Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as its plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Its actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
Overview of our Business
Cavitation Technologies, Inc. ("CTi"), a Nevada corporation, was originally incorporated under the name Bio Energy, Inc. We design and engineer environmentally friendly technology-based systems that are designed to serve large, growing, global markets such as vegetable oil refining, renewable fuels, water treatment, algae oil extraction, biodiesel production, water-oil emulsions and crude oil yield enhancement. Our systems are designed to process industrial liquids at a lower cost and higher yield than conventional technology. We are a process and product development firm that has developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology.
CTi has developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology that can be used for processing of industrial fluids. CTi's patented Nano Reactor® is the critical components of the CTi Nano Neutralization® System which is commercially proven to reduce operating costs and increase yields in processing oils and fats. CTi has two issued patents relating to our Nano Reactor® systems and has filed several national and international patents to employ its proprietary technology in applications including, vegetable oil refining, biodiesel production, waste water treatment, algae oil extraction, and alcoholic beverage enhancement.
We were engaged in manufacturing our Nano-Reactors, which are designed to help refine vegetable oils, biodiesel transesterification and treatment of produced and frack water.
In prior years we have developed a number of new applications utilizing the core principal of our technology. Our low pressure non-reactors (LPN) can be utilized in multiple industries that process large volumes of fluids and we anticipate commercial sales in our fiscal 2026. Further, we have miniaturized our non-reactors to be utilized in various consumer oriented products, such as, processing and enhancing spirits and wines, drinking water with infusion of vitamins, minerals and cannabidiol (CBD) oil.
We had agreements to license our technology globally through our strategic partners, Desmet Belgium Group (Desmet) and Enviro Watertek, LLC (EW) and Alchemy Beverages, Inc (ABI).
In October 2024, we entered into a Patent Assignment and License Back Agreement with Desmet to assign certain patents, intellectual property rights and trademarks related to vegetable oil refining to Desmet, as consideration for the patent assignments, Desmet paid the Company $880,000 in cash. This transaction provided capital for continuous operations and business development of our company.
Key points of the Agreement included:
| · | Reserved License: we retained a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license to practice and use the Assigned Patents in the fields of water and wastewater processing, recovery, recycling, and purification (including oilfield wastewater), as well as the manufacture, distillation, brewing, enhancement, sale, and marketing of alcoholic beverages (the "Licensed Fields"). | |
| · | Grant-Back License: we received a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license to practice and use the Assigned Patents and associated technical information, consistent with the scope of the Reserved License. | |
| · | Trademark Usage: we retained exclusive rights to use the "Nano Reactor®" mark for our businesses, systems, and products related to the Licensed Fields. |
Under both the Reserved License and the Grant-Back License, the Company will have a worldwide, exclusive, transferable, and royalty-free license and right to design, build, use, export, improve, sell, and market Nano Reactor® devices, as well as Nano Reactor® systems and products that incorporate or utilize Nano Reactor® devices, limited to uses and applications within one or more of the Licensed Fields.
As a result of this agreement, the Company expects that Desmet will start to manufacture the Nano reactors by itself and sale of Nano reactors to Desmet by the Company will significantly be reduced in future periods. We will continue to own and operate a large portfolio of patents and intellectual property rights in applications not related to vegetable oil refining. The following are Management's plans going forward to generate revenues and sustain the operations of the Company and its current status:
| 1. | Water Treatment and Remediation in the Permian Basin | |
| 2. | Water Remediation and Disinfection in Agriculture | |
| 3. | Business Venture with Alchemy Beverages, Inc. | |
| 4. | New Technologies: Hydro-Plasma |
1. Water Treatment and Remediation in the Permian Basin
From 2020 to 2022, our joint venture with Enviro Watertek, LLC restarted water treatment operations in the Permian Basin. Although our technology demonstrated commercial viability (approximately 3 million barrels treated), our partner was unable to expand and attract new customers due to significant shifts in the oil & gas industry. It has taken several years to rearrange and adapt our technology to fit new customers' operations.
Currently, we have installed our system at a major water remediation company in Texas, where it has been in place for over six months, with more testing required. We continue to pursue additional customers, primarily in the Permian Basin.
What differentiates us in the industry:
| · | No chemical usage in water remediation, significantly reducing operational costs. | |
| · | Integration into existing processes within 24 hours, without disrupting ongoing operations. | |
| · | Compact systems with minimal energy consumption. | |
| · | Post-treatment water can be either reused or safely disposed of. |
The Company anticipates that sales will be generated in the first half of fiscal 2026.
2. Water Remediation and Disinfection in Agriculture
In 2024, we installed our first system at Hacienda Farms (B&F Greenhouse Services, Inc.) in Canada. The system is currently undergoing trials to increase oxygen levels in the water, eliminate algae, and control bacterial growth, all without the use of harsh chemicals. This innovative technology is designed to improve water quality and promote healthier crop growth.
Hacienda Farms, relies heavily on water from Lake Erie, which poses significant water remediation challenges due to issues like algae and bacterial contamination. Additionally, Hacienda Farms has been dealing with high sodium levels in the water, which affect calcium absorption in plants, and fungal issues that harm root health, ultimately reducing crop yields. These water quality challenges necessitate advanced remediation solutions to ensure the sustainability and productivity of their greenhouse operations. Our technology addresses these problems by controlling microorganisms, accelerating vegetative and root growth, and increasing overall plant biomass. This not only improves crop production but also supports sustainable farming practices.
The overall market for water treatment in Canada is valued at approximately $2.51 billion, with continuous expansion due to the demand for sustainable solutions in agriculture and industrial applications.
The outcome of the trials mentioned above, which we expect to be completed within the first calendar quarter of 2026, will determine the commercial viability of our product and the timeline for any potential revenue generation.
3. Business Venture with Alchemy Beverages, Inc.
In June 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to license its patented alcoholic beverage technology to Alchemy Beverages, Inc. ("ABI"). Over the past several years, we have worked closely with ABI to develop the smart home kitchen appliance Barmuze and alcoholic beverages. Significant work has been done on Barmuze branding, including launching a new website and creating animations throughout the year to showcase how the appliance works. ABI is actively pursuing the commercial production of Barmuze, licensing the technology to third parties, and considering the opportunity to develop its own alcohol brands, leveraging our cutting-edge technology to transform any alcohol into a smooth, top-shelf experience.
ABI is in the final stages of completing its financial audit, which is estimated to be completed before the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, engaging focus groups for Barmuze acceptance, refining marketing and distribution strategies, and securing additional capital for production. The Company also plans on obtaining additional financing in early fiscal 2026.
The earliest sales and revenue for Barmuze are anticipated in the second half of 2026. Also, ABI is working on creating its own line of alcoholic beverages and licensing of the technology to other brands. For more information, www.alchemybeveragesinc.com and www.barmuze.com.
4. New Technologies: Hydro-Plasma
Along with improving our existing technologies, we have developed Hydroplasma, an innovative process combining cavitation and cold plasma technology to enhance our water treatment efficiency, which:
| · | Breaks down both organic and inorganic compounds. | |
| · | Is highly scalable - from 15 to 40 GPM. | |
| · | Eliminates microorganisms and diseases. | |
| · | Has multiple industrial applications. | |
| · | The technology is patent pending. |
This cutting-edge technology creates reactive agents, such as hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide, that break down pollutants, bacteria, and viruses in water more effectively than traditional methods. It's an environmentally friendly and scalable solution, with applications in water treatment, agriculture, sulfur removal from bunker fuel, and more.
The global cold plasma market is projected to grow from $1.5 billion in 2021 to $3.1 billion by 2027, fueled by increasing demand for sustainable water solutions. Our technology has the potential to revolutionize water treatment on a global scale. To accelerate this development, we have established partnerships with New Mexico State University, the University of Guadalajara, and the Brackish Groundwater National Desalination Research Facility (BGNDRF), NM, to collaborate on water remediation programs.
In order to develop these markets we may need additional funding, and may attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such financing or obtain sufficient amounts necessary to meet our business needs, or that we will be able to meet our future contractual obligations.
Testing of the technology is currently underway. Upon completion of multiple trials, if successful, sales and revenue are anticipated in the first half of fiscal 2026.
Inflation
Global inflation remains a factor in fiscals 2026 and 2025, with interest rates in the US remaining at higher levels, although there have been some rate decreases, the current uncertainty in the global markets around the implementation of trade tariffs by the US government has resulted in a pause on rate reductions. In addition, the impact of tariffs on all imported goods into the U.S. is expected to have a significant inflationary impact on all imports. The Russia and Ukraine and now the Israeli and Hamas conflict and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures, including causing increases in the price for goods and services and global supply chain disruptions, which have resulted and may continue to result in shortages in food products, materials and services. Such shortages have resulted and may continue to result in inflationary cost increases for labor, fuel, food products, materials and services, and could continue to cause costs to increase as well as result in the scarcity of certain materials. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation or other negative economic factors or associated increases in our operating costs and how that may impact our business. To the extent we and our customers we service are unable to recover higher operating costs resulting from inflation or otherwise mitigate the impact of such costs on our and their business, our revenues and gross profit could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

During the prior year, the Company began another R&D project consisting of the design and manufacture of an experimental installation for plasma activation of water by generating a plasma discharge in a water stream. The research and development expenditure is dependent on progress made on the development.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $9,000 and $1,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, interest expense is related to the SBA loan. During the current period the SBA loan was reconciled and reinstated from delinquent to in good standing, resulting in additional interest expense of $8,000 due to us curing the delinquency with the SBA.
Net loss
Net loss was $258,000 and $227,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, an increase in loss of $31,000. The increase in loss is primarily due to increase in general and administrative expenses and interest expense, discussed in detail above.
Liquidity and Capital Resource
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $258,000, used cash in operations of $219,000 and had accumulated deficit of $27,18,000 as of September 30, 2025. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company's June 30, 2025, financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company has cash in the amount of $30,000. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue to implement its business plan. Currently, management's plan is to increase revenues by using its Reserved Grant Back License to apply the technology to; (i) water and wastewater processing, recovery, recycling and purification (including oilfield wastewater) and; (ii) manufacture, distillation, brewing, enhancements, sale and marketing of alcoholic beverages, together the Licensed Fields. The Company has a worldwide, exclusive, transferable and royalty-free license and right to design, build, use, export, improve, sell and market Nano Reactor® devices and Nano Reactor® devices and systems (and products) that incorporate or utilize Nano Reactor® devices, in each case within the Licensed Fields, and to continue to use the Nano Reactor® trademark in connection with its business, systems and products within the Licensed Fields. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company believes it has enough cash to sustain operations through December 31, 2025.
The Company may also attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. There is no assurance that such financing will be available in the future or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet the Company's needs, that the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations or that the Company will be able to meet its future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, the Company may curtail its operations.
Cash Flow
Net cash used in operating activities was $219,000 and $175,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily due to cash used in operating expenses and an increase in the movement in cash used for working capital purposes.
Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are used for allowance for impairment analysis for property and equipment, accrual of potential liabilities, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and assumption in valuing our stock options, warrants, and common stock issued for services, among other items. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients. Revenue from sale of our Nano Reactors is recognized when products are shipped from our manufacturing facilities as this is our sole performance obligation under these contracts and we have no continuing obligation to the customer. In addition, the Company also recognizes revenues from usage fees of certain reactors. Usage fees are recognized based on actual usage by the customer.
