Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

Note 1 – Nature of Operations and Going Concern

General Enterprise Ventures, Inc., (the “Company” or “GEVI”), was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 14, 1990.

Business

We are a fully integrated technology company structured to provide mergers and acquisitions of new and available technology. Through our services, we incubate first-to-market products and help existing companies accelerate their product development within all regulatory requirements.

Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared (i) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and (ii) assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant income to date. The Company is subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with a business with no substantive revenue, as well as limitations on its operating capital resources. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. In light of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise capital and generate revenue and profits in the future.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries necessary for a fair statement of the periods presented for: (a) the financial position; (b) the result of operations; and (c) cash flows, have been made in order to make the unaudited interim financial statements presented not misleading. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operations for a full year. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of General Enterprise Ventures, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

7

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents. The Company had $86,144 and $55,434 cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Inventory

Inventories consist of raw materials which are stated at lower cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on the weighted average method. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company held inventories of $103,736 and $114,645, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded cost of goods sold of $18,747 and $0 associated with the cost of inventories sold, respectively. The Company did not write-off any inventories as unsalable during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. Currently our assets consist solely of furniture and equipment which we amortize over a useful life of 5 years.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in income. 

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted future cash flows to the recorded value of the asset. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires the Company to use observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when determining fair value. The three tiers are defined as follows:

● Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

● Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and

● Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, prepaid expenses, inventory, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to related party, are carried at amortized cost. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

8

Related Parties

The Company follows ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” 10).

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common 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 earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

	June 30,		June 30,
	2023		2022
Convertible notes		300,000		105,556

Revenue

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Our revenues currently consist of products used for lumber products for fire prevention. Revenue is recognized at a point in time that is which the risks and rewards of ownership of the products transfer from the Company to the customer.

Note 2 – Discontinued Operations

Crypto mining

On April 1, 2022, the Company implemented a plan to divest its crypto mining operations to focus its resources on the MFB acquisition (see Note 4). The Company recognized a loss of $2,030 from the disposition of its crypto mining operations, which consisted of the relinquishment of the digital currency assets in exchange for settlement of the related party note payable associated with the acquisition of the equipment.

The following is a summary of discontinued operations for the period ended April 1, 2022:

	April 1,
	2022
Revenue	$	46,976
Cost of revenue		27,835
Gross Profit		19,141
Operating expenses:
Impairment loss		6,125
Total operating expenses		6,125
Income from discontinued operations	$	13,016

Note 3 – Equipment, net

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, equipment consisted of the following:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2023			2022
Cost:
Furniture and equipment	$	5,350		$	5,350
Less: accumulated depreciation		(1,334	)		(803	)
Property and equipment, net	$	4,016		$	4,547

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a depreciation of $531.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a depreciation of $15,059 for digital currency equipment, which is included within the Company’s income from discontinued operations.

Note 4 – Acquisition

On April 13, 2022, the Company acquired MFB and all associated IP, in exchange for 1,000,000 Preferred C Shares and a 10% royalty on the gross sales before taxes of products sold under the MFB family of products. MFB has 19 patents centered around its CitroTech MFB 31 Technology for the prevention and spread of wildfires.  Its core products can be used for lumber treatments for fire prevention.  It has been widely tested and is currently in testing at 3 major us government agencies. When CitroTech Science is sprayed and applied it takes flammable fuels like dry native vegetation and wood and makes them noncombustible.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for MFB and the amounts of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date of April 13, 2022:

Consideration:
Convertible Preferred C stock	$	4,200,000
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Intangible assets	$	4,195,353
Operating lease right-of-use assets		81,967
Operating lease liabilities		(77,320	)

Note 5 – Intangible Assets

The Company has capitalized the costs associated with acquiring the intellectual property of MFB at a value of $4,195,353 as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively (see Note 4).

The amount capitalized consisted of a portion of the fair value of 1,000,000 shares of Convertible Preferred C stock of $4,200,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, no additional costs met the criteria for capitalization as an intangible asset.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared (i) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and (ii) assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant income to date. The Company is subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with a business with no substantive revenue, as well as limitations on its operating capital resources. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. In light of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise capital and generate revenue and profits in the future.

These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms as a result of the following material weaknesses: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee, (2) lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (3) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (4) management is dominated by one individual without adequate compensating controls.

A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We expect to be materially dependent upon a third party to provide us with accounting consulting services for the foreseeable future. Until such time as we have a chief financial officer with the requisite expertise in U.S. GAAP, there are no assurances that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will not result in errors in our financial statements which could lead to a restatement of those financial statements.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the period ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal proceedings relating to claims arising out of our operations. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
