.L., Air2Water LLC, EcoloBlue, Inc and Watergen. On some level, each of these companies faces the two main industry challenges: carbon footprint and high-power requirement.

As per the report, the global renewable energy industry was accounted for $881.7 billion in 2020, and is expected to reach $1,977.6 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.4% from 2021 to 2030. The most popular renewable energy sources currently are: Solar energy. Wind energy. Hydro energy. Tidal energy. Geothermal energy. Biomass energy. As for the sector of electromobility in a base-case scenario, EV-charging demand could reach 23 TWh per year in Germany by 2030 or up to 43 TWh in an accelerated-adoption scenario, an 8 percent increase over current energy demand. This accelerated scenario corresponds to 16 million EVs in Germany by 2030, an increase in line with studies commissioned by the European Union and spurred by its proposed ICE vehicle ban as well as improving engine-efficiency rates. The solar charging has a very small print in the industry and EAWD consider itself as pioneer of off-the-grid Charging stations in the eMobility industry, since as today no records could be found about the existence of full off-the-grid charging stations.

We compete by providing innovative systems assembled with state-of-the-art technologies and that contain self-sufficient power supplies, which make them more sustainable and profitable than the traditional solutions. We also set ourselves apart by providing services that are valued by our customers such as reliable sales relationships, product innovations, and responses to changing market/business needs.

JOBS Act and the Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We elected to take advantage of all of these exemptions.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an "emerging growth company" can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards, and delay compliance with new or revised accounting standards until those standards are applicable to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will be an emerging growth company until the last day of the first fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our first common equity offering, although we will lose that status earlier if our annual revenues exceed $1.0 billion, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt in any three-year period or if we become a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We will qualify as a "large accelerated filer" as of the first day of the first fiscal year after we have (i) more than $700,000,000 in outstanding common equity held by our non-affiliates as of the last day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; (ii) been a public company for at least 12 months; and (iii) filed at least one annual report with the SEC. The value of our outstanding common equity will be measured each year on the last day of our second fiscal quarter.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure required under this Item 1A.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

Not applicable.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.

For their new cybersecurity section in Form 10-Ks, companies should confirm compliance with the new line item requirements in Item 106 of Regulation S-K, as summarized below.

Risk Management and Strategy. Under new Items 106(b)(1), companies must:

Describe the registrant's processes, if any, for assessing, identifying and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats in sufficient detail for a reasonable investor to understand those processes. In providing such disclosure, a registrant should address, as applicable, the following non-exclusive list of disclosure items:

(i) Whether and how any such processes have been integrated into the registrant's overall risk management system or processes.

(ii) Whether the registrant engages assessors, consultants, auditors, or other third parties in connection with any such processes.

(iii) Whether the registrant has processes to oversee and" identify such risks from cybersecurity threats associated with its use of any third-party service provider.

The SEC's purpose in adopting new disclosure items in Item 106(b)(1) was to "allow investors to ascertain a registrant's cybersecurity practices, such as whether they have a risk assessment program in place, with sufficient detail for investors to understand the registrant's cybersecurity risk profile," while at the same time avoiding details that "could increase a company's vulnerability to cyberattack."15

Cybersecurity Threat Disclosure. Under new Item 106(b)(2), companies must:

Describe whether any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the registrant, including its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition and if so, how.

This new requirement in Item 601(b)(2) was proposed in 2022 by the SEC to "equip investors to better comprehend the level of cybersecurity risk the company faces" and "assess the company's preparedness regarding such risk," but also aligns with the SEC's 2018 guidance, which encourages companies to address the impact of any prior cybersecurity incidents in their risk factors. We expect many companies to provide a cross reference to existing risk factor disclosure on this point and to consider, as appropriate, any additional disclosure to address and clarify whether or not any cybersecurity incidents experienced to date have constituted a material cybersecurity incident. As the SEC noted, companies should likewise consider whether they need to revisit or refresh any previous disclosure made about cybersecurity incidents as they prepare this disclosure, including during the process of investigating a cybersecurity incident.17

Governance Board Disclosure. Under new Item 106(c)(1), companies must:

Describe the board of directors' oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats.

If applicable, identify any board committee or subcommittee responsible for the oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats and describe the processes by which the board or such committee is informed about such risks.

For this requirement in Item 601(c)(1), although the SEC opted not to adopt a proposal to require disclosure of the frequency of board and committee discussions, the SEC specifically noted in the adopting release that the disclosure may include discussion of frequency, including the board or board committee's reliance on "periodic (e.g., quarterly) presentations by the registrant's chief information security officer to inform its consideration of risks from cybersecurity threats."18 Notably, the SEC also removed its proposed requirement that companies disclose whether any directors have cybersecurity expertise, noting that "effective cybersecurity processes are designed and administered largely at the management level and that directors with broad-based skills in risk management and strategy often effectively oversee management's efforts without specific subject matter expertise as they do with other sophisticated technical matters."19

Governance Management Disclosure. Under new Item 106(c)(2), companies must:

Describe management's role in assessing and managing the registrant's material risks from cybersecurity threats. In providing such disclosure, a registrant should address, as applicable, the following non-exclusive list of disclosure items:

(i) Whether and which management positions or committees are responsible for assessing and managing such risks, and the relevant expertise of such persons or members in such detail as necessary to fully describe the nature of the expertise. Relevant expertise may include, for example, prior work experience in cybersecurity; any relevant degrees or certifications; any knowledge, skills or other background in cybersecurity.

(ii) The processes by which such persons or committees are informed about and monitor the prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.

(iii) Whether such persons or committees report information about such risks to the board of directors or a committee or subcommittee of the board of directors.

For this requirement in Item 106(c)(2), the SEC noted that this list is a "non-exclusive list" that companies should consider when describing management's role in cybersecurity oversight, and that this disclosure would "typically encompass identification of whether a registrant has a chief information security officer [(CISO)] or someone in a comparable position." The detailed information required about the CISO's background (including the CISO's prior work experience, knowledge, skills and degrees or certifications held) is notable in that it goes beyond current disclosure requirements regarding other members of company management.

We do not own any real property. We may procure additional space as we add employees and expand geographically. We believe that our current facilities are adequate to meet our needs for the immediate future and that, should it be needed, suitable additional space will be available to accommodate expansion of our operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

EAWD vs Nerve Smart Systems ApS ("Nerve") Case number BS-15264/2022- The Court of Roskilde, Denmark. On April 2022, the Company filed a claim against Nerve demanding the return of amounts paid by the Company for a Battery Energy Storage System that was never delivered by Nerve to the Company, and therefore Nerve did not meet the requirements and specifications of the contract with the Company. The Company is confident there will be a positive outcome.

Due to the nature of the Company's business, the Company may at times be subject to claims and legal actions. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred, and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date and the Company's estimates of the outcomes of these matters. Except as set forth above, as of December 31, 2023 we are not currently subject to any legal proceedings, nor to the knowledge of management are any legal proceedings threatened that are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.

Not applicable.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Market under the symbol "EAWD" There is currently a limited market for our common stock and the volume of our common stock traded on any day may vary significantly from one day to another. Trading in stock quoted on the OTC Market's OTCQB is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. The availability of buyers and sellers represented by this volatility could lead to a market price for our common stock that is unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Market's OTCQB is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities quoted on the OTC Market's OTCQB is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a stock exchange like NYSE or NASDAQ. There is no assurance that there will be a sufficient market in our stock, in which case it could be difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.

On April 25, 2024, the closing price of our common stock was $0.09 per share as reported on the OTC QB Market maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc.

The following table sets forth for the respective periods indicated the prices of our common stock in this market as reported and summarized by the OTC Markets. Such prices are based on inter-dealer bid and asked prices, without markup, markdown, commissions, or adjustments and may not represent actual transactions.

Fiscal Year 2023:
First Quarter $ 0.12 $ 0.03
Second Quarter $ 0.06 $ 0.03
Third Quarter $ 0.08 $ 0.02
Fourth Quarter $ 0.11 $ 0.03
Fiscal Year 2022:

Penny Stock

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

14

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, shareholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

Holders

As of December 31, 2023, we had 867 record holders of our common stock, holding 268,040,179 shares of common stock. The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of bank, brokers and other nominees.

Dividends

We have never declared nor paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and currently intend to retain all of our cash and any earnings for use in our business and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

ITEM 6. [RESERVED]

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS .

Introductory Statement

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and information relating to our business that reflect our current views and assumptions with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any update or revisions of any of the forward-looking statements to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or to conform these statements to actual results.

Addressing Challenges the Current War in Ukraine

The current war in Ukraine has caused significant changes in consumer behavior and purchasing patterns, supply chain routing, the dynamics of current market forces, and government oversight and intervention. Disruptive activities could include the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes, restrictions on the export or shipment of our products, significant cutback of ocean container delivery from Germany, business closures in impacted areas, and restrictions on our employees' and consultants' ability to travel and to meet with customers. The extent to which the war in Ukraine impacts our results will depend on future developments, which still uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the current conflict. The war in Ukraine could continue to result in social, economic and labor instability in the countries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate.

In light of these challenges, the Company is focusing its efforts on supporting key areas of our business that will help us to stabilize in the new environment and strategize for what comes next. Those key areas are: crisis management and response, workforce, operation and supply chain, finance and liquidity, tax, trade and regulatory, as well as strategy and brand.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements. Certain of these significant accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as defined below.

17

A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes: 1) we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and 2) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the financial statements as soon as they became known. Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and present a meaningful presentation of our financial condition and results of operations. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Risks and Uncertainties - The Company's business could be impacted by price pressure on its product manufacturing, acceptance of its products in the marketplace, new competitors, changes in federal and/or state legislation and other factors and new technology. If the Company is unsuccessful in securing adequate liquidity, its plans may be curtailed. Adverse changes in these areas could negatively impact the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp and 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. 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 periods presented have been reflected herein.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the useful life of property and equipment, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases ("ASC 842"). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity's ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable.

18

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of the valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management's view it is more likely than not (50%) that such deferred tax will not be utilized.

ASC 740 provides interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Corporation could incur income taxes, the Corporation would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. A liability for uncertain tax positions would then be recorded if the Corporation determined it is more likely than not that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if a payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimable.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Corporation does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist that would result in the Corporation having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Corporation's policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively, in the statement of operations. The Corporation's tax returns for the years ended 2013 through 2022 are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities. The Corporation's tax returns for the tax year ended 2023 have not been filed.

We record our provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss by estimating our taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We estimate our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences arising from differing treatment of items recognized for financial reporting versus tax return purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets, which are included in our balance sheets. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws, or loss or credit carry forwards are utilized. Valuation allowances are recorded when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We make these estimates and judgments about our future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with our future plans. As of December 31, 2023, we had recorded a full valuation allowance on our U.S. net deferred tax assets because we expect that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Should the actual amounts differ from our estimates, the amount of our valuation allowance could be materially impacted.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company recognized no revenue during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

19

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 - Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, customer/investor deposit have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

Stock-Based Payments

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2018-07 ("ASU 2018-07"), "Improvement to Nonemployee Share Based Payment Accounting", which expanded the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance was applied prospectively to all new awards granted after the date of adoption. In addition, the guidance was applied to all existing equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established under ASC 505-50 by the adoption date by remeasuring at fair value as of the adoption date and recording a cumulative effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit on January 1, 2019.

For the Company's equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established under ASC 505-50, the fair value on January 1, 2019, the adoption date, approximated the value assigned on December 31, 2018, therefore no cumulative adjustment to opening accumulated deficit was required.

Under the revised guidance, the accounting for awards issued to non-employees will be similar to the model for employee awards, except that ASU 2018-07:

allows the Company to elect on an award-by-award basis to use the contractual term as the expected term assumption in the option pricing model, and
the cost of the grant is recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the grantor had paid cash.

Employee and Non-Employee Share Based Compensation

The Company applies ASC 718-10, "Share - Based Payment," which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options under the Company's stock plans and equity awards issued to non-employees based on estimated fair values.

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The fair value of the award is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The Company recognizes share based award forfeitures as they occur.

20

The Company estimates the fair value of granted option equity awards using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of similar companies in the technology sector. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to employees and directors using the "simplified" method. Grants to non-employees are based on the contractual term. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements as discussed in Note 3 to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report.

Revenue

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 we generated no revenue.

Cost of equipment sold

No costs were recognized in fiscal years 2023 and 2022.

Gross profit

The Company had no gross profit for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

22

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense increased by $730,836 or 38% to $2,641,724 for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $1,910,888 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The following discussion provides further explanation of the change in each item.

The largest element of change was an increase in professional fees by $463,883 or 94% to $958,809 as compared to $494,926 for the year ended December 31, 2022 as a result of higher accounting fees, litigation fees, legal fees and SEC matters. Additionally, the increase in general and administrative expenses was due to an increase in other general and administrative expenses by $350,350 which includes large increases in insurance and rent for the current year due to the new office and warehouse spaces. Finally, an increase in officer's salaries and payroll taxes of $66,745 was incurred as new employee contracts were signed in 2023, increasing salaries and related taxes, offset by a decrease in Marketing fees of $185,574.

Other Expense

Other expense increased by $759,902 from a $31,692 net expense (2022) to a $791,594 net expense (2023) primarily as a result of a decrease in change in fair value of derivatives of $630,210, an increase in loss on settlement of liabilities of $200,358, and an increase in interest expense of $42,791 , offset by an increase in other income of $113,457.

Net Loss

Net loss increased by $1,490,738 to $3,433,318 for the year ended December 31, 2023, when compared to $1,942,580 for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to the reasons discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash of $76,627 and a working capital deficit of $1,071,780 at December 31, 2023. Our operating and capital requirements in connection with supporting our operations will continue to be significant. Since inception, our losses from operations and working capital requirements have been satisfied through the deferral of payment for services performed by our founders and related parties discussed more fully below.

We have sustained operating losses since we began our operations in 2012. At December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $27,771,291. The Company cannot predict how long it will continue to incur further losses or whether it will ever become profitable as this is dependent upon the reduction of certain expenses and success in obtaining project contracts, among other things. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

We have satisfied our cash and working capital requirements in the year ended December 31, 2023, through the sale of common stock.

Comparison of Cash Flows for the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022

For the Year Ended
December 31,
2023 2022
Net cash used in operating activities $ (2,337,741 ) $ (1,618,916 )
Net cash used in investing activities (39,949 ) (196,018 )
Net cash provided by financing activities 2,417,341 1,280,001

23

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

We used $2,337,741 of cash in our operating activities in 2023 compared to $1,618,916 used in 2022. Cash used of $2,337,741 includes a net loss of $3,433,318, offset by non-cash expenses of $1,009,478 principally related to amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs of $208,053, depreciation and amortization expense of $95,554, change in fair value of derivative liability of $395,556, foreign currency loss of $12,758, imputed interest on related party loans of $14,748 loss on settlement of $200,358, bad debt expense of $52,761, stock issued for services of $19,116, and non-cash lease expense of $43,492, offset by $10,639 of returned shares on settlement and $22,728 of loss on partial extinguishment of convertible debt. Cash from working capital items in the amount of $86,099 principally related to an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred taxes of $90,748 and an increase in due to officers of $97,901, offset by an increase in inventory of $5,660, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $64,268, and a decrease in operating lease liabilities, current and non-current of $43,942.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We used $39,949 and $196,018 of cash to purchase property and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We received $2,417,341 and $1,280,001 in cash from financing activities in 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash flow from financing activities of $2,417,341 is primarily due to increased financing in 2023 through $2,316,300 in proceeds from the sale of shares and subscriptions to purchase common shares and $153,000 in proceeds from convertible loans payable, offset by repayments of finance lease liabilities in the amount of $51,959.

Financial Position

Total Assets - At December 31, 2023, the Company had $1,424,800 total assets representing $76,627 in cash, $451,986 in inventory, $379,490 in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $229,363 in property and equipment, and $287,334 in operating lease right-of-use assets.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

We expect to generate more revenues which should, grow in time and lead to a positive cash flow. In the near future, we expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through sales contracts, lines of credit, convertible loans and/or further issuances of other securities in sufficient quantities that we will be able to meet our working capital requirement from these possible sources. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt will result in dilution to our current shareholders.

We seek to focus on three main aspects of the water and energy business: (1) generation, (2) supply, and (3) maintenance. We seek to assist private companies, government entities and NGO's to build profitable and sustainable supplies/generation capabilities of water and energy as required, by selling them the required technology or technical service to enhance their productivity/operability. With its outsourced technical arm and its commission-based global network of vendors, the Company expects to create sustainable added value to each project it takes on while generating revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies; as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

Through our BlueTech Alliance for Water Generation, established in December 2020, we have state-of-the-art technology partners, technology transfer agreements, and technology representation agreements in place relating to aspects of renewable energy and water supply. These unique key relationships offer important selling features and capabilities that differentiated EAWD from its competitors.

The Company plans to generate revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies, as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

Accrued salaries represent amounts accrued in accordance with the employment agreements for Mr. Hofmeier, the Company's President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and Ms. Velazquez, the Company's Chief Operating Officer and Vice-Chairman. Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez are also significant stockholders.

On January 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with each of Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez whereby (i) Mr. Hofmeier agreed to receive an aggregate 1,022,095 shares of Common Stock and 2,002,488 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in full and complete satisfaction of an aggregate $1,175,000 in unpaid compensation owed to him pursuant to his January 1, 2012 employment agreement with the Company and (ii) Ms. Velazquez agreed to receive an aggregate 1,022,095 shares of Common Stock and 1,778,488 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in full and complete satisfaction of an aggregate $1,063,000 in unpaid compensation owed to her pursuant to her January 1, 2012 employment agreement with the Company.

25

On December 18, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with each of Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez whereby Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez each agreed to receive 300,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock with fair market value of $150,000 (collectively, the "Compensation Shares").

Customer deposit

EAWC-TV functions as a distributor of EAWD product. In 2019, EAWC-TV, having secured EAWD's first customer, has placed a $550,000 order for a solar powered atmospheric water generator ("AWG") for one of its customers. EAWC-TV and the Company on December 13, 2019 agreed to accept a $303,742 reduction in the balance owed by EAWD to EAWC-TV as a deposit with EAWD related to this order. The deposit was satisfied through delivery of the equipment when performance has occurred. The equipment was built in Germany.

The Company and EAWC-TV agreed as it had done in 2019, to clear the outstanding balances in the D/T/F EAWC-TV and the outstanding balance it carried in its accounts payable account for administrative services, which it did on December 26, 2020 which resulted in an additional down payment of $193,497. On September 1, 2023 EAWD and EAWC-TV entered into a settlement agreement whereby the unpaid balance on the equipment of $52,761 was written off in accordance with the Company's intent to terminate the distribution agreement. As such, the Company's outstanding accounts receivable balance on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $0 and $52,761 respectively.

Going Concern Qualification

The next operational step to accomplish is to achieve sufficient sales volume to yield positive net income. Due to the timing of the project build out, the Company has not currently recorded any revenue and consequently has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $27,771,291 at December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Corporation incurred net losses of $3,433,318. The Company also had a working capital deficit of $1,071,780 at December 31, 2023.

The Company's ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

At the filling date of this report, management is working to conclude the sales in Germany and in other regions of the world relating to the previously approved proposals, which would bring a growing revenue. Managements plans to expand the sales operations by greater market penetration of the agricultural, industrial and community development markets with its innovative water and energy generation solution. Management also plans to raise additional funds during 2024 through the issuance of equity securities, from deposits related to customer purchase orders, and, if necessary, loans from management and third-party lenders. Management also plans to reduce expenses by centralizing the assembly, logistics and administrative operations of the Company into a larger, self-sufficient, off-grid location that will be able to house the storage of supplies and inventory, as well as provide space for assembly and administrative operations. The Company is also planning to acquire its own electric vehicles to reduce its supply transportation costs.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements as discussed in Note 3 to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

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 provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the forms and rules of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO, in a manner to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-K, our management, including the CEO and CFO (Principal Accounting Officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022. As described below, management has identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which is an integral component of our disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of those material weaknesses, our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The term "internal control over financial reporting" is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;
· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and
· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrant's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. In addition, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.

As of December 31, 2023, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013) (COSO) and identified material weaknesses. Due to financial constraints, we have not fully implemented a remediation plan. A "material weakness" is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be presented or detected by our employees.

27

The specific material weaknesses that management identified in our internal controls as of December 31, 2023 are as follows:

· Inadequate segregation of duties,
· Limited level of multiple reviews among those tasked with preparing the financial statements,
· Lack of a formal internal control environment.

We consider an incomplete governing board and transactions running through our executives as a failure of our internal control system. To remediate we will require the time and funds to secure additional qualified personnel and the funds to proper support services to facilitate their functions.

Plans for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

Our commitment to fortifying our internal controls is unwavering. As part of our ongoing endeavor to elevate these controls, we are actively deploying a robust remediation strategy to systematically address previously identified material weaknesses. Throughout the fiscal year 2024, we will diligently apply our financial resources to ensure the successful execution of this plan.

In response to the need for additional expertise in our accounting department, we have welcomed a new part-time Chief Financial Officer to our team and augmented our staff with specialized accounting consultants. These steps are pivotal in achieving a balanced allocation of duties. Concurrently, we are in the process of codifying our policies and procedures, which will significantly enhance the cohesion between our financial operations and other non-accounting divisions. We are also collaborating with external experts to ensure that our remediation efforts are both efficient and comprehensive.

We acknowledge that our journey towards a fully optimized internal control environment may require further actions beyond those currently anticipated. It is possible that the measures we are implementing might not fully remediate the identified issues, or guarantee the complete effectiveness of our internal controls, or preclude the possibility of future material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Our goal is to rectify any shortcomings in our internal controls expediently. However, should we encounter delays, our capability to accurately and promptly document, process, and disclose financial data in compliance with SEC regulations could be compromised. Such a scenario may negatively influence the market perception and liquidity of our common stock, undermine investor confidence, and expose us to potential regulatory scrutiny and sanctions. This could, in turn, have a material and detrimental impact on our business operations and financial health.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as otherwise stated above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Company is a non-accelerated filer and is not subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Accordingly, this Annual Report does not contain an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, since the rules for Smaller Reporting Companies provide for this exemption.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adoptedor terminateda "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 9C. DISCLOSURE REGARDING FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS THAT PREVENT INSPECTIONS

None.

Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors and executive officers as of December 31, 2023 are listed below. The number of directors is determined by our board of directors. All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the board or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Officers are elected by the board of directors and their terms of office are, except to the extent governed by employment contract, at the discretion of the board of directors.

From 2012 to August 2022, Ms. Velazquez acted as Chief Operations Officer and Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors of EAWD. She is currently the Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or officers, during the past ten years has:

· been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
· had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which the person was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;
· been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, the person's involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or been associated with persons engaged in any such activity;
· been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;
· been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

Except as set forth in our discussions in this Report, none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Term of Office

Directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and hold office until removed by the Board of Directors.

Board Committees and Corporate Governance

Our Board currently has no separate committees, and the Board acts as the audit committee and the compensation committee. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board because we do not currently have any independent directors and our Board believes that the establishment of committees of our Board would not provide any benefits to our Company and could be considered more form than substance. We do not have yet an audit committee financial expert serving on the Board.

Shareholder Communications

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding communications with the Board, shareholders may communicate with the Board by writing to us at 7901 4th Street N STE #4174, St Petersburg, Florida, 33702 Attention: Corporate Secretary or email to [email protected].

Shareholders who would like their submission directed to a member of the Board may so specify, and the communication will be forwarded, as appropriate.

Oversight of Risk Management

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including economic risks, financial risks, legal and regulatory risks and others, such as the impact of competition. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks that we face, while our Board has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our Board is responsible for satisfying itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. Our Board assesses major risks facing our Company and options for their mitigation in order to promote our stockholders' interests in the long-term health of our Company and our overall success and financial strength. A fundamental part of risk management is not only understanding the risks a company faces and what steps management is taking to manage those risks, but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for us. The involvement of our full Board in the risk oversight process allows our Board to assess management's appetite for risk and also determine what constitutes an appropriate level of risk for our Company. Our Board regularly includes agenda items at its meetings relating to its risk oversight role and meets with various members of management on a range of topics, including corporate governance and regulatory obligations, operations and significant transactions, risk management, insurance, pending and threatened litigation and significant commercial disputes.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of ethical conduct that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and senior financial management. This code of ethical conduct is embodied within our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all persons associated with our Company, including our directors, officers and employees (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller). In order to satisfy our disclosure requirements under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K, we will disclose amendments to, or waivers of, certain provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics relating to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief accounting officer, controller or persons performing similar functions on our website promptly following the adoption of any such amendment or waiver.

Customer deposit

EAWC-TV functions as a distributor of EAWD product. In 2019, EAWC-TV, having secured EAWD's first customer, has placed a $550,000 order for a solar powered EAWD Off-Grid AWG System for one of its customers. EAWC-TV and the Company on December 13, 2019 agreed to accept a $303,742 reduction in the balance owed by EAWD to EAWC-TV as a deposit with EAWD related to this order. The deposit was satisfied through delivery of the equipment. The equipment was built in Germany.

The Company and EAWC-TV agreed as it had done in 2019, to clear the outstanding balances in the D/T/F EAWC-TV and the outstanding balance it carried in its accounts payable account for administrative services, which it did on December 26, 2020 which resulted in an additional down payment of $193,497. Ralph Hofmeier owns 5% of the issued and outstanding stock of EAWC-TV and, other than the right to vote on issues presented to stockholders, he has no control over the management or operations of the company. On September 1, 2023 EAWD and EAWC-TV entered into a settlement agreement whereby the unpaid balance on the equipment of $52,761 was written off in accordance with the Company's intent to terminate the distribution agreement. As such, the Company's outstanding accounts receivable balance on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $0 and $52,761, respectively.

Related Person Transaction Policy

Our Board considers and approves or disapproves any related person transaction. The Company's written policies and procedures on related party transactions cover any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which: (i) the Company (or any subsidiary) is a participant; (ii) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest; and (iii) the aggregate amount involved (including any interest payable with respect to indebtedness) will or may be expected to exceed $120,000, except that there is no $120,000 threshold for members of the audit committee (if any). A related party is any: (i) person who is or was (since the beginning of the two fiscal years preceding the last fiscal year, even if they do not presently serve in that role) an executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director; (ii) greater than five percent (5%) beneficial owner of the Company's common stock; or (iii) immediate family member of any of the foregoing. An immediate family member includes a person's spouse, parents, stepparents, children, stepchildren, siblings, mothers- and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the same household as such person.

In determining whether to approve or ratify a related party transaction, the Board, or disinterested directors, as applicable, will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate: (i) whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; (ii) the nature and extent of the related party's interest in the transaction; (iii) the material terms of the transactions; (iv) the importance of the transaction both to the Company and to the related party; (v) in the case of a transaction involving an executive officer or director, whether the transaction would interfere with the performance of such person's duties to the Company; and (vi) in the case of a transaction involving a non-employee director or a nominee for election as a non-employee director (or their immediate family member), whether the transaction would disqualify the director or nominee from being deemed an "independent" director, and whether the transaction would disqualify the individual from serving on the audit committee or the compensation committee (if any) or other committees of the Board under applicable exchange and other regulatory requirements.

The Board only approves those related party transactions that are on terms comparable to, or more beneficial to us than, those that could be obtained in arm's length dealings with an unrelated third party.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financials do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ TAAD LLP

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2021.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Incorporation and Nature of Operations

Energy and Water Development Corp. (the "Company" or "EAWD") was originally incorporated as a Delaware corporation named Wealthhound.com, Inc. in 2000 and was converted to a Florida corporation under the name Eagle International Holdings Group Inc. on December 14, 2007.

On March 10, 2008, the Company changed its name to Eurosport Active World Corporation and on March 17, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Inko Sport America, LLC ("ISA"), a privately-held Florida limited liability company wherein all of the certified owners of ISA exchanged their ownership interests in ISA for shares of the Company. In connection with the closing of the AcquisitionAgreement, the Company adopted ISA's business plan and the Company's registered directors were elected to their positions. This transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein ISA was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. ISA was administratively dissolved in September 2010.

In September 2019, the Company changed its name to Energy and Water Development Corp. to more accurately reflect the Company's purpose and business sector. The Company has registered its logo "EAWD" with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the European Union Intellectual Property Office and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to secure its corporate identity.

In order to effectively cater to its expanding operations within one of the EU's most environmentally advanced nations, the Company has strategically established a branch for business operations in Germany, along with two wholly-owned German subsidiaries: Energy and Water Development Deutschland GmbH ("EAWD Deutschland") and EAWD Logistik GmbH ("EAWD Logistik"). Moreover, recognizing the importance of regional market demands, the Company has also extended its presence to Mexico through a wholly-owned subsidiary called EAWD Mexico SAPI de CV, enhancing its capacity to address the needs of this area efficiently. This strategic positioning not only reflects the Company's commitment to environmental progress but also ensures an optimized response to evolving market requirements.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EAWD. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary and 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. 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 periods presented have been reflected herein.

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 the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements of Energy and Water Development Corp. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, have been omitted.

Foreign currency translation

The United States dollar ("USD") is the Company's reporting currency. The Company has a subsidiary located in Germany. The net sales generated, and the related expenses directly incurred from the operations, if any, are denominated in local currency, Euro ("Euro"). The functional currency of the subsidiary is generally the same as the local currency.

Assets and liabilities measured in Euros are translated into USD at the prevailing exchange rates in effect as of the financial statement date and the related gains and losses, net of applicable deferred income taxes, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in its balance sheets. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. During the year ended December 31, 2023 the Company used a spot rate of 1.10 and an average rate of 1.08 when converting EURO to USD.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases ("ASC 842"). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity's ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. The Company does not have operating or financing leases.

Cash

The Company considers short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has $76,627and $40,886cash at December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. A reserve is established if necessary to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets include purchase deposits, miscellaneous prepaid expenses, value added tax receivable, and a security deposit.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset's estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company's property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company's Property and Equipment are as follows:

Useful Life (in years)
Office equipment 5
Furniture and fixtures 7
Automobile 5
Machinery and equipment 5

Deferred Financing Costs

The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 - Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

The application of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10-35, our derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $376,941and $184,025, respectively and measured on Level 3 inputs.

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of the valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management's view it is more likely than not (50%) that such deferred tax will not be utilized.

ASC 740 provides interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Corporation could incur income taxes, the Corporation would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. A liability for uncertain tax positions would then be recorded if the Corporation determined it is more likely than not that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if a payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimable.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Corporation does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist that would result in the Corporation having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Corporation's policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively, in the statement of operations. The Corporation's tax returns for the years ended 2012 through 2022 have been filed and are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities. The Corporation's tax returns for the tax year ended 2023 have not been filed.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any revenue.

Loss Per Common Share

The Corporation accounts for earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10, "Earnings Per Share", which establishes the requirements for presenting earnings per share ("EPS"). FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10 requires the presentation of "basic" and "diluted" EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS amounts are calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the exercise of all stock options, warrants and convertible securities having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the periods, using the treasury stock method. When a loss from operations exists, potential common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would result in an anti-dilutive effect on per share amounts.

As discussed more fully in Note 10, convertible note holders have the option of converting their loans into common shares subject to the terms and features offered by the specific convertible notes. Some note holders were also granted purchase options to purchase additional shares subject to the features of each purchase option. If the convertible note holders of unexercised convertible notes exercised their conversion feature and the additional purchase options, they would represent 0and 8,317,828in additional common shares at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The potential shares from both the conversion feature and the rights to purchase additional shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive.

Related Party Transactions

A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. A related party is generally defined as:

(i) any person that holds 5% or more of the Company's securities including such person's immediate families,
(ii) the Company's management,
(iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or
(iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company.

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Corporation's future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments" and ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief" which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, "Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)," which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered small reporting companies ("SRC") as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC, implementation is not needed until January 1, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Going Concern

The Company has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $27,771,291at December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Corporation incurred net losses of $3,433,318. The Company had a working capital deficit of $1,071,780at December 31, 2023.

The Company's ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

Management expects sales operations to continue to expand. If necessary, the Company will need to raise additional funds during 2024. Management of the Company intends to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities or debt, credit lines or advances from suppliers. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company's authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion options and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.

Based on the various convertible notes described above, the fair value of applicable derivative liabilities on notes and change in fair value of derivative liability are as follows as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Total
Balance as of December 31, 2021 $ 354,160
Change Due to Issuances 175,026
Change due to exercise / redemptions (110,507 )
Change in fair value (234,654 )

The fair value accounting standards define fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are rated on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:

· Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
· Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
· Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $395,556and a gain of $234,654, respectively, from the change in fair value of derivative liability.
