Important Notice: Deficient Report
The financial statements that form part of the present Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period covering the second quarter of 2025 (the “2025 10-Q”) have not been reviewed by a registered public accounting firm, this filing must therefore be considered as substantially deficient.
On May 3, 2024, the Company was made aware that its long standing auditors, BF Borgers CPA PC, had been denied the privilege of appearing or practicing before the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an accountant. In view of the nature of the actions taken by the SEC in relation to the Company’s former auditor, the SEC required the Company to have its new auditors review 2 years of its quarterly financial statements along with the reaudit of 2 years of annual financial statements. This has resulted in a deficiency in the Company’s filings entirely due to circumstances beyond the control of the Company. The Company appointed a new registered public accounting firm: Fruci & Associates II PLLC, Certified Public Accountants based in Spokane, Washington (“Fruci & Associates”) to replace BF Borgers.
Due to a vastly increased workload, however, Fruci & Associates were unable to bring the Company’s reporting up to date during 2025. However, on April 28, 2025, the Company refiled its 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A with the financial statements fully audited by Fruci & Associates and on June 30, 2025, the Company filed its quarterly report reviewed by its auditors on Form 10-Q/A for the period ending March 30, 2024 (the “Compliant Reporting”). The Compliant Reporting is fully incorporated into the present 2025 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2025, however, neither the 2024 annual report on Form 10-K nor any of the quarterly reports on form 10-Q for the periods ending June 30, 2024, November 30, 2024 and March 31, 2025 have been reviewed or audited by the Company’s auditors. The present deficiency is entirely due to circumstances beyond the control of the Company.
The Company has no reason to believe that this present Quarterly Report filed on Form 10-Q (the “Report”), that includes modifications the reporting contained in the Compliant Reporting is in any way inaccurate.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2025
not reviewed
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Organization and Description of Business
NEXT-ChemX Corporation, formerly known as AllyMe Group Inc. (“Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 13, 2014, and has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end. The Company trades on the OTC market (Pink Sheet) under the symbol “CHMX”. On December 23, 2021, the Company filed SEC Form 8-A12G becoming a mandatory filer and has since complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Commission as a reporting issuer.
Since April 2021, following a complete change of the Company’s shareholders, management, assets and strategy, the business of the Company is the commercialization of a novel innovative Ion-Targeting Continuous-Flow Direct Extraction Technology (“iTDE Technology”) as further described in Note 5 below. The iTDE Technology is embodied in certain patents and patent applications as well as proprietary knowledge.
The primary focus of the Company is the commercial launch of its iTDE Technology in a scalable system, deployable remotely to customer locations, which will enable the commercial extraction of lithium from natural brines and geothermal sources as well as liquors from leached mined ore solutions. In addition, during the first quarter, management began to focus on developing two to three other targeted systems for the mining of metals as well as water treatment systems and recycling.
Potential future commercial applications for the iTDE Technology include:
● | Extracting Fatty Acids from Vegetable Oils for More Economical Refining; | |
● | Extracting of Radioactive Ions from Nuclear Plant Stored Water; | |
● | Extracting of Metal Ions from Mine Leach Solutions, Effluent, or Tailings; and | |
● | Desalination of Sea Water, by Extracting Ions for Water Purification |
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company has continued to manage the construction of the first of two pilot plant systems that will form the basis of its ongoing commercialization efforts by demonstrating the scalability of the system for commercial purposes, by providing actual commercial data to define typical running costs, and by generating commercial interest by processing samples supplied by potential customers to demonstrate the iTDE technology’s capability commercially. The two planned systems include (i) a smaller flexible system utilizing the iTDE Technology that will enable the processing of solutions containing lithium to demonstrate the commercial viability of the system; and (ii) a larger system that will handle the processing of industrial quantities of brines, better demonstrating the scalability and performance of the system when used commercially to extract lithium. This work is being carried out in India under contract.
The smaller system was designed to facilitate work on refinement of the basic iTDE system by enabling changes to sensor types and positions as well as adaptations to its other relevant systems. It is expected this will contribute to improvements in efficiency and assist in the modelling of the process for commercial implementation, enabling changes that will reduce the cost and improve the economics of the process. The inherent flexibility of the design also allows the Company to conduct its research into the extraction of other elements thereby exploring the commercial viability of the extraction of other elements.
The first system is expected to be completed during third quarter of 2025.
The Company anticipates first running extraction tests on brine solutions mixed with controlled defined quantities of elements that approximate the naturally occurring brines of potential customers. The Company has already received brine samples from Clontarf Energy plc, a UK AIM listed company with whom the Company concluded an agreement to iTDE Technology in Bolivia through a jointly established commercial venture. The composition of these brines will be the basis for modeling these controlled samples. This initial calibration of the system will be done by making synthetic brines based upon analytical data received from the Bolivian State Lithium Company and should provide a basis for better testing with actual brines. We expect large container sized sample of actual brines to arrive in India around October of 2024 for testing in our pilot plant system.
F-6 |
We have also engaged with another Indian engineering company to test the effectiveness of their nano-filtration system to use in front of our pilot plant system to remove significant amounts of divalent ions, such as magnesium and calcium, without the use of any chemicals. This may make our complete system more economical in challenging remote areas such as our project with Clontarf in Bolivia.
Due to a lack of funding, the Company has scaled back its intellectual property protection strategy in the near term.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim financial statements should be viewed in conjunction with the Compliant Reporting, including the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on April 28, 2025 and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the period ending March 30, 2024 filed on June 30, 2025. This interim financial statement has not been reviewed by the Company’s auditors.
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Evaluation of Long-Lived Intangible Assets
The Company acquired its principal intellectual property asset in the second quarter of 2021. The value of the asset was initially derived from the underlying arms’ length transaction in which the company owning the technology transferred the technology to the Company in exchange for a specific number of shares of Common Stock of the Company. The value of the shares was itself derived from the fact that such shares were bought and sold in an arms’ length transaction that occurred simultaneously. The technology composed initially of patents and patent applications as well as certain knowhow was initially amortized by the Company. However, during fiscal year 2021, due to the nature of the technology behind the asset and its application across multiple disciplines and businesses, Management considered the asset to be greater than the individual patents and possible patent applications. Certain technological ideas give rise to various applications (‘stem technologies’). For this reason, on September 30, 2021, the asset as a stem technology was reclassified as an intangible asset of indefinite life. The value taken was that of its book value at the third quarter end 2021 following initial amortization. Intangible assets of indefinite life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
The Company is required to evaluate periodically the useful life of its assets and to adjust the value of the asset, depreciating it over its useful life. This revaluation has resulted in the decision to amortize the technology asset as a finite indefinite asset taking as its useful life the protection period of the patents filed to protect the said asset.
The
indefinite intangible asset was reevaluated and is now considered to have an estimated useful life equivalent to the period of its
underlining patent protection, appropriate amortization being charged to the value of the asset accordingly. This has resulted in an
adjustment of $
Revenue Recognition
The Company utilizes a five-step process when assessing the recognition of revenue from contractual obligations.
(i) | Identification of the type and binding nature of the contract as well as an identification and assessment of the goods and services undertaken with specific reference to the intangible nature of the intellectual property rights sold; | |
(ii) | Identification of specific performance obligations within the overall contract that are distinct. | |
(iii) | Determination of the specific price or value of the specific performance obligation. | |
(iv) | Allocation of the transaction price or value of a specific performance obligation; and | |
(v) | Determination of the moment the obligation undertaken is delivered or performance is satisfied. |
F-8 |
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock consist of the common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt, preferred stock and warrants. The Company uses the if-converted method to calculate the dilutive preferred stock and treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive shares issuable upon exercise of warrants.
For the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2025, and June 30, 2024, there were potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments issued or outstanding and any such shares would have been excluded from the computation because they would have been anti-dilutive as the Company incurred losses in these periods. Notwithstanding this, however, it should be noted that as on June 30, 2025, the Company had the following dilutive instruments outstanding convertible into shares of ordinary shares of common stock as follows:
a) | convertible
instruments with an outstanding debt of $ | |
b) | certain
employment and consulting agreements with a provision to convert remuneration and expense
owing to such employees at a conversion price of $ |
Investment Policy in Joint Ventures
It is the policy of the Company to recognize joint ventures only once sufficient consideration has been received for the venture to impact its operations. Neither the execution of an agreement requiring the formation of a joint venture nor the creation of a shell intended to be the venture vehicle is considered sufficient. Once operations commence in a material manner, the Company will recognize the operation of a joint venture in its financial statements.
PP&E depreciation policy of fixed tangible assets
The
depreciation policy of the Company’s long term fixed tangible assets is decided dependent on the useful life a particular
asset is expected to have. The Company currently operates with few assets having no real estate and with very little
operational equipment. The current book value of all fixed tangible assets owned by the Company is $
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability to the Company. Where it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequence of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financials properly reflect the change.
The recent release of FASB Accounting Standards Update 2025-04 in May 2025 relates to Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and sets out certain ‘Clarifications to Share-Based Consideration Payable to a Customer’. While the Company currently has obligations to make and receive payments in stock under an agreement that governs the commercialization of the Company’s technology in Bolivia the Company has yet to fully analyze the effect of the new pronouncement on its situation. The date for the implementation of this release in the Company’s annual reporting period is required only after December 15, 2026, however the Company anticipates introducing any required measures earlier commencing with its 2025 year-end reporting.
The Company has noted the issuance by FASB of ASU 2023-07 on November 27, 2023 that introduces amendments to “improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses” to enable “investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows”. At present, the Company has no marketable product lines, it is currently developing the technology that will enable the introduction of one or more such lines, however, it is too early to predict in what final product form, and more importantly how many different variations of this, the iTDE Technology will eventually be marketed. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, its CEO Mr. Benton Wilcoxon, who is responsible for the allocation of the Company’s resources acts on the principle that the business cannot as yet be considered to operate with different segments of activity nor is investment into development work divided into different segments, its operating capital and investment being dedicated only to one end, that of completion of the iTDE Technology and its incorporation into one or more final marketable product segments. For this reason, the Company does not feel ASU 2023-07 is currently applicable.
Noting also that the Company does not currently offer any profits interests or similar awards, the Company currently does not have any recent accounting pronouncements that they are studying and feel may be applicable.

NOTE 4 – PREPAID EXPENSE AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS
Prepaid
expenses and other current assets amounted to $
The
bulk of the prepaid expenses and other current assets comprises payment of $
ETD Co was previously owned and managed by a former officer of the Company and one of its other senior employees and used by them for managing technologies not related to the business of the Company. In 2023, ETD Co had sought to invest in the Company by purchasing its convertible instruments and then its equity, however, this investment was unsuccessful. On April 1, 2024, 100% of the ownership of ETD Co was sold by its shareholders to a third party and since that date neither related party had any further involvement of any kind in its ownership or business, in particular neither related party had any involvement in the proposal, negotiation or operation loan agreement.
In
addition, certain important payments were made on account to two attorney trust accounts, that of Company’s intellectual property
lawyers and to an attorney engaged to manage litigation issues for the Company as well as involvement in certain financing negotiations
and managing particular compliance issues. No interest is payable on these amounts. As of June 30, 2025, these payments amounted to aggregate $

NOTE 5 – RESTATEMENT OF THE COMPANY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ASSET
The Company’s principal asset is its iTDE Technology. This technology is now classified as a finite intangible asset and is amortized over the life of the technology’s underlying patents.
Previously, from September 2021, the Company had classified its iTDE Technology as an indefinite intangible asset and therefore the asset was not amortized, however, during fiscal 2023, the Company reassessed its iTDE Technology, concluding that such technology was a finite, rather than infinite, intangible asset. As a result, the Company began to restate the value of the technology on its books by applying retroactive amortization to the value of the asset. The audited annual report of the Company for 2023 filed with the SEC on form 10-K/A on April 28, 2025, records the results of the reevaluation and this Report continues the accounting treatment of the asset as set forth in the 2023 annual financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The Company was organized on August 13, 2014, as a Nevada corporation under Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Company’s registered address is 3773 Howard Hughes Pkwy STE 500S, Las Vegas, NV, 89169, USA, and its principal office is located at 1980 Festival Plaza Drive, Summerlin South, 300, Las Vegas, NV 89135.
The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act which became law in April 2012. The definition of an “emerging growth company” is a company with an initial public offering of common equity securities which occurred after December 8, 2011, and has less than $1 billion of total annual gross revenues during last completed fiscal year.
Overview of the Business
Since April 27, 2021, the Company has changed its business entirely with the acquisition of intellectual property assets related to a novel membrane-based ion extraction process (“iTDE Technology”), which is able to extract ions exiting in low concentrations from liquid solutions. The iTDE Technology is now being used in laboratory pilot testing to enable the Company to produce its first commercial prototypes using the novel the Extraction method. The iTDE Technology allows for the removal of ions from solution: without concentration by evaporation (significantly preserving the water resources); without pressure or additional heating (reducing energy costs); and targets the specific ions to be extracted (reducing the need for further operations and increasing the potential for the sale of other ions present in the solution). Because of the reduced interference with the environment, the lower energy costs, and the lack of a need for large evaporation ponds, management considers the iTDE Technology to be more environmentally friendly and sustainable when compared to alternatives.
The iTDE Technology has been shown effective when extracting lithium from brine solutions or mine leach solutions, and to have significant potential in the following applications: extracting fatty acids from vegetable oils as a superior refining process; extracting glycerides from biodiesel as a superior purification process; extracting radioactive ions from nuclear waste waters; extracting specific metal ions from mine leach solutions and waste effluents; and to remove salts from seawater for desalination, among other things.
Currently, the primary focus of the business is on completion of the first of two pilot plants embodying the iTDE Technology system that will enable the demonstration of the extraction system for the extraction of lithium, calcium, magnesium, boron, and certain other elements. The first system will provide greater flexibility to optimize and extend the reach of the process, allowing for replacement of sensor systems and variation of process parameters. It is anticipated that this pilot plant will not only demonstrate the system and its ability to target lithium using naturally occurring brines and liquors (solutions of crushed ores) but also provide a platform to optimize the extraction process and extend the extraction to other elements. The first pilot plant will enable the Company to establish the percentage level of extraction including the purity of the extracted elements and the chemical form of the extracted elements. This will give a clear indication of the economics of the process.
A second pilot plant system is planned using experience gained from the first pilot plant to improve the current design enabling higher throughputs and a better processing ability for marketing purposes.
The Company believes it has the ability of the system to scale up due to its modular configuration: adding more units increases the extraction potential. It is anticipated following successful completion and trial and calibration of the iTDE System pilot plant, the Company will launch the commercial testing and deployment of its system that will enable the commercial deployment of the system.
It is important for the commercialization process that the Company have access to material to process (“feedstock”) since the process will usually be particularly adapted to suit a particular feedstock. On March 27, 2023, the Company signed a Partnership Agreement with the UK AIM listed company Clontarf Energy plc (“Clontarf”) in accordance with which the partners would pursue together the possibility of using the Company’s iTDE Technology to extract lithium and other materials from feed-stock brines in Bolivia. On behalf of the partners, Clontarf submitted a bid to the “Pública Nacional Estratégica Yacimientos de Litio Bolivianos” (the ‘National Strategic Public Company of Bolivian Lithium Deposits’ or “YLB”) in the Call for Bids (“convocatoria”) for the seven priority salares (salt pans) in Southern Bolivia. Since fiscal 2023, the Clontarf bid has made progress through the bidding process which consists of five phases. Given the extended time and uncertainty of winning the convocatoria, the Company has begun to explore alternative sources of feed-stock with commercial potential in particular in the US where environmental considerations and clean-up are paramount and where the Company’s technology may open access to domestic sources of strategic materials.

The Company has been focusing on additional and complementary technologies that will enhance its system either by rendering it more efficient or by reducing costs. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party US engineering and technology development company (“ETD Co”) that may provide access to additional technologies focusing initially on membrane advances before turning to milling technology. If successful, the Company may use all or part of a certain loan to acquire such technology. The funds transferred for this purpose are secured as a loan earning 8% interest and are due to be repaid by May 30, 2026, if no specific technology is acquired by the Company prior to repayment.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the principal focus of the Company remained the finalization of the pilot plant engineering and construction in India together with the work in developing specific membranes for use with the Company’s technology, work already delayed by lack of funds. The Company also continued to focus on seeking finance for its future and dealing with certain litigation issues that were preventing the ability of the Company to raise funding by issuing equity. During this period, the Company incurred operating expenses of 455,639, as compared to $383,379 incurred for the same 3-month period ending June 30, 2024. This represented an increase of $72,260 or 19% in expenses.
Following efforts during fiscal 2024 to reduce expenses, by the first quarter of 2025 the Company’s expenses had reached their lowest sustainable level, at a cost to the pace of development of the technology. This was driven primarily by shift in operations to India combined with a lowering of the number of employees and the cancellation of the carryforward of leave benefit. During fiscal 2025 the Company continued to operate at low levels, however, two important increases fueled the general increase in quarterly expenses for the second quarter of 2025. First, interest expense of $70,319 due to the rescheduling of the Company’s debt and the increase in interest expense due on the growing employee and consultant deferred remuneration. This was an increase of $28,249 over the same period in 2024. Second, the payment of $59,000 in general legal fees associated with advice regarding potential litigation and reviews of potential financing arrangements. This represented an increase of $54,000 over the same period in 2024. Intellectual property expenses declined by $11,186 during the same period.
Another significant decline in expenses was the reduction of $84,023 in payments to Contractors and consultants with overall payments reducing from $144,325 in the second quarter of 2024 to $60,302 during the same 3-month period of 2025. This was the result of no payment made to Monarch Innovation ($78,525 in Q2 2024).
The following table summarizes the results of our operations during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively:

The net loss incurred during the six month period ending June 30, 2025, of $921,565 was broadly the same as that incurred during the same period of 2024: $939,787. One senior employee resigned in early 2024 to be rehired part time as a part time consultant, reducing expense by $12,000 per the quarter, however, this reduction was offset by a senior Director and Officer who transferred from working as a consultant to becoming an employee necessitating the payment of additional taxes of $13,018. The removal of the carry forward of leave benefit for employees and full-time consultants saved $41,359.
There was an overall decline during the period in intellectual property expense offset by an increase in other legal expense with an net increase of $36,212 in overall legal expense, however, overall payments to consultants and contractors declined by $96,826 when comparing the first six months of 2024 with the same period in 2025. Interest expense on Company debt increased from $78,897 to $134,283 between the two 6-month periods ending June 30due to the extension of existing loans to shareholders and an increase in servicing debt to employees and consultants. Travel expenses also increased with senior management travelling to India and the middle east as well as internally in the US and this necessitated an increase in insurance expense of $10,410 with the need to insure a senior Officer for annual travel.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2025, we had total current assets of $698,055 and an accumulated deficit of $9,248,001.
Our operating activities used $535,506 in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2025, while our operations used $861,765 cash in the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the period, the Company has focused attention on the work necessary to complete the pilot plants. Strategically it is considered necessary to complete the pilot plants to enable the Company to move to the next stage of its marketing plan: to demonstrate the system and its extraction economics to potential users. The Company currently has several companies interested in evaluating the system using their brines and these tests will consume a considerable amount of time once the pilot plants are ready to process. Management considers it preferable to focus on this work, and this has led to an overall reduction in expenses prior to reengaging in other activities.
Our cash requirements continue to be primarily for the finalization of the iTDE System pilot plant. While the Company anticipates opening corporate offices in the US in the future as well as manufacturing facilities, at present the focus is on the shift of development and engineering work to India to accelerate the ability to carry out Pilot Plant trials with customer brines and liquors.
Historically we have depended on investment from our principal shareholders and their affiliated companies to provide us with working capital as required as well as the forbearance of our employees and consultants to forgo all or part of their contracted salaries. There is no guarantee that such funding or other sources of funding will be available when required and there can be no assurance that our stockholders and employees, or any of them, will continue making loans or advances to us in the future.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.
Seasonality
Our operating results are not affected by seasonality.
Inflation
The Company has in the past used funding from debt convertible equity as its primary source of funding. In the event of a high inflationary environment, this method of funding may become more expensive and may be less readily available. Our core business and operating results are not affected in any material way by inflation.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Disclosure of Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s chief executive officer (who is the Company’s principal executive officer) and the Company’s President (who is the Company’s chief operating officer) as well as its Financial Officer (the Company’s principal financial officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. At present one person combines the roles of President and Chief Financial Officer. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The ineffectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures was due to material weaknesses identified in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, described below.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. To evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. This assessment included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation.
Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management concluded its internal control over financial reporting, while significantly improved, was still not effective as of June 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Principal financial controls are managed by the Company’s controller who maintains the accounts under the supervision of the Chief Financial Officer. At present the Company still relies on advances by officers and employees using their own means of payment to fund the Company, these are then repaid (or accumulated as debt) against an accounting of such expenses. The Company plans to issue its own means of payment in the future that would improve efficiency and transparency. While we believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any Company have been detected, the Company continues to improve its control environment with a view to establishing an effective control environment and to satisfying the Company auditors of the same.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
On April 26, 2024, Judge Elizabeth Leonard of the Midland County District Court in Midland, Texas entered a Third Turnover Order (the “Turnover Order”) requiring the Company to turn over 15,866,096 of its common shares, registered to a corporation with the same name as the Company (NEXT-ChemX Corporation) but registered in a different jurisdiction, to NEXT-ChemX Corporation, a Texas corporation, Glenn A. Little, as Director and Receiver. Sparkie Properties L.L.C. (“Sparkie”) that is managed by Glenn Little who was also appointed receiver of, a privately held Texas corporation.
This decree was issued even though neither the privately held NEXT-ChemX Corporation, chartered in Texas, nor the Company itself was ever involved in the underlying lawsuit giving rise to said decree. This order arose from litigation in Sparkie Properties L.L.C. v. NextMetals Limited and Benton Wilcoxon, CV 58242, In the District Court of Midland County, Texas, 238th Judicial District. The shares of the Company owned by NEXT-ChemX Corporation, the privately held Texas corporation, were alleged to belong to NextMetals Limited, a defendant in the litigation, rather than the aforementioned closely held Texas private company.
In fact, NextMetals Limited, a Gibraltar corporation defendant in the litigation does own shares in the closely held Texas private company, NEXT-ChemX Corporation, however the order has been issued to seize not the shares in the private Texas company but rather the private Texas company’s assets, the shares in the Company. The similarity of names between the Company and the private Texas corporation came about in 2021 when the Company adopted the changed its business and adopted the name of its principal shareholder that has contributed the technology currently exploited by the Company in exchange for a controlling share. These facts were ignored by the Court; moreover, when the private Texas Company whose assets were under threat approached the Court to be heard, the Judge refused allow it a hearing and proceeded with the judgement effectively depriving the private Texas company of its asset.
The Turnover Order is not a final order as it is currently on appeal with the Texas Court of Appeals for the 11th District in Eastland, Texas.
When the Company received notice from its transfer agent, Empire Stock Transfer Inc. (“Empire”) of Henderson, Nevada that, irrespective of the ongoing appeal of the Turnover Order and the fact that the shares covered by the Turnover Order were not the property of Sparkie Properties, L.L.C., Empire nevertheless advised the Company that it intended to issue the shares covered by the Turnover Order. The Company immediately terminated Empire as its transfer agent. This was done via an email and letter delivered on May 23, 2024, in which Empire acknowledged the receipt.
Although Empire no longer represented NEXT-ChemX Corporation, the Nevada public company, Empire promptly cancelled the shares owned by NEXT-ChemX Corporation, the closely held private corporation and issued 15,866,096 common shares in the public company divided into two certificates to NEXT-ChemX Corporation, a Texas corporation, Glenn A. Little, as Director and Receiver.
The Company and its attorneys believe the Turnover Order is illegal for reasons stated in a brief timely filed by attorneys for Benton Wilcoxon and NextMetals Ltd with the Texas Court of Appeals.
