**PART I**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS.**

**Company Overview**

Energy and Water Development Corp. (the "Company" or "EAWD") was originally incorporated as a Delaware corporation named Wealthhound.com, Inc. in 2000 and was converted to a Florida corporation under the name Eagle International Holdings Group Inc. on December 14, 2007.

On March 10, 2008, the Company changed its name to Eurosport Active World Corporation and on March 17, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Inko Sport America, LLC ("ISA"), a privately-held Florida limited liability company wherein all of the certified owners of ISA exchanged their ownership interests in ISA for shares of the Company. In connection with the closing of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company adopted ISA's business plan and the Company's registered current directors were elected to their positions. This transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein ISA was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. ISA was administratively dissolved in September 2010.

In September 2019, the Company changed its name to Energy and Water Development Corp. to more accurately reflect the Company's purpose and business sector and the Company has registered its logo "EAWD" with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the European Union Intellectual Property Office and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to secure its corporate identity.

To ensure the Company is positioned to service its growing business in one of the EU's most environmentally progressive countries, the Company has a branch registered to conduct business in Germany and two wholly-owned German subsidiaries: Energy and Water Development Deutschland GmbH ("EAWD Deutschland") and EAWD Logistik GmbH ("EAWD Logistik").

**The Business**

We are an engineering services company formed as an outsourcing green tech platform, focused on sustainable water and energy solutions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· EAWD builds water and energy systems out of existing, proven technologies, utilizing our patent pending systems configuration and our technical know-how
to customize solutions to meet our clients' needs. To date, two water systems have been sold and deployed in Mexico and Germany.

· Using its patent pending design, EAWD is working to design, build, and operate Off-Grid EV Charging Stations in Germany.

· EAWD commercializes proven technologies for the sustainable generation of energy and water. The first unit has been built and tested in Germany and the Company is working to fulfill additional orders.

· EAWD is a United Nations "accredited vendor" and offers design, construction, maintenance and specialty consulting services to private companies, government entities and non-government organizations (NGOs) for the sustainable supply of energy and water.

In view of the increased world-wide demand for water and energy, our business goals are focused on self-sufficient energy supplied water generation and green energy production. To accomplish this, we set out to establish an outsourcing green tech platform to commercialize the Company's state-of-the-art technologies while providing engineering and technical consultation services to design the most sustainable technological solutions that can provide water and energy. We also intend to secure all required technical, maintenance, education, and training related to the identified technology solutions. To this end the Company has sought potential collaboration with green tech research and development centers in Europe and has established its operating subsidiaries in Hamburg Germany, where we have started to assemble our patent-pending innovative off-grid, self-sufficient energy supply atmosphere water generation ("AWG") systems (EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems). EAWD Deutschland and EAWD Logistik operate in Hamburg, Germany to meet the increasing demands of water and energy generation projects around the world as well as to operate the solar powered EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD's newest product, in Germany.

The green tech industry is constantly evolving due to ongoing and increasing water scarcity as well as increased energy needs in the world. Therefore, we believe that by designing sustainable and renewable solutions to these problems, EAWD will become an essential component of a rapidly growing industry with many new markets.

The green tech industry is complex because it still requires increased promotion and public education about its potential. Furthermore, regulations in each country are different and, in many cases, several segments are regulated by both national and local (state, provincial, municipal) governments. EAWD's approach seeks to assist businesses with the growth and development of their general operations by ensuring the efficient, profitable, and sustainable supply/generation of water and energy allowing our potential customers to focus on their business while adopting strategies of sustainability. Using our own EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, and other identified technology, products, and services licensed or purchased from third party sources, we are delivering and installing a product set that suits the green technology water and/or energy needs of our customers. By using the state-of-the art technological solutions and technologies identified, designed, and provided by EAWD and its collaborators, we believe that our potential clients will be free to focus on the performance of their operations as well as with the water and energy consumption or generation regulations within their industry. Our clients may be businesses seeking to upgrade their business processes, NGOs or governmental entities seeking to apply green technology solutions for the water and energy they supply to their constituencies.

We continue to be a development stage company. The Company presently assembles its EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems and EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations at its workshop in Germany and outsources most of its engineering and technical services as well as services relating to the promotion, selling, and distribution of its products. We presently have only nine employees: Ms. Velazquez, our Chief Executive Officer, Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors, and a significant stockholder, Mr. Hofmeier, our Chief Technology Officer, Chairman of the Board of Directors, and a significant stockholder, two engineers, two technicians, one accountant assistant, and two assemblers. Ms. Velazquez and Mr. Hofmeier are married.

We seek to focus on three main aspects of the water and energy business: (1) generation, (2) supply, and (3) maintenance. We seek to assist private companies, government entities and municipalities, and NGOs to build profitable and sustainable supplies/generation capabilities of water and energy as required by selling them the required technology or technical service to enhance their productivity/operability. With its outsourced technical arm and its commission-based global network of distributors, the Company expects to create sustainable added value to each project it takes on while generating revenue from the sale of own EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies; as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

**Our Vision**

The size of the global market for atmospheric water generators was estimated at USD 959.85 million in 2020, reached USD 1,074.01 million in 2021, and at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.75%, is expected to reach USD 2,515.19 million by 2027. (Source: Atmospheric Water Generator Market 2022 Report published by 360i Research)

The main market dynamics to consider are the growing numbers of AWGs across various end-use verticals and versus the high energy consumption, production cost, and high carbon footprint of such technology. Our research and development activities in AWG technology have led us to develop novel technologies that overcome these negative dynamics (such as our EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems).

The mission of EAWD is to provide sustainable water generation systems based on high efficiency, renewable sources and to provide off-grid self-sufficient energy supply solutions. Through a combination of the best design and configuration of state-of-the-art technology-assisted solutions, EAWD has created a completely self-sufficient off the grid energy generation and water production system, which can be simultaneously used to meet potable water requirements and the electrical energy needs of the industrial sector.

EAWD promotes and commercializes its green technology solutions via commission-based distributers and agents worldwide.

Through our BlueTech Alliance for Water Generation, established in December 2020, we have state-of-the-art technology partners, technology transfer agreements, and technology representation agreements in place relating to aspects of renewable energy and water supply. These unique key relationships offer important selling features and capabilities that differentiated EAWD from its competitors.

The Company plans to generate revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, the development, sale, and operation of the EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, sale of EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies; as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

**Our Products**

The technological solutions offered by our Company are the following:

<u>EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems</u>

Today, atmospheric water generators (AWGs) are standard equipment in many places; however, operating AWGs requires high amounts of energy that is often not available in the places where they are needed most, making the price for the generated water very high. Our innovative EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems are designed to have an internal power supply and ability to generate power. Our EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems produce sufficient quantities of potable water even in very dry and hot climate conditions and can be scaled to almost any size, community, and/or population. Presently, AWGs are largely used in Asian and African countries. The majority of manufacturers of AWGs, which rely on dehumidifying, are located in China. Almost every U.S. based AWG brand is also supplied by manufacturers in China.

By contrast, EAWD uses a proven German technology for condensate water from the air based on A/C technology. We believe that this method allows higher, more efficient, sustainable performance and a larger quantity of water generation because of its internal power supply and because it does not require high humidity to function. EAWD has licensed the rights to use this German AWG technology for ninety-nine years; however, thanks to our continued research and development efforts, the Company has designed a new, innovative and more efficient configuration that allows the substantial amount of energy required to operate the equipment to be supplied by the equipment itself. Our EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems line is different in size from the standard AWG line. Our EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems are energy self-sufficient and can condense large amounts of water out of the atmosphere and we believe they could be a solution in countries around the world that deal with issues of water scarcity.

Our EAWD Off-Grid AWG System with an internal power supply, works by first "inhaling" large volumes of air, then cooling the air down to the dew point, and finally collecting, filtering, and mineralizing the resulting condensed water. Through this process, pure drinking water is created that meets the quality standards of the World Health Organization (WHO). In regions with high temperatures and high humidity levels, a single system can generate more than 300,000 liters of water per day. Our EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems line starts at 2,640 gallons/day and can expand the water supply to one acre-feet/day, which we believe, in effect, is essentially the ability to produce an unlimited supply of water. As a certified vendor of the United Nations (UN) Global Marketplace, EAWD is introducing the EAWD Off-Grid AWG and Power Systems to the UN with the hopes of initially supplying the equipment to large cluster of agencies established in key locations for humanitarian response as well as refugee camps around the world in need of fresh water.

<u>EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems</u>

EAWD also seeks to respond to the growing need for drinking water by proposing a water purification solution utilizing solar, photovoltaic energy and, when applicable, a mini-windmill or other alternate source of renewable energy. The design of the system is ready to be built and delivered on demand.

Generally, drinking water is produced by passing sea water, lake water, river water, or stagnant water through several stages of purification and treatment until it is rendered drinkable in accordance with WHO standards. In the case of sea or stagnant water, we recommend a treatment via reverse osmosis membranes, which permits the retention of dissolved solids and results in obtaining water of drinking quality. If the water being treated emanates from lakes or rivers, we recommend treatment via an ultrafiltration membrane which functions by retaining suspended materials such as colloids, viruses and bacteria. The systems proposed by EAWD are containerized and contain all the equipment necessary to function autonomously, in part due to an automatic cleansing system that can be accessed remotely via satellite or the internet. Moreover, the machines use available renewable energy sources such as solar or wind to function.

<u>EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations</u>

The global electric vehicle market was valued at $162.34 billion in 2019, and is projected to reach $802.81 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 22.6%. Asia-Pacific was the highest revenue contributor, accounting for $84.84 billion in 2019, and is estimated to reach $357.81 billion by 2027, with a CAGR of 20.1%. North America is estimated to reach $194.20 billion by 2027, at a significant CAGR of 27.5%. Asia- Pacific and Europe collectively accounted for around 74.8% share in 2019, with the former constituting around 52.3% share. North America and Europe are expected to witness considerable CAGRs of 27.5% and 25.3%, respectively, during the forecast period. The cumulative share of these two segments was 40.1% in 2019, and is anticipated to reach 51.0% by 2027. (Source: Electric Vehicle Fluids Market Global Forecast to 2030 2021 Report from Markets and Markets.)

There is also an increasing consensus among European truck manufacturers and industry stakeholders that battery electric trucks (BETs) will play a dominant role in the decarbonization of the road freight sector. Most truck makers including Daimler, DAF, MAN, Scania and Volvo are now focusing on bringing BETs to the mass market for all vehicle segments, including long-haul, starting from 2024. For this, a network of public high-power and overnight charging points needs to be rolled out across Europe no later than 2024.

Based on our patent-pending Off-Grid Power System, EAWD has developed an innovative design and configuration of off-grid charging stations for BETs and electric vehicles in Germany. Our product is the first off-grid solution available in Europe for charging the BETs and electric passenger vehicles that are currently on the roads of Europe. EAWD plans to establish up to 1,700 charging stations throughout the USA, Mexico and Germany starting with 40 locations scheduled to be deployed in the fourth quarter of 2024.

<u>EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems</u>

Today, batteries for stationary storage have become a commodity, but in order to reduce the duration, complexity and cost of the installation, and to increase its capacity or relocate a system over time as well as to reduce its carbon footprint and environmental impact, we offer a complete Electrical Energy Storage System (EESS) and Energy Management System (EMS) for a wide range of customers and applications, including microgrids and EV fast charging stations. A highly capable energy management system which secures the efficient energy supply and storage of energy. Example: with elements such as software and Battery Management System (BMS) our systems can allow controlled and optimized battery cell management.

This product portfolio includes systems and complete services for solar power generation in the building envelope. A high-quality frameless glass solar panel with a super-matte surface, which secures a high-performance energy source.

In contrast to classic solar systems on the roof, EAWD combines the highest standards of aesthetics with high efficiency energy generation. With these solutions, EAWD supports its customers on their way to CO2 neutrality and the search for alternative renewable energies.

**Current Projects**

COVID-19 is an incomparable global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry and has caused the worst global economic contraction of the past 80 years (IMF) and the current war in Ukraine has also caused significant changes in consumer behavior and purchasing patterns, supply chain routing, the dynamics of current market forces, and government oversight and intervention. As a consequence of the foregoing, the following projects have been delayed; however the Company continues to make progress on their fulfillment:

*Germany*

 

The Company has leased 24,000 sq. mi of land in Kassel, Germany, where it is establishing the first large off-grid charging station location for electric trucks and passenger vehicles in Germany and Europe. With enough solar panels installed, each charging station is proposed to generate at least five MWh of solar energy per day and have a total capacity of at least one MWp. More than 2,400 MWh of energy storage capacity will be used in lithium battery systems (LFP), to ensure the continuous use and availability of energy. The system is low voltage AC coupled, which will ensure easy integration and expansion of the system in the future. The different elements of EAWD's system form a "micro grid" that is isolated and independent from the public power grid. It will have a capacity up to one MW of instant and continuous power. The charging points will be of 300 KW of power, with the capacity to charge two trucks simultaneously of 150 KW each, of course it will also be able to charge any other electric vehicle since it has the most common and standard connections/adapters in Europe.

The Company has completed the manufacture and installation of the first of forty planned solar powered EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations for electric long-haul trucks in Hamburg, Germany. Our charging stations are the first off-grid charging station available for these e-trucks in Europe and the Company plans to contract with companies that own these electric long-haul trucks to provide fleet charging as well as to install them in public places for per-use fees.

A solar powered EAWD Off-Grid AWG System has also been built in Hamburg, Germany and the Company plans to use it to showcase the system's ability to generate water for large projects throughout Germany where it is expected to produce up to two million gallons of water per day. The Company expects these systems to be operated throughout Germany, the United States of America, Mexico and Latin America.

*Mexico*

In 2020, our Mexican distributor placed a USD $550,000 initial order for a solar powered EAWD Off-Grid AWG System which was built in Germany and delivered to the customer in accordance with the purchase agreement. The Company is currently negotiating the purchase of three additional units by the same customer. The foregoing description of the purchase contract does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of such contract filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this report on Form 10-K.

 

*South Africa* 

 

On May 8, 2019, the Company signed a sales contract for the sale of a solar powered EAWD Off-Grid AWG System to a South African customer for a purchase price of $2,800,000. The build out of the equipment began in the fourth quarter of 2019, however because of delays due to COVID-19 and the global supply chain, the expected completion date has been pushed to late 2023. The foregoing description of the purchase contract does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of such contract filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this report on Form 10-K.

**Worldwide Business Relationships**

EAWD has commission-based independent agents and distributors strategically placed around the world in Germany, Mexico, United States, India, Canada, Australia, Colombia, Nepal, Kenya, Morocco, and Thailand to promote and sell EAWD's technology solutions.

We believe that this worldwide presence through our agents and distributors will provide us access to the most important markets in need of water, energy, and energy management solutions.

**Competition**

The market witnesses the presence of a diversified array of large and small scale manufacturers resulting in a significant level of competition in the global market. The competition in the market, both in the residential and commercial sectors, is projected to grow in intensity and is characterized by the demand for advanced and reliable atmospheric water generator units. Rising demand for industrial-size eAWGs, particularly in regions facing water shortages, is expected to create opportunities for new market players such as EAWD through 2027. Moreover, current research that is focused on increasing overall product efficiency in the industry is anticipated to open new avenues for market players over the coming years. According to an atmospheric water generator market size report [published by Grand View Research in 2020], some of the prominent players in the atmospheric water generator (AWG) market include: Akvo Atmospheric Water Systems Pvt. Ltd., Dew Point Manufacturing, Saisons Trade & Industry Private Limited, Water Maker India Pvt. Ltd., Planets Water, Water Technologies International, Inc. (WTII), Drinkable Air, Hendrx Water, Atlantis Solar, GENAQ Technologies S.L., Air2Water LLC, EcoloBlue, Inc and Watergen. On some level, each of these companies faces the two main industry challenges: carbon footprint and high-power requirement.

We compete by providing innovative systems assembled with state-of-the-art technologies and that contain self-sufficient power supplies, which make them more sustainable and profitable than the traditional solutions. We also set ourselves apart by providing services that are valued by our customers such as reliable sales relationships, product innovations, and responses to changing market/business needs.

**Government Regulation**

The manufacturing, processing, testing, packaging, labeling, and advertising of the technologies that we sell may be subject to regulation by one or more U.S. federal agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Environmental Protection Agency, and by the standards provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the World Health Organization for drinking water. Our operations may also be regulated by various agencies of states, localities, and foreign countries in which consumers reside. Currently, the technologies we intend to use in our solutions and our services are not subject to any governmental regulation in the United States although it is possible that the FDA may choose to regulate the quality of water produced from atmospheric water generating machines in the near future.

Since the Company may be subject to a wide range of regulation covering every aspect of our business as mentioned above, we cannot predict the nature of any future U.S. laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative orders, when and if promulgated, would have on the business in the future. Although the regulation of water is less restrictive than that of drugs and food additives, we cannot offer assurance that the current statutory scheme and regulations applicable to water will remain less restrictive. Further, we cannot assure you that, under existing laws and regulations, or if more stringent statutes are enacted, regulations are promulgated, or enforcement policies are adopted, we are or will be in compliance with these new statutes, regulations or enforcement policies without incurring material expenses or adjusting our business strategy. Any laws, regulations, enforcement policies, interpretations or applications applicable to our business could require the reformulation of products, all of which are supplied by third parties, to meet new standards or the recall or discontinuance of certain products not capable of reformulation, additional record keeping, expanded documentation of the properties of certain products, expanded or different labeling or scientific substantiation.

**Employees**

As of December 31, 2022, we had four full-time employees. Over time, we will be required to hire employees or continue to engage independent contractors in order to execute the projects necessary to grow and develop the business. These decisions will be made by our officers and directors, if and when appropriate. We work with 34 commission-based agents and distributors to promote and sell the Company's technology solutions. These agents and distributors are independent contractors with whom we have contractual relationships and are compensated solely based on commission.

**JOBS Act and the Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company**

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We elected to take advantage of all of these exemptions.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an "emerging growth company" can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards, and delay compliance with new or revised accounting standards until those standards are applicable to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will be an emerging growth company until the last day of the first fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our first common equity offering, although we will lose that status earlier if our annual revenues exceed $1.0 billion, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt in any three-year period or if we become a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We will qualify as a "large accelerated filer" as of the first day of the first fiscal year after we have (i) more than $700,000,000 in outstanding common equity held by our non-affiliates as of the last day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; (ii) been a public company for at least 12 months; and (iii) filed at least one annual report with the SEC. The value of our outstanding common equity will be measured each year on the last day of our second fiscal quarter.

**COVID-19 Pandemic Update and the War in Ukraine**

The outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) has caused significant disruptions to national and global economies and government activities. However, during this time, we have continued to conduct our operations to the fullest extent possible, while responding to the outbreak with actions that include:

● coordinating closely with our suppliers and customers;

● instituting various aspects of our business continuity programs; and

● planning for and working aggressively to mitigate disruptions that may occur.

COVID-19 is an incomparable global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry and has caused the worst global economic contraction of the past 80 years (IMF) and the current war in Ukraine has also caused significant changes in consumer behavior and purchasing patterns, supply chain routing, the dynamics of current market forces, and government oversight and intervention.. Disruptive activities could include the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes, restrictions on the export or shipment of our products, significant cutback of ocean container delivery from Germany, business closures in impacted areas, and restrictions on our employees' and consultants' ability to travel and to meet with customers. The extent to which COVID-19 or the war in Ukraine impacts our results will depend on future developments, which still uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the current conflict as well as virus variants and the actions to contain it or treat its impact, among others. COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine could also continue to result in social, economic and labor instability in the countries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate.

If workers at one or more of our offices or the offices of our suppliers or manufacturers become ill or are quarantined and in either or both events are therefore unable to work, our operations could be subject to disruption. Further, if our manufacturers become unable to obtain necessary raw materials or components, we may incur higher supply costs or our manufacturers may be required to reduce production levels, either of which may negatively affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In light of these challenges, the Company is focusing its efforts on supporting key areas of our business that will help us to stabilize in the new environment and strategize for what comes next. Those key areas are: crisis management and response, workforce, operation and supply chain, finance and liquidity, tax, trade and regulatory, as well as strategy and brand.

**ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.**

*<u>EAWD vs Packard and Co-Defendant Nick Norwood</u>* - Case number 18-031011 CA-01 Miami-Dade County Circuit Court. The Company is demanding proof of payment for shares issued in 2008.

*<u>EAWD vs Nerve Smart Systems ApS ("Nerve")</u>* Case number BS-15264/2022– The Court of Roskilde, Denmark. On April 2022, the Company filed a claim against Nerve demanding the return of amounts paid by the Company for a Battery Energy Storage System that was never delivered by Nerve to the Company, and therefore Nerve did not meet the requirements and specifications of the contract with the Company. The Company is confident there will be a positive outcome. This matter is not expected to be resolved prior to 2024 due to the long waiting times of the Danish court System.

*<u>EAWD vs NPP Niethammer, Posewang & Partner GmbH</u>* Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft *<u>("NPP")</u>* – Case number 322 O 159/22 – On November 28, 2022, by court settlement, the legal dispute again NPP was settled. The subject matter of the legal dispute was NPP's fee claims against the Company in the amount of EUR 45,500, which is approximately $48,160, plus interest. On November 28, 2022, the Company agreed to pay NPP an amount of EUR 22,749, which is approximately $23,214. The costs of the legal dispute were set off against each other in the settlement. There is still an outstanding fee claim against the Company according to an invoice dated January 25, 2023 in the amount of EUR 4,986, which is approximately $5,277.

Due to the nature of the Company's business, the Company may at times be subject to claims and legal actions. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred, and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date and the Company's estimates of the outcomes of these matters. Except as set forth above, as of December 31, 2022 we are not currently subject to any legal proceedings, nor to the knowledge of management are any legal proceedings threatened that are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

**PART II**

**ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.**

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Market under the symbol "EAWD" There is currently a limited market for our common stock and the volume of our common stock traded on any day may vary significantly from one day to another. Trading in stock quoted on the OTC Market's OTCQB is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. The availability of buyers and sellers represented by this volatility could lead to a market price for our common stock that is unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Market's OTCQB is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities quoted on the OTC Market's OTCQB is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a stock exchange like NASDAQ. There is no assurance that there will be a sufficient market in our stock, in which case it could be difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.

On March 28, 2023 , the closing price of our common stock was $0.04 per share as reported on the OTC QB Market maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc.

The following table sets forth for the respective periods indicated the prices of our common stock in this market as reported and summarized by the OTC Markets. Such prices are based on inter-dealer bid and asked prices, without markup, markdown, commissions, or adjustments and may not represent actual transactions.

**Penny Stock**

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, shareholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

**Holders**

As of December 31, 2022, we had 846 record holders of our common stock, holding 182,934,483 shares of common stock. The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of bank, brokers and other nominees.

**Dividends**

We have never declared nor paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and currently intend to retain all of our cash and any earnings for use in our business and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

**ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.**

**Introductory Statement**

*The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and information relating to our business that reflect our current views and assumptions with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.*

*These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any update or revisions of any of the forward-looking statements to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or to conform these statements to actual results.*

**Addressing Challenges Post-COVID-19 and the Current War in Ukraine**

COVID-19 is an incomparable global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry and has caused the worst global economic contraction of the past 80 years (IMF) and the current war in Ukraine has also caused significant changes in consumer behavior and purchasing patterns, supply chain routing, the dynamics of current market forces, and government oversight and intervention. Disruptive activities could include the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes, restrictions on the export or shipment of our products, significant cutback of ocean container delivery from Germany, business closures in impacted areas, and restrictions on our employees' and consultants' ability to travel and to meet with customers. The extent to which COVID-19 or the war in Ukraine impacts our results will depend on future developments, which still uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the current conflict as well as virus variants and the actions to contain it or treat its impact, among others. COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine could also continue to result in social, economic and labor instability in the countries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate.

If workers at one or more of our offices or the offices of our suppliers or manufacturers become ill or are quarantined and in either or both events are therefore unable to work, our operations could be subject to disruption. Further, if our manufacturers become unable to obtain necessary raw materials or components, we may incur higher supply costs or our manufacturers may be required to reduce production levels, either of which may negatively affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In light of these challenges, the Company is focusing its efforts on supporting key areas of our business that will help us to stabilize in the new environment and strategize for what comes next. Those key areas are: crisis management and response, workforce, operation and supply chain, finance and liquidity, tax, trade and regulatory, as well as strategy and brand.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements. Certain of these significant accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as defined below.

A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes: 1) we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and 2) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the financial statements as soon as they became known. Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and present a meaningful presentation of our financial condition and results of operations. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements:

***Risks and Uncertainties*** – The Company's business could be impacted by price pressure on its product manufacturing, acceptance of its products in the marketplace, new competitors, changes in federal and/or state legislation and other factors and new technology. If the Company is unsuccessful in securing adequate liquidity, its plans may be curtailed. Adverse changes in these areas could negatively impact the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

***Basis of Presentation***

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been reflected herein.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the useful life of property and equipment, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

***Leases***

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases ("ASC 842"). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity's ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable.

***Income Taxes***

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of the valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management's view it is more likely than not (50%) that such deferred tax will not be utilized.

ASC 740 provides interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Corporation could incur income taxes, the Corporation would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. A liability for uncertain tax positions would then be recorded if the Corporation determined it is more likely than not that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if a payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimable.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Corporation does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist that would result in the Corporation having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Corporation's policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively, in the statement of operations. The Corporation's tax returns for the years ended 2012 through 2020 are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities. The Corporation's tax returns for the tax year ended 2021 have not been filed.

We record our provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss by estimating our taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We estimate our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences arising from differing treatment of items recognized for financial reporting versus tax return purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets, which are included in our balance sheets. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws, or loss or credit carry forwards are utilized. Valuation allowances are recorded when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We make these estimates and judgments about our future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with our future plans. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had recorded a full valuation allowance on our U.S. net deferred tax assets because we expect that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Should the actual amounts differ from our estimates, the amount of our valuation allowance could be materially impacted.

***Revenue Recognition***

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*, the core principle of which 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $550,000 in revenue as a result of meeting the above criteria. The Company recognized no revenue during the year ended December 31, 2022.

 ****

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 – Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, customer/investor deposit have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

***Stock-Based Payments***

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2018-07 ("ASU 2018-07"), "Improvement to Nonemployee Share Based Payment Accounting", which expanded the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance was applied prospectively to all new awards granted after the date of adoption. In addition, the guidance was applied to all existing equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established under ASC 505-50 by the adoption date by remeasuring at fair value as of the adoption date and recording a cumulative effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit on January 1, 2019.

For the Company's equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established under ASC 505-50, the fair value on January 1, 2019, the adoption date, approximated the value assigned on December 31, 2018, therefore no cumulative adjustment to opening accumulated deficit was required.

Under the revised guidance, the accounting for awards issued to non-employees will be similar to the model for employee awards, except that ASU 2018-07:

● allows the Company to elect on an award-by-award basis to use the contractual term as the expected term assumption in the option pricing model, and

● the cost of the grant is recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the grantor had paid cash.

*Employee and Non-Employee Share Based Compensation*

The Company applies ASC 718-10, "Share - Based Payment," which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options under the Company's stock plans and equity awards issued to non-employees based on estimated fair values.

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The fair value of the award is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The Company recognizes share based award forfeitures as they occur.

The Company estimates the fair value of granted option equity awards using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of similar companies in the technology sector. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to employees and directors using the "simplified" method. Grants to non-employees are based on the contractual term. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity's own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer's Accounting for Certain Modification or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options ("ASU 2021-04"), which will clarify and reduce diversity in practice. Specifically, the new standard includes a recognition model comprising four categories of transactions and corresponding accounting treatment for each category. The category that would apply to a modification or an exchange of an equity-classified warrant would depend on the substance of the modification transaction (e.g., a financing transaction to raise equity versus one to raise debt). This recognition model is premised on the idea that the accounting for the transaction should not differ from what it would have been had the issuer of the warrants paid cash instead of modifying the warrants. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments" and ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief" which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, "Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)," which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered small reporting companies ("SRC") as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC, implementation is not needed until January 1, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

***Revenue***

During the year ended December 31, 2022 we generated no revenue. For the fiscal year 2021, the Company recognized $550,000 of revenue that was previously deferred in 2020, pending the inspection of equipment pursuant to a sales agreement. we generated no revenue.

***Cost of equipment sold***

No costs were recognized in fiscal year 2022. The equipment sold was manufactured by third-party fabricators in accordance with EAWD's specifications at a cost to EAWD of $350,000, which was recognized along with the revenue during the year ended December 31, 2021.

***Gross profit***

The Company had no gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022. EAWD recognized a gross profit of $200,000 from the sale of equipment as discussed above for the year ended December 31, 2021, upon recognition of revenue.

 ****

***General and Administrative Expense***

General and administrative expense increased by $773,093 or 67.9% to $1,910,888 for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $1,137,795 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The following discussion provides further explanation of the change in each item.

The largest element of change was an increase in other general and administrative expense by $444,129 or 199.9% to $666,358 as compared to $222,229 for the year ended December 31, 2021 which includes stock-based compensation expense of $80,000. Additionally, the increase in general and administrative expenses was due to an increase in officer's salaries and payroll taxes by $179,201 as new employee contracts were signed in 2022 increasing salary and an increase in professional fees of $77,937 as a result of higher accounting fees, litigation fees, legal fees and SEC matters.

***Other Expense***

Other expense decreased expense by $2,067,979 from a $2,099,671 net expense (2021) to a $31,692 net expense (2022) primarily as a result of a reduction of interest expense of $657,791 as a result of reduced interest and amortization of debt discount and a decrease in change in fair value of derivatives of $1,503,920, offset by an increase in other expense by $93,732.

***Net Loss***

 

Net loss decreased by $1,094,886 to $1,942,580 for the year ended December 31, 2022, when compared to $3,037,466 for the year ended December 31, 2021 due to the reasons discussed above.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

We had cash of $40,886 and a working capital deficit of $740,698 at December 31, 2022. Our operating and capital requirements in connection with supporting our operations will continue to be significant. Since inception, our losses from operations and working capital requirements have been satisfied through the deferral of payment for services performed by our founders and related parties discussed more fully below.

We have sustained operating losses since we began our operations in 2012. At December 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $24,337,973. The Company cannot predict how long it will continue to incur further losses or whether it will ever become profitable as this is dependent upon the reduction of certain expenses and success in obtaining project contracts, among other things. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

We have satisfied our cash and working capital requirements in the nine months ended December 31, 2022, through the sale of common stock.

***Cash Flows from Operating Activities***

We used $1,618,916 of cash in our operating activities in 2022 compared to $1,556,268 used in 2021. Cash used of $1,618,916 includes a net loss of $1,942,580, offset by non-cash expenses of $308,585 principally related to amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs of $93,986, stock issued as a commitment fee of $80,000, depreciation expense of $18,252, change in fair value of derivative liability of $234,654, foreign currency loss of $76,737, and common stock issued for services of $268,099, as well as cash used in working capital items in the amount of $15,079 principally related to an increase in inventory of $273,274 and a decrease in due to related party of $97,341, offset by an increase in due to officers of $199,986, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $90,524, a decrease in accounts receivable of $2,260, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $92,924.

***Cash Flows from Investing Activities***

We used $196,018 and $4,299 of cash to purchase property and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

***Cash Flows from Financing Activities***

We received $1,280,001 and $2,162,208 in cash from financing activities in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash flow from financing activities of $1,280,001 is primarily due to increased financing in 2022 through $1,252,001 in proceeds from the sale of shares and subscriptions to purchase common shares and $178,000 in proceeds from convertible loans payable, offset by repayments of convertible loans payable in the amount of $150,000.

**Financial Position**

***Total Assets*** – At December 31, 2022, the Company had $1,174,295 total assets representing $40,886 in cash, $52,761 in accounts receivable, $457,646 in inventory, $315,222 in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $245,667 in property and equipment, and $62,113 in operating lease right-of-use assets.

**PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING**

We expect to generate more revenues which should, grow in time and lead to a positive cash flow. In the near future, we expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through sales contracts, lines of credit, convertible loans and/or further issuances of other securities in sufficient quantities that we will be able to meet our working capital requirement from these possible sources. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt will result in dilution to our current shareholders.

We seek to focus on three main aspects of the water and energy business: (1) generation, (2) supply, and (3) maintenance. We seek to assist private companies, government entities and NGO's to build profitable and sustainable supplies/generation capabilities of water and energy as required, by selling them the required technology or technical service to enhance their productivity/operability. With its outsourced technical arm and its commission-based global network of vendors, the Company expects to create sustainable added value to each project it takes on while generating revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies; as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

Through our BlueTech Alliance for Water Generation, established in December 2020, we have state-of-the-art technology partners, technology transfer agreements, and technology representation agreements in place relating to aspects of renewable energy and water supply. These unique key relationships offer important selling features and capabilities that differentiated EAWD from its competitors.

The Company plans to generate revenue from the sale of EAWD Off-Grid AWG Systems, EAWD Off-Grid EV Charging Stations, EAWD Off-Grid Power Systems, and EAWD Off-Grid Water Purification Systems, royalties from the commercialization of energy and water in certain cases, and the licensing of our innovated technologies, as well as from its engineering, technical consulting, and project management services.

*Customer deposit*

EAWC-TV functions as a distributor of EAWD product. In 2019, EAWC-TV, having secured EAWD's first customer, has placed a $550,000 order for a solar powered atmospheric water generator ("AWG") for one of its customers. EAWC-TV and the Company on December 13, 2019 agreed to accept a $303,742 reduction in the balance owed by EAWD to EAWC-TV as a deposit with EAWD related to this order. The deposit was satisfied through delivery of the equipment when performance has occurred. The equipment was built in Germany.

In 2020, manufacture of the unit was delayed due to Covid-19 related issues. The Company and EAWC-TV agreed as it had done in 2019, to clear the outstanding balances in the D/T/F EAWC-TV and the outstanding balance it carried in its accounts payable account for administrative services, which it did on December 26, 2020 which resulted in an additional down payment of $193,497. EAWC-TV has an unpaid balance on the equipment of $52,761, which represents the balance of the Company's outstanding accounts receivables as of both December 31, 2022 and 2021. As of March 31, 2023, the total unpaid balance is outstanding, however, the Company is expected to receive the total amount by the end of 2023.

**Going Concern Qualification**

The next operational step to accomplish is to achieve sufficient sales volume to yield positive net income. Due to the timing of the project build out, the Company has not currently recorded any revenue and consequently has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $24,337,973 at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Corporation incurred net losses of $1,942,580. The Company also had a working capital deficit of $740,698 at December 31, 2022.

The Company's ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

At the filling date of this report, management is working to conclude the sales in Germany and in other regions of the world relating to the previously approved proposals, which would bring a growing revenue. Managements plans to expand the sales operations by greater market penetration of the agricultural, industrial and community development markets with its innovative water and energy generation solution. Management also plans to raise additional funds during 2022 through the issuance of equity securities, from deposits related to customer purchase orders, and, if necessary, loans from management and third-party lenders. Management also plans to reduce expenses by centralizing the assembly, logistics and administrative operations of the Company into a larger, self-sufficient, off-grid location that will be able to house the storage of supplies and inventory, as well as provide space for assembly and administrative operations. The Company is also planning to acquire its own electric vehicles to reduce its supply transportation costs.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

**Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements**

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements as discussed in Note 3 to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

WithumSmith+Brown, PC ("Withum") served as the independent registered public accounting firm for Energy and Water Development Company (the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2021, and reviewed the unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 respectively. After careful consideration of the ongoing audit needs of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company has elected to dismiss Withum. The Company notified Withum on October 22, 2021 that it would be dismissed as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, following the filing of the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Withum's report on the Company's financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except with respect to an explanatory paragraph indicating that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and the subsequent interim period through November 15, 2021, there were no (i) disagreements, within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Regulation S-K"), and the related instructions thereto, with Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Withum, would have caused Withum to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports; or (ii) reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto, except for the material weaknesses described in Item 9A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company provided Withum with the disclosures under this Item 4.01 and requested Withum to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Item 4.01 and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. Withum's letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 17, 2021.

On November 4, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the appointment of TAAD LLP. ("TAAD") as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's financials for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 and to review the company's unaudited quarterly financial information for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, effective immediately.

During the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, and the subsequent interim period through November 15, 2021, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with TAAD regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that TAAD concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions; or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d–15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the forms and rules of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO, in a manner to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10–K, our management, including the CEO and CFO (Principal Accounting Officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022. As described below, management has identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which is an integral component of our disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of those material weaknesses, our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

**Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The term "internal control over financial reporting" is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant's board of directors, management and other personnel, 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 and includes those policies and procedures that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;

· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and

· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrant's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. In addition, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.

As of December 31, 2022, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013) (COSO) and identified material weaknesses. Due to financial constraints, we have not fully implemented a remediation plan. A "material weakness" is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be presented or detected by our employees.

The specific material weaknesses that management identified in our internal controls as of December 31, 2022 are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Inadequate segregation of duties,

· Limited level of multiple reviews among those tasked with preparing the financial statements,

· Lack of a formal internal control environment.

We consider an incomplete governing board and transactions running through our executives as a failure of our internal control system. To remediate we will require the time and funds to secure additional qualified personnel and the funds to proper support services to facilitate their functions.

**Plans for Remediation of Material Weaknesses**

We intend to implement changes to strengthen our internal controls in addition to the enhanced controls discussed above. We are in the process of implementing a remediation plan for the identified material weaknesses and we expect that work on the plan will continue throughout 2022, as financial resources permit. Specifically, to address the material weaknesses arising from insufficient accounting personnel, the Company hired a part-time Chief Financial Officer and has secured the services of additional accounting personnel on a consulting basis which begins to address segregation of duties. The Company is currently formalizing its policies and procedures in writing and to improve the integration of its financial and reporting system into non accounting departments. Where appropriate, the Company is receiving advice and assistance from third-party experts as it implements and refines its remediation plan.

Additional measures may be necessary, and the measures we expect to take to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that such material weakness or other material weaknesses would not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Except as otherwise stated above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors during the quarter ended December 31, 2022, that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The Company is a non-accelerated filer and is not subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Accordingly, this Annual Report does not contain an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, since the rules for Smaller Reporting Companies provide for this exemption.

| Mr. Ralph Hofmeier | 59 | Chief Technology Officer, and Chairman of the Board of Directors |

\* Mr. Rodney resigned on January 18, 2023, and Mr. Amedeo Montonati was subsequently engaged as Chief Financial Officer on January 30, 2023.

Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of our directors and executive officers.

***Ms. Irma Velazquez*** brings to the Company her certified expertise of sustainable development and emerging technologies, along with her extensive experience and managerial skills on large-scale project management. Ms. Velazquez worked from 1997 to 2010 in United Nations agencies such as the World Health Organization, Farmaciens Sans Frontieres, Red Cross and Crescent Societies (IFRC) where she served in the positions of Information Technology Manager, Sustainable Development Manager and Programme Manager, leading the strategic development and execution of corporate vision for operations, communications, and marketing, as well as a Disaster & Crisis Management Coordinator, where she demonstrated the ability to govern complex programs and organizations, which drove development and implementation of business plans, operational structures, processes, and procedures. From 2012 to August 2022, Ms. Velazquez acted as Chief Operations Officer and Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors of EAWD. She is currently the Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. Ms. Velazquez has a Master in Sciences from the Erasmus University of Rotterdam**,** experience in diplomatic negotiations and proven experience building positive relationships with government entities, agencies, and private sector partners. Ms. Velazquez speaks French, English and Spanish.

***Mr. Ralph Hofmeier*** has a mechanical engineering background. He has worked in companies such as Powermax Energy & Business Solutions Inc., where from 2003 to 2008 he served as President. From the merger of that company with EAWD in 2008 until August 2022, he served as President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of EAWD. He is currently the Chief Technology Officer and remains the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Hofmeier speaks German and English.

Over the last 20 years, Mr. Hofmeier has established and developed several multinational companies in green tech distribution and commercialization, such as Powermax LLC, Powermax Inc and Powermax GmbH. With a solid track record of investment and financial joint ventures and his prior multicultural experience throughout the European and American markets, we believe that Mr. Hofmeier brings our Board and our Company a clear vision of business development, investor relations and joint ventures.

***Mr. Gary Rodney*** agreed to provide services to the Company as its Interim Chief Financial Officer as an independent contractor. Pursuant to his consulting agreement, Mr. Rodney receives a monthly fee of $7,000. The consulting agreement has an initial term of one (1) year and is automatically renewed for successive one-year terms unless either party delivers timely notice of its intention not to renew. Mr. Rodney has resigned as Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the consulting agreement with InfoQuest Technologies Inc. has been terminated.

***Mr. Amedeo Montonati*** has recently joined the Company as Chief Financial Officer. Prior to taking this position, Mr. Montonati was a Senior Administrative Consultant at Hawksford Group in Hong Kong from 2018 to 2021 and since then has served as an associate director at AOGB Professional Services Group and as Interim CFO at Brera Holdings PLC. Mr. Montonati holds an MBA from University of South Australia, Hong Kong.

**Family Relationships**

Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez are married.

**Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings**

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or officers, during the past ten years has:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

· had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which the person was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;

· been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, the person's involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or been associated with persons engaged in any such activity;

· been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

· been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

· been the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

Except as set forth in our discussions in this Report, none of our directors or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

**Term of Office**

Directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and hold office until removed by the Board of Directors.

**Board Committees and Corporate Governance**

Our Board of Directors currently has no separate committees, and our board of directors acts as the audit committee and the compensation committee. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board because we do not currently have any independent directors and our Board believes that the establishment of committees of our Board would not provide any benefits to our Company and could be considered more form than substance. We do not have yet, an audit committee financial expert serving on our board of directors.

**Shareholder Communications**

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding communications with the Board, shareholders may communicate with the Board by writing to us at 7901 4<sup>th</sup> Street N STE #4174, St Petersburg, Florida 33072, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or by facsimile (727) 677-9408 or email to investor.relations@energy-water.com The envelope or subject line should indicate that it contains a stockholder communication.

Shareholders who would like their submission directed to a member of the board may so specify, and the communication will be forwarded, as appropriate.

**Oversight of Risk Management**

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including economic risks, financial risks, legal and regulatory risks and others, such as the impact of competition. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks that we face, while our Board has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our Board of Directors is responsible for satisfying itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. Our Board of Directors assesses major risks facing our Company and options for their mitigation in order to promote our stockholders' interests in the long-term health of our Company and our overall success and financial strength. A fundamental part of risk management is not only understanding the risks a company faces and what steps management is taking to manage those risks, but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for us. The involvement of our full Board of Directors in the risk oversight process allows our Board of Directors to assess management's appetite for risk and also determine what constitutes an appropriate level of risk for our Company. Our Board of Directors regularly includes agenda items at its meetings relating to its risk oversight role and meets with various members of management on a range of topics, including corporate governance and regulatory obligations, operations and significant transactions, risk management, insurance, pending and threatened litigation and significant commercial disputes.

**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics**

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of ethical conduct that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and senior financial management. This code of ethical conduct is embodied within our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all persons associated with our Company, including our directors, officers and employees (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller). In order to satisfy our disclosure requirements under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K, we will disclose amendments to, or waivers of, certain provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics relating to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief accounting officer, controller or persons performing similar functions on our website promptly following the adoption of any such amendment or waiver.

**DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS**

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock to file with the SEC the initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%) stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Specific due dates for such reports have been established by the SEC, and the Company is required to disclose in this Report any failure to file reports by such dates during fiscal year 2020. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we believe that all reports required to be filed by such persons pursuant to Section 16(a) were filed on a timely basis, with the exception of our officers, directors and greater than 10 percent (10%) beneficial owners listed in the table below:

Mr. Hofmeier and Ms. Velazquez are also significant stockholders.

**Customer deposit**

EAWC-TV functions as a distributor of EAWD product. In 2019, EAWC-TV, having secured EAWD's first customer, has placed a $550,000 order for a solar powered EAWD Off-Grid AWG System for one of its customers. EAWC-TV and the Company on December 13, 2019 agreed to accept a $303,742 reduction in the balance owed by EAWD to EAWC-TV as a deposit with EAWD related to this order. The deposit was satisfied through delivery of the equipment. The equipment was built in Germany.

In 2020, manufacture of the unit was delayed due to Covid-19 related issues. The Company and EAWC-TV agreed as it had done in 2019, to clear the outstanding balances in the D/T/F EAWC-TV and the outstanding balance it carried in its accounts payable account for administrative services, which it did on December 26, 2020 which resulted in an additional down payment of $193,497. EAWC-TV has an unpaid balance on the equipment of $52,761 and 55,169 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which represents the balance of the Company's outstanding accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Ralph Hofmeier owns 5% of the issued and outstanding stock of EAWC-TV and, other than the right to vote on issues presented to stockholders, he has no control over the management or operations of the company. As of March 31, 2023, the unpaid balance remains outstanding, however, the Company is expected to receive the total amount by the end of 2023.

**Related Person Transaction Policy**

Our Board considers and approves or disapproves any related person transaction. The Company's written policies and procedures on related party transactions cover any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which: (i) the Company (or any subsidiary) is a participant; (ii) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest; and (iii) the aggregate amount involved (including any interest payable with respect to indebtedness) will or may be expected to exceed $120,000, except that there is no $120,000 threshold for members of the audit committee (if any). A related party is any: (i) person who is or was (since the beginning of the two fiscal years preceding the last fiscal year, even if they do not presently serve in that role) an executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director; (ii) greater than five percent (5%) beneficial owner of the Company's common stock; or (iii) immediate family member of any of the foregoing. An immediate family member includes a person's spouse, parents, stepparents, children, stepchildren, siblings, mothers- and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the same household as such person.

In determining whether to approve or ratify a related party transaction, the Board, or disinterested directors, as applicable, will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate: (i) whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; (ii) the nature and extent of the related party's interest in the transaction; (iii) the material terms of the transactions; (iv) the importance of the transaction both to the Company and to the related party; (v) in the case of a transaction involving an executive officer or director, whether the transaction would interfere with the performance of such person's duties to the Company; and (vi) in the case of a transaction involving a non-employee director or a nominee for election as a non-employee director (or their immediate family member), whether the transaction would disqualify the director or nominee from being deemed an "independent" director, and whether the transaction would disqualify the individual from serving on the audit committee or the compensation committee (if any) or other committees of the Board under applicable exchange and other regulatory requirements.

The Board only approves those related party transactions that are on terms comparable to, or more beneficial to us than, those that could be obtained in arm's length dealings with an unrelated third party.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

**Going Concern Matter**

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financials do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matters**

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

<u>Convertible Loan Payables</u>

<u>Description of the Matter</u>

As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had various debt instruments which included conversion features requiring bifurcation and separate accounting. Management evaluated the required accounting, significant estimates, and judgments around the valuation for these embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives were initially measured at fair value and have subsequently been remeasured to fair value at each reporting period and at settlement.

There is no current observable market for these types of features and, as such, the Company determined the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a Black-Scholes model to measure the fair value of the bifurcated derivative. As a result, a high degree of auditor judgment and effort was required in performing audit procedures to evaluate the conclusions reached by management, as well as the inputs to the Company's Black-Scholes model.

<u>How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit</u>

Our principal audit procedures performed to the address the critical audit matter included the following:

· We obtained an understanding of the controls and processes surrounding the evaluation, initial measurement,
and revaluation of the bifurcated derivatives.

· We verified the note amount, interest rate, and maturity date to the supporting documentation and debt
agreement, and examined terms and conditions of the note and confirmed the ending balance to the note holder.

· We evaluated management's assessment and the conclusions reached to ensure these instruments were
recorded in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance.

· We evaluated the fair value of the bifurcated derivatives that included testing the valuation models and
assumptions utilized by management. We reviewed and tested the fair value model used, significant assumptions, and underlying data used
in the model.

· We considered the adequacy of the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements in relation to
convertible debt.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2021.

**Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary**<br>**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**<br>

**Note 1. Incorporation and Nature of Operations**

Energy and Water Development Corp. (the "Corporation", "Company" or "EAWD"), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on December 12, 2007. In September 2019, the Company changed its name from Eurosport Active World Corp. to Energy and Water Development Corp. to better present the Company's purpose and business sector. We are an engineering services company formed as an outsourcing green tech platform, seeking to exploit renewable energy and water technologies.

On May 7th, 2021, the Company established an official Branch to initiate operations and assist on the establishment of an official subsidiary. On November 9, 2021, the Company established an official Subsidiary of EAWD in Germany to ensure the company is positioned to service its growing business in one of the EU's most environmentally progressive countries. This subsidiary was incorporated under the name of Energy and Water development Deutschland GmbH ("EAWD Deutschland"), in Hamburg, Germany.

On May 19, 2022, the Company initiated the process for the establishment of an additional Subsidiary of EAWD in Germany to provide logistics services for EAWD Deutschland. This subsidiary has been now fully incorporated under the name of EAWD Logistik GmbH ("EAWD Logistik"), in Frankfurt, Germany.

**Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** 

*Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation*

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EAWD and its subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been reflected herein.

*Foreign currency translation*

The United States dollar ("USD") is the Company's reporting currency. The Company has a subsidiary located in Germany. The net sales generated, and the related expenses directly incurred from the operations, if any, are denominated in local currency, Euro ("Euro"). The functional currency of the subsidiary is generally the same as the local currency.

Assets and liabilities measured in Euros are translated into USD at the prevailing exchange rates in effect as of the financial statement date and the related gains and losses, net of applicable deferred income taxes, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in its balance sheets. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company used a spot rate of 1.07 and an average rate of 1.05 when converting EURO to USD.

*Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates which are particularly significant to the financial statements include estimates relating to the determination of impairment of assets, assessment of going concern, the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation, and the recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

**Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary**<br>**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**<br>

*Leases*

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842- Leases ("ASC 842"). The lease standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients. As such, the Company did not have to reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease; did not have to reassess the lease classifications or reassess the initial direct costs associated with expired or existing leases. The lease standard also provides practical expedients for an entity's ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption under which the Company will not recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain classes of assets (facilities).

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. The Company does not have operating or financing leases.

*Cash*

The Company considers short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has $40,886 and $589,668 cash at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

*Inventory*

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. A reserve is established if necessary to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.

*Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets*

 

Prepaid expenses and other current assets include purchase deposits, miscellaneous prepaid expenses, value added tax receivable, and a security deposit.

*Property and Equipment*

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset's estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company's property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company's Property and Equipment are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Useful Life (in years)** |
| Office equipment | 5 |
| Furniture and fixtures | 7 |
| Automobile | 5 |
| Machinery and equipment | 5 |

---

*Deferred Financing Costs*

The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities. These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, unamortized deferred financing costs were $0 and $6,663, respectively and are netted against the related debt.

**Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary**<br>**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**<br>

 

*Fair Value of Financial Instruments*

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 – Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data,

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

The application of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10-35, our derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, were $184,025 and $354,160, respectively and measured on Level 3 inputs.

Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company adjusts derivative financial instruments to fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value for other assets and liabilities such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses have been determined to approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

*Income Taxes*

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of the valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management's view it is more likely than not (50%) that such deferred tax will not be utilized.

ASC 740 provides interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Corporation could incur income taxes, the Corporation would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. A liability for uncertain tax positions would then be recorded if the Corporation determined it is more likely than not that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if a payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimable.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Corporation does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist that would result in the Corporation having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Corporation's policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively, in the statement of operations. The Corporation's tax returns for the years ended 2012 through 2021 have been filed and are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities. The Corporation's tax returns for the tax year ended 2022 have not been filed.

**Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary**<br>**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**<br>

 

*Revenue Recognition*

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*, the core principle of which 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $0 and $550,000 in revenue as a result of meeting the above criteria.

During 2021, the Company completed its first sale of equipment. Upon approval of the inspection of the equipment by the customer, the Company recognized the revenue as it had met the revenue recognition criteria and had satisfied the performance obligation of the contract through acceptance by the customer. During the year ended December 31, 2021, one customer accounted for 100% of the revenue.

*Loss Per Common Share*

The Corporation accounts for earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10*, "Earnings Per Share",* which establishes the requirements for presenting earnings per share ("EPS"). FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10 requires the presentation of "basic" and "diluted" EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS amounts are calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the exercise of all stock options, warrants and convertible securities having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the periods, using the treasury stock method. When a loss from operations exists, potential common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their inclusion would result in an anti-dilutive effect on per share amounts.

As discussed more fully in Note 10, convertible note holders have the option of converting their loans into common shares subject to the terms and features offered by the specific convertible notes. Some note holders were also granted purchase options to purchase additional shares subject to the features of each purchase option. If the convertible note holders of unexercised convertible notes exercised their conversion feature and the additional purchase options, they would represent 8,317,828 and 2,406,227 in additional common shares at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The potential shares from both the conversion feature and the rights to purchase additional shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive.

*Related Party Transactions*

A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. A related party is generally defined as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any person that holds 5% or more of the Company's securities including such person's immediate families,

(ii) the Company's management,

(iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or

(iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company.

**Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Corporation's future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity's own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer's Accounting for Certain Modification or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options ("ASU 2021-04"), which will clarify and reduce diversity in practice. Specifically, the new standard includes a recognition model comprising four categories of transactions and corresponding accounting treatment for each category. The category that would apply to a modification or an exchange of an equity-classified warrant would depend on the substance of the modification transaction (e.g., a financing transaction to raise equity versus one to raise debt). This recognition model is premised on the idea that the accounting for the transaction should not differ from what it would have been had the issuer of the warrants paid cash instead of modifying the warrants. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments" and ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief" which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, "Financial Instruments - Credit Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)," which defers the effective date for public filers that are considered small reporting companies ("SRC") as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC, implementation is not needed until January 1, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. The adoption will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Note 4. Going Concern**

The Company has incurred operating losses since it began operations (December 2012) totaling $24,337,973 at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Corporation incurred net losses of $1,942,580. The Company had a working capital deficit of $740,698 at December 31, 2022.

The Company's ability to transition to profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support its cost structure. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business and availability to sufficient resources.

Management expects sales operations to continue to expand. If necessary, the Company will need to raise additional funds during 2022. Management of the Company intends to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities or debt, credit lines or advances from suppliers. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sales or obtain additional funding to finance operating losses until the Corporation is profitable.

**Energy and Water Development Corp. and Subsidiary**<br>**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**<br>

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

*Derivative Liabilities*

The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company's authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion options and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.

Based on the various convertible notes described above, the fair value of applicable derivative liabilities on notes and change in fair value of derivative liability are as follows as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

The fair value accounting standards define fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are rated on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

· Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

· Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a gain of $234,654 and a loss of $1,269,266, respectively, from the change in fair value of derivative liability.

The Company did not have an income tax provision or benefit for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
