Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025 ("Amendment No. 1") to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025, originally filed on May 20, 2025, amended on May XX, 2025, to restate the Company's consolidated financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025.
During the preparation of the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company determined that historical accounting errors existed related primarily to the classification, valuation, and collectability assessment of long-term receivables and contract assets, as well as warrant issuance, and the timing of revenue recognition and related interest income under U.S. GAAP.
Accordingly, the Company determined (i) that the impact of the errors was material for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, (ii) to amend the Annual Report and restate the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 therein to correct those errors, and (iii) to amend the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2025, and restate the financial statements in those Quarterly Reports.
The restatement adjustments in this Amendment No. 1 include reclassifications of receivables, recognition of write-offs, adjustments to allowance for credit losses, and present value adjustments related to long-term financing receivables, and warrant issuance and change in fair value of the warrants. as more fully described in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements. Certain portions of the cumulative effect of these adjustments relate to periods prior to January 1, 2023, and have been reflected as prior period adjustments in the accompanying financial statements. See Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 for additional information and a reconciliation of the previously reported amounts to the restated amounts.
This Amendment No. 1 reflects only the correction of the errors described above and does not otherwise update or modify disclosures contained in the Annual Report, except as required to reflect the restated financial statements and related disclosures. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the date of the Quarterly Report and should be read in conjunction with the Quarterly Report and the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company's financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented, in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal year end December 31, 2024 report (Restated). The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated) are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2025.
The summary of significant accounting policies of Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
Reverse Stock Split and Retroactive Adjustment
All share and per-share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 1-for-15 reverse stock split effective October 6, 2025. The retroactive adjustment has been applied to: (i) common shares issued and outstanding, (ii) weighted-average common shares outstanding used in computing basic and diluted (loss) per share, (iii) (loss) per share amounts, and (iv) the par value of common stock.
Corporate History
We were incorporated in California in July 1995 under the name Probe Manufacturing Industries, Inc. We redomiciled to Nevada in April 2005 under the name Probe Manufacturing, Inc. We manufactured electronics and provided services to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of industrial, automotive, semiconductor, medical, communication, military, and high technology products. On September 11, 2015 Clean Energy HRS, or "CE HRS", our wholly owned subsidiary acquired the assets of Heat Recovery Solutions from General Electric International. In November 2015, we changed our name to Clean Energy Technologies, Inc.
Our principal executive offices are located at 1340 Reynolds Avenue, Irvine, CA 92614. Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "CETY."
Our internet website address is www.cetyinc.com. The information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this document, and you should not consider any information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website as part of this document.
The Company has four reportable segments: Clean Energy HRS (HRS) & CETY Europe, CETY Renewables waste to energy, and engineering, consulting & management services, and CETY HK NG trading.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had a total stockholder's equity of $1,635,842 and a working capital deficit of 3,846,696 as of March 31, 2025 (Restated). The company also had an accumulated deficit of $29,151,162 as of March 31, 2025 (Restated). In addition, the Company has had continued negative cash flows used in operating activities. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its goals and reach profitable operations and is still dependent upon its ability (1) to obtain sufficient debt and/or equity capital and/or (2) to generate positive cash flow from operations.

The terms of the joint venture are subject to the execution of definitive agreements. CETY HK has not commenced business with Shenzhen Gas due to macro-economic factors such as falling NG prices and reduced industrial demand. CETY HK will wait until macro economic factors have improved before commencement of the Shenzhen Gas joint venture.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The summary of significant accounting policies of Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. (formerly Probe Manufacturing, Inc.) is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
The consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates may be materially different from actual financial results. Significant estimates include the recoverability of long-lived assets, the collection of accounts receivable and valuation of inventory and reserves.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We maintain the majority of our cash accounts at JP Morgan Chase bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000, (which we may exceed from time to time) per commercial bank. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of one year or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Our ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by us. Reserves for un-collectable amounts are provided, based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts. Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts. As of March 31, 2025 (Restated), and December 31, 2024 (Restated), we had a reserve for potentially un-collectable accounts receivable of nil. Our policy for reserves for our long-term financing receivables is determined on a contract-by-contract basis and considers the length of the financing arrangement. As of March 31, 2025 (Restated), and December 31, 2024 (Restated), we had a reserve for potentially un-collectable long-term financing receivables of $217,584.
Eight customers accounted for approximately 98% of accounts receivable on March 31, 2025. Our trade accounts primarily represent unsecured receivables. Historically, our bad debt write-offs related to these trade accounts have been insignificant.
Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or market value. Our industry experiences changes in technology, changes in market value and availability of raw materials, as well as changing customer demand. We make provisions for estimated excess and obsolete inventories based on regular audits and cycle counts of our on-hand inventory levels and forecasted customer demands and at times additional provisions are made. Any inventory write offs are charged to the reserve account. As of March 31, 2025 we had a reserve of $576,704 as compared to a reserve of $934,344 as of December 31, 2024.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at lease inception at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the related assets. The cost of ordinary maintenance and repairs is charged to operations. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:
Furniture and fixtures 3 to 5 years
Equipment 5 to 10 years
Long - Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives, and operating lease right-of-use assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset's carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducts its long-lived asset impairment analyses in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, "Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." ASC 360-10-15 requires the Company to group assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and evaluate the asset group against the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows. If the undiscounted cash flows do not indicate the carrying amount of the asset is recoverable, an impairment charge is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group asset group exceeds its fair value based on discounted cash flow analysis or appraisals. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," ("ASC 606").
Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time
FASB ASC 606-10-25-27 through 25-29, 25-36 through 25-37, 55-5 through 55-10
An entity transfers control of a good or service over time and satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time if one of the following criteria is met:
a. The customer receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity's performance as the entity performs (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-55-5 through 55-6).
b. The entity's performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-55-7).
c. The entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity (see FASB ASC 606-10-25-28), and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-25-29).
Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time
FASB ASC 606-10-25-30
If a performance obligation is not satisfied over time, the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. To determine the point in time at which a customer obtains control of a promised asset and the entity satisfies a performance obligation, the entity should consider the guidance on control in FASB ASC 606-10-25-23 through 25-26. In addition, it should consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
a. The entity has a present right to payment for the asset
b. The customer has legal title to the asset
c. The entity has transferred physical possession of the asset
d. The customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset
e. The customer has accepted the asset
The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. 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 goods and services transferred to the customer. In addition, a) the company also does not have an alternative use for the asset if the customer were to cancel the contract, and b) has a fully enforceable right to receive payment for work performed (i.e., customers are required to pay as various milestones and/or timeframes are met)
The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle for our HRS and Cety Europe Divisions:
| ● | Identify the contract with the customer | |
| ● | Identify the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Determine the transaction price | |
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation |
The following steps are applied to our legacy engineering and manufacturing division:
| ● | We generate a quotation | |
| ● | We receive Purchase orders from our customers. | |
| ● | We build the product to their specification | |
| ● | We invoice at the time of shipment | |
| ● | The terms are typically Net 30 days |
The following step is applied to our CETY HK business unit:
| ● | CETY HK is primarily responsible for fulfilling the contract / promise to provide the specified good or service. |
A principal obtains control over any one of the following (ASC 606-10-55-37A):
| a. | A good or another asset from the other party which the entity then transfers to the customer. Note that momentary control before transfer to the customer may not qualify. | |
| b. | A right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the entity the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customer on the entity's behalf. | |
| c. | A good or service from the other party that it then combines with other goods or services in providing the specified good or service to the customer. |
If the entity obtains control over one of the above before the good or service is transferred to a customer, the entity could be considered a principal.
Additionally, the above five steps are applied to achieve core principle for our CETY Renewables Division:
Because the CETY Renewables division is presently engaged in the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) of biomass power facilities, CETY Renewables has developed a process of executing EPC Agreements with customers for this work. In contracting these engagements, CETY Renewables recognizes revenue according to accounting standards in accordance with ASC 606.
In recognizing this revenue, CETY Renewables first identifies the relevant contract with its customer according to 606-10-25-1.
| ● | The entities, together known as the Parties, approved the contract in writing, through signatures and commitment to the performance of permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning. |
| ● | CETY's work product includes permits, engineering designs, equipment, and full balance of plant specific to permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning. |
| ● | CETY and customer agree to a total EPC contract price. |
| ● | The contract has commercial substance. The risk associated with this EPC Agreement is that payment of the EPC contract price. |
| ● | Per the EPC Agreement, CETY expects to collect substantially all of the consideration for its goods and services. |
Secondly, CETY identifies the performance obligations of the Parties in performance of the EPC Agreement in accordance with 606-10-25-14. At contract inception, CETY assesses the goods and services necessary to deliver the facility in accordance with its agreement with clients. The agreement specifically laid out all deliverables necessary to achieve the permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
CETY also looks at 606-10-25-14(A). A bundle of goods or services is also present, in that CETY is delivering all work products associated with permitting, design, procurement, construction and commissioning of a commercially operable biomass power plant. A biomass power plant is a distinct bundle of goods or services, so the individual goods or services on their own do not lend themselves to a fully integrated or functional system.
CETY in accordance with 606-10-32-1, CETY reviews measurement of the performance obligations. There is no exclusion of any amount of the Contract Price due to constraints associated with 606-10-31-11 through 606-10-32-13.
In review of 606-10-32-2A, CETY did not exclude measurement from the measurement of the transaction price any taxes assessed by a government authority as no such taxes will be due.
In reviewing 606-10-32-3, CETY evaluated the nature, timing, and amount of consideration promised, and whether it impacts the estimate of the transaction price.
Finally, in identifying a single method of measuring progress for each performance obligation satisfied over time, in accordance with 606-10-25-32, CETY applies the methodology of 606-10-25-36. CETY adopted and implemented the input method for revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-33. The company adopts the input method for implementation. CETY recognizes revenue for performance obligations on the basis of the entity's efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance obligation per 606-10-55-20.
For CETY, the contracts with clients for the construction of biomass power plants are the basis for revenue recognition. In each separate EPC Agreement, the performance obligations include permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning of the plant. All of these work products satisfy Section 606-10-25-27(b) as these work products create or enhance an asset under customer's control. Upon delivery of the work product, the customer takes control of the work products and has full right and ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the assets. We recognize revenue over time, using timeline and milestone methods to measure progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.
During the complexity and duration of the biomass power plant construction projects, CETY will recognize revenue over time, consistent with the criteria for over-time recognition under ASC 606. This approach reflects the continuous transfer of documents, permits, and the equipment over to the customer, which is characteristic of long-term construction contracts.
We have a list of appropriate measures of progress: This is based on milestones achieved, among other measures.
Given the long-term nature of the projects, CETY regularly reviews and, if necessary, updates its estimates of progress towards completion, transaction price, and the allocation of the transaction price to performance obligations.
Also, from time to time our contracts state that the customer is not obligated to pay a final payment until the units are commissioned, i.e. a final payment of 10%. As of December 31, 2024 and March 31,2025 we had $33,000 and 33,000 of deferred revenue, which is expected to be recognized in the second quarter of year 2025.
Also from time to time we require upfront deposits from our customers based on the contract. As of March 31,2025 (Restated), and December 31, 2024 (Restated), we had outstanding customer deposits of $270,134 and $172,061 respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:
| ● | Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
| ● | Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. | |
| ● | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company's derivative liabilities have been valued as Level 3 instruments. We value the derivative liability using a lattice model, with a volatility of 56% and using a risk free interest rate of 0.15% |
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, prepaid expenses, inventory, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and convertible notes payable. The estimated fair value of cash, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible notes payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)
We have no material components of other comprehensive income (loss) and accordingly, net loss is equal to comprehensive loss in all periods. The accounts of the Company's Chinese entities are maintained in RMB. The accounts of the Chinese entities were translated into USD in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 830 "Foreign Currency Matters." All assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates and the statements of operations and cash flows are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220, "Comprehensive Income." Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the statements of operations.
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 220-10, "Comprehensive Income (loss)." Comprehensive income (loss) comprises net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of changes in stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in additional paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders.
Change from fair value or equity method to consolidation
In July 2022, JHJ and other three shareholders agreed to form and make total capital contribution of RMB 20 million ($2.81 million) with latest contribution due date in February 2066 into Sichuan Hongzuo Shuya Energy Limited ("Shuya"), JHK owns 20% of Shuya. In August 2022, JHJ purchased 100% ownership of Sichuan Shunengwei Energy Technology Limited ("SSET") for $0, who owns 29% of Shuya; Shunengwei is a holding company and did not have any operations nor made any capital contribution into Shuya as of the ownership purchase date by JHJ; right after the ownership purchase of SSET, JHJ ultimately owns 49% of Shuya.
Shuya was set up as the operating entity for pipeline natural gas (PNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) trading business, while the other two shareholders of Shuaya have large supply relationships.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company has determined that Shuya was not a VIE and has evaluated its consolidation analysis under the voting interest model. Because the Company does not own greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares, either directly or indirectly, it has accounted for its investment in Shuya under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the investor ("JHJ") recognizes its share of the profits and losses of the investee ("Shuya") in the periods when these profits and losses are also reflected in the accounts of the investee. Any profit or loss recognized by the investing entity appears in its income statement. Also, any recognized profit increases the investment recorded by the investing entity, while a recognized loss decreases the investment.
JHJ made a investment of RMB 3.91 million ($0.55 million) into Shuya during the 12 months ended December 31, 2022 recorded in accordance with ASC 323. Shuya had a net loss of approximately $10,750 during the year ending December 31, 2022, of which approximately $5,000 was allocated to the company, reducing the investment by that amount.
However, effective January 1, 2023, JHJ, SSEN and Chengdu Xiangyueheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd ("Xiangyueheng), who is the 10% shareholder of Shuya, entered a Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, wherein these three shareholders (or three parties) will guarantee that the voting rights will be expressed in the same way at the shareholders' meeting of Shuya to consolidate the controlling position of the three parties in Shuya. The three parties agree that within the validity period of this agreement, before the party intends to propose the motions to the shareholders or the board of directors on the major matters related to the voting rights of the shareholders or the board of directors, the three parties internally will discuss, negotiate and coordinate the motion topics for consistency; in the event of disagreement, the opinions of JHJ shall prevail.
As a result of Consistent Action Agreement, the Company re-analyzed and determined that Shuya is the variable interest entity ("VIE") of JHJ because 1) the equity investors at risk, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, and 2) Shuya is structured with disproportionate voting rights, and substantially all of the activities are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. Under ASC 810, a reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a VIE, and must consolidate that VIE, if the reporting entity has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE's economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company concluded JHJ is deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, the Company consolidates Shuya effective on January 1, 2023.
The change of control interest was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, referred to as ASC, 805, Business Combinations. The management determined that the Company was the acquiror for financial accounting purposes. In identifying the Company as the accounting acquiror, the companies considered the structure of the transaction and other actions contemplated by the Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, relative outstanding share ownership and market values, the composition of the combined company's board of directors, the relative size of Shuya, and the designation of certain senior management positions of the combined company.
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company recorded the acquisition based on the fair value of the consideration transferred and then allocated the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the Acquisition Date. The excess of the value of consideration transferred over the aggregate fair value of those net assets was recorded as goodwill. Any identified definite lived intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives and any identified intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually. All intangible assets and goodwill will be tested for impairment when certain indicators are present. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenues and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies.
The valuation of purchase considerations was based on preliminary estimates that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
As the Consistent Action Agreement did not quantify any considerations to gain the control, the deemed consideration paid is the fair value of 51% non-controlling interest as of January 1, 2023. The following table summarizes the fair value of the consideration paid and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on January 1, 2023, the acquisition date.
| Fair value of non-controlling interests | $ | 650,951 | ||
| Fair value of previously held equity investment | 556,096 | |||

Under ASC-805-10-50-2, initial consolidation of an investee previously reported using fair value or the equity method should be accounted for prospectively as of the date the entity obtained a controlling financial interest. Therefore, the Company should provide pro forma information as if the consolidation had occurred as of the beginning of each of the current and prior comparative reporting period per
On January 1, 2024, and effective on the same date, JHJ, SSET and Xiangyueheng entered into the Agreement on the Termination of the Concerted Action Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties released each other from any and all obligations under the CAA. Due to the Termination Agreement, the Company now holds less than 50% of the voting rights in Shuya. The Company analyzed whether Shuya should be consolidated under ASC 810 and determined Shuya is no longer required to be consolidated on January 1, 2024 after the execution of the Termination Agreement. Accordingly, the Company will not consolidate Shuya into its consolidated financial statements on or after January 1, 2024.
Net (Loss) per Common Share
Basic (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. At March 31, 2025, we had outstanding common shares of 3,165,229. Basic Weighted average common shares and equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 were 3,107,559 and 2,676,260 respectively. As of March 31, 2025, we had convertible notes, convertible into approximately 248,467 of additional common shares and outstanding warrants of 195,440 shares. Fully diluted weighted average common shares and equivalents were withheld from the calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 as they were considered anti-dilutive.
Research and Development
We had no amounts of research and development (R&D) expense during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.
Segment Disclosure
FASB Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise's reportable segments. The Company has four reportable segments: Clean Energy HRS (HRS), CETY Europe, CETY HK and engineering & manufacturing services division. The segments are determined based on several factors, including the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics. Refer to note 1 for a description of the various product categories manufactured under each of these segments.
An operating segment's performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net sales less cost of sales, and segment selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, other charges (income), net and interest and other, net.

Share-Based Compensation
The Company has adopted the use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123R) (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related implementation guidance and eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25's intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. This Statement requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instruments, which includes grants of stock options and stock warrants, based on the fair value of the award, measured at the grant date (with limited exceptions). Under this standard, the fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date, using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our equity awards, including stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of SFAS No. 123R; however, the fair values generated may not reflect their actual fair values, as it does not consider certain factors, such as vesting requirements, employee attrition and transferability limitations. The Black-Scholes model valuation is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility and estimated life of our stock options at grant date based on historical volatility. For the "risk-free interest rate," we use the Constant Maturity Treasury rate on 90-day government securities. The term is equal to the time until the option expires. The dividend yield is not applicable, as the Company has not paid any dividends, nor do we anticipate paying them in the foreseeable future. The fair value of our restricted stock is based on the market value of our free trading common stock, on the grant date calculated using a 20-trading-day average. At the time of grant, the share-based compensation expense is recognized in our financial statements based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest using historical employee attrition rates and the expense is reduced accordingly. It is also adjusted to account for the restricted and thinly traded nature of the shares. The expense is reviewed and adjusted in subsequent periods if actual attrition differs from those estimates.
We re-evaluate the assumptions used to value our share-based awards on a quarterly basis and, if changes warrant different assumptions, the share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from the amount expensed in the past. We may be required to adjust any remaining share-based compensation expense, based on any additions, cancellations or adjustments to the share-based awards. The expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award-the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.
Leases
The Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, or ASC 842, using the modified retrospective transition method with a cumulative effect adjustment to be accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019, and accordingly, modified its policy on accounting for leases as stated below. As described under "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements," below, the primary impact of adopting ASC 842 for the Company was the recognition in the consolidated balance sheet of certain lease-related assets and liabilities for operating leases with terms longer than 12 months.
The Company's leases primarily consist of facility leases which are classified as operating leases. The Company assesses whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. The Company recognizes a lease liability to make contractual payments under all leases with terms greater than twelve months and a corresponding right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term using the collateralized incremental borrowing rate since the implicit rate is unknown. Options to extend or terminate a lease are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such an option. The right-of-use asset is initially measured as the contractual lease liability plus any initial direct costs and prepaid lease payments made, less any lease incentives. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leased right-of-use assets are subject to impairment testing as a long-lived asset at the asset-group level. The Company monitors its long-lived assets for indicators of impairment. As the Company's leased right-of-use assets primarily relate to facility leases, early abandonment of all or part of facility as part of a restructuring plan is typically an indicator of impairment. If impairment indicators are present, the Company tests whether the carrying amount of the leased right-of-use asset is recoverable including consideration of sublease income, and if not recoverable, measures impairment loss for the right-of-use asset or asset group.
Income Taxes
Federal Income taxes are not currently due since we have had losses since inception of Clean Energy Technologies.
On December 22, 2018 H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the "Tax Act") was enacted. Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate ("Federal Tax Rate") from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company will compute its income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 using a Federal Tax Rate of 21% and an estimated state of California rate of 9%.
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes - Recognition. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the "more likely than not" standard required by ASC 740-10-25-5.
Deferred income tax amounts reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes.
As of December 31, 2024 (Restated), we had a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $35,105,018 and a deferred tax asset of $8,288,051 using the statutory rate of 30%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years. However, due to the uncertainty of future events we have booked valuation allowance of $(8,254,056). FASB ASC 740 prescribes recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At December 31, 2024 the Company did not take any tax positions that would require disclosure under FASB ASC 740.
On February 13, 2018, Clean Energy Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Registrant" or "Corporation") entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement ("Stock Purchase Agreement") by and between MGW Investment I Limited ("MGWI") and the Corporation. The Corporation received $907,388 in exchange for the issuance of 302,462,667 restricted shares of the Corporation's common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock").
On February 13, 2018, the Corporation and Confections Ventures Limited. ("CVL") entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the "Convertible Note Purchase Agreement," together with the Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, the "Financing") pursuant to which the Corporation issued to CVL a convertible promissory Note (the "CVL Note") in the principal amount of $939,500 with an interest rate of 10% per annum interest rate and a maturity date of February 13, 2020. The CVL Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at $0.12 per share, as adjusted as provided therein. This note was assigned to MGW Investments.
This resulted in a change in control, which limited the net operating to that date forward. We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and the states of California. Further, the Company currently has no open tax years' subject to audit prior to December 31, 2015. The Company is current on its federal and state tax returns.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income, total assets, or stockholders' equity as previously reported.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Deferred Stock Issuance Costs
Deferred stock issuance costs represent amounts paid for legal, consulting, and other offering expenses in conjunction with the future raising of additional capital to be performed within one year. These costs are netted against additional paid-in capital as a cost of the stock issuance upon closing of the respective stock placement. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024 no stock issuance costs were capitalized.

NOTE 6 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets were comprised of the following at:

| Goodwill | $ | 747,976 | 747,976 | |||||
| LWL Intangibles | 1,468,709 | 1,468,709 | ||||||

| Net Intangible Assets | $ | 2,650,948 | 2,653,917 | |||||
Our Amortization Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $2,969 and 2,969 respectively.
As of both March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, goodwill amounted to $747,976. The Company classifies goodwill as having an indefinite life, and as such, it is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment testing. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The useful life of goodwill is considered indefinite due to the continued potential to generate economic benefits from the business acquired. The Company conducts impairment testing based on projected future cash flows of the acquired business and other relevant factors.
The LWL Investment balance of $1,468,709 as of both March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, is classified as having an indefinite life. This classification is based on the nature of the investment, which is expected to provide continued economic benefits without a foreseeable end date. The Company conducts an annual review to assess whether this classification remains appropriate, including evaluating the investment's ability to generate cash flows and the continued support of the investment's carrying value.
The License balance remained unchanged at $354,322 for both 2025 and 2024. The License is considered to have a finite life, and as such, it is subject to amortization over its estimated useful life. The Company estimates the useful life of the License based on the legal term and any other relevant factors, such as the expected technological obsolescence or the duration of the agreement. The amortization of this asset is reflected in the Company's financial statements.
The Patents balance, after amortization, was $79,941 as of March 31, 2025, and $82,910 as of December 31, 2024. Patents are classified as having a finite life and are amortized over their expected useful life, typically based on the legal protection period, which is generally 20 years from the filing date, or the expected period of the patent's utility. The Company evaluates the carrying value of patents regularly to ensure that their estimated useful life and amortization period remain appropriate. Amortization expense for the period pertains to the systematic allocation of the cost of patents over their estimated useful lives.
Based on the foregoing analysis of the facts surrounding the Company's acquisition of LWL, it is the Company's position that the Company is the acquirer of LWL, under the acquisition method of accounting.
As such, as of November 8, 2021 (the acquisition date), the Company recognized, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the Business combination.
The following table presents the purchase price allocation:
| Consideration: | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,500,000 | ||
| Total purchaser consideration | $ | 1,500,000 | ||

If LWL had reached USD 5 million in revenue or net profit of USD 1 million by December 31, 2023, then based on the performance contingency there will be issuance of 500,000 shares of CETY to the Seller. The performance contingencies were not met. Since the performance metrics were clearly defined and objectively not met, the contingency is considered extinguished and no accrual is warranted.

NOTE 9 - WARRANT LIABILITY
On December 5, 2024, the Company entered into an Equity Line of Credit Agreement with Mast Hill Fund, L.P. (the "Investor"), pursuant to which the Investor committed to provide up to $5.0 million to the Company.
In connection with the agreement, the Company issued a purchase warrant to the Investor to purchase up to 33,333 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $30.00 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The warrant is exercising upon issuance and expires on the second anniversary of the issuance date.
The warrant contains a down-round provision whereby the exercise price will be reduced if the Company issues common stock, options, or convertible securities at a price below the then-current exercise price of the warrant.
The warrant was classified as a liability and initially recorded at fair value of $104,744 upon issuance. As of March 31, 2025, the fair value of the warrant liability was remeasured to $95,986. The Company recognized a loss from the change in fair value of warrant liability of $17,837 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

NOTE 10 - LINE OF CREDIT AND NOTES PAYABLE
On November 11, 2013, we entered into an accounts receivable financing agreement with American Interbanc (now Nations Interbanc). Amounts outstanding under the agreement bear interest at the rate of 2.5% annually. It is secured by the assets of the Company. In addition, it is personally guaranteed by Kambiz Mahdi, our Chief Executive Officer. As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding balance was $621,870 compared to $662,804 at December 31, 2024.
On April 1, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the purchase order financing agreement with DHN Capital, LLC dba Nations Interbanc. Nations Interbanc has lowered the accrued fees balance by $275,000 as well as the accrual rate to 2.25% per 30 days. As a result, CETY has agreed to remit a minimum monthly payment of $25,000 by the final calendar day of each month.
During the year, the Company entered into several "sale of future receipts" / merchant cash-advance arrangements with Reliance Financial FL LLC, as well as a subordinated business loan with Agile Lending, LLC and a purchase order financing facility with Nations Interbanc. Although certain Reliance contracts are legally structured as non-recourse "sales" of future business receipts, management concluded that these arrangements do not involve the transfer of discrete existing financial assets that would qualify for derecognition under ASC 860. Instead, the Company continues to generate and collect its operating cash receipts and remits amounts to the lenders until the contractual repayment amounts have been satisfied.
Accordingly, the Reliance, Agile and Nations Interbanc arrangements are accounted for as interest-bearing financing liabilities within the scope of ASC 470 and ASC 835. The Company records the net proceeds received as short-term debt and recognizes the excess of the total contractual repayment amounts (including any origination fees, daily fees and make-whole or prepayment charges) over the net proceeds as debt discounts or financing costs, which are amortized to interest expense using the simple interest method over the expected repayment periods. Legal and other third-party costs that are directly attributable to obtaining these financings are capitalized as debt issuance costs and presented as a direct deduction from the related liabilities.
On or about October 31, 2024, and December 24, 2024, the Company borrowed approximately $104,500, and $75,000, respectively, from Reliance ("Reliance") pursuant to short-term cash advance loans.

On or about July 15, 2024, August 6, 2024, and October 10, 2024, the Company borrowed approximately $131,750, and $68,500, and $66,000 respectively, from Agile pursuant to short-term cash advance loans. Under the loan agreements, approximately $141,409 and $69,677, and 43,345 respectively, was due to Agile, amortizing and to be repaid over approximately 32 weeks, and as of June 1, 2026, the balance on the loans was approximately $0 and $0, respectively.

Operating Rental Leases
ASB ASU 2016-02 "Leases (Topic 842)" - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but has been updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted the above ASU as of January 1, 2019. The right of use asset and lease liability have been recorded at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, utilizing an average borrowing rate and the company is utilizing the transition relief and "running off" on current leases.

All outstanding shares of common stock are, and the common stock to be issued will be, fully paid and non-assessable. Each share of our common stock has identical rights and privileges in every respect. The holders of our common stock are entitled to vote upon all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders and are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held. There are no cumulative voting rights.
The holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally in dividends and other distributions that our Board of Directors may declare from time to time out of funds legally available for that purpose, if any, after the satisfaction of any prior rights and preferences of any outstanding preferred stock. If we liquidate, dissolve or wind up, the holders of common stock shares will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of our assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all our liabilities and our obligations to holders of our outstanding preferred stock.

Our Board of Directors is also authorized to set the powers, privileges, preferences, and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series.
Unless our Board of Directors provides otherwise, the shares of all series of preferred stock will rank on parity with respect to the payment of dividends and to the distribution of assets upon liquidation. Any issuance by us of shares of our preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of our control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The issuance of preferred stock also could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock.
We previously authorized 440 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 20,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and 15,000 shares Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. As of August 20, 2006, all series A, B, and C preferred had been converted into common stock.

The following are primary terms of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred holders were initially entitled to be paid a special monthly divide at the rate of 17.5% per annum. Initially, the Series D Preferred Stock was also entitled to be paid special dividends in the event cash dividends were not paid when scheduled. If the Company does not pay the dividend within five (5) business days from the end of the calendar month for which the payment of such dividend is owed, the Company will pay the investor a special dividend of an additional 3.5%. Any unpaid or accrued special dividends will be paid upon liquidation or redemption. For any other dividends or distributions, the Series D Preferred Stock participates with common stock on an as-converted basis. The Series D Preferred holders may elect to convert the Series D Preferred Stock, in their sole discretion, at any time after a one-year (1) year holding period, by sending the Company a notice to convert. The conversion rate is equal to the greater of $3.20 or a 20% discount to the average of the three (3) lowest closing market prices of the common stock during the ten (10) trading day period prior to conversion. The Series D Preferred Stock is redeemable from funds legally available for distribution at the option of the individual holders of the Series D Preferred Stock commencing any time after the one (1) year period from the offering closing at a price equal to the initial purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, provided, that if the Company gave notice to the investors that it was not in a financial position to redeem the Series D Preferred, the Company and the Series D Preferred holders are obligated to negotiate in good faith for an extension of the redemption period. The Company timely notified the investors that it was not in a financial position to redeem the Series D Preferred and the Company and the investors have engaged in ongoing negotiations to determine an appropriate extension period. The Company may elect to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock any time at a price equal to the initial purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, subject to the investors' right to convert, by providing written notice about its intent to redeem.

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE"). The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a VIE. The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from both parties. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 49/51 and the agreement provides for a Management Committee of 3 members. Two of the three members are from Synergy Bioproducts Corporation, and one is from CETY. Both parties do not have substantial capital at risk and CETY does not have voting interest. However, SBC has controlling interest and more board votes therefore SBC is the beneficiary of the VIE and as a result we record it as an equity investment. Accordingly, the Company has elected to account for the joint venture as an equity method investment in accordance with ASC 323 Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures. This decision is a result of the company's evaluation of its involvement with potential variable interest entities and their respective risk and reward scenarios, which collectively affirm that the conditions necessitating the application of the variable interest model are not present.
NOTE 16 - THE STATUTORY RESERVES
The Company's ability to pay dividends primarily depends on it receiving funds from its subsidiaries. PRC laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Company's PRC subsidiaries only out of the subsidiary's retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Company's PRC subsidiaries.
In accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment and their articles of association, a foreign-invested enterprise ("FIE") established in the PRC is required to provide statutory reserves, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the FIE's PRC statutory accounts. An FIE is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the surplus reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its respective registered capital based on the FIE's PRC statutory accounts. Appropriations to other funds are at the discretion of the BOD for all FIEs. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. Additionally, shareholders of an FIE are required to contribute capital to satisfy the registered capital requirement of the FIE. Until such contribution of capital is satisfied, the FIE is not allowed to repatriate profits to its shareholders, unless otherwise approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange.
Additionally, in accordance with the Company Laws of the PRC, a domestic enterprise is required to provide surplus reserve at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise's PRC statutory accounts. A domestic enterprise is also required to have a discretionary surplus reserve, at the discretion of the BOD, from the profits determined in accordance with the enterprise's PRC statutory accounts. Appropriation to such reserve by the Company is based on profit arrived at under PRC accounting standards for business enterprises for each year. The profit arrived at must be set off against any accumulated losses sustained by the Company in prior years, before allocation is made to the statutory reserve. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. Technology was established as domestic enterprises and therefore are subject to the above-mentioned restrictions on distributable profits.
As a result of these PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment of dividends as general reserve fund, the Company's PRC subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company as a dividend.
In addition, according to Administrative Measures for the Collection and Utilization of Enterprise Work Safety Funds issued by the PRC Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety, for the companies with dangerous goods production or storage, the company is required to make a special reserve for the use of enhancing and improving its safe production conditions. Under PRC GAAP, the reserve is recorded as selling expense; however, under US GAAP, since the expense has not been incurred and the Company will record cost of sales for safety related expenses when it is actually happened or incurred, this special reserve was recorded as an appropriation of its after-tax income. The reserve is calculated at a rate of 15% of total sales.

Business Overview
General
The Company's business and operating results are directly affected by changes in overall customer demand, operational costs and performance and leverage of our fixed cost and selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") infrastructure.
Product sales fluctuate in response to several factors including many that are beyond the Company's control, such as general economic conditions, interest rates, government regulations, consumer spending, labor availability, and our customers' production rates and inventory levels. Product sales consist of demand from customers in many different markets with different levels of cyclicality and seasonality.
Operating performance is dependent on the Company's ability to manage changes in input costs for items such as raw materials, labor, and overhead operating costs. Performance is also affected by manufacturing efficiencies, including items such as on time delivery, quality, scrap, and productivity. Market factors of supply and demand can impact operating costs.
Who We Are
We develop renewable energy products and solutions and establish partnerships in renewable energy that make environmental and economic sense. Our mission is to be a segment leader in the Zero Emission Revolution by offering recyclable energy solutions, clean energy fuels and alternative electric power for small and mid-sized projects in North America, Europe, and Asia. We target sustainable energy solutions that are profitable for us, profitable for our customers and represent the future of global energy production.

Summary of Operating Results the three months Ended March 31, 2025 (Restated) Compared to the same period in 2024 (Restated)
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had a total stockholder's equity of $1,635,842 and a working capital deficit of 3,846,696 as of March 31, 2025, The company also had an accumulated deficit of $29,098,072 as of March 31, 2025 and used 776,047 in net cash from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its goals and reach profitable operations and is still dependent upon its ability (1) to obtain sufficient debt and/or equity capital and/or (2) to generate positive cash flow from operations.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, our total revenue was $441,940 compared to $1,513,026 for the same period in 2024. Our total revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was lower compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to minimal contributions from our China natural gas business.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, our gross profit was $411,878 compared to $253,005 for the same period in 2024. Gross profit margins improved due to greater contributions from CETY's non-NG business in China, where our operations and technologies yield substantially higher margins compared to our NG segment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our operating expense was $824,656 compared to $1,073,926 for the same period in 2024. The decrease in expenses was primarily driven by lower salary costs from our China operations and a reduction in professional fees for legal and accounting services, which were elevated in the prior period due to costs associated with our S-3 registration.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $660,058 compared to $1,406,555 for the same period in 2024. The improvement was largely attributable to reduced salary expenses in our China operations, lower legal and accounting costs, and stronger margins generated by our U.S.-based businesses.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, stockholders' equity decrease by $261,304 to $1,635,841, compared to $1,897,145 as of December 31, 2024, primarily due to significant decrease in total revenue.
CETY has successfully repositioned itself as a diversified clean energy solutions provider by establishing four distinct business segments designed to support scalable, stable, and diversified revenue growth. These segments include:
| ● | Clean Energy HRS (Heat Recovery Systems) | |
| ● | Waste-to-Energy (via Pyrolysis Technology) | |
| ● | Engineering, Procurement, and Consulting (EPC) | |
| ● | CETY HK (Natural Gas Trading and Acquisitions) |
Revenue for the first quarter was primarily driven by the Clean Energy HRS and CETY Renewables segments. Looking ahead, the company anticipates stronger revenue contributions from its Waste-to-Energy, Heat Recovery, and EPC segments in the latter half of the year, segments which are expected to deliver higher gross margins.
CETY's pilot Waste-to-Energy facility in Vermont, which integrates all of the company's proprietary technologies and operational expertise into a unified, turnkey solution, is currently pending final approval from the Vermont Public Utility Commission.
Meanwhile, demand for Heat Recovery solutions is accelerating across both the U.S. and Europe. In parallel, CETY is actively scaling its Engineering and project management operations to deliver comprehensive self-generation energy solutions on a global scale.
Management believes this 4-segment strategy has created many operational synergies and cross-selling opportunities across different markets. The growth in the non-China operations in the first quarter of 2025 vs. same period in 2024 was a result of this strategy. CETY believes that it will continue to deliver growth on these segments this year. The main macro factor benefiting us is the global commitment to push renewable energy to the forefront from governments across the world. Another catalyst that will potentially help our Company, is a continuously improving our global supply chain and lowering our cost.
CETY expects to and will continue to execute its corporate strategy to build sustained and profitable growth by providing end to end fully integrated solutions and technologies, expand our global sales and marketing, production, research & development, as well as search for synergistic acquisition opportunities.

Results of the three Ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), Compared to the three ended March 31, 2024 (Restated)
Net Sales
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, our total revenue was $441,940 compared to 1,513,026 for the same period in 2024. The lower revenue was contributed to primarily due to minimal contributions from our China natural gas business.
Segment breakdown
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), our revenue from HRS was $262,354 compared to $72,488 for the same period in 2024. We have a large pipeline of opportunities in this segment and are working diligently to complete the engineering and design, enabling us to execute contractual agreements and close these opportunities. The sales cycle for these types of opportunities is long due to cost factors and the integration of the technology. We are also working with financial institutions to assist in financing the projects as customers are increasingly moving towards Independent Power Producer models.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue from the CETY Renewables segment was $176,105, compared to $211,568 for the same period in 2024. This segment is expected to remain relatively stable until construction activities commence later this year.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, CETY reported no revenue from its Engineering and Manufacturing segments, compared to $9,3421 for the same period in 2024. This segment is still in its early stages and much of the related activity is currently being integrated into the HRS and CETY Renewables segments. However, with a developing pipeline of opportunities, CETY expects to see gradual revenue growth from this segment over the coming quarters.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue from our natural gas (NG) business was $3,481, a decrease from $1,219,629 for the same period in 2024. This decline is primarily due to macroeconomic factors and our strategic decision to reduce focus on lower-margin business activities.
Gross Profit
In the three months ending March 31, 2025 (Restated), our gross profits totalled $411,878 marking a favourable increase compared to $253,005 recorded for the corresponding period in 2024. Gross profit margins improved due to greater contributions from CETY's non-NG business in China, where our operations and technologies yield substantially higher margins compared to our NG segment.
Segment breakdown
For the three months ending March 31, 2025, our gross profit from Engineering and Manufacturing amounted to $0, compared to 7,806 for the same period in 2024. This segment is a recent addition to CETY's portfolio, currently serving as a support for our ongoing internal projects. Nevertheless, it is anticipated to expand notably as CETY shifts its focus towards providing comprehensive end-to-end power generation and integrated solutions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), our gross profit from the HRS segment was $235,658, compared to $51,599 for the same period in 2024. This significant increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher revenues, which included equipment sales and the sale of products with lower costs, along with engineering services.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our gross profit from our wholly owned subsidiary, JHJ, was $115, down from $9,852 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily due to minimal business activity in China, which was partly a result of our strategic decision to reduce focus on lower-margin businesses in the region.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our SG&A expenses totaled $222,557, compared to $218,658 for the same period in 2024. This slight increase reflects stable and consistent expense management.
Salaries Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our salaries expense totaled $433,799, compared to $511,111 for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to reduced activity in our China natural gas business, while salary levels in other areas remained stable.
Travel Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our travel expenses were $32,377, compared to $29,652 for the same period in 2024. This slight increase reflects stable activity levels within our service and marketing operations.
Professional fees legal and accounting
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, our professional fees totaled $66,213, compared to $199,053 for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to reduced legal and consulting activity, as the first quarter of 2024 included higher costs related to our S-3 registration process.
Facility Lease and Maintenance Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our facility lease and maintenance expenses totaled $66,741, compared to $71,275 for the same period in 2024. This slight decrease reflects normal fluctuations, with no significant changes in underlying operations.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our depreciation and amortization expense was $2,969, unchanged from the same period in 2024. There were no significant changes, as the majority of our equipment has already been fully depreciated.
Change in Derivative Liability
The three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024; we had no derivative liability.
Change in FV of warrant liability
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we had $17,837 and nil loss on warrant liability related to Equity Line of Credit Agreement entered December 5, 2024.
Interest Income
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), interest income from Florya associated with long-term financing receivable totaled $14,050 compared to $12,845 for the same period in 2024 (Restated).
Interest and Finance Fees
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), interest and finance fees totaled $348,186, compared to $295,193 for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to two larger interim financings secured to bridge the company through the finalization of funding for the Vermont Renewable Project, aimed at addressing approximately $1.7 million in accounts receivable, and to support the completion of the S-3 registration.
Net Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Restated), our net loss was $660,058, compared to a net loss of $1,406,555 for the same period in 2024 (Restated). This significant decrease is primarily attributable to higher-margin revenue from the HRS segment-driven by equipment and technical sales-as well as stable contributions from CETY Renewables in support of the Vermont Renewable Gas Project. Additionally, reduced activity in the lower-margin China NG business contributed to improved overall financial performance.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," ("ASC 606").
Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time
FASB ASC 606-10-25-27 through 25-29, 25-36 through 25-37, 55-5 through 55-10
An entity transfers control of a good or service over time and satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time if one of the following criteria is met:
a. The customer receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity's performance as the entity performs (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-55-5 through 55-6).
b. The entity's performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-55-7).
c. The entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity (see FASB ASC 606-10-25-28), and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date (as described in FASB ASC 606-10-25-29).
The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle for our business:
| ● | Identify the contract with the customer | |
| ● | Identify the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Determine the transaction price | |
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation |
Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time
FASB ASC 606-10-25-30
If a performance obligation is not satisfied over time, the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. To determine the point in time at which a customer obtains control of a promised asset and the entity satisfies a performance obligation, the entity should consider the guidance on control in FASB ASC 606-10-25-23 through 25-26. In addition, it should consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
a. The entity has a present right to payment for the asset
b. The customer has legal title to the asset
c. The entity has transferred physical possession of the asset
d. The customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset
e. The customer has accepted the asset
The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. 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 goods and services transferred to the customer. In addition a) the company also does not have an alternative use for the asset if the customer were to cancel the contract, and b) has a fully enforceable right to receive payment for work performed (i.e., customers are required to pay as various milestones and/or timeframes are met)
The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle for our HRS and Cety Europe Divisions:
| ● | Identify the contract with the customer | |
| ● | Identify the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Determine the transaction price | |
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
| ● | Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation |
The following steps are applied to our legacy engineering and manufacturing division:
| ● | We generate a quotation | |
| ● | We receive Purchase orders from our customers. | |
| ● | We build the product to their specification | |
| ● | We invoice at the time of shipment | |
| ● | The terms are typically Net 30 days |
The following step is applied to our CETY HK business unit:
| ● | CETY HK is primarily responsible for fulfilling the contract / promise to provide the specified good or service. |
A principal obtains control over any one of the following (ASC 606-10-55-37A):
| a. | A good or another asset from the other party which the entity then transfers to the customer. Note that momentary control before transfer to the customer may not qualify. | |
| b. | A right to a service to be performed by the other party, which gives the entity the ability to direct that party to provide the service to the customer on the entity's behalf. | |
| c. | A good or service from the other party that it then combines with other goods or services in providing the specified good or service to the customer. |
If the entity obtains control over one of the above before the good or service is transferred to a customer, the entity could be considered a principal.
During the project development and engineering phase of our CETY Renewable projects such as VRG, we employ the input method of revenue recognition to estimate revenue based on projected costs. This approach involves forecasting future costs and revenues to determine the amount of revenue we recognize in the current period. It's important to understand, however, that these recognized revenue figures are not final and are subject to adjustments. Changes may occur as we gain more clarity on actual costs compared to our initial projections, affecting the revenue recognized accordingly.
The projected costs of the VRG project is based on estimates and profitability will be impacted depending on actual costs. Using the input method for revenue recognition, the amount of recorded revenue is also affected depending on the estimated total costs. The purchase price allocation for Shuya was also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company. The inputs for the valuation of the Series E preferred shares were also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company.
Additionally, the above five steps are applied to achieve core principle for our CETY Renewables Division:
Because the CETY Renewables division is presently engaged in the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) of biomass power facilities, CETY Renewables has developed a process of executing EPC Agreements with customers for this work. In contracting these engagements, CETY Renewables recognizes revenue according to accounting standards in accordance with ASC 606.
In recognizing this revenue, CETY Renewables first identifies the relevant contract with its customer according to 606-10-25-1.
| ● | The entities, together known as the Parties, approved the contract in writing, through signatures and commitment to the performance of permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning. | |
| ● | CETY's work product includes permits, engineering designs, equipment, and full balance of plant specific to permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning. | |
| ● | CETY and customer agree to a total EPC Contract price. | |
| ● | The contract has commercial substance. The risk associated with this EPC Agreement is that payment of the EPC contract price. | |
| ● | Per the EPC Agreement, CETY expects to collect substantially all of the consideration for its goods and services. |
Secondly, CETY identifies the performance obligations of the Parties in performance of the EPC Agreement in accordance with 606-10-25-14. At contract inception, CETY assesses the goods and services necessary to deliver the facility in accordance with the its agreement with its clients. The agreement specifically laid out all deliverables necessary to achieve the permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
CETY also looks at 606-10-25-14(A). A bundle of goods or services is also present, in that CETY is delivering all work products associated with permitting, design, procurement, construction and commissioning of a commercially operable biomass power plant. A biomass power plant is a distinct bundle of goods or services, so the individual goods or services on their own do not lend themselves to a fully integrated or functional system.
CETY in accordance with 606-10-32-1, CETY reviews measurement of the performance obligations. There are no exclusion of any amount of the Contract Price due to constraints associated with 606-10-31-11 through 606-10-32-13.
In review of 606-10-32-2A, CETY did not exclude measurement from the measurement of the transaction price any taxes assessed by a government authority as no such taxes will be due.
In reviewing 606-10-32-3, CETY evaluated the nature, timing, and amount of consideration promised, and whether it impacts the estimate of the transaction price.
Finally, in identifying a single method of measuring progress for each performance obligation satisfied over time, in accordance with 606-10-25-32, CETY applies the methodology of 606-10-25-36. CETY adopted and implemented the input method for revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-33. The company adopts the input method for implementation. CETY recognizes revenue for performance obligations on the basis of the entity's efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance obligation per 606-10-55-20.
For CETY, the contracts with clients for the construction of biomass power plants are the basis for revenue recognition. In each separate EPC Agreement, the performance obligations include permitting, design, procurement, construction, and commissioning of the plant. All of these work products satisfy Section 606-10-25-27(b) as these work products create or enhance an asset under customer's control. Upon delivery of the work product, the customer takes control of the work products and has full right and ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the assets. We recognize revenue over time, using timeline and milestone methods to measure progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.
During the complexity and duration of the biomass power plant construction projects, CETY will recognize revenue over time, consistent with the criteria for over-time recognition under ASC 606. This approach reflects the continuous transfer of documents, permits, and the equipment over to the customer, which is characteristic of long-term construction contracts.
We have a list of appropriate measures of progress: This is based on milestones achieved, among other measures.
Given the long-term nature of the projects, CETY regularly reviews and, if necessary, updates its estimates of progress towards completion, transaction price, and the allocation of the transaction price to performance obligations.
Also, from time to time our contracts state that the customer is not obligated to pay a final payment until the units are commissioned, i.e. a final payment of 10%. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 we had $33,000 and 33,000 of deferred revenue, which is expected to be recognized in the second quarter of year 2025.
Also from time to time we require upfront deposits from our customers based on the contract. As of March 31, 2025 (Restated) and December 31, 2024 (Restated) we had outstanding customer deposits of $270,134 and $172,061 respectively.
Change from fair value or equity method to consolidation
In July 2022, JHJ and other three shareholders agreed to form and make total capital contribution of RMB 20 million ($2.81 million) with latest contribution due date in February 2066 into Sichuan Hongzuo Shuya Energy Limited ("Shuya"), JHK owns 20% of Shuya. In August 2022, JHJ purchased 100% ownership of Sichuan Shunengwei Energy Technology Limited ("SSET") for $0, who owns 29% of Shuya; Shunengwei is a holding company and did not have any operations nor made any capital contribution into Shuya as of the ownership purchase date by JHJ; right after the ownership purchase of SSET, JHJ ultimately owns 49% of Shuya.
Shuya was set up as the operating entity for pipeline natural gas (PNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) trading business, while the other two shareholders of Shuaya have large supply relationships.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company has determined that Shuya was not a VIE and has evaluated its consolidation analysis under the voting interest model. Because the Company does not own greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares, either directly or indirectly, it has accounted for its investment in Shuya under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the investor ("JHJ") recognizes its share of the profits and losses of the investee ("Shuya") in the periods when these profits and losses are also reflected in the accounts of the investee. Any profit or loss recognized by the investing entity appears in its income statement. Also, any recognized profit increases the investment recorded by the investing entity, while a recognized loss decreases the investment.
JHJ made a investment of RMB 3.91 million ($0.55 million) into Shuya during the 12 months ended December 31, 2022 recorded in accordance with ASC 323. Shuya had a net loss of approximately $10,750 during the year ending December 31, 2022, of which approximately $5,000 was allocated to the company, reducing the investment by that amount.
However, effective January 1, 2023, JHJ, SSET and Chengdu Xiangyueheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd ("Xiangyueheng), who is the 10% shareholder of Shuya, entered a Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, wherein these three shareholders (or three parties) will guarantee that the voting rights will be expressed in the same way at the shareholders' meeting of Shuya to consolidate the controlling position of the three parties in Shuya. The three parties agree that within the validity period of this agreement, before the party intends to propose the motions to the shareholders or the board of directors on the major matters related to the voting rights of the shareholders or the board of directors, the three parties internally will discuss, negotiate and coordinate the motion topics for consistency; in the event of disagreement, the opinions of JHJ shall prevail.
As a result of Consistent Action Agreement, the Company re-analyzed and determined that Shuya is the variable interest entity ("VIE") of JHJ because 1) the equity investors at risk, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, and 2) Shuya is structured with disproportionate voting rights, and substantially all of the activities are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. Under ASC 810, a reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a VIE, and must consolidate that VIE, if the reporting entity has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE's economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company concluded JHJ is deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, the Company consolidates Shuya effective on January 1, 2023.
The change of control interest was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, referred to as ASC, 805, Business Combinations. The management determined that the Company was the acquiror for financial accounting purposes. In identifying the Company as the accounting acquiror, the companies considered the structure of the transaction and other actions contemplated by the Three-Parties Consistent Action Agreement, relative outstanding share ownership and market values, the composition of the combined company's board of directors, the relative size of Shuya, and the designation of certain senior management positions of the combined company.
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company recorded the acquisition based on the fair value of the consideration transferred and then allocated the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the Acquisition Date. The excess of the value of consideration transferred over the aggregate fair value of those net assets was recorded as goodwill. Any identified definite lived intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives and any identified intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually. All intangible assets and goodwill will be tested for impairment when certain indicators are present. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenues and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The valuation of purchase considerations was based on preliminary estimates that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
As the Consistent Action Agreement did not quantify any considerations to gain the control, the deemed consideration paid is the fair value of 51% non-controlling interest as of January 1, 2023. The following table summarizes the fair value of the consideration paid and the fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed on January 1, 2023, the acquisition date.

Under ASC-805-10-50-2, initial consolidation of an investee previously reported using fair value or the equity method should be accounted for prospectively as of the date the entity obtained a controlling financial interest. Therefore, the Company should provide pro forma information as if the consolidation had occurred as of the beginning of each of the current and prior comparative reporting period per
Under ASC-805-10-50-2, initial consolidation of an investee previously reported using fair value or the equity method should be accounted for prospectively as of the date the entity obtained a controlling financial interest. Therefore, the Company should provide pro forma information as if the consolidation had occurred as of the beginning of each of the current and prior comparative reporting period per
On January 1, 2024, and effective on the same date, JHJ, SSET and Xiangyueheng entered into the Agreement on the Termination of the Concerted Action Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties released each other from any and all obligations under the CAA. Due to the Termination Agreement, the Company now holds less than 50% of the voting rights in Shuya. The Company analyzed whether Shuya should be consolidated under ASC 810 and determined Shuya is no longer required to be consolidated on January 1, 2024 after the execution of the Termination Agreement. Accordingly, the Company will not consolidate Shuya into its consolidated financial statements on or after January 1, 2024.
Series E Valuation
Additionally, the inputs for the valuation of the Series E preferred shares were also based on estimates and comparable data selected by the Company and fair value measurements, furthermore, the purchase price allocation was based on estimates of fair market values.
Future Financing
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares to continue to fund our business operations. Issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.

WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH NASDAQ'S LISTING REQUIREMENTS; IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO REGAIN COMPLIANCE WITH THOSE REQUIREMENTS WITHIN THE TIME PERIODS PERMITTED BY NASDAQ, OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE DELISTED, WHICH WOULD LIKELY IMPAIR OUR ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL AND COULD CONSTITUTE AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER OUR OUTSTANDING PROMISSORY NOTES.
On November 5, 2024, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement"). The Nasdaq listing rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and, based upon the closing bid price of the Company's common stock for the prior 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer met that requirement. The Nasdaq rules initially provided the Company a compliance period of 180 calendar days from the date of the notice (or until May 5, 2025) in which to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On May 7, 2025, Nasdaq granted the Company an additional 180-day extension (or until November 3, 2025) to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On October 20, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that the Company had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the matter was closed.
On January 8, 2025, the Company received a written notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq's annual shareholder meeting requirement as set forth in Listing Rules 5620(a) and 5810(c)(2)(G) (the "Annual Shareholder Meeting Requirement"). The Nasdaq listing rules require the Company to have an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of the Company's fiscal year end, and the Company has not had an annual meeting within twelve months of the Company's 2023 fiscal year end as required. The Nasdaq rules provided the Company 45 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Annual Shareholder Meeting Requirement. The Company submitted such plan as required, and on February 27, 2025, Nasdaq provided the Company an extension of until June 3, 2025, to regain compliance with the Annual Shareholder Meeting Requirement. On April 30, 2025, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders, and the Company regained compliance with the Annual Shareholder Meeting Requirement.
On April 17, 2026, the Company received a written notice Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the Company had not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. That rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60 calendar days from receipt of the notice to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, then Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-K, or until October 12, 2026, to regain compliance.
On May 26, 2026, the Company received a written notice Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the Company had not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026. That rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60 calendar days from receipt of the notice to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, then Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-Q, or until November 16, 2026, to regain compliance.
The Company intends to submit a plan to Nasdaq regarding regaining compliance with Nasdaq's rules. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company's plan to regain compliance or that the Company will be able to regain compliance within any extension period granted by Nasdaq. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company's plan, then the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
If the Company's common stock ultimately were to be delisted for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Company's common stock; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the Company's common stock, which could negatively impact the Company's ability to raise equity financing; (iii) limiting the Company's ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby preventing the Company from accessing the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Company's ability to provide equity incentives to its employees. Additionally, delisting of the Company's common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market could constitute an event of default under its outstanding convertible promissory notes, resulting in those notes becoming immediately due and payable, and resulting in default penalties being applied to those notes.
