Note 3 – Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

In accordance with ASU No. 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (subtopic 205-40), the Company’s management evaluates whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. At March 31, 2026, the Company had working capital of $1,521,955, an accumulated deficit of $54,508,221 and a cash balance of $447,453. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $4,571,623 and used $2,508,341 of net cash in operations for the period. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Presently, the Company will need additional debt or equity financing or a combination of both to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations for at least the next twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were issued and beyond. We may consume available resources more rapidly than currently anticipated, resulting in the need for additional funding. We expect to incur continuing losses and negative cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future until we are able to manufacture our AirSCWO units on a commercial scale.

Since inception, we have financed our operations principally through the sale of debt and equity securities and operating cash flows. On December 23, 2025, the Company entered into an ATM issuance sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC (“Lake Street”) as sales agent, pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50 million in an at-the-market equity offering program (“ATM”). The Sales Agreement replaced the Company’s prior ATM agreement with Lake Street from June 2025.  During the year ended December 31, 2025, we raised approximately $8,909,000 of net proceeds using our ATM.  The Company is evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations and has not yet raised any capital with the ATM in 2026.

As of the date of our 2025 Form 10-K, the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates, or the public float, was approximately $39,144,000, which was calculated based on 11,184,116 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock held by non-affiliates at a price of $3.50 per share, the closing price of our common stock on March 25, 2026, as reported on Nasdaq. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, or the “baby shelf” rules, in no event will we sell securities registered on our Form S-3 registration statement, including under our ATM, with a value of more than one-third of the aggregate market value of shares of our common stock held by non-affiliates in any 12-month period, so long as the aggregate market value of shares of our common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $75 million. After giving effect to the approximate $13,000,000 offering limit imposed by General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 and deducting the shares sold within the preceding 12 months, approximately $3,700,000 shares of common stock remain available at this time for sale under our Form S-3, including through our ATM. 

Any additional debt or equity financing that the Company obtains may substantially dilute the ownership held by our existing stockholders. The economic dilution to our shareholders will be significant if our stock price does not materially increase, or if the effective price of any sale is below the price paid by a particular investor. The Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed or obtain additional financing under acceptable terms, if at all.

We may decide to raise additional capital through a variety of sources in the short-term and in the long-term, including but not limited to:

If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, there is a risk that the Company could be required to discontinue or significantly reduce the scope of its operations. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
