Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Graphene & Solar Technologies Limited and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements can be found in the Company’s Annual Report in form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant estimates include but are not limited to the estimated useful lives of equipment for purposes of depreciation and the valuation of common shares issued for services, equipment, and the liquidation of liabilities.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand; demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments. As of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, the Company had $50,047 and $57,365 in cash, respectively, and no cash equivalents.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based CompensationASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee and non-employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values on the grant date. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 9,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to members of the Board of Directors, employees, and consultants.

 

During the nine months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued an aggregate of 9,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to members of the Board of Directors, employees, and consultants.

 

Total stock-based compensation expense was $5,084,761 for the nine-months ended June 30, 2026 and $390,819 for the year ended September 30, 2025.

 

Foreign Currency Translations

Foreign Currency Translations – The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiary is primarily the respective local currency. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. Dollars at the year-end exchange rate, and revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Translation gains and losses are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity. All other foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other (income) expense, net.

 

Other comprehensive income was ($128,116) and $40,851 for the quarters ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

Other comprehensive income was $15,546 for the nine months ended June 30, 2026, and other comprehensive income of $48,597 for the nine months ended June 30, 2025.

 

Accumulated other comprehensive income was $255,537 and $239,991, as of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.

 

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings per share have been calculated based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share were not calculated as such potential shares would be anti-dilutive.

 

Reclassifications

Reclassifications - Certain amounts previously presented for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net loss, working capital or equity previously reported.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

 

Effective as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 2023-07, “Segment Reporting” (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available and are evaluated regularly by management, namely the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the CODM.

 

The CODM evaluates the Company’s financial results and allocates resources on a consolidated basis. Based on this evaluation, the Company has determined that it operates as a single operating and reportable segment.

 

Although the Company has identified geographic regions for purposes of internal review and future revenue analysis, the Company and its subsidiaries have not generated any revenues to date. Accordingly, no geographic revenue information has been presented for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

 

The Company’s assets are located in multiple jurisdictions and are managed on a consolidated basis. Because the Company operates as a single operating unit and has not generated revenues to date, management believes that presenting additional geographic asset information would not be meaningful. The Company will reassess its segment and geographic reporting disclosures as operations expand and revenues are generated.

 

In accordance with ASC 280, the Company provides the following segment information:
