NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2021

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2021, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other period. The December 31, 2020 balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of that date.  Accordingly, the financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2021.

 

2. GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $729,665 and an accumulated deficit of $5,564,468 at March 31, 2021, and a record of continuing losses. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company’s operations to date have been limited to conducting various tests on its technologies and seeking financing. The Company will continue to develop and market its technologies, which the Company believes have great market potential. As such, the Company continues to pursue additional sources of financing. Currently the company is exploring various potential investment partners in Japan, as well as China. There can be no assurances that the Company can secure additional financing. . The present plans, the realization of which cannot be assured, to overcome these difficulties also include, but are not limited to, a continuing effort to investigate business acquisitions and joint ventures. 

 

The Company’s operations may be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, operations and cash flows. Possible areas that may be affected include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s ability to obtain funding and performing further research on certain projects.

5. INCOME TAXES

 

In accordance with the current tax laws in the U.S., the Company is subject to a corporate tax rate of 21% on its taxable income. No provision for taxes is made for U.S. income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2020 as it has no taxable income in the U.S. The Company can carry forward net operating losses (NOL's) to be applied against future profits for a period of twenty years in the U.S. and 80% of the NOL can be carried forward for three years in Japan.

 

The Company had NOL carryforwards of approximately $3.76 million in the U.S. at March 31, 2021. Approximately $3.48 million in the U.S. will expire in the years 2021 through 2037, and $0.28 million can be carried forward indefinitely.

 

Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences or benefits to future years of any temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and of net operating loss carryforwards. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets us dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the assessment, management has established a full valuation allowance against all of the deferred tax assets relating to the NOL’s for every period because it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

6. OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY (continued)

 

The Company's lease does not provide an implicit rate, and therefore the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate the Company would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of a lease. The Company used incremental borrowing rate of 5% for the calculation of operating leases liabilities.

 

The following table reconciles the undiscounted future minimum lease under the non-cancelable operating leases with terms of more than one year to the total lease liabilities recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021:

 

2021- six months	$7,500
Total undiscounted future minimum lease payments	7,500
Less: Difference between undiscounted lease payments and discounted lease liabilities	(108)
Total operating lease liabilities	7,392
Less current portion	(7,392)
Long-term lease liabilities	$-0-

 

Total rent expense under operating leases for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $3,750, as compared to $3,750 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by Amanasu Environmental Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively the “Company”, “we”, “our”, and “us”) from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s management.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof.  When used in the filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward-looking statements.  Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, including the risks contained in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), relating to the Company’s industry, the Company’s operations and results of operations, and any businesses that the Company may acquire.  Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

 

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements.  Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made.  These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our consolidated financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $729,665 and an accumulated deficit of $5,564,468 at March 31, 2021, and a record of continuing losses. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company's present plans, the realization of which cannot be assured, to overcome these difficulties include, but are not limited to, a continuing effort to investigate business acquisitions and joint ventures. The Company will also continue to investigate and develop technologies, which the Company believes have great market potential. As such, the Company may need to pursue additional sources of financing. There can be no assurances that the Company can secure additional financing.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

General

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is intended to assist the reader in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial position of the Company together with its subsidiary. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying financial notes, and with the Critical Accounting Policies noted below.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company has three main objectives. Firstly, the Company will continue in its goal to meet the capital objective of $30,000,000. Currently the company is exploring various potential investment partners in Japan, as well as China. The Company cannot predict whether it will be successful with its objective. Second the Company will continue to support Amanasu Maritek Corporation's efforts on entering into marine technologies. The Company will assist for another 2 years in the design, and approval process for the product from at least two regulatory bodies: the Japanese Government, and the IMO (International Marine Organization). This approval process requires capital for additional product testing, documentation, and documentation translations. The Company believes that Amanasu Maritek Corporation's most significant hurdle will be in capital raising. The Company has already initiated documentation and application processes, and is now looking for capital to fund the project. The Company cannot predict whether it will be successful with its capital raising efforts. Third, the Company is making plans to enter the reforestation industry in Japan, through Amanasu Maritek Corporation. The Company must first reach an agreement with the relevant government agencies in Japan. The Company intends to focus on the prefectures of Miyagi, Iwate and Niigata and begin operations within two years. The Company cannot predict whether it will be successful with its objective.

 

The Company’s operations may be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, operations and cash flows. Possible areas that may be affected include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s ability to obtain funding and performing further research on certain projects.

 

Results of Operations

 

There were no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased $758 (3.6%) to $20,294 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $21,052 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. These decreases are mostly attributed mostly to the lower travel expenses and professional fees.

 

As a result of the above, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $20,294 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to a loss from operations of $21,052 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, interest expense decreased $16 to $4,939 as compared to $4,955 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

As a result of the above, the Company incurred a net loss of $25,233 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $26,007 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Total current assets at March 31, 2021 were $1,161 as compared to $47 at December 31, 2020. This increase is the result of a slightly higher cash balance. Total current liabilities as of March 31, 2021 were $730,826 as compared to $708,890 at December 31, 2020.This increase is primarily due to increases in accrued expenses to related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

The Company's minimum cash requirements for the next twelve months are estimated to be $60,000, including rent, audit and professional fees. The Company does not have sufficient cash on hand to support its overhead for the next twelve months and there are no material commitments for capital at this time other than as described above. The Company will need to acquire debt or issue and sell shares to gain capital for operations or arrange for additional stockholder or related party loans.  There is no current commitment for either of these fund sources.

 

Our working capital deficit increased $20,822 to $729,665at March 31, 2021 as compared to $708,843 at December 31, 2020 primarily due to increases in accrued expenses to related parties, accounts payable abd accrued expenses to related parties.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had a net increase in cash of $1,114. The Company’s principal sources and uses of funds were as follows:

 

Cash used in operating activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company used $3,036 in cash for operations as compared to using $105 in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily as a result of the lower increase in accrued expenses to related parties.

 

Cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $4,150 as compared to using $30 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily as a result of the increase in amounts due to affiliate and loans from stockholders and officers.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANAGEMENTS

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period.

 

Our critical accounting policies are described in the Notes to the Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2021 (the “Annual Report”). There have been no changes in our critical accounting policies. Our significant accounting policies are described in our notes to the 2020 consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.

  

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

ITEM 4. MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Accounting Officer (“PAO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.  Management designed the disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our PEO and PAO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon that evaluation, the PEO and PAO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective for the reasons discussed below. In addition, management identified the following material weaknesses in its assessment of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021.

 

The Company did not effectively segregate certain accounting duties due to the small size of its accounting staff. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Notwithstanding the determination that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, as of March 31, 2021, and that there was a material weakness as identified in this Quarterly Report, we believe that our financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the years covered hereby in all material respects.

 

We plan on increasing the size of our accounting staff at the appropriate time for our business and its size to ameliorate our concern that we do not effectively segregate certain accounting duties, which we believe would resolve the material weakness in disclosure controls and procedures, but there can be no assurances as to the timing of any such action or that we will be able to do so.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
